“But I laugh at America’s fears of a new world order controlling the hemisphere, because my people have been dealing with that for the last five hundred years.”

It’s not a conspiracy. There is no one “behind it”. It is a philosophy believed in and adhered to by many. There are leaders of course, out front leading the way. And I have named several of them.
It has developed over decades. Been adapted and adopted by many different groups. You might as well ask "Who’s behind conservatism or communism or liberalism or republicanism.
You know who what is? Tell us all what you know. You have the floor.
So, what is meant by culture? What makes cultures the same or different? What are the main determinants of culture change. What was the most significant change in human culture?
Going after culture generators
forge relationships with writers, producers, celebrities and decision-makers in Hollywood who can leverage their powerful platforms to speak out against gun violence, call for commonsense laws and support local community efforts to raise awareness about gun safety.
Giffords, who has growing followings on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook,
Herbert Marcuse Repressive Tolerance 1965.
What happens when you purge history?
40% of German youths 14-16 don’t know what Auschwitz was.

Culture generators are important to any cause. Why do you think Mexican food is so popular in Southern California? Or why is baseball considered “America’s oldest past time”?
Acting as though there is some nefarious shadow group in the background pulling the levers of culture to carry out an evil plan is ridiculous and republiqanon.
Name one thing said by progs that should be silenced.
The Cause is not a shadow anything. They are out in the open. And winning.
They aren’t hiding.
That offends cons?
Every thing I can think of is not con specific or prog specific.
Got any examples?
I didn’t say anything about “cons”. I’m asking you.
Name one thing progs say that should be repressed.
Republiqanon.
You are definitely more into conspiracies than I originally thought.
I also like this underlying theme that whatever this dominate culture will be is inherently bad, so we must be aware of it to stop it.
It’s not a conspiracy. It is a strategy being well executed.
I never said anything about “inherently bad”, but this: “that whatever this dominate culture will be” is an admission on your part. So thank you. Dominant.
Now we can have a conversation about what the dominant culture they want would look like. What do you think?
You know who they are and what they believe. What are they building?
Oh, and accusing me of believing in conspiracy theories is an attempt to repress and unperson. It won’t work, mostly because it is not true. It’s actually a rather feeble attempt.
You know and I know what the strategy is and where it comes from. They are very open about it.
The post you replied to was about offending cons. So I was confused.
I honest can’t think of anything progressive specific that would fit the same category of what we were talking about earlier (ie public school curriculum).
In public (education), can’t think of anything prog specific either. For example l, attacks on religion. Not a prog specific thing… for every prog atheist there is a con islamophobe.
“Repressing” also depends on the setting. Racist in your own home? Your prerogative. Shouting racist ideals on a busy street corner. No.
Creationism in public schools… nah. Creationism taught in church or at home. Fine.
It’s not as black and white as you want it to be. Which is why I find your GRAMSCI!!! Discovery hilarious.
Any category.
How about shouting “institutional racism” or “global warming” on a street corner?
You seem to have some pretty black and white standards in that post. Ok as long as it stays in the closet? Is the public square more yours than mine?
You’re proving it correct, you realize that.
Who is building this strategy?
Should have put “dominant”. What is currently the dominant culture? What was it in 1980s? 1960s?
I see many different cultures. Some coexist well with each other and others clash. But dominant?
Answered above.
“Unperson” is not a thing.
“You know what THEY are doing” “They are trying to dominate”
Statements like that smell like conspiracies. Non specific, ambiguous, shadowy people changing yer culture.
It’s already built.
Liberalism.
Where?
Yes it is and has been for years. Read the people who developed the ideas you support. What do you think Jim Crow was? For one example.
The Woke. It’s not a conspiracy, it is a way of thinking.
Let’s see:
- Religion - check
- Family
- Media
- Education system - check
- Legal system - check
3 out of 5, you can do better.
