  • Douglas Murray shows how the people who are always in favour of the latest woke doctrine are the same people who wanted to bring down Western Capitalism in days gone by. Unregenerate Marxists. You'll find plenty of them in the academy according to Douglas.

      trumps insane base 1) he is not censored and most commentators are - surely you know this? 2) and Islam has not taken out a fatwah on him. He is controlled opposition in some respects. DM Sam Harris, and the Jew Pinkerton. All so awfully nice. But as a country and the west as a whole is getting fucked. Being nice won’t work. Purple pros won’t stop Islam. He just makes liberals feel like they are doing something. It’s like netting fog. 16 Muslim police in Yorkshire were charged with fucking children. Did you see that? 2 days ago an 11 year old whose mother died and was taken into care was fucked 500 times by Muslims. I could go on. Being nice won’t work. They ALL need to be deported. According to MI5 they are monitoring 28,000 budding terrorists in the UK. The Dutch army is 21,000! We have a 5th column in our country. I think we have a VERY BIG PROBLEM. Writing books and giving cosy fire-side chats will do what...exactly? Hope that speck of data helps. All the best...

      Anybody using the term cultural marxism is a shill, a Social engineer , the so called left that has been engineered by the USA and west are anything but left, At the beginning, immigration was a phenomenon linked to big business. It still continues to be that way. Those who clamor for always more immigration are big companies. This immigration is in accordance with the very spirit of capitalism, which aims at the erasure of borders (« laissez faire, laissez passer »). “While obeying the logic of social dumping, Balssa continues, a “low cost” labor market has thus been created with the “undocumented” and the “low-skilled,” functioning as stopgap “jack of all trades.” Thus, big business has reached its hand to the far-left, the former aiming at dismantling of the welfare state, considered to be too costly, the latter killing off the nation-state considered to be too archaic.” This is the reason why the French Communist Part (PCF) and the French Trade Union (CGT) (which have radically changed since then) had, until 1981, battled against the liberal principle of open borders, in the name of the defense of the working class interests. Alain De Benoist

      ​@joe buffalo marxism is an ideology whose central strategy is to divide and conquer. It promises a utopia - a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow that can never be reached. But ignorant and gullible people - useful idiots - are easily convinced, seduced, decieved, fooled, persuaded, and thusly gradually mind-conditioned aka brain-washed to believe and behave as marxist-reactionaries aka pavlovian dogs. Marxism tried and failed to destroy free market capitalism and its attendant political cohort democratic-republicanism aka majority rule through expressed and representative rule of a populace, by dividing classes aka class-warfare. Its antecedent response to its failure wasnt to analyze itself and admit that marxism is a fundementally flawed and bankrupt ideology, a fantasy built on myriad lie upon lie, whose economic suppositions, and presuppositions are thoroughly false, wrong, and only spiral down with impoverishment, destruction, and mass-murder. Cultural-marxism was the adaptation pitting identity groups and alignments of groups to again attack the existing social structure of western-civilization in order to destroy it and bring in the fantasy utopia- a much better society/civilization in all respects. CM is marxism, a cult built on lies, very complex ideology , seductive, that has proven very very good at destruction and destroying its targets. But instead of heaven it CA ONLY DELIVER hell. Ussr, cuba, vz, chinese dictators, gulags, genocide, mass murder, death, torture, destruction, starvation, imprisonment to control, etc, is all that marxism has ever or can ever deliver. Which is precisely why marxists of any brand must be fought and defeated at all costs. Marxist are serious, will never stop aka admit truth, and cannot be easily changed in their minds. They will either destroy you or you will destroy them. Its ultimately a death cult- or satanic tool- only rivaled by the other equally big lie tool called islum.

      The idea that people were poltically naive before 1900 and couldn't understand bigotry is just about the most stupid thing I have read today. People were quite probably MORE poltically astute back then and why they fought for things things like the right to vote. Equal pay.

    You hit the nail on the head!
    Bureaucracy rules academia, but not only at the university level.
    It permeates all levels of education.
    One teacher trying to teach 30 plus children in a public school is common .
    But, there are dozens of people in things like curriculum committees, and focus groups on any and every peripheral subject under the sun.
    There are special interest lobbying, for their agendas ( lgbtq , alternative sexuality,racial equality, economic disparities,environmental issues,women’s rights, etc. etc.) which should have NO part in children’s education.
    This is a big problem.
    Case in point, my son was assessed to have a ‘ learning disability ‘. My husband and I were invited to have a meeting with a committee to draw up an “ individual learning plan” for him.
    There were no less then 15 people there from various “special committees “ present at the meeting.
    We received reams of paper work outlining their plans.
    In the end, there were no teachers in the school to implement any of these strategies, and we never had any meetings with actual teachers.
    The only benefit that he got from all of their strategizing was to get extra time to complete tests.
    What a waste of time, effort and resources!
    But, in the end, if bureaucracy determines where resources are to be allocated, they will inevitably serve themselves, and not the institution that they are supposed to serve.
    Aristotle once said ‘ give me a child until he is 7 and I will show you the man ‘
    The question is, what sort of man are these institutions trying to produce?

    is used to divide, disrupt, and cause chaos in society and government to create
    an environment for change. That change is the “fundamental transformation”
    which is the replacement of Capitalism with some form of Marxist system.
    Cultural Marxism is a root cause of unrest in Western

    Back in my late 20s I thought it wouldn't be a bad thing to look for something to study at my local university during my spare time, so I looked up and the humanities seemed like a good choice because it was the one with the least weekly hours. I was met by a cult of anti science, morally bankrupt mental gymnasts the likes I've never met before, and the professors were the worst. I mean I had never been to a university before and my general knowledge was often superior to most of theirs. I dropped out after attending some time out of curiosity and of course because I couldn't resist antagonizing them just by questioning their claims. The realization that all those other students were just being indoctrinated and thrown into the world without any useful skill was mind blowing.

    As one who spent some time as an "academic" [albeit in science, but able to observe the Humanities etc] I can certainly testify to Douglas Murrays' comment that they are "not the bravest people in the world", and add to it: sadly, without wishing to be offensive, I have to say that today, they are also not the brightest people in the world. Universities have become downgraded to an appalling degree compared to what they were for hundreds of years; places of highest education and learning for the very intelligent. Now they trade schools for basic training if that; [no criticial thinking, ancient histories, philosophies and psychology with Natural History are included], coupled with breeding grounds for "useful idiots". Most Liberal Arts / Humanities academics across the Anglo-empire world are often of marginal ability - and again, like the mass of people they are part of, never having formed a sense of National Identity in youth leading to personalised self identity as they form. They are able to grasp one idea, one set of teaching, and like a train on tracks, they can chugg along that line. It becomes their identity, and they never question it, since to do so is to question their own existence, but instead turn it into a cult. They have their high priests / priestesses; Holy Writ, and Dogma. And Gold help any who are "heretics" and challenge it. Thus, as did the Catholic Religion for years, they are now ruling and ruining the cultures they sprang from.

Of course, when the Far Left has received this notice, historically, it has always blamed the electorate - particularly the 'plebs' - for not supporting Hard Left, Marxist values. Now that democracy has failed THEM (not that they have failed democracy!), we must expect non-democratic means of causing trouble in the UK. And, what do we find this morning?

    The big misconception that many people have about the Frankfurt School is that they tend not to realise that the first generation (Horkheimer, Adorno and a few others) where staunch anticommunists and were not even keen on changing the political or economic system of the West. Horkheimer acknowledged the merit of capitalism and didn't even want the Social Democrats in Germany to win a general election, because that would change things up too far. Adorno on the other hand was quite conservative on a lot of cultural issues and his critique of society was not aimed at proposing or creating an alternative. When radical activists occupied the Frankfurt School (the actual building), they called the police to remove the activists. Even Habermas, propably the most famous person from the second generation of the Frankfurt School expressed the fear that the young radical activists of the 60's and 70's might turn out to become a leftwing-fascist movement. I don't think you can trace back the history of cultural marxism and the influence it has in the Anglosphere to the Frankfurt School.

    The point that "the Working Classes have always let us down!" by the Communists, Marxists and Anarchists is supremely well-made. And the proof of the passing was the 2019 British General Election. Because the Communists, Marxists and Anarchists (especially the dim ones who teach!) neglect one factor: that most people LOVE their Country and are patriotic: particularly among the Working Classes and the Upper Classes. The ones who do not are the Middle Classes - the 'Managerial Classes' - found in the C ivil Service, local Hospitals and Schools, the Police, Armed Forces and Judiciary. These are the people of 'Identity Politics' and 'Intersectionality'. And they are not nice people! They are censorious, puritanical, judgmental, and embittered.

    Socialism, climate-marxism, they all follow the following schema:
    *Praxagora:* I want all to have a share of everything and all property to be in common; there will no longer be either rich or poor; I shall begin by making land, money, everything that is private property, common to all.
    *Blepyrus:* But who will till the soil?
    *Praxagora:* The slaves.
    And the slaves are always around in one form or another. It's called failed socialism, I suppose.
    _In reality, socialism is only the inner circle of socialism. And the outer circle of socialism are the slaves._
    Slaves, running on the hope that they will make it one day to the inner circle. Where they get rich and richer, the golden governance of marxism, including propaganda organs, surveillance of opinions and Control. Including the indisposables. The teachers, the judges, the cops.
    If we look at the Curriculum Vitae of Marx, we have to remark that he was ground zero of the inner, wealthy circle of socialism, profiting as the very first from wealth transfer from his buddies rich dad to him and his cause. Then look at any other socialist or marxist leader. They are the black holes of the people's wealth, Castro died as billionaire.
    We don't need to be ideologists to help each other and better things. Marxism is a business model on national, then international scale, where the inner circle benefits financially.
    *Understand me well,* it's a thing of *group psychology* that makes the different forms of socialism fail.
    You have to understand that there is a better way to better things, a divided house will not persist. Maybe it"s time to free the slaves _again._

    What Mr Murray fails to mention is that it was deliberate British government policy over the past 40 years that the apprenticeships which had been previously funded by the employer were now replaced with training at these academic institutions. I myself after working full-time for 12 years since leaving school at the age of 17 for a minimum wage only of £1.66 an hour, not to mention being charged as a woman with no children, after all, I never left school at the age of 17 with ready made children in need, and whilst living with my Mother and Father at their rented Council House, being charged National Insurance contributions since the age of 17, as well as illegal Tory Poll and Council Taxes since the age of 21 in 1988, being charged £55.00 a month, (£715.00) annually, then £65.00 a month(£845.00) annually, then increasing to £90.00 a month(£1170.00) annually and paying these illegal Poll and Council taxes for the past 30 years so that I could no longer afford to socialise or live. I was persuaded by the corrupt British government's Tony Blair New Labour war cry, "Education, Education, Education" to retrain and entered a course of training for the British National Health service in 1999 as a "Medical Photographer" which I was advised was the correct course by the Careers Service and by the Advisor of Studies who was in charge of teaching the course. I was told there was a shortage of people who were trained to do this vital work, which was badly needed in the health service and I was assured of a Job at the end of the Training. I had to self finance this course by borrowing government student loans of £4,000 and working part time in the evenings, unlike Nurses who received £5,000 grants and had their rent and travel expenses paid for them. And after completing this Bums on Seat course after 2 years, I was told at a local Hospital Job interview in 2001, by the Head Medical Photographer who had taken my group of students on a tour of his Medical Illustration Department on the first year of my course, that I had studied "the wrong course". I complained to the College Advisor who had persuaded me to give up my full-time job in 1999 and enter his corrupt course of recruitment for the Health service, that I had been told I had studied the "Wrong course" only to be told by him it was nothing to do with him and take no responsibility for leaving me with no job and a shit load of debt for the privilege.This corrupt Education for the Health service took me from a position of "gainful employment and good health into unemployment and bad health", leaving me with debts which I could not afford to pay, as I was left with no job and resulted in stress and destroying my once good healthy immune system. Then the corrupt British state had the audacity to be advertising in their Job centre plus services in 2006, after refusing me employment at the end of this corrupt course which had been set up by the General Medical Council and the Institute of Medical Illustrators and received European Social Funding, vacancies for "Medical Photographers", which required "no previous experience or qualifications" as training would be given. The starting salary was £16,500-£18,500 and a driving license was essential. I could not apply for the vacancies as I did not have a driving license and this was not a prerequisite when I undertook the previous corrupt course of training. These paid government training vacancies made a "mockery" of the "qualifications" and training which people like myself had given up their full-time jobs of 12 years to study, only to be refused employment at the end of the training. My local MP and Councillors equally proved futile and failed to investigate and resolve this "travesty" of justice on my behalf. They are ALL Self-Serving CRIMINALS and have the audacity to expect decent people like myself to vote for them. FUCK THEM ALL!
