Episode notes
Gradual Capture Through Institutions
- The Fabian Society practices 'gradualism': change institutions slowly rather than by revolution.
- That long strategy aims to capture judiciary, education, family norms, and national sovereignty over generations.
Founders Built Institutions, Not Just Movements
- Founders like George Bernard Shaw and Sidney Webb created institutions rather than staging revolutions.
- They founded the London School of Economics and helped create the Labour Party to embed their ideas in establishment structures.
The Administrative Deep State Advantage
- Fabian influence extends deep into the administrative state, beyond visible party membership.
- Controlling civil service, finance, and judiciary means government policy can be blocked regardless of electoral results.
