How Marxism became racism

by Lewis Loflin

Wikipedia defines pseudoreligion (or pseudotheology) as "a generally pejorative term applied to a non-mainstream belief system or philosophy which is functionally similar to religious practices..."

Marxism in its various forms have led to the deaths of perhaps 200 million people in the 20th century. Its roots are in the leftist' French Revolution and the Jacobins, the first modern example of a secular government committing state-sanctioned murder. Jean-Jacques Rousseau invented the term "the general will" referring to the desire or interest of a people as a whole and often "associated with socialist traditions in politics." Rousseau was somewhat a mystic and this idea is ill defined, but have no doubt the welfare of the individual is subordinate to the "will" of the masses.

One would do well to study Rousseau because he is everywhere around us. In his "The Discourse on the Origin of Inequality" to quote, "that human beings are basically good by nature, but were corrupted by the complex historical events that resulted in present day civil society." Thus the secular "Original Sin" is the fault of society, not human weakness. Society is broke and must be "fixed."

And his "Emile" or "On Education" he concocted the idea "that the goal of education should be to cultivate our natural tendencies...of ensuring that the pupil's character be developed in such a way as to have a healthy sense of self-worth and morality." (indoctrination) He rejected the teaching of science, history, etc. He was a direct influence on socialist John Dewey, the father of our failed modern education system and it's insistence on "outcome." The concept of the "noble savage," the Romance period in literature, and modern even modern environmentalism can be traced back to Rousseau, whom some considered a madman.

Nearly all of these people of the French Enlightenment and the violence it produced under the French Revolution were atheist, agnostic, or at the very least anti-Christian. The French Enlightenment and its offshoots sought a new society based on a total destruction of all traditional values and beliefs. What these "atheist" types do is develop a new religion or ideology to substitute for the one they sought to destroy. (Christianity) They are just as "fundamentalist" as the most fanatical Muslim or Christian. Their god becomes the state and the state overrules all, and they are the state's "prophets." The state is the collective "general will" and those outside the state are the enemy. The beheadings and show trials during the Reign of Terror mirrored the Christian Inquisition of earlier times.

This was the belief of "Progressives" the ancestors of modern liberalism. H.G. Wells coined the term "liberal fascists." To quote Wells in a speech given to the Young Liberals at Oxford in 1932, "Progressives must become liberal fascists and enlightened Nazis." This is nonsense that fills the minds of those in our elite colleges. And fascism and socialism are really the same thing in practical terms. Nazi means National Socialist German Worker' party and Mussolini was a former communist. Our form today is milder, preferring to "remake" society by destroying it from the inside.

Marxism and other secular "isms" in their various forms are a failure and are discredited. It has mutated to a new form, employing the same us versus them mentality. It's not workers versus the factory owner, but western culture in total that is evil versus the world. The down-trodden are there not because they are stupid, lazy, or unable to succeed on their own, but because they are exploited and held down, so we must put an end to what George Soros calls "excessive individualism." (Ref. "The Capitalist Threat" by George Soros Atlantic Monthly, Volume 279, No. 2, February 1997) They applied this pseudo-religious dogma to race.

Paul Baran is the author of The Political Economy of Growth (Monthly Review Press, 1957). For the first time in Marxist literature, Baran propounded a causal connection between the prosperity of the advanced capitalist countries (white for the most part) and the impoverishment of the Third World. (non-white) Prior to Baran, no Marxist had ever suspected that capitalism was the cause of the poverty of the rest of the world. (or in the case of America, it went along racial lines.) So what got was from class to race. In fact it became anti-Semitic as well seeing anyone having any success as somehow evil turned on Jews, who often invented this nonsense. So all of the world's problems are not because of internal problems in a group be it racial or another country, but because white racism, internal and external, caused it. Only socialism can fix it and we have faith in socialism.

According to the left, failure and inequality of blacks and Hispanics in America is the fault of society (racism), not their own actions. Charges of racism are merely part of a concerted effort by the far-left to destroy society. But what if society is not at fault, then the "state" can't "fix" the problem, then who needs the all powerful Marxist' style state?

Most of the press and the liberal elite in this country are brainwashed in our top universities with the nonsense of Rousseau, Marx, and Dewey. They see everything in terns of conflict, victims, and exploiters. They must remake society and end "excessive individualism" for national collectivism or general will. They do not believe in individual autonomy or individual responsibility. They believe society must be controlled in every aspect to enforce this "general will." That is why blacks and Hispanics and other multi-generational groups of failures (including some whites in Appalachia) can't be blamed for their condition. But the double standard is everywhere: David Duke is a racist because he is white, while Obama's Reverend Wright and Louis Farrakhan are not because they are "victims." A victim is responsible for nothing. They are all racists to me.

So Marxism in its new form of modern liberalism or liberal fascism is a pseudoreligion to its followers. To these "useful idiots," these beliefs are articles of secular faith. If the "faith" can preached loud enough, long enough, and they can silence the skeptics, then the faith will be the truth. All tyrannies practice this be they secular or religious. That is the point of political correctness, in the past known as censorship and propaganda. The new trinity of the leftist' cult is Diversity, Multiculturalism, and Affirmative Action. I call this anti-white racism.

To quote one opinion,

Scientists and Educators are beginning to realize that low intelligence is possibly due to genetic inheritance of historically low African American IQ levels... Some have suggested intermarriage with whites to raise black IQ levels, but many in both groups have found this to be a distasteful solution with fascist underpinnings. So, it is generally opposed. This leaves African Americans with a permanently low IQ with no hope of remediation, because IQ is not a function of education. The tragedy is found in the mere 17%-25% graduation rates in African American high school statistics as children with low IQ who are forced to act as though they have high IQ predictably fail, giving them feelings of low self-esteem and worthlessness, and may precipitate their later tendency toward violent criminal behavior.

The New York Times raises this alarm as well that IQ is genetic and not just cultural. In In DNA Era, New Worries About Prejudice (New York Times Nov. 11, 2007) the PC police are already going into panic mode. To quote,

Such developments are providing some of the first tangible benefits of the genetic revolution. Yet some social critics fear they may also be giving long-discredited racial prejudices a new potency. The notion that race is more than skin deep, they fear, could undermine principles of equal treatment and opportunity that have relied on the presumption that we are all fundamentally equal...We will all be walking a fine line between using biology and allowing it to be abused...

Just the existence of such genetic differences between races...means "the egalitarian theory," that all races are equal, is proven false...many geneticists, wary of fueling discrimination and worried that speaking openly about race could endanger support for their research, are loath to discuss the social implications of their findings...There are clear differences between people of different continental ancestries, said Marcus W. Feldman, a professor of biological sciences at Stanford University. It's not there yet for things like I.Q., but I can see it coming. And it has the potential to spark a new era of racism if we do not start explaining it better."

...the conversation is already flashing forward to what might happen if genetically encoded racial differences in socially desirable - or undesirable - traits are identified. If I were to believe the 'facts' in this post, what should I do? Should I advocate discrimination against blacks because they are less smart? Should I not hire them to my company because odds are I could find a smarter white person? Stop trying to prove that one group of people are genetically inferior to your group. Just stop...African-Americans have lately been discussing opting out of genetic research until it's clear we're not going to use science to validate prejudices...Such discussions are among thousands that followed the geneticist James D. Watson's assertion last month that Africans are innately less intelligent than other races. Dr. Watson, a Nobel Prize winner, subsequently apologized and quit his post at the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory on Long Island.

But the incident has added to uneasiness about whether society is prepared to handle the consequences of science that may eventually reveal appreciable differences between races in the genes that influence socially important traits. New genetic information, some liberal critics say, could become the latest rallying point for a conservative political camp that objects to social policies like affirmative action, as happened with "The Bell Curve," the controversial 1994 book that examined the relationship between race and I.Q. Yet even some self-described liberals argue that accepting that there may be genetic differences between races is important in preparing to address them politically...

Let's say the genetic data says we'll have to spend two times as much for every black child to close the achievement gap," said Jason Malloy, 28, an artist in Madison, Wis., who wrote a defense of Dr. Watson for the widely read science blog Gene Expression. Society, he said, would need to consider how individuals 'can be given educational and occupational opportunities that work best for their unique talents and limitations...

But does that mean they again silence proof that undermines what might be only wishful thinking? If the genetic link for IQ is proven, then the entire left-wing race agenda is undermined. And we already have racism against whites because of black and Hispanic failure which at minimum is their own fault if culture, and just reality if genetic. Whites today are constantly penalized and attacked for non-existent crimes most never committed even if true. Black IQ is 85, Hispanic is about 90 as are American Indians north and south of the border. Thomas Sowell believes the IQ problem is culture and cites some valid examples. The problem that remains is IQ gap, which immigration isn't helping as Asians cause the same problems for both Hispanics and blacks that whites do. Are Asians going the be targeted as the next "racist" group by the left? They are already barred from affirmative actions just like whites. To quote another writer,

(data)...shows that European Americans are not the smartest people in America is the fact that the Asian Americans are smarter as a group than European Americans. Asians have an IQ of 103 IQ compared to 100 IQ for European Americans. Jews are the very highest. Jews have an IQ of 115 points. Probably as a result of their higher IQ, Jews have been the most productive people in the world for the size of their population. [If Hitler had utilized the Jews in Germany, he would have won World War Two. Einstein, Oppenheimer, Ferme, and Teller, who were Jews, developed the atomic and hydrogen bombs that ended World War Two and kept the United States and Europe secure since 1945 when the first atomic bomb, developed in large part by brilliant, high IQ Jewish scientists, was exploded on Hiroshima.]
