The whole everyone is racist but we can’t be! Meritocracy! Is not only self defeating, it’s a lie about the concept of meritocracy itself. If the majority of every minority hates the concept of meritocracy then it will never exist when they are the majority. Conservative pundits are so tone deaf that they just spout Reaganisms which have failed massively which is why we’re here now. Meritocracy can only exist if the overwhelming majority of the population believes it, that’s not the case. Even crowder is using the “I’m not worried about being a minority if they don’t abuse me!” Schtick today. We are watching the death of American culture happening right before us and conservatives are saying “well at least I’m not racist!”
Tower of Babel remains undefeated and supposed Christians are racing towards it gleefully because they think compassion is the same as suicide.
Definitely true about meritocracy. If nobody believes in it what’s the point. I’ll always be a Christian. There is real compassion vs virtue signaling
That’s what’s insane to me, you can’t force cultural beliefs on people who refuse to acknowledge it. Empires can have (limited) diversity when the collective has shared beliefs and culture. No one would question Sowell or Thomas, or even going back as far Booker t Washington, being assimilated, but that’s also a minority of black Americans today. There are very clear cases of assimilated immigrants in America, they are also in the extreme minority of immigrants in total. This is a repeated historical mistake where an empire grows too big, too fast, and collapses just as quickly as a result. The best we can look forward to is a Rome situation where only half collapses but in the modern age I don’t see how it’s possible.
So true.
