The Long March Through the Institutions | Ep. 2

The “long march through the institutions” is the skeleton key for understanding the modern Left: it’s how they captured power, how they shape the narrative, and how they influence what you think about the world around you.

    Very compelling. People don't know this and they run around thinking they are fighting for social justice. Instead, they are fighting for a machine, power, and evil.

    The rejection of the working class because of their social conservatism and religiosity dates back to Antonio Gramsci in the 1920's. He is the originator of the Long March through the Institutions that was later taken up by later Neo-Marxists, especially Herbert Marcuse who changed the focus of the Left from the working class to certain racial minorities, sexual deviants, and radical women. Marcuse reasoned that these groups would never be accepted by mainstream bourgeois culture and so would never "sell out" for higher wages and better working conditions as the working class had done.

    I live in Portland (yes, I know), here's what I'm doing. This November, Oregon voters will elect a new Governor. I've emailed the campaigns of Christine Drazan (R) and Betsy Johnson (I) asking they address the issues that are important to this voter. In addition to offering my own suggestions, I'm specifically directing their attention to Christopher Rufo's reporting on CRT and Gender Exploration in our classrooms, and to his analysis and recommendations on homelessness (all excellent work). My goal is to get these issues into the public square, but that will only happen if more people start asking questions. I've sent versions of my emails to the Oregon GOP and to local news stations/publications in hopes of motivating our “journalists” to dig into these issues, and to ask the candidates to respond. I've even made it easy for our news “professionals” by providing direct links to CR's work. Make your voice heard.....make some noise.

    Understanding of marxist ideology and fighting tactics, its strength and weaknesses is essential. "If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.

Universities are getting even stricter in terms of ideology and even center left liberal types are being shunned. The only answer imo is to create new institutions like they are going in Austin. It’s going to be a very long road Conservatives made a huge mistake in losing the major institutions in this country

    I have not done a deep dive into Rufo's work against this toxic cult and its destructive teachings, but so far, he does an okay job . . . but he seems to have a more pedestrian, relatively surface level approach to the deeper roots of this arm of the existential threat that is neo-Marxism. The Frankfurt school and Gramsci had formulated the concept of the long march through the institutions, and Marcuse's "One Dimensional Man" and "Repressive Tolerance," along with Paulo Freire's "Pedagogy of the Oppressed," and "Politics of Education" served to open the doors of the universities and K-12 schools to the myriad iterations of critical theory (which are, essentially, multiple colors of exactly the same poorly cobbled shoe). I do like Rufo's approach, though . . . and I may find, upon listening to more of his podcasts, interviews and lectures, that he does to a deeper dive than what I've seen so far. Either way . . . there is definitely a place for Rufo in this vital battle, and he has a very important voice in this respect. We already have a James Lindsay to do the deep space dive into the nightmare ideology that has captured so much of the left, and so much of our society and culture . . . we need our Chris Rufo's as well! Thank you for what you are doing Chris Rufo!! We need your voice out there!!

    Well said John, Gramsci was talking about the "long march" around the early 1930's which coincided with Mao's revolutionary Long March starting up around then. So, I wonder how much Gramsci's phrase came from that, albeit in a metaphorical sense. Gramsci influenced the Frankfurt school and members of the Frankfurt school literally came to Columbia and elsewhere in the US in the 1960s. Regarding who else talks about the Long March/ Cultural Marxism, nearly every conservative worth their salt is aware of this topic. Breitbart was talking about this over 10 years ago. No one goes deeper than Lindsay, but D'Souza, Peterson, Charlie Kirk, Bannon all talk about it some.

"Rufo, who has led several recent campaigns against critical race theory and school curriculums on “gender ideology,” did a Lincoln fellowship in 2017. He told me that Claremont is a “brotherhood” of the sort that has largely vanished from American life, “all of these places where people, and predominantly men, could get together, talk about important social and political issues, look at and investigate philosophical ideas and then chart a practical way forward.” The experience, he said, “put my life and my politics into sharp focus.” A central insight from Claremont is that “the man of action is someone to be admired. And it’s a kind of virtue to take things from the realm of ideas to the realm of action,” Rufo said. “And what I’ve been able to do is exactly that.” www.nytimes.com/2022/08/03/magazine/claremont-institute-conservative.html Otherwise, his wife is a computer program, working at Microsoft and Amazon, so she has probably made more than he has for most of his career.

    Rudi Dutschke never Supported any Woke Ideologies. Let alone Marx. Dutschke Invented the Mehod, but the Ideologies are new. The 68er never wanted sexual consent, antirasissm, woman quality, gender ideology or anything. All this crap comes from 80s US Postmodernism. Dutschke was a Christian Communist, who clashed both with State-Atheism in East Germany and Capitalism in West Germany. In fact by Hippie standard, he was pretty cultural conservative - believing in Marriage and Monogamy. Also his Revolutionary Idea involved conquering West-Berlin. A Plan what was at least not completly utopian, giving this very special place.
