America a Social & Power-Political Construct

The End of American Idealism

By Charles Blow, March 7, 2016 (LINK to article)

"Sometimes it’s hard to shake the uneasy feeling that we are witnessing the dissolution of an idea that was once America."

For reasons of ideology, power-politics and personal advantage, it is assumed that "race doesn't matter", or even exist, when clearly it does. You, Mr. Blow, know this better than anyone, but like most people, indulge in Orwellian doublethink.

In fact, Race, i.e. ethnic origins and identity, form the natural basis of shared national identity and genuine nationhood.

America is a myth, a social, i.e. power-political and economic, construct; unlike race (except when you try dividing closely related peoples from the same subcontinent into different races, as the Nazis insanely did), which is REAL and important. Not in the way that racial supremacists believe it is, but because central to any deep and meaningful sense of both personal and group identity.

Like my own country, America is NOT a nation, but a mercenary "patron state" deceitfully posing as a nation, in order to legitimise itself, its ruling elites and the immense power they wield and abuse.

This is a difficult, painful and frightening truth to recognise and face up to, but the truth it is, and the sooner it is faced up to the better.

Why have the academics we look to as authorities in understanding society and civilisation not already done so? Like their medieval predecessors and counterparts, they are themselves privileged clients and employees of the state, with a massive personal self-interest in rationalising its role, self-image (as our "nation") and ideologies (social, political, economic and ethical).

I elaborate on these ideas HERE.

White Guilt in the Service of Political Power

What We Fear When We Fear Terrorism

By Ross Douthat, Nov. 30 2015 (LINK to article)

"American xenophobia: We fear attacks from a nebulous or specifically-Islamic “Other” more than we fear violence by angry white men . . . , because Americans still identify with whiteness/maleness/Christianity too closely to fully imagine “white Christian terrorism” as something to be feared . . . This is a mostly left-wing argument . . "

Indeed it is a mostly left-wing argument, behind which lies an ideology of white racial self-denial and self-contempt, which began as an understandable overreaction to Jim Crow, Apartheid and, of course, Nazism, with their ideology of racial supremacism, before being transformed into an instrument of socio-political intimidation, rewards, punishments, manipulation and control, just as medieval church ideology once served.

What makes this ideology so powerful and pernicious is that is serves the age-old strategy of “divide and rule”, dividing society into a morally superior, now supposedly "colour-blind", elite and the morally inferior, naturally (human nature being what it is) less colour-blind, masses, who must submit to the authority of and domination by their "moral superiors".

It plays the same power-political role that medieval church ideology once did, whereby "original sin" (disobedience of divine, i.e. priestly/state authority) is replaced by "racial prejudice" (the natural human inclination - like original sin - to identity with members of one's own tribe, race or ethnic group, which was wrongly made responsible for the Holocaust and equated with the evils of Nazi racism), which only submission to priestly/academic/state ideology and authority can save us from eternal damnation for, not as heathens and heretics, as in the past, but as "bigots" and "racists".

As in the past, we are being bullied by an elite of "moral supremacists" who demonise different aspects of human nature to their own, personal, advantage, and which academics don't recognise, because they themselves are some of the biggest bullies.

National Unity Based on Lies and Deceit

Europe the Unready

By Paul Krugman, Nov. 27 2015 (LINK to article)

"I’m just thankful that America has the kind of unity Europe can only dream"

Most Europeans wouldn't want America's unity, thank you very much, because it would have to be based on even more lies and deceit than America's is.

This aside, even the unity of Europe's individual "nation states" is being undermined by mass immigration and DIVERSITY, which are destroying the natural ethnic foundations of genuine nationhood on which Europe's welfare states were originally based.

There is and can be no such thing as "multi-ethnic nationhood", which is an oxymoronic absurdity on a par with Orwell's Ministries of Peace and Truth.

What is "Celebrating Diversity" other than Orwellian newspeak for white people everywhere to celebrate our own ethnic displacement (white flight), replacement (we have already been reduced to an ethnic minority in large swathes of our major cities) and ultimate demise . . ??

In overreaction to Nazism's criminally insane abuse and exploitation of the natural ethnic foundations of national identity, the West - led by America, as usual - went to the opposite but equally insane extreme of denying them altogether, which was quickly incorporated into the ideology of post-racial multiculturalism to serve the age-old strategy of “divide and rule”, dividing society into a morally superior, now supposedly "colour-blind", elite and the morally inferior, naturally (human nature being what it is) less colour-blind, masses, who must submit to the authority of and domination by their "moral superiors".

We urgently need to recognise this madness, while there is still time for us to deal with it in a rational and civilised fashion. Persisting with DIVERSITY and "reverse Nazism", with its inherent racial self-denial and self-contempt, will otherwise result in an even bigger catastrophe than Nazism itself did.

Understanding America’s Obsession with Race

I sent a shorter version of this post to the opinion section of the NYT on Nov. 10 2015 in the vain hope that they might publish it.

America’s obsession with race - as reflected in the media, including the NYT - is a consequence, I suggest, of suppression of its importance. The same phenomenon in regard to sex has a much longer history. 

Fearful of the consequences of not doing so, social/state authority seeks to suppress awareness and discussion to them both, which results in our unhealthy obsession with them.

The situation is very confused, because the suppression is far from complete or uniform, varying from individual to individual. And what we suppress we don’t like talking about. If we could freely talk about them, they wouldn’t be suppressed.

The suppression of sex has been greatly relaxed in recent decades and, not withstanding some negative effects (promiscuity, VD, teenage pregnancies, etc.), most would agree that, on the whole, this is a good thing. Sex is an extremely important matter, and it is better to acknowledge this, so that we can deal with it at a personal level consciously (and conscientiously), rather than suppressing it and submitting (or not) to the commands of external authority.

Suppression of the importance of race, on the other hand, is still very much mainstream, especially amongst those who consider themselves “progressives”, with many even denying the existence of race altogether, dismissing it as a “social construct” only of importance to “bigots” and “racists”, much as women admitting to having sexual desires would once have been demonised as “wanton whores” or the like.

Why are the same “progressives” who are for sexual liberation, so fervently opposed to “racial liberation”, i.e. ending our denial and suppression of its importance?

Obviously, fear of the consequences (e.g. racial supremacism) is one major reason. But another, more powerful reason, I suggest, is the sense of moral superiority and authority which goes with it, and is not just a personal matter, but also has huge social, professional and political implications.

Denial and suppression of the importance of race (not in the way that racial supremacists believe it is, but because central to any deep and meaningful sense of both personal and group identity) has been fashioned, mainly by academics, into an instrument of socio-political intimidation, rewards, punishments, manipulation and control, with "racism" i.e. the natural human inclination towards racial prejudice, playing the same role that "original sin" once did, thereby serving the age-old strategy of “divide and rule”, dividing society into a morally superior, now supposedly "colour-blind", elite and the morally inferior, naturally (human nature being what it is) less colour-blind, masses, who must submit to the authority of and domination by their "moral superiors".
