Modern Marxism in Disguise

Everyone knows that the most basic premise of Marxist theory is the assumption that class struggle exists and two groups of people emerge from it: the exploiters and the exploited. In classical Marxist dogma these were the bourgeoisie and the proletariat - striving against one another. In modern times this has already been recognized as pure idiocy (yes, this is the technical term for Marx's theories) by anyone who has a functional brain. The evil Marxists, however, have not given up yet. They know the theories of their idol (whom Yuri Maltsev aptly called 'a genius of evil') don't hold water, so they have to apply them to all sort of different phenomena and hope they stick somewhere. Usually this is done when at least two groups are said to 'antagonize' each other. The two most common applications of Marxist theory today are the theory of racial struggle and gender struggle. Apparently the races hate each other and so do the genders. Believe it or not, most people in the neo-liberal movement in America today (what is called the social-democratic movement in Europe) have more in common with Robert Mugabe than they do with the old idealist of liberty such as the American Founding Fathers. There is an easy litmus test by which we can tell socialists (Marxists) from normal members of society. Socialists will always emphasize some sort of struggle or threat and where non exists, they will just make one up. This has not changed from the time of Marx and Engels, through Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, to today's inheritors of this Marxist legacy. It is only the focus that has changed. Isn't it curious how the liberals are always the ones to point out racial, economic, or gender disparities within groups? Race, socioeconomic status, or gender questions are not something Classical liberals or today's libertarians concern themselves with. Talking about race issues is actually a way to perpetuate them because it causes people to notice the most minute and silly details in such relations. There can be no doubt there is less racism today than there was one hundred years ago, but if we listened to 'them' we would think today's world is inhabited by racists and poor discriminated groups. I do not buy into such rhetoric because I consider myself as having progressed beyond them. Let primitives discuss what they will, but us, the natural aristocrats, should keep at an arm's length at least. Propaganda will always be propaganda and Newspeak will always be Newspeak, but giving these people power will only let them implement their sick schemes into society. Marxist will always be racists and let's let them be so, as long as they stay out of our hair.

Let's ignore them, stand up for ourselves, and say as loudly and proudly as John Randolph once said: "I am an aristocrat. I love liberty, I hate equality."
