“In a 1957 tract,Czech Communist Party theoretician Jan Kozák explained how a small number of communists managed to gain power in Czechoslovakia through parliamentary maneuvers. The trick was to exert pressure for radical change from two directions simultaneously—from the upper levels of government and from provocateurs in the streets.Kozák called this tactic “pressure from above and below.”
One way to exert “pressure from below,” as Kozák explained, was to fill the streets with rioters, strikers and protesters, thus creating the illusion of a widespread clamor for change from the grassroots. Radicals in the government would then exert “pressure from above,” enacting new laws on the pretext of appeasing the protesters in the street—even though the protesters (or at least their leaders) were themselves part of the plot. The majority of the people would have no idea what was going on. Squeezed from “above” and “below,” most would sink into apathy and despair, believing they were hopelessly outnumbered by the radicals—even though they were not. Thus could a radical minority impose its will on a moderate majority, even under a democratic, parliamentary system”…[LINK]
As outlined in Trans Human - A Liberation Ideology and Theology [LINK] the arrival of Modernity and Post-Modernity represented a hard-fork [LINK] and radical departure from the rich history of Western Civilisation’s Intellectual Thought [LINK].

The endemic embracement of Marxist [LINK] Liberation Theology and Ideology [LINK] - a Primacy of Man.
[LINK] - The Illusion of Liberation
The culmination of a Long March [LINK] through our Institutions and attempted Liberation [LINK] (a Theatre of the Absurd) [LINK] [LINK]):
A liberation from the transcendent, including traditional moral values and religion (refer to Nietzsche);
A liberation from the Human Condition that was inherent within the Contingent Being of Man (refer to Artificial General Intelligence, Trans Humanism, Scientific Gnosticism (Scientism), Nietzschean Übermensch, Nietzschean Will to Power);
A liberation from the intolerable conditions and suffering of the Material Realm through attaining a Consciousness - a Gnosis (refer to Gnosticism, including Modern Gnosticism, Trans Humanism, Geo-Bio-Genetic-Engineering, Cartesian Mechanical Machine World View, Heidegger’s Technology Enframing (Bestand - Standing Reserve), and Jacques Ellul’s Technology Society & System); and
A liberation from an independent objective Reality (refer to the Theology of Marxism (i.e. a power-directed system of thought), Nietzsche’s Theory of Perspectivism, Saussurean Dyadic Semiotics, Jean Baudrillard’s Post-Modern Simulacra, Simulation and HyperReality ).
The allure of the Ring. [LINK] despite the absurdity & illusion of Liberation.
Marxism Theology and the Manipulation of Reality
[ What happened to Scottish Common Sense Realism in Education? [LINK] - How Europe’s New Political Class Began Rejecting Reality [LINK ] ]
“The political class that emerged in Europe after the Cold War have become excessively ideological and committed to narratives tosocially construct new realities.The Europeans' embrace of postmodernism entails questioning the existence of objective reality
as our understanding of reality is shaped by language, culture and unique historical perspectives.The postmodernists therefore often seek to change narratives and language as a source of political power. If reality is a social construction, then the grand narratives can be more important than facts. Indeed, ideological narratives must be defended from inconvenient facts

Do the Secular Post-Modern Progressive Political Left [LINK] consciously understand they are partaking in somebody else’s higher-order game of manipulation ?
[LINK]
Marxist Theology [LINK] (grounded in Dialectical Materialism) is simply the ideological, social, cultural & political technique of manipulation and transformation - refer - Mechanical Philosophy [LINK] and Stalinist [LINK], Maoist [LINK] & Marxist [LINK] social & political techniques of manipulation & transformation known as Dialectical Materialism [LINK] and Historical Materialism [LINK].
[LINK] - Refer to Book - How the British Invented Communism [LINK]
The reason Marxist ideology [LINK] is philosophically embraced [LINK] is:
Reality becomes a subjective Human Social Construct (i.e. a Modern Sophism) and therefore can be manipulated and shaped accordingly to suit various powerful interest Groups [LINK];
The pursuit of Truth [LINK] [LINK] that was central to Ancient Greek Philosophy, Christian Theology and Western Civilisation Intellectual Thought [LINK] no longer matters - a New Dark Age emerges [LINK] - a return to Platos Cave [LINK];
Marxism Theology [LINK] is a power directed system of thought [LINK] - a new form of Totalitarianism [LINK];
The only thing that now matters is a Nietzschean Will to Power [LINK]; and
Society’s Perception of Reality can now be shaped and manipulated [LINK] via Semiotic Signs [LINK] ( e.g. main stream media [LINK], large language models [LINK][LINK][LINK], censorship [LINK], propaganda [LINK], algorithms [LINK] including Marxist Laws (e.g. Legal Positivism [LINK]) etc).
