The Four Megatrends in World Politics
By Vinay Kolhatkar
Politics the world over has the same trends the way I see it. The traditional bastion of Centre-Left (CL) vs. Centre-Right-Religious (CRR) has moved. CL used to stand for the working class. CRR was always religious, and hence anti-liberty on some social issues, like pro-choice, but not all (pro-choice on education) issues.
Enter two new megatrends. One arises from the wave of Marxist Monkeys (MM) that were inserted into university faculties; they have brainwashed many minds since the Seventies. They are dominant in the media as well, all over the world. But now they are real force in politics, in liberal democracies, not just Cuba, and China. They are Greenies, or peddlers from the Church of Climate Scientology, responsible for scientific fraud on a global scale. And, as Marxists, they see everything in the world as a class struggle—women fighting men, blacks fighting whites, LGBT fighting straights—they see only fights and oppression that must be opposed. CL now is infected by the Marxist Monkeys—see Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Congress Party in India, Trudeau etc. A Center-Left party veteran fully infected by Marxist Monkeys is Bernie Sanders. Excessive political correctness came to us via MMs, but it infected the Centre-Left (CL) too.
The counter wave megatrend comes from Xenophobic Protectionists (XPs). XPs are often covert racists, because they are afraid. Afraid of what the economy, ruined by central banking bastards and the Marxist Climate Scientology, has done to them. In their fear, they turn to a demagogue who plays on their fears. Donald Trump is the American demagogue, Clive Palmer the Australian, Marine Le Pen the French version, Putin the Russian one. XPs are on the rise, because CLs got in bed with the Marxists, and CRRs deserted them too, this lower middle-class, by not identifying the cause of the economic turmoil.
That said, the great advantage of most CRR politicians, like Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, and Narendra Modi, is that they see through the climate fraud. Modi is even pro-choice technically because he is not a Christian, but he really does not understand economics if he appoints a Chicago-school central banking bastard who blames Wall Street for the 2009 recession like Raghuram Rajan to run the central bank. Modi doesn’t understand that central banking should be demolished. Most CRRs don’t, but Cruz and Paul at least had a clue. But Modi, to his credit, has actually acted against the wholesale fraud of Greenpeace, the Marxist Monkeys’ climate scare and anti-industrialization institution.
When CRRs rise, Marxist Monkeys rise in opposition. In India, Modi rose, and a Marxist Monkey politician pretending to be a student (KK) is grabbing all the news right now via his friends in the media. Over there, Kejriwal’s party is fully MM. In Australia, The Greens are a political party of Marxist Monkeys. Here, CRRs are in power with one spectacularly dangerous precedent—the head of state, Malcolm Turnbull, unlike his colleagues, or any other CRR, is fully brainwashed by Climate Scientology. This, for me, completely overrides his pro-gay marriage and pro-Republic stance, for Climate Scientology is profoundly anti-civilization.
No one—CRRs, infected CLs, and certainly not XPs or MMs are worth voting for or backing. But at least most CRRs see through the climate fraud. And, in a liberal democracy, dominated by MMs in media and academe, CRRs will not be able to become theocrats.
No properly pro-liberty intellectual can get voted into power. There’s no such person on the horizon. Politics is a game of reflection. Unprincipled power lusters must tap into one of the four megatrends. They cannot usurp culture, they can only bask in its glory. And contemporary culture only allows for four imperfect or dangerous categories. Liberty isn’t one of them.
One must be presented as a folksy simpleton to have mass appeal. Rand Paul, the most articulate candidate of the U.S. campaign, failed to do so. Ted Cruz has to keep leaning into the last R of the CRR, and even occasionally ignite racist fears by having a shade of XP color, to win. Even then, the pure XP (Trump) is winning.
They are the four trends---CRRs becoming more zealous about their religion, CLs increasingly infected by Marxism, XPs and Marxists rising. The end game for XPs is a crony mercantilism, in which freedom of speech is done away with. The end game for Marxists is the end of industrial civilization.
That's why MMs and XPs are the most dangerous people of all. They must be opposed. Infected CLs are of no use. One is left with only CRRs, and so one must back Modi and Cruz, who are somewhat similar. But not Turnbull in Australia, who is brainwashed into Climate Scientology, and thus infected by Marxists.
