James writes: "Thus, it might be said that many Canadian conservatives have reached a sad state of befuddlement, duped and blithely dancing along to the siren song of Marxian intellectual warfare, wondering if they are really socialists after all. What is conservative, what is liberal, what is socialist, will Canada forever demur on the most basic problems of modern politics? How many Canadian conservatives have gamely assumed the self-descriptor “Red Tory,” naively supposing the political and philosophical integrity of such nonsense wizardry? Will the shock of emerging woke culture dominance be enough to shake Canadians from this confused state, that they might rediscover their own principles?" This is pithy. I'm not sure all Conservatives will ever be the same, but wokeism is moving us in that direction.
Jim: If I could do better than to be pithy than I would, if I could reach out and slap each Canadian conservative upside the face, I'd do that instead and that's because I love conservativism. We are obviously losing the culture war in the most pathetic and abysmal fashion, a slap ought to be the least of our worries.
Hegel held that “the state was the possessor of infallible knowledge, tolerance thus became a "criminal weakness", and the individual achieved his freedom in subordinating himself to the state…” Hegel inspired Lenin and Marx and someone else; “For Hitler, not only did Hegel give him the moral authority to place the State above individual freedoms, but supported Hitler's ideas about the "goodness" of war.” In Canada when those protesting for freedom and individual rights are called nazis it is often by people who believe and support erasing divisions between the state and corporations, in collective good at the expense of individual freedom, the destruction of conscientious objection, good and evil races, collective guilt, and euthanasia-all of which are markers of fascists belief.
Excellent Ben - I recommend Stephen Hicks book "Explaining Postmodernism..." as a place to develop additional perspective on how the German idealist philosophers have been driving irrationalism anti-liberalism and how irrationalist anti-liberalism has been driving radical academic activism in the West. As for Hitler, Hegel's anti-liberal royal absolutism could easily be co-opted by an authoritarian. Hicks implicates Nietzsche as the number one ideological influence here: https://www.stephenhicks.org/nietzsche-and-the-nazis/
One small point to note that Charles II was not a Catholic king. He was allegedly converted on his death bed, but there is some doubt about how compos mentis he really was, and whether this was some contrivance by his son, who most definitely was Catholic, which very materially contributed to his later downfall during the glorious (Protestant) revolution of 1688.
Thank you so much, for a fantastic analysis. I learnt so much from reading this and will share with others. It is so important to get clear of the ideologies that are used as markers of conservatism. Im a late 'bloomer' to conservative thinking, as the 'liberals' have become so rigid and conformist. They hate free speech and rule of law.
Hello SN - we are very pleased to see that someone just gets this piece for what it is. We are all learners, those who wrote the piece, and those very few who read it and appreciated it, and that learning is the resistance.
Well argued, but misses the point. You should re-analyze history not by radical-conservative antagonism but by freemasons playing both sides for their own agenda:
Their dream, our nightmare. Yet, we can stop this with more prayer and political action:
The 2023 digital dollar (Federal Reserve is testing it): they plan to ban cash. We need a law forbidding banning cash. Also, a zero inflation new coin backed by real assets (gold, silver, copper, lithium, oil, soya warrants, whatever but real, since freemasons counterfeit dollars and Euros as explained by Ronald Bernard).
The 2024 WHO International Pandemic Treaty: they plan nations to give up their sovereignty to the WHO
A law stating under severe penalty for non-compliance (even to their heirs if that is known after they died), that anyone should disclose if they belong to a secret society, especially those with the requirement to obey secret orders, such as all lodges and freemasonic and luciferian/satanic type of societies.
Penalties should be even more severe with all stake holders involved in or with all the 3 branches of government (even suppliers and candidates), finance (especially, banks, funds, listed corporations) and especially, the armed forces, even the police (that's the reason they' didn't protect the country against blatant constitutional violations).
If this law passes, you'd learn that all listed financial and corporate boards are controlled by freemasons, all the Democrats and especially all the Republicans voting for gender ideology were freemasons, all politicians members of the CFR or attending Sun Valley are freemasons, most of the Supreme Court and lesser courts, all dominant media CEOs are freemasons.
Only then people will ask for change, for example, a law barring them from all such positions. There's no deep state just freemasonry. There are no conspiracies, just freemason plots. There's no democracy with freemasonry, only conspiracy. There’s no 2030 globalism without freemasonry. Freemasonry is the enemy of the people.
Don’t get sad, move your ass! Get into politics! There’s no other way to survive the future.
Alexander: ideologies such as woke and subversive falsifications such as "Red Tory" are the products of academic radicals, and if academic-striving was so impotent a force than we really wouldn't be here on woke watch, I'm sure. My suggestion to you is: learn to swim.

Yes i have read that but much of the detail i don’t retain as it is so depressing.
One small point to note that Charles II was not a Catholic king.

Thanks for catching that Christopher. We fixed it.

The 2025 new plandemic: 67 P4 labs like Wuhan are working in new Frankensteins, we need a REAL non-proliferation Bioweapons Convention.

The 2026 global drought through cloud dissolving tech: we need an international anti-geoengineering Convention.
Finally, the Transparency (out-of-closet) law could be the key to unleash the movement towards direct democracy:

Good themes, especially re cultural marxism and Canada.
But too long and somewhat obscure.
Academic-striving papers don't win politics.
Alexander: ideologies such as woke and subversive falsifications such as "Red Tory" are the products of academic radicals, and if academic-striving was so impotent a force than we really wouldn't be here on woke watch, I'm sure. My suggestion to you is: learn to swim.
My suggestion to you is: make up your mind whether you're competing in water polo or swimming.
Water polo is for Red Tories.
Keep fighting! We're on the same side.
