Mark Levin\u2019s new book, \u201cAmerican Marxism,\u201d confirms those fears, exposes the chilling aims and methods of these malicious groups, and provides a blueprint to restore America to a path of recovery.<\/p>\n<p>Levin has a gift for distilling abstract ideas into understandable terms for lay consumption. I\u2019ve personally written and discussed many of the ideas he addresses in this compelling book but had not considered the term \u201ccounterrevolution\u201d to describe what we\u2019re witnessing.<\/p>\n<p>He is exactly right. This is a counterrevolution to the American revolution, and horrifyingly, \u201cIt is devouring our society and culture, swirling around our everyday lives, and ubiquitous in our politics, schools, media, and entertainment.\u201d He is also correct that this disturbing insurrection is no longer a fringe movement but is in the mainstream of our culture and institutions.<\/p>\n<p>Mark identifies the source of this threat \u2014 Marxism \u2014 the sinister, utopian ideology \u201cresponsible for the enslavement, impoverishment, torture, and death of untold millions.\u201d But he goes further and usefully tags the particular brand of this menace as \u201cAmerican Marxism\u201d: \u201cthe application and adaption of core Marxist teachings to American society and culture.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>What makes the counterrevolutionaries particularly dangerous is their sophisticated techniques of distorting language, disguising their true intent with deceitful euphemisms to disarm patriots and facilitate their scheme to fundamentally transform this nation into something unrecognizable to its founders and wholly unacceptable to all who cherish and revere the glorious American experiment in self-governance. They\u2019ve labeled themselves \u201cprogressives,\u201d \u201csocial activists\u201d and other innocuous-sounding terms because they know Americans still, by the grace of God, reject naked Marxism. More recently, they operate under such organizations as Black Lives Matter, cloaking their anti-capitalist designs in a facade of racial, environmental or gender justice. They have foisted their once-ridiculed notion of critical race theory into the forefront of our lives, forcing this dangerous philosophy into mainstream societal acceptance.<\/p>\n<p>Race agitation isn\u2019t their only weapon. They\u2019ve achieved considerable traction in the advancement of their agenda through divisive class warfare, which fuels their destructive policies of obscene deficit spending, confiscatory taxation, and runaway governmental and bureaucratic regulation.<\/p>\n<p>Their shameless employment of identity politics is just one of many arrows in their quiver. They expand their arsenal to ensure that certain setbacks will not ultimately thwart their agenda. To shore up their bases, they promote extraconstitutional schemes to crush their opposition through ostensibly legal means, such as changing the voting rules to rig the playing field in favor of their candidates. In the name of preserving our democratic processes, they pervert them \u2014 disenfranchising people while pretending to protect their voting rights.<\/p>\n<p>We saw this on the front pages lately when President Joe Biden preposterously argued that such election-integrity measures as voter ID were the greatest threat to American democracy since the Civil War. He also scored a twofer, as he invoked race \u2014 echoing his party\u2019s position that these laws are a new form of heinous Jim Crow legislation. Anyone with half a brain recognizes that eliminating the requirement of proving one\u2019s identity as a condition to voting destroys rather than safeguards the integrity of the election process. Anyone with half a molecule of discernment understands that to equate voter ID laws to suppression of the Black vote is the worst kind of patronizing insult to Black voters, who these demagogues imply aren\u2019t capable of furnishing proof of their own identity.<\/p>\n<p>Levin astutely notes that while the counterrevolutionaries were formerly very cautious in concealing their goals, they are becoming more confident with their recent successes and thus more outspoken and brazen about who they are. They\u2019ve also developed another formidable weapon to impose their ideas, which is to intimidate, silence and cancel those who dare to oppose them or who even casually violate their draconian rules for acceptable speech and behavior.<\/p>\n<p>The stakes couldn\u2019t be higher. Whereas the American Revolution was founded on liberty and representative government and led to the freest and most powerful nation in history, the counterrevolution aims to destroy our form of government, our cherished liberties, our society and our way of life.<\/p>\n<p>Levin soberly observes that to defeat the threat we face, \u201ca unified, patriotic front of previously docile \u2026 factions and forces\u201d that believes America is worthy of defending must emerge. People of good will must wake up to the gravity of the threats we face and recognize \u201cthe urgency of the moment\u201d and rise up to take back this nation.<\/p>\n<p>In \u201cAmerican Marxism,\u201d Mark Levin paints a bleak picture of an America under siege, but he offers hope that we can turn this around and inspires us to unite around the noble cause of liberty and the salvation of the greatest nation the world has ever known.<\/p>\n<p><em>David Limbaugh is a writer, author and attorney.
