This quote was passed on to me this week. Very timely, seems this quote describes in part the American Democrat Party play book. "Social Justice Warriors" class warfare ect. ect.. among some other things as well.
George Q. Cannon
“A class-war foreseen – Secret organizations are also multiplying in number and increasing in power – a menace and a sign concerning which the Latter-day Saints have had full notice from the beginning. Year by year these organizations increase in magnitude and in boldness, and the difficulty of dealing with them is made more apparent. The relations of employers and employed become more and more strained, even in prosperous and peaceful times, and there is an ever-present threat of outbreak and violence. A general conflict between these classes, such as might occur at any time, would be so dreadful and far-reaching in its effects that no parallel in history could be found for it. Even the rising of slaves against their masters, of which the records of the past furnish us some examples and which is a conflict notoriously cruel and ferocious, gives only a feeble idea as to what this class-war might become because of the strength and organization of the respective parties and the bitterness of feeling which has been engendered.
A social volcano – A thought as to what the future may bring forth in this respect adds another to the many fears which already oppress men’s minds. If to the dread and misgiving which mankind feel as to the fury of the elements be added the feeling that the people of many civilized governments today are walking upon the thin crust of a slumbering social volcano, it will be easy to see how men’s hearts shall fail them and they be found running here and there in the search for safety, which they know not how to find.” (Sept. 15, 1900, Juvenile Instructor 35:616; Gospel Truth – Discourses and Writings of George Q. Cannon, Page 42)
