In every developed country, the salient distinction is between nationalists/patriots and globalists. Globalism: "the attitude or policy of placing the interests of the entire world above those of individual nations" Excellent essay, my worldview exactly: Leftists And Globalists Have Merged Into The Same Horrific Entity | ZeroHedge Intro: Spoiler America is thoroughly divided. It has been divided and polarized for many years. Anyone who thinks they can stop it or fix it is fooling themselves. Anyone who thinks that conflict is avoidable is delusional. Anyone who thinks the division is “artificial” or a “false left/right paradigm” is naive. It is very real, tangible and undeniable. Many would argue that the core problem is the globalist cabal, influencing the population from the shadows, stoking violence from useful idiots and controlling every aspect of civil unrest. While these social engineers very much exist and they do try to play both sides of the chess board, they are only able to influence conflicts to a point. They didn’t create the conditions that make the conflict possible. Those conditions are inherent and eternal. The globalists merely exploit the divisions that already exist. Leftists WANT the power to destroy conservatives. They want control and they want to see blood. It’s the thing that subconsciously drives every political decision they make. Globalism as an ideology or a conspiracy has no power without the divergent and psychopathic subset present in every single society on Earth. Around 5% of any given population has narcissistic, sociopathic and psychopathic tendencies. Around 23% of the US population reports dealing with at least one mental illness and is likely to be taking some form of medication. Many of these people would still be considered “functional” in daily life, but not necessarily capable of controlling their emotions or avoiding reactionary behavior. Then you have around 25% of the US population with an IQ of 89 or less (well below average). This element of the public is deficient in critical thinking skills and they are more easily manipulated. These are just the intrinsic problems. When it comes to environmental factors, there’s the less obvious but always present element of academia that is “so smart they are dumb”. People who are educated but also heavily indoctrinated with an ideology that feeds their insecurities and their biases. Many of these activists are people with mental and emotional deficiencies trying to fill a void in their lives. They have no original ideas and they will rabidly and arrogantly defend the beliefs that they have been programmed with. Easily corruptible Americans exist across the political spectrum, left, right and center. However, today you are more likely to find most of them on the extreme left. A number of studies link far-left ideology with psychopathy and narcissism, and the majority of incidences involving legitimate politically motivated violence are committed by leftists (I outlined in my last article how data from left-wing NGOs like the ADL is rigged to make it appear that conservatives are “more violent” when we are not). Left-wing extremism linked to psychopathy, narcissism: study No Mercy: Woke Leftists Are The Problem And They Need To Go - Alt-Market.us It’s important to understand one vital thing; the key to grasping the root of the leftist problem: Leftist ideology, socialism, Marxism, communism, globalism, wokeness, etc. attracts mentally unhinged people. It sometimes creates them, but mostly it gives dangerous and unstable people a home, a club, a place to feel as if they are the majority and that they are on the right side of history. These stunted aberrations already exist everywhere, but in a healthy system they are usually isolated from each other and from normal society. In an unhealthy system without morals, responsibilities or self restraint, they thrive. The woke movement is a metastic mechanism; a relentless magnet that pulls in the ugliest elements of society and weaponizes them to attack the whole body. This is how every communist revolution starts – By gathering the dregs of a population together and telling them they are “the victims”. It then turns that mob loose for the sole purpose of burning down a target nation." Main point: "Maybe 20 years ago the “false left/right paradigm” was an apt description of our nation’s quandary. Today the term does not apply. The leftists and the globalists have become one body, one entity. They are the same enemy, working hand-in-hand. You cannot defeat the leftists without defeating the globalists, and you cannot defeat the globalists without defeating the militant leftists (and by the way, Neo-Cons are also leftists). I would make one distinction here: There are people who consider themselves tied to the liberal left but they are actually centrists. They might be misled or uneducated on the facts, they might let their emotions rule their thinking, but they are not necessarily friends of the globalists. Some of them hate globalism as much as conservatives do, but they wrongly believe that globalism is a product of free market capitalism and conservatism. Globalism is fundamentally socialist, not capitalist. It is built first on corporations which only exist because of artificial government charter and government protection. The central bank bailouts, for example, protected numerous corporations from the financial consequences of their mismanagement. The idea of “too big to fail” is a socialist policy, not a capitalist one. Central banks are a primary plank of the Communist Manifesto, not free market ideology. Furthermore, globalism forces nations into interdependency instead of advocating for self sufficiency and redundancy. In other words, it’s about top-down control and removing choice from free markets. The political left proudly promotes this kind of system. They despise public choice. This is why the leftists and globalists are perfect allies. Globalists at the World Economic Forum (the Davos crowd) have been pushing the “Great Reset” for the past decade. This reset is decidedly leftist in its goals. They want a “sharing economy” in which private property is abolished. Citizens would be required to borrow everything they have from the government, from apartments to cars to dinner plates. As the WEF says, you would “own nothing and be happy”. Welcome to 2030. I own nothing, have no privacy, and life has never been better It is a purely communist concept and fully supported by the political left. Then there’s the climate change agenda which demands carbon taxation, the dismantling of industry, the government regulation of the public diet and food supply, as well as population control (based on the lie of man-made global warming). Again, these are draconian restrictions that leftists cheer for. How about open borders and the end of nationalism? Leftists and globalists agree here, too. Both groups are ready to go to war in order to force western populations to accept mass immigration from the third world. Entropic immigration is a tool for ending western civilization, and leftists joyfully expedite that collapse. In terms of philosophy, progressive ideology and globalist theory intertwine into a symbiotic beast called “moral relativism”. Every element of the woke movement is based in selfish aggrandizement. All of its ideas require a morally relative framework that values hedonism over self restraint. In their minds, one cannot be free until one abandons all responsibility and conscience. It’s a confusing juxtaposition: They believe they are not free until they are allowed to entertain their darkest fetishes. At the same time, they want to micromanage the behaviors of everyone else. You will never see conservatives trying to defend this kind of thinking. You see leftists defending it all the time. In my view, two recent events make our irreconcilable differences abundantly clear: The pandemic response and the shooting of Charlie Kirk. During the pandemic we witnessed a clear fracture between conservatives and leftists in how we view freedom. Most leftists applauded the lockdowns, the mandates and the vaccine requirements. It wasn’t that they were afraid of Covid: They reveled in the vicarious power. They became animals frothing at the mouth for more. They demanded that conservatives be fined, imprisoned, forced to comply with the mandates. Many even wanted our children taken away. After Charlie Kirk’s assassination by a gay leftist (who confessed to his parents that he committed the attack after they recognized him in suspect photos), millions of other leftists danced, sang and cheered for the murder. They called for more blood, more death. They were in ecstasy. This was a defining moment for me, and I think it was a defining moment for our nation. The mask was completely torn away. Now we know, without a shadow of a doubt, the woke left is a purely evil movement. Not misguided. Not misunderstood. Not well meaning but stupid. They are evil. We need to accept the reality that we can no longer treat these people as if they are our fellow countrymen. As President John Adams once stated: “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” Our nation was not made for leftists. That is to say, we are at war with a moral relativist enemy that wants to see us erased from history. The fact that this enemy lives next door to us is incidental. I’m willing to fight for our constitutional rights, but not the rights of people that want to see the constitution burned. Few if any of the Founding Fathers would have tolerated the woke left in their lifetime. They would have kicked them out of the country without regret. The most peaceful solution to our problem would be nothing less than a shared agreement of national divorce. The political left and the globalists must be separated from the rest of us, cast to their own degenerate communist enclave. A place where they can sink or swim based on their insane dystopian theories on society (much like North Korea). They could give up on their ideology, embrace moral objectivity, meritocracy and national identity; but we all know that’s not going to happen. The final choice, and the most likely, is that we go to war. In which case, leftists would not last long and the globalists would escape overseas. Mark my words, the assassination of Charlie Kirk and the numerous attacks by leftist activists are just the beginning. I predicted this outcome right after Donald Trump’s election win and I warned that, like all communist uprisings, the violence will continue to escalate. The assassinations will pile up unless something is done. Terror Attacks Kick Off In 2025 - It's Only Going To Get Worse So Be Prepared - Alt-Market.us At bottom, everything the political left champions falls perfectly in line with the globalist vision for the future. They are not separate, they are the same organism. When you see an Antifa thug, an NGO activist or a transgender militant, what you are looking at is a willing appendage of globalism, not a “patriot” trying to be heard. This is why I can no longer tolerate the impotent calls among some conservatives and libertarians for “unity”. Nor the calls for “forgiveness” and “reconciliation”. Our most fundamental beliefs are mutually exclusive. It’s a childish notion to think you can coexist with the devil in the same house when his only desire is to see your destruction."
i think ayn rand clarified it best as collectivists vs individuals. her objectivist philosophy was prescient, and totally relevant today. her work really needs to be dusted of and read.
@Maria739 Excellent post! "The leftists and the globalists have become one body, one entity. " I think if there was ever any doubt all one has to do is follow the money to the real power. The Leftists are nothing but the low-level jackboots and screaming lunatics. They are merely the pawns to add chaos, restrict nationalism and aid in the advancement of the global agenda. When that is achieve, the Left, like the Right will either bend the knee or be exterminated. Allies they might be but there is no doubt who commands, sets the goals and gives the orders. "...the woke left is a purely evil movement. Not misguided. Not misunderstood. Not well meaning but stupid. They are evil." Yes, yes, and yes! Evil. I am really happy to see/hear that others see it the same as I do. Unfortunately, it took the death of a really good young man to solidify this belief throughout the nation. "The most peaceful solution to our problem would be nothing less than a shared agreement of national divorce." I used to think this way, let California secede and all the Leftists could go there but no more. That's a coward's path that leads to ruin. This is our country. We have paid full price for everything we have done to make it great, failures and successes, rights and wrongs, and to just let them walk away with a huge part of it without a fight - I mean a physical fight - would be turning our backs on all our nation's history. No, better to die fighting than act like cowards and weaklings. A splintering of America would also have horrendous effect on the world, giving the Globalist exactly what they want, a free hand to do as they desire, and in the end leads to slavery for us and the entire world. "...the assassination of Charlie Kirk and the numerous attacks by leftist activists are just the beginning... like all communist uprisings, the violence will continue to escalate. The assassinations will pile up unless something is done." I do not believe anything can be done to stop it. In fact, I believe this is exactly what the Globalists want. More assassinations will cause retribution killings which will cause more chaos in the nation, maybe even an all-out war...personally, I don't think the Leftists want a war; however, they are but a tool of the Globalists and a war for the Globalists would almost serve their purpose just as well...America must be nullified in some manner to fulfill their goals. Their only other alternative is the long game; wait out Trump for three years and see then if control can be reasserted. So, the next three years need to be spent tying Trump up in chaos so assassinations which would be almost as good as removing him - meaning - assassinating him. However, assassinating Trump is a double-edge sword, a real roll of the dice because they saw what happened with Charlie Kirk and likely this would send the Right over the edge (I think it would) backfiring on them and setting them back greatly. They want to splinter and destroy America, not unite it, to make it stronger. "This is why I can no longer tolerate the impotent calls among some conservatives and libertarians for “unity”. Nor the calls for “forgiveness” and “reconciliation”. Our most fundamental beliefs are mutually exclusive. It’s a childish notion to think you can coexist with the devil in the same house when his only desire is to see your destruction." I absolutely agree. There will be only one outcome, theirs or ours. There is no middle ground...in truth, there never was. It just took us longer to understand their total hatred of us and everything we represent...and they're truly evil. So, screw their calls for 'forgiveness and reconciliation.' I've nothing to give these people but my complete contempt and hate. This is what they wanted. They got it.
Oh, come on, guys... You don't think a unified, clean world with peace and happiness and equality is a good thing?
MONEY and POWER! Some place on earth, there are a small number of people who wield absolute control, were talking complete and total power, the power to command anyone under their influence and make them do their bidding. ( We need to identify these top tier individuals and eliminate them once and for all!) These Megalomaniacs operate under the falsehood that they are superior in every aspect to you and I, and that only they know the right way forward and are willing to sacrifice your blood and mine to get what they want! These people do not care about the worlds population, They all believe that the world would be a much better place if you and I were no longer infecting it. They WANT to eliminate a vast number of humans from the equation, the fewer of us there are, the easier it is to control who remains, and given the prep time, they have already identified their allies and you and I are not on that small list! A war would be the ideal, followed by a manufactured plague that can be programed or they can engineer to eliminate you and I, while protecting their chosen! THIS is the end goal for them, their wet dream! In the meantime, we have other lesser Megalomaniacs who empower those top few in total control, idiots like Bloomberg and Gates and Schwab, as well as hundreds of others, old men of wealth and power who are the tools, useful idiots who are funding the biggest pushes for consolidating power, these are the fools that will be destroyed once they have served their purpose, but this is only the upper end of the spectrum! Then we have the politicians, these are the biggest group of tools, bought and paid for by the higher level billionaires, the goal is turmoil, division, and strife, getting and keeping chaos at the forefront, raising the pressure to the boiling point to force the inevitable war that they need! This is how they will accomplish their end goals!
As long as there are humans this is a fool's mission. The human condition doesn't allow for all three to coexist.
Every writer on Zero Hedge uses the pseudonym 'Tyler Durden'. Our Great Depression really is our lives. We need Operation Mayhem against the globalists. Stop participating in their rotten system, stop buying their shit we don't need.
