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.

It's guilt. Not guilt because of 'what would my black friends say' although that might be some of it, but guilt at realising the truth, or maybe embarrassment. I can tell partly because I feel that guilt myself even though I share in less of it, having grown up in a big city in the 80s and 90s and swallowing race-blindness wholesale. Acceptance of this ideology informs your behaviour and changes your decision-making, down to the kinds of choices you make for your kids: where you choose to start a family, where you send them to school, the life lessons you give them, etc... To realise you got basic ideas of racial solidarity wrong is to suddenly become aware that you probably screwed your kids over to some extent and that's not a crisis of conscience people want to suddenly have, particularly if they're people who thought they had life figured out 30 years ago.
The other part is that this is the classic psychology of the co-opted victim. If we accept that this is a form of brainwashing then those afflicted with it are victims in that sense. Victims of betrayal are often the last people you can seek to reason with, because they'll fight to defend their betrayers as if their entire self-identity depends on it, which it does I guess. Victims of sex abuse often defend the abuser and perpetuate the cycle of abuse. Victims of circumcision can't accept that their parents and doctors did something evil to them, instead they argue for it and subject their own children to it to show just how everyday an occurrence it is. Victims of the covid psyop would rather talk about anything other than the mrna boosters they're skipping in 2025, not to mention the insane restrictions they once cheered on, but are still high likelihood to be first in queue for jabs should a new fake scare arise. And the child vaxx schedule itself is another example. It's easier to just never confront the betrayal at the root of it all.
