Three Stages of Pre-Revolutionary Work of the Marxist

Marxism in all its forms follows the following methodology in their Revolutionary methodology.

1.) Separation stage
2.) Messaging stage
3.) Infiltration stage

Phase #1 — Separation

This is the stage where the work is undertaken to separate and divide society into distinct groups. These groups usually represent in some form or another the haves vs. the have nots. In WOKE culture this is expressed as oppressed vs. oppressor.

Just exactly how that division takes place does not matter. You can have, as in classical Marxism, the bourgeoise vs. the proletariat. You can have, as in feminism, the trodden upon woman vs. the sexist male. You can have, as in gender Marxism, the pervert vs. oppressive heterosexual mafia. In this stage of separation envy is stoke by assigning guilt and blame. This work expands as eventually whole classes, genders, professions, and/or races are dropped in the category of “oppressor” so that not only individuals but also large groups can be targeted as “haves” that must be brought down in order to achieve “fairness.”

In our culture we are seeing this in the creating categories between races (white race = evil oppressor) all other races are the oppressed. We also see it in sexual warfare. The pervert crowd (LGBTQ) is thought of as oppressed while the oppressors are all those who are for traditional (Biblical) sexuality.

By this separation technique Marxists create a grievance constituency upon which they will use as their shock troops to pull down the haves. Ironically enough, there may be times when there are some who are genuinely oppressed that the Marxists corral into supporting them. However, these people typically fare far worse when the the Marxist oppressed come to power. These people end up going from the frying pan to the fire.

Phase #2 Messaging stage

Once the oppressed are separated from their oppressors then maximum messaging of discontent is blared out from the media / educational organs.

In this stage the embers of envy are stoked. Emphasis is placed upon how raising awareness as to how the oppressed are exploited by the oppressor class. Think of this stage as the stage where the fire under the kettle of discontentment is stoked so that the oppressed become more and more bitter by how unfair the oppressors are to them. The goal of this stage is to build up the pressure so that when the revolution finally comes winning will be like ripe fruit falling from the tree.

This has gone on for a long time in the West via the work of Marxist Hollywood, as well as the work done in the Government schools which strongly emphasizes this messaging. Of course, our own media outlets (radio, TV, newspapers, magazines) continue to push this messaging stage.

Some of referred to this as the propaganda or coding stage. A cultural and societal climate and environment is created wherein people are first nudged and then pushed into thinking of themselves as oppressed have nots.

In this messaging stage, it is communicated that which is unfair will only change if people take matters into their own hands. Think…. “Workers of the world unite.” An “us vs. them” climate is created and what is underscored is that the have not “us” must overthrow in revolution the “them” oppressors.

It should be noted that historically this stage has included large amount of Bagel financing to pay for the messaging stage. The conniving always know how to get rich from Revolution, plus for the Bagel there is always the added plus that typically and historically what is being overthrown is the morality and ethics of Christianity.

Phase #3 — Infiltration

We are still pre-Revolutionary here. With each of these stages the ground is being made fertile for the coming violent bloody Revolution. The hopes are that with this pre-Revolutionary work found in Separation, Messaging, and now Infiltration, that the Revolution itself will be just an inevitable and natural course of action.

In the infiltration stage those who are sympathetic to the oppressor class weasel their way into positions of importance so as to be able to grease the rails for when the revolution comes. Often in this infiltration stage not only individuals but whole cultural institutions are owned by the Revolutionaries. All of this is a micro-accruing of power so that the macro-accruing of power can be more easily achieved.

By infiltration the Marxist can pivot to a pincer move against the established oppressor class by being able to, at one and the same time, strike from below provided by rioting useful idiots and strike from above by key institutions turning against the established culture as a whole. We see this happening in our culture with the complete compromise of the “Evangelical-Reformed” Church. The church is now a captured and infiltrated institution doing the preparatory ground work of pre-revolutionary of messaging. Once the Revolution finally comes here the “Conservative” Churches will be a leading institution gathering up the dissenters. Indeed, we’ve already seen that action taking place.

The goal of the three pre-revolutionary stages is to create a powder keg of resentment, envy, anger, and bitterness in any given culture as existing between the haves and the have nots — the oppressed vs. the oppressors. When the pre-revolutionary work has been successfully been done violence and blood is inevitable. Those who are against the Revolution will have to spill the blood of many revolutionaries who are non-epistemologically self-conscious about their being revolutionaries. Hopefully, the blood of many epistemologically self-conscious revolutionaries will be spilled as well. Think Franco’s work in Spain. Think Pinochet in Chile. Think Cromwell in England.

The cure for this before it gets started is by preaching Gospel Christianity. The cure for all this after this pre-evolutionary activity gains a toe hold is to preach Gospel Christianity as well as the work social ostracizing those who come creating envy with the view of separation, counter-messaging against the Marxist messaging, and proper discipline and criminalizing of infiltration when it is discovered. However, none of this can happen unless a people know what they believe and why they believe it and what they don’t believe and why they don’t believe it. People who just flow with the cultural current when pre-revolutionary work is being done will either become useful idiots for the Revolution or they will get eaten alive.

Here in the States we have lived with a great deal of pre-Revolutionary work for decades and decades. However, it seems we are coming to some kind of head in this matter. The enemy has been successful in spreading the disease of bitterness and envy so much that a oppressed vs. oppressor culture is where we now live. We are now in a position where we have to think carefully about who the cultural gatekeepers identify as “threats” or “dangers.” Since the cultural gatekeepers are often those who we have identified as “infiltrators” above we must realize that who our infiltrator institutions identify as “naughty” people may indeed by those people who need to be lionized above all.

Observations on White Boy Summer

I find it more and more the case that when Doug Wilson hates anything I find myself loving it — and make no mistake about it Doug Wilson hates “White Boy Summer” as seen in his cringe mocking attempt by labeling it “White Soy Bummer.” You know what they say about Liberals don’t you? They rightly observe that Liberals just don’t have a sense of humor, and Doug’s sense of humor regarding White Boy Summer amounts to a Ebenezer Scrooge “Bah Humbug.” Doug is being a grumpy old man.

Despite all the angst and chagrin coming from Doug and his lackey CREC sycophants (Toby Sumpter, Gabriel Rench, Chocolate Knox, Darren Doane etc.) White Boy Summer is here to stay. That is a good thing.

It is a good thing because “White Boy Summer” has become a rallying point especially for White Christian males who have finally decided that they refuse to eat anymore fecal sandwiches being served up by the burgeoning pagan culture, which is hell bound determined to blame the woes of the minority world on white people and the 1500 year old Christian theology and culture that together with his God ordained genetics made the white man the towering figure of world history. Let’s be honest here… it is not just pagan culture that is serving up the fecal sandwiches to Western Christian White men. It is also much of the visible Church in the West, including those expressions that like to think of themselves as “Conservative.”

“White Boy Summer” communicates that the embers of Western Christian Civilization still burn hot beneath the blackened ash that was once a raging fire that nurtured and warmed the whole globe. Those who have eyes to see can see that if the New World Order globalists/Satanists are to be defeated, they can only be defeated by the battalions that are beginning to form around the banner of White Boy Summer.

What White Boy Summer has done to propel itself into the National spotlight (shoot, even taking Lugenpresse head, Joy Reid — she of MSPMS fame–  mentioned the great racist danger that is White Boy Summer) is that it has pulled some jiu jitsu on the Cultural Marxists. The Cultural Marxists have been complaining for a couple decades (at least) about how evil the white man is. Books have been written by putative Academics like  Robin DiAngelo, Ibram X. Kendi, and Henry Louis Gates Jr. criminalizing and demeaning whites and whiteness. This attack on whites and whiteness has always been a clever proxy war against Christianity. These authors and their copycats understood that what made the white man so evil was that he was perfumed with Christianity. However, the Cultural Marxists understood that their cause would be better served to attack white people than to wage a frontal assault on Christianity. So, the proxy war against Christianity has been fought by the Cultural Marxists by attacking white people and whiteness. The jiu jitsu that the White Boy Summer crew has used on the Cultural Marxists is to take the proxy war against Christianity that has been waged against white people and turn it so that a proxy defense of Christianity is being fought by defending white people. White Boy Summer is indeed defending White People (it is good to be White, after all) but in defending White people the higher purpose is to defend Christ and Gospel Christianity.

The Cultural Marxists decided long ago to make White people the target so as to bring down Christian Western Civilization. The slogan “White Boy Summer” is the response. It is a subtle but unmistakable flipping of the table. White Boy Summer is saying to the Cultural Marxists, “You decided to attack Christ by attacking the people most perfumed with Christ. We have decided to meet you on the field of battle by defending Christ by defending the people, who throughout history have been, by God’s grace alone, perfumed with Christ.”

White Boy Summer then is a movement that has finally decided to fight back against those who have been seeking to “make Western Culture stink” for several generations.

Of course, the 95 IQ types jump up and down hollering “racist, fascist, bigot, blah blah blah” and this even though the White Boy Summer chaps have resolutely pointed out that all peoples are welcome to celebrate White Boy Summer just so long as they can honestly celebrate the Christianity that created White Anglo Saxon Protestant culture.

I have a friend in Europe who isn’t white and he constantly tells me that what he most earnestly wishes to do is to come alongside and support the work of heritage Europeans who share a White Boy Summer Christian world and life view. He doesn’t want to be the leader. He wants to support the white leaders who will be working to return the white man to the oaths of allegiance to Christ that they swore long ago.

So, there are minorities who understand and celebrate the superiority of historic white culture and the Christianity that accounts for it, and they certainly welcome to celebrate. At the same time there are cascades of white people who are self-haters because of their hatred of Christ. Part of this is accounted for by the propaganda that we are inundated with as delivered up by the Cultural Marxists. Part of this accounted for by the education that we submerge our children in from grade school to University and beyond. Part of this accounted for by lousy “conservative” churches and “clergy.” Instead of manfully fighting for Christ and their Christian people and family much of the clergy has cast their lot with the enemies of Christ and the enemies of White Boy Summer.

It really is incredible that the clergy in the West doesn’t understand the implications of the fifth commandment. It is stunning that they glide over Romans 9 where Paul speaks so highly of his own wayward people, demonstrating a natural affection for his people. It is shocking that the clergy today miss the direct statement of I Timothy 5:8 about responsibility to kin. It is bewildering that today’s clergy completely elide by Revelation 21-22 where we see all those Nations in their Nations entering into the new Jerusalem. Finally, it is nothing but a resolved historical ignorance that keeps the “conservative” clergy from acknowledging that all the Church Fathers would have been celebrants of White Boy Summer given their quotes that have been exhaustively documented.

What else can we say that most clergy and churches in the West are literally on the wrong side of history? By refusing to own movements like Kinism, White Boy Summer, and Christian Nationalism, etc. the churches and clergy of the West are anathematizing themselves. In God’s words they are “worse than an infidel (I Tim. 5:8).”

Let’s close by clearing something up. Recently, Joel Webbon and a couple other chaps did a podcast where Webbon said;

“Older theonomists are not fans of White Boy Summer.”
Joel Webbon
There are not many theonomists anymore who are much older than me and I love me some White Boy Summer. Indeed, I have to say that all the theonomists I know who are my age, give or take 15 years, love White Boy Summer. All Kinists, regardless of their age, love White Boy Summer, and  see White Boy Summer as an extension of Kinism.
I think Webbon sees guys like Sandlin and Doug Wilson carping about White Boy Summer and he concludes that guys like that are typical theonomists.
They ARE NOT. typical theonomists. Indeed, it is doubtful that they are theonomists at all. Indeed, both Sandlin and Wilson long ago left the Rushdoonian theonomy world. Anyone who has listened to and read  Rushdoony (the Grand-Daddy of theonomy) knows that on the whole Rushdoony would have saluted White Boy Summer. This is especially true of the early Rushdoony.
So as an older theonomist, I salute the White Boy Summer crew and say “Party on Garth.”

 

Eschatology Matters … A Diatribe Against Rabid Amillennialism & Amillennialists

The R2K flavor of Christianity with its amillennial eschatology, along with the amillennialism of the Protestant Reformed Church variety both by way to theological implication dismiss the postmillennial and Biblical position that Christ is the explicit King of the whole cosmos. R2K avoids this position by talking about how “Christ rules the common realm by His left hand.” By this maneuver the R2K heretics escape from any responsibility of identifying the explicit rule of Christ over different jurisdictions in the common realm with a clerical wave of the hand saying something ignorant like, “we need to stay in our lane,” as if the Lord Christ needs to be circumscribed in how and where He can exercise His authority. The Protestant Reformed Church, on the other hand, is just allergic to any talk of a Gospel Christianity where Christ is victor in space and time before His second advent.

It is difficult to see how those who reject the explicit Kingship of Christ over the whole cosmos and every area of life can affirm the time worn title of Jesus Christ as “Prophet, Priest, and King.”  Of course, the tack the rabid amillennialists take is to give a Gnostic turn Christ’s Kingship. The Kingship of Christ, per the R2K types and the foaming at the mouth amillennialists is “spiritual, don’t you know.” And “spiritual” ends up meaning “not concrete.” The Kingship of Jesus ends up being constrained to the Church realm as the Church is identified 100% as a synonym with Kingdom, so that Christ’s Kingdom is comprised of the Church alone, as if the rest of the Cosmos ticks along apart from the explicit rule of Jesus Christ as communicates in His Law-Word. The exegesis and theology that is required to come up with this neutering of the explicit Kingship of Jesus Christ is, shall we say, original.

Taking this matter in broad theological strokes we would observe that as Adam fell in such a manner as to completely transgress and violate the standards of God’s Kingdom, the Lord Christ, by His obedient life, death, resurrection, ascension, and session so repairs the wound that Adam inflicted that the results is that just as paradise was lost in Adam, so paradise is restored in principle in our great King Christ. In Adam all of creational reality received a mortal blow in space and time and in Christ all of creational reality receives a complete vivification in principle in space and time. To deny this would force us to conclude that the damage wreaked by old slew-foot is greater than could be repaired by the eternal victorious God man, Jesus Christ. In the words of Isaac Watts in his “Joy to the World,” Christ;

Comes to make His blessings flow
Far as the curse is found,
Far as the curse is found,
Far as, far as, the curse is found. 

As a matter of theology, Cornelius Van Til (inconsistently an amillennial himself) said;

‘The first three chapters of Genesis are the passage from grace to wrath; the rest of the Bible and the rest of history is the passage from wrath to grace that eventually leads to the wedding supper of the Lamb, the final judgment, and the extension into the eternal kingdom beyond history.”

So, the challenge for the rabid R2K amillennialist who insists that Christ rules by His left hand everything except the realm of grace and so didn’t die to restore and renew the family, the civil government, politics, art, education and whatever else David Van Drunen and David Engelsma has read as outside of Christ’s  kingly hegemony is to give us a non-contradictory exegesis and theology (upper register and lower register Mosaic covenant anybody?) that proves once and for all that Jesus Christ as ascended to the right hand of the Father to the end of ruling the cosmos for the benefit of the Church;

Ephesians 1:20 That power is the same as the mighty strength 20 he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, 21 far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. 22 And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, 23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.

Maybe it’s just me but “appointed Him to be head over everything for the Church” seems pretty clear, unambiguous, and conclusive.

What the Biblical Christian looks for, following Scripture, which teaches that Christ must reign until all things are put under His feet,” is a cosmic and exhaustive redemption that redeems all as far as the curse is found. To deny that suggests that Adam’s rebellion was more totalistic than Christ’s restoration. Apart from that looming triumphant reality, happening eventually in space and time before the second advent, amillennialists seem to be teaching and believing that Satan’s wound is greater than God’s ability to heal the wound of the fall.

Now, I can hear in my mind, the accusations from the amen corner of the party of the Reformed Church who delights in defeat and glories in the anticipation of Christians being martyred so that all the more glory can be gained that I am guilty of “a theology of glory,” as if confidence in Christ’s victory is a sin I should be shamed on for believing, or failing that D. G. Hart is sarcastically chirping somewhere in Hillsdale on how I am “immanentizing the eschaton,” as if the R2K gang who can’t shoot straight aren’t they themselves creating their own future here on earth by teaching that the future for Christians is nothing but “gloom, despair, and agony on me.” By cracky, according to the pessimistic gang anyone “expecting the victory and triumph of the church militant have sure and certain proven that they are possessed by demons.”

Here is the skinny of optimistic postmillennialism. We are not in a power contest between God and Satan. God, in Christ, has won the victory and the victory is now, though we understand the nowness of this victory has a not yetness about it. However, the “not-yetness” of the Kingdom, while being frontloaded in the Old Covenant has now given way to the “nowness” of the Kingdom being frontloaded with the coming of Christ and His bringing in of the Kingdom of God. This was the message of all the healings done by the Lord Christ, as well as the demon castings. All of this shouted, “The King and the Kingdom has arrived,” and that Kingdom brought in by the King is just as real today as it was in the 1st century Palestine during His ministry. Again, we get it, that there is more yet to come of this current nowness of the Kingdom but it is simply the case that the more that which is to come does not in any way diminish the now that is currently present among us. With the triumph of Christ in His obedient life, crucifixion, resurrection, ascension, and session, the ongoing, increasing and progressive sanctification of the cosmos has never ceased.

Oh, to be sure, the sanctification of the cosmos ebbs and flows in the course of history. There are dark times where it looks like the wound given at the fall will consume all of mankind. The tide of optimism recedes because man’s ugliness is more pronounced. However, in God’s economy the high tide of healing (salvation) is still ahead of us and eventually the tide will come in so high, before the return of our great Captain and Liege-Lord, that the knowledge of the Lord will cover the earth as the water covers the seas.

The R2K lads and the foaming at the mouth amillennialists point at all the wrongs in the world. Our only response is to sing to them;

This is my Father’s world:
Oh, let me ne’er forget
That though the wrong seems oft so strong,
God is the ruler yet.
This is my Father’s world,
The battle is not done:
Jesus who died shall be satisfied,
And earth and Heav’n be one.

Satan will be put down just as decidedly in space and time before Christ’s return as he was put down at the cross, resurrection, ascension, and session. If we do not believe this then by way of implication we seem to be saying that Mephistopheles is more powerful in the context of world history, than the Church of Jesus Christ of which He is the Head. There’s an expression for this view of history: It’s called “defeatism” – it’s the doctrine that Jesus the Christ is a loser in history; it’s the doctrine that the bride of Christ is a loser of history,” and it is the doctrine embraced by premillennialists and amillennialists.

Let it never be named among the called and battle ready troops of Jesus Christ.

Statistics in on Juneteenth Celebration

“During the Juneteenth celebration just completed, authorities now tell us that bike theft, and sucker punching white people reached all time highs during this year’s celebrations. Rape and shoplifting however, did not reach all time highs. Experts say that the intense heat in the Midwest most likely accounted for the fall off in those numbers.”

Even though Juneteenth is over keep in mind that it is White Boy Summer all Summer long, and the greatest crime of WBS is intense mocking of Doug Wilson and his CREC lackeys.

Democracy vs. Constitutional Republic

Here CNN tries to convince the low information voters that the US is a Democracy. They do so by mocking voters who understand, at some level, that the US is not a Democracy, though being low information voters they can not articulate why.

https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2024/06/17/cnns_donie_osullivan_some_trump_supporters_say_america_is_a_republic_not_a_democracy.html

Let’s see if we can help CNN and these low information voters out.

We are NOT a Democracy. Democracy is a leveling political system that is characterized by a strict majority vote. It is the rule of the mob. Democracy is always first and foremost concerned with equality and is a system that guarantees the rule of those who always serve the interests of the lowest common denominator in the population. Democracy is the aristocracy of the bad, the false, and the envious.

We are a Constitutional Republic. A Constitutional Republic is system whereby the mob cannot rule, limited as they are by the strictures of the US Constitution and by the inherent checks and balances within the system. A Constitutional Republic is always first and foremost concerned with liberty for the man who walks in terms of the law and constraint against the man who walks contrary to the law. A Constitutional Republic is the aristocracy of the meritorious – a meritocracy.

The Founders warned gravely against Democracy. Edmund Randolph, delegate to the Constitutional Convention from Virginia said;

“The general object of the Convention was to provide a cure for the follies and fury of Democracies.”

Elbridge Gary and Roger Sherman, delegates from Massachusetts and Connecticut urged the Constitutional Convention to create a system that would eliminate the evils that flow from the excess of Democracy.

Alexander Hamilton, Constitutional delegate from New York said;

“We are now forming a Republican Government. real liberty is not found in democracy. If we incline too much to democracy we shall soon shoot into a monarchy.”

John Adams said;

“Democracy will envy all, contend with all, endeavor to pull down all and when by chance it happens to get the upper hand for a short time democracy will be revengeful, bloody, and cruel.”

The Constitution itself requires a Republican form of government for all states. This indicates that originally we were a Republic of Republics.

When Benjamin Franklin was asked ” “Well, Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?” Franklin replied; “A Republic if you can keep it.”

Now to be sure our Constitutional Republic had a touch of democracy in it with the direct election of House members by voters but that was where the democracy impulse ended. Originally, there was no direct vote of US Senators, no direct vote for US Presidents and no vote at all for SCOTUS appointees.

The US was never a democracy though the lugenpresse and the lying Politicians (but I repeat myself) constantly talk about how “We are a democracy.”

We were never formed to be a democracy. However, that is indeed where we have matriculated over the course of years. The US Constitution is no longer a check on the vicious use of raw power. The 17th amendment inched us more towards a direct democracy. The stripping of state’s rights also pushed us towards a direct democracy. The 9th and 10th amendments, which were bulwarks against democracy are completely irrelevant.

So, while it is true that according to original intent these united States were never intended to form a democracy, that is largely where we have come to. Indeed, one might be inclined to observe that we are a democratically elected Kakistocracy — that is a government run by the worst, least qualified, or most unscrupulous citizens.

Because we have been a Kakistocracy for so long now, all that is left to choose from to elect to governmental office are derelicts, mountebanks, and perverts. Because we, as a people, have been in a Kakistocracy for so long all of our Institutions have become corrupt, feeble, cancerous and unprincipled. Living in the US now is like living among Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves, and the One Hundred Twenty perverts.

Even the visible Church is now a Kakistocracy. It weeds out the best men, or, failing that so intimidates otherwise good men they dare not lift their voice against the ecclesial Kakistocracy less they lose their livelihood. Just ask Michael Spangler, Ryan Turnipseed or Bret McAtee and they will tell you that the intent of “accountability” that church government was suppose to foster is now simply a mechanism whereby good men can be held accountable to wicked or small men and so be squashed.

However, lest we stray to far from our original intent, this nation was never intended to be a democracy and if CNN ever sticks a microphone in your face to mock you, you now have the ammunition to mock them right back… mock them for being so stupid that they could possibly ever suggest that US was founded to be a democracy.

Finally, after reading this, perhaps the next time you hear Joe Biden or the Democrats bleat about how if we elect Trump to be president we could “lose our democracy,” your response will be,

“Dear God, I hope so.”
