Blavatsky and Mazzini adopted the same view towards communism and socialism. Both maintained a unique position in republicanism as a force for the progress of a moralistic and humanitarian syncretic religious vision, “universal brotherhood,” and ethical duty-driven virtue. This vision was divorced from socialism and communist revolutionaries, the emergent “new atheism” of that time (which Blavatsky and Mazzini were highly critical of), the materialist industrialism of the factories, and the revisionist anti-philosophy scientific elite who were obscuring the ancient roots of the sciences.
Blavatsky explicitly states that the Theosophical Movement was founded to curtail the dominant growth of materialism. Blavatsky and Judge both express quite Mazzinian tones, and we are not of the belief that these ideas are merely of the nineteenth-century. We must still fight for them.
I will provide more information about Mazzini and the similarities to Blavatsky’s ideas and the mission of Theosophy, which both Judge and Blavatsky express. I do not write these things, inventing it from thin air. The supporting evidence exists in the literature, letters and early history (or operations) of the Theosophical Society. The writings on The American Minervan about republicanism are no coincidence. I advise not letting modern-day American political issues blind you to this information.
