Why Liberalism Always Leads to Race Communism

A 100% Hit Rate Should Be Concerning

Welcome back, and, as always, thank you for reading. A few ideas I have explored in past articles are worked into this article. If you have recently subscribed or missed past articles, the ones critical for thinking about this are my thoughts on the South African System and how the concept of an “Open Society” led to it, my view of the purpose of death taxes, how the Civil Rights Movement led Jimmy Carter to destroy Rhodesia, and the concept of egalitarianism being the root of our present political system. I have footnoted the relevant articles where needed, but I won’t explore those concepts in full again here, for the purposes of brevity. If you’ve missed those before, glancing through them might be helpful before reading this, as some of the terms and concepts are explained more fully in them. Finally, if you find this article valuable, it would be hugely helpful if you could like it by tapping the heart at the top of the page to like the article; that’s how the Substack algorithm knows to promote it.

In America, we now have the spectacle of a middle-class father taking the side of a murderous thug who killed his son¹ (though his family members took a more appropriate line),² and have seen “our” judges side with gangsters affiliated with murderous gangs of the MS-13 and Tren de Aragua mold.³

In Western Europe, women are arrested for defending themselves from rapists that are invariably Third World “refugees,”⁴ and are even locked up for insulting those rapists online.⁵

For example

We see God and Christ insulted by degenerate “artists,”⁶ statues of heroes torn down by rampaging mobs⁷ as statues of felonious drug addicts are erected in their stead,⁸ we see law-abiding citizens prosecuted and persecuted for defending themselves from criminals,⁹ and our tax dollars fund abominable waste¹⁰ rather than fixing potholes. We see “refugees” sexually abusing children,¹¹ murdering upstanding citizens,¹² and even eating pets¹³ . . . and the response from “our” governments has been to import ever more of them while refusing to aid citizens.¹⁴

As Pat Buchanan put it years ago in his The Death of the West, “In half a lifetime, many Americans have seen their God dethroned, their heroes defiled, their culture polluted, their values assaulted, their country invaded, and themselves demonized as extremists and bigots for holding on to beliefs Americans have held for generations.” And that was before BLM and George Floyd.

Why has that happened?

The obvious answer as to why that happens is that every Western country has, in one form or another, embraced South African-style race communism - or the combination of an “open society” with various race and class-based redistribution efforts.¹⁵ It is, in effect, the official religion¹⁶ of everywhere involved with NATO, with even “conservative” Poland embracing it and allowing mass migration from the Islamic world.¹⁷

We can see that in the rhetoric of current-year politics. What is spoken of is not a discussion of how X or Y policy is good for the native-born, but rather how tax dollars and regulatory policies can be used for advancing “fairness” and “equity.” It is, in effect, the pairing of mid-20th-century England-style taxes¹⁸ with the rhetoric of Zimbabwe’s land confiscation.¹⁹

But while Rhodesian and South African-style race communism is certainly the present state of things,²⁰ it’s not a full explanation, as similar policies were in effect — particularly in Britain — well before the Civil Rights and mass immigration apparatus went into effect.

The deeper rot, the root of the problem, is that the ideology of liberalism, and it is an ideology, leads to the embracing of race communism, as the one leads directly to the other.

While the believers of Western propaganda will take umbrage with that statement, seeing liberalism as a messianic cure to all our ills, I do think it is accurate. That is because the mindset that comes with liberalism is inherently caustic to everything that might stand as a bulwark against race communism.

The basis of the liberal ideology shows the problem. At its core, liberalism is a moral and political belief in two things: the equality of man and consent.

How those two beliefs lead to race communism is clear.

AUDIO: Why Liberalism Always Leads to Race Communism

The Equality Lie

The “equality of man,” which originally meant we are equal in the eyes of our Creator and should be equal before the law, is a major civilizational threat as a moral and political belief, as it quickly becomes the idea that all men are equal in capability, at least in the aggregate, and thus differences in outcome are evidence of discrimination.

Further, it’s pure nonsense of the sort that only comes in an egalitarian mass democracy. As Hauptman Wesreidau, the commanding officer in Guy Sajer’s The Forgotten Soldier, puts it, “[A] slick armchair philosopher can easily arouse a rabble to support an abstract proposition-for instance, ‘all men are equal’ — even when the differences between men are obviously as great as the differences between cows and roosters. Then those exhausted societies, drained by their liberty, begin to bellow about their 'convictions' and become a threat to us and to peace. It's basic wisdom to keep people like that well fed and content, if one wishes to extract even a tenth of the possible return.”²¹

That is to say, a belief in equality means a belief in a lie. As Hauptman Wesreidau, an officer of the old school, puts it, it means believing that cows and roosters are the same thing. But, as liberalism is a moral philosophy rather than a purely political one, evidence contrary to what it predicts, such as a cow producing milk rather than crowing, is seen not as evidence that the ideology is wrong but that immoral results are occurring.

Hence the disastrously bad and evil results of the American Civil Rights Movement, about which I recently spoke with Jeremy Carl. First, Reconstruction was used to equalize things at the point of a bayonet. That failed and soon became a political albatross that was discarded in the late 1870s, and so America continued paying lip service to equality while, in reality, ignoring it until the 1960s. Then, feeling compelled by the Cold War to care about equality once more,²² troops with bayonets were sent in to make sure the laws were equal. Though the laws were made equal, disparate results continued occurring. That, in turn, led to disparate impact law, which made it illegal to use any test for employment that results in “disparate impact” that is unfavorable to a “protected class.”

So, because of a belief in “equality,” we are now at a point where a black woman who shows up late to her job 50 times can win a “racism” lawsuit against her employer.²³ Similarly, it means the Department of Justice’s Community Relations Services covering up anti-white hate crimes in the name of “mediation,” but then encouraging the George Floyd riots.²⁴ To do otherwise would be to deny human equality.

For example…

The same is true across the West. In Britain, it meant doing nothing about “grooming gangs” because it was Muslim immigrants who were raping British girls; no one wanted to be called “racist” and so horrific sexual abuse of British girls continued unabated.²⁵ In Germany, it means harsh penalties for those who call out crimes committed by Muslims, while the rapists themselves, nearly all of whom are Muslims, are sentenced less harshly.²⁶

And on and on it goes. As Curtis Yarvin put it in his An Open Letter to Open-Minded Progressives, "[T]here is crime everywhere, but the most brutal and the violent crimes without clear motives are almost exclusively black on white. This is one more thing the government denies and even labels you as racist if you say it. It may not be put too strongly to say it is very nearly government sanctioned.” The government must sanction it because to do otherwise would be to indicate that people are not all equal and that there are indeed chasm-sized differences between population groups and even inside population groups.

But that is not just true of now; it was true of liberalism a century and a quarter ago, too. When Churchill, as a Liberal politician, rammed through the Parliament Bill and People’s Budget alongside Lloyd George and PM Asquith, he did so because he and his fellow Liberals saw it as “unfair” that the peerage should have so much inherited wealth and power.²⁷ But because groups are not equal (even today the old Anglo-Norman peerage is remarkably good at holding onto wealth and influence),²⁸ setting that process in motion meant decades of class warfare, high taxes, and immense regulatory burdens as the state tried to snuff out the differences between the peerage and the working class. All it ever did was get close to making them equally poor, but even that wasn’t a success.²⁹

So, while proponents of liberalism claim that the “equality” aspect is about making men equal before the law, that’s not how it plays out in practice. Rather, it plays out as egalitarianism, as the forcing of equal outcomes on very unequal people and people groups.³⁰ Such is what we saw in Zimbabwe in a clear distillation of race communism,³¹ what we are seeing in the West as we embrace Zimbabwification,³² and what we saw in the early 1900s when Liberalism was at the apex of its political power.³³

Consent and Destroyed Ties

The other core belief of liberalism is that there should be no unchosen bonds, that any ties that bind because of heritage or history ought to be cast into Mount Doom and forever destroyed in the name of “freedom” of “consent” and of “choice.”

Hence the destruction of Southern Africa in the name of fighting “racism,” the near-total adoption by even today’s “conservatives” of everything from allowing “gay marriage” to attacking colonialism,³⁴ from accepting no-fault divorce³⁵ to the general acceptance of transgenderism. In short, everything that stands as a rejection of unchosen bonds is seen as moral, and everything that defends those bonds is seen as immoral. The heart of liberalism, in this respect, is that there should be no unchosen bonds.

Predictably, destroying the unchosen bonds that have existed for many millennia is a recipe for disaster for the same reason that removing Chesterton’s Fence³⁶ is a mistake. Those bonds are there for a reason. The nuclear family, gender, property rights, etc. exist in the West for a reason. Destroying them in the name of morality is, in effect, destroying the West itself and thus leads to predictably unpleasant outcomes.

Noting as much, Auron MacIntire said, “Maybe I'm missing something but the consistent problem with freeing things both economic and social from their original human bonds seems to be that this reliably results in their centralization under more horrifically abstract and inhuman forces. This is why libertarians keep supporting decentralization in the name of liberty but keep getting gay race communism once those pesky bonds are loosed.”³⁷

As an anecdote, the Soviets found this out the hard way. With the initial Revolution came a total liberalization of marriage laws, and no-fault divorce and every other formerly abhorrent thing was allowed.³⁸ That was such a disaster from every perspective that it was all rolled back within a matter of years, and by the end of the Cold War, the Soviet Union had more conservative marriage laws than America, thanks in large part to Reagan.³⁹

Yet today, we’re taught that obliterating the concept of marriage via no-fault divorce is a good thing, as it allows the undoing of a bond that one party wants out of. That is liberalism incarnate.

Hence the Race Communism

It is easy to see where that all leads, as we are at the end of the road. DEI is good because it limits differences in outcomes between groups.⁴⁰ Half of marriages ending in divorce is good because it destroys a bond that became non-consensual. And so on. If an outcome is leveled or bond destroyed, it is a good thing.

The big problem is that such outcomes seem to be the natural outcome of liberalism. The train is unstoppable, and always leads to the same sort of perdition. There is no stopping in 1950, 1980, or 1990, as many now want: the same process that made those periods what they were is what soon destroyed them and consigned them to the dustbin. Once enough bonds were broken and outcomes equalized to create those eras people liked, more bonds were soon being undone and tall poppies whacked,⁴¹ thus creating ever more deracinated, liberal worlds.

Hence today. Such is why parents are apologizing to the murderers of their children, women are locked up for defending themselves from rapists, and <6% of the top jobs in America went to white guys in the aftermath of the George Floyd riots.⁴² Equality condemned us to such an outcome. Like the universal suffrage to which liberalism condemned us, it’s all a suicide pact,⁴³ and the main debate between “conservatives” and progressives is how quickly the suicide ought to come.

Where liberalism leads

This has been a problem for quite a while, not only in England but in America. As Robert Lewis Dabney, a Presbyterian theologian and the chief of staff to Stonewall Jackson put it, “American conservatism is merely the shadow that follows Radicalism as it moves forward towards perdition. It remains behind it, but never retards it, and always advances near its leader.”

The key, then, to escaping the disastrously egalitarian and deracinated present is to return to the period before liberalism, to think openly and honestly about what other systems there are. Communism and fascism failed miserably, liberalism has created a present that is largely comfortable but otherwise disastrous, and it’s time for something better.

I tend to think, as discussed before, that the better alternative is governance by the gentry,⁴⁴ as was long successful in the Western world in the days before Liberalism began its vise grip on our minds, but we’ll see what we’ll see what happens.
