Many
Americans have a lacking enthusiasm to involve themselves in
political matters. There are actual reasons behind this dilemma. It's
not because of the new generations personal care for political
matter, no, it is because of how we have presented them, with their
tedious endeavors vs. how we have presented social enjoyments and
pacifism.
Your
average teenager and young adult avoids political matters and
substituted their time for personal benefit and entertainment. This
is evident with the new culture of the young seeking to party more
rather than holding to a political movement or cause. American media
has presented politics to be dull, and depressing, which is not
surprising being it is just a endless fight between two very similar
parties that present themselves to be opposites. However, they have
presented parties, drugs and sex to be escapes from these issues. To
be the only solution to entertainment and enjoyment. However, when it
comes to political issues, those who dodge it will soon make a
comment on it, and when they do, their comments are full of
reactionary views originally influenced to them by the oppressive
capitalist regime. It is not surprising to see the silent majority of
the young listening to the ignorance around them, absorbing it, and
taking it as their own philosophy. While with this, there is the
issue of those who are politically active and who have taken up
positions under the influence of liberalism and conservatism.
Conservatism makes individuals who are already politically active
militant under right-wing philosophy consumed with capitalist
nationalism, and ignorant reactionary understanding of foreign and
domestic policy. Liberalism makes political individuals pacifists
under the philosophy of “coexistence” while preserving and
protecting the abusive capitalist class that oppresses all in the
nation. Along with a lacking understanding of the conditions in which
the very system implements upon them.
For
progress to advance, the young generations will need to face a
political awakening brought from the far-left. Reactionary views,
cultural American hegemony, sexism, racism, individualism,
opportunism, all of it will need to be crushed by the powerful
revolutionary theory of Marxism in order to bring the young
generations in to a understanding of the Marxist analysis when it
comes to the destructive nature of capitalism. For when this is
avoided, the generations will continue to be politically dying, and
the class traitors and enemies of the working class will continue to
hold power.
