INTRODUCTION 🎮

1 ❗. ⁠⁠The Industrial 🏭 Revolution 😍🍆 and its consequences 😡💪🤛 have been a disaster 😱❌ for the human 👤 race 🏃‍♀️. They have greatly 👍🏼 increased 🧂😭 the life-expectancy of those of us 👨 who live 🐙 in “advanced” countries 🇺🇸, but 🍑 they have destabilized society 😼👌💥, have made 👑 life 👤 unfulfilling, have subjected 😠🗯 human 👤 beings 💦 to indignities, have led 👉👌💦 to widespread 😷 psychological 🧠 suffering 😣😫😖 (in the Third 3️⃣ World 🌍 to physical 👊 suffering 😭 as well 😦) and have inflicted severe 📉 damage 👻 on 🔛 the natural 🌿 world 🌍🌎🌏. The continued ✈ development 👩‍💻 of technology 💡 will worsen 🆘😭 the situation 🎮. It will certainly 🔗 subject 🔥💥❄ human 👤 being to greater 💡 indignities and inflict 😵 greater 💯❌ damage 💥 on 🔛 the natural 👉 world 🌎, it will probably 🤔 lead 👑 to greater 👅 social 👥 disruption 😒 and psychological 🧠 suffering 😭😡, and it may 🗓♀ lead 👉👌💦 to increased 🧂😭 physical 👊 suffering 😭 even 🌃 in “advanced” countries 🇺🇸. 2 🕝. ⁠⁠The industrial-technological system 🗺 may 🗓 survive 🙏 or it may 🗓 break 💔 down 🔻. If it survives 🙏🏼😩😭, it MAY 🗓 eventually 🔪🗡 achieve 💯✔ a low 👇 level 🎚 of physical 👁😱😤 and psychological 🧠 suffering 😭, but 🤔 only after 👀 passing 💯 through a long 🕚 and very 👌 painful 🔪 period 🩸 of adjustment 💰 and only at the cost 💸💵💴 of permanently 📒 reducing ⏬😜 human 👤 beings 💦 and many 👬 other living 🙅 organisms ♻ to engineered ⚙ products 🏭🔨🔧 and mere 🏫 cogs in the social 📖 machine 🤖. Furthermore ☝, if the system 🗺 survives 🙏🏼😩😭, the consequences 🙊🙀 will be inevitable 😳😱😨: There is no 🙅🏿‍♂️❌ way ↕ of reforming or modifying the system 🗺 so as to prevent 🚫 it from depriving people 👫🗑 of dignity 🙍 and autonomy. 3 ⭕ℹ🕘. ⁠⁠If the system 🗺 breaks 💔 down ⬇ the consequences 🙊🙀 will still 🙄 be very 👌 painful 😭. But 🍑 the bigger 😳😲 the system 🗺 grows 💗 the more disastrous 😱 the results 👀💯 of its breakdown 🚨🙀 will be, so if it is to break 💔 down ⬇ it had best 👌 break 💔 down ⬇ sooner 🕛 rather 👉 than later 🕑. 4 💦. ⁠⁠We therefore 😤😡 advocate 🚫 a revolution 😍🍆 against 🙅‍♀️🚫 the industrial 🏭 system 🗺. This revolution 😍🍆 may 🗓 or may 🗓 not make 💘 use 😏 of violence 💣; it may 🗓 be sudden 😱 or it may 🗓 be a relatively 👨‍👧‍👧 gradual 📝 process 🏭 spanning 🙏 a few decades 🗓. We can’t predict 🤔 any of that. But 🍑 we do outline 📄 in a very 👌😔 general 🤷 way 💫 the measures 📐 that those who hate 😡🖕 the industrial 🛠🏭 system ☄ should take 👊 in order 📑 to prepare 🙍🏾 the way 💫 for a revolution 😍🍆 against 🚫 that form 📋 of society 👥. This is not to be a POLITICAL 🇺🇸 revolution ✊⚔. Its object 👆🤙 will be to overthrow ✊ not governments 💩 but 🍑 the economic 📉 and technological 💡 basis 📅 of the present 🎁 society 🤵👥🌃. 5 🔳. ⁠⁠In this article 📄 we give 🎁 attention ⚠ to only some of the negative 👎 developments 🚀 that have grown 💪 out of the industrial-technological system 🗺. Other such developments 👩‍💻 we mention 🗣 only briefly 😎 or ignore 💩 altogether. This does not mean 😏 that we regard 🤔❤ these other developments 🚀 as unimportant. For practical 😚 reasons 🤔 we have to confine ⚗ our discussion 🗣👄 to areas ⚠💀 that have received 💌 insufficient 🌡🥵🌊 public 🚋 attention ⚠ or in which we have something 😅 new 🆕 to say 🗣. For example 💪, since 👨 there are well-developed environmental 🌍 and wilderness 🐻 movements 📦, we have written ✒🖌 very 👌 little 👌👖 about 💦 environmental 🌍 degradation 😭👌 or the destruction 💥🔫 of wild 🐻 nature 🌲, even 🌃 though 💥 we consider 🤔 these to be highly ⬆💊🕛 important 🔝.

THE PSYCHOLOGY 🧠 OF MODERN 🖥 LEFTISM 🤮

6 🕡. Almost 💦 everyone 👥 will agree 😂✅💯 that we live 🐙 in a deeply 😱 troubled 😧 society 😼👌💥. One 😤👼 of the most widespread 😷 manifestations 😈 of the craziness 🤪 of our world 🌎 is leftism 🤮, so a discussion 🤔 of the psychology 🧠 of leftism 🆘 can serve 💁 as an introduction 🎮 to the discussion 🤔 of the problems 😊 of modern 🖥 society 👥 in general 💂. 7 💪😂. But 🤔 what is leftism 🆘? During the first 🥇 half 💀 of the 20th 💯🎂 century 💯 leftism ⬅ could have been practically ❤ identified with socialism 🚫. Today 📅 the movement 👣 is fragmented and it is not clear 😋😉 who can properly 👌 be called 📲 a leftist 😱😅😈. When ⏰ we speak 🙊 of leftists ⬅ in this article 📰 we have in mind 🧠 mainly 😷 socialists 🚫, collectivists, “politically correct” types 💻, feminists ♀, gay 🏳️‍🌈 and disability ♿😜 activists 😍🍆💦, animal 🐶 rights ✔ activists 👤 and the like 💖. But 🍑 not everyone 👥 who is associated ✅↔ with one ☝ of these movements 👣 is a leftist 😎. What we are trying 😈 to get 🔟 at in discussing 😡😠 leftism ⬅ is not so much 🔥 movement 📦 or an ideology 💯🚫 as a psychological 🤕 type 💻, or rather 😮💭 a collection 🤤 of related 👪 types ⌨📝. Thus 😎💅, what we mean 😏 by “leftism” will emerge 🆘🚨 more clearly 😋😉 in the course 😂😤 of our discussion 🤔 of leftist ⬅ psychology 🤕. (Also 👨, see 👁 paragraphs 📕📘 227-230.) 8 👊. Even 🌃 so, our conception 🤔 of leftism 😱😅😈 will remain 😥 a good 👌 deal 🙅 less ➖ clear 😋😉 than we would wish 🙏, but 🍑 there doesn’t seem 👀 to be any remedy 💊💉🏨 for this. All 💯 we are trying 😼👌💥 to do here is indicate 💣 in a rough 😖 and approximate 🤓 way 💫 the two ✌ psychological 🧠 tendencies 🍗 that we believe 🌈 are the main 🅱 driving 🚗🚕 force 🖐 of modern 🕸 leftism 🤣🤫😂. We by no 🙅 means 😏 claim 🌊 to be telling 😍🗣 the WHOLE 💦 truth 💯 about 💦 leftist 😱😅😈 psychology 🤕. Also 👨, our discussion 🗣👄 is meant 👀 to apply 📄 to modern 🖥 leftism ⬅ only. We leave 🍃🍁 open 😃 the question ❓ of the extent 👀 to which our discussion 🗣🤔 could be applied 👀 to the leftists 😱😅😈 of the 19th 🤔 and early 🕐 20th 💯🎂 centuries 💯‼🎟. 9 💯. The two 💏 psychological 🧠 tendencies 🍗 that underlie mo 🅱- dern leftism ⬅ we call 📲 “feelings of inferiority” and “over-socialization”. Feelings 😁 of inferiority ❌ are characteristic 🔣 of modern 🖥 leftism ⬅ as a whole 💦, while oversocialization is characteristic 🔣 only of a certain 🔗 segment of modern 🕸 leftism 🤮 as a whole 💦😍; but 🤔 this segment is highly 🕛 influential 🙃.
