The Rage Orchestrating the Transformation of America

One of the many traps into which conservatives routinely fall is thinking that their ideological opponents donโ€™t fully understand the nature and the consequences of the ruinous policies they advocate. Cries of, โ€œdonโ€™t they realize thatโ€ฆโ€ and โ€œsurely they can see the hypocrisyโ€ fill the air as the well-meaning but utterly naรฏve Right tries to make sense of the rabid, foaming Left and its dynamic plan for โ€œdirect action,โ€ that is, force and violence.

How else to explain the events of the past nine months, the astonishingly fast descent of the United States of America from a muscular Republic confident of its history, purpose, and mission, into a mewling metrosexual stew of intersectional genders, military pusillanimity, overt contempt for the nation by its elected leaders, and a near-total loss of faith in its institutions?

Our present, parlous state has not happened by accident or inanition. Rather, it has been meticulously planned, step by step, for the better part of a century. One by one the bricks in the wall, laid by our Founders and pointed up ever since by patriots of both parties who took their responsibilities as custodians of their birthright solemnly and seriously, have been removed: faith, tradition, and the Constitution itself.

We can date the proximate cause of our cultural discontentโ€”for, at root, our problems are cultural, and only secondarily politicalโ€”to the arrival of the Frankfurt School, Marxist refugees from Hitler who roosted in some of the countryโ€™s top Ivy League schools, bringing with them their malcontent notion of Critical Theory, the Pandoraโ€™s Box of misery from which all evils have flown, including the now-notorious โ€œcritical race theory.โ€

In my 2015 best-selling book on the subject, โ€œThe Devilโ€™s Pleasure Palace,โ€ I wrote this: โ€œRage is the salient characteristic of Satan, and of the satanic in men.โ€

And what do we see all around us today? Rage against the Man, against the System, against Whiteness, against newly defined โ€œbigotry,โ€ against the existing order, against religion, against Western civilization, against history itself. Rage is curdling the blood of half our citizens, driving them mad with ersatz resentment, misplaced empathy, and frustration that their views of what ought to be and reality are irreconcilable.

Sequence of Events

All this rageโ€”the cornerstone of Critical Theory, but masquerading as an academic disciplineโ€”has unchained a sequence of events, brilliantly executed by the Left since the election of Donald Trump interrupted the Democratsโ€™ Obama-era promise of โ€œfundamental transforming the United States of America.โ€
