Lyndon LaRouche was a Statesian reactionary who claims to be a "socialist." He was born on September 8, 1922 in Rochester, New Hampshire and died on February 12, 2019.

LaRouche's wife, Helga Zepp-LaRouche, was inspired by her husband's ideas and founded the Schiller Institute as a result.[1]

LaRouche has amassed a community after him, the followers are known as LaRouchites. LaRouche people or organisations include Daniel Burke[2], Helga Zepp-LaRouche, and the Schiller Institute. Patriotic socialists also follow LaRouche to some degree, with people mentioned like Infrared and Jackson Hinkle.[3]

Controversies

Conspiracy theories

LaRouche is well known to be a conspiracy theorist and actively uses conspiracy theories as justification for criticism of ideologies.[4][5]

Homophobia

LaRouche called anyone who he disliked as a "faggot" and believed that homosexuality would destroy the United States:

According to a variety of very authoritative sources, Henry A. Kissinger is not a Jew, but a faggot…The problem with Kissinger is like that of that flaming, fascistic faggot Roy M. Cohn, who is justly hated by most of the ordinary homosexuals of the United States, and a number of those from other nations. Similarly, Henry A. Kissinger is no ordinary, common, garden-variety of homosexual. His heathen sexual inclinations are merely an integral part of a larger evil…To understand the kind of faggot Henry Kissinger is, what Roy Cohn is, think back to the Emperor Nero and his court…That is the kind of faggot Henry Kissinger is. That kind of faggotry destroyed Rome. Will you permit it also to destroy the United States?[6]

Anti-Marxism

LaRouche is also a staunch anti-Marxist because he believes Marxism is Satanic. He also claimed that he was sent by God to destroy Marxism and other socialist tendencies:

Why not destroy the common author of Walpole liberalism, Jacobinism, anarchism, Marxism, fascism, and Bolshe­vism? Why not kill that Satan whom such as Friedrich Nietzsche and Aleister Crowley worshipped? Better, why not destroy that Whore of Babylon, that Shakti, that Ishtar, who is the great whore-mother of all such Satans and Mol­ochs? Can we not do those necessary things? Kill Satan? Kill his mother, the Whore of Babylon? Obliterate such Holy Scriptual figures? Is such business of God the business of man? Are we not the Creator’s Right Arm, endowed with that reason which no other earthly creature possesses, that we, as dutiful creatures of Providence, might do precisely such awesome deeds when the time came we must do so? That is no word-play with symbolisms. The words touch the essence of the most concrete grand strategy required for resisting and defeating the forces of the threatened New Dark Age. The Creator beckons us to kill that evil “Whore of Babylon.” To obey that command, first we must track that foul mother of Satan to her lair…As Benito Mussolini referenced this, Fascism and Bolshevism are twins born of the same, Venetian Party moth­er. At the time Mussolini made that reference, he professed that the Fascist Romulus had triumphed over the Bolshevik Remus. Since Yalta and Potsdam, it appears that Remus has prevailed. No matter, the point is that they are twins, skunks of the same stripe and satanic aromas…The real, ultimate enemy, Satan's mother, has residence much closer to your home, perhaps the office of your favorite daily newspaper.[7]

Malthusianism

LaRouchites typically misuse the word "Malthusianism" to mean anyone who supports climate change reduction, even going to the extent to call it "green fascism".[8]
