Aristocratic Revolutionaries

Leftism is and always has been, says Yarvin, an aristocratic ideal:

All the leftist revolutions—from the English Civil War to Subcommander Marcos—are led by aristocrats in the name of the people. The revolution is rightfully embarrassed by this falsity and always seeks to conceal and/or mitigate it. But every revolution is an uprising of a young upper class against the old regime. 

As a result, all these leftist revolutions are oligarchic in nature. And no other revolutions have won in the Anglophone world for centuries. 

Upper-upper classes (no typo) always initiate revolutionary change because they want to be freer. They will make life very inconvenient for all the rest of us in their pursuit of greater freedom. Greater freedom for them results in far less freedom for us. If you want an example (mine, not Yarvin’s), Governor Pritzker wants his brother to be free to pretend to be a woman, so all children in Illinois kindergartens are forced to recite lies about “gender assigned at birth”. Unless, of course, their parents can afford private school. And if those parents don’t mind their children growing up never to have access to money that could pay for their children’s private school. Because you are excluded from serious money making if you haven’t interiorized and grown to believe in gender assigned at birth.

For one oligarch to achieve the kind of freedom nobody could begin to fantasize about in the entirety of human history, the whole state has to be deprived of the kind of freedom everybody took completely for granted for the entirety of human history. Freedom is dead, long live a new kind of freedom.
