Understanding the psychology of totalitarianism became critically important in the 20th Century.
“Never Again!” was the chorus of millions in the public for generations of social science research outcomes that also garnered general public support.
What started out with the gratifying surface question, “What the hell is wrong with the German people?” quickly revealed deeper, even more disturbing, truths… “It’s the same thing that’s wrong with the rest of us.”
Milgram, Cohen, Janis, Asch, and countless others have all given us insight into the psychology of crowds and mass formation, yet we’ve not been able to take any steps to mitigate them.
Why?
The mass formation of the last decade is from an exploitation and deification of certain victim-sanctity taboos, which create moral certainty where there is, in fact, moral bias.
Good intentions and a desire for a better world create a groupthink pseudo-reality of a politically correct, morally-unassailable, Puritanical secular religion.
In this secular religion some lives matter more than other lives matter. True Believers and everyone else.
Over decades hidden behind taboo were things we’re predisposed to overlooking that have begun to generate outsized destruction in the wild or when State Power is applied.
Examples in my local news.
#ELIHARTSHOM
“Feminist Ally BLM She/Her,” #EliHartsMom” who ALLEGEDLY shot her son 9 times with a shotgun at point blank range. She received custody two weeks before after falsely accusing Tory Hart, Eli’s father. She then drove around with the boy’s body in her trunk.
Two female Dakota County Family Services Employees are set to be tried for their part in the family law / social services conspiracy that surrounded this atrocity.
Waukesha Christmas Parade
Another example was the Waukesha Christmas Parade Trial. Darrell Brooks represented himself in a trial that included 77 counts, including 6 counts of intentional homicide, and hit and run with a deadly weapon. These were mostly Dancing Grandmothers. The media initially reported the crime as if it were the Red SUV who did the murdering. Very little public outrage.
Each of these cases is written off as a lone crazy person, but in both cases there was a system of family and criminal law that enabled it or failed to stop it, intersectionally.
Each curiously shares remarkable jurisdictional proximity to the entry points of Marxism as Law in The United States. One right at Ground Zero, Dakota County.
Sex-Marxist Law (Duluth Model, TitleIX, Sexual Politics, Toward a Feminist State) sprang from Minnesota in the 1970’s and spread through the 80’s.
Race-Marxist Law (Critical Race Theory) sprang from University of Madison, WI in 1989.
While Darrell Brooks and #EliHartsMom are edge cases (and probably crazy people) the Marxism in our criminal legal systems are designed to create even more of these outcomes.
The destruction caused to the families in Waukesha, Tory Hart, Eli Hart’s and everyone who knew him. The destruction of children isn’t the same as killing old people, I’m sorry, it just isn’t.
Children have lives ahead of them, Eli Hart and Jackson Sparks both had those lives stolen.
These two little boys mattered and the system that failed them is the same system that has been exported to your city. Feminist Gender Theory and Critical Race Theory exploit victim sanctity taboos and create polite, professional, yet, homogenous, totalitarian echochambers.
Marxist Feminism and Racism combine to create what was once called Political Correctness.
Political Correctness is now so pervasive in the legal system, even right leaning practitioners can recognize it. Those who can see it ask themselves where the adults in the room are.
The Puritan Woke are obsessed with implicit bias, but completely blind to explicit bias.
During the Reagan Administration, Marxist Feminists allied with tough-on-crime Republicans for their encroachment into Domestic Violence policy. Significant budgets were spent creating, printing, and distributing Marxist Feminist Propaganda as policy.
They learned how to put Woke policies in Conservative clothing, making them sound tough on crime when they were, in fact, textbook Marxist Feminism and Racism.
Family law, HR, and social services, all fields dominated by adherents of this Puritan dogma, practice their religion among the party faithful, wielding state power with little fear of consequence or feedback.
Critical Race and Gender Theory creates exploitable blind spots. The morally unassailable, fact-resistant, nature of its claims about race and gender make family law environments polite, Marxist theocracies.
The Puritans in these environments come in every political persuasion, and operate in these legal environments using Marxist dogma without realizing, or caring, that it was Marxist, so long as it felt moral.
Punishing men and protecting women both feel like unassailable moral goods.
Executing on this religious mandate to “do the work” in the cause of social justice, with a wrapper obscuring the faintest illusion of due process lies an explicit prejudice.
The Quiet Parts In Writing
The Blue Haired Campus variant was followed by the Red Hat QAnon variant in short order.
Waves of identity-focused people with religious fervor finding White Supremacist, Jewish, or Pedophile Conspirysteria.
Practitioners of this new Puritanism are riled by activists to demand stricter controls, more government, and reductions in due process and presumption of innocence, but of course, with an eye toward looking at everything through a lens of race and gender.
It’s a system allowing state actors to feel as if they are delivering social justice by giving:
Darrell Brooks gets $1000 cash bail for running over his girlfriend in Milwaukee so he is free to run over a Christmas Parade.
#EliHartsMom “Feminist She/Her Ally, BLM,” received full custody with full backing force of the State of Tory Hart’s child before shotgunning him 9X at point blank range and putting him in her trunk, right before getting a ride home from police who later discovered the body when towing her car.
For years, I’ve listened to academics talk about the “Blue-Haired, Neo-Marxist, Postmodernists” in academia and more recently “Critical RACE Theory in classrooms!”
Critical Race and Gender Theory are the foundational theories of domestic violence and family services. Since the onset of Political Correctness, we’ve created a system of woke praxis in action, fueled by State Power.
While CRT and Critical Gender Theory are explosive new arrivals in education since the pandemic let parents see it first hand on Zoom, it’s actually been ticking time bomb in family courts, social services, law enforcement, and even healthcare for decades.
New, scary, Marxist buzzwords like “equity” have alarmed parents that there’s a problem in schools.
Women and Marxist men religiously increasing women’s equity has been the de-facto law of the land for 50 years at every level of government.
It’s called family law. It is Political Correctness | Wokeness, which is a Puritan religion.
Like all other Puritan religions, wokeness is totalitarian in its impulse, accompanied by chemical rewards for signaling luxury beliefs and crushing class enemies.
Men are oppressors after all. White men, doubly so.
For years, I’ve been sounding the alarm and tracing the roots of the woke_mind_virus back to Minnesota. For years, I’ve been telling everyone that even the Gad Saad’s and the Lindsay’s were underestimating the actual threat.
What if Everyone I Don’t Like Literally IS Like Hitler?
Adolph Eichman was allegedly ordered by Goering to stop the trains. Eichman proceeded, so the story goes, even after receiving a direct order to stop. He felt it was the right thing to do.
What the “Facts Don’t Care About Your Feelings” crowd doesn’t seem to understand is that no one is making actions based on facts. Those actions are based almost entirely on feelings.
Eichman, like the person who set Darrel Brooks’ bail, or the Judge and two defendants in Tory Hart’s civil case, were all bureaucrats doing what they trained to do because they thought they were helping.
In each environment, there were things that one just could not question.
Godwin’s Law speculates that any online conversation will eventually result in someone comparing someone else to Hitler or the Nazis. Godwin’s Law all but predicted this headline.
Perhaps, the reason Godwin’s Law predicts so well is that Everyone I Don’t Like Literally IS Like Hitler.
