Woke: A Race-Based Religion of Bureaucratic Status Seeking (Intersectionality)

Partial Transcript from above video:

...So using the economic argument of Marx, this makes no sense. What I explained to you before is, it's not economics that drives human history. It's religion that drives human history. So we settle down in order to practice a cult to practice a religion because maybe one place was considered divine for whatever reason. And as a result, we develop our culture which led to civilization. 

So the Marx formulation that religion comes last is wrong. It's religion that comes first. Okay? It's religion that leads to agriculture which leads to civilization. So that's what Marx gets wrong. 

Also the transition from feudalism to capitalism was not driven by technology. It was driven by religion. All right. So let me explain. Okay. So the feudalism the dominant religion at the time was the Catholic religion. When we when we go into industrial capitalism the dominant religion is Protestimism. Okay. So as we discussed before the Catholic religion was an imperial bureaucracy led by the pope, and there were many religious reformers who thought this was abhorrent. This went against the will of God. And so what they proposed was this. They proposed a religion which was democratic in which everyone had access to God. Okay? Before you had to listen to the priests. You couldn't read the Bible by yourself. Now you had to read the Bible by yourself in order to access God by yourself. Okay? 

And there were two major different there are two major transitions. The first is before in order to get to heaven you have to use justification by works. All this means is you do good things you give money to the church. You primarily give money to the church. Okay. All right. But because the Protestants want to reduce the power of the Catholic Church, they said no. What matters is justification by faith. It doesn't matter how much money you give to the church. What matters is do you truly believe in God? Okay, that's what matters. 

So that's the first major difference. Uh and then the process in in order to reduce the power of the church uh because the church said only if you listen to us can we guarantee you access to heaven. Right? So what the protestant said is no. Um access to heaven is predestined. Uh so they have predestination. In other words, at the beginning of time, God has already decided who will go to heaven and who will go to hell. He's already decided. So doesn't matter what the church tells you. It doesn't matter how much money you give to the church, you're all going to hell if you don't believe truly believe in God. All right? 

So, so the Protestant religion was a direct response to the Catholic religion. Now, this creates a new problem. Okay? The problem is this. How do you know you truly believe in God? How do you know that you are one of the elect? How do you know that you were chosen by God to go to heaven? This creates anxiety, right? Anxiety as we know leads to OCD, obsessive-compulsive disorder, right? 

So how do you compensate for OCD? Well, you make a lot of money. But not only do you make a lot of money, but you don't spend it because that wealth now is an indicator to you and to others that you are truly one of the elect, that you are saved by God, that you were chosen by God to go to heaven. And that's the birth of capitalism. It was not technologydriven because the technology at that time was everywhere. But it was only in Europe did you have industrial capitalism. It was because of the Protestant faith. That's what drove it. 

So you're generating anxiety. Do you understand this? You won't give money to this to God because God doesn't need your money. Okay? But having this money is confirmation to yourself that you will go to heaven. Because this money can only be made because of your faith in God. Do you understand? Okay. How do you know you believe in God? Because you worked hard and God made you wealthy. And that's the logic driving capitalism.  So Marx missed this. 

So let's summarize and say look, Marx made three fundamental mistakes. The first is people care about religion, not economics. Okay? It's religion that drives human history, not economics. That's the first mistake he made. 

Second mistake that he made is people care about God, not heaven. Okay? In other words, we're going to heaven not because we think it's a five-star hotel with like lots and lots of like I don't know like lobsters and steaks and all you eat buffets. That's not the reason why we're going to heaven. We're going to heaven to be with God because God represents eternal truth, eternal salvation. We want to be with God. Okay. 

The third is people care about status, not class. So in other words, throughout most of of human history, we didn't have a concept of money. So for example, the Vikings when they went off to steal, they stole lots of gold, right? But when they got back to the village, they would host hold a big feast for everyone and they would waste all this money. You understand? Because there's actually no point in having money. You couldn't spend it. If you died, you couldn't keep it. So, so you you made money, you generate wealth in order to raise your status within the community. Okay? And that's why you wore gold because the gold signified that you're of high status within the community. All right? 

So throughout most of of human history and still even today, we seek status not class. The class concept was created because of industrial capitalism, because of the free market. Okay? Because now people were mobile. Okay? But before it was about status because Marx interpreted history incorrectly and he didn't really understand human psychology. Mao, Stalin all understood that people want a religion. They want to be they want to feel close to God. So they made themselves God. Okay? And people want status. And that's why it's important to have bureaucracy.

At the end of the Industrial and beginning of the Information Eras in America, the Professional Managerial Class (PMC) bureaucratic priesthood merely substituted the Race-Sex-Gender Struggle for Class Struggle in a modified version of Marx's "Class vs Status Seeking struggle" mistake.  And then to formally confer social status, created a race-sex-gender based table of Intersection Race-Sex-Gender social ranking values.

Trump is the enemy.  Why?  Because he is restoring "gold" as the social status marker ranking value, and has thereby challenged the bureaucratic priesthood's DEI intersectional social order.  And reducing taxes starves the government bureaucracy, much as Protestants quit donating to the Catholic church during the Reformation.
