The current trend of “empowerment” is on a recognizable trajectory, but the New Left doesn’t heed the canary in the coalmine.
The New Left in today’s America has incorporated into its ideology the thesis of Critical Race Theory, which is an offspring of Critical Theory, which is an offspring of Marxism. As such, it borrows heavily from Marx’s ideas and applies them, often creatively so, to the American society.
One of the main ideas of Marx was a reversal of the power structure to impose a dictatorship of the proletariat (the noun proletariat was used to denote the laborer class, or what we call blue-collar workers). Marx claimed this was the only practical way to ensure that blue-collar workers (allegedly incapable of succeeding on their own in a “capitalist” society) are not ruthlessly exploited by greedy “capitalists.”
Well, the New Left in today’s America traded Marx’s ideas about protection of the proletariat from exploitation, for the protection of any “oppressed” class from its “oppressors.” Although the New Left's ideologues don’t say it openly, based on their commitment to Marx’s teachings one can logically conclude that they are trying to impose on America a dictatorship of the “oppressed” with their newest mantra, Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity (DIE), as one of the main tools for such an imposition.
And it shows. More and more individuals are propped up in public and corporate power structures based not on their merits and talents, but on their membership in any of the “oppressed” classes. For instance, being black, “female,” LGBTQ++, a non-Caucasian immigrant (including descendants thereof), etc., often makes up for a lack of qualifications. Just look at the Biden administration, which is mostly a collection of members of the “oppressed” classes who, except for their “oppressed” status, do not demonstrate adequate preparation

The left is a coalition of the malcontent groups. They want to take revenge for their perceived grievances and the leftist leadership makes sure to inflame their anger at every opportunity. They even create new grievance groups. The latest is the transgenders. These people have no business anywhere near power.
I think our society is now dominated by Cluster B psychological disorders. These involve unpredictable, dramatic, or intensely emotional responses to things. The four main cluster B disorders are:
Antisocial
Borderline
Histrionic
Narcissistic
I have no idea how such a society heals itself. Yes, turning to God would do it, but that sort of humility — “Thy will be done” — is the complete opposite of the cluster B disorders.
There. Fixed it.
“...the Biden administration, which is mostly a collection of members of the “oppressed” classes...”
More like the ‘Star Wars’ Bar Scene menagerie of weirdos.
TOWARDS IT????
We’re there and entrenched and has been for a long time..
It just now being exposed at this point.
ping
LOL!
Have you ever seen a more entitled and coddled group of ‘oppressed’ people in your life??
They award themselves darn near everything, but still manage to consistently waste it all.
When I was in college, one of the other students (a real whiner, minority type) complained always about how undeserved they were.
In the mean time she was driving a new car, had designer eyeglasses, an expensive manicure, attending school on government assistance, etc.
BTW ... My car was 13 years old!
I see them occasionally around here; sickening how they take our tax dollars and complain about their living 10 clicks above everyone else.

Individuals with such psychological disorders usually pass those disorders onto their offspring, not only perpetuating the cycle, but also expanding it in numbers.
