Wolff Responds: Great Replacement Theory - A Critique 

Everyone needs to hear this message. The TRUTH well spoken. Awesome message!

In a system were everything is for sale, our gov't has to work for the capitalist and wealthy classes. It's a built in structural flaw of Capitalism. This system has to go!

Proff Wolff, hits the nail right on the head. In high tech, the H-1b was used to supercharge immigration to replace us, but he's absolutely correct, they have moved to using labor abroad, more than the H-1b now. Labor abroad is even cheaper. We now add employees from abroad, more rapidly than hire H-1bs.

Mr Wolff brings facts to the debate and immediately disarm "both sides" of the debate with the common sense solution.

excellent take prof wolff. ive been trying to find these same words to describe who is REALLY replacing who. I grew up in the midwest, in areas that really got hurt badly once everything started going overseas. And my family and friends in that area are so easily racebaited they just drink the koolaid, without remembering it was some dude just like them that sold them out, not the person that just got to this country

Just like Warren Buffet said, "there is a class war and we're winning". (Sick that that man didn't receive more flack when Wells Fargo was caught defrauding it's customers. Wouldn't it be nice that if we had a media who shunned criminals instead of glorified their ignobility?)

You are so right my friend the problem is people are picking one side over the other side the Democrats order conservatives.. what they fail to realize is they are both sides of the same coin..

It's amazing how short peoples memories can be. I was born in 1980. I've watched my society do nothing but regress. Going through the old town (while always depressing) has do nothing but decay. We have been cutting taxes and deregulating for the 41 years that I have spent in this horrible world. Now I cannot stand to act in accordance with my society under these conditions. Then I get to absorb the blame for my perpetual state of impoverishment. Every time some maggot minded pragmatist blames a kid for living with their folks forever ignoring the social dynamic which hasn't changed in greater than 41 years. My peers are killing themselves by falling in line. I'm blessed to have a good family (good in the sense of the opposite of evil). So I happen to know that "tough love" isn't love at all. The true nature of love is to give not to take. And loveless abuse this nature. My life is over. Thank you for doing what you can to fight the evil tide Prof. Wolff. I wish I could kick something to you because I've watched you videos for years. And I think it good for people to become enlightened. But I'm a white, working poor, nonreligious pantheist . . . not that my race or theism isn't the issue. It's because I'm not ever going to do what they want of me again. Time is life. And I've already sold too much of it to people whom never appreciated it. Godspeed Dr. Wolff.

Companies MUST reduce cost by reducing wages to stay competitive. That's exactly the problem, and why capitalism has to go.

I've been hearing about the "replacement theory" for at least 35 years by the news sources.

When Fiorina took over HP, I saw the writing on the wall and moved on. The person who replaced me was replaced by someone in India for 2% of my old salary. HP was a great company and a great company to work for. It made superior products and paid its employees well while it made substantial profits. After that "Great Replacement", it made garbage products with a demoralized workforce and huge profits. When I started working for them it was almost impossible to get in because everyone worked there forever and they did their jobs better than anyone else in the industry. Within a couple years after I left, everyone worked there for a year or two as a temp/contractor before the next subcontractor fired everyone, and no one cared how they did their job.

Thank you Professor Wolff. They have also Replaced Government.

The way Wolff helps connects dots is paramount!

“Western civilization is dying because it's tied into an economic system that was decadent a hundred years ago. This System was certainly the calculated creation of a specific minority class. The rise of the manufacturing class was not spontaneous. It is perpetuated beyond the stage of decadence in spite of fits of outrageous disorder. Its seemingly remarkable ability to return from crisis is not proof of natural durability. Rather it is proof of a destructive will to power at any cost.” George Jackson ‘Blood In My Eye’ (1972)

I've been following prof. Woolf for years now , partly because of his usual polite, mellow tone . this angry , rapid fire tone is new to me (from him ) . but i guess it's fitting for a subject that has infuriated so many of us . and about nancy peloci's "we are all capatalists now" well in some asian languages , they have the decency to distinguish between an exclusive "we" and an inclusive one . . .

Thanks for Laying out the Facts Professor Wolff.

Wolff is a consummate "teacher"! Teaching facts as they are; allowing his "students" to teach what THEY learn.

One of the deepest ironies of US capitalism is that they have only focused on crushing wages and not even though of the cost of living in the US. Health care, education, food and housing prices set the cost of labor all made possible through global trade. This consideration was never made when promoting global trade, that business and the rich lost all incentive to give one fig over their own nation.

Beautiful breakdown. I wish was a UMass student so that I would have been able to take one of your classes.

It gets better. My former company outsourced control centres to overseas. These people were, largely, very incompetent. Not all, but the majority. As a reasonably paid worker, they got rid of many local staff. Now they are bringing the jobs back onshore but at reduced wages. A brilliant employer strategy to circumvent redundancy rules.

Capitalists are so good at eating their own that their dinner doesn’t even realize whose menu they are on.

Thank You! I have been thinking the same; the US worker / middle class was replaced long ago. HA!

Whenever I think life is getting too muddled and confusing, I listen to the good professor. It's the economic system that is the problem. End of story.

You finally have a take i agree with mr. Wolfe.

Labor Party Now! Please! Labor Unions / Citizens standing together is the only chance for real change. What would be a better name than Labor Party? Maybe; The Citizens Party?

“Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power” ― Benito Mussolini. From a man that would know a little about it. Divide and rule has always worked well.

Democrats should be repeating this stuff 24/7 every time they're on TV or being interviewed. Of course that would actually involve the democrats supporting working people and not being bought and paid for by corporations so I'm not holding my breath.

Thank you for taking the time to make this video.

"They" want us to believe to a "race" struggle when it's a class warfare, a classic divide and rule. *divide et impera, Phílippos II (King of Macedonia 359-336 BCE).

Thank you, Professor Wolff. Your wisdom is always appreciated.

As someone who lives beside a working waterfront this could not be more true. I've seen and heard of people being turned away from shipwork because, while they wouldn't work such a dangerous job for anything but a decent (not good, just decent) wage, central American immigrants are willing to do the same dangerous jobs for LESS than minimum wage. I want to be clear, this is an EMPLOYER problem not a worker problem. The failure of the labor movement to incorporate immigrants has allowed employers to essentially take exploitation to its furthest tolerable limits while pitting workers against each other using racism and xenophobia as two of thier main offensive weapons against the working class.

Well gollie this was fire 🔥 Thank you Dr.Wolff

Remember what the Neo-Nazis were yelling in Charlottesville?

It just amazes me that most Americans don't realize the two political parties are virtually the same. The only real difference is when it comes to social issues, I understood that back in early high school. Thankfully more & more people are realizing it but it might be too late.

As an IBEW UNION local 332 member I have to second this.

Preach on brother Wolff. Slay them with the truth. Money in politics is the problem and the right wing has been accepting it, as well as many Democrats, while deflecting the blame elsewhere.

An austrian economist fan!1Thank you Rich for your economic work!Your knowledge is needed for a well rounded education in Sound "Thinking" economics!!!

don't forget nafta also led to moving production overseas to east asia and mexico for cheaper labor. this led to the rust belt, etc . also, what do you think of ubi as a solution to automation?

Prof Wolff you are the best teacher !!!!

Great analysis Prof Wolf!

I find that both parties have sold out for their own benefits and our economy has now become a self hoarding economy. More corruption & power with little to do about future gens or well being to solve for the betterment of humanity.

Totally correct. Thank you!

Smash the like button hard on this one & share widely, as oft' said on live streams. Thank You so much, Richard, from me, a CDN.

Spot on commentary as usual! I wish every American would watch this video!

Union strong 💪🏽 stand in solidarity ✊🏽🇺🇸

I absolutely love your content and your perspective on this is apt. Unfortunately as a Jewish person not one person who believes in the replacement theory earnestly will listen to a word you say.

Simply put. Thanks for the clarification

Thanks for your clarification

Thanks, Prof Wolff, for exposing the replacement of workers, but I see a 4th layer of "replacement" besides the 3 you mentioned, which is the replacement of production with non-production of a service based economy or monopoly pricing, corruption, and other market failures!

As always, great content. By the way, your looking good and healthy, Professor. 👍

Mr. Wolff I would be very happy as your on line student, I must say,, you have open my eyes since 2015 when I first was introduced to D@W hear your lecture on socialist for dummies,, I am 61,, anyway I would love you to interview Prof. John Mearsheimer on political science how his American Hegemony relates to economics

I believe you misspoke. The shareholders hold a gun to the board and management time maximize shareholder value as you have observed before. In accounting, we call job loss and tax revenue loss to the government that struggles to fund services "externalities".

Right on.

Right on, Bro. ;)

Brilliant!

Thank You As Always There Professor Richard Wolff.......For taking these "DUMMIES" to task !

This was so needed!!!

3:17 Well...someone is requiring them to do it: the consumer. Why do anti-capitalists consistently miss the single most imporant actor in the free market? It's the consumer making companies drive down costs. And it's not for profit. The average profit margin is 3%, and in any given year across time, about 1/3 of companies operate at a loss. It's the consumer making the companies do it. The consumer is king!

Very well done, as always, Professor Wolff.

You are so right, we love your works.

Wolff is a money God. Thank you for this priceless videos Wolff

Very good video, very good explanation.

Enlightening as usual👍❗️

Great piece on American politics, I would retort though that the "great replacement theory" was actually made for the European stage. What is happening in Europe is that the ancient population of Europe who have lived there since the dawn of time are being ethnically replaced in their homelands by overwhelming waves of mass immigration from Africa and the Middle East. Take the UK as an example....in 1950 London was over 98% white native, a city which can trace its roots and people back at LEAST 1500 years and is now only 35% white British. The same is true for most major cities in England, the native population has been REPLACED by the non native immigrant population from the middle east mainly. This has happened in a shockingly fast time frame, essentially 20 years and if trends continue as they are its highly likely that the native white Brit will be a minority on their own island by 2040. I would argue this has nothing to do with "capitalism" and that there is another force at work here.

So if the introduction of large numbers of ethnically diverse immigrants blunts labor solidarity, should not the left be opposing this? Should not everything be done which can unite the members of the working classes?

I agree with this and you in pretty much everything you say Mr. Wolf. Your videos are very well explained. When you present a video, can you add in a recent bill or two that supports your words, or can someone else? That for me would point in the direction of were I can read and explain to others. Thanks.

Great clarity as always, especially about the (Corporate) Demz

Excellent analysis from the master, prof Wolff

Tell it like it is, brother. Thank you.

1 track mind. Workers unite!

Great stuff !

Richard Wolf telling the truth, as always.

Unfortunately, only few can think. Politicians won't think and just to make noise

I could listen to this guy for hours.

I don't know how relevant "white" and "male" are. Sex and racial equality has existed for decades now. Jews and Asians make more money than whites, and females make at least as much money as men before they drop out of the workforce to have babies. Immigration absolutely drags down wages, which is why corporations and business love it. You should also take about it from a government perspective. Governments love it from an economic perspective as well. An immigrant comes in, usually, at working age (and often leave when they retire)-- whereas people born here have to be supported for 18 years before they start contributing.

Repeatedly, political and cultural issues need to be examined by the simple adage of "follow the money".

Good video.

I would love to hear you talk with Mr mirasheimer the political science professor on economic system based on his theory of American hegemony,,

So what's happening that turning the poor and working-class against each other and if he's working greatly as you can hear in your comments that certain people are fighting each other for the same jobs.. I'm glad I work on myself working for yourself is the way to go..

Very well explained

He has been speaking on the top of his secrets so we also talk to others in the topic at about themselves adore

Blaming poor immigrants is the OLDEST trick in the book.

AMEN. Lived the consequences of what your talking about my whole working life.

This is awesome.

There is good truth here. However, it is only part of the truth. Since we have a consumption-driven economy, money is not simply made by cutting costs (that is one piece), but also by increasing consumption. One of the intentions of the mass immigration in the West is to keep the economies propped up with more and more and MORE consumption. The more people that are brought in, the MORE consumption is had. It's just simple numbers. The third point is that just because some people have a profit motive (which is true), it doesn't mean that there aren't other people with a hatred motive that share the same goals. With all of the blatant, anti-white propaganda being spread the past five years in common culture -- in particular the news media, it is hard to believe that people can't see an agenda. (Some like to keep their heads in the sand? Too controversial? Not enough courage 7:41?) And the fact is, many who comprise "The Capitalists" -- as Prof. Wolff calls them -- have a 2,000 year old grudge that dates back to Titus, and this is openly admitted if anyone is willing to look. We see just as much of this "replacement" in quasi-socialist countries in Europe where, in many cases, the "replacements" are not even put to work, but just put on government assistance, so they're not even undercutting labor costs. Either way, anyone who supports policies of mass immigration while knowing that it puts downward pressure on wages while increasing the cost of housing is basically a tool of "The Capitalists". So if you're not supporting immigration restrictionists, you're on their side, and you're working for their goals. And this is what it means to say that we don't have a nation: "the elite" view the country as just one big giant shopping mall, not a nation of people with which they share kinship. And they extract the wealth of the country (both resources and public treasury) until it collapses, then they get on their jets and fly to live in some other country. Because they don't identify as American -- or in the case of Europe, they don't identify as Swedish or British or German -- and they have no bonds of brotherhood to the people.

The US has a one party system----MONEY!

Combine what is shared in this video with what Barbara F. Walter says on how civil wars began and get terrified about the future.

As a white male Christian, I think it’s high time that I was “replaced”. My only gripe is that I won’t be able to move out of my parents’ home by my 75th birthday next month, as planned. Oh, well, maybe at eighty...

PREACH!!!!

preach

Great Replacement Theory is true in so far that in a globalized world eventually there will be no races, only Earthlings. This, I believe, will be a wonderful development in the evolution of our species.

FACTS 💯💯💯💯

Scream sir scream. Scream for us. We dont have a voice at all. I will pray for you.

Love the content and agree with the money mechanics being shared. DISLIKE the superimposition over right/left, democrat/republican, us/them. I'm a disgustigan btw, (both democrat & republican). By doing this it not only polarizes people it obscures the real divide. MONEY is one root, (of many) that generates POWER. And we know "power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely". SO, the real divide IS NOT between democrats and republicans. Just sayin, Honest.

Hard to have kids when everything is expensive, you’re not getting paid well relative to costs. Your communities that don’t exist any more because you are forced to move away from your support network, you’re being overworked, in a society, where almost everything we do increases mental health, concerns, and where almost everything we eat and drink and consume is full of God knows what because it’s cheaper and those companies had the standard boards paid for a long time ago. Yeah, sounds like a really really promising environment to have lots of children.

Exactly and that's why you shouldn't blame immigrants for taking lower paying jobs YOU SHOULD BLAME THE EMPLOYERS

A few years ago, Trump was embarassed by the Chinese, who he invited to set up a high tech factory in Wisconsin or Minnesota, I think. The Chinese backed out of the deal because they said the labor costs were too high. They suggested that the government should subsidize health care, housing and other things like they do in China, so they could pay their workers less. This was an eye opener for me.

Dead on balls accurate 👌
