>We devote ourselves to struggles, be they real or not

Since time immemorial, there is one thing that does not change. As the universe crawls ever closer to heat death, life spurs on in its endless crusade against the cold, dark, impenetrable wall that is death. Do you not think that these primal cosmic forces would embody themselves in every iota of existence? Why, then, is it so? For what is life if not futility?

These struggles that you so nonchalantly dismiss, they are claims to permanence in a fundamentally impermanent existence. Indeed, the great many are intellectual fumbles, corruptions, and play out your 'cosmic joke' in the lives of the automatons that subscribe to them. Marxists: scum, dumb, kept under bourgeoisie thumb. Feminists: more of the same. And so on and so forth. Why then, do the lemmings go? Let me tell you.

These people feel the force of life. They may not understand it, but they are driven in spirit to search for meaning and truth. The pitfalls of which we've spoken are exactly that: mines in the fields, traps for the unwitting. Such is life. Do not be mistaken, however, into thinking that by the process of elimination you see no purpose, no higher meaning, no impermanence in this struggle. You perceive conflict as the dying throes of sentient meat, doomed to live out the foresight of its own end. I perceive conflict as the divine spark in men, such that they might escape the mortal coil entwined around them and transcend the wheel of life and death, to truly unite with the godhead.

ideologies are microreligions.

in my opinion, faith is essential to man. When you are working for a cause greater than yourself, it gives you a ton of energy and drive, we are somewhat builtin to be inner-rewarded for pursuing an egoless goal. (maybe not niggers, they are much more selfish)

Our modern society doesn't provide anything really in this domain, you have to find your own path.

So people are filling the void with lots of social justice fights like feminism or inequality, and it ends dividing society because they all have different goals. In the meantime, people driven by personal greed can easily get to the top due to more liberalism.

If you don't find anything to live for, you end up depressed, a disease of the modern world, which happens despite all odds, because we have tons of food and stuff, to live an happy life.

Hitler provided a religion that united the people, and restored faith in a common goal. I think he was really on point, and build a framework to better humanity.

tldr: You can escape religions; Hitler was right.

Ideologies are there for those that do not understand what to do or why to do it, it is a matter of oversimplification for the sake of setting a guide by which to live by. It is what people fall back to when they do not have a clear and definite answer for something. You can only truly know if something does or doesn't work by experience, the lack thereof is replaced by ideology. It can work in a good way, which is that it can help be taught to children without overloading them with information. The bad way it can work is that because people do not understand the line of reasoning, many will reach a false conclusion. The biggest drawback, however, is that it can be used to manipulate with people by pandering to their ideology, the most common example would be liberals calling for "freedom", even though it is very obvious that it is not their goal at all.

Ideology is a pragmatic tool to teach other individuals about politics without having to explain to every single person on the entire planet, it an unavoidable oversimplification of morals and ideals for the sake of their propagation. So no, it isn't that those who are "in control" are making themselves a ruling class by controlling our thoughts, they are simply taking advantage of this weakness.
