The Struggle Sessions Are Here, And They’re Not Going Away
June 4, 2020
John Daniel Davidson



Amid the scenes circulating on social media this week of protesters and rioters and burned out storefronts and police barricades, two of them stand out as harbingers of what all of this means for the future of mainstream American society.

The first was a video clip of a small group of white people kneeling down before a group of black people. A white man at the head of the kneeling group was praying, his voice shaking with emotion: “Father, we ask for forgiveness from our black brothers and sisters for years and years of racism, of systematic racism.”

The second was a clip of a large gathering in the affluent DC suburb of Bethesda, Maryland. Nearly a thousand protesters, most of them white, their hands raised as if in prayer, engaged in a kind of collective woke sermon, repeating after a man on a microphone: “I will use my voice in the most uplifting way possible, and do everything in my power to educate my community. I will love my black neighbors the same as my white ones…”

Protesters in Bethesda attend a woke sermon to cry about their white guilt. Note that not a single one of them is social distancing. Two weeks ago, the media would've called them terrorists. pic.twitter.com/rOJCsmPs9v

More than the rampant looting and the street battles, more than the clashes between police and protesters, these scenes of white people genuflecting in mass public affirmations of their own guilt is the key to understanding where all this is headed.

A little more:
"The model at work here is the Chinese Cultural Revolution, with its mass “struggle sessions” in which anyone deemed insufficiently sympathetic to the proletariat, or thought to have an excessively bourgeois lifestyle, was subjected to public humiliations, paraded through the streets, assaulted, denounced, and put on display as objects of scorn. Often these struggle sessions ended in false confessions and pleas for mercy."

This is DIRECTLY taken from the Marxist playbook, everywhere that communism took hold.

Truth. The only difference is race and that we get to watch it unfold before our eyes on the TV, while we do nothing to stop it.

The left’s multi-decade project to teach everyone that America is irredeemably racist has led to the emergence of a new regime in American life.

That girl in black in the foreground is a perfect metaphor: eyes closed, hands up. If we can’t get these ‘kids’ to open their eyes and see and understand, process the evidence all around them, then it will be a long road back to normalcy for us all.
