Suicide

 

I subscribe to online Chris Rufo publications that are emailed to me, and I read them, and copy the lines that interest me, and then comment on them. On 10/13/2023, Rufo sent me an email entitled, Civilizational Suicide.

 

Rufo: “Harvard finds itself in an ideological bind. Following Hamas’s horrific terror attack against Israel, the Harvard College Palestine Solidarity Committee issued a statement co-signed by 33 other student groups blaming the Jewish state for the murder rape, and mutilation of its own citizens by Hamas. ‘Today’s events did not occur in a vacuum,’ the statement read. ‘The apartheid regime in the only one to blame.’

 

The reaction was swift. The media, public, and prominent political figures condemned the students for rationalizing atrocities against innocent people, including women, children, and the elderly. Harvard’s administration, long accustomed to toeing the radical line, hesitated for days before releasing a generic statement of condemnation and writing that ‘no student group—not even 30 student groups—speaks for Harvard University or its leadership.

 

Meantime, former Harvard president Lawrence Summers expressed surprise, wondering on social media why the university could not ‘find anything approaching the moral clarity of Harvard statements after George Floyd’s death or Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.’

 

It is hard to believe that Summers is being sincere. As anyone in Harvard’s orbit would know—especially a long-time professor and former university president—the politics of decolonization, critical race theory, and anti-Israel agitation has been a staple of public life on that campus for decades. And it is not a cause driven solely by misguided students: administrators, department leaders, and prominent faculty have all developed it, institutionalized it, or at least publicly deferred to the radicals who did.”

 

My response: these Harvard college groups and their wicked, cruel, heartlessness, their honest but brutal anti-Semitic joy and public glee that genocidal Hamas thugs butchered civilian Jews, is to be expected. Their demonic hatred of Jews, Americans, Christians, and Westerners is now openly bragged about by them. Why are the taxpayers allowing these students to get a free ride at taxpayer expense while seeking for the Jews and ourselves, eventually, to be murdered? We need to pull the plug on these people, deport the ones that are foreign, and allow no more Muslim extremists to be allowed into America. We need to defund Harvard.

 

Rufo: “One needs only to browse the current Harvard course catalog to see how deeply the rhetoric of ‘decolonization’ has been embedded. One course, ‘Global Rebellion: Race, Solidarity and Decolonization,’ draws on critical ethnic studies, a subfield of critical race theory, and promises to promote ‘Black, Asian, Latinx, and indigenous radicalism’—that is, left-wing ethnopolitics for everyone but whites and Jews. The goal, according to the course description, it to ‘discuss how BIPOC communities forged cross-racial, internationalist solidarities to rebel against global white supremacy.’

 

Another course: ‘Colonialism and its Postcolonial/Decolonial Afterlives,’ features readings of Lenin and Frantz Fanon, the latter of whom argued that ‘violence is a cleansing force’ that ‘frees the native from his inferiority complex’ and ‘restores his self-respect.’ The rest of the course description is a repetition of slogans from the old Third World revolutionary fronts, promising to ‘explore the relationship between empire and the rise of industrial capitalism, the significance of race, class and gender in colonial extraction, and the modes of violence on which it was founded.’ The solution? The usual metaphors: ‘refusal,’ ‘resistance,’ ‘postcolonialty,’ and ‘decoloniality.’

 

What might these terms mean? To answer that question, we can turn to a Harvard-funded program called ‘Decolonize Harvard.’ In 2021, Harvard’s Derek Bok Center hired Marcelo Garzo Montalvo, a visiting professor of Latinx Studies who uses ‘he/the’ pronouns, to lead an initiative about ‘decolonizing’ the university. The premise was simple: administrators, faculty, and students, Montalvo said in his recorded lectures, must ‘understand and frame Harvard as a settler-colonial, genocidal, and Eurocentric institution’ built on the ‘foundational violence’ of white Europeans.

 

The solution, Montalvo said, was to engage in a ‘decolonizing process’ that embeds critical theory, ethnopolitical struggle, and left-wing pedagogy throughout the university. After this process is completed, Montalvo speculated, ‘Harvard and the settler university (may) cease to be recognizable as Harvard as such.’ The goal could be, ontologically and epistemologically speaking, ‘to demolish the university’ altogether.”

 

My response: We must expose and renounce all this outrageous, mendacious, accusatory, often-believed talk, of whites and Jews as colonizers, oppressors, and white supremacists, set up as the congenitally evil groups that subjugate, colonize, and abuse all other oppressed groups, blacks, Latinos, indigenous peoples, Asians, women, the poor, the transgender and LBTQ people.

 

This is Marxian, pure and simple. The world for humans is nothing but a brutal, endless struggle for power. There is no right or wrong, there is only which identity groups wins and eradicates or subjugates its rivals or is eradicated or subjugate by a neighboring tribe. That is all there is and to be the victor, the tribe that ascends to the be king of the mountain, this new, ruling oppressor class is victorious, and their ascendancy is a moral achievement, they believe. The Marxists claim to support the out-groups against the in-groups. Revolution, murder, genocide, decolonizing the oppressor groups, taking all their land, their possessions, their liberty, even their lives—it is all morally acceptable and consistent with conducting the revolution. Anything done to Jews in Israel will soon be visited upon whites, Europeans and Christians after Israel is decolonized from the sea to the river, and all Israelis are wiped out.

 

These Marxist ideologues are demons, true believers, pushing their mass movement and revolution upon whites and the Jews, and they will do to us, if they can, what the Hamas butcherers and Nazis did to those 1400 Jews, all in God’s name. Their campaign of genocide is enthusiastically supported by these 30 Harvard student groups. It is a righteous victory for the Palestinians. They and Harvard need defunding right now.

 

Rufo: “Israel too figures into this dialectic. In his program to ‘decolonize Harvard,’ Montalvo promoted materials highlighting Harvard student and faculty activism against Israel’s supposed ‘apartheid regime’ and ‘settlement enterprise.’ The student groups accused Israel of ‘structural and cultural forms of violence’ and called for both ‘scholarly action’ and ‘collective resistance’ against the Jewish state. Five Harvard faculty also issued a statement linking the work of ‘Palestinian liberation’ to the work of decolonizing Harvard, arguing for ‘a more robust commitment to teaching about Palestine, to incorporating works by Palestinians in our syllabi, to inviting Palestinian scholars and community members to speak at university events, and to supporting campus activism for Palestinian liberation.’

 

Montalvo and his fellow travelers make clear that ‘Decolonization is Not a Metaphor,’ as the title of a scholarly paper asserts. As Palestinian militants decolonize Israel, the logic goes, domestic academics should decolonize institutions such as Harvard.”

 

My response: I have heard enough. These devils, these latent devil-worshipers, are pure haters, murderers, nihilists, and revolutionaries. They mean to decolonize and wipe out all Jews in Israel from the sea to the river; then they will wipe out all whites from the face of the earth, and steal our possessions and land. Their greed and malice are fathomable but bottomless.

 

We must unite among ourselves, take back America, protect Israel, stay heavily armed and fight these people to a standstill, if not outright victory. We are the good guys with God and right on our side. Leftists and Islamic extremists are the bad guys with Satan and wrong on their sides. We must win and defeat them, period.

 

When we see how the Progressives, the Democrats that are Progressive, the Communists, and the radical Islamists are pure evil incarnate, militantly parading around, justified, they claim, by an ancient, crude, backwards, failed ethical code. This is pure altruist-collectivism at work: we now have our clearest picture of how and why altruist-collectivist ethics is satanic and must not be our primary ethical code anymore. We can judge this tree by its fruit.

 

Rufo: “As we have seen this week, the outcome of ‘decolonization’ is barbarism. For Hamas, it means murdering women, men, children, and the elderly, executing innocent people on the street, and mutilating infants in their homes. For the radical academics, the process is less brutal but barbaric all the same: it means destroying our best institutions, obliterating academic standards, and elevating witchcraft, voodoo, and pseudo-science into positions of prestige. The philosopher Levy Strauss once defined nihilism as opposition to civilization as such—and this is precisely what the decolonizing academics have done, acting out their vengeful fantasies to ‘abolish’ Harvard, once the crowning symbol of Western civilization.

 

Americans need to understand that the massacre in Gaza is not only a foreign outrage. The same ethno-radicals who cheer Hamas destruction of civilization abroad also want to commit civilizational suicide here at home.”

 

My response: We need the Divine Couple, the various good deities, the Good Spirits, and all children of light to rally to prevent the Marxist reign of the beast from overtaking all humanity and wiping all out. Mavellonialism is the cultural, philosophical, ethical and spiritual antidotes to the ideological poison drunk by billions of humans in 2023.
