Oddbean new post about login | logout I want to try to understand the rest of the people around me and where they get their ideas from. I feel like a space alien trying to understand this species.
It's all coming from cultural Marxism, aka Identity Politics. Listen to James Lindsay's "New Discourses" podcast. He's digging modern Marcism deep, existing and decoding it all. Three podcast is on Rumble, Youtube and Odysee, plus he runs NewDiscourses.com
I'm quite familiar with Lindsay. I think most of the cultural Marxism / identity politics is coming from the base - bottom-up - and the majority of the politicians are run of the mill Statist pieces of garbage who will say whatever it takes to appease people while also robbing and manipulating them (and if they are a little cozy with dangerous ideas on any political extreme... Well they'll entertain it because it gets votes. And hm maybe that's working well enough that they'll do more than be cozy and instead nudge it top-down a bit..) But I don't think that stuff is starting from the top. The electorate are just tripping over themselves to get a paternal apparatus above them to weild coercive power against anything they don't like and they'll project their own ideologies onto the charletons on stage. TL;DR: I don't think Harris is a Marxist and I don't think Trump is a racist. But a Marxist pleb will vote for Harris and a racist pleb will vote for Trump.
Harris is 100% a Marxist. The Marxists have the top-down, bottom-up, inside-out gameplay. The UN is pushing it (Marxist agenda) everywhere... The UN 17 sustainability goals in Marxist think means a society that sustains communism. In Klaus's "Great Reset" he tells us what top-down, bottom-up, inside-out is. Top down is through government and and large institutions. DEI.. emotional resiliencs.. Bottom-up is through education, with fungus on indoctrination of children. It's even hitting red staffed hard.SEL, CSE, DEI... Inside-Out is through religion. The UN is working hard with world religions to get congregations on board with the UN's communist sustainability goals.
And Marxists are racists. They're anti-white racists. Marxist critcal race theory. Marxist decolonization theory. It's all racism in the name of attempting to generate revolutionary energy to bring the inner circle of Marxists to power.
