I have a few visceral memories of my "education" in college in the early 2000s, at a Liberal Arts college in the United States, studying philosophy... a Marxist professor was literally breathing down my neck for questioning, doubting, and resisting her methodology. I didn't know it, at the time, what she represented, and what significance those moments had until much later—after undoing that "education". Their indoctrination methods are very powerful. Thus it takes very intelligent and abrasive, rebellious minds, to resist them. I do believe that a lot of Western
American young intellectuals, can wake up from these propagandas.
Hence the
red-pill trope, now associated with the American Republicans and MAGA movement.

That is, until you read Hegel, Marx and Marcuse. Then you see why the Left thinks they're actually doing "the right thing" by destroying all of these. It's a complicated theory, but it involves two main things:
first, the belief that history is itself a kind of "god-like" force that is inevitably progressing us toward an idealized conception of the future, but which is impeded by any form of the
status quo -- so that all existing institutions, rules, authorities, laws, morals, agreements, etc. are impediments to our progress toward glorious liberation in the future; and
second, the belief that history is properly driven forward by necessary dialectically-ordered power-conflicts, and by the shattering of the
status quo, in all cases.
This combination of naive Utopianism and conflictual Nihilism is what makes Marxism in all its forms what it is. And it explains why ordinary people get caught up in the project of rebelling against everything and destroying stuff for no apparent reason.
They actually think they
have their reasons.
And it's why they hate "conservatism" in all its forms utterly. To "conserve" is to hold on to some element of the status quo while change is going on; these jokers do not believe in retaining
anything from the past (except Hegel, Marx and Marcuse, apparently), so all conservatism is automatically "on the wrong side of history," and retrograde, and "oppressive," so far as their emotions incline them to believe. Every existing institution or tradition is a bulwark against "progress" and "justice" on the terms they expect "history" (or better, "
History", the pseudo-god) to deliver to them.
I am well-informed on those matters.
In my philosophical career thus far, I've boiled it down to Nature/Genetics, versus Nurture/Memetics. The Cultural Marxists can be exposed on the genetic level. They preach against genetics in the abstract, but practice it privately among themselves. So it's a moral double-standard. You're an "evil Nazi racist bigot!!!" (proof, look at and examine
Flasher in this thread) if you look into genetic-human-anthropology, but they themselves want to cultivate and protect their own genealogical understandings. Generally they're exposed simply by rejecting Genetics outright—it's a taboo and verboten concept in general. But if you scratch the surface slightly, the light and clarity shines through.
The proof of this claim is in how they promote genital mutilation (castration) in Western boys, breast castration in Western girls, but this propaganda is not allowed in their own private circles. So they promote an immorality to the masses, while using a different standard for themselves. This is proved further in how the Democrat 'elitists' live, behind gated communities, safely, out-of-sight of the cultural rot they cause: homelessness, fentynal drug addiction, marxism, brazen robberies, black and 'latinx' gangbanging, money laundering through politics, etc etc.

Temporarily? Maybe the re-election of somebody like Trump would slow them for four years, and maybe not much. That's what secular conservatives are hoping, I think. But I know these rebellious haters and misled-empathetic types are not going away, because they believe this nonsense with white-hot fervour, and they're going to return in some form. Marxism is really nothing but a complex articulation of a very old gnostic impulse that has been characteristic of the human race (absent God) for centuries. You can be sure it will return, even if in some new form, as soon as the latest cadre of American Marxists falls aside. They'll never give it up.
This is going to be an ongoing struggle...and I hate to tell you, but at some point, it's going to be lost. And then, the world as a whole will lose, and lose badly. You can see it coming, for sure. So your best strategy is to hold the line for now, and hope not to be part of the giant debacle that these kinds of people are going to precipitate on the human race eventually. But it's coming. It's Biblically certain. And they're quite determined to make it happen, as well.
I have hope and confidence in reason and rationality. I believe that when it comes to the "final battles", Good can triumph with a few well-placed, critical strikes. When push comes to shove, Conservatives have the true military might, consistently historically. Because in the end, the Liberal-Left, under the Marxist vanguard, have no real, actual values (children, family, morality, assets) worth fighting for. So it's a type of inversion. They claim that the Conservative-Right-Republican wants to be accepted into the 'popular' circle of Western Media, but the inverse is true at the core, no it's the liberal-left-marxists that wish they had a normal, traditional, loving family.
