Ah, the great separation(s). When we forgot how to save seeds and plant. And it ends when we remember how to save seeds and plant, to tie our cycles to something actual, like the sun and moon.

This schism you speak of is tied to many things; here are 3 I see..

-Shoes, for instance.....take off your (rubber bottomed) shoes and get your feet on some soil or grass or moss, as close to on the earth as you can. Your electrical charge will be grounded, viewable on a meter. This 'always shoes' thing is part of the great separation, and a leading cause of disease according to some. You can put your shoes back on afterwords. Poof goes the separation. You can even buy special grounding shoes or make your own.

-The initial de-education of the child, because the parents are gone to work both, and the school is the babysitter. Being made to sit in rows and raise our hand to speak does not make for humans that can continue to evolve, as far as I have experienced. It does seem to train us to sit and watch tv, though. Or just to sit and watch. I know there are better schools now, but I am what is left from someone educated publicly from 1970-1992.

-That you can buy health. You cannot buy health, or we would be the healthiest nation in the world.

So many separations, only one reality, one actuality, in total? What's your alls ideas re how and why our belief systems get separated from reality, how do you fix that?

The end goal of cultural Marxism is precisely destruction and so it is hardly a critique to point that out. The institutions of Western European culture were felt to be inimical to the concentration of power in the hands of progressives, so a movement was created to destroy them. The tools are diverse: post-modern discourse to deconstruct the Enlightenment rationalism, gender theory to attack the family, critical theory and its progeny to impugn existing laws, collective racial guilt to stultify opposition and decry success in the free market, and finally the many, many attacks on free speech such as speech codes, claimed victimization by speech, safe spaces, mansplaining, etc.

A carefully realized dream for how progressive power will be realized is not necessary. In fact, defining one is a hindrance as it's description would be subject to the selfsame advanced forms of criticism invented for postmodern deconstruction. Suffice it to say that once power is concentrated in the hands of the self-anointed correct people, the already accomplished dissolution of civil liberties will prevent any criticism of whatever they choose to impose.

We are very nearly at that point now. Cultural Marxism has been merely a stalking horse for whatever posterity will call the emerging system. A sort of post-human global surveillance fascism.

"To what degree is the bias in your search engine controlling the degree to which you are even capable of being informed."…this would make a great bumper sticker.
