"Obama Exposes His
Marxist Heart of Darkness"
Dear Doves,
With all the calls for
vetting the current President from disappointed American voters,
it might just
be the President words themselves that exposed what makes this
bizarre and dangerous man tick. Why does Obama hate, reject
America and devote all his efforts to her destruction. We just
might learn the truth from reading about what experts say about
Marxism. It's certainly something that America rejects.
Agape,
Mike Curtiss
The Marxist Heart of Darkness
By Bruce Walker
Those who doubted Obama's immersion in Marxism now have a
perfect window into his soul -- namely, in the form of the
stunning class warfare remarks he recently made in Roanoke,
Virginia.
We must grasp, however, what Marxism is and what it is
not. Marxism is not a political philosophy to help the
poor at the expense of the rich, and it is not a design for a
utopian future. Marxism is simply a Heart of Darkness, a
Siamese twin of Nazism, a curse on all humanity committed to
three themes: (1) hatred, (2) misery, and (3) lying.
Marxism is neither a science nor a system of belief. It is
a rationale for seizing power and terrorizing all those who are
not its cadres. Marxism -- English Socialism, or "Ingsoc"
-- was the secular religion of George Orwell's Oceania. In
Orwell's masterpiece, 1984, the interrogator of Winston Smith
explains the goals of Ingsoc: "Power is not a mean, it is an
end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to
safeguard a revolution; one makes a revolution in order to
establish a dictatorship. The object of persecution is
persecution. The object of torture is torture. The
object of power is power."
Stefan Possony in 1953 noted: "Kinetic communism often is termed
an 'ideology,' as if the communist movement were held together
by a bond of idealism, with individuals succumbing to communism
because of its ideological attraction[.]" He further
explains that "communists are the heirs of the Mongols who
conquered, not because they had an attractive ideology, but
because they outperformed opponent in the fields of strategy and
tactics" (A Century of Conflict, Possony).
Lunacharsky, the first Soviet commissar for education,
proclaimed: "We hate Christianity and Christians; even the best
of them must be looked upon as our worst enemies. They
preach love of our neighbors and mercy, which is contrary to our
principles. Down with the love of our neighbor; what we
want is hatred" (emphasis added).
Hatred is helped when people are in pain, so creating gratuitous
misery is a goal of Marxism. A key maxim of Marxism is
"The worse, the better." The Soviets were not bashful
about announcing what they wanted: "The misery and oppression of
the masses must be intensified to an extraordinary degree"
(Sixth Party Congress of the International at Moscow).
Knickbocker, in his 1941 book about totalitarianism in Europe,
observed: "Even before the war, in both Germany and Russia, the
omnipotent, omnivorous State had devoured all but a vestige of
happiness. As the two regimes of hatred went forward along
their respective paths each lost gradually even the desire to
promote the happiness of anyone, even of its own people" (Is
Tomorrow Hitler's?, Knickerbocker).
Lenin in 1918 showed that he did not even have a plan for a
happy world: "Our party has not written a new program and the
old one is worthless. Socialism has ceased to be a dogma
just as it has ceased to be a program" (Proceedings of the Fifth
All-Russian Congress of Soviets). Such hatred naturally
led to an embrace of state terrorism against ordinary people,
and the Soviets boasted that "[t]error is the basis of Soviet
power. Terror is not an incidental act, nor an accidental
expression of government displeasure, however frequently
repeated. Terror is a system of violence, ever ready to
punish from above. It is a system of instilling fear, of
compulsion, of mass destruction elevated to the status of law"
(Our Chameleon Comrades, Gilbert).
Along with deliberate and almost indiscriminant infliction of
pain on mankind, Marxists think almost exclusively in terms of
lies. Orwell's "doublethink" and "Newspeak" well
illustrate this delusion and self-delusion. Marxists
boasted of their mendacity. Lenin wrote: "The scientific
concept, dictatorship, means nothing more nor less than power
which directly rests on violence, which is not limited by any
laws or restricted by any absolute rules." Angela
Balabanoff, general secretary of the Third Socialist
International, confirmed the dishonesty of Bolsheviks: "The
Bolshevik leaders were capable of anything to achieve their
political and factional ends" (emphasis in the original) (My
Life as a Rebel, Balabannoff).
This, then, is the enemy we face, whose present mask is
Obama. This enemy does not want people to love each other,
it does not want mankind happier, and it loathes truth as a
mortal enemy. There is a reason why Marxism has failed
everywhere and utterly, and yet some still embrace it
wholeheartedly. The Marxist Heart of Darkness has no noble
motives at all. It is jealous of joy and honor and immune
to any argument. Our only hope is in its defeat.
