Leftism Appeals To The Rich

Interesting:

How is it that progressives and other ideologues end up recruiting rich friends? You would think that would be an unfavorable group, but that’s simply not so…

It is even the case that in the book Philip Dru: Administrator, there is a full chapter devoted to going out and recruiting along these very lines.

Chapter X: Gloria Decides to Proselyte the Rich

Its true that the chapter in Dru is less than 5 full pages long but still, they understand very well how to recruit from within their targeted echelon…

Saul Alinsky has also noted this process, when he wrote:

I have on occasion remarked that I felt confident that I could persuade a millionaire on a Friday to subsidize a revolution for Saturday out of which he would make a huge profit on Sunday even though he was certain to be executed on Monday.

In that one statement, Alinsky highlights the millionaire’s openness to the r-selected reproductive strategy, their craving for limitless wealth, and their short-term cognitive time-frames. He doesn’t mention where they stand on rearing, sex, abortion, welfare, and so on, but you don’t have to ask. These characters will be r all the way.

The problem is free resource availability, and the change in mindset that it creates. When you have an organism that is programmed to go leftward whenever resources exhibit a glut, all attempts to deal with that must begin with an understanding of the biological mechanism, and the reason for it having evolved.

None of this is logic, reason, or even love. It is all base programming urges which even transcend emotion. It may turn into love, or fear, or anger, but it begins as an overwhelming urge to make free resources, lack of disparate outcomes, and raw hedonism happen.

Once that urge is frustrated, everything flows from that, from the emotions, to the logical arguments. Our mission must be to delegitimize the urge by revealing its maladapted origins.

Spread r/K Theory, because the rabbits are the problem

“I could persuade a millionaire on a Friday to subsidize a revolution for Saturday out of which he would make a huge profit on Sunday even though he was certain to be executed on Monday.”, kind like what will be happening to the gays and feminists in islamified parts of Europe. Gay marriage just passed in Germany- so it must be their Sunday.

Was Alinsky’s millionaire a self-made man or the pampered son of one?

I know understand better what Christ meant when he said that it would be easier for a camel to walk through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven.
