The Sovietization of American Life

Behind all our disasters there looms an ideology, a creed that ignores cause and effect in the real world—without a shred of concern for the damage done to those outside the nomenklatura.

That about describes the situation. I'm not one for red-baiting - it usually draws my immediate ire, as it is almost always gay in a bad way. It's mostly for people with very small minds and with very reactive knees. But I strive to keep my world view descriptive as opposed to prescriptive, and the author hits the nail on the head. In this particuliar case, "Sovietization" is a precise fit to events on the ground. Ideology over reality - as in, "That woman's penis bends to the left."

The only thing I found disagreeble was his tony in-lumping of national socialism in the cadre of ideologies that were decidedly anti-meritocratic. That nazi germny was on balance a meritocracy is established by its unthinkably, inexplicably powerful results. It was a state the size of Oregon with scant resources and a population simliar to that of England or France, and it rose as a phoenix under national socialism from abject, externally-imposed povery to hold the world at bay for six years. Based on empirical evidence, if anything was anti-meritocraatic, it was the Weimar government which the Nazis supplanted.
