In the fall of 2015, a rather curious incident took place in the Knesset. A leader of the Arab party (Balad), Jamal Zahalka, furiously attacked the Left. “You won’t even greet me. You are a racist!…The far right is amicable at least: they say hello and smile at you. Everyone in the Labor is a racist. You’ve invented racism!”
The Left has conveniently forgotten the incident: they knew exactly what Zahalka meant by that. Genuine ideological racism transformed long ago into their worldview and their prerogative, concurrently.
Democratic ideals, social justice and tolerance don’t rule the world anymore. A new ideology – a successor of the failed totalitarian ideologies of the past century — governs the soul of the West, and it’s called Identity Politics.
The product of a vicious love of Red and Brown dogmas, it is pseudo-scientific, and is dividing people into racial-class categories with a rigid hierarchy. White Christians and Jews — exploiters a priori, the embodiment of financial manipulation and conspiracy – are at the lower level of the social pyramid. The second level of this hierarchy is occupied by people with various pathologies (homosexuals, transgenders, disabled) and women, who by default belong to the oppressed class. They resemble the gigantic peasant masses in the writings of Marxists: deprived, but hardly aware of their own unhappiness due to the absence of “class consciousness.” “Proletarian masses” represented by the Third World (from Venezuela to Bangladesh) and suppressed by white imperialism are positioned in the third level. The top of the social pyramid is occupied by the vanguard of the “global progressive forces” (such as the Communist party or National Socialist German Workers’ party) – embodied by Black American organizations, Palestinians and various Islamic groups.
A human being, as a thinker who is responsible for his own destiny and the fate of others, has no place in this scheme. Instead, there are faceless groups of “beneficial insects” and “harmful insects” (a precise copy of Marxist theory). The former deserve all the support; the latter should be expelled and persecuted in every possible way. Like sheep, a man is born with a stigma which determines his fate. A Black transgender Muslim will a priori have a more privileged position than a white man, regardless of intelligence and moral qualities. As in Bolshevik Russia, the weaver was a priori better than a former nobleman, and in Nazi Germany, the Aryan criminal was above the “subhuman” — a Jew or Slav.
It is assumed that each group of “insects” must sacrifice itself in the name of universal progress. White heterosexual men should make space for socially oppressed groups: women and the LGBT community, who, in turn, ought to sacrifice themselves in the name of the “World Proletariat,” whereas the “Proletarian Masses” must put themselves on the altar for the benefit of the Labor aristocracy and “Progressive Vanguard.”
Linda Sarsour’s message about the “brave Black Muslim American woman” (Ilhan Omar) – a victim of “people with “dual loyalty” — has a hypnotic effect on the progressive public, and she is well aware of it. In the reflection of Houston Chamberlain’s racial theory, “people with dual loyalty” (“termites” in Farrakhan’s definition) don’t stand a chance…
The following examples will demonstrate how this ideology elucidates modern countless paradoxes of “liberal democracy”:
– The Dead White European Males (DWEM) term in American campuses;
– PinkNews’ headline that “US Muslims are more accepting of homosexuality than White evangelicals”;
– Bullying all who disagree with the superiority of marginal groups over heterosexuals (after he dared to support heterosexual families, a cofounder of Mozilla, Brendan Eich, had to step down);
– The physical destruction of “politically incorrect” books, including children’s literature. In 2007, for instance, the municipal library of Botkyrka (a suburb of Stockholm) burned the entire edition of “Pippi in the South Seas,” written by Astrid Lindgren in 1948, because of “racist” expressions;
– The total onslaught against the origins of Western civilization and its history. For instance: a publication such as “Mummies, Cannibals and Vampires” by Richard Sugg claims that 18th century British nobility practiced cannibalism; Ralph Ellis’ research tries to prove that King Solomon was an Egyptian Pharaoh (“Solomon, Pharaoh of Egypt”); and Jesus was the fourth king of Manu, ruler of Edessa in Mesopotamia (“Jesus, King of Edessa”). Or a “discovery” by Annika Larsson from Uppsala University that the word “Allah” was embroidered on Vikings’ funeral clothes (compared to all this the Soviet agitprop is a kids’ game). Alan Ereira and Terry Jones (in “Barbarians against Rome”) claim that the Romans were bloodthirsty and evil savages, whereas the ancient Germans and Celts were peaceful, highly civilized communities. In “Battlefield-1” — a Swedish computer game based on World War I motifs — British, American and even German soldiers appear as black. USA Today columnist Brian Truitt criticized a lack of diversity in “Dunkirk” — a movie about the British Expeditionary Force in World War II. Could it be that Bernard Montgomery, Dwight D. Eisenhower and George S. Patton were black transgender lesbians? Why not?
– The statement of Prince Charles that gangs of pirates were “fantastic” for aquatic life because the fishermen were too scared to fish in coastal Somalia waters.
Only by understanding the nature of modern synthesis of Marxist and racial ideologies one can explain the inexplicable. The self-forgetful vilification of Israel and complete disregard of the scourge of the Palestinians in the refugee camps in Syria and Lebanon. Total indifference to the fate of Ukrainians in war zones and moving concern for migrants from peaceful areas of Africa and Asia. The willingness to accept ISIS militants and the apathy to the fate of their victims: Christians and Yezidis. Compassion for jihadists in Guantanamo and mobsters from “Black Life Matters,” while cynically ignoring the genocides in Sudan and Rwanda. The accusation of the “white man” for all mortal sins and the refusal to recognize poorly disguised slavery in the Muslim world. The denial of Islamic terror side by side the hysterics about marginal “White Terror.” Feminists’ violent attacks on Sir Tim Hunt, the Nobel prizewinner, because of his joke about girls in science labs, while the same feminists defended rapists from Afghanistan, Somalia and Morocco. Drexel University (Philadelphia) associate professor of politics and global studies George Ciccariello-Maher’s wishes of “White Genocide for Christmas” and expressions of delight for the 9/11 terror attacks from famous intellectuals. Adoration for all kinds of dictators of the Third World on the one hand, and contempt for the white descendants of the Boers, hunted by the South Africa’s regime on the other. The adamant reluctance to release the names of Muslim gang rapists and a comparison of Viktor Orban to Hitler.
Claims on CNN that “Islam has always been a part of the American fabric” and “America has always had heroes who were Muslims.” The new heroes are Muhammad Ali, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (professional basketball player), left activist Malcolm X and the leader of notorious Nation of Islam, Louis Farrakhan. Surprised? Not at all. Farrakhan is the personification of a “progressive man of a new type”: he is a Black Islamist, a personal enemy of Jews and whites. If you disagree, than you don’t fully understand theories of race and class.
Only by understanding the pyramid’s structure of the modern totalitarian ideology, the game of leapfrog of absurd facts acquires its own clear logic.
– Hounding Marine Le Pen for Twitter photos of ISIS’ atrocities and pogroms at the University of Berkeley in “Stormtroopers” style following Trump’s victory.
– An assignment from a University of Iowa professor to describe the 9/11 terrorist attacks from the perspective of Al-Qaeda, and a UK textbook asking children to ask questions of terrorists.
– A demand by students from a prestigious London University to eradicate Plato, Descartes and Immanuel Kant from the curriculum because they are white, and the replacing of Shakespeare’s portrait with the portrait of Audre Lorde, “black, lesbian, mother, warrior, poet,” at the University of Pennsylvania.
– Havens for all but “Straight white students” on campuses and allegations (by FBI leaders as well) that “white nationalism” is a greater threat to the US than ISIS.
– A letter from the French Professor Christian de Moliner in November 2017 asking Macron to create a Muslim state within France, Ken Livingstone’s sympathy for Yusuf al-Qaradawi, and Jeremy Corbyn’s empathy for the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas and Hizballah.
One will understand the Swedish feminists who wear burkas in Iran and the French court decision to remove the cross from the monument of Pope John Paul II, as well as the training of new migrants to be snipers in Sweden, and the efforts of British leftist groups to disrupt a demonstration against Muslim gangs of rapists. The deportation from Sweden of Iranian actress and ex-Muslim Aideen Strandsson, who converted to Christianity (the explanation was “It’s not our problem if you decided to become a Christian”; she got asylum in Hungary, thanks to Orban) and the refusal of the British Home Office to give asylum to a 34-year-old Nigerian, Nneka Obazee, a lesbian, and her stepson. Social benefits to ISIS militants by Great Britain, Sweden and France, and the allowing of Pakistani homophobic preacher Hamza Sodagar to enter Britain. He infamously claimed the following: “There are five punishments for homosexual men. First, probably the easiest one, is to behead them. The second, is to burn them to death. Third, to throw them off a cliff. Fourth, crash them to death with bricks. And finally, a combination of all of the above, is the fifth.” (Muslims are more accepting of homosexuality than White evangelicals, isn’t it? But let’s remember: each class must consciously sacrifice itself for the sake of the more progressive ones).
The comparing of Trump with ISIS (obviously not in Trump’s favor) by GQ columnist Julia Ioffe on CNN, and the words of Arizona Democrat Senate candidate Kyrsten Sinema, that she doesn’t care if Americans enlist the Taliban and fight for it in Afghanistan. A German police commissioner blaming girls who are victims for being raped by migrants, and the refusal of a left-wing German activist, 24-year-old Selin Gören, to reveal the names of rapists, out of a fear of fueling racism against refugees. The hosting and rewarding of a young Palestinian terrorist by Real Madrid, and the blocking of Facebook posts about retaliation for homosexuals by Muslims.
Mohamed Atta and Paris’ Bataclan jihad killer Ishmael Omar Mostfai as part of the exhibition in the “Martyr Museum” (along with Socrates and Martin Luther King) in Germany, and the celebration of the Ottoman conquest of the Hagia Sophia by the Florida Museum. The assertion of the University of California that “only whites can be racist” and the Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams’ and Lord Chief Justice Phillips’ support of Sharia law in England. A call by Georgetown Professor Jonathan Brown — an advocate of slavery in the Muslim world — that “Muslims in America should stand with Black Lives Matter” and the dropping of rape charges for migrant rapists and pedophiles. “Muslim Brothers” such as Obama’s and Macron’s entourage and a campaign of state-owned company Lernia to replace the “standard Swedish language” with a migrant-inclusive accent.
All of this can only be understandable if one knows the concepts of class struggle and scientific racism theory.
Nazism and Marxism of the 20th century cast mankind into hell. In the 21st century, their offspring welcomed a new Golem: Islam. In my opinion, the followers of this new ideology are yearning for the triumph of a global caliphate, consciously and subconsciously. Subconsciously, because they need a doctrine robust enough to keep their superficial and feeble souls from self-destruction in a complex and incomprehensible world. Consciously, because due to public relations and apologetic abilities, only Islam, as a universal world system, will ensure their existence — albeit the miserable existence of the “capo,” but still an existence. Nobody needs them anymore.
A Red-Brown mutant inevitably becomes green in our eyes.

Alexander Maistrovoy has made an important observation here:
“A new ideology – a successor of the failed totalitarian ideologies of the past century — governs the soul of the West, and it’s called Identity Politics.”
The previous models were:
1) Marxism = a combination of socialism and internationalism
2) Fascism = a combination of socialism and nationalism
Now we have …
3) Globalism = a combination of kleptocracy, socialism, fascism and internationalism.
GLOBALISM HAS NOT YET BEEN CORRECTLY IDENTIFIED AND POPULARIZED BY THE INTELLENTSIA OF THE POLITICAL SCIENCE COMMUNITY!!!
WHY NOT? POLYSCI GRADUATES … GET CRACKING … WRITE BOOKS ABOUT THE GLOBALISM PHENOMENOM.
Ferd III says
Good observation. Fascism always has been, and always will be a left-wing communal phenomenon. It may take different forms (Communism in Russia, Totalitarianism in Cuba or Romania, Pagan anti-religious statism in Germany etc).
Fascism is not a ‘right wing’ issue, whatever right wing might mean.
mortimer says
Ferd, this is a NEW PHENOMENON … Fascism plus Globalism … no one can recognize this new ideology because political scientists have not researched it and written books on it.
Indiana Tom says
Right, Left, it is all government and it just all sucks.
Ferd III says
Good points made by the author about the general insanity, absurdity, and hyprocrisy of the Fake News Media, the lower Education system, the imbeclic elite and other low IQ self proclaimed really-clever-people. Orwell’s world indeed. The end of civilisation unless it is reversed.
Islam is itself quite fascistic and primitive. In studying Muhammadanism since before 9-11 I can list no redeeming features, nor do I see a golden age, unless you want to believe the child-like propaganda of its supporters.. All the tenets of Roger Scruton’s definition of Fascism are fulfilled. It is entirely communal (umma), oppressive (against non Moslems, women, Blacks), intolerant (same), Jihadic, violent, inbred and dedicated not to civilisaton but to recital (Mein Koran), and memorised rituals (throwing stones at devil’s, kissing rocks, prayer oblations etc).
Muhammadanism is the real name of Fascist Islam. It is bronze-age, pagan and worships the Al Lah of Mecca, namely Baal, whose caretaker was of course the family of Mad Moh. Everyone on Barbaria knew this, which is why Al Lah is never explained in Mein Koran.
I compared side by side, Mein Koran and Mein Kampf. The latter is less violence, less racist and better written. Those are the only real differences.
Carol the 1st says
Ferd lll…Your very straightforward comments are reminiscent of a “keeper” of a speech recently given by Geert Wilders. It was sponsored by the David Horowitz Freedom Centre and has thus likely been featured on this site but greatly deserves ongoing public attention
In this unique speech Wilders surprises by having absolutely NO hesitation in pointing the finger at Islam. He also describes some firm self-defense plans and measures he will work to initiate. Like Viktor Orban he raises the bar on straight talk but his speech is even more of a direct CHALLENGE and RALLYING CRY FOR WESTERN NATIONS:

Re: “All of this can only be understandable if one knows the concepts of class struggle and scientific racism theory.”
OK, so you listed a lot of symptoms, and finished with some blathering metaphors about golem colors.
But you didn’t address the real reason criminals are idolatrous gang-worshipers: COWARDICE.
Some people are so scared of losing that they don’t even try to win any more: “If I don’t try to win, then I can’t lose!”
So they pretend that compromising their own integrity isn’t mere cowardly Submission to their own fears, but a virtue!
They pretend they meant to do that – that compromising, negotiating away their own and others’ rights to extortionists, to giving in and going along with criminal lies to get along with the other lying criminals, to settling in stead of winning, and to the pretense that there are no real criminal aggressors, but only equally helpless fellow victims, is only being reasonable, shrewd, canny, wise and realistic – and further, that those people who dare to resist extortionists are really only being mean to those same criminally aggressive predatory equally helpless fellow victims who always deserve support.
If and when one is paranoid and believes everyone else is a gang out to get them, then opposing the gang is insanity and virtue-signalling a literally slavish worship of the gang’s holy might-made-right is the most moral of rational choices.
And once their cowardly treason to rationality and civilization is embedded in their self-image as morality, it’s over.
There will be no reasoning with such hypocrites – the only thing which can change them is them selves, given lots of time.
Their real victims won’t have the time to spare, so if they haven’t committed physical damage, they may be jailed, but if they have committed physical damage against other people – well, you all know my preferred punitive and deterrent methods.

”Democratic ideals, social justice and tolerance don’t rule the world anymore. A new ideology – a successor of the failed totalitarian ideologies of the past century — governs the soul of the West, and it’s called Identity Politics.” Yep.
Excellent and thought provoking article from Alexander Maistrovoy. Thank you.
infidel says
Another Islamic TRUISM from the annals of the infidel:
The LEFT LIB – ISLAMIC ALLIANCE has crossed all levels of logic, decency, morality, and ridiculousness… and this Islam milks to the max even more than the LEFT.. Islam is the dominant partner in this illogical alliance.
mummymovie says
The dominant partner because it is positions itself as the primary end-beneficiary in its selective (though paradoxical) co-opting of causes and social “movements” like Black Lives Matter, the Women’s March and now, even Christmas and Jesus.
Moslems and islamic sociopolitical groups are entirely shameless in doing so, no matter how far a stretch required if the imagination required to allow for their activist inclusion, but do so masterfully in their selection of these causes.
Alex is one of the best writers out there (see more of his work at Gatestone Institute) , and not without reason, as evidenced here by his having pointed out, identified, and given us examples of this outrageous phenomenon of institutionalized identity politics which has now extended into multitudes of tentacles of indoctrination, not only in college campuses, but into primary education as (here, in the U.S.) muslim students (offspring of third-world “refugees”, “asylees” and chain migrants) flood into grade schools in the U.S., along with the children of Latino migrants, and their parents -paying particular attention-to the curriculum, while consulting online resources, legal, and support groups to help maximize their milking ability- make demands to change the curticulum to their advantage, while maxing-out the school systems, and potentially overwhelming and/or up-ending the entire system.
They do not care, regardless of their impact on previously smoothly functioning institutions: They are here, and they are not going away. This is all part of their objective of social upheaval.
The Cultural Marxists have been hard at work, and very busy. I’m afraid we will be seeing much more of this stuff.
Alarmed Pig Farmer says
This essay’s thesis is very good. I hadn’t thought about that before, but the unsatisfactorily named Political Correctness feeds right into the hands of political Jihad. PC operates in large part on sanctimony and silencing of opponents by controlling what can be said. And, after all, who has more to *not* talk about than Moslems.
Indiana Tom says
This Identity Politics crap has probably been going on since the early 1970s, if not sooner. LBJ and the Great Society maybe? FDR?

Talking things over with a few others in the past month, it is noting that there is a different philosophy of thinking, that is looking to rule us.
Very good essay in articulating and drawing out the commonality and connections of this change.
I have copy pasted to this a draft to save,. so that I can refer to it, and to be able to send copies to other interested people.
Thank you Alexander Maistrovoy and will look at your books.
Thank you Robert Spencer for all the work, research and your dedication, to bring forth this important information.

Hey, Jews now get roped in with the White Nationalists. Shalom!

I know, right!?!
Outrageous!
Hezbollah gets the Christmas spirit, and Buddhists are now evil, genocidal villains! (i.e. the Rohingya muslim situation in Myanmar)
What will the cultural Marxists bring us next?
Stay tuned, and consult the WaPo or NYT. I’m sure the next one is in the hopper.
Indiana Tom says
Alexander Maistrovoy is the author of “Agony of Hercules or a Farewell to Democracy (Notes of a Stranger),”
Thank God someone sees things the way I do.
It was getting lonely out here.
Indiana Tom says
I started coming across this PC Identity Politics. in 1975 and 1976 at college and while working with some liberals in a summer job. Instead of Americans, we now had hyphenated Americans and they were all put in their little groups with their own little customs. These groups had certains rights and some groups were more equal than others by government decree.Some of the groups had special domains and privileges maintained by the government. Government was to discriminate against the more successful groups as they oppressed the unsuccessful groups.More opportunities would be presented by government force to equalize the inherent dysfunction of the less successful groups.
From each according to his meager ability, each according to his vast needs
This was to be accomplished by the dictatorship of the proletariat.
This would be temporary as the “Withering away of the state” would occur.
I also believe the earth is flat.

AryaDharmic Dunya presents objectively better if not Superior View of Mankind&World. (backed by Science & Logic)
The Dharma Manifesto penned by Acharya Morales is a beginners guide to AryaDharmic Ideals.
(Dunya is word for world.) The inchoate yet nascent Aryavarthasthan (Akhand Bharat) will solve topics in a genuinely Just (righteous-humane) Manner.
Nothing is sweeter than Mother, Motherland and MotherTongue. Only Dharmic Ethnostates within Empires of Divine Light (porous border please) will ensure continuity of all peoples from all creeds.
Newsflash for Moslems:
1.Men and women are equal though different roles have been assigned to Men and Women by Nature.
2.Girl abduction is intolerable moslemMlecch miscreants – stop mistreating the womenfolk and animals belonging to nonMoslem communities.
3. Stop Abusing welfare systems of advanced nations -the leading cause of poverty is Islam itself. (jizya economics is absolutely repulsive) If you wish justice to prevail over colonial atrocities do so in an honest and truthful manner – impossible since you moslems have established dishonesty as foundation for your criminal creed known the world over as Pisslam – religion of Pieces.
4. Since you moslems don’t recognize any borders and you islamojihadists have divided the world into House of War and House of Peace and House of Dhimmitude it is now time for the AryaDharmic Dunya (Bharat di Janata and our friends) to not recognize any Land as being Moslem – time to dismantle the Umma for the sake of genocide prevention.
