Transnational Progressivism

[Ederico]

I happened to encounter a recent discussion regarding Transnational Progressivism, and even though I understand it a bit, I would like a more centralised or specific location to discuss it. What do you people know about it? I had a link somewhere but I lost it.

Here are the major points regarding Transnational Progressivism taken from http://www.unc.edu/depts/diplomat/ar...eological.html

Examine each point, these are points that lead to the demise of our Race and a threat to our Societies and Cultures. Transnational Progressivism is the worldview of the enemy, of traitors and nothing else.

TRANSNATIONAL PROGRESSIVISM
The key concepts of transnational progressivism could be described as follows:

The ascribed group over the individual citizen. The key political unit is not the individual citizen, who forms voluntary associations and works with fellow citizens regardless of race, sex, or national origin, but the ascriptive group (racial, ethnic, or gender) into which one is born.

A dichotomy of groups: Oppressor vs. victim groups, with immigrant groups designated as victims. Transnational ideologists have incorporated the essentially Hegelian Marxist "privileged vs. marginalized" dichotomy.

Group proportionalism as the goal of "fairness." Transnational progressivism assumes that "victim" groups should be represented in all professions roughly proportionate to their percentage of the population. If not, there is a problem of "underrepresentation."

The values of all dominant institutions to be changed to reflect the perspectives of the victim groups. Transnational progressives insist that it is not enough to have proportional representation of minorities in major institutions if these institutions continue to reflect the worldview of the "dominant" culture. Instead, the distinct worldviews of ethnic, gender, and linguistic minorities must be represented within these institutions.

The "demographic imperative." The demographic imperative tells us that major demographic changes are occurring in the U. S. as millions of new immigrants from non-Western cultures enter American life. The traditional paradigm based on the assimilation of immigrants into an existing American civic culture is obsolete and must be changed to a framework that promotes "diversity," defined as group proportionalism.

The redefinition of democracy and "democratic ideals." Transnational progressives have been altering the definition of "democracy" from that of a system of majority rule among equal citizens to one of power sharing among ethnic groups composed of both citizens and non-citizens. James Banks, one of American education's leading textbook writers, noted in 1994 that "to create an authentic democratic Unum with moral authority and perceived legitimacy, the pluribus (diverse peoples) must negotiate and share power." Hence, American democracy is not authentic; real democracy will come when the different "peoples" that live within America "share power" as groups.

Deconstruction of national narratives and national symbols of democratic nation-states in the West. In October 2000, a UK government report denounced the concept of "Britishness" and declared that British history needed to be "revised, rethought, or jettisoned." In the U.S., the proposed "National History Standards," recommended altering the traditional historical narrative. Instead of emphasizing the story of European settlers, American civilization would be redefined as a multicultural "convergence" of three civilizations—Amerindian, West African, and European. In Israel, a "post-Zionist" intelligentsia has proposed that Israel consider itself multicultural and deconstruct its identity as a Jewish state. Even Israeli foreign minister Shimon Peres sounded the post-Zionist trumpet in his 1993 book , in which he deemphasized "sovereignty" and called for regional "elected central bodies," a type of Middle Eastern EU.

Promotion of the concept of postnational citizenship. In an important academic paper, Rutgers Law Professor Linda Bosniak asks hopefully "Can advocates of postnational citizenship ultimately succeed in decoupling the concept of citizenship from the nation-state in prevailing political thought?"

The idea of transnationalism as a major conceptual tool.Transnationalism is the next stage of multicultural ideology. Like multiculturalism, transnationalism is a concept that provides elites with both an empirical tool (a plausible analysis of what is) and an ideological framework (a vision of what should be). Transnational advocates argue that globalization requires some form of "global governance" because they believe that the nation-state and the idea of national citizenship are ill suited to deal with the global problems of the future.

Witness the treachery in the above points.

Transnational Progressivism in a nutshell - loot the white and Japanese first world to beef up the third.

[OnionPeeler]

John Fonte did not say everything he wanted to say. In order to be published, he adopted much of the language of 'Transnational Progressivism' from its proponents. He also skirted the 'role' in which white European ethnicities are cast.

Without going into great detail, I prefer the terms Diffuse Marxism or Racial Marxism for what Fonte partially describes. The term "Marxism" is selected here not because a rigid ideology of linear descent is being followed, but because the aggregate character of the diffuse movements closely matches Marxist ideals, revolutionary rhetoric and Communist methods.

A new bourgeois is selected for vilification. Its abhorant history must be rewritten. If it can not (yet) be destroyed it must be taxed to fulfill material leveling. If it occupies an area almost exclusively, proletarians must be brought in across open borders. Special (hate) laws are constructed to protect the proletarian caste. Quotas, et al, disperse, dilute bourgeois power.

The target, again and again, is white and European. The new bourgeois. The venom and the effects are so highly concentrated on this one group that the only reasonable conclusion is that white/European is non grata and slated for extermination Romanov-style.

Before any one labels this alarmist, consider the gradient of fulfillment represented by Zimbabwe, South Africa, SW US. If I'm wrong, the following will not happen in SA:

Tax burden on 'rich' (read whites) will increase.
Black politicians will make their career blaming whites.
Power will be consolidated by marginalizing (black) parties which are liberal (not sufficiently anti-white)
"Landless peasants" will demand (white) farmlands.

This is historicism which I usually attack....but some patterns have low level origins and can be considered broadly to repeat. (The Marxism is OURS. Others simply act in their own interests.)

Re: Anarch. The summary is pretty close but...
TP or Racial Marxism should be considered a white/Western phenomena. Others groups simply tap it for their own benefit. It is non-existent in Chinese thought and the '1st world' Japanese have not yet legislated their own cultural death by opening their ports to Cambodians, etc.


"To revenge the misdeeds of the ruling class, there existed in the middle ages, in Germany, a secret tribunal, called the "Vehmgericht." If a red cross was seen marked on a house, people knew that its owner was doomed by the "Vehm." All the houses of Europe are now marked with the mysterious red cross.

History is the judge — its executioner, the proletarian. "

What do you imply by the term Diffuse Marxism?
