The
great political and socio-economic ideal of all time is freedom, also
known as liberalism. Historically, the best and most liberal system
of government ever was America around 1800. But the U.S. was still
far from fully free and politically perfect.
Even
during George Washington’s reign, government funding wasn’t
voluntary and contractual. The state fascistly punished private
“vice” somewhat. There were a few oligarchic government-protected
business monopolies. There were socialist roads, parks, schools,
money, and mail delivery. And other tyrannical things. Founding
Fathers America wasn’t an entirely free society and couldn’t be
called a pure liberia.
As
the 1800s progressed, America followed post-revolutionary France’s
lead and deviated away from liberty and justice for all. The U.S.
took two paths: right-wing conservatism and left-wing progressivism.
Altho’ the demarcations weren’t clear and consistent, the
conservatives tended to support economic liberty while opposing
significant elements of social and personal liberty. The progressives
tended to support social and personal liberty while opposing
significant elements of economic liberty.
And
that’s the way it stayed up until the 1960s.
As
late as the 1940s and 1950s you could spot conservative Republicans
and Democrats opposing equal rights for the different races, genders,
and sexualities while supporting censorship of books, movies, plays,
singers, comedians, and entertainers. Progressive Republicans and
Democrats favored civil rights and social freedom on all these
issues. Conservatives also wanted strong tyranny for victimless
“crimes” like drugs, prostitution, and gambling, while
progressives usually wanted these private activities legalized or
only lightly coerced.
But
while conservative Republicans and Democrats may have been fascists
and political failures when it came to social and personal liberty in
the 1940s and 1950s, they largely reversed this economically.
Conservatives righteously opposed the 1930s New Deal and the growing
socialism thereafter. Progresssive Republicans and Democrats, in
turn, favored the growth of government tyranny when it came to
economic programs like the above, as well as Medicare, Medicaid,
expanded Welfare, expanded unemployment benefits, expanded government
housing, and the like.
But
all that changed in the 1960s. The Democrats became the party of
intense progressivism, with few or no conservatives. The Republicans
became the party of intense conservatism, with few or no
progressives. And both leading political philosophies significantly
changed their relationship to liberalism and political freedom.
The
progressives or Leftists no longer much supported the liberalization
of victimless “crime” laws, whereas the conservatives and
Republicans sort of did. The Leftists no longer supported equal
treatment for whites and blacks, nor for men and women, while the
Rightists mostly did. Progressives after 1965 or so opposed civil
rights and wanted privileges for “minorities”, often called
“affirmative action” discrimination. But this favortism for one
tribe over another was socio-economic fascism and tyranny – which
the conservatives used to favor. Now the Right was comparatively on the side of liberty and justice, with the Left on
the side of government coercion and “social justice”.
After
the “counter-culture”, "hippie generation”, and “Age of
Aquarius”, the New Left was noticeably more illiberal and
anti-liberty than the Right. The conservatives or Rightists of the
post-1960s were certainly not liberals or capitalists or any kind of
libertarians. But they weren’t nearly as illiberal or pro-tyranny
as the updated progressives or New Left. The great philosopher Ayn
Rand even identified the New Leftists as being neo-savages and
enemies of the Industrial Revolution. And indeed their rejection of
large elements of Western Civilization was horrific.
But
by 2015 or so, and as exemplified by Senator Bernie Sanders, the philosophy of left-wing progressivism became
significantly worse. Both president Barack Obama and president Joe
Biden openly boasted they sought to “fundamentally transform
America”. Their opposition to America’s liberal or libertarian
essence was profound.
The
current Left openly advocates socio-personal fascism and economic
socialism. Their love of Orwellian enslavement is strong. The
so-called progressives – who actually favor massive regression from the
European Enlightenment and America’s Founding Fathers – now want
a new New Deal or Green New Deal. After the disastrous retreats on
liberty in the 1930s and 1960s, the Left wants still more. They now want
Big Brother to almost completely take over education and health care.
And to further their ends, and based upon general principles, the
Left even wants to censor most political and philosophical debate, as
well as most art and entertainment. Their logic is "hate speech isn't free speech," and false and bigoted views aren't protected by law. Overall, if you dispute the woke Left you must be a bad person, hence your ideas
and yourself must be “canceled”. What could be more evil than
this?
The
new-era regressives have even changed their mind on immigration. They
currently want as many low-quality Hispanics, blacks, Moslems, and
Third World savages as they can get. However much this devastates
America, they don’t care. The new-era Leftists desire them as new
voters in order to promote their new politics of fascism, socialism,
and tyranny. Unbelievably, the ultra-progressives and new New
Leftists now reject merit and quality in American immigration.
Perhaps
most shockingly, the evolved and woke Left now favors racism and sexism. In the recent past, they ferociously
opposed them. But now their philosophy is tribalist bigotry like “critical race
theory”, i.e. “hate whitey, kill whitey”. According to the
finest thinkers on the Left, all whites and males are evil by nature. Everything they do, by definition, is bigoted and wicked. And anyone who
doesn’t admit this is an advocate of “white supremacy” and “the
patriarchy”. Anyone who doesn’t automatically revile and loath
whites and males – including other whites and males – is a lover
of the KKK and Hitler.
And
so the Monster Left is born. Their hatred of liberty is intense.
Their ignorance and depravity is amazing. They want individual rights
and justice for all to just die.
The post-2015 Monster Left’s love of collectivism and authoritarianism is
profound. Pretty much all forms of liberalism need to be crushed. Virtually all
aspects of socio-personal libertarianism, economic capitalism, and
political liberty need to be terminated.
Monster
Leftism loathes Western Civilization, America, capitalism, freedom,
whites, males, open debate, free speech, and Enlightenment liberalism. Monster
Leftism adores fascism, socialism, and tyranny. Ultimately, the
Monster Leftists favor a politics and world of communism, Marxism,
Stalinism, Kymer Rouge-style genocide, and Big Brother-style total
enslavement.
