Yuri Bezmenov very well explains the subversion and indoctrination we are able to observe.

How did it happen that institutes of higher education abandoned one of their core principles, free thought and open debate of ideas, and turned into institutes of radical leftist indoctrination?

If you walk back in time connections, take us back to the 1930s and Cultural Marxism of which Political Correctness is just one facet.

Stalin established Political Correctness with public shaming and witch hunts, putting people on political trials. It's baffling the same horror, the imprisonment of free thought and speech has become mainstream in America and parts of the west.

And cultural Marxism is one reason why common core is such a bad idea: it draws young talented people down and has made them subject to cultural Marxist indoctrination with the PC and all.

It's apparent, what they brainwash young people with, is not called Marxism. Yet the underlying ideology is. That's called cultural Marxism. The doctrine tries to hide its origins and go by other names, and people promoting those claim cultural Marxism is just a right-wing conspiracy theory.

Cultural Marxism is Not an Invention of Right Wing Paranoids.

Cultural Marxism is not an invention of the paranoid right. It's a school of thought developed by left-wing Marxists and named by them as such because it describes the application of their own theory to culture rather than economics. Whether you agree with the movement or disagree with the movement, saying that it's not a movement, or that William Lind created a fictitious movement in 1998, is absurd. You are either misinformed or lying.

Below is a list of sources drawn exclusively from professors and scholars practicing cultural Marxism in which they use the term to describe the Frankfurt- and Birmingham-descended schools of thought.

For those who don't know, a brief introduction to the history of cultural Marxism.

Like any shady character, it changes its name to hide its true origins by using aliases such as critical theory, intersectional feminism, social reconstructionism, postmodernism, cultural relativism, etc

The neo-Marxist 'critical theory' originates from the Frankfurt School, and is cancer at the center of a lot of leftist bullshit. 'Critical theory' is a neo-Marxist activist ideology masked as academic scholarly pursue with the purpose of changing the society instead of objectively studying it. 'Critical theory' is fundamentally unscientific: it does not seek understanding of society but to change the culture itself - the very subject it pretends to study - to its Marxist likings.

The ideology came to America already in the 1930s and started to infest American academia right away. Marxists had established a Marxist research center in the Frankfurt Institute for Social Research in Germany (the Frankfurt School). When anti-communist Nazis came to power, they fled as refugees, and in 1934 Max Horkheimer went to the US and established his institute as part of Columbia University Department of Sociology.

That's the ground zero where cancer started spreading:
"The Revolution won't happen with guns, rather it will happen incrementally, year by year, generation by generation. We will gradually infiltrate their educational institutions and their political offices, transforming them slowly into Marxist entities as we move towards universal egalitarianism."
-Max Horkheimer

One of the most notable spreaders of this neo-Marxist cancer was Herbert Marcuse teaching 1951-1976 at Columbia University, Brandeis University, and the University of California. Since then the disease has been spreading, infests academia and education all over the place: sociology, journalism, law, political science, economics, arts, gender studies, etc. etc. And thanks to the common core it now even infests children's education all over the USA.

Often if you scratch the surface of fishy liberal/progressive/leftist bullshit, you'll find 'critical theory' hiding beneath it. It's the primary building block of everything else tends to connect to (e.g., intersectional feminism = critical theory + feminism).

Here's an illustrative flow graph connecting some of the relevant phenomenon: https://i.sli.mg/A7k2Rq.jpg

While not 100% accurate it captures the connections pretty well from the Frankfurt School to the modern media propaganda for example.

That does not mean journalists have all willfully subscribed to the Frankfurt School, they probably don't even know about it but were just fed that bullshit in their education.

As the 'critical theory' first started corrupting social sciences, by corrupting objective research and by turning teaching into form of political activism, the next obvious target was journalism: "to hell with striving for objectivity in reporting, the purpose of journalism is to pursue an agenda - not reporting of facts but changing the society." As their crutch they use 'postmodernism' which is an ideology, faking as philosophy, again connected back to the 'critical theory' and Frankfurt School.

It has been much more difficult for the neo-marxists to infest engineering and natural sciences because those deal with facts. So they have invented a back door: mandatory 'diversity training' and 'sensitivity training' courses where even the students of natural sciences are force fed the cultural Marxist indoctrination.

So, how does that all connect to the common core and education of children?

Cultural Marxism got into children's education by actual Marxist terrorists, thanks to the cuck president and administration of the time. Yeah, outrageous thing to hear but it's true.

The Weather Underground was an American militant Marxist terrorist group notorious for their bombings. Their agenda was to overthrow democracy and the US government by a violent socialist revolution. They failed. Many ended up in prison while others were fucking pardoned by President Carter.

So the actual masterminds and founders of that terrorist group "re-integrated" into society to continue their work to undermine it. And they actually became professors/teachers in high education, and not only that but also designers and planners for children's education (NO RLY, go and see Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn). I don't know how the fuck that is possible but you actually have Marxist terrorists in positions of authority designing education programs for children in the US.

And they and their ilk just love the idea of common core as it gives them the opportunity to indoctrinate people already from young age all over America.

Missing pieces: how exactly did cultural marxism become a tool of globalism?

That is an important question. Cultural Marxism and globalism are in the same bed, but I have to say I do not know how or when exactly it happened. Needs more research.

What I can say, however, is that cultural Marxism and globalism have quite a lot in common. In many ways they are similar ideologies with similar aims including common enemies. I mean, just look at the reactions from both radical left and globalists to Brexit and Trump.

The big difference between marxism and globalism is obviously the underlaying economic ideology. But surprise surprise there is no such difference between cultural Marxism and globalism - because there is no economy part at all in cultural Marxism! Cultural Marxism is not about the economy, from the very beginning its sole purpose has been the social and cultural dismantling of nations. Which happens to align with the aims of globalism.

The ultimate end game of both cultural Marxism and globalism is to get rid of nations, dismantle nationhood, suppress sovereignty, and to demote countries to mere regions.

In Marxism, it is the necessary step before establishing the world government and true global communism (just keep in mind that cultural Marxism does not concern economy). And in globalism it is a step of making countries ripe for economic abuse to strip them from their wealth - to line the pockets of very select few, and to gain nondemocratic power structures behind the scenes.

That is why they both have the same mortal enemies: sovereignty, nation, and the social and cultural structures of a society and nationhood. They both aim to suppress and destroy those structures, and to eradicate those very ideas. That is why both the radical leftists and the globalists scream bloody murder in the chorus when confronted with entirely rational opinions supporting those. And that is also why they both hate the freedom of speech.

Book on how radical leftist SJWs and 'liberals' poison scientific study: Galileo’s Middle Finger: Heretics, Activists, and the Search for Justice in Science by Alice Dreger

Relevant article: Why Some of the Worst Attacks on Social Science Have Come From Liberals

Many liberals, after all, have convinced themselves that it’s conservatives who attack science in the name of politics, while they would never do such a thing. Galileo’s Middle Finger corrects this misperception in a rather jarring fashion, and that’s why it’s one of the most important social-science books of 2015.

At its core, Galileo’s Middle Finger is about what happens when science and dogma collide — specifically, what happens when science makes a claim that doesn’t fit into an activist community’s accepted worldview. And many of Dreger’s most interesting, explosive examples of this phenomenon involve liberals, not conservatives, fighting tooth and nail against open scientific inquiry.

A choice quote from the book:

"The problem here is an old one: People don’t really get that good intentions can’t save you from hell. So long as we believe that bad acts are committed only by evil people and that good people do only good, we will fail to see, believe, or prevent these kinds of travesties … most people I meet seem convinced that the goodness of their souls will keep them from committing bad acts. When they look back at history, they don’t see what we historians see: dumb tragedies. They see simple moral dramas, with predictable characters enacting easy stories of good and evil."

A random example of cultural marxism in action by the NYT:

http://archive.is/WylOo

With the They Live glasses on that page would probably read: EMASCULATE YOUR SONS.

The idea behind imaginary concepts such as "toxic masculinity", invented to promote sexism against boys and men and to emasculate them, has been part of the cultural marxist agenda since the 1930s: in order to subvert a nation, first subvert men. Emasculate them. Paint masculinity itself as horrible, even fucking toxic.

Basically: critical theory + feminism = intersectional feminism -> "toxic masculinity" (which isn't a scientific concept at all, it's imaginary, doesn't even make scientific sense)

And that's one of the reasons to call SJWs cucks. The word cuck has a deeper context with sinister connections. Which takes us back to the term 'Political Correctness' originating from Stalinism.

Political correctness combined with MSM propaganda is the method of subjugating people to mere emasculated cucks:

“Political correctness is,” as Theodore Dalrymple said, “communist propaganda writ small.” Dalrymple concluded:

the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, nor to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is to co-operate with evil, and in some small way to become evil oneself. One’s standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to.

And that's essentially what SJWs are: emasculated liars, cucks.

The article is a good read: The Great Trump PC Jailbreak

The secret of Trump’s Republican presidential political success is that mainstream America is terminally sick and tired of a culturally-Marxist political correctness that has squelched it into “a society of emasculated liars.” If Trump’s anything, he’s the antithesis of political correctness. And mainstream America is turning to Trump not because he’s a lifelong principled conservative but because he’s the living and breathing negation of political correctness.Mainstream Americans who empirically sense cultural Marxism’s deconstruction of their traditional society, but can’t object without being condemned as racists, sexists, homophobes, or simply mean-spirited reactionary rednecks, are in full-blown revolt against their critical-theory jailors. And Trump -- political incorrectness incarnate -- is their natural leader.

Diversity is a Problem - Unity is the Answer

I don't see that diversity has brought anything to America except strife, anger,and division of the races. Destruction of the moral underpinnings and families of our society. I think it has been terrible and artificially introduced for the purpose of destroying the United States into disassociated, weak, divided states. People who believe in diversity have been conditioned, trained and schooled into this stupid philosophy. Because logically many banded together is stronger than many singles.

National Crime Victimization Survey: Estimate of Guns used for Defense(1992-1994)

This is the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS), conducted for the U.S. Department of Justice by the Census Bureau [U.S. Department of Justice, Bureau of Justice Statistics, 1996al. In this survey the false-positive problem is minimized by the design of the questionnaire. The only respondents who are asked whether they attempted to defend themselves in a crime are those who indicated that they had been the victim of a crime in which they had direct contact with the perpetrator. Limiting the DGU question to this small group changes the false-positive arithmetic dramatically. The resulting estimate for the annual number of DGUs (1992-1994) is about 108,000, a small fraction of the Kleck-Gertz estimate
*************************************************

This means that a gun is used to defend someone appx. 100,000 times a year. 295 times a day or 12 times an hour, once every5 minutes.

So how many lives are saved by defensive gun use? Possibly a great many more than are lost.
