Political and Societal Conundrums, Normalizing the Abnormal

As I attempted to discuss politics in my former country, one young cousin commented wryly that individuals are not preoccupied with politics like Americans are; people are too worried about daily economic survival and loss of “entitlements.”

After decades of communism, the culture of dependency is strongly ingrained and is not likely to go away. Voters are too uninformed, he added. They say, ‘who cares who is elected, they are all corrupt,” but then eagerly accept the meager bribes of $15-$20 in exchange for their vote, whether it’s a vote for mayoral elections or for higher office, and then line up for the promised “social benefits.” Once they obtain said benefits, they complain that nothing ever changes in society because it is all rigged against the poor. Sounds familiar?

I’ve never seen so many young people idle, out of work, smoking and drinking in cafes, discussing philosophy and the virtues of socialism, unashamed to extend their hands to receive undeserved and unearned government support, as I have seen in Europe. A few countries are tightening their welfare belts but the citizens protest vehemently.

Our young Americans, the products of decades of public school indoctrination into socialism and Marxism, are equally perplexing in their outrageous and confusing demands.  

They want equality but fail to understand that “free people are not equal.” They refuse to understand because their revisionist history teachers have taught them that communist utopia makes everyone “equal.” They don’t know that communist elites were rich beyond anybody’s dreams and wanted to maintain the status quo while everyone else was equally poor and equally miserable.

Another conundrum is expressed in the chants rioters use during organized mayhem, like “America is capitalist and greedy.” Yet almost half of the population is on some type of welfare and citizens on the dole see themselves as the “victims” of white men, the “white devils,” who succeeded in life because they had bogus “white privilege.”

In a country where every child receives an award and a trophy for participation in a competition and an undeserved, often shocking praise for fiascos, it is no surprise that failures want to be recognized for sloth and lack of work ethic.

When blatant lies and deception are endlessly justified, while corruption and treasonous behavior are no longer punished, right is wrong, wrong is right, is it any wonder that our youth have a distorted view of reality?

These imagined “black victims” predominantly run the government in most bankrupt U.S. cities and enable their constituents to remain on generational dole, asking constantly for more. As they claim to be poorer and poorer, in spite of trillions of dollars spent on the War on Poverty, they have personal property that people in other countries wish they had and fantasized about.

These same “poor,” “enslaved” people, who never mention the real slave states in 21st century Africa and Asia, are demanding reparations for their ancestors’ slavery, egged on by progressive academia; they drive the manufactured narrative of racism, of bigotry, of hate speech, in the most tolerant country on the planet, in an attempt to silence and shame all whites into blind submission to the bipartisan rulers of the country.

We are not supposed to judge an entire religion for the actions of one Muslim terrorist because he is a “lone wolf” but because one lunatic, drugged-up individual chose to murder in cold blood nine innocent people, we must immediately blame everything liberals ever wanted to change on various symbols this deranged young man displayed or used, and reorient our entire society to fit the one world government agenda. “Never let a crisis go to waste,” even a crisis as senseless and hateful as this one.

The country is described as “racist,” everyone cowers in shame, and immediately agree with the “transformational liberal agenda” that we must purge any symbol of our history, of our past, any word or phrase in our language that may be deemed offensive to someone of a “darker-pigmented skin.”

The American flag, the Confederate flag, and any statues, monuments, and graves must be removed because it offends those who don’t know nor care to know their history; if you are not removing them fast enough, let’s deface them with graffiti such as “black lives matter.” Farrakhan wants to remove all American flags!

If you cannot purchase a Confederate flag in the Gettysburg museum shop, where can you? And why are large retailers banning the sale of the Confederate flag but still selling the Nazi swastika flag and Che Guevara t-shirts, the butcher who “murdered thousands, forced thousands more into slavery, and drove more than a million to exile,” and an inveterate racist? http://www.worldaffairsjournal.org/blog/michael-j-totten/truth-about-che-guevara

Young Americans, who live in a distorted world manufactured by the progressive academia and the deceitful main stream media, have no idea what they are asking for or what they are admiring.

As Michael J. Totten said, “…anti-establishment young people all over the world have Che’s face on their walls and their T-shirts. Most of them don’t know anything real about the man they admire. They have no idea he was one of the most violently illiberal establishment figures in the Western Hemisphere’s history. They admire the image, which is and always has been a fraud.”

But we must destroy our own history and all the symbolism attached to it and remake our American past in the fake vision of liberalism that wants to shape the youth of the world into global citizens. The only country that stands in the way is the United States. But this former bastion is crumbling day by day into the dustbin of the former empires. It is falling from within through the work of its elected self-serving representatives and the ignorant and dishonest voters.

Illegal aliens and amnesty must be our number one priority, we are told ad nauseam, they represent a significant and very important voting block for all politicians; money is no object in pleasing them, while benefits to veterans and to the military are being cut.

America is so “unjust” that we must change it and make it like those perfect socialist and bankrupt European countries liberals envy and admire where everyone is “equal” on paper and “social justice” reigns supreme in theory, basking in the glory of failed multiculturalism.

America must change because it has had a good run as an “evil empire,” we are told by progressive admirers of Marx, Engels, Stalin, Lenin, and Mao.

Any perversion that violates religious beliefs and family values must be taught to our children starting in kindergarten, without parental approval. “Free-range parenting,” another liberal category constructed to demean our worth and bring us down to animal level, is verboten. Parents who engage in such practices that allow kids to be kids, play outdoors, or home-school them away from the destructive Common Core, must be arrested and stripped of their rights.

Liberals invent new language, force strange labels on us, trans-gender, trans-racial, trans-normal, trans-sexual, trans-human, just add the prefix “trans.” Liberals are normalizing the abnormal, marginalizing the majority of us as irrelevant. Only then will we achieve the sought-after “equality” and “justice” under the sun.

Will we then be a perfect society built in the progressive image of utopian Marxism with citizen slaves to the Orwellian government where some animals are more “equal” than others?

Or is this just a distraction to do the bidding of large corporations and pass the basement-guarded Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP), a disguised giveaway of our sovereignty (under the excuse of globalist trade) to a foreign entity composed of a “committee” nobody knows, elects, can talk about, reign in, nullify, or supersede?

On Being a Xenophobe

Humans are creatures of habit and do not like to uproot – unless of course, you are an American with a sense of adventure and pioneer blood cursing through your veins. With its vast lands, lakes, rivers, prairies, and mountains, mobility in America by any means is not a problem. Ask the die-hard pioneers who braved snow, rain, mud, droughts, deserts, mountains, wild animals, and predatory outlaws to find their magical piece of land where they could settle and raise a family.

The settlers left their homelands to find freedom in the New World, freedom to practice their religion, freedom from excessive taxation, and to find a piece of land they could claim their own in order to escape the suffocating tyrannies who exploited them, made their daily lives a tremendous hardship, and taxed them to death. They saved their last pennies, left everything behind that was dear to them, and embarked on a journey of salvation, not knowing how and where in the New World they would survive. But they had faith in God that, through hard work, opportunity, and perseverance, they would succeed. They did not have a safety blanket in the form of government welfare, there were no guarantees beyond their ability and willingness to work.

Fast forward to the end of the twentieth century. People disliked the regimes in their own countries so much that they moved to a more prosperous country, some legally, to get a job, some fell in love and married a foreign national, some joined the Army, some came to school and never left, and the majority of others crossed the borders illegally.

It would seem logical that, if you are so unhappy with your country of origin and leave indefinitely for better opportunities and a better life for your family, you would embrace the culture and the language of your new home. Why disadvantage and limit yourself economically by rejecting the new language?  Keep your own culture and language intact at home, have clubs, festivals, holidays, or organizations to celebrate your culture and ethnicity, but make an effort to be part of the new society you willingly joined and help make it better.

We became a nation of legal immigrants from around the world who built America and made it great by assimilating into its way of life. We learned English and are proud of our Americanism. We respect the laws, the flag, the Constitution, the national anthem, its history, and are proud of its accomplishments as a nation and its exceptionalism.

A lot of immigrants today refuse to learn English (perhaps a few are unable to learn based on their advanced age) and expect everyone to learn their language so that they can function. Hospitals, Social Security offices, welfare offices, schools, DMVs, voting precincts, libraries, stores, cinemas, theaters, courts, legal offices, police stations, and doctors’ offices provide them free of charge with translators and/or documents in more than 150 foreign languages. If we immigrated to France, we could not do that, we would have to learn French or else we would be ostracized.

It is understandable why a lot of Americans are angry with these people who leave their third world dictatorships behind and want to drag all their customs and theocracies like Sharia Law, into our country. Americans do not recognize nor want such a barbaric code of law that runs against our Constitution and our Christian beliefs. If your cultural and legal practices were so dear to you and our culture and practices offend you, perhaps you should not have moved to our country where a majority of Americans find such practices unacceptable to civilized people.

The new wave of immigrants that the multicultural progressives are pushing in the name of diversity, have no intention of assimilating, they are here to take over our country because we took it over from them, long time ago, it is payback time, they say. And there is another group of immigrants who want to install a Caliphate here.

Multiculturalism failed miserably in Europe – both Chancellor Angela Merkel and former French President Nicholas Sarkozy acknowledged publicly that multiculturalism failed, but the diversity crowd in America forgets to mention that important fact.

Because we disagree with self-loathing liberals who grew up resenting America and push multiculturalism at all costs, we are called haters, bigots, and xenophobes. There is no room for diverging opinions or polite disagreement.  It is the progressive way, there is no room for discussion or opposition. Our country must change in the image of the progressives. And this image resembles more and more the totalitarian communism I fled.

I don’t want to engage in Schadenfreude, but it appears to me that the communism-loving liberal brats don’t like the communist style accommodations at the Sochi 2014 Olympics and are complaining bitterly about it through tweets. They preach communism to the rest of us but want to maintain and enjoy the capitalist lifestyle. You can’t have it both ways, you must make up your ignorant minds.

I am a legal immigrant myself who became an American by choice and assimilated into society while helping pro bono countless other legal foreigners with paperwork translations, food, clothing, grocery shopping, hospital visits, and school.  Am I still a bigot and xenophobe and how is that possible?Top of Form
