VOTE LEAVE

The public are incapable of making an informed opinion because they are not informed. To this end, the banning of right-wing views and promotion of left-wing views is necessary to inform the public. Western society is so bad that those who seek to destroy it should be actively promoted even if they are in a minority, and the majority support for existing society should be ignored. The majority, who are responsible for the oppression of minorities, should have their civil rights withdrawn.

Normally, one might expect the government to protect the interests and views of the majority; Marcuse, however, seeks to destroy them. He partly justifies this by his sneer at the 'systematic moronization' of society, thus rendering the views held by the majority of ordinary people as not worthy of respect. His language (e.g. his references to 'class structure', 'institutionalized inequality', and 'legalized violence or suppression') is that of a communist.

His remark comparing tolerance to the Right as well as to the Left, along with 'to movements of aggression as well as to movements of peace, to the party of hate as well as to that of humanity' equates the Right with being aggressive and hateful, as opposed to the peaceful humanity of the Left. This absolutist stance, typical for communists, ignores the fact that communism was responsible for the deaths of more than 100million in the 20th century. The Right actually fought against Nazism and the aggression of Japan. The communists actually backed Russia, which had made a pact with Hitler; it was the German invasion of Russia that forced the communists into open opposition to Hitler in WWII. It is Marcuse who displays hatred, not the Right.

… By comparison, however, minorities, who are deemed to be free from false consciousness, are deemed to be oppressed and alienated. Marcuse regards the black population as being a likely source for rebellion. That is to say, he aims to supplement class war politics with race war politics.

There is nothing contentious in highlighting the commitment to race war politics. Marcuse, as well as other members of the Frankfurt School, sets this out in simple language.

On Sunday, in a telephone conference, Will Straw, the Stronger In's campaign director said:

     'We need to recognise that people have been pulled up short by Jo Cox's death and it is now time to make a very positive case for why we want to be in the European Union … to call out the other side for what they have done to stir division and resentment in the UK.

     That is something we must all do … This is what we think is the closing argument of the campaign, reflecting all the arguments that we have been setting out for many months but also the new context that we're in.

     What we want to say is people should vote Remain on Thursday for more jobs, lower prices, workers' rights, stronger public services and a decent tolerant United Kingdom.'

Stephen Kinnock, a Labour MP and son of the former Labour leader Neil Kinnock, wrote in The Guardian:

     'We must unite and act to defeat the forces of division, intolerance, populism, nationalism and cynicism that have been bubbling under for years, and that have come to the fore in recent weeks.

     This will be a long and difficult journey, but we owe it to Jo to make it. And it's a journey that starts on Thursday.'

Baroness Warsi claimed to have left the Brexit campaign to join the Remain side, complaining: ‘Are we prepared to tell lies, to spread hate and xenophobia just to win a campaign?’ (Few in the Brexit campaign were even aware that she had purported to be on their side.)

In the forefront of this charge to link the Brexit campaign with the evil act of a mental defective was none other than Hillary Clinton who wrote on Twitter on Friday (italics the English Rights Campaign own emphasis): 'It is cruel and terrible that her life was cut short by a violent act of political intolerance'. David Cameron on Friday said: 'Where we see hatred, where we find division, where we see intolerance we must drive it out of our politics and out of our public life and out of our communities'. Also on Friday, the ardent Leftie, Polly Toynbee, wrote in The Guardian: 'There are many decent people involved in the campaign to secure Britain's withdrawal from the EU, many who respect the referendum as the exercise in democracy that it is. But there are others whose recklessness has been open and shocking. I believe they bear responsibility, not for the attack itself, but for the current mood: for the inflammatory language, for the finger-jabbing, the dog-whistling and the overt racism'. There are a number of others, in particular George Osborne (needless to say), who have made similar comments. Focus has centred on a Leave EU/UKIP 'Breaking Point' poster highlighting the EU's failure to manage the immigration crisis, which has been denounced as racist (needless to say). Nigel Farage, the UKIP leader, yesterday said:

     'What we are seeing here is the Prime Minister and Remain campaign trying to conflate the actions of one crazed individual with the motives of half of Britain who think we should get back control of our borders and do it sensibly'.

The killer is someone who has a long history of mental health issues and apparently was in a state of crisis the night before he committed his atrocity. In addition, he had obsessive compulsive disorder and aggressively cleaned himself with Brillo pads. He had acquired a shotgun (of some description) some time previously; in 1999 the killer had bought a manual from a US far-right website that had instructions on how to build a 'pipe pistol'. Those who knew him said that he never discussed politics and did not know what is political views were. The police are treating the murder as an act of terrorism.

After the last few months of the Remain campaign lies, scaremongering, name-calling, phoney allegations, falsified dishonest economic forecasts and reports, the idea that Brexiters have to be moralized at by the Remain side, the Ponzi Class and the politically correct is beyond the pale.

The English Rights Campaign will repeat the point made in the earlier item about the killings in Orlando (see the English Rights Campaign item dated the 15^th June 2016): Political correctness does not legislate tolerance. It is the organization of hatred. The funding of organized crime and terrorist people smugglers, the deaths of immigrants trying to invade the West, the paedophilia, and the killing of Jews and homosexuals are not collateral damage. They are the true face of political correctness. The fight between patriotism and political correctness is the fight between good and evil. It is as clear cut as that.
