While friends and family are lamenting their "white privilege" and vowing to own their complicity in "systemic oppression," Jon explains how a Marxist revolution is actually taking place, and it's not just a political movement---it's a new religion.
The Catholic Pope is a good example of a marxist
This whole thing is a religion, or rather a cult.
Obeisance to the media gods.

I am a proud capitalist, but what we have right now ain't it.
No wonder the communists have pitchforks out...
FYI - they are not your friends.
They will be the first to turn you in.
Good point! What we are experiencing is not the “Free Market”. If axes on small businesses are so crippling, it is extremely hard to make it, while Megacorporations oh no taxes!?! This cannot continue...
Had plenty of leftwing acquaintances in my lifetime. They are good for sharpening my debating skills the left.
Marxism has always been about religion, and its influence is fostered by the substitution of some impossible-to-attain idealistic paragon for an almighty Creator.
The key here is in the substitution. Marxism has to disavow even the existence of a formal religion, but there remains a vacuum that can only be filled with some imaginary projection of a truly selfless, altruistic society of individuals that all think as of one mind.
Socialism as proposed has never worked for any human being, because the natural tendency of every living creature is to acquire as much of the resources of this planet for itself FIRST, not to the point of mere satisfaction, but to the point of sheer avarice. Only when avarice is sated, does there appear the first glimmerings of sharing, and doing good for others. And even this is often perverted and twisted as the torch is handed down from one generation to the next.
When all else is stripped away, the false promise of equality that is held up as the ideal of socialism is simply dropped, and by necessity, the elite that has found its way into control must continue the command-and-control mindset, becoming, willingly or not, a militaristic society, indistinguishable from all the other strongman cultures that have emerged over the ages of mankind. Kill the king, you can take his job. But if you take a shot at the king, and miss, no one weeps for you. The consequences are swift and final.
Right, but goes without saying - the leadership sets the tone.
Get new friends.
And the American bishops.
“FYI - they are not your friends.

Bingo Award!!!! very true
Yes I don’t see the risk for big corporations anymore when if something bad happens they are covered by the Fed gov
That’s a win-win situation for them
Because they are not your friends.
You can sing them this song
