The Manson Family and Modern Liberalism

Charles Manson is, of course, a name that needs no introduction to any of my readers. A halfway decent song writer/producer and leader of a cult that committed brutal murders in his name, the Manson Family has been repeatedly cited as the proverbial “last nail in the coffin” of the New Frontier idealism of the 1960s, and its hippie subculture in particular.

We all know about the murders that occurred at the Spahn Ranch in 1969, but how many of you are at all familiar with the beliefs the Manson Family espoused? The beliefs that prompted the murders of Sharon Tate, Jay Sebring, and the others?

The cult’s aim was essentially a post-apocalyptic power play in a vastly depopulated world, combined with the liberalism of the decade. To whit:

Charlie and Pals wanted to murder famous Hollywood celebrities and other movers and shakers, and write “Helter Skelter” (incidentally an old English phrase meaning “disorder”) on the walls of the murder scene, in the hopes of framing the murders as the actions of political radicals, in particular African-American radicals. This was because, having listened to the Beatles’ The White Album, he somehow managed to interpret the lyrics as a prophecy of a cataclysmic race war, and decided to provoke it.

More murders of (white) celebrities would be committed by the Manson family until this sparked all-out race war between blacks and whites. At which point the family would hide out somewhere discrete whilst the race war raged.

Once the dust cleared and the dusky hordes had completely genocided the white man (as the Mansons intended), the Manson family would then emerge from their hideout and be heralded as the righteous rulers of the world by the dusky hordes that remained.

So, to reiterate that for the dense: The Masons family, made entirely of white people, would run off and hide as a cataclysmic race war raged that would end with all white people being slaughtered. Once all that was done, the Mansons (again, white), would be proclaimed the rightful rulers of the Earth by the dusky hordes…the dusky hordes that had just killed all white people.

I’m sure that you can understand all of the ways that this plan doesn’t make any sense, but apparently Chuck couldn’t, which is probably why he and family were immediately caught after the Tate-LaBianca murders and sentenced to life in prison, in which Chuck lived into 2017…and received thousands of marriage proposals along the way, ultimately consummating one with a woman 60 years his junior. But that’s just tangential.

So, all in all, it apparently seems a fairly cut and dry crime story…how does this connect to what’s going on in modern times at all?

That’s actually fairly simple to answer: some forms of modern leftist thought, the deconstructionist/intersectional sort to be specific, are almost identical to the Helter Skelter philosophy.

“Larsen, I think you’re exaggerating” you’re probably saying. And the answer is that I am…but very slightly.

The modern left, still led mostly by upper-class white people, wants nothing more than to import in unlimited numbers of “the dusky hordes” (that they view with barely veiled condescension), encourage them to resent white people and blame them for all their problems…and seek to avoid being lumped into the “evil white people” category purely by differentiating between “bad whites” who should be deposed and the “good whites” like themselves. Those same goodwhites will produce reams of verbiage gloating about how the evil whites will be, and deserve to be, overthrown by the dusky brethren who are just superior in all respects.

Does this not resemble a lighter and softer version of Charles Manson’s ideal?

Are you still not convinced? Let’s take a look at one Robert “Moviebob” Chipman, a man that I have previously discussed, and a man who embodies modern liberalism at its worst. Look at the fanatical glee he doesn’t even bother ot contain as he discusses the “inferior people” who have farms and work with their hands, and how they will be outmoded by the glorious urban vertical farms and replaced with Central American serf labor. And naturally, Bob and people like Bob are the rightful rulers of the Earth—the brown people will just accept their wonderfulness and bow to them at once!

Bob, of course, is not alone in his desire to bring in peon labor, but at least it makes sense for the “white Hispanics” that represent Hispanics in American politics to want this—they’re long used to having 4 foot tall Aztecs as barely-above-slave-labor, so why wouldn’t they want that here?

White Anglos, on the other hand, have no peonage in their recent history, but they share a belief that the white lower classes deserve to be overthrown by brown people—the Anglo just justifies it morally.

So while I doubt it was intentional, modern liberals are extremely similar to the philosophy of Charles Manson. And with that being said: why take them seriously?
