The intellectual foolishness of modern liberalism
It started back in the 1950's with the Jews. In the 1950's it became socially unacceptable to speak unfavorably of the Jews, to say anything negative about them. It was a kind of powerful social pressure. You dared not state your mind or opinion in regard to Jews if your opinion was a negative one. To speak negatively of them would cause you to be labeled a racist and bigot, a bad person. This was the first infringement on freedom of speech and thought in America. What was the origin of this social pressure? Liberal religion, universities, centers of liberal thought and outlook, the mass media. (It all came as an emotional reaction to the atrocities that occurred under Hitler). Then after the Jews, it was the turn of the Blacks. It became socially unacceptable to speak negatively of Blacks in the 1960's. One dared not speak obvious truth about Blacks if that truth was derogatory. You couldn’t speak about their inclinations towards crime and violence, their tendencies to do poorly in school, their laziness, etc. They were a poor, downtrodden people, oppressed by the bad, nasty, ugly Whites. You couldn’t talk about the Black culture and mentality, it inclinations and characteristics. All of the Black problems were simply caused by White discrimination. This was the second strike against freedom of thought and expression in America. (After a series of big riots in the 1960's in which mobs of Blacks were burning down cities a lot of social legislation was passed prohibiting discrimination against Blacks accompanied by reverse discrimination policies against Whites, with quotas favoring Blacks over Whites in employment). Then after the Blacks came the turn of a third group: the gays and lesbians. In the 1970's it became taboo to speak against gays and lesbians. (They were portrayed as a poor, maligned, downtrodden group.) With all this, however, there was one group that one could openly speak against: the Whites (especially White Anglo Saxon Protestants who were often disparagingly referred to as Wasps). It became the norm for centers of liberalism to speak disparagingly of Whites, accusing them of all kinds of past sins and crimes, of oppressing others, etc.).
What is the rationale behind forbidding people to speak negatively of a particular group? It is, I assume, concern about hurting feelings, causing anger and resentment in a subgroup, creating social unrest. Truth can hurt. But how does one arrive at the truth about anything if people are not allowed to say what is to them obvious? How is one to arrive at intelligent action if one is not allowed to say what is clear to anyone with an honest, rational mind? And who has done more to create anger, resentment and division in America than the Liberals with all of their anti-White rhetoric and intellectual falseness and foolishness?
Today huge caravans of thousands of Latins from Honduras are marching up through Mexico toward the US border determined to come into the US legally or illegally, whether we want them or not. President Trump has declared that they will not be allowed in and has deployed our military to the border. If we are soft and allow a large portion of them in, one can be sure that they will be followed by caravans of tens of thousands, then hundreds of thousands, and then millions. Then most of dysfunctional Latin America will eventually flood in. (And then will come the millions from dysfunctional Africa.) And just what kind of effect will this have on America? Just what kind of people are these people who all want to come here?
Almost all of the countries of Latin America are known for deep and intractable corruption in the form of bribery, graft, drug dealing, etc.; youth gangs (such as MS-13) are a gigantic problem in many countries down there accounting for a huge number of murders every day of every year; police departments have become completely impotent and paralyzed by all of the violence (they are intimidated by the gangs who threaten to kill members of their family, or they have been bought off by the gangs, or both); high violence, murder, and crime has gotten so deep-rooted and endemic, so traumatizing, that no-one down there has any idea of how to stop it all. In Honduras, El Salvador, and Guatemala people murder with impunity. Essentially no-one is ever caught and punished. The police just helplessly do nothing. Only about one in a hundred is punished, partly because it is suicide to testify in court against the murderer. Latin culture is a male-dominated violent culture. Men murdering their wives and girlfriends in some jealous rage (or for some other reason) with impunity, no punishment, is a big, big problem in Honduras. The population, including children, see so much murder, so many dead bodies, it is so commonplace, that they think nothing about it, are hardened against it. People become hardened about morality, about justice, about right and wrong. Latin cultures have long been known for their tendencies toward violence. It is just a violent culture. Back in the 1950's the Puerto Ricans in New York City were known for their violence. Brazil, a country of over 200 million, has one of the highest violent crime rates in the world. As in other Latin countries there is a great amount of graft and corruption and the police there are inept and powerless.
In addition to all this, most Latin countries have very high poverty rates and the education level of most of the population is low. In Honduras only 30% of the population have more than 6 years of schooling and that schooling is probably far inferior to ours.
What is the underlying cause of all of this Latin social dysfunction? In many of the countries — Mexico, Brazil, Colombia, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, for example — drug trafficking has a lot to do with it. The drug trade brings great irresistible temptations of easy, big money for young teenagers. And how about the impulsive, hot-blooded Spanish temperament as a contributing factor? How about the huge amounts of illicit sex in the society and huge crops of illegitimate children growing up with single mothers (the illegitimate birth rate in most Latin countries is 65 - 75%)? How about multitudes of children growing up in homes characterized by moral and spiritual vacuums as an explanation? And how about Latin thought and mentality, Latin culture itself as an explanation? How about those stark cultural differences that separate it from American culture (that deep divide existing between the attitudes, outlooks, and values of the Spanish culture and those of white North American / North European culture) as an explanation? All of the Latin American countries are much older than those of North America (most Latin American countries go back to the early 1500's while those of North America weren’t settled until more than a hundred years later). Why are all of the Latin American countries still so poor and dysfunctional while the countries of North America are so prosperous and well-functioning (and have long been so)?
All of this illustrates a very important fact: When immorality, thievery, badness, and moral corruption become a deeply intrenched part of the mentality of a culture, a way of life for a people, a way of thinking, it becomes next to impossible to deal with it. It is like a invasive plant that has taken over an area of land that is so deeply rooted that all attempts to eradicate it fail. It just keeps coming back no matter what you do. That is Latin America.
Now I ask the following question: What would be the effects on America if gigantic numbers of badly emotionally traumatized, lawless, violent, semi-literate, semi-ignorant Latin-type people were injected into it? What would be the effect of a deep Latinization of our culture? And don’t think for a second that the Latins are ignorant about our welfare system (that system that takes such great care of everyone that everyone in the world knows about) or that Latins are stupid. Once up here, legally or illegally, other fellow Latins that they meet at work and elsewhere are very eager to inform them of the various benefits they are entitled to under our system or that can be gotten with a little lying. They automatically have free education for their children in a good school system. That is a big and very valuable benefit in itself. And the women come up here, have a child here (who automatically becomes a US citizen), and if they are making less than a certain income (and if they are here illegally you can be sure they are not declaring their earnings — they are being paid in cash) they automatically become eligible for all kinds of free welfare benefits. Everyone else is doing it and why shouldn’t they?
The bad white man who has oppressed so many people and done so much bad in this world. The real truth about the white man is obvious to anyone with good sense. What needs to be questioned is the mind, ideas and opinions of modern liberalism.
