The entire narrative pushed on boomers was “magic soil” and “all cultures are equal”. While it’s true that minorities can assimilate (see Sowell, Elder, etc) it is always a minority of the population. It’s also the greatest lie pushed on a generation, the harsh truth is the majority will always be race/ tribe first. We benefited from those willing to assimilate and allowed the majority who wouldn’t. This has cascaded into a free fall of the Overton Window where it always shifts left as long as there is money to spend and people to import. The next decade will see the collapse of Americana in full, I don’t blame the minority that assimilated versus the rampant ideology of “multiculturalism” that is pushed. The problem is no matter how we vote America the “great experiment” is gone. We are currently in the death of the empire and there’s no party willing to change the status quo. What matters is if there’s a nation worthy of saving. This is nothing new to anyone here, but still something that must be discussed for the generations after us.

I hate the fact that what you are saying makes sense. I was raised to be colorblind in the sense that your skin color doesn’t determine your value or what kind of person you are. Also, as a Christian I want to show love to everyone and care for my neighbors. I feel I wear rose colored glasses and it’s like I know how the country is or about race realism but would rather wear those glasses. You make great points and I’ve thought about that a lot
they raised us wrong on purpose while raising the foreigners right.
People like you, Sowell and other contributors show there is in fact room for those who assimilate. The problem always comes from the ratio, if we allow indiscriminately then we always will end up where we are. At the same time if we cut off everyone based on identity we are at a loss as well. There’s a medium to be found in gatekeeping and merit, but it’s a slow process and requires tenacity. Something we have not had the luxury of in modernity.
It is not really assimilation though. You're talking about people who were born in our culture, who are outliers among their race, and who accordingly model their behavior after White Americans.
And yet will never actually be genetically related unless there is significant interbreeding until the whites are brought down in IQ and cognition to their level.
Don't fuck retards?
And their own people consider them the utmost contemptible race traitors.
It’s just like Linux development or any complex system. It must be maintained by assholes with integrity and strict standards.
Very true
At this point it's a risk/reward calculation. And unfortunately the "risk" side severely outweighs the "reward" side.
We wouldn't need Sowell's brilliance in noticing how fucked up our economic system and demographics are if we hadn't imported and enabled people who make it that way.
I am curious, and have to ask, are Occidental nations really at a loss?
There’s a very good case to be made for extremely selective immigration/minorities. Every major empire in human history from the Khans to Rome had foreigners with exceptional talent treated as middle/ upper caste. The Khans system was interesting because they would move talented people out of their home country to another more favorable one, this way they could still discriminate against other races but with caveats for those with merit who in turn became middle/upper class in the new country they were placed in.
There is a massive gulf between loving your neighbor and letting your neighbor destroy your home.
Additionally, showing love to your people means you don't act like a retard and let the children be massacred by Africans or jeets because you have some martyr savior complex instilled in you regarding who these invaders actually are.
Finally, if there are foreigner paragons of virtue, good Christians, and upstanding citizens, they should be empowered to make their countries better, in their lands, and we can maintain good peaceful relations with them as separates. I can appreciate good souls without having to integrate with them all and lose my own people and culture as a result.
I see your logic
As a Christian, I would suggest that your primary aim in life should be to unite your will with that of God's. And doing so entails you allowing yourself to be led by our Lord Jesus Christ, through faith in Him and following His example. As Jesus says, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but by me. If you had known me, you would have known my Father also; henceforth you know him and have seen him." (John 14:6-7 RSV).
Practically speaking, this means forming your conscience to follow the natural law, which is God's eternal law applied to human behavior. This means, yes, ensuring you love your neighbor as you love yourself. Under God's natural law, we are not required to 'fix' the world ourselves. To be frank, that is God's purview. He is, after all, in control of history.
Remember that all of us are created in the image and likeness of God. Each human possesses infinite dignity by virtue by being human. This is why we are called to love our neighbors. Of course, it does not mean 'being nice' to everyone (this is a 'near enemy' of actual love), but rather that we are concerned with the redemption of all fellow humans by bringing them to the Truth of Jesus Christ.
When you admit that "race realism" is starting to "make sense", what is this idea in a fundamental sense? Is it that certain groups of humans are inherently inferior to others by virtue of the birth, i.e. their 'genes', and others are inherently superior to others? Is this something that could be true, knowing what you do about natural law? Or are seductive ideas from a secular world, in which man is placed above God? Where might seductive ideas ultimately be coming from?
Perhaps this comment resonates with you, perhaps it does not. I am raising questions that I think you should ponder in your heart, like Mary of Nazareth did so often, and perhaps this is something you would like to bring to our Lord in prayer. I myself ponder these questions often, for I know it is necessary to do so to form my own conscience and to try to be a servant of God, not of man.
Very well stated. I don’t believe anyone is superior or inferior. We are fearfully and wonderfully made. I still believe in not judging someone based on skin color. I do see that there seems to be an agenda to stir up racial animosity. Like I’ve seen constant attacks on whites or media downplaying black criminality and constant discussion of past issues. I get what you mean that we can’t fix the world. I guess I meant more that I can see why you are getting people who only want to associate with their own race which they have the right to but like with immigration it seems like whites are constantly being told how terrible they are and his wonderful everyone else is. But do truly truly to love my neighbor as Christ commands. I will go to the Lord in prayers. Thank you
