What does it mean that a nation founded on the sacred ideas of personal liberty and individual responsibility and where the Government, as a controlling agency, was severely restricted in what it could control, has now become a nation where the citizenry is forced, by the Government, to fund pharmaceutical abortifacients for licentious, irresponsible but sacred whoredom, where the Government, by way of policy, holds minorities as sacred to the point where they can only be the victims of White oppression and never the victims of their own desultory and self-immolating behavior, and where the Government worships at the shrine of perversion, forcing the citizenry to embrace, as a culture, the embrace of sacred sodomy?

What does it mean when a Nation, who once believed that Justice was blind — thus suggesting that Lady Justice was sacred precisely because she saw neither status, condition, or skin, when applying the law, — is now a nation which has advanced a woman to the Supreme Court who could defy the founding sentiment of a blind Lady Justice with the words, “I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn’t lived that life?” What does it mean when a Nation who ruled that Dred Scott had no rights as a citizen is now a nation where a son of Dred Scott’s people will not prosecute the New Black Panthers for denying citizens the right to vote? What does it mean when a Nation, which once extended sympathy to Khazars because of oppression against them is now a nation that can not criticize the Kahazars because of their oppression of us?

What does it mean when a Nation was so literate that its farmers could easily follow “The Federalists Papers” as they came out as a series of Newspaper articles but now is so illiterate that newspapers are written for a 7th grade reading level? What does it meant when rural America could listen to the Lincoln vs. Douglas debates go for hours and follow every nuance of freewheeling unmediated debate yet today has a hard time understanding sound bite campaign tripe? What does it mean that we have gone from Jonathan Edwards, Samuel Davies and Archibald Alexander to Joel Osteen, Rick Warren, and Tim Keller?

Recently a videotape was released of B. Hussein Obama lauding and embracing Dr. Derrick Bell, a key advocate of what is known as “critical race theory.” Most Americans, being too busy watching the NCAA Basketball tournament do not realize how significant the discovery of this videotape is. So, because Americans don’t care to understand matters of such grave import if they don’t lend a quick and easy explanation and are too apathetic or preoccupied to realize that the man who is called “President” has drank deeply from the well of Cultural Marxism, this entry is committed to setting forth, in an easy to understand way, why Obama, first lauding and embracing Dr. Derrick Bell and later requiring the reading of Bell’s works as assignment for his students is a matter to note.

Since some Americans learn better visually then by reading, I offer the below video for their consumption.

For the rest we start our examination of Obama and Bell by noting that the critical race theory that Bell created and Obama embraced starts with an understanding that critical race theory is a subset of critical theory, or to put it another way, critical race theory is the critical theory of Cultural Marxism as applied to race.

For a brief explanation of cultural Marxism of which critical theory is a tool in order to advance see,

Critical theory became a key tool used by the Cultural Marxists who desired to overthrow the Christian influenced social order of Western Civilization. Critical theory was a tool of destruction introduced by a chap named Max Horkheimer in an essay entitled “Traditional and Critical Theory.” In Horkheimer’s essay we learn that Critical theory, in line with it’s Marxist pedigree, is a social theory dedicated not only toward critiquing a culture and prevailing social order but also to transforming it and changing it. In the creative hands of the Marxists the aim was to change and transform Western civilization. When considering this aspect of Critical theory keep in mind that Marx said that “the point is not merely to understand the world, but to change it.” Critical theory was oriented towards that goal.

Critical race theory then was, as we have already said, a subset of this Critical theory as applied to race, and as it is applied to race its purpose is to critique the idea of advance by way of merit and ability as merely a guise used by whites to maintain their power and dominance over blacks. Bell’s writings suggest that merit and natural ability were not the real reason for advantage but rather were the social construct used to explain white advantage over blacks. The consequence of Bell’s writings is that the reader was instructed that the differentiation in the degree of ownership is accounted for, not by sweat and hard work, but rather by institutional racism. The natural conclusion of this thinking was that the social injustice engendered by such a social construct racist system can only be rectified by a redistributionist economic model where whites have property stripped from them in order to give to the minority oppressed. This was coupled with the zealous pursuit of quotas and set asides, as well as a post-modern view of truth where a matter is true only if advances the critical race theory cause and a matter is false only if it does not advance the anti-white, anti-Christian, cultural Marxist agenda of Derrick Bell. Keep in mind in all this that this is the same worldview out of which B. Hussein Obama is living as evidenced not only by his support of Bell but only by his close relationship with Rev. Jeremiah Wright (who himself was a disciple of James Cone and was inspired by Derrick Bell) and by his close relationship with Bill Ayers.

Ayers affection for critical race theory is heard in the below 67 second clip.

So we begin to see a tapestry being woven here. The Dunham family moved in 1955 to Mercer Island Seattle in order to put daughter Stanley Ann Dunham in a school that they knew was being led by self-admitted and known Communists John Stenhouse. There Ann Dunham was instructed by two teachers Val Fobear and Jim Winterman where subject matters such as Atheism, Materialism and Communism were covered. Not only did the Dunham’s send Ann to this school they also attended a Church led by Communist Stenhouse called “The Little Red Church on the Hill” where Stenhouse would teach on Marx’s planks of communism. Of course Stanley Ann Dunham would become the mother of B. Hussein Obama, who in his book, “Dreams Of My Father,” speaks of a mentor named “Frank” (Frank Marshall Davis). Davis was a known communist who belonged to a party subservient to the Soviet Union. In fact, the 1951 report of the Commission on Subversive Activities to the Legislature of the Territory of Hawaii identified Obama’s mentor as a Communist Party USA member. What’s more, anti-communist congressional committees, including the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC), accused Davis of involvement in several communist-front organizations. While in college Obama has high esteem for cultural Marxist Dr. Derrick Bell, and later assigns Bell’s writings to the students of his classes. We also know that eventually Obama ends up in Chicago teaching the techniques of Cultural Marxist, Saul Alinsky (Rules For Radicals). During the 2008 Presidential campaign Obama has to disavow his pastor of 20 years Rev. Jeremiah Wright, who is himself a cultural Marxist of the Black Liberation theology variety and who practices in the pulpit, what might be called, “critical preaching theory.” Once elected Obama surrounds himself with Czars and personnel who have some connections to one Marxist variant or another (Van Jones, Donald Berwick, Leon Panetta, Kevin Jennings, Anita “Mao is my hero” Dunn, Eric “I don’t prosecute Panthers who are Black” Holder, etc.). In Obama’s first two Supreme Court appointments he places a woman who worked closely with Dr. Derrick Bell and a woman who gave a critical race theory soundbite when she said, “I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn’t lived that life,” Finally throw in in this context Obama’s wife’s comment about “for the first time being proud of America” and one begins to see not merely a narrative but a Novel the size of “War and Peace,” that tells the Obama story. Really, does B. Hussein Obama have to walk up to a microphone and say, “I am a cultural Marxist,” in order for voters to understand that B. Hussein Obama is a Cultural Marxist who isn’t particularly fond of non cultural Marxist white people?

B. Hussein Obama’s whole career — his whole identity — has been shaped by Marxist / Cultural Marxist categories. From his Mother’s training in Communism, to his mentoring relationship with Frank Marshall Davis, to his affection for Dr. Derrick Bell, to his work as a communist agitator, er, I mean, community organizer of the Saul Alinsky stripe, to his friendship with known Marxists Bill Ayers and Bernadin Dohrn, to his Chief Executive appointments to various offices Obama while clearly Black on the outside is clearly red on the inside.

Most people, still today, think that all entertainment to do with movies and drama is there for nothing more than their entertainment. Such has never been the case. The greatest social messages are promoted through movies, high drama, and television, through the fixation of emotive sequences that drive emotional responses as opposed to logical or factual sequences which would drive rational response. Through the emotive sequences points are pushed across in an emotional way which registers and fixes in the mind. The emotional content provided by entertainment media is extraordinarily important. Rather than going through an actual discussion or argument using logic and facts, entertainment media that calls for a passive response is a downloading through fiction that bypasses the discursive parts of the mind. The parts of the mind that exercise critical thinking are in hibernation mode when we become sponge receptors of whatever message is being communicated via story time media. This is particularly true when a generation is trained from the youngest age to soak in front of the television. What the aggressive media does in its entertainment format is to encode messages that are downloaded into the passive recipient without having to engage in debate or even explanation.

With the advent of the National media, the tools of the media have been used for dominion via the exercise of social engineering as expressed by a message that comes in a host of different venues or story-lines but which all reinforce the same overarching narrative.

Now throw into this mix the tactic of diversion. Not only would there be a constant barrage of the same message delivered through an aggressive media to passive recipients but also there would be created diversions that would channel off potential resistance by channeling that aggressiveness into harmless allegiances. H. G. Wells before the advent of National Sports teams talked about “Arenas,” Wells offered, over a hundred years ago, that arenas could be set up all over the world for sports. Now at that time when Wells offered that idea, sports was something that children participated in while, exceptions notwithstanding, adults would go on to adult things. It was unimanigable during Wells time that there would be a need for adult sports on the scale we have it today. Wells idea at the time was to eventually create a “Sports culture” for the men, using a tribal system where men would form allegiances according to a tribal system where men in set geographic areas would exhaust their aggressiveness in a vicarious identification with “their team.” Because men would be more disengaged then ever before from their own destiny a “Sports culture” was developed for them in order to provide an outlet for aggression that might otherwise be channeled in things that really were matters of consequence for responsible male citizens of a commonwealth. Between the passivity created by the entertainment model as well as the messages downloaded for conformity by the elites, and the pseudo and abstract aggressiveness aligned with a tribal team men would be effectively neutered in leadership and castrated in resistance. This in turn would allow the cultural gatekeeper elites to have their way in terms of setting the agenda for the social order.

All of this was reinforced by the majority of the populace being linked to the same message entertainment conduits. People would judge their own sanity by bouncing “their” ideas — ideas learned from their entertainment downloads — off of their neighbors who themselves have been downloaded with the same messages with the result that a reciprocity of comfort would be afforded to neighbors by neighbors, quite without realizing that they all had received these same ideas from those responsible for creating and making and marketing culture. It is quite irrelevant if this programming is true or whether it corresponds to reality, or whether it coheres as long as everyone agrees among themselves what a great ideas they all share.

Once this regimen is successfully put into place a Matrix is created that is almost impossible to get out of since virtually everyone is sharing the same deception. Certainly, there will be some margin for disagreement and often that disagreement will be fanned to life by the Message Masters in order to advance some new Message but by and large the citizenry is all hooked to the same message life support system.

The Cultural gatekeepers have been practicing this game for decades now using men such as Edward Bernays to learn how to create and then control mass psychology. Propaganda has become a science and advertising a art as the culture creators pull the strings on the Marionettes of John Q. Public.

The only thing way that this can be challenged is if individuals and families once again take it upon themselves to enter into the great conversation that has been happening over centuries. People must once again read the great books and then they must converse among themselves as they get together to re-establish genuine community that is flavored with what Augustine said or what Chrysostom offered or what Dante offered etc. Until our conversations reach again beyond the American Idol contestants or the latest episode of “Good Christian Bitches,” we will continue to live in the Matrix and will turn whatever way our Masters pull our strings.
