Title: The American Left’s Emerging Social Class Consciousness of Envy In Collusion With the Existing American Ruling Class Consciousness of Greed.
Introduction.
Our podcast today is titled The American Left’s Emerging Social Class Consciousness of Envy In Collusion With the Existing American Ruling Class Consciousness of Greed. This is the Citizens Liberty Party News Network podcast for October 19, 2020.
Our podcast topic begins in the aftermath of the 2016 election with the entry of the term “resistance” by Democrats into the American political lexicon of social justice.
Resistance is a new term in American political discourse, and our podcast explores how the idea of the left’s resistance to the election of Donald Trump explains a new class consciousness emerging among Democrat voters.
We contrast the left’s resistance to Trump with Angelo Codevilla’s insight that the resistance could also mean the resistance of Trump voter’s to the power of the American ruling class. (Codevilla Angelo, Revolution 2020.The American Mind, September 23, 2020. https://bit.ly/3jvV83k).
Codevilla creates a hypothetical dynamic in class consciousness between BLM Democrats and middle class Trump voters, using the concept of resistance.
Codevilla states,
“The party of the ruling class—that this party, having lost the 2016 elections, would refuse to accept popular rejection and launch a full-court “Resistance” against the voters who had rejected them. But that is what happened. In fact, the election’s outcome had resulted from the general population’s resistance to the ruling class further solidifying its oligarchy. Hence the self-described “Resistance” was but a continuation of its longstanding oligarchic revolution.”
In an earlier article, we explained that the American ruling class, which we call crony corporate capitalist globalism, has a well defined and established class consciousness of greed. (Vass, Laurie Thomas, The Unintended Consequence of the BLM Marxist Allegation of “White Supremacy.” CLP News Network. September 28, 2020 https://bit.ly/3lgOmip).
We explain that the left is in the early stages of developing a class consciousness of envy.
In contrast to the left’s emerging class consciousness, we argue that the American middle class has not yet begun to develop a class consciousness.
The dimly perceived resistance to the ruling class of Trump voters that Codevilla sees is a latent middle class consciousness that has the potential to develop.
We explain that the left’s emerging class consciousness is facilitated by its alliance with crony corporate capitalism. (Vass, Laurie Thomas, BLM Marxism and the Emerging Alliance With Global Corporate Crony Capitalism. CLP News Network. July 26, 2020).
We predict that the collusion between BLM Democrats and the ruling class will cause the American middle class to develop a class consciousness consistent with the predictions of Nash equilibrium theory.
We place the start of left’s emerging class consciousness of envy around 1985, with a new development in the globalist corporate behavior that shifted the traditional allegiance of large corporations from national sovereignty, to an allegiance of a one-world global government.
Applying Nash equilibrium theory, the shift in tactics by the crony capitalist class caused a change in the status quo arrangement of power, which caused the left to change its behavior.
Prior to 1985, the essence of the two party arrangement between Democrats and Republicans was special financial group interest negotiations over the distributing the spoils of plunder.
All of the political party special interest elites, what Codevilla calls the ruling class, shared a common cultural value that the end goal of the American political system was to grow the economic pie bigger in order to allow them to plunder the system by distributing the spoils to their voters, after an election.
