One of the more insidious features of Marxism’s manipulation of language is its stigmatization of opposing points of view as some form of mental disorder. Opposition to “gay marriage” is said to be a “sign” of homophobia. Distrusting Islamic terrorists who celebrate 9/11 and shout, “Death to America,” is a “symptom” of Islamophobia. Wanting the federal government to secure our borders and enforce existing immigration law “reveals” underlying xenophobia. Not wanting biological men to force their way into ladies’ locker-rooms and showers suggests that a person “suffers” from dreaded transphobia.

Notice that all these purported psychiatric disorders are categorized as “phobias,” or more plainly, as “irrational fears.” Marxists routinely use loaded medical language not only to demonize or disgrace their foes but also to transform any political disagreement into something that it is not. Respecting marriage as a millennia-long institution that celebrates the bond between one man and one woman has nothing to do with being afraid of homosexuals.
Being prepared to defend yourself against those who want you dead does not mean your worries are unfounded. Insisting that foreigners immigrate to the United States lawfully is entirely rational. Ensuring that your mother, wife, sisters, or daughters are safe from strange (and frequently dangerous) adult men intent on intruding into their private spaces requires selfless courage. Still, because Marxists depend upon distortions of reality to instigate cultural friction and manipulate the masses, opposition to whatever politically expedient wedge issue is currently being used as a battering ram against society must be diagnosed as a psychological abnormality. You could say that Marxists are committed to the lie that opposition to Marxism rests on irrational fear.
Sure, communism murdered over a hundred million people in the twentieth century alone, but that’s no reason to fear an ideology that seeks only to empower the “common man.” Right? I don’t know whether it reveals more about the persistent malevolence of Marxism’s unashamed supporters or the human race’s inexhaustible supply of gullibility that Marx continues to lure willing disciples to further his vile legacy of mass starvation, torture, and death. Marxism is the evil clown lurking in the sewer that reappears every generation to feast on tender human flesh, but almost every college campus in America would insist that such a description is hyperbole stemming from irrational fear. To oppose socialism and communism today because of the murder spree the twin philosophies undertook in the past is Marx-o-phobic and should be treated like any other mental illness.
At least that’s what the psychologists and psychiatrists would say because Marxists took over the mental health profession long ago. It is a well-known observation that wherever Marxists infiltrate, they soon corrupt. Environmental science would not be fixated on the demonstrable lie that human energy consumption is precipitating catastrophic “climate change” if Marxists had not needed a global boogeyman to frighten national populations into embracing a centrally controlled economy. President Trump would not be seated as a defendant in four separate criminal trials and scores of civil suits if Marxist prosecutors and judges were not committed to perverting the rule of law for ideological gain. Schools and employers would not be selecting applicants based on the color of their skin or exotic sexual appetites if DEI, ESG and other Marxist initiatives had not elevated privileged mediocrity over hard work, skill, and merit. Nobody would be so asinine as to call mathematics “racist” if Marx’s civilization-destroying acolytes had not first succeeded in permeating every level of education.
Science and justice are dead because Marxists rise to power only after summarily executing knowledge and truth. Once they have done so, Science works for Marx. It is why the biological tenets of Lysenkoism thrived in the Soviet Union despite their glaring absurdities. It is how “climate change” fearmongers can be wrong about every prediction (and flip-flop between prophecies of a cooling and warming Earth) and still be honored as “experts.” And it is why entire chapters in medical textbooks are written that categorize the slightest opposition to Marxist orthodoxies as indicative of a troubling mental disease.
This makes sense, since communist societies have a long history of imprisoning political dissidents in psychiatric wards as an effectively humiliating alternative to criminally prosecuting ideological rivals. What? You don’t believe in the abolition of private property or that breadlines are the fault of anti-government, capitalist pigs? You must be crazy! Send this lunatic to the nuthouse!
In the former Soviet Union, it was not unusual for a family member to “disappear” one day without any formal notice from the State or for heartbroken relatives to discover only years later that their loved-one had died during “treatment” in an insane asylum. Similar human rights atrocities have occurred in Central and South American communist countries and still occur in communist China today. Marxists are fond of sentencing their enemies to a nightmarish existence in which the body is trapped in a straitjacket and the mind is kept numb with a drip-feed cocktail of tranquilizers and other antipsychotics.
