THE ELITES LOATHE THE IDEA THAT THE U.S. CONSTITUTION RESTS POWER IN THE HANDS OF THE PEOPLE.

It has become a common observation that a pernicious agenda—sometimes called Progressive, “woke,” or “equity based”—has spread throughout American society. Every aspect of life and culture—from schooling, to television, to the workplace, and to sports—is now suffused with this program. 

The agenda has multiple overt aims, including the rectification of historical racial injustice by deconstructing legacy notions of merit and the value of work, now redefined as the values of white privilege. It seeks to undo segregated residential patterns by altering the political geography of the country, concentrating the population in dense urban areas, reversing “white flight” by eliminating the suburbs that have caused so much harm. It plans to undermine the traditional family structure by cultivating confusion about gender norms and sexuality among American children. It aims to end the system of punishment for violating the law by redefining crime and “reimagining” the function of the police in order to turn them into enforcement agents for socio-political standards rather than protectors of people and property. And it seeks to end the meaning of “America” as a nation by dissolving the difference between citizen and foreigner.

These are all familiar tendencies in modern life—we hear people complain generally about them on social media or cable news all the time—even if we don’t necessarily connect them or see them as part of a unified, revolutionary effort to change America. Seth Barron’s WEAPONIZED proves exactly how the Left is waging war on the American people by attacking specific institutions of the American way of life, essentially sucking all power up the chain, away from the people and into the hands of a managerial, administrative class that has its own vision for the future of the country.

This elite class wants control over everything. It is intolerable for them that any corner of American life is being run contrary in any way to the totalizing, even totalitarian, vision they have of our society. 

The elites loathe the idea that the U.S. Constitution rests power in the hands of the people, and that states and localities are reserved certain key rights. Our historical system enshrines self-rule—the principle that communities comprised of self-regulating subjects can govern themselves best—while the Left believes that the people who don’t live somewhere are the best equipped to set the rules there.

This is a war against the sovereignty of the American people, and the hour is late.
