And that makes him an expert in American and Western culture?

Seems like a bozo who is failing to keep step with cultural evolution, including Supreme Court rulings and evolution of rights.  He's not getting his way, so he's explaining why the system is wrong.  Things are not turning out the way they want, so there must be chaos, by definition.  Wrong and wrong.

I can understand why people would get the wrong idea from watching the news, various fights, and vitriol.  But, in most places in the US most of the time, the number of people in gangs committing crimes or otherwise acting out is minuscule.  A few people scream and shout when something is up for discussion, then, for the most part, it's all over once a final decision has been made.  Varies a little by area, but for something like 90% of the population, there is little conflict nearby.


I will have to read that article again and see if it makes more or
different sense with repetition.

On the first pass I saw a dreary, oft-repeated propaganda screed
composed of buzzwords about buzzwords, apparently aimed at an audience
who need a constant supply of circular arguments to define and condemn
their most hated enemies:  People who may happen to look like "one of
them" but fail to hate, fear and endorse the murder of people who
don't happen to look like them.  In their lexicon Marxist simply means
"people we hate who must be killed."

In my lexicon, Marxism denotes a failed 20th century political model
based on 19th century industrial economics, surviving into the 21st
century as a sterile debating society for pseudo-intellectuals.  But
then I'm an anarchist:  I like general models applicable to a wide
range of dynamic systems; don't like rigid, dogmatic, prescriptive
models.

I interpret "social chaos in Western society" as a result of several
driving factors:  Commercial marketing strategies creating
pseudo-tribal identities for consumers, to sell them must-have and
constantly changing gang identity and specialized status symbol
products; political propaganda in a "divide the conquered" strategy
that incites conflicts between these pseudo-tribes to keep them busy
fighting among themselves; and cut-throat competition within and
between these pseudo-tribes, as systematic looting by the very rich
gradually reduces all of them to poverty.  Add constant, pervasive
propaganda proving that things only money can buy define the worth of
a human being, that nonconformity is a disease, and that violence
solves problems (turn on a TV and stand back).  Viola:  Social chaos,
made to order.

Outside of gangs in Chicago, Oakland, etc., and some deep South areas that want to hang on to discrimination no matter what, it is hard to argue that there is any kind of "chaos".  Things evolve, as they have been, and some people are on the wrong side of history.  Commercialism, political tactics, and other manipulations, including religious, have to continually evolve and work to stay relevant.  Although sometimes it takes far too long, eventually most people see through the tactics and become resistant.  A lot of overhead has been squeezed out of the system, benefiting consumers in most cases.  More evolution will help more than it hurts.


Ask a True Believer and they will tell you that this post is a
passionate defense of Marxism, and that I am a Race Traitor who
deserves to be tortured and killed as a lesson and warning to others.
 That's not my hyperbole; it's a nearly direct quote from one of them.
There's a reason that nobody listens to those people.
