WUHAN/COVID-19 IS THE EXCUSE FOR THE WAR ON AMERICAS KULAKS
To the inattentive, it seems curious that so many Democrat and some Republican states leadership have decimated their own states economies and employment numbers for ineffective control of a pandemic that is far less lethal than any other pandemic, none of which instigated such a draconian economic shutdown. However, to those knowledgeable about the history of Communism, the real motives are obvious. It was never about the virus. That was merely the excuse to exterminate American societies perfect analog to Russia’s “Kulaks”.
Before the Communist takeover of Russia in 1917, the Kulaks were wealthy or prosperous peasants, who owned a relatively large farm and several head of cattle and horses. They were the Russian class who were financially able to employ hired labor or lease some of their land. The term Kulak was very subjective, and often merely a label for anyone who had more property than “normal”. Before the Russian Revolution of 1917, the Kulaks were major figures in the various peasant villages. They often lent money, provided mortgages, and played central roles in the villages’ social and administrative affairs. They were the agrarian equivalent of the aspirational upper middle-class.
Since Russia was an agrarian society, the Kulaks were a perfect analog to todays small, independent, local, business owners, in an industrialized society. When reading the history, one can insert the words “small business owner” as a replacement for the word “Kulak”.
The communist Soviet government considered the Kulaks to be capitalists and, therefore, the most common, numerous, enemies of socialism.
Although the Democrats since the 1990s have talked about protecting workers, the nuclear family, and small business owners, their policies, in application, always seem to undermine and degrade those institutions. In 2020, even the pretense seems to have been discarded.
In 1927 the Soviet government began increasing the Kulaks’ taxes and restricting their right to lease land; in 1929 it began a drive for rapid collectivization of agriculture. The Kulaks strenuously opposed the efforts to force the peasants to give up their small, privately owned, farms, which were intended to force them to join the large cooperative agricultural establishments called “collectives”. At the end of 1929 a campaign to “liquidate the Kulaks as a class” (“dekulakization”) was launched by the government. By 1934, when approximately 75 percent of the farms in the Soviet Union had been collectivized, most Kulaks—as well as millions of other peasants who had opposed collectivization—had been deported to remote regions of the Soviet Union, or arrested, and their land and property confiscated. Under dekulakization, government officials seized farms and killed some resisters. while deporting others to labor camps which drove many Kulaks to migrate to the cities following the loss of their property to the collective. This increase in urbanization was a goal of the Communists.
According to Marxist–Leninist political theories of the early 20th century, the Kulaks were class enemies of the “poorer” peasants. Vladimir Lenin himself described them as “bloodsuckers, vampires, plunderers of the people and profiteers, who fatten on famine,” as he declared the revolution against them, to liberate “poor” peasants, farm laborers, and proletariat (the much smaller class of urban and industrial workers).
In 2020, we see this played out again in Democrat controlled areas where the Black Lives Matter and Antifa Marxist vanguard, burn and loot small local businesses in their districts.
Again the analogy is perfect. You see Democrats in congress call for “re-education” [camps] for Trump supporters, and Democrat polices targeting rural lifestyles, while pushing for greater urbanization and greater urban density by despising and pushing policies to discourage suburbs.
In reality, the Communists sought to simply explain away, a means to expropriate the wealth of the middle class, into the pockets of government, and thus into the politicians control.
The measures put in place to address Wuhan/Covid19, seem to do very little to stop the spread of that disease, but they have been highly effective in wiping out small local businesses, restaurants, bars, and the the local small business owner. These small business owners are a direct analog, in American society, to the role of the Kulaks in Russias agrarian society. What intelligent person can fail to note the direct connection between the results of the Covid restrictions, and their clear intent, in light of how the stated intent yields such negligible impact on its stated goal? One must be particularly stupid to fail to see the connection, given the well known historical precedent.
Remember, the leadership of Black Lives Matter Inc. openly call themselves “trained Marxists”, and the global Antifa movement has been Marxist ever since it’s inception in the 1930‘s. If you want to know what is coming from this Marxist cabal that has taken over the American Democrat Party, note Lenin’s directive, because that is what is intended for America’s small business owners. Lenin sent a directive about the Kulaks;
“Hang (hang without fail, so the people see) no fewer than one hundred known kulaks, rich men, bloodsuckers.… Do it in such a way that for hundreds of [miles] around the people will see, tremble, know, shout: they are strangling and will strangle to death the bloodsucker kulaks.”Stalin said, “Now we have the opportunity to carry out a resolute offensive against the kulaks, break their resistance, eliminate them as a class and replace their production with the production of kolkhozes and sovkhozes”.
While small, independent businesses have been wiped out under the nonsensical Covid restrictions, their valued customers have been forced over to doing business with Amazon, Walmart, Target, and corporate restaurants owned by Darden, Yum! Brands, Inc., Restaurant Brands International Inc., Bloomin Brands Inc. and others. These large corporations work hand in glove with the political elites.
Ayn Rand once wrote that when seemingly intelligent and successful people propose a course of action that makes no sense, then they have a different objective than the one publicly stated.
Here, Democrat and some Republican elites have invoked unprecedented, nonsensical, policies that seem to undermine their own states economic and employment circumstances, for no visible beneficial effect. Their goal has nothing to do with Wuhan/Covid19.
They are waging war on the American Kulaks.
