Social Engineering, Class Warfare

By Douglas V. Gibbs

"Patriotism is the wholesome, constructive love of one's land and people. Nationalism is the unhealthy love of one's government, accompanied by the aggressive desire to put down others - which becomes in deracinated modern men a substitute for religious faith." -- Thomas J. DiLorenzo, Hamilton's Curse, 2008 Three Rivers Press, p. 13.

In order for the ruling elite to be able to convince the general public that only the ruling class understands, and can recognize, what is best for the common good, the public must be herded into a position of not being able to protest against the changes to society that the political elite are putting into place in order to achieve a utopian order that they believe to be not only for the greater good of the public, but the greater good of their own level of power and wealth. However, whenever the public is forced into submission by a totalitarian system using police-state tactics, the collectivism project collapses, and as a result the power structure collapses as well. Therefore, the general public must be corralled without the sheep dogs or horsemen. In other words, the people, in order for the establishment to socially engineer society into a utopian system, must enter the confinement willingly, truly believing that their slavery is for the sake of their freedom.

In the name of freedom, we are becoming enslaved.

One of the methods in the social engineering project by the political elite to change society into an obedient homogeneous mass is by educating the populace that what is the truth is actually the opposite of what the truth is, while creating chaos through class warfare. The methods to bring about these changes, however, must be done in a stealth manner.

After the Soviet Union collapsed, observers in the West recognized it to be the failure of an experiment in "social engineering" through force. The Soviet Union was essentially an oligarchy maintained in a police-state scenario, and its failure justified Western opinion that no centralized effort at "social engineering" could ever be successful. The conclusion by the mainstream was that the best future for humanity depended upon all of us being the beneficent of the "invisible hand" of free market forces.

The United States, however, despite the belief that this is a free country, has been under the assault of the same collectivist forces that guided the Bolsheviks and Soviet communists. American culture has been infiltrated, and though the process of turning our society into a communal system has been much slower, applied in an incremental manner, the American system is also moving in a direction of utopianism under the invisible hand of social engineering, and orchestrated class warfare.

Rather than openly proclaim themselves for what they are, as the communists did in the Soviet Union, in America the Marxist counterparts, identified as progressives and liberals, have taken their time with patient deliberation. The liberals use political correctness to mask their true intent. They have discouraged any debate over their true motives, censoring their opposition through ridicule and accusations. The discussion has omitted language that may betray their social engineering, income redistribution, class warfare, and any form of affirmative action that might become associated with these foregoing notions. Eliminating these ideas from the public debate, while acting upon them, has enabled them to fill the political discussion with propaganda that pit the wealthy against the poor, the religious against non-believers, sexual perversion against anyone who dares to question the "normalcy" of their abnormal behavior, and of course pitting the various ethnicities and races against each other.

God was removed from the schools to create animosity between believers and non-believers, while also removing a belief system that places God above the governmental system. Utopian systems must be godless. A citizen that believes in a higher power than The State is a danger to the supremacy of The State. God must be eliminated in order for the government to become godlike, and trusted fully without doubt.

Since the day prayer was forced out of schools the demoralization, and indoctrination in leftist propaganda, has filled our education system. The Left argues that Christians have no right to shove their religion down everyone's throats with things such as prayer in school, while also believing that homosexuals have every right to shove their belief that their abnormal sexual behavior is something to be welcomed in society down everybody's throats. A Creator, according to these people, has no place in scientific discussion, but the blind faith that the forces of nature without the benefit of a designer produced the marvelous intricacies of the human eye, the ear, or even the simplest organisms found in nature, does.

Our society is incrementally being convinced that it depends on a small elite to manage our lives, decisions, and an economy that they have proven to be unable to maintain. The elitists say they offer us equality of results through a process of redistributing wealth, rather than backing off with their fascist regulations so that individuals can work to create their own wealth, ultimately becoming self-reliant.

The social engineers, while the classes and various belief groups, war against each other in defense of their various classes and beliefs, seek to create utopia. We are evolving, they believe, but the average person cannot recognize such evolution, and must therefore be forced to embrace utopianism so that the evolution may take place. We must be, these political elites believe, molded into a society of communism, happy to work for the state, and let go of our individual thoughts and beliefs. . . unless the government proclaims such thoughts and beliefs to be acceptable.

No different than the Soviet Union, only slower, through creeping incrementalism.

The Western elites have realized that their strategy must be to promise to the people one thing, but deliver another, so that they are not found out. They have realized that they must never make it appear that the government supports socialism, or that the members of the system are socialists, even though the platforms and agenda are indeed socialist in nature. And they have learned that they must never deliver socialism so much that the people will discover the exact nature of the game, and vote the deceivers out of office.

Enslave slowly, while explaining that it is for society's own good.

In the name of freedom, we are becoming enslaved - if we let them.

"Sir, what have you given us?"

"A republic, ma'am," replied Ben Franklin. "If you can keep it."
