    Promotion of superstition to protect the ruling class by dividing and diverting the working class is the oldest social engineering existing. Usually religion served in that role (and they still do for huge majority), but XX century seen unprecedented before decline in religiousness and rise in materialism, so the ruling class needed to cook off the new kinds of superstition and promote it hard, that’s why we have so many wacky cults and pseudo-scientific nonsense and this isn’t only for the ignorant masses, i mean just read anything by Dawkins, the guy have a point about traditional religions but his books just ooze spiritual unfulfillment and he’s projecting it over science.

    it is as comrade @[email protected] said, an organized attack on the philosophical basis of marxism. And coupled with liberal encroaching with vulgar materialism in hand and resurgence of religion in socialist circles, a very, very successful one.
