E332: The Problem with Marxism with Special Guest Semi Bird

 

E332 Introduction

One of the things I have always tried to do on Basecamp is to speak the truth but also to shine the light in some of the nooks and crannies of our awareness. This I try to do on a personal level as well as the collective/narrative level.

The question I often as is: What challenges to clear seeing are we currently facing? What are the threats and opportunities for WE THE PEOPLE? In America, the primary threat that I see, the one that underlies all other threats, is the long-march through our institutions of the Marxist/Communist agenda. It has become clear that most of our institutions are infested with Marxist and Communist people and ideas.  And once you see it, you can’t unsee it. It is unsettling to see it but awake is better than sleepwalking while your free nation is being taken from the inside.

Today’s interview is with my new friend Semi Bird. We get into the whole Marxist/Socialist/Communist incursion into our American institutions and highlight education in particular.  My sense is that that Marxism quietly snuck up on many Americans but as my guest and I see it, it needs to be looked at, studied, and countered at every turn. The worst thing we can do as Americans is surrender to this agenda- which is Communist/Globalist and deeply anti-American and anti-humanity.

One of the things that characterizes Marxism and thus, Communism is that it incites hatred amongst people (isn’t that interesting), creates and escalates conflicts, and seizes power through violent revolution or subterfuge. To quote a famous Chinese Communist Chiang Kai-Shek “The goal of communism isn’t to solve problems but to expand global contradictions to the greatest extent possible and cause human struggle to continue forever.” At the point where you have a portion of the population that can’t tell the difference between men and women, I would say Communism is succeeding in creating the contradictions to the greatest extent possible. And look at what one of the main goals of Marxism and Communism: perpetual struggle. Sound like the current state of affairs? Is this what we want-stress, struggle, hatred of others, division. Can we wake up from this bad dream in time to save future generations?

Let’s go dialogue with Semi about this most important challenge Americans face: how do we start to shift things back away from the hatred and division that Marxism creates and start to think about what is good for America and Americans again. How do we reclaim our history and our civics from Communist influenced so-called scholars and teachers who have an entirely different agenda than helping children thrive.

It is a big topic and Semi and I take a big swing at it today with more to come I am sure. Enjoy the episode.

E28: The Work of Life Wise Academy

 

E28 Introduction

Listeners of either one of my podcasts will know that the mis-education of our children in our public schools is, to me, one of the great harms done to WE THE PEOPLE.

The current education curriculum in public schools is not only leaving children behind in terms of intellectual development, it is leaving out some of the very teachings that could elevate and save their lives, in terms of how they align themselves. 

There is a deep sense of hopelessness and nihilism that is in much of the Marxist-inspired public education system. It was designed that way. No mention of God or Christ. Nothing inspiring to have the children stand proud of themselves or their heritage.

Never has it been more obvious that this narrative war we have all been living through is a battle for the Soul and the Globalist bulls-eye has been fixated firmly on our children.

Is this what God wants for his children and his chosen nation? I don’t think so and either does my guest today.

Today I have the pleasure of interviewing a deeply principled American. One who is in mission to help our communities and our children.

It is inspiring to hear from Americans of faith that are in action in the very areas we need them. In this case, the education and moral development of our little ones.

Today’s interview is a perfect example of how good Americans and people of faith fight back….one child at a time. Enjoy the episode.

E264: Saving the American Republic

 

E264 Introduction

Wow, well I had a great interview all teed up but President Trump and Elon Musk are moving so fast I had to speak with you solo about this. Can you believe what we are watching? Something right out of the Q drops, is it not? The destruction of the old guard and NCSWIC.

Is any of this ringing a bell? Bueller? Bueller?

I am going to give a bit of reporting to you although many of you are seeing the same videos, tidbits and memes that I am seeing. I will give you my two cents, for what it’s worth. But I am also going to take a look at the 40 thousand ft view and point out some possible timelines from that perspective. Being careful to not pin any dates on anything although at this point and at this speed, do dates really matter anymore? Its happening Basecampers.

I remember hearing President Trump say (and I believe this was also in the Q drops), that the way to defeat a powerful enemy was to prepare quietly and then, when the time was right, strike like the most powerful animal in the jungle. This is exactly what you are seeing right now. We have so much to touch on and by the time I hit “publish”, there will be another dozen things that make your jaw drop in astonishment. No American president has EVER taken such a tactical, hell surgical, approach to cutting the diseased corruption out of the corpse known as the administrative Deep State…

The American Pulse Pilot

Hello welcome to The American Pulse, I’m your host Tony Rezac. This is the show that seeks to listen, express, and amplify the voice of the American people, no matter where you live in this great nation. We are unabashedly pro-humanity, pro-freedom, and pro-America. Welcome and let’s get started!

Hello my fellow Americans, what a time to be alive, isn’t it? Have you noticed? There has been a battle for the Soul of America and who wins this war will impact our children, our grandchildren, and future generations as far as the eye can see.

That is why ordinary Americans, WE THE PEOPLE, as I’m fond of saying have heard the call and risen to the occasion.

Who am I? My name is Tony Rezac and I am the creator, producer, and host of the long-running podast Basecamp for Men. And I am honored and humbled to be your host here at The American Pulse.

This show will amplify what is going to at the grassroots level. What ordinary people, men and women from all walks of life, are seeing and talking about. We will also highlight where we need more involvement. Ways that YOU can make a positive difference in this American Renewal that is unfolding.

Conservatives, Libertarians, Centrists, and Kennedy liberals. We want to talk to and understand all. For in our view, we have much more in common than the MSM would have us believe. It is only the divisive and nasty Marxist/Globalists rhetoric with their dystopian dream of a One World Government and all the noise you hear around this that creates confusion in the human race.

We will offer a clear, heart-felt, honest expression of what Americans dream of and what stands in our way. There has been many of us, from all walks of life, that have been beat down and disenfranchised by politics as usual. There has been a cynicism and resignation that has crept into the American Soul. But this is not our way, is it?

On the American Pulse, we will carry a different message from a different frequency. One that will show us, with God’s good grace, how we can restore our country and, with it, ourselves and our families. There are going to be rapid-fire changes in the months ahead. The American Pulse will be here to help cut through the confusion.

Thank you for giving The American Pulse a listen. If you love the show, please go give us a positive review on Apple podcasts. 2025 here we come!
