Mark's Opening Remarks - 7/22/25

‘On Power’ discusses negative power, which is defined as coercion, control, and force, acting as the antithesis to individual liberty, consensual government, and civil society. It rejects biblical teachings of individual sovereignty and Enlightenment principles of distributed power, favoring centralized authority as seen in ideologies like Marxism, fascism, and authoritarian democracy. Wokeism is a modern authoritarian tool that enforces specific language and behavior, punishing non-conformity with social and professional consequences. Negative power dehumanizes individuals, viewing them as part of a collective to serve the ruling class or state, undermining personal well-being and autonomy. We need to confront and debate negative power to protect liberty and representative government.
