Note From The DUM News: After coming across a tweet from James Lindsay this morning (@ConceptualJames), I was amazed to see someone else arriving at conclusions I’ve been advocating for years regarding Kamala Harris. In crafting this article, I draw significantly from James’s insights and blend them with my own. It’s important to give credit to James for his bold claims and factual analysis of Kamala Harris.
OPINION: Kamala Harris, the current Vice President of the United States, and illegitimate candidate for President, is often portrayed as a symbol of progress, breaking barriers and advancing social justice. However, her words, policies, and underlying philosophy tell a different story—one rooted in socialist ideals that can be traced back to her upbringing and family influence, particularly her father’s Marxist beliefs.
When Kamala Harris frequently repeats the phrase “to see what can be, unburdened by what has been,” she is echoing a deeply esoteric ideology rooted in Marxism and, by extension, Luciferian thought. This statement, which seems benign at first glance, is not just a catchphrase. It’s a coded message that resonates with those who understand its true meaning. Harris’s rhetoric isn’t new; it’s steeped in a Marxist tradition that aims to transform society by rejecting traditional values and historical contexts to pursue a utopian vision—a vision fundamentally rooted in socialism.
Kamala’s Marxist Background
To understand why this phrase carries such weight, one must consider Harris’s family background. Her father, Donald Harris, was an outspoken Marxist academic whose ideological leanings played a significant role in shaping Kamala’s worldview. Donald Harris’s career was marked by his commitment to Marxist theory, and his beliefs significantly influenced Kamala Harris’s political and ideological foundation. The connection between her father’s communist ideology and her political outlook is clear in the way she speaks about societal transformation.
Marxism, at its core, seeks to “unburden” society from its past—specifically, from the structures and systems that have defined human civilization, such as capitalism, class, and traditional morality. The Marxist dream is to create a society free from these historical burdens, a society where what “can be” is fully realized, unshackled by the constraints of what “has been.”
The Esoteric Meaning Behind “What Can Be”
The phrase “to see what can be, unburdened by what has been” is deeply esoteric, a concept often misunderstood as merely inspirational or forward-looking. However, the term “esoteric” here refers to something hidden—an ideology concealed within layers of symbolism and coded language. What seems like a harmless slogan is actually an expression of Marxist-Leninist doctrine, couched in Gnostic mysticism and, ultimately, Luciferian imagery.
In Marxist theory, the goal is to transcend the historical conditions that have defined society—capitalism, class structures, and traditional values. Marx himself articulated this when he wrote, “The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles.” The objective of communism, as outlined by Marx, is to move society forward into what “can be” (a communist utopia), liberated from what “has been” (the historical conditions of class antagonism). Harris’s language mirrors this exact sentiment.
This notion is not just theoretical. It’s a Gnostic awakening—an ideological shift that, once embraced, supposedly frees the individual from the constraints of the past. It’s the same principle that underlies the broader Marxist agenda and various other revolutionary movements throughout history.
The Luciferian Connection
The idea of “unburdening” oneself from historical constraints to achieve a higher state of being also ties into Luciferian themes. In Christian theology, Lucifer’s rebellion against God was a revolt against the perfect order—a desire to “see what can be, unburdened by what has been.” Lucifer, in his pride, sought a new reality where he could define his own rules, free from divine authority. This is precisely the kind of societal rebellion Marxists envision, where history, tradition, and established norms are cast aside in favor of a new social order.

Harris’s phrasing is more than just political rhetoric; it’s an incantation rooted in these age-old revolutionary ideas. Whether intentionally or not, she channels the same ideological undercurrents that have driven some of the most destructive movements in human history.
Marxism’s Vision of “What Can Be”
Karl Marx, in both his Communist Manifesto and Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts, repeatedly emphasizes the idea of transcending human self-estrangement through the abolishment of private property and the dissolution of class distinctions. He envisioned a society where humanity is “unburdened” by the oppressive forces of history, liberated into a utopian state. The language Harris uses is a modern reiteration of this Marxist dream.

In Marxist theology, what “has been” is humanity’s historical conditions—capitalism, religion, and traditional social structures. Marx’s revolutionary philosophy aims to awaken the masses to their true socialist nature, enabling them to “see what can be” once they are free from these constraints. Harris’s rhetoric directly channels this vision.
Connections to Queer Theory and Critical Race Theory
This esoteric ideology doesn’t stop with Marxism; it extends into contemporary movements like Queer Theory and Critical Race Theory (CRT). For example, Queer Theory, a form of neo-Marxism, often speaks of a “queerness” that is not yet realized—an idealized state that exists beyond the current reality. It’s a horizon of potentiality, a place where one can “see what can be, unburdened by what has been.” The same concept is evident in CRT’s focus on antiracism, which imagines a society liberated from the historical conditions of racial injustice.

Harris’s message, then, is part of a broader leftist agenda that seeks to deconstruct existing societal structures, from capitalism to gender norms, in pursuit of a utopian vision. The underlying message is clear: society must be “unburdened” by the past to move forward into a new, idealized reality.
Historical Precedents: The French and Communist Revolutions
The sentiment Harris expresses has been the ideological driving force behind some of the most catastrophic revolutions in history. During the French Revolution, radical factions sought to create a new society, complete with a new calendar, new government, and a complete break from the past. They wanted to “see what could be, unburdened by what has been.” The result was widespread chaos, tyranny, and bloodshed—a far cry from the utopia they envisioned.
The same mentality drove the Bolsheviks in Russia, Pol Pot in Cambodia, and Mao in China. All sought to create a society free from historical burdens, only to plunge their nations into poverty, oppression, and mass murder. These revolutions were all predicated on the belief that society could be completely reborn if only it were unshackled from the past. Harris’s ideology is a modern echo of these disastrous experiments.
The Great Reset and the Global Agenda
Today, the phrase “to see what can be, unburdened by what has been” is also reflected in global movements like the Great Reset, led by the World Economic Forum. The goal is to “reset” society by discarding traditional economic models and focusing instead on stakeholder capitalism and “wellbeing.” This is another iteration of the same utopian dream—a world free from the historical conditions of capitalism and individual achievement. Harris’s rhetoric aligns seamlessly with this agenda.

A Dangerous Vision
Kamala Harris’s seemingly innocuous phrase is loaded with dangerous implications. It’s a Marxist-Leninist incantation, rooted in the same ideological framework that has led to untold human suffering. By invoking the idea of a society “unburdened by what has been,” Harris is signaling her allegiance to a worldview that seeks to dismantle the very foundations of Western civilization.
Her father’s Marxist beliefs are not just a historical footnote; they are the key to understanding her political philosophy. As she continues to push for policies that align with this esoteric vision, it’s crucial to recognize the ideological roots and the potential consequences. History has shown us time and again that these utopian visions, when put into practice, lead not to liberation but to tyranny and despair. The true nature of “what can be” under such a vision is not the promised utopia, but a nightmarish reality we would do well to avoid.
