How Latin American Political Discourse Is Dominated by the Left

We have been living in deceit for the last century. We have been led to believe that humanity has been split into a struggle between the left and the right when the truth is that except the United States, the world has been dominated almost entirely by the international left and its meta-narratives.

Socialism has won and continues to win in different places because its discourse has permeated deeply, and socialists have managed to manipulate the world narrative with their role as victims in a heroic struggle against “malevolent capitalism.” None of this has been by happenstance. Schools of thought, the media, universities, celebrities, intrusion into all the cultural arenas of life, and many interest groups are responsible for this.

The left of today is far from that left that opposed the extreme monarchical powers of late 18th century France. In fact, if I had been born at that time, I would have been of the left because that left was the one that opposed the absolutism of monarchs and aristocracies, the tyrannies, and the conditions of no social leverage that were dominated by what was then called the conservative right.

Today, the roles have been completely reversed. The left wants to dominate each and every aspect of individual life. Its collectivism and absolute domination of all the means of production is not at all different from the monarchies of centuries ago when all power was in the hands of a small group of aristocrats, and all other human beings had to kneel before them without the possibility of progress. Today, the liberal right is proposing that the state’s role should be limited and its powers restricted; the means of production should be democratized through the advancement of private enterprise and the possibilities of development and progress for all individuals. However, the socialist doctrine has persistently imposed itself, and as we have warned, nothing has been by happenstance.

Throughout history, these thought laboratories have even managed to distort collectivist totalitarianism to the right of the ideological equation, further encouraging their discourse as victims. Thus, they turned Hitler’s National Socialism and Mussolini’s fascism into “right-wing” movements when in reality, both were extreme socialists. Hitler, in his book Mein Kampf, established that his movement was aimed at capturing the youth of the extreme left. In fact, according to Hitler, he was the true socialist, and Marx was no more than an instrument of international Jewish capitalism. And Mussolini was a member of the Italian Socialist Party for 15 years before being expelled for calling for participation in the war, which was when he formed the Fascist militias with which he would later confront his former party colleagues.
