Socialists as White Saviors

Once upon a time Marxism was a revolutionary economic program, but as the 20th century progressed into the 21st, Marxist thought crept into a great many other political programs and fields of political thought. Furthermore, anyone who knows anything about communist societies knows that the totalitarian social controls within those societies extend well beyond the mere economic. Astute Westerners recognize noneconomic Marxist thought as being the source of, or at the very least inseparable from, matters as diverse as radical feminism, political correctness, cultural Marxism, modern progressivism, and social justice, to name just a few.

Thus, at this stage in history, there is almost no separating Marxist thinking on economics from Marxist thinking on race (race egalitarianism, anti-asperism), culture (cultural determinism), national sovereignty (open borders, globalism), sex (feminism and transgenderism), and virtually everything else. The left has successfully merged traditional Marxist economic thought with its largely noneconomic offshoots. It has traded the revolution of the penniless masses against the bourgeois oppressor for the revolution of the nonwhite masses against the white oppressor. The result is that when socialists today speak of liberating the downtrodden and the powerless, there is an unmistakable racial dimension.

Now, if you have been paying attention, you will have noticed that in recent years the political left has been waging a crusade against “white saviors” in their midst, white saviors being those whites who believe it their natural-born duty to save nonwhites from all that hurts and hampers them in modern society. This anti-savior campaign represents a palpable irony, however. After all, isn’t this white savior complex exactly what motivates virtually every white leftist to become a leftist in the first place?

I always start with “define white”

One side has skin in the game i.e., property owners, land lords, patriots small/big business owners etc.; the other side big government, unions, anarchists, want what the other side has but not working for or paying for it.

Thinking once they gain power, all will run smoothly. Without qualified people in place to run the economy...the infrastructures; jobs/payrolls; the military and on and on and on...the anarchists start eating themselves and chaos is the result.
