The Movement

This is a sequel and companion to "Rage or Reason." The general goal has been to assess the theoretical soundness of the intolerant political and economic theories of the leftist ideologies, analyze them for logical fallacies or contradictions, and place them in their historical contexts when feasible.

The book first addresses the concept of reality and how the Left defines it, allowing them to claim, for example, that a man can be a woman, and come to other illogical and absurd conclusions. It also investigates the illogical convolutions of leftist thought to make what does not work appear to work. The Left within the Democratic Party uses words as smoke and mirrors, in the same fashion that they hide Joe Biden intellectual decline before it became obvious, and that they describe eloquence-deprived Kamala Harris as a new mix of Confucius, Aristotle and Cicero. Various political and economic topics dear to the Left are then explored.

The author presents analyses in a clear, concise, but easy-to-understand manner to give the reader arguments or methods of reasoning that have been ignored or overlooked by the leftist theoreticians. The conclusions, when feasible, have been derived from secular first principles, making them difficult to refute, thereby strengthening the analysis.

The socialist Left within the Democratic Party has brought the democrats to support policies that are unsettlingly similar to the policies of the (socialist) Nazi Party of Germany in the 1930s: cancel culture, race hate, forbidding guns, media biased massive propaganda, the complicity of big business, a double standard of justice, the indoctrination of children, etc.

Behind the sweet words spoken at the Democratic Convention, the realities of the democrats' policies are frightening: They plan to change the Supreme Court and pack it, to essentially make it a puppet of the Executive Branch, the same situation that exists in Venezuela under the Maduro dictatorial regime. They also plan other changes that would bring forth an authoritarian socialist government as is seen in countries such as Venezuela, Cuba, North Korea, and others.

While they claim that the republicans want a dictator, it is themselves who are happily planting the seeds of authoritarianism.

Against the Left's socialism, collectivism and globalism, the populist philosophy argues for a free market economy, individualism and "localism". It argues that reality is not the result of one's feelings and that common sense is much more sensible and useful that the convoluted leftist non-logical mode of thinking. It also argues that race blindness, the use of merit, and the use of a single standard of justice for all is the only way forward. Real knowledge and critical thinking must be at the heart of education, rather than social indoctrination. In short, the populist philosophy is a no-nonsense approach to the world and is evidence-based rather than the leftist socialist pie-in-the sky.

It is hoped that this short work will give the reader an idea of what a "populist philosophy" might be like and provide the tools to debate and win arguments over the intolerant Left which exists within the Democratic Party. If this goal is achieved, then this work will have been successful.
