"The challenge from transnational progressivism to traditional American concepts of citizenship, patriotism, assimilation, and the meaning of democracy itself is fundamental. If our system is based not on individual rights (as defined by the U.S. Constitution) but on group consciousness (as defined by international law); not on equality of citizenship but on group preferences for non- citizens (including illegal immigrants) and for certain categories of citizens; not on majority rule within constitutional limits but on power-sharing by different ethnic, racial, gender, and linguistic groups; not on constitutional law, but on transnational law; not on immigrants becoming Americans, but on migrants linked between transnational communities; then the regime will cease to be "constitutional," "liberal," "democratic," and "American," in the understood sense of those terms, but will become in reality a new hybrid system that is "post- constitutional," "post-liberal," "post-democratic," and "post-American.""

    Evil is one man looking upon another man as an object as opposed to looking at him as a fellow member of the same species. To succeed in controlling the life and actions of the other man, The Evil one must first de-humanize the other man by objectifying him. Hence the Nazis stamped or tattooed numbers on the forearms of Jews thereby reducing them, in their minds, to cattle which could then be herded, corralled, and disposed of at the whims of the Evil one(s).

    Today around the earth the dominant form of control is classification. Karl Marx's classes that is. The primary tactic for inserting the concept of
    self identification as a member of a class into the
    minds of children begins in grade school. There, in this controlled environment, young pliable minds have any buds of individuality snipped by their teachers. Then the ideas of John Dewey are taught "...I believe that the only true education comes through the stimulation of the child's powers by the demands of the social situations in which he finds himself. Through these demands he is stimulated to act as a member of a unity, to emerge from his original narrowness of action and feeling and to conceive of himself from the standpoint of the welfare of the group to which he belongs..." from My Pedigogic Creed.

    The main problem for Individual Rights advocates is that the Evil ones are organized, well funded, and determined to reach their goal of one planet, one government - Socialist as soon as possible. Individual Rights advocates have none of those things. We do not have a tactician like Saul Alinsky nor an organizer like Barack Obama to implement Ayn Rand's Objectivism. Ergo we are losing the battle.
