Third Wayism

The evil brilliance of third wayism, the ideology of contemporary Democrats and similar parties in Europe, was figuring out that you don't need tax shifts to redistribute trillions of dollars to the top. You merely deregulate, support globalism, support austerity, support oligopolies, bail out the rich, provide tax entitlements, fail to enforce regulations, keep unemployment excessively high, and employ token punishments against crimes committed by the wealthy.

Third wayism indoctrinates the wealthy and upper middle classes to feel morally superior for believing in poorly reasoned biocultural Marxism. Thus, to be a respectable person, one supports wrecking the lives, jobs, families, schools, cultures, and neighborhoods of nonwealthy whites, while Third Wayers themselves stay safely away from nonwhites with harmful tendencies.

Third wayism pretends other arrangements are impossible or impractical or endlessly stymied by Republicans. But as we saw in 2009 and 2010, when Democrats controlled Congress and the White House, contemporary Democrats' commitments the people are far more word than deed. Bait-and-switch keeps fooling Democratic Party voters. Having lots of social junk science around also helps the third way cause.

Contemporary Republicans, Libertarians, and Constitution Partiers, of course, are even worse, supporting the above plus massive tax shifts away from the rich, onto nonwealthy individuals and future generations.

The ultimate paradigm case of third way gradual totalitarianism was Joe Lieberman, the former Senator from Wall Street, who hilariously pretended to be centrist and independent, grandstanding of minor issues while enriching the wealthy.
