Gary North: Ignore Anyone Who Says Marxism Is a Threat.

Gary North reports:

The threat to Western society today is not proletarian revolution. The threat is what Gramsci hoped it would be in the 1920's and 1930's: the slow erosion of Christianity and the social and cultural manifestations of Christianity in the West. He would rejoice at this if he were still alive. He would see this as a victory. But his analysis was not based on Marx. It was anti-Marxism to the core.

Even the socialists are wimps. They are not calling for the nationalization of every major industry. They are not calling for state banks as monopolistic sources of capital. Just because Bernie Sanders calls himself a socialist for old time's sake doesn't mean that he is a socialist. He's a welfare statist. His big program was Medicare for all. He did not call for the government ownership of every hospital, clinic, and physician's office. He would've been laughed off the stage if he had called for anything like this. He just wants tax money to go for healthcare benefits. That is not socialism. That is welfare statism.

I realize the conservatives mean well. But they don't do primary source research. They write brief articles and give speeches. They have not done their homework. In academic affairs, almost nobody does his homework. Everybody takes shortcuts in most of the areas of his life. We cannot all become specialists. I am a specialist in Marxism, and I have been for over half a century. I am telling you that there isn't any Marxism left. It's gone. There isn't a Communist under every bed, and there isn't a Marxist behind every Left-wing movement.

The New World order isn't Marxist. It's fascist. It's the alliance between government and business. It's crony capitalism. It's state capitalism. It's government bailouts funded by counterfeit digital money.

Nobody expects a proletarian revolution. That's because nobody can find any proletarians. They have been missing in action in the West since at least 1950. How many blue-collar workers do you know?

Marx had it wrong.

Marxism died. Let the dead bury the dead.
