Repair Theft

By Leo Gura - November 23, 2024

Even repair is now theft.

All forms of corporate theft will flourish under a Trump administration. This is why right-wing populism will never succeed. Because it cannot solve these problems that everyday people face. Right-wing populism is peak self-deception. The very people who support Trump will be exploited and abused by the corporate powers that run amok in his administration. Because right-wing populism is just neoliberalism minus any checks and balances. Trump supporters are so blinded by vibes and culture war issues that they are incapable of seeing that Trumpism is neoliberalism, and neoliberalism is at the core of what’s wrong with American politics, because neoliberalism ensures that wealth inequality worsens and the middle class is destroyed as corporations leech all the profits for themselves. People vote for Trump thinking he is some solution to corporate rule, but he will only increase the power corporations have over your life. The right-wing poses no threat to corporate power. Only progressive politics offers a solution there. Which is why progressive politics is the future. With right-wing politics all you will get is more corporate power, wealth inequality, and oligarchy. And that will corrupt the system even further, as they use those stolen profits to buy more elections and politicians. Not only will Trump not do nothing to stop it, he will accelerate it. Which is why oligarchs and corporations are eager to side with Trump.

Trump is a Trojan horse for neoliberalism. That’s what Trump supporters do not understand because they are too distracted with vibes.

One of the most important function of government is robust anti-trust enforcement. Trump will do exactly the opposite. The Biden administration has done some of the most robust anti-trust enforcement in two generations. Now all of that comes to an end. This is what right-wing populism really means, once you cut through all the culture war noise. But the average voter is so ignorant of this, so distracted by culture war noise, that they have no idea.

The only reason the right-wing wins elections is because people are deliberately misinformed about how government, economics, and morality really works. And the reason they are misinformed is because it benefits the rich and powerful. Money and power is not made by creating a more just and moral society, it is made by undermining justice and morality. Right-wingers do not understand what morality is, brainwashed as they are by religion, which is corrupted by the Devil. Which is why you see people like Jordan Peterson twist religion into a vehicle for injustice, immorality, corruption, corporate power, and authoritarianism. Religion is used to enslave the mind to serve the survival of the rich and powerful.

Now you start to see the awesome power of self-deception. Now you see how my talk of personal self-deception connects up with the world of politics and society at large, and how significant it is. And why I speak not only about personal development and philosophy, but also politics. Because all these things are interconnected.

It may seem like I am overly political for a self-help or spiritual teacher. But I’m not political. I’m just teaching about self-deception. It just so happens that self-deception has many tentacles and unforeseen down-stream consequences, and my work is grounded in profound holism. We don’t just look at one or two domains in this work, we look at everything needed to make sense of reality. You can’t make sense of reality without understanding what’s really going on with society, in which all of your personal development work is embedded. Self-deception is both an individual and a collective force. This is fundamental. You must be recognize, confront, and integrate the sickness of human civilization. That is the real work.

One of my functions is to help you see all the ways in which human civilization is sick. This is one of the things that comes with a serious commitment to truth.

I hope you appreciate how profoundly all this fits together.

I can show you how all of society really works. But beware, you will be so disgusted once you see it. Which is why almost nobody sees it. But the truth is that mankind is profoundly sick. The reason conservatives don’t see it is because it hurts too much. And since conservatives are more attached to society as-it-is than leftists, it hurts them more. If you understood in one fell swoop how sick mankind is, you would have an existential crisis. People like Jordan Peterson exist to keep you asleep to this truth. That is literally their job. That’s why they get paid tens of millions of dollars and I don’t. Because I do not serve the sick system. And the reason I don’t is because my loyalty is to truth, not to mankind. One of my functions is to serve as a lighthouse to those who wish to pull themselves up out of the quagmire that is human civilization. In order to serve that function I have to take extra precautions to make sure that my mind is not corrupted by human kind. Because any corruption within my mind will mislead you. Assuming this responsibility is what it means to be developed.

Somewhere along the way my life purpose transformed into being a lighthouse of truth for mankind. This is why I speak so much about corruption.
