The goal is to burn down western civilization. These are truly evil people.
Shot through the heart
And I know who to blame
CRT came from Critical Social theory a marxist text as with the rest of marxism, written for the purpose of destroying the west.
The O-Biden administration has been aggressively attacking free market capitalism as they pursue their goal of transforming this country into a Marxist based socialist country. Everything they do is right out of the Marxist playbook. They started on day one to put our economy in the dirt, starting with the frontal attack on energy production and distribution. That sowed the seeds of inflation, and it’s been downhill from there.
Marxists can be counted on to not only attack our free market economy, they have also attacked our religion (Marxism is to be the religion), our historical icons like the Founding Fathers (Marx and Lenin are to be our idols), and the list goes on. The environmental movement is the new home of Marxism. They use the environment as an excuse to pursue their Marxist agenda. Khrushchev in his 1959 speech said their would be a gradual move to communism and a socialist state without firing a shot. I fear he may have been right.
Thanks. The book and author sound like a valuable contribution. It isn’t clear from the article description if the book covers this, but don’t leave out the media’s role in the destruction of the west. “Respectable” media voices made the destruction possible by hiding or explaining away the left’s crimes, while giving the left a megaphone to bombard us with their unchallenged messages of hate that found fertile ground in the weak-minded.
The Left’s biggest “accomplishments” have been dumbing down the populace, degrading our culture, and eroding the underpinnings and principles of a once great country. That was the foundation they needed to do everything else.
“—An America shot through with Marxism—
I totally agree. I also think that now we are fully into a post-Constitutional age and a very dis-united nation, we should change the very untruthful name from,
The United States of America
to something that that more truthfully reflects what we are as a people. Maybe the SSA.
The Socialist States of America.
You have to admit it is not only fitting, but has a very modern ring to it.
Free trade with a communist nation and offshoring of vital industry. The rest was easy.
Yuri Bezmenov warned us.
They followed Gramsci’s advice to take the “long march through the institutions” and they’ve achieved spectacular success in doing so.
I can’t think of a single institution that they don’t control.
Here’s an excellent video covering that.

“He then demonstrates how the radical left actually managed to capture the institutions — by using tactics all too familiar to the modern American reader. They bullied, harassed, threatened, and committed violence against anyone who posed a threat to their ideology (namely, prominent conservative speakers) and installed pseudo-intellectuals in positions of authority on college campuses, while also creating entire fields of study out of whole cloth — fields that had no intellectual value at all and were purely driven by left-wing politics, like gender studies and black studies.”
He missed the most important aspect of their strategy - capturing the high moral ground. They always managed to paint themselves as the defenders of the downtrodden, the poor, the blacks, mother earth - all the “oppresseds”. And they were able to sell their propaganda to millions of soft-hearted and soft-minded useful idiots thus gaining popular support.
And that strategy is still working like a charm today with no effective strategy on the right to dislodge them from their moral high ground.
It goes back a lot farther, to the days of the Soviet Revolution over a hundred years ago, aided by the socialist Fabian Society in England and the Socialist International insurgents. Slowly at first; gaining U.S. operatives during the Depression and its aftermath, picking up speed during the FDR years, and taking over universities and media since WW2.
An excellent history of communist incursion into the U.S. can be read in Fabian Freeway: High Road to Socialism in the U.S.A. by Rose L. Martin, a 1964 book so powerful it was suppressed and out of print for many years until recently.
