Attacks Upon Traditionalism Are Intolerable
We live at a time at which the younger generation of intellectuals must bear upon themselves the weight of a great cultural struggle. At a time when the radical left are not only attempting to promote all sorts of moral degeneracy, but also resorting to unprecedented vicious schemes against traditional ways of life, many misleading statements are being made. The enemies of traditional viewpoints are in effect resorting to slander and abuse, calling them “totalitarian”, “barracks-like” and “backwards”, and by doing so are distorting the facts, pretending that such is its nature, and that the need to abolish it in its entirety is a by-product of its “archaic and oppressive” content, and that its loss in its function is due to this nature.
Unlike other creatures, Man is not merely a biological animal, but one which also encompasses spiritual, social, and economic spheres. In the degenerate age, the corrupt “rulers” have emphasized only the biological and economic portions of Man’s innate nature, but have ignored the spiritual and social spheres. In so doing, they have created a shameful, casteless society in which relationships between people are meaningless, leading to much social unrest and strife. By ignoring the spiritual sphere and supplanting it with the economic, they have made life unfufilling and degenerate.
It is a mistake to associate Traditionalism with backwardness or Liberalism with freedom. Moreover, it is also a mistake to overestimate the value of the so-called “freedom in a democratic society”. It must be realized, first, that the claim that proponents of morality and traditionalism are “oppressors” first coincided with the rise of Protestantism, and took full force during the Englightenment. It was not, however, until fairly recently that these anti-morality and counter-cultural struggles began to acquire their full speed in a political scope. In the modern era, the liberal’s refusal to accept a hierarchy of culture as well as a fixed, natural system of morality has lead to outright slanderous attacks of any non-liberal or traditional culture practice to be labeled as “absolutist”. In today’s world, the leftists have even postulated, and even declared that any society that runs on any form of morality must be completely inhumane, devoid of any freedom or democracy. Furthermore, by a corrupt use of neo-Marxist ideology, the liberal attempts to demoralize Tradition for the sake of the “survival” of liberalism. Therefore, the claims of traditionalism being “totalitarian”, “barracks-like” and “absolutist” are only a repetition of the false liberal propaganda that merely uses new words.
The original idea on which the supposed “social democracy” was founded once advocated freedom, equality and human rights, in opposition to feudal despotism and corruption. One can agree that, the modern age has some conveniences for man, but once again turning to a closer examination, we realize that, in the hands of a few radicals, these freedoms began to be abused and transformed to allow the anti-traditionalists to resort to attacks against Traditionalism. In recent years, the left has made every possible effort to embellish their impure ideologies, calling it “liberal democracy”; however, they could not conceal its falsity, nor were they able to remove from the minds of the popular masses their aspiration and longing for a moral order which would provide them with genuine freedom. To counter this problem, they resorted to vicious propaganda, which frantically resorted to call traditionalism “archaic”, and by using the precept of “separation of church and state”. Through this, the early European liberals lead Traditionalism to be abolished in public, while at the same time, allowing corruption, paganism, and vile superstitions to flourish. The rapid propagation of such corruption was also a result of the collusion by the left, and the cultural infiltration of the so-called ‘revolutionary’ schemes of the radicalized Left during the 1960’s.
Furthermore, in order to stifle the roles of Traditionalism, liberals have for a long time been perpetrating every manner of destructive action: aggression and pressure toward Traditionalists to back down from our principles, and appeasement of our oppressors. As it stands today, the ideological confusion on what defines the corpus of proper thought across many schools and denominations is due to the fact that renegades have appeared in the upper strata of all areas of academics. In the historical situation in which traditional values such as morality had become a powerful force in the guidance of the affairs of state, liberals attached greater importance to the strategy of infiltrating it and undermining it from within and made many attempts to achieve this aim. In accordance with this strategy, the leftists made increasingly malevolent attempts to force acceptance of leftist propaganda to an unprecedented level, the chief aim being to justify the abolition of morality and culture on a large scale.
“Totalitarianism,” albeit under the guise of “justice for all,” served as the political idea of liberalism. Because liberals wish to create the world in the image of man – essentially an impure and decadent creation that mocks God – they espouse secularism. They wish to replace religion with the dogma of liberalism, since the modern liberal does not seek to tolerate people different than him, but rather to invade every private corner and force every thought into a “politically correct” mold. Their fervor and fanaticism in this comes close to being quasi-religious, whereunto everyone who disagrees with them is called a “fascist” (their word for “heretic”). The deeper concern in the course of abolishing any concept of God was not for the benefit of the masses (as they claim), to claim power and abolish morals. The fact that this dishonest system is by nature a concept that naturally arises from liberalism points to the fact that under that system, the interests of the people are sacrificed for the rapacious interests of the ruling class under the pretence that the individual should be subordinated to the whole in the name of progress. However, what was meant by the whole in liberal totalitarianism was not the masses, but a tiny handful of Party members. Liberalism is ultimately a preposterous lie, which identifies illegal actions that are as inimical to so-called democracy as the implementation of social progressivism.
Unless action is taken quickly in this respect, such abuses will only continue to be fostered and grow. If this is permitted to happen, liberals will alienate the popular masses from living moral lives, and the enemies of Traditionalism will exploit this. The situation of atheist countries clearly shows this: In every country, the people demanded freedom of religion, not freedom from religion. Even so, acts of betrayal against the people were committed in order to instigate people to oppose morality by misleading them with the preposterous slander that religion was “poison”. What the people of those countries got as a result of the collapse of morality was not freedom, but oppression and social inequality. In those countries in which Traditionalism was abolished, abuse of power did not disappear, but was socially legitimized and institutionalized.
Clearly, slander against traditional culture and values are absurd. But the reason why it was so damaging and had caused so much doubt and confusion among the people was because they had not been properly equipped to deal with the lies of the left. Furthermore, it was not easy to identify the malicious nature of the slander from the outset, because it was conducted craftily in the guise of social progressivism. But if the People had been instructed in developing and perfecting the Five Purities with the correct intentions, they would have been equipped proper yardstick for measuring the events which were happening, and they would have not been easily shaken by such sophistry. Therefore, if our cause is to be defended and competed, the teaching of we must begin with a strong base of Traditional culture. This itself must be developed and perfected so that we may be equipped with it, in hopes that we may proceed with an unshakable conviction towards our goals. By so doing, we will be making efforts to rejoin a moral force with the law can we conduct the cultural struggle which is instrumental in governing the People.
In conclusion, we must derive a proper lesson from the setback faced by in recent times and reject all the liberal propaganda on all possible levels. We must advance more vigorously toward the bright future of humanity, displaying such intelligence and courage as to turn misfortune into a blessing.
