The purpose of this video is to draw attention to a dangerous undercurrent of racism, anti-semitism and outright fascism which has been growing within our ranks in recent years. We’re going to point to where this could end up if we allow it to continue, and to we’re going to explain how to confront it effectively
During periods of severe economic hardship, war, and social instability people have the tendency to look for someone to blame. Historically, the groups that are singled out as scapegoats are not chosen based on facts and evidence, they are chosen according to the prejudices and hatreds of that era. Race, religion, ethnic background and immigrant status are obvious and convenient starting points, but as these sentiments gather political power the list of enemies expands to include anyone and everyone who disagrees on any topic of significance, and the punishment for being different rapidly moves from insults to violence. Genocides and ethnic cleansings are expressions of this dark current.
It would be a grave error to assume that humans have evolved out of this pattern or that the conditions which give rise to such tendencies will never be in play again. The reality of the matter is that the global economic downturn we’re experiencing right now is already providing a breeding ground for fascist, racists and outright neo-nazi groups, and the internet has given them a vector to spread their ideologies.
Unfortunately many of these types have infiltrated libertarian, conservative, and conspiracy oriented circles. All you have to do to verify this is to visit the comment section of virtually any article or video which talks about the banking and monetary system or government coverups and corruption. Even more unfortunate is the fact that there are certain media figures, and we won’t mention names here, which are taking advantage of those racist and xenophobic sentiments and helping them grow.
