upper classes of Britain at
least once defended their own country and culture, even if in a more
cynical view they were defending their own privilege. Now they can't or
won't even do that: such is
the intellectual rot
that has permeated every class and every party in England. - (wileyvet) "It's

Introduction
It is historically unprecedented: never before the ruling and richest
elites in
the entire Western world as though voluntarily and readily conceded
their power
and wealth in pandemic insane obsession and concerns about the "poor"
and low class. It is much more than "lack of civilizational
confidence" or a "liberal fear of being envied" (Jack Wheeler),
which both are only symptoms of a bigger and even more puzzling
historical
trend.
This global liberal brain melting began a couple of centuries ago.
Before the
1800s it was generally presumed that the highest classes are objectively
better than the lower, thus fully deserving their wealth,
privileges,
and power (inherited or acquired). At that, the lower classes were low
mostly
because of their objectively limited knowledge, skills et cetera, while
the
wealth is limited anyway so that it can not suffice for everybody. Some
in the
low class were unjustly disadvantaged indeed, but that did not change
the
general presumption of an objective inequality as something
proper to
the human condition.
Such
thinking was absolutely prevailing among the upper classes, which had
no prongs
about their privileged situation – with just rarest exceptions, such a
the
Count Michael Vorontsov of Russia (1782-1856), who said "The rich
and
powerful must live in such a way, that the others pardon them their
wealth and
power". Perhaps it was the only case when a person of his posture
was
even concerned about his own privileged situation seeking justification
for it
(and Count Vorontsov was really an exemplary citizen which dedicated
his entire
life for doing good for the nation and the people).
However some inexplicable rot in mind of the Russian aristocracy and
intelligentsia began already in the middle of the 19th century. Follow
this conversation in the quote below between two persons representing
the light and conscience of those days: a quote from the memoir by
Suvorin – a famous publisher of Fyodor Dostoevskiy recalling his
conversation with Dostoevskiy.
Since then unprecedented in the human history events began to happen
(to name a
few):
1) European monarchies voluntarily reduced their power from near the
absolute
to zero, turning themselves into puppet figures (those who were lucky
to
survive not being executed).
2) In the 1920s American Congress changed the existing laws and granted
voting
rights to all US citizens disregarding their property status.
By
granting the right to vote to those, who do not want or cannot make
their
living, the ruling class willingly placed our country under pressure of
the
poor seeking only more and more entitlements.
3) The same ruling elite willingly taxed themselves (or rather
the top
middle class) progressively (i.e. unevenly, higher than
others!): above
50% (in Eurabia even higher), thus willingly robbing themselves in
favor of the
lower classes (never mind the constitutional principle of equal
treatment).
4) Eurabia and America in the 1960s completely abandoned the unshakable
axiom
that the aspiring immigrants must match the racial, cultural, and
religious
identity of the hosts (plus other limitations).
5) There exist too many very visible and extremely wealthy individuals,
who
publicly support causes and invest money with the goal of destroying
the the
free market and free competition system in America – George Soros being
the
most notorious of them. A few other "new riches", financial or
technological geniuses are either explicit America's haters (like the
former
Soviet citizen Brin, the founder of Google), or supporters of utopian
projects
including a World Government and removal of national boarders (Bill
Gates).
Some of those riches and the political elites of the West are members
of the
Bilderberg club and few other organizations, promoting the so called One World (Socialist)
order.
The
D.
Horowitz's brochure "From shadow party to shadow government" showed
that the enormous work of the Lefts/Progressives to undermine the very
foundation
of the Unite States has been taking place for many decades: The work
financed
in a tune of billions. (KGB could never even dream to have it so good,
so deep,
and so overwhelming).
6) In the same time no one, literally not one person of
the
comparably high financial caliber is visible (or even exists) on
the
conservative side of the political spectrum: not one person of the
Soros
caliber but with the views opposite to those of Soros. There is not one
project
(except the Judeo-Christian
America) on the conservative side attempting at least to identify
and name
this enormous subversive activity of the Lefts, Progressives and
Liberasts,
never mind to confront and stop it!
Not
only is
this total lack of the rich and powerful on the conservative side
embarrassing,
but it also totally undermines the freedom of expression. Why? Because
the
freedom of expression is never really "free", always depending on
support of those who have means. Thus the uniformity in minds of the
rich
and powerful translates into the uniformity of the media and into
the
totalitarian state in general. Such a lack of the rich and powerful
which
neither wish nor dare to utter a word against the low life agitators
alone
spells the doom of the West and a defeat of the liberty. However the
degeneration affected not only the class of rich and powerful.
It
affected also the middle class – the foundation of America and
the Free
world.
The middle class self-enslaved itself with its unbridled desire of the "sweet life" now by means of making massive debts. It's because of those debts (and the wish of sweet life now) a fear to lose a job acts as efficiently as the KGB and GULAG. The contemporary middle class desperately needs well paid jobs. But who are the job givers? Who are the employers? – The above mentioned uniformly liberast businesses a la Soros! As a consequence the liberast uniformity of minds has intimidated into submission also the middle class.
7) Paradoxically, the One World Order crowed (atheists and socialist by
its
very nature) somehow embraces Islam. Not only does the West ignore the strategic danger of Islam empowered by the
petrodollars
in 20th century. The West under these elites had widely opened the door
for
Islam, turning the home polices of every Western nation into a
grotesque
dhimmitude.
8) On the other hand, by pushing the sham of the nonexistent "Global
warming" and various "cap and trade" scheme, the One World Order
ideologues attempt to redistribute and spread the wealth of the West to
backward corners of the world.
This suicidal trend is more fundamental than decadent soul searching,
liberal
complex of guilt, and similar. It seems as though no amount of truth
per se can
influence the direction of this social trend, evolving as though
something
unrelated to intelligence. After all, clear minded people 1,
2 described and warned about the
Progressive/Liberast agenda already in the 1950s. Attempts to influence
it seem
as futile as speaking to the tectonic plates (explaining to the plates
that
they are moving in the wrong direction!)
Does it all exemplify the case when a (suicidal) "idea has possessed
the masses becoming a material force" (as Marx/Lenin notoriously
put
it)? And it is not merely an (immaterial) idea: The most rich and
powerful of
this world are financing it!
Attempts to
confront the dominating paradigm or the global mental infection may
seem
futile. However to leave it alone avoiding the confrontation at all
would mean
a suicide without fight right now. Even if the West will not survive,
the ideas
will, because, rephrasing M. Bulgakov, "Ideas do not burn..."

Gofen, 2008
Years later
after this introduction had been written, I found a few sources revealing the origin
of all
these puzzling transformations in the modern history. The quote below
from
"Tragedy and Hope" by Carroll Quigley will give you some clues.
The
true explanation of what happened is not yet
completely known and, as far as it is known, is too complicated to
elucidate
here. It is however, clear that many persons who were born in the
period
1900-1920 and came to maturity in the period 1928-1940 were so
influenced by
their experiences of war, depression, and insecurity that they adopted
more or
less unconsciously, certain aspects of the Communist ideology (such as
the
economic interpretation of history, the role of a dualist class
struggle in
human events, or the exploitative interpretation of role of capital in
the
productive system and of the possessing groups any society).
There
does exist, and has existed for a
generation, an international Anglophile network which operates, to some
extent,
in the way the radical Right believes the Communists act. In fact, this
network, which we may identify as the Round Table Groups, has no
aversion to
cooperating with the Communists, or any other groups, and frequently
does so. I
know of the operations of this network because I have studied it for
twenty
years and was permitted for two years, in the early 1960's, to examine
its
papers and secret records.
It
was this group of people, whose wealth and
influence so exceeded their experience and understanding, who
provided much
of the framework of influence which the Communist sympathizers and
fellow
travelers took over in the United States in the 1930's.
The similar ideas were expressed more than 100 years ago by
New York City Mayor John Francis
Hylan and President Theodore Roosevelt
