A New Word - The Modern Socialist

“When and obviously, well educated and well off middle-class or, to use classic old school terminology, bourgeois person claims to be a socialist, it seems strange to me. Obviously the entire declared reason for the left was initially and for a long time passionate concern for the proletariat, they were elevated to the highest human ideal, and thus the class war, hatred of bourgeois decadence and so on. But these people I’m talking about, I don’t think give they a damn about the working classes. Or if to do give a damn it’s only in the sense of intensely disliking them, and there’s no plausible sense of ideals aimed towards helping them or their elevation. As far as having to concern themselves with these they typically just write them all off as far right,  racist fascist or whatever, And have nothing more to do with them. 

So what’s this socialist ideal that they declare all about?”

“Well, it’s because socialism in its essence is really an envisaged totalitarian dictatorship by a self imagined intellectual elite. And these people you’re talking about of course believe themselves to be part of this elite. And so that’s what they mean when they say they are socialists.”

“ And so that’s what’s really going on with all this woke stuff being pushed by the elites, their media outlets, education systems and so on. It’s the same totalitarian socialist ‘ideal’?”

“Yes of course. There’s a court by Alexander Dumas, ‘Things change their name and the vulgar do not follow them. That is all.’ 

So they needed a new name and so essentially wokeism is the newest term for this cult of Progress, which we can reduce further to a cult of human vanity. And through vanity, we open ourselves up to demonic influence and that’s why all these vanity fueled imaginings, such as the progressive socialist utopia, quickly reveal themselves to be seriously off to anyone with any kind of eyes to see. But of course, not to those who are basking in all the vanity. And this cult leads deeper into things like transhumanism, where the imaginings and ideals get crazier and crazier. Thus as Jesus says, ‘Those who walk in the dark do not know where they are going.’

So anyway, that’s what’s going on with the pompous, prosperous‘socialist’ idealists you’re wondering about. It’s about socialism is totalitarian rule by a self imagined elite who, by virtue of their brilliance, deserve to rule, and these people consider themselves be part of this elite, deserve to rule, and thus are socialists. 

To add, the slightly more modest version is that the leftist followers consider rule by the supposed intellectual elite to be an expression and extension of their own will and desires - which, in itself is of course also the most naïve vanity.”
