It may seem obvious, but Brandon Smith has done a great job explaining again why Leftism is incompatible with freedom. He details with telling metaphors, “the vicious devouring of the very sinews that hold our civilization together.” The argument is clear, that the Left is no longer merely geared to totalitarianism and social control, but have moved into full-on nihilism, the desire to simply destroy Western civilisation. The key here is that the Left see all of the institutions, such as the family, and traditional masculinity, as irreparably flawed, and in need of deconstruction, and replacement. This is expressed in the academic literature, seen in Critical Race Theory, and radical sexuality, but in concrete forms, in the antifa, who are the shock troops of the Left’s deconstruction, and who are quite prepared to burn and murder if necessary.
This is grim, but we need to be realists and understand what threats we face, not things that are mild and comforting. It means that there is no compromise with the Left, and that separation is the only way forward as Brandon Smith and others tell us.
