I would agree with Bezmenov’s analysis as far as it pertains to the effects of “liberal” (especially European “liberal”) “ideology” (in quotes, because it can rather be considered a lack of one). But, to take it a step further, and suggest a conspiracy, especially such long-term and large is completely baseless and smacks of McCarthyism. The answer is usually simpler and even banal, and can be directly observed in other countries. It has to do with quality of life. As I’ve previously quoted someone (though don’t know who, help me out someone, I think it was Newsweek or Time article), the difference between Americans and Europeans is that Americans believe no one, while Europeans believe in nothing. Though a big generalization, I find to be cutting right to the heart of the matter. It seems that this applies
American “liberals” as well.
