Racial Self-Contempt of the Liberal Left

How Stupid Is Iowa?

By Timothy Egan, Jan 29, 2016 (LINK to article)

To my pleasant surprise, my comment was approve and published by the NYT (LINK). This is the longer, revised version I was intending to post here in its stead:

"Trump can call for a police state pogrom against 11 million people and be rewarded, because a majority of Republican caucusgoers are white, native-born and believe that electing a demagogue will make American white again."

The contempt which "progressives" like Timothy Egan show for their own race is breath-taking.

They can’t express such contempt for other races, of course, but only for their own race, which, ironically and paradoxically, reinforces their sense of moral superiority as “anti-racists".

They don't see it themselves, because they live in an ideological bubble, their views reinforced my fellow "progressives", who see any co-ethnics failing to share their sense of racial self-denial and  self-contempt as "white supremacists".

How is one to understand such blindness and madness on the part of people convinced that THEY are the enlightened ones?  It is their own sense of being enlightened and morally superior, of course, which blinds them. Most of them mean well, which is why I refuse to see them as enemies. They are just misguided. Which is how they see people like ME, of course: misguided, "hateful" and full of "white supremacy".

I guess we are ALL deluded and misguided to some extent. But I'm not hateful or full of white supremacy. For better and for worse, I identify with my own race, which seems to me a natural and healthy thing to do. Denying and despising one's own race, as "progressives" are ideologically bound to do, strikes me as unnatural, unhealthy and pretty perverse.

I want to enlighten them, but they are convinced that I am the one in need of enlightenment, i.e. who should embrace THEIR ideology of racial self-denial and self-contempt. But I'm damned if I will. I have too much racial self-respect.

I have also discovered, I believe, the cause of their unnatural and unhealthy attitude of racial self-denial and self-contempt, which began as an understandable OVERREACTION (something the NYT itself warns of an editorial following the Paris attacks) to Nazism and the Holocaust, and which I elaborate on HERE.

Opposition to Immigration Equated with Hate Mongering

Britain's ‘Brexit’ Folly

By Roger Cohen, Oct. 26 2015 (LINK to article)

". . the hordes of desperate refugees intent on disrupting the British way of life (whatever they imagine that to be) [and] the anti-immigrant hatemongers of the U.K. Independence Party." 

Blinded by your own self-righteous, Roger, but you are the one, it seems to me, doing the "hatemongering".

Many of us - including many UKIP members, I'm sure, although I'm not one of them - are old enough to REMEMBER (we don't have to imagine) what the British way of life was like, before we were reduced to an ethnic minority in large swathes of our major cities my mass immigration, which you think we should have even more of, and "celebrate" as some kind of "enrichment", when in reality is is Orwellian newspeak for native Britons (and white people everywhere) to celebrate our own ethnic displacement (white flight), replacement, and ultimate demise . .

You don't just want to see European Americans (your OWN race, for heaven's sake!) reduced to an ethnic minority in the country they founded and very largely shaped, but also their descendants who chose to remain in Europe reduced to an ethnic minority in their ancestral homeland.

Why? What kind of racial self-hatefulness motivates you. And not just you, of course, all so-called "progressives", it seems. Where does it come from, this racial self-hatred?

I believe that it is, in large part, ideological: http://philosopherkin.blogspot.co.uk/2015/03/method-to-madness-of-post-racial.html
