In the grand theatre of modern politics, the Left finds itself caught in a web of contradictions, where the forces of big business and Western governments cleverly manipulate the very ideals they champion. The narrative of equality and immigration (aka Wokeism), often portrayed as progressive and inclusive, is, in fact, a Trojan horse that benefits these powerful groups at the expense of the working class. Big businesses and Western governments use Leftist Social Justice Wokeism and Critical Theory to mask their real agenda: maintaining control, maximising profits, and perpetuating the exploitation of the working class. This collusion disrupts social harmony and creates a facade of progressivism while undermining genuine efforts for social equity.

Big Businesses’ Gain

1. Immigration: A Tool for Cheap Labour

Big businesses have long understood the power of immigration as a means to suppress wages and maintain a steady supply of low-cost labour. By advocating for open borders and lax immigration policies, these corporations ensure a constant influx of workers willing to accept lower salaries, effectively weakening the bargaining power of the domestic workforce. This strategy not only boosts profits but also keeps inflation in check, as the cost of labour remains artificially low.

2. Gender Theories: A Convenient Distraction

The rise of gender theories and the push for diversity and inclusion have been a boon for big businesses seeking to enhance their ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) credentials. By embracing these ideologies, corporations can claim to be at the forefront of social progress while diverting attention from their exploitative labour practices and the widening wealth gap. The left, in their well-intentioned pursuit of equality, unwittingly plays into the hands of these companies, allowing them to continue their profit-driven agendas under the guise of social responsibility.

Western Liberal Governments’ Manipulation

1. Discourses of Equality

Current Western governments, through Leftist policies, often champion discourses of equality (aka Wokeism) to align themselves with progressive values and gain public support. However, this rhetoric is frequently used to mask policies that favour big businesses and elite interests. By promoting narratives of equality and inclusivity, politicians can appear progressive while enacting legislation that benefits powerful corporations at the expense of the working class.

2. Control of Media

Western Liberal governments and big businesses manipulate media discourses to shape public opinion and maintain control over the narrative. By controlling the media, they can ensure that discussions around immigration and gender theories are framed in ways that support their interests. This manipulation keeps the public focused on identity politics and social issues, diverting attention from economic inequalities and the exploitation of workers.

Big businesses seek to reduce labour costs.
Far-left woke ideologies support immigration, increasing the labour supply.  Therefore, big businesses finance far-left woke ideologies to benefit from reduced labour costs.

People as Hostage

While the left may be the major proponents of woke policies, it is the people at large who have been fooled, seduced, and left behind by the discourse and propaganda carved by big business and liberal Western governments.

1. The Working Class Left Behind

As wages stagnate and the cost of living continues to rise, the working class is left to bear the brunt of the multinationals’ gains. The influx of immigration and low-wage labour exacerbates domestic workers’ economic pressures, making it increasingly difficult to make ends meet. The advocacy for open borders, under the banner of equality, ultimately undermines the very people these policies claim to support. This leaves the broader population struggling with reduced job security and diminished economic prospects.

2. Social Fragmentation and Violence

The emphasis on gender theories and identity politics has led to a growing sense of social fragmentation, as individuals are encouraged to focus on their differences rather than their shared humanity. This division, coupled with the strain of economic hardship, has contributed to increased violence and social unrest. The seductive appeal of woke policies masks the underlying economic inequalities and distracts from the root causes of societal issues. This strategy benefits big businesses and governments, shifting the focus away from systemic problems and allowing for the continuation of exploitative practices.

3. Propaganda and Distraction

Promoting Social Justice Woke policies by big business and liberal Western governments are a powerful form of propaganda. It creates an illusion of progress and inclusivity while diverting attention from the deeper, systemic issues of economic injustice and exploitation. The people are seduced by the promise of social advancement, unaware that these policies are often superficial and serve to maintain the status quo. This manipulation ensures that the focus remains on identity politics and cultural issues rather than on the economic policies that would genuinely improve the lives of the working class.

Conclusion

The left’s embrace of immigration and gender theories as tools for advancing equality is a tragic miscalculation. These ideologies, far from empowering the marginalised, have been co-opted by the forces of big business and Western governments to maintain the status quo and perpetuate the exploitation of the working class. By leveraging Leftist Social Justice and Critical Theory, these powerful entities mask their real agenda, creating an illusion of progress while deepening social and economic divides.

It is time for the left to reassess their priorities and recognise the true nature of the game being played. Only by returning to a focus on economic justice and the material well-being of all people can the left hope to break free from the shackles of corporate and governmental control and work towards a more equitable and just society. True progress requires a critical examination of how social justice narratives are used to manipulate public perception and maintain existing power structures.

Neoliberalism is the extreme form of capitalism that shapes our current economic system, advocating for minimal state intervention, extensive deregulation, and widespread privatisation to maximise free market efficiency.
