Cloward and Piven were radical leftist professors at Columbia University that mentored Barry Sotero, who later became President Barack Obama. They created a strategy that bears their name, which was intended to “force political change leading to societal collapse through orchestrated crises.”
This is literally the playbook that is happening before our eyes.
It’s a multi front war that is all meant to come to a head, and if I were to pick an arbitrary date I would see the ultimate timeline is sometime before 2030 since that is the deadline for the great reset…
Background
In the annals of political strategies, the Cloward-Piven Strategy stands out for its radical approach and controversial implications. Conceived in the 1960s by sociologists Richard Cloward and Frances Fox Piven, this strategy sought to force political change, potentially leading to societal collapse, through orchestrated crises. This blog post aims to dissect the Cloward-Piven strategy, exploring its origins, methodology, criticisms, and its alleged influence on contemporary political movements.
Historical Context and Development:
Richard Cloward and Frances Fox Piven were professors at Columbia University’s School of Social Work when they developed their eponymous strategy. Published in “The Nation” in 1966, their article “The Weight of the Poor: A Strategy to End Poverty” laid the groundwork for what would become a much-debated political tactic. The 1960s was a decade marked by social upheaval and radical political thought, and Cloward and Piven’s strategy was reflective of the era’s progressive activism.
The Strategy in Detail:
At its core, the Cloward-Piven strategy advocated for overloading the public welfare system to precipitate a crisis that would lead to a replacement of the welfare system with a national system of “a guaranteed annual income and thus an end to poverty.” Cloward and Piven believed that this could be achieved by mobilizing the poor to enroll in welfare programs, thereby overwhelming city and state governments and triggering a systemic breakdown.
Reception and Criticism:
The strategy was met with mixed reactions. It was embraced by some on the left as a revolutionary approach to combat poverty, while others, including Michael Tomasky, criticized it as “wrongheaded and self-defeating.” Critics argued that the strategy underestimated the resilience of the system and the potential negative backlash against the poor and the welfare system.
Impact and Legacy:
Cloward and Piven claimed that their strategy influenced the expansion of welfare rolls in the 1970s, though it didn’t lead to the establishment of a guaranteed annual income. Critics like political scientist Robert Albritton challenged this assertion, offering alternative explanations for the increase in welfare caseloads. Commentators such as John McWhorter have critiqued the strategy for its unintended consequences, particularly its impact on work ethics and societal attitudes towards welfare.
Contemporary Relevance and Concerns:
In modern political discourse, some conservative commentators and thinkers have argued that the Cloward-Piven strategy is being surreptitiously employed by progressive politicians and activists to undermine capitalism and traditional societal structures. They point to policies and situations like unfettered immigration, escalating national debt, and the expansion of welfare programs as evidence of this strategy in action. However, these claims are often met with skepticism and counter-arguments, highlighting the contentious nature of this theory in current political debates.
Conclusion:
The Cloward-Piven strategy remains a subject of intense debate. While some view it as a cunning blueprint for societal change, others dismiss it as a political myth, overstated in its efficacy and impact. Regardless of one’s stance, the discussion surrounding the Cloward-Piven strategy serves as a critical reminder of the complexities and potential consequences inherent in political and social activism. It challenges us to consider the delicate balance between advocating for change and safeguarding the stability and integrity of societal systems.
