#2  Someone is teaching them that the 'new socialism', married to Systems Theory, AI, and internet tech will be different.

That the old socialism was imperfect, it awaited a liberal distribution of empowering technology, self-defeating laws arranged by left interest groups, and rich facilitators ensnared by promises of grandeur in history. That this time, it's the perfect 'ism' to bring in the march of god on earth.

A lot of this teaching is being done in universities, by academics trained by other academics paid and propped up by shady foundations in Europe. The lowest rung proselytes actually believe the shit they teach and don't even need to be bribed. For them an invitation to a cocktail-soiree or the chance to be patted on the back by one of their academic deities is enough.

We've had to analyze a lot of their private communications and inner circle literature, you see.

#1  Someone should take these kids on a tour of Soviet-era factories in Norilsk or Magnitogorsk, with a detour to visit the gulags.
