Dr. Burke spoke out against the [[Propaganda]] of his day, what he termed the name-calling, new dangerous parlor game of "creeping socialism" that appeared in the late 50s-60s under influence of the [[Conservatism|John Birch Society]]. That game, a sort of baiting tactic that seeks to inflame emotion, has only escalated since then, leading to the current polarized political situation in which "evidence-free" conspiracies predominate — from communism to sexism and racism. After having begun in ernest in political Conservatism of the 1950s-60s, the "game" proceeded to reach a flashpoint around the JFK assassination, after which the "game" went viral into the 3rd Millenium where political Liberalism eventually became infected as well, with its own mutated strain of "woke" parlor game.<br> | Dr. Burke spoke out against the [[Propaganda]] of his day, what he termed the name-calling, new dangerous parlor game of "creeping socialism" that appeared in the late 50s-60s under influence of the [[Conservatism|John Birch Society]].

Certainly such things as communism, sexism and racism have been and still are problems within the USA, so the issue is not whether communism, sexism or racism are problems. The issue is how these problems are addressed. Dr. Burke always addressed such issues with well researched factual information and well reasoned response to such information. He did not traffic in [[Propaganda]], or any form of manipulation. He did not try to "defeat communism by thinking like a Communist". He didn't think the US should fight fire with fire, should use dirty, underhanded totalitarian tactics against totalitarianism as means to justify ends, which would only make the US totalitarian too. Instead of fighting fire with fire, he responded to those who differed from his way of thinking with educational persuasion, not with name-calling end to discussion, lying, evasion, or outbursts of heated emotion or violence — which is what makes Dr. Burke the True [https://sites.google.com/site/dralberteburke/patriot Patriot] over and against those calling themselves "patriots" when they're not, who do nothing but make "empty barrel loud noise" about "creeping socialism". Such "empty barrels" are forever accusing others of treason, when they are the real traitors who have spurned Dr. Burke's way of thinking in order instead to play games of mindless accusations that lead to violence.<br> | Certainly such things as communism, sexism and racism have been and still are problems within the USA, so the issue is not whether communism, sexism or racism are problems.

Dr. Burke's way of thinking is most evident in his | Dr. Burke's way of thinking is most evident in his program [https://ia800207.us.archive.org/34/items/gov.archives.arc.647298/gov.archives.arc.647298_512kb.mp4 Cuba: The Battle of America]. In that program, he shows clearly how the cause of "creeping socialism" in foreign countries post World War II was (and still is) due to Corporate America's failure to practice concern for others, to "love thy neighbor as thyself" and to "do unto others as you would have others do unto you", thereby revealing that Corporate America cares only about a pocket full of gold, not [[wikipedia:Golden_Rule|The Golden Rule]]. Corporate America's exploitation of natural resources in other countries comes at the expense of the poor who live there, for whom assistance is the Christian responsibility of the individual owners of Corporate America, who are blessed by God with wealth in great abundance, well above their own need for survival, for the sole purpose of being a blessing to others as God has blessed them.<br> | ||
Such exploitation is the cause of revolutions in the exploited countries, revolutions that always seem to crop up under the banner of "communism" (or with the aid of communist Russia or China) because such revolutions are in opposition to the capitalist exploiters who are Corporate America. It's as simple as the fact that if there were Corporate Americans that opposed such exploitation of foreign lands (who potential revolutionaries could turn to for support in expelling exploiters from their homelands), then exploited people would not have to turn communist or turn to communists to support their opposition to being exploited. Dr. Burke voiced opposition to such mindless exploitation because he was a True [https://sites.google.com/site/dralberteburke/patriot Patriot] who loved and cared for the USA, the Earth environment (without which nothing and no one can live), and the civil rights of Americans, minorities, and indigenous people around the world, all of which were (and apparently still are) fair game for exploitation according to the Corporate American way of thinking.<br> | Such exploitation is the cause of revolutions in the exploited countries, revolutions that always seem to crop up under the banner of "communism" (or with the aid of communist Russia or China) because such revolutions are in opposition to the capitalist exploiters who are Corporate America.

So in the final analysis, the "creeping socialism" parlor game that's been played for decade upon decades, and it's latest counterpart "game" of "woke" (the flip side of the same propagandized political coin) are nothing but [[Propaganda]] ploys. Such ploys serve the purpose of maintaining the status quo of Corporate America's pocket full of gold, by dividing Americans and thereby distracting from the underlying problem common to everyone in order to maintain the [[Economy]] by way of [[Business]] as usual. That ploy can only succeed as long as Corporate America can find useful idiots, puppets to play the "creeping socialism" and "woke" parlor games. In reality, political "left" and "right" are the propaganda magician's illusion, because all the political elites from both parties have their hands in Corporate America's pocket full of gold. | |||
