It's very important to understand that above all else, Marxism is a scam. This includes Woke Marxism. A lot of Woke or Woke-sympathetic people today do not realize that Marxism is a deliberate scam that uses the apparent plight of the less fortunate to gain power for itself. 🧵

Marxism sells itself by being "for the oppressed," whether that's class oppression, racial oppression, sexual oppression, or any other kind of oppression, but that's just the sales pitch. Marxism is a scam. It champions those causes to position itself to steal power. Here's how.

The mechanism of Marxism is always the same, whether Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, or any others, including the Woke today. There's some "Enlightened" group of theorists who concentrate in a Party and in committees (Soviets) who will administer the redistribution system. Always.

The claim of Marxists of all kinds is that they're going to seize control of how things are made or done and redistribute both effort/work and rewards so that the oppressed get more, thus undoing oppression. What they fail to explain, intentionally, is that THEY'LL be doing it.

Marxist power brokers will position themselves as the only people who truly know how things work and thus the ones that have to control the distribution of work and reward, and they'll always do it in a way that deals mostly to themselves. Everyone else gets robbed.

If you support the Marxists but you're not a power broker (Marxist grifter), you'll get robbed. If you opposed the Marxists, you'll get robbed and probably destroyed. Most of the loot will go to the power brokers and will never make it to the "oppressed communities" they "serve."

Functionally, in Marxism formally, this graft is accomplished through something called the Dictatorship of the Proletariat, but in our modern Woke system its done through various bureaucratic, nonprofit, and institutional bodies that enforce Marxist belief and practice.

The Dictatorship of the Proletariat (compare: Ibram X. Kendi's "Department of Antiracism") is organized to run the entire scam and sold to the people it pretends to champion as their primary advocate. At the center of it are the Marxist power brokers who rob the whole system.

A true evil of Marxism (among many) is the lie that it serves oppressed groups in society. It doesn't. It uses them: by telling them that the Dictatorship of the Proletariat will champion their causes and setting themselves up to be the dictators of the Dictatorship.

In fact, Marxists aren't just inept because of their broken theory of the universe and general unwillingness to be productive except in theft and malice; they actually benefit from the increased suffering of the groups they claim to champion, which they blame on class enemies.

When you see "antiracists" or "pro-trans" people explaining why 2+2 doesn't have to, but can, equal 4, you're seeing this evil in action. There are very few better pathways to success than grasping mathematics and that which comes downstream from it.

The people most likely to listen to this Marxist manipulation, which is often tied to some kind of Marxist theory of "oppression," are poor, especially racial and sexual minorities, who are therefore hampered in their ability to understand math and thus climb out of poverty.

But their inability to climb out of poverty because they can't do math because of a Marxist manipulation of their education will be blamed on white supremacy, sexism, transphobia, and the lies, radicalizing them further and leading them to turn to the Marxists to get revenge.

The Marxists will then take the power of their support and use it to go run roughshod over society at large and, crucially, the groups they're pretending to champion because that suffering is the key to radicalization is the key to more of their own power.

You should think of Marxism as a giant scam designed to claim to be for oppressed groups while deliberately undercutting them and positioning the Marxist grifters at the center of the scam to enrich and empower themselves off the suffering they're creating. It's EVIL.

I was going to wrap it up there, but nowhere is this wheel of dependency and destruction more evil than in Queer Marxism, where people, mostly teenagers, are lead to destroying their bodies, minds, and futures while turning themselves into outsiders who need Queer Theory.

Other examples are similar but less grotesque: feminism teaching women to live lives that will make most of them extremely unhappy and that the problem is society and men. "Antiracism" increasing racism and hatred and destroying mostly minority/black neighborhoods. It's sick!
