The Real Problems with Liberalism!

Leftism, aka., liberalism is being misdiagnosed by quite a few bad actors within various media circuses. This post will try to flesh out what's wrong with the various temper tantrums masquerading as insight within media culture these days.

Let's first get clear on some definitions:

liberalism is a function of one hemisphere of the brain linked to creativity and novelty and imagination. Without it, we are reduced to mindless robotics. Conversely conservative is a function of the other hemisphere which seeks stability, strength, and fortitude and without it, we are reduced to being blown aimlessly by various winds and whimsy.  We need both faculties working together and functioning to high degrees of efficiency.

Furthermore, liberalism tends to blame societal structures for problems within culture and conservatives want to blame individuals but the truth is that both are equally culpable for the shambles we face today. Picking one side to blame is simply a divisive tactic of the archons.

Okay, now that we have a few parameters fleshed out we can begin to weed out the propaganda. One of the foundational divides within the left-right dichotomy over the past 500 years has been the Idealist/Materialist divide--aka., the science/religion schism. The bad actors on the scene are espousing one of two false choices: either one has to believe absurd religious mythology or are accused of being infidel/evil, or one has to fully embrace atheism as ABSOLUTE fact without equivocation; without concession that there could be something we don't know about life and the nature of reality. One position has led to fundamentalism and the other has led to reducing humans to objects of financial exploitation within the capitalist machine.

It's these capitalists who, in my opinion, are sewing much of this discord and disinformation. And they are doing this to obscure the fact that liberalism in the capitalist sense of individuals doing whatever they want whenever they want over the next century is going to lead to ecological disaster--but the capitalists don't care about this because it's simply another opportunity to earn capital. So out come all the diversion tactics to keep the capitalist machine running--business as usual! ( and straight into the police state technocracy).

The biggest diversion at the moment is the attack on postmodernism. While I agree that there may be problems with this within learning institutions the problems created don't span enough societal territory to warrant the hysteria. I won't touch on the fact that much of the insights of postmodernism were correct although I concede they are wholly inadequate as a grand narrative principle to govern civilization ( not that pomo's believed in G.N.), and I concede the performative contradictions built into postmodern philosophy do end up creating absurdities. But the solution to pomo isn't a return to fundamentalist idiocy!

The truth here though is that Marxism was always meant to be the dialectic of capitalism and they diabolically feed off each other and have created the worst death counts in human history! Neither one of them deserves esteem by any sensible or reasonable standard! I call them machinations of the god KA$H. It's more than just coincidence that Marx developed his theories just as the robber barons began their assault on the commons which has transferred the wealth of the nations into the hands of a few thousand mafia oligarchs! No, Marxism isn't the boogeyman it's one half of a monster called greed and avarice! But it makes for rather crappy entertainment within the political media circus, doesn't it?

I guess we are going to have to touch on Israel and Islam here, too; as they are two of the major antagonists within this inquiry. Israel is easy: 3500 years of I DINDU NUFFIN! Islam is useful idiots used as pawns by the demiurge as far as I can tell! The fact of the matter is that Islam wasn't much of a problem in modernity until the Zionists created a hell zone on earth birthed in severe violence and genocide. Hell, not that long ago Muslim lands were hippie destinations for easy living! It's The Greater Israel Project which has inflamed Islāmic delusions coupled with the rape of their lands by the corporatocracy. And now these insane greed infested capitalists have Christendom crying foul never conceding at all that the Christian Fascist's ( Christianity infiltrated by Zionist actors). created the very conditions that they whine about--Muslim immigration into the west.

No, sir/ma'am, liberalism isn't the problem they say it is and the problem that it really is will not be talked about any more than the fact that conservatism has been hijacked by the fetishism of Israel and fundamentalism in general.  The real problems with liberalism are environmental degradation and the abandonment of everything spiritual.

Here are a few more problems with modern leftist ideology in no particular order:

-it's allowed women freedom but women are now having to turn to porn and prostitution more and more as the capitalists become more and more greedy. Any cursory look in the help wanted section would prove this is the largest hiring section on the market. It should be noted that pre-war Germany had to turn to prostitution, too--on a remarkable scale.

-it has allowed amorality to be the guiding principle of economic thinking normalizing a mafia casino ethic of how to run economies.

-it's allowed immigration to the point of destroying its own identities as far as any historic group cohesion. This is creating reactionary ethnonationalism and it's not the first time we've seen this. Hitler was Germany's reaction to Jewish supremacy and we are seeing the same beast being fed today.

-the destruction of the nuclear family unit which was the apex of human survival.

It's only a spiritual animal fully free to pursue the truth of any particular matter that has any long-term benefit to the human condition; anything less is propaganda, and that seems to be the modus operandi of the times or zeitgeist! 

Sort:  

To quote another modern philosopher: "Very nice!"

Pretty good summary of how conservatives and liberals are both feeding the evil, yet they both have some values that are essential for human society.

Thank-you! And yes, it's a society of shadow entities now sucking the life out of common sense.

one of two false choices: either one has to believe absurd religious mythology or are accused of being infidel/evil, or one has to fully embrace atheism as ABSOLUTE fact without equivocation; without concession that there could be something we don't know about life and the nature of reality.

How right you are! Thes are false dilemmas.

This kind of either/or, us-against-them mentalitiy is ruining us.
