Understanding The Hegelian Dialect Is To Understand Our Slow Road Towards Tyranny

Hegel's insights were not some diabolical world take-over plot, but a look into the human mind, available as tools to thinkers of any political party or belief system.

Well said. He was not right about many things but was in objective pursuit of human knowledge about human consciousness and thought.

A variant on the Hegelian dialectic is Lenin’s dictum. Two steps forward, one step back. Thus even in retreat they have won because it is only a half step back, they then move forward another two steps. The result is they are always several steps ahead in their plans. Only a revolution can reverse course after that.

No fair blaming Marx on Hegel. What Marx did was sort of turn some of Hegel's observations into a sort of a simplified "technology" for political action. If anything, Hegel was more or less apolitical.

This, IMHO, is one probable reason why Marx has been so attractive to the immature. He's simple. Hegel wasn't. The great triumph of the Marxists is that they have been able to lead so many, including key members of the GOP, into thinking that compromise with them is some sort of possibility.

Today's Republicans are playing a crude sort of weak 1917 Kerensky Government to the well organized Marxist-Leninists of the Obama Regime. As an example, I offer the very lame performance offered by the GOP during this Lame Duck session.

I pray that they wake the Hell up. We don't have time for this.
