In the 1920s, the Soviet Union pandered to its "native" (koreni) ethnic minorities that had been swept up under Russian and then Soviet rule with a program called korenizatsiya (nativification or "rootsification") in exactly this way to turn them against their class enemies.

I know I've really been harping on korenizatsiya lately and that it's a very foreign concept, but it's extremely important for us to understand. It's the fundamental basis for the DEI programs we've been running, and it's also the exact mechanism of the "native" Woke programming.

I think it's generally very important for us to understand when we're running a direct Soviet Communist import program and for people to learn to recognize a direct Soviet Communist import program, so I'm talking a lot about it. It's not just "Leftist insanity" or empathy.

Land acknowledgements are a direct ideological descendent of Soviet korenizatsiya, as are many of the other features of both DEI and Leftist incursion into reservations and with native populations, esp. in Alaska, Hawaii, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, etc. It's a tactic.

The way the imported Muslim populations are being treated and handled in Europe, the UK, and Canada (eventually further) are also a form of the korenizatsiya playbook being run by modern Communists in a novel way: import the "natives" with a flipped script.

The same is true for illegal alien "migrants" in the US, Canada, etc. It is also a form of the korenizatsiya playbook being run by modern Communists in a novel way: import the "natives" with a flipped script, same, same.

Korenizatsiya (DEI + Indigeneity, cf. Affirmative Action) doesn't work. In the Soviet Union by the end of the 1920s, it became a serious source of ethnic strife. The people implementing it KNOW it doesn't work except to consolidate power and cause problems with Soviet solutions.

Korenizatsiya ran alongside the USSR's "New Economic Policy (NEP)" through the 1920s and eventually became a serious impediment to the implementation of its later initiatives and agendas by the early 1930s, so it was discarded violently, as in the Holodomor in Ukraine.

We see a similar phenomenon now. Larry Fink (BlackRock) and all the other globalist players all talk about "transition investing," "sustainability," and "inclusive capitalism" with a "stakeholder capitalism" model. These are all just rebrands of old Communist schemes.

Transition investing and "sustainability" are effectively our New Economic Policy, and Western korenizatsiya (DEI) has been a central feature of it. Now it's a liability, so they're jettisoning it to advance the NEP. ESG and sustainability continue while dropping DEI.

Stakeholder capitalism is literally a rebrand of the Worker's Soviets, which had Affirmative Action korenizatsiya representation (inclusion) shot right through them. Instead of workers' Soviets, we now have experts' Soviets, i.e., "stakeholders." It's a new Sovietism.

I'd be quaint and say "history is rhyming," but that's BS. The same bad players are trotting out the same bad playbook to create the same bad results, just with new faces and a new facade. We are heading for a bad time if we don't comprehend these moves and fight back smartly.
