It’s literally the philosophy of pride, envy, anger, and sloth.

“The problem with socialism is you eventually run out of everyone else’s money.”

Migrants being sent to Ireland as well even though the public complaining saying NO. The UN needs to be stopped NOW!

Students need to be taught, "Great minds think for themselves."

Americans are so nice and kind that they have given their country, our home, to foreign illiterates.

“Human beings are born with different capacities. If they are free, they are not equal. And if they are equal, they are not free.” ― Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

It is all about EVIL vs. GOOD. If you do not believe that we are in a fight for our lives, against evil, then you are not paying attention.

Most people miss the fact that modern Western socialism are Mensheviks. They split from the Bolsheviks and decided to gradually transform the Western civilisation into a Marxist utopia. Bolsheviks wanted to burn down, abolish everything with terror and militancy, and rebuild everything from scratch, like what the concentration camps of Xi's China where they re-educate and force China language on other ethic groups. The Mensheviks became modern social democrats, then from them the greens, the postmodernists, and finally the seemingly last metamorphosis, the Woke. I am from the Nordic countries here in Europe and I can tell you we are in deep shit, we will soon become like Cuba. Economic growth now is mostly zero and below, debt is growing exponentially. The free education and healthcare is no longer sustainable. Most of the EU parliament, more than 70% is lefty, they've managed to totally replace free speech with hate speech laws. Strong communistic regulations have been preventing growth everywhere in the EU. We're almost done with Enlightenment values, we have now Woke values. [the commie AI of google keeps deleting my responses, why would you delete below?!] There's no such thing as "pure capitalism", you either have it or you don't. Capitalism is not a manifesto written down by ideologues, it's basically free exchange of goods and services. Capitalism doesn't mean don't help the poor, don't provide free meals, but it means if you did, then someone had to pay for it. The idea that the lefties contributed to the human progress, including rights of workers, is basically silly and has no data backing it up. The easiest way to understand this is by reading history. You don't wish to read history? Ok then, take a good look at the socialist systems around the world. My point was, I was talking about a hidden, political agenda by the Mensheviks; they've been using Marx's so-called theory of alienation to slowly change Europe. First they introduce a small change, then enforce it, re-educate the young, the most vulnerable class in the society in terms of exploitation, to accept the change as the new normal, then move on to the next change; immediacy -> alienation -> re-appropriation. What are the changes? Mini steps toward a fully fledged Marxist autocracy. Now we've more laws against "words" than ever before in Europe. Words that have been redefined, distorted in such a way that discourage you from speaking them. Silencing the mass seems to be the ultimate goal of the Mensheviks. You don't get this until you suddenly find yourself in the mostly-lefty-courts of Europe.

Vladimir Lenin summed it up quite nicely about 100 years ago when he said "The goal of Socialism is Communism."

Communism, socialism, marxism, modern liberalism, collectivism, and so forth; all have at least one thing in common: ...they appeal to those who want something for nothing !!!

Its ancient evolutionary battle between peoples who learned cattling and farming and started building, vs people who never learned that and had to rob for a living.

they don't call it socialism here in America here they call it democracy.

"Communism doesn't work because people like to own things." ~ Frank Zappa

People all my life have spewed hatred for the ruling class, and yet many of them want to hand them more and more power.

It took them 100 years but it looks like they're very close to fulfilling their aims...

Venezuela, Cuba, and now Argentina used to be rich, vibrant countries; now, everyone except for those at the top, is POOR. Their wonderful countries were DESTROYED by Socialism.. I notice many of those quotes from the Communist Manifesto seem to be Coming True in the United States, as promoted by Congress. Not much difference---poverty, lack of freedom. CRT is the worst crime ever fostered on our innocent children, although changing a child's body to match their twisted sexual ideas is a close second. Tom DiLorenzo has a very clear mind and a very enjoyable sense of humor (something that is rare these days!) Thank you, Prof. DiLorenzo!

Envy seeks to destroy the other rather than improving one’s self!

100% spot on. One hundred years of failure, and it's still, literally exactly the same.

"The problem with socialism is sooner or later you run out of someone else's money to spend ". Margret Thatcher

Sweden should have taken a leaf out of Norway's book. Norway looks now to be the richest country in the world per capita, with a massive sovereign wealth fund earned from their North sea oil and gas industry !!

"The goal of socialism IS communism." Vladimir Lenin Liberalism is totalitarianism with a human face." Dr Thomas Sowell

Never forget that one of the S in USSR stood for Socialist. And somehow people still think socialism is a Good Idea.

The great irony of socialism is that for all the ‘People’s Republic’ of this and ‘People’s Republic’ of that, it’s never about, by or for the people, is it?

Save the Western history, Western hemisphere, and protect our Judeo-Christian values and traditions!

"Some decades before the first big feminist revolution, a German economist was sitting in a posh London library, furiously penning a book in which he swore up and down that one day, factory workers, abused and oppressed by their bosses for so long, would rise up, throw the bosses out, and take over the factories. He and his coworker died without ever getting to see their vision enacted. As World War I ignited and sent Europe up in flames, those who had read the pair’s work and become enchanted with its utopian vision watched with baited breath to see if the prophecy would be fulfilled. And fulfilled it was...in Russia. For the moment, it would go no further. Through the late teens and early 20s, Europe picked up the pieces, mopped up the blood, and with somewhat mixed results, tried to get on with their lives. There were no workers’ revolts. There were no poor people eating rich people. There was just plain work. To be sure, some of it was supervised by evil bosses, and some of it was done by children. But there were still factories, and those factories still had workers and bosses. What went wrong? Well, for one thing, the workers had just spent five years shooting and bombing each other. There were considerably fewer of them than there had been when Marx wrote Das Kapital. But there was a bigger problem. The few workers that were left just weren’t interested in socialism; especially those who didn’t work in factories. The jobs they had were not great, and frankly their bosses weren’t that great either-but they were surviving. In some cases they were even thriving. Many of them had grown up in poverty, and fought bitterly to escape it. Biting the hand the fed them did not seem like a great idea. Marx was quite nonchalantly disowned by the very demographic he had claimed to speak for. So a tiny cabal of German philosophers, certain of Marx’s veracity, decided on a different pathway to get his influence to the masses. Marx himself had waited for it to happen naturally. Lenin and Trotsky had brought it through a messy revolution. Neither would work with the peoples of the West. Capitalism was too deeply ingrained in the collective psyche. The group of philosophers, known as the “Frankfurt School”, blamed this condition, naturally, on those who had suborned it: Coca-Cola, Ford Motor Company, A&P, Radio City Music Hall...the list goes on. There was no way they would be able to release society from the addictions it had created for itself. The whole system would have to come down. Only then could something new be built in it’s place. The thinkers of the Frankfurt School were under no illusions that this would be an easy task. The destruction of five thousand years of tradition would not happen overnight, and it would not happen by itself. The first step was to get people to not like their society-to see it the way the Frankfurt school did. Having been rejected by their original audience, the Frankfurt School thinkers needed a new proletariat. That hadn’t worked in the microcosm in which Marx had tried it. But, why, the thought occurred to them, stop with just one group? What if they could create many proletariats? After all, history had given them plenty of other collective grievances and class struggles. The Civil War was only about six decades gone. The working poor in their arguments could be expanded to the poor in general, who could then be turned against the robber barons. And of course, the suffragettes were still embroiled in their struggle against the patriarchy. So Herbert Markuse and his Frankfurt School companions set out to make their case. They began by advocating for the end of everything that seemed too “normal” to them: marriage, jobs, music, philosophy, art...if socialism hadn’t produced it, then it was evil. The very world around you, they would say today, is an illusion; a gilded cage, if not created, then at least aided and exploited, by those in power to keep you blinded to the fact that you were a serf, enslaved by a powerful elite who would always enjoy power and privilege at your expense, that you will never have access to. And just who were these mysterious oppressors? That depended on who these new socialists were talking to. If you were poor, it was men like Carnegie, Rockefeller, and the bands of powerful corporate executives who followed them. If you were black, it was the whites who had enslaved your grandparents, and would have enslaved you if not for the brave progressives that had fought for the Thirteenth Amendment. (It was, in fact, Republicans who had fought for the Thirteenth Amendment-I’ll discuss the progressives’ chameleon-like ability to change political positions a bit later.) And if you were a woman, it was the men in your lives who had deceived you into marrying them, forced you into roles decided for you by society, against your will, and were routinely having their way with you at night. These progressive thinkers possessed a unique ability to figure out what made you as an individual angry-to find your mental weak point, and then tell you a story that you could relate to; that pressed the right buttons. Then they would offer you their antidote to this oppression, which was always revolution, followed by Marxism. Steinem and her misandrist followers were a product of this movement. The feminism of the 1960s, and the feminism of today, are not really feminist at all. They were just one of many disparate movements that had been co-opted by the progressives, and amalgamated into one big proletariat. No longer was socialism a workers’ movement that sought control of factories-it was now a struggle by anyone who had a grievance, against whoever had aggrieved them." From my upcoming book, "Silver Towers and Flying Cars: The Illusion of Progressivism, and the Reality"

I did a Sociology & Philosophy degree about ten, fifth-teen years ago. I put Marxism into my email search bar for a laugh and found an essay on Class Polarisation and Marxism. It's stunning how impressionable you can be when you are ignorant.

The only reason these Traitors haven't been given the dirt nap is the rest of us don't want to rot in prison.🙄

Spot on !

“Watermelons,” green on the outside and red on the inside. I’m definitely gonna be using that one 😂

The euphemism of "socialism" doesn't name the enemies of humanity. It obscures it. "If you don't know who you are and don't identify your 🥸 enemies, you will lose EVERY battle." Sun Tzu

Excellent!

Those criminal fools are lost in greed…

This should be mandatory viewing in all high schools.

This should be taught at all universities!

YOU HAVE TO FIGHT FOR YOUR FREEDOMS

Why? Because socialism is essentially envy politics as shown by Marx's best criticism of capitalism: that it is exploitative. Compared to what? Socialism is vastly more exploitative, as it wont share even with the middle class, which it calls the petty bourgeoisie. Envy seeks to tear down the other instead of improving oneself.

I'm surprised yuutoobe didn't ban this video. How refreshing. This speaks to my heart.

The universities are lost.

There is one who creates and one who destroys and those who follow each.

Excellent analysis. They do not change!

Thank God for truth tellers like him. I really REALLY hope it is enough to reverse the evils of post-modernism in the West.

Stalin banning the Grapes of Wrath movie is so ironic. It was meant to side with communism.

I'm a Univ of Alabama grad. Hate when we lose games to Auburn, but I have to give kudos to the Aubs for the Mises Institute. Wish Bama would start a F.A. Hayek type institute, then we'd have a lock on conservative economics throughout the U.S.

This should be mandatorily taught at high schools and colleges/universities nationwide!!!

I read in a Wilber smith novel many years ago that socialism creates the perfect society, as long as you have a capitalist to pay for it, in my opinion it summed it up so simply and perfectly

In the UK we are faced with the appalling prospect of another Labour government under Sir Keir Starmer. I foresee all of this happening to the point where therre may easily be civil unrest.

the reason we have traditions is that what we learn from our mistakes must be learned by future generations.

This is my Country's manifest. Much respect from Toronto Canada 🇨🇦

Total control and power through the annointed ones.

And here we are in 2024

This needs to be shared by everyone who can.

Marxism, Communism and Socialism never end well. The Soviet Union, Cuba, Venezuela are just a few examples, more will follow as time moves on.

Thank you, Tom, for sharing this information and trying to educate all Americans to reality. I truly appreciate your efforts!

Excellent, refreshing speech. Subscribed!

Step 1: Destroy everything Step 2: ? Step 3: Utopia

Gramsci had an admirer in U.S. academia who translated his works into English and formed a society to promote his views. He was a professor at Notre Dame University. His name was Joseph Buttigieg. And, yes, he was the father of our Secretary of Transportation and sometimes Presidential hopeful, Pete Buttigieg.

Thanks for the shout out.

This is crazy, living in 2024 I only see the acceleration of these ideologies especially because there going into our university’s and elementary schools it’s just crazy to think this might be our future. But that’s why I have faith in Christ and that he will keep all of the world safe during these hard times ❤ 🙏🏾

At about 5:10 he talks about a student that said, "I didn't know there was more than one school of economic thought. I have trying to get people to see how the SCHOOLS only taught one kind of "Economic thought" for decades. Let me tell you, the Schools teach "Keynes" was right about everything". On top of that, it is AMAZING to me how LITTTLE of economics are even required for someone to get a degree in most anything. If they teach Economics at all they teach Keynes and Socialism GOOD, everything else BAD. They teach we must have EMPLOYEES of a secret Elite that own the worlds Central Banks "know what is best for us". They want THEM to set LOW LOW interest rates and have the "CREATE Money" from thin air and CHARGE INTEREST RATES on this non existent "money". The "Keynesian Scheme" is our downfall among other things. Another thing that amazes me is how our system has evolved to the point Americans and Academia are AFRAID of the Market system, They are scared to death of "free markets" and Free Trade. This is ONE or our INFLATION problems we have all of the time. Like Milton Friedman said, "Inflation is the Cruelest TAX of all". That is really what it is a TAX you cannot avoid on COUNTERFEIT MONEY.

Nice to hear the truth of socialism

This Speaker has got it in one. This is what is taking place today. Too late to change.

Happening in Ireland 😢

I loved this speech! Thank you Sir! I was the only non-Marxist/Maoist in my Honours Sociology studies---I was a functionalist and my Advisor was, as an elite theorist, the only non-Maoist gaculty member....until they got him fired, that is. 'And then there were none'. Needless to say, my dissertation never got past the defense.

Communism is not about the redistribution of wealth. Just the opposite, Communism is the monopoly over everything -- wealth, power, thought -- all in the hands of the few. Antony C Sutton did an admirable job of amassing information to prove that communism is socialism, and that socialism is not a movement of the downtrodden but a scheme (a plot to enslave the world) supported and directed by the wealthiest of people. In 1938, Chaim Rakovsky told his NKVD interrogator that the bankers created the Communist state as a "machine of total power" unprecedented in history. In the past, due to many factors, "there was always room for individual freedom. Do you understand that those who already partially rule over nations and worldly governments have pretensions to absolute domination? Understand that this is the only thing that they have not yet reached..."

This needs to be listened to or read. I read it as my hearing couldn’t keep up with it and process the details. Wish I could underline the key points. Share if you feel the same way.

One could say they're achieving their goals.

I'm ashamed my fellow Brits could have fallen utterly under the thrall of such stupidity!

11:25 the speaker let’s one rip. 💨

Well presented sir…

Great information, thank you, God bless America ❤❤❤❤❤

Please publish the document, it is very valuable and needs to be circulated

This guy Mises was quite the clairvoyant. 😊 DiLorenzo is brilliant - and great to listen to.

Great information, thank you.

We have most of this in Finland. Already at 120k€ yearly income your direct tax goes close to 60%.

The war on the outside is to be fought by the ignorant, the inner war is fought and won only by the wise. Here is hidden a pearl of wisdom, take it, if you can.

Facts!!!!

Just read what Max Horkheimer, founder of "The Frankfurt School" had to say, as well as Nahum Goldman. They were both communists,..socialism IS communism!

I’m glad I watched this. Very interesting and unusual to see such truths online in 2024! So thank you.

I think we could boil down the desire for socialism to something simple: Any economic system will have more losers than winners, and the losers will favour any system that gives them free stuff.

Excellent

Thank you sir! 👍😍

Under the Biden administration or should I say Obama three ,we have an odd form of authoritarianism. The crackdown seems to be on political descent, not on criminality. We could use a little more authoritarian, policing of theft and property, crimes and a lot less on thought crimes..

I think they will try to use the current situation to their adventage. I don't think it will go the way they want. This might wake enough people to stop this cult of destruction and realise the damage they already did to our legacy. Thank you for this refreshing wake up call, damn 1922... people always seem to forget wisdom of the past when all goes well.

“I wonder how many such men in America would know that Communism, the New Deal, Fascism, Nazism, are merely so-many trade-names for collectivist Statism, like the trade-names for tooth-pastes which are all exactly alike except for the flavouring.” ― Albert Jay Nock (American classical liberal author, editor first of The Freeman and then The Nation, educational theorist, and social critic of the early and middle 20th century).

It's about placing the burden of everyone's existence on people of ability and achievement for the sake of rewarding indolence and failure. It's where the needs and desires of some are transformed into claims on the property and action of others.

Its amazing the opening of this from the book are EXACTLY my own sentiments i formed as well .. and it seems that no matter how many failures or text warning about it ,, their are greedy lazy and uneducated people who will embrace it

If you like this message look for: El Salvador president at CPAC. He’s been down the road we’re heading down. Barrack is driving the bus there. Victor Davis Hanson documented that even after we all surmised the same.

Canada is going thru this. There trying to bring this about step by step. Taxes called carbon taxes is what there about right now.

"Why?" Envy.

WE CAN AND ARE STOPING THE LIES AND BULL SHIT!!!!!! GOD BLESS LOVE AND TRUTH

And yet my son can't wait for it to happen here...my mind is blown...I guess I'm a defeatist...I don't think this is gonna end well..I don't see any path to normalcy ...

Well done.

We are imperfect beings who make imperfect things .when you read all of the ologies and isms theyall sound great on paper until you add imperfect humans and imperfect ologies and isms together you always get imperfection

We need anti-socialist legislation in this country

I had dropped more or less by chance into the only community of any size in Western Europe where political consciousness and disbelief in capitalism were more normal than their opposites. Up here in Aragon one was among tens of thousands of people, mainly though not entirely of working-class origin, all living at the same level and mingling on terms of equality. In theory it was perfect equality, and even in practice it was not far from it. There is a sense in which it would be true to say that one was experiencing a foretaste of Socialism, by which I mean that the prevailing mental atmosphere was that of Socialism. Many of the normal motives of civilized life - snobbishness, money-grubbing, fear of the boss, etc. - had simply ceased to exist. The ordinary class-division of society had disappeared to an extent that is almost unthinkable in the money-tainted air of England; there was no one there except the peasants and ourselves, and no one owned anyone else as his master. Of course such a state of affairs could not last. It was simply a temporary and local phase in an enormous game that is being played over the whole surface of the earth. But it lasted long enough to have its effect upon anyone who experienced it. However much one cursed at the time, one realized afterwards that one had been in contact with something strange and valuable. One had been in a community where hope was more normal than apathy or cynicism, where the word ‘comrade’ stood for comradeship and not, as in most countries, for humbug. One had breathed the air of equality. I am well aware that it is now the fashion to deny that Socialism has anything to do with equality. In every country in the world a huge tribe of party-hacks and sleek little professors are busy ‘proving’ that Socialism means no more than a planned state-capitalism with the grab-motive left intact. But fortunately there also exists a vision of Socialism quite different from this. - George Orwell, Homage to Catalonia Thanks for your efforts in the war George! (;

All to true. Everyone should hear this.

Thank you professor, great presentation.

100% spot on Grafknar !!

Every Western nation has a dependence on immigration

Forget fancy words and titles. We either live on the right side of truth and justice or we don’t. We either have ethics, morals and integrity or we don’t. We live inside Love and Respect or we don’t. It’s as simple as that! 🤔
