British academic communists suffer from ideology, which is a brain virus. It takes every natural, logical and honest thought and turns it into a version of itself. So everything becomes political. A person is either good (communist) or bad (capitalist), poor and trodden-upon (good), white and privileged (bad) and so on. American communists, however, live in an intellectual and informational vacuum. So they make it up as they go, creating the most marvelous conspiracy theories as they go along.
– An insightful observation by a friend of Gabriel Syme…
How true is not that? Everything is not political. The day ideology/politics (good) becomes more important than humans (bad), then it’s time to fight back and make ideology/politics (bad) serving man (good), rather than vice versa.
