““Progressives” – Presidents Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson, according to Breitbart, were early U.S. progenitors of the Hegelian theory that drove the early 20th century’s so-called “progressive movement.” George Wilhelm Fredrich Hegel was a German philosopher who provide the dialectic argumentation for Karl Marx’s utopianism – i.e., that human nature could be changed only by destroying the surrounding society. [Ref. http://www.renewamerica.com/columns/vernon/120312 ]

“Of the people no more: As Breitbart informs us, Wilson “frowned on democracy,” and “rejected the idea of government by the people, “which he believed should be “replaced by elites who knew better than the masses.” Or, as he intoned, “Men as communities are supreme over men as individuals.”

“The Frankfurt school: Fortunately for America at the time, Wilson and progressivism in general were exceedingly unpopular by the time the former Princeton professor mercifully ended his White House tenure. But for the Marxists – not to worry: Some European Marxist imports would ultimately make their way into our society. The Brown socialists (Nazis) and the Red Socialists (Communists) had battled each other on the streets of Germany during the twenties. When one of these strains of socialism gained power, the other would have to flee. But that gets us ahead of our story.

“Changing Society: Prior to the Nazi takeover, Felix Weil, a young radical Marxist from Frankfort, Germany, organized the Institute for Social Research, quickly dubbed the Frankfort School. (Breitbart defines the group as “really a precursor to [Obama ally] John Podesta’s Center for American Progress.

“The central theme of the “school” was that tearing down society was a pre-condition for the eventual victory of global Marxism; that capitalism has rendered man “week,” which in turn explained why socialism had not come into existence already. (Remember, this was late twenties Europe and North America.) Further the Frankfort School taught that Judeo-Christian morality must be rejected; that “a worldwide overturning of values cannot take place without annihilation of the solid values and creation of new one by the revolutionaries”; and that “critical theory” reflected the Sch. Curriculum.

“Breitbart says Frankfurt School philosopher Max HorkHeimer coined the term “critical theory.” It meaning would “embody the whole corrupt philosophy whose mission was to destroy society and culture…” In fact, Breitbart says “critical theory,” as he taught at Tulane, was “quite literally, a theory of criticizing everyone and everything everywhere.”

“We might add here that “critical theory” as he was taught at Mercer Island High School in Washington State when President Obama’ mother, Stanley Ann Dunham attended it. Instapundit informs us the curriculum included 1 – “rejection of societal norms; 2 – attacks on Christianity, the traditional family; 3- [assigning the] readings of Karl Marx.” That Washington State High School also was “ hotbed of pro-Marxist radical teachers,” and had been cited in testimony before the House Committ. on Un-American Activities…”
