Wokeness is out of control. In less than a decade, a single ideologically driven cohort has captured the entire interlocking infrastructure of cultural and intellectual life. Every major institution has been brought down on one supplicatory knee by cultish, self-righteous, zealous, uncompromising, censorious, judgmental, dogmatists who celebrate neo-Stalinist uniformity of opinion and view dissent and diversity of thought as existential threats to their narrow worldview.

Wokeness is in control. Massively funded. Usual suspects as you mention.

Proper take.

It is out of control, but as you say, perfectly in control, measured by experts in the field of cultural manipulation, evil students of Jung, who bastardized his discoveries to bring this abonimantion into our social sphere.

I like you post, however the "March through the Institutions" has been ongoing for many decades.

As explained by Robert Welch in the 1950s, G. Edward Griffin in 1969 and by Yuri Bezmenov in 1980. The Communist Party USA used to march in the streets of our largest cities with their banners. The Party is still alive and doing well. They installed Joey in his first job as Senator from Delaware in 1973.

I'm probably just blowing into the ether, but would someone explain, or argue, how this thinking has been able to infect large, multinational corporations?

I can agree with Lindsay, and how this is all just perverted Marxism, but if anything, that just underscores my incredulity on why large capitalist corporations would lose billions in share value to promote this idiocy?

James is a gift, and has undertaken the intense, extensive research required to fully expose this destructive, pernicious ideology. His book "The Marxification of Education" reveals the harmful indoctrination being undertaken in an increasingly broad swath of America's public schools....

I watched Lindsay's excellent talk after seeing aldous huxtable's comment in this morning's funnies. So happy you highlighted it in a separate piece ~ 👍.

I agree, this was a crystalline lecture explaining how Marxism was repackaged to make it palatable to Westerners—to immense success.

I didn’t realize James is at Substack—thanks for the heads-up, Robert!

Also nails it. The Atheistic roots of Marxism from Hegel as refracted by Gramsci and Lukać up to Alinsky.

This is an absolutely brilliant speech. A couple weeks ago when I stumbled across it I posted it as a comment on my Facebook page, with this in the main post (I didn't want to risk it getting censored): "'Woke' is Marxism on steroids. Marxism wants to equalize material & economic well-being. 'Woke' adds social & cultural capital to its redistributionist idiocy."

I like mnemonic devices: SCEM, a variation of SCAM. I'm mentioned the idea to several friends that SCEM is Marxism squared, and accounts for the Americanized Chinese Cultural Revolution we are living.

Great find, Dr. Malone. With your help, I hope others help it gain traction.

Thank you ever so much for sharing this with us! I do get the points the video makes. I need to go through it again to better assimilate and commit to the perspectives it provides. I surely agree you have been tackling these issues head on with commitment and vigor. That's among the things I so appreciate as a member of the community you've provided us. Will be armoring up with these perspectives and watching for opportunities to make a difference!

As an aside, was checking out the GETTR Tok videos. One was of Bourla (our Pharma demon) in front of a WEF meeting wall in a white chair. He set off with all the Pharma goodies he would be providing. However, I did catch his final words of the segment. He said he felt they were on the way to reducing the World Population by 50 percent by 2023. Those videos come and go each time I log on, but will be watching for it if it shows again.

You Doctors are hugely appreciated! Take the best of care! You're making major contributions!

"The reason I told him I sleep like a baby is that I’m doing something about it and know I’m doing something about it. This sort of sleep-stealing anxiety comes from being nervous and feeling unable to do anything, or through the gnawing of your conscience when you know you should be doing something but can’t. If you know you’re doing what you should, it won’t chew at you and keep you up at night."

-----------

This is a great way to put it. I'm currently working on an article that explains exactly why "screaming" is important. Being able to sleep at night is certainly up there!

To state the obvious, in my view, we have a tyrannical government that has used its powers to allow these minority groups be it trans, gay, lesbian, blm, etc. to go after the majority, mainly Christian’s, using their weakness of tolerance and it’s openness to diversity against itself. We are all living through and witnessing a revolution which is made to take down (fundamentally change) America. I truly believe that this mainly democrat Marxist movement has shown that they cannot live and function in a free society. There are people that just can’t and should not be allowed to live in free society. The only solution to these revolutionaries will have to be a drastic severing of them from our society. Prosecutions and or removal of all who have participated in the witch hunts of political opponents, the suppression of freedom of speech, the suppression of the freedom to assemble, suppression of freedom of religion, etc.. Our bill of rights should never be allowed to be trampled ever again, it is the peoples sacred rights. J.Goodrich

You are a witness James, as we all are. It was approximately 100 years in the making - a slow creep works as each generation has a memory starting point. We've been warned: 1950s - JBS, 1960s - G. Edward Griffin,1980s - Yuri Bezmenov of the methods; propaganda and mind control, cultural subversion and escape; listed ever step for the takedown of every institution. 2000s - Alan Watt, Glenn Beck and other. No one generation can stop it.

This is known Dr. Malone; We know who we are fighting. Some people call it “wokeism” Marxism, socialism, progressivism, I call it communism. What’s happening at the southern border is the Cloward-Piven thesis coming out of Columbia U. The weaponization of our institutions is pure Obama who gets it from Alinsky who said reward ur friends, punish ur enemies, he also said never let a crisis go to waste. Alinsky spent a lot of time in Chicago, Is that not the putrid obama hellhole. The problem is: half the population is asleep at the wheel or in denial. We have a criminal Regime who is working around the clock to block the release of info; we have a mockingbird press that supports the Regime. WTH are we to do??? One step forward & a punch in the face. I do not see us winning & I am not a pessimist. This is why obama/with his puppet Biden stole the election. Everything since has been to undo & destroy America & Americans. AND yes, COVID was part of this scam, deceit, fraud & murder.

If you have any ideas how we get out of this kill box they have herded us into I would love to hear your ideas. Sincerely, Basina

I choose to call it Statism, and it was little different under disparate pre marxism "religious" rule and pre marxism sectarian brutality.

..." History proves that the mytho-poetic idealism of statism only serves to legislate and codify “Power over Others”

Marx was a communist. We should not be surprised now, listening to James, because there never was a failure to communicate. I'm old enough to have learned about it in high school, when it was still taught. In the early 1960s I joined a group called Up With People. We performed at USOs within commuting distance and another group performed overseas. My father called it a Commie venture. Fast forward two decades, I realized he was right.

No, Up With People was an anti-war effort = learn how to live without killing people you disagree with - honoring sovereignty, law, and the holy sanctity of life.

We can agree to disagree about its charter. UWP was an offshoot of MRA without its religious underpinnings, as suggested by Eisenhower. It was a US propaganda group. We went to USOs in support of military members. From the mid 60s thru the 70s its influence was to discredit the liberal counterculture. UWP were the clean-cut, short-haired kids singing upbeat, positive-minded songs in contrast to the protest movement with its hippie nuances, violence, and vitriol. Its goal was normalcy, status quo, government is good, American is good. Look who it sent overseas! As a non-profit, it was well-funded by corporations that wanted its branding. As with most inventions, it was eventually hijacked and became a tool for a different undertaking. If its members or those that watched/listened thought the message back then was anti-Vietnam war - so be it.

Shelley, do you still have a copy of UWP's charter? I've never seen it. Yes, you could label their message US propaganda, in that it was definitely pro-USA, peace, upbeat, goodness, and not anti anything. They were calling to people's best, not our worst - not hate. Not even anti-Vietnam war. Instead: pro-peace at every level - inner and outer.

Sorry they were hijacked - I always wondered why they disappeared. They gave it a whole-hearted try.

V.I. Lenin wrote: "Give me Four years to teach the children and the seeds I have sown (planted) will never be rooted out". As Dr. Lindsay underscores in his eye opening expose on the origins of the (WOKE) "culture" (that has quite possibly TERMINALLY infected mankind), generations of TENURED elite "educators" throughout Western civilization have - for whatever reason - deliberately aided, abetted, promoted, championed, and sanctified EVERY abstract, looney Marxist "thought" and literally spoon-fed Marxist (and Maoist) hogwash, gibberish and gobbledegook to school age children on a GLOBAL scale STARTING a half century ago, and It has gotten MUCH WORSE circa 2023 AD!

Its almost as if some mental WUHAN like virus wafts through the atmosphere and terminally infects

the BRAIN MATTER of (a) preponderance of human beings in the academic pursuits - who are supposedly dedicated to "teaching" their charges mental skills with which they can individually seek truthful answers to questions regarding life, morality, honesty, history, culture, folkways and mores', et al, - via critical THINKING - rather than the odious rigid conformity of mind-numbing Leftist propaganda dressed up as "social-justice", "equity", "inclusion", "Diversity" and radical environmentalist nonsense; in addition to abject slander of the ENTIRE so-called "white" race of human beings, NONE of which since the beginning of the species had ANY choice or say of what his or her skin color would be.

That almost the ENTIRE GLOBAL print and TV media are TOTALLY in on the Woke insanity is mind boggling - can it be only because of money and power (they) bullhorn the Global Collective Leftist propaganda - in any and ALL modes 24/7/365?? again, smells like some organic mental cancer has infected and metastasized (in)the brain matter of those that are part of, condone, support or champion the Collective Left mind set and world view as absolutely sacrosanct.

One pregnant question that begs a cogent answer is, IF what is happening and ACCELERATING is indeed a "mass-GLOBAL-formation" in progress, can it even be deviated at all before (mass) common sense and individual sense of SURVIVAL prevail and rid humanity of this pervading evil?

Or will it take global Armageddon to awaken humanity - or what remains of it?

Incredible and concise talk. About 5 years ago I told my wife: "They are building an army. I don't know what for, but people are being recruited". Today I see these army's built with the divisions of society. It really is the kindest people who care that have been recruited into an almost militant group that spews hate toward those that aren't yet recruited. It was this talk that put the whole picture together. "Seize the means of production" explained like the outer limits episode "to serve man" when the person decoding the aliens book with the same title yells at his friend "it is a cook book".

Thank you for posting this. I had all the pieces they just weren't connected until now.

What an enlightening talk! Those behind this agenda orchestrated China's fall to communism through the State Department by deliberately sabotaging shipments of arms, etc. to Chiang Kai-shek's Nationalist government fighting the Communists in northern China after WWII.

The 1953 Reece Commission was set up to investigate the role tax-exempt foundations may have played in this after the Edward E. Cox Commission was abandoned with Cox's sudden death. Alarm bells rang in Congress when it was discovered that the Rockefeller Foundation had financed the Institute of Pacific Relations to produce propaganda portraying Mao and Zhou Enlai simply as agrarian reformers rather than communists.

We now know it was all a lie. David Rockefeller regarded China as a great social experiment. This is Marxism made in America, just like it appears Sars-Cov2 was made in America.

Rowan Gaither, President of the Ford Foundation in 1953, told Norman Dodd of the Reece Commission, "Mr. Dodd…we shall use our grant-making power so to alter life in the United States that it can be comfortably merged with the Soviet Union."

And now the obvious aim is to 'comfortably merge' the United States with China, since they are having trouble ditching Putin.
