NDP elects new leader who denies the lived experience of a Somali refugee because she is conservative

So, does this mean they’re finally admitting that Shakespeare (a) WAS real and (b) WASN’T a black lesbian?
It’s so hard to keep up with the fractured thinking of leftists.

Leftist thinking is not fractured. It just isn’t the same SYSTEM of thought as is Western reasoning a la Socrates, Aristotle etc.

The leftist system of thought is dialectics. This is fundamentally different in mode of thought from Western thinking as Islam is, as an ethical system from Western Judeo-Christian values.  In Islam, murdering a non-Muslim to advance the power and authority of Islam as a means of control is the highest of all virtues. Equally true of murdering someone who is a threat to the supremacy and authority of Islam. It is the ONLY Guaranteed path to heaven (Jenna) listed in the Islamic canon. Which is why being a body guard for the freedom minded has become a growth industry.

I should stress at this point that another concept we are all familiar with needs to be introduced here as an explainer.

The idea of “useful idiot”, refers to the people operating for the leftist/communist agenda. People who actually believe the surface level excuse/explanation for why these changes in law and culture are necessary, rather than understanding, as the sophisticates do, that the real purpose if the total deconstruction of absolutely everything that defines Western Civilization, and to replace it with a repressive tyranny. Tyrannies as we see described in a fairly long list of dystopian future writings. Each one of which generally manages to encapsulate at least one of the components of this gathering dystopia and reformatting of reality itself for the purpose of tyranny.

In the instance of Shakespeare, there is lots of discussion that he wasn’t the fellow who wrote the plays, and it was some other Englishman. The essay I am thinking of was very impressive in its argument, and if his claims are true, then yeah maybe it was Edward de Vere. But the idea of “decolonizing Shakespeare” is what is revealing. The word colonialists, has been made into a pejorative or even expletive. The idea was, to claim that a group targeted for destruction should be labelled as something that can be reviled, and then use the label on anything which is foundational to western culture, no matter the context. So long as it’s destructive.

Colonists, or Colonialists are meant to be despised because they went somewhere other than where they came from, (based on leftist historical revisionism such that history begins where they say it does and not a second earlier) and imposed themselves on a group of noble savages who just wanted to live a peaceful life of ecological perfection and socialist equity, and we forced “white supremacy and capitalism” on them.

Of course all of this is untrue at so many levels that it needs its own essay. Which is the point of some of these narrative attacks. Few have the patience to deconstruct each bit of sophistry in a single narrative attack. Just remember what it was like to try and talk someone out of taking the mRNA shots. Or Global Warming, which itself as a narrative is being dropped rapidly across the globe.

In this case there is an extra layer of sophistry. Shakespeare, or whoever wrote the canon, was an Englishman in England writing about mostly English matters and occasionally Italian. (although he was way too soft on the Moors!) So decolonizing Shakespeare, clearly to make way for communist art which has bugger all to do with England, Great Britain, The United Kingdom, its people, culture or history whatsoever.

This is targeted dialectic destruction.

This is no different than tearing down statues of historical figures, after defaming them by narrative attacks on things meant to negate the value of their lives to humanity. Not to mention the culture.

We have seen this a lot in the last ten or more years. I believe the statue of Sir John A. Macdonald, Canada’s first Prime Minister, was boxed up to ‘protect it’ from ‘decolonization’ protests where statues were being vandalized and destroyed by communist revolutionaries. Of course, boxing it up had the same effect. One person, Daniel Tate, spray painted the box with the words, “Free John” on the enclosing wooden box with zero paint even touching the statue itself inside and was arrested and charged with mischief under $5,000.

(as an aside, over 20 statues in Canada and over 100 suspicious Church fires took place in the name of decolonization and anti-capitalism for which there was less than 10 arrests and ZERO convictions except for a youth in a Church fire, and his conviction was likely because as a youth there would be zero impact on his life as any record would be expunged on becoming age of majority.)

In Canada, the 3rd largest political party, and much more importantly, the party that held the balance of power in successive minority governments, the NDP, is operating under full Maoist insurgency models.

This matters of course because Trudeau stayed in power because the Liberals needed the NDP to prevent a vote of no confidence. The exact same thing is happening now with Carney’s minority Liberal government, and as an aside, this also explains why Europe is so communist. Most EU nations have proportional representation, which means a bunch of pissant leftist parties can encircle a non-Communist party and push them into the void in a move known as “Le cordon Sanitaire” or a sanitary corridor. (Both examples are solid proof that what a nation of freedom minded people need is a constitutional republic, and not any kind of democracy.)

The NDP has always been the most leftwards of all the 3 parties. I believe once there was a Social Credit party in Canada, (A very weird mix of communist economics and Christian-Traditionalist social policies)

The NDP is now about the same as the Democrat Socialists of America, the DSA. To understand who they are, watch this video from a semi-secret meeting they held with other communist parties across the World at the EU Parliament a few years ago, and a couple of videos of more recent conferences they had which were very similar to the NDP conference from the other day, and of which, people’s reactions where understandably the same. To mock and ridicule.

In the recent leadership anointing they just held, they chose a former CBC host, Avi Lewis. This alone should help us understand the active. measures, enemy propaganda agency of the CBC.

This site has long stated that the CBC is NOT the stenographers for the Liberal Party, as much as it may look like that. They are an active dialectical weapon against Canada in every aspect of its identity and will promote any politician that works to that end and turn against them when they do not.

it is amazingly consistent in this. And now, with former host, Avi Lewis as the NDP leader it appears that the CBC wants to skip the middle man altogether and go straight for national control.

Below is an example of how Lewis thinks. He openly denied the lived experience of a Somali ex-Muslim woman because she loves freedom and appreciates Western civilization. This is a jaw dropping clip at the surface level, but beneath the surface shows an agenda that is so clear it should leave no doubts.

On March 29th, the NDP held a conference where they picked Lewis as their new head. In other words, the man who would be Prime Minister in the event of an NDP win.

During that conference, they handed out equity cards. Equity itself is a dialectic. An intersectional line of attack against the core principle of Western Civilization. The merit principle, and equality before the law.

This cannot be stressed enough. While equity is sold as social justice, it absolutely was never intended to be any kind of justice whatsoever. There are so many ways one can prove this to oneself that it again would require its own essay, and many have been done on this site on the matter. One example of course would be that how they define victim groups ranges from what is useful to the purpose of destruction of civilization, and even if they have to invent an entire set of categories out of whole cloth to do so. Like the gender matrix. People who decide to place themselves in an imaginary group, now get victim status even though they have lost no rights by joining said group, and now have special power over the rest of society who may object to this special status. You, we, are literal criminals now if we deny the imaginings of these dialectical engineers. And that is what they are.

Here is how those equity cards dissolve equality and merit by their own rules: (Pasting from X’s Grok)

The NDP handed out colour-coded “equity cards” to delegates at registration. These were physical cards (different colours like green, pink, yellow, etc.) that identified the holder as belonging to one or more officially recognized “equity-seeking groups”. The five main equity-seeking groups recognized by the NDP are:Women (or “non-cis men”)
Racialized members
Indigenous members
2SLGBTQ+ members
Persons with disabilities

Delegates could receive one or more cards depending on how they self-identified (intersectionality allowed people to hold multiple cards).

The rules for using them: The cards were part of the convention’s speaking and debate rules to promote “equity” and “diverse representation.” Here’s how they worked in practice: There were separate microphones (usually “pro” and “con” mics for debates).
The chair/facilitator was supposed to prioritize speakers who held up an equity card over people who simply raised their hand or lined up normally.
The goal was to ensure that voices from “marginalized” or equity-seeking groups got to speak earlier and more often, rather than letting the usual (often straight, white, male) delegates dominate the discussion.
Holders could claim a “point of privilege” if they felt an equity card holder should have been called on before a non-card holder.

In short: The cards functioned as a line-cutting pass, based on identity categories. It was an intentional system to override “first-come, first-served” speaking order in the name of equity.

What actually happened: The system quickly turned chaotic and became one of the most viral moments from the convention. Delegates started arguing over whose card gave them higher priority:A woman with a gender equity card complained that she should have been called before someone else.
A Black woman responded that her race equity card “has no value outside of this space.”
Other arguments broke out involving trans-identified delegates (some claiming a “cis woman” should not have spoken before them).

The whole thing devolved into what many online called “Oppression Olympics” — people literally waving coloured cards to prove they deserved the microphone more. It became a major embarrassment for the party and went viral across social media.This was not satire — it was an official part of how the NDP ran debates at their own leadership convention while electing Avi Lewis as leader.

That’s not a bad description by X’s Grok. But in reality what you see is the utter systemic destruction of equality and merit using communist dialectics. Like the scam of attacking “zionism” when really it is about the destruction of the nation state as a thing. Exactly as they use the term, ‘colonialism’ in Canada, the United States and Australia and elsewhere. Even though all places have been colonized by a myriad of groups prior to Europeans. Amer-Indians are not a monolith and waged genocidal wars on each other as a historical constant. The same for the Amer-Indians and the Eskimos. They practiced “Pre-emptive killing” of each other regularly.

In other words, with the left, nothing is as presented. Once again, we have to look at it with a teleological perspective.

What is the obvious and logical outcome of a policy? Has that policy changed since its introduction? If it has not then the assumption that the REAL effect of the policy, in direct opposition to the stated aim of the policy, is what was intended in the first place.

The consequences of the card system for the meeting was predictable, and somewhat risible. And to no one’s surprise all the non-leftist sites mocked them to one degree or another. And fair enough it is hard not to. But failing comprehend what is taking place is assisting the left in its mission. Laugh all you want. But never forget the purpose to which these increasingly powerful groups are working towards. And with the various anti-individualism laws passed by Trudeau and Carney, it is not just the NDP. They are just the front wheel drive. The mainstream is forcing the polity of Canada into these models.

The NDP chose a former CBC TV host as their leader.

Ayaan Hirsi Ali by the way, the guest the new NDP excoriated on his CBC show,  has sacrificed much and risked much more to try and warn the West about the dangers of Islam, Ayaan Hirsi Ali. By the way, her book, Infidel is one of the best reads I have ever had and is highly recommended. I have seen it change the perspective of the naive multiculturalists after reading a few chapters in fact.
