Ramaswamy: ‘Woke Regime = Hostile Occupiers’ à la Vichy France
The United States is currently engaged in a fierce internal conflict, described by presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy as a “cold civil war.” In an interview released today, Ramaswamy compares the woke movement to a hostile occupying power, drawing parallels to Germany’s occupation of France during World War II. He warns that if this war is lost, tyranny will prevail, and the nation will be stripped of its freedoms.
Ramaswamy argues that the pursuit of forced equality of outcomes, a key demand of cultural Marxists, inevitably leads to totalitarianism. He asserts that true freedom allows for group differences in preferences and talents, while forced equality can only be achieved through coercion.
Ramaswamy goes on to highlight the alarming parallels between the woke movement and Stalinist tactics. He points to the treatment of the January 6 “insurrectionists” by the Biden justice system as evidence of the potential for gulags in America. While physical gulags may not exist yet, Ramaswamy argues that the woke Left employs other totalitarian tactics such as censorship, shaming, spying, and employment termination to silence dissenters.
Ramaswamy expresses concern that conservative Americans are hesitant to defend the nation’s founding principles due to fear of smears and attacks. He highlights the Democrats’ efforts to deprive Republicans of due process and legal defense, emphasizing the weaponization of the financial system and the practice of law against those who oppose the woke tyranny.
In addition to discussing the broader cultural war, Ramaswamy shares his thoughts on fellow presidential candidate Ron DeSantis and criticizes Nikki Haley. He accuses Haley of being a RINO (Republican In Name Only) and questions her consistency in addressing issues such as the Black Lives Matter movement. Ramaswamy aligns himself with DeSantis and promises to pardon former President Donald Trump on his first day in office, highlighting DeSantis’ failure to make a similar commitment.
Ramaswamy acknowledges that many Republican politicians are reluctant to acknowledge the ongoing war for fear of facing harsh truths. However, he believes that failing to confront these truths will result in the loss of the country. He emphasizes the need to dismantle the administrative state and eliminate government agencies that promote anti-American ideologies, such as the Department of Education. Ramaswamy pledges to release a list of “woke generals” who will be fired if he is elected president.
