 The Origins of Modern Leftism - Preface   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Leftism as described and defined in the following pages is first and foremost a theory : a theory of present-day society, of the society of the future and of the transition from one to the other.
The curiosity which modern leftism may excite does not arise simply from the fact that it aims to replace orthodox Marxism as the guiding theory of the revolutionary movement.
Leftism, therefore, is a way of thinking, of reacting in the face of the same phenomena, of revolting against all attempts at regimentation.

 LEFTIST MOTIVATIONS   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
At its deepest level, Leftism appears to be psychopathic -- with the psychopathic disregard for all norms, morals, standards and ethics in the ruthless quest for personal praise and satisfaction.
Whatever else the Leftist may be, the bedrock of Leftism is a strong dislike or even a hatred of the way the world is. They have a strong desire or even a need for political change, often extreme change.
Leftism is however a matter of degree and we need to remember that there are extreme Rightists who would regard more moderate conservatives as Leftists.

 Leftfield: Leftism ---Ink Blot Magazine
The slow gestation period of Leftism was filled by Hard Hands' championing of the emerging junglist scene and taster singles like "Song of Life" and "Open Up," which raised expectations to a simmer.
Leftism is the first world map of dance, charting worldbeat, jungle, techno, hip-hop and a steel drum full of dub across an ever-fragmenting clubland.
Leftism distilled the revolutionary sounds of the early '90s into timeless songs, and even as the second Leftfield album approaches, the debut sounds fresher than 1999's flavor-of-the-month junglists and big beaters.

 The Psychology of Modern Leftism - Stormfront White Nationalist Community   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
One of the most widespread manifestations of the craziness of our world is leftism, so a discussion of the psychology of leftism can serve as an introduction to the discussion of the problems of modern society in general.
Even so, our conception of leftism will remain a good deal less clear than we would wish, but there doesn't seem to be any remedy for this.

Feelings of inferiority are characteristic of modern leftism as a whole, while oversocialization is characteristic only of a certain segment of modern leftism; but this segment is highly influential.

 PSYCHOLOGY OF LEFTISM   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
So Leftism could be seen as a Godless religion -- something that meets the religious needs of those who for various reasons are dissatisfied either with other religions or with supernatural ideas in general.
The identification of Leftism as a religion has often been made and the ability to believe in things that sound good but have very little supportive evidence would certainly seem to constitute a common core between Leftism and other religions.
Leftism, on the other hand, IS intrinsically authoritarian and power-loving and will always therefore tend in the direction of government domination.

 New Infoceptor Forums -> In Defence of Leftism
Thus our current working model of Leftism as differentiated from Rightism, is that of a progressive, liberal, or radical, depending upon the subject at hand (the progressive being leftist on Social Issues, the Liberal in Political Issues, and the Radical in Economics).
Since the subject matter is that of socialism, we shall deal with leftism in its further extrema, but still towards the centre of the leftist arena.

 Unabomber Manifesto, section 9 of 9 by Jorn
The anarchist [*] too seeks power, but he seeks it on an individual or small-group basis; he wants individuals and small groups to be able to control the circumstances of their own lives.
We have portrayed leftism in its modern form as a phenomenon peculiar to our time and as a symptom of the disruption of the power process.
Identification with victims by people not themselves victims can be seen to some extent in 19th century leftism and early Christianity but as far as we can make out, symptoms of low self-esteem, etc., were not nearly so evident in these movements, or in any other movements, as they are in modern leftism.

 Iranian Leftism is a Reactionary Force
When I write Leftism is a reactionary ideology in our times, some people tell me that so and so leftist is not a "traditional" leftist and is a "progressive" leftist.
Islamism and leftism are totally reactionary and not just their traditionalists being reactionary.
Hasn't failure after failure of communism been enough for these people to see that their whole ideology is a backward thinking, like the ideology of the Islamists, that has been hurting Iran and Iranians, the thinking which was responsible for their support of Khomeini in 1979 and hostage-taking in its aftermath.

 Useful Fools: Leftism, Libertarianism and IQ
Leftism, Libertarianism and IQ In Dissecting Leftism, Dr. John Ray attacks the claim that the Leftism of college professors is the outcome of their high intelligence.
There is another explanation for the initial leftism of many academics in the US, although it doesn't explain the universality of the trend across the free world: many leftist professors became academics to legally avoid service in the Vietnam War, and of course their leftism provided a rationalization for their unwillingness to serve.
Also, in a world where privilege and economic success is becoming more and more significantly determined by one's IQ (and to a significant degree, the IQ of one's parents), a person with high intelligence is less likely to have experienced the serious vicissitudes of life, which might lead to less utopian leanings.

Kuehnelt-Leddihin is one of the most brilliant historians of the 20th Century, and even though you may have trouble finding a copy of this book (or like me, pay $85 for it because you lost that copy you bought for $25), it's worth the effort to get one of your own.

 flag.blackened.net :: View topic - Anarchy after Leftism
Therefore, to imply that anarchism is beyond or outside "leftism" leads to a danger where anarchists might think, by being anarchists, that they *themselves* are not only outside of "leftism" but more evolved and more elightened than the left as a whole -- a la Marxist revolutionary vanguards.
Leftism can also be called socialism, which takes numerous forms; from the left-liberal wing of the Democratic Party; through marxist and non-marxist social democracy; up to leninism; and beyond, into the realm of libertarian marxism.
It is not that anarchists should abandon anti-capitalism; rather, anarchists should abandon their commitment to a political tendency that is no longer—if it ever was—relevant to furthering authentic human liberation.

It's been four years since Leftfield made the leap from the 12-inch import bin to the CD racks at your local Best Buy with their full-length debut, "Leftism." Hailed by many in the duo's native England as the best dance album ever, it can't help but suffer in the glare of its own legend.
But from the electronic skank of opener "Release the Pressure" to the rippling pulse that closes the album with a sense that the beat goes on, "Leftism" is a rewarding listen through and through.

You may not know it yet but when you listen to this album for the first time ever you are likely to have heard at least 3-4 of these songs before for most of these are national anthems when it comes to the dance and electronic field.
One of the finest electronica albums of the '90's, Leftfield's Leftism combines techno, big beat, and ambience along with several guest vocalists including of all people, the Sex Pistols' John "Rotten" Lydon.
Their second album, Rhythm and Stealth, is also full of shimmeringly beautiful cuts - though without the unifying "comet ride" impulse of this album and the easy acceptance that often greets the familiar - in the case of Leftism, it's comfortable place in the dance bin.

 Homo Sapiens Americanus
One reason that economic leftism is more or less dead in America is because the elite have managed to associate Economic Leftism with Identity Politics in the minds of the white middle class.
If such activists had previously only focused on economic leftism and not identity politics, they would not have gotten the money.They give money to those activists/writers who tie identity politics (of the "white people are racists" variety) to economic leftism.
If you want to get the white working class back into economics leftism, try acknowledging that there is a caste system, that it was instituted by the elite, and that America was built on the backs of white slaves and fl slaves, who slaved for the upper class.
