Anyone who studied American history knows the story of the Puritans. They were the elite of Massachusetts and New England, and after the Civil War, became the WASP elite of the United States. They still are the elite of the United States today, but they are now secular atheists. Those who wish to dive into origins, and how they morphed into the Ivy League colleges, are encouraged to look into the works of Mencius Moldbug, whom anyone can easily find with the Google search engine.
Now, as secular atheists, they still hold on to their old culture, but the expression of it today is a Decadent Calvinism devoid of Christianity. We will look at the Five Points of Calvinism and comment on how it is used today among the American elites to rule the world, and impose a strange world order using oppression, violence, intimidation, and murder. One strange and identifying feature of their rule is known popularly as Virtue Signaling. We shall speak in some depth about their degenerate theology and connect this with strange modern American imposition and rule, and discuss some facets including Virtue Signaling.
The common way to remember Calvinist theology is the acronym TULIP: Total Depravity, Unconditional Election, Limited Atonement, Irresistible Grace, and Perseverance of the Saints. We will discuss each topic in this essay.

Total means that everything about man is fallen, corrupt and contaminated with sin. This includes his will, body, mind, heart, etc. It is one reason we get ill and die. Thus, the sinner needs to be regenerated throughout his entire being by the power off Holy Spirit, which changes the heart. However, even this cannot completely rid us the consequences of sin, so we have to wait until after death to be completely glorified in the complete elimination of sin.
This is the Calvinist doctrine of Original Sin.
What distinguishes Calvinist theology from tradition theology is the word "total." For Calvinists, man is rotten to the core. My personal thoughts generally go toward the concept of man being made in God's image to be in contradiction to such an extreme view as this doctrine.
This actually explains a lot of the use of guilt among this sect. The secular version of this doctrine would claim that we all have hidden biases like racism, sexism, etc, of which we are not even conscious of. So we are evil until we "confess" our guilt and demonstrate salvation through helping the starving kids in Africa, or saving the whales, or saving the environment. These strange acts of contrition bring the sinner toward secular salvation, which is necessary because everyone is Totally Depraved! Are you supportive of the environment? Minorities? If not, you are not saved from your evil depraved nature, and you are an evil person! You must demonstrate your salvation from Total Depravity by these public acts proving you are not one of the Depraved Ones (or deplorables, or rednecks, or racists, etc).
In conclusion, everyone is an Evil, Depraved piece of garbage, until the secular gods show you the way to salvation through strange rituals of involving questionable charitable acts toward people and things far, far away.
So, we can see how this Christian doctrine, when used for secular purposes, is used as a weapon of intimidation and social pressure to conform at the risk of being ostracized because one is considered Depraved, i.e., a "Deplorable," a redneck, or a "racist" in modern political terms.
This doctrine means that God has chosen some for salvation, and some for hell, and there is nothing either group can do to affect this Election. The Chosen Ones are chosen by God for no good reason. the damed ones are chosen to be damned by God for no good reason. God, in his mightiness and sovereignty, just made the choice! Also, since you are a Depraved sinner anyway, you ought to be glad that God flipped his coin and saved you, you lucky little bastard!
So God chose who would be saved and who would be damned and nobody can change this. How do we know who is saved? You better show people if you are saved, or they will think you are one of the Depraved sinners and not one of the Chosen Ones! Are you a Chosen One? Well, you better show people you are one of the Chosen Ones, or else! How do you show this? Well, through wealth, charity, etc. But wait! Really? Yes, really. Whatever the Chosen Ones say is an outward sign of salvation is what you need to show to prove you are a Chosen One also.
In secular terms, this can turn evil really fast. If a group of these people determine that they are the Chosen Ones, and everyone else is damned to hell, a sinner, a deplorable, a racist, or whatever, what then? The Damned are to keep their mouths shut and stay away lest the Chosen Ones choose to punish the Damned with destruction, and even death! The Damned do not even matter in terms of decision making and politics since they are depraved and evil, so once they prove they are damned, we can completely write them off.
The implication here is that we can write the Damned off as Subhuman. I will write that again, the implication here is that we can write the Damned off as Subhuman. Again, if people demonstrate that they are Damned, then they are Depraved, and Totally and utterly evil creatures. So, when the Chosen Ones designate certain people as Damned, they no longer matter. Anything can happen to them, and well, they deserved it because they are Depraved and evil. Do you see where this is going? Do you hear echoes of this in the political speech of the United States? So, if someone is designated as a Deplorable or a "racist" this means that if they get killed, then they got what they deserved, and we should look the other way because another sinner got what he deserves! Those evil depraved sinners! They want to destroy the environment! They want to oppress [insert popular minority here]!
So, with the Chosen Ones as the rulers of the United States, if you get on their bad side, even if you are a good person, you will be called a nasty name like "deplorable" or "racist" or something that designates you as one of the evil Depraved sinners damned to a secular hell. After that, if you die, they do not give a crap about you, you damned sinner! You can hear the echo of National Socialism here, and its potential nastiness. Use your imagination, and you can see where this leads to the killing fields. These rulers of the world can kill millions if these millions are Depraved sinners.
We should all tremble that Secular Puritans rule the United States and they have nuclear weapons at their disposal. These are really scary people, when they write off any group as Depraved. Nuclear holocaust? They do not give a shit.
For this doctrine, Jesus dies only for the Chosen Ones. He died for specific sins of specific sinners.
With Limited Atonement, we find a restriction again, as is becoming the pattern in Calvinism. So, the Cross, the death of Jesus, and everything was done for the Elect, and not for anyone else. One can see how anyone other than the Elect are essentially non-persons. They do not matter in any meaningful sense. Even Jesus, the Son of God himself did not die for those Depraved unregenerate sinners. Perhaps in this view, Jesus did not give a damn about the Damned people. Screw them! They are lucky God lets them live their wretched lives!
In secular terms for a Degenerate Calvinism, how does this work out in politics and society?
We now see a pattern. Degenerate Calvinism not only separates the Elites from the non-elites, it dehumanizes the non-elites. Is there any noblesse oblige? Are not the elite of every society supposed to act in the best interests of the less fortunate of the particular society?
As we dive further into this strange theology in its now degenerate form, one sees increasingly that if one falls on the wrong side of the line between saved and damned, one has no standing or status as a citizen, and in some case, no status as a human being. You see more speech codes designed to keep Deplorables (or racists or rednecks, etc) out of political discussions, you see targeted lists of "dangerous" groups from various paranoid websites, you see harmless things deemed anathema like the confederate flag, and many many other harmless symbols that the Faux Elites use to separate the damned from the saved Chosen Ones.
One strange thing, is when you block off legitimate people from political participation, you get wild events like the French Revolution, mass killings of elites in revolutions, et cetera, as people without voices will turn to violence when things get intolerable. Seriously speaking, these Degenerate Puritans are playing with fire - gun fire and the guillotine. They are fools for taking their strange theology this far and this extreme. This will be their downfall, unless they repent.
Irresistible Grace continues the theme of separating the damned from the saved. The saved ones are forced to serve god. This means that those who are saved are doing something that demonstrates they are chosen by god by force to be the saved of the world. So, if they demonstrate outwardly that they are the saved Chosen Ones, it means god drafted them into his army, so to speak, and they are untouchable for that reason, among many other reasons. There is no free will whatsoever between the saved and the damned. Thus, it darkens the world among the damned as Hopeless. It brightens the world of the Saved to the point of an insane Hubris, Pride and Vanity, in its secular and degenerate form we see today among the Elites of the United States.
To elaborate, if you are one of the saved, you are saved forever, and you are drafted into the army of god, so to speak, and cannot change this. If you are the damned, you are hopeless, and can never change your state, and will burn in hell for all eternity, for sure, and without any hope of salvation.
Let that sink in for a moment. Did you go to an Ivy League school? Then you are among the saved - forever! Did you not go to an Ivy League school? Then you are damned forever! Again, let this evil wicked idea sink into your head. This, my friends is Degenerate Puritanism. It is Degenerate Calvinism.
Again, this doctrine continues - and deepens - the separation between the saved and the damned. If you are saved, you are guaranteed by god and by the Bible, that god will keep you safe until the end! You are guaranteed to win! God will never let you become damned, and he will demonstrate this through you showing off your Virtues - Virtue Signaling. You demonstrate this by feeding children in Africa, saving whales on the beach, and making sure that tap water does not contain the piss of the Redneck Deplorables! The Earth is so fragile, and it needs the help of the Chosen Ones to protect it against those damned Deplorables! The Chosen Ones will win against the evil, depraved Rednecks! The Chosen Ones will triumph over those crazy Russians! It is guaranteed by god himself! You can never lose if you attended an Ivy League school! You will always win!
So, tell me the last time you noticed anyone in the Ivy League that was thrown in jail. Tell me the last time.

Ye sorcerers!Thou hast called judgement upon thy heads and upon the heads of thy children!Weep for ye will be utterly destroyed with flame and sword!

Unconditional Election
This doctrine means that God has chosen some for salvation, and some for hell, and there is nothing either group can do to affect this Election. The Chosen Ones are chosen by God for no good reason. the damed ones are chosen to be damned by God for no good reason. God, in his mightiness and sovereignty, just made the choice!

Side Note: At this point, things are getting a bit weird, as it usually does in a lot of Protestant theology. There is always a lot of shuffling about with, "Let me explain what this means," or "in other words," or something to the effect that this does not mean what it plainly says, but this is how to look at it, etc. Theology is not easy, but there is a lot of forcing the issue and forcing scriptural interpretations into a specific form, and even the attempt to argue logically, and in a proof-text manner to get a point to fit scripture and vice versa. This is of course, insane. We Westerners are idiots when we interpret theology in this manner.
I assert the following: spirituality is never to be debated, and neither is scripture. It is only to be explained, where the two communicating have had the same spiritual experience. Spirituality is an experience. Only those who have experienced the Christian initiation and mystery can speak about it to each other. The Trinitarian doctrine was not argued using logic and proof-texting. Rather, men who had the Christian experience came together in common and expressed their experiences in words corresponding to the Spiritual experience. Those who did not understand what they were saying were deemed heretics, since their experience claim is called into question if they did not get the Trinity. The Trinity is a lived experience, and the foundation of all existence for the Christian. If someone does not intuitively get the Trinity, then they have either not had a Spiritual experience at all, or the experience was of a different faith like that of Judaism, Islam, or any other religion with a Spiritual experience. The Trinity is the expression of the Christian experience. Modalism, Arianism, and all other heresies were rejected because they do not reflect the specific Christian Spiritual experience of the divine.
