American Liberals and Globalists are having the vapors as they cogitate over why Trump supporters stand by their president, even after his defeat.
To answer that riddle, wrapped in a mystery sprinkled with enigma, Liberals bring in those experts on American Blood Memory: Ali Velshi, Samantha Bee, Fareed Zakaria, Anand Giridharadas, Mehdi Hasan, John Oliver, Maria Hinojosa, Andrew Sullivan, Jorge Ramos, and Rep. Ilhan Omar.
They collectively grasp the obvious; America is in decline; or as Mr. Hasan, in his best upper crust British accent proclaimed: Is America a failed state?
Those carpet bagging pundits believe that Trump’s enduring support is a reflection of that decline; when in reality, those supporters reflect a visceral, blood memory reaction to the decline.
Is America in decline?
Certainly. Because of malfeasance in Liberal Governance, America is about to join Argentina in that very exclusive community of post-industrial states. Nations which were once the richest nations on earth, per capita, are now stray dogs among the ruins.
“As a report resulting from a partnership between ProPublica and The New York Times Magazine, with support from the Pulitzer Center, found:
“Across the United States, some 162 million people — nearly one in two — will most likely experience a decline in the quality of their environment, namely more heat and less water. For 93 million of them, the changes could be particularly severe, and by 2070, our analysis suggests, if carbon emissions rise at extreme levels, at least four million Americans could find themselves living at the fringe, in places decidedly outside the ideal niche for human life.”…Charles blow….new york times.”
That means, for working class American natives, of all races, and middle class natives, of all races, their children will be less prosperous than themselves; and their grandchildren less prosperous than their children. Stray dogs among the ruins. Only criminals will see their children prosper beyond their prior station in life.
DECLINE, amid less water.
So what do Liberals want to do amid decline with less water? Uncle Joe Biden wants to bring in more migrants…….
“.....“Immigrants and their children will represent 36 percent of the U.S. population in 2065, which equals or surpasses the peak levels last seen around the turn of the 20th century. That share will represent a doubling since 1965 (18 percent) and a notable rise from today’s 26 percent.”
The report states that “the arrival of new immigrants and the births of their children and grandchildren account for 55 percent of the U.S. population increase from 193 million in 1965 to 324 million today. The new Pew Research Center projections also show that the nation is projected to grow to 441 million in 2065 and that 88 percent of the increase is linked to future immigrants and their descendants.”
The displacement of a white majority and the rise of majority-Hispanic states in the Southwest will have major consequences.
Furthermore, we will reach the point at which the Hispanic population will be nearly double the Black one and the Asian population will be larger than the Black one. This will reorder the meaning and influence of minority groups….charles blow, new york times.”
Before the Republic could finish the Lincolnesque task of uplifting American Blacks, Liberals are fixated on bringing in more migrants, so that Black Power is permanently diminished.
But then again, we know from the current cultural battles, Liberals have absolutely no respect for Abraham Lincoln and what he tried to accomplish.
This Blogger asks all the migrant intellectuals who have come to America, to gloat over the decline of the Republic, what is a Trump supporter to do when he sees illegal aliens, squatters, claim jumpers come to his land, prosper, be rewarded with citizenship and then try to destroy the native culture?
If one is a native born American who loves his culture, who is he or she to turn to but Donald Trump?
Why did the Apache follow Geronimo? The Lakota follow Crazy Horse? The Shawnee follow Tecumseh?
“ We feel like Republicans don't fight enough for us, and we all see Donald Trump fighting for us as hard as he can, every single day," Brandon Keidl, 27, a Republican and small-business owner from Milwaukee, says in an interview after being polled. "But then you have establishment Republicans who just agree with establishment Democrats and everything, and they don't ever push back…….USA TODAY”
To his supporters, Donald Trump is Geronimo, William Wallace, Sir Thomas More, Michael Collins and Jomo Kenyatta combined.
“According to a recent American Enterprise Institute survey, 56 percent of Republicans believe the traditional American way of life is disappearing so fast that we may have to use force to save it. Thirty- nine percent backed an even stronger statement. If elected leaders will not protect America, the people must do it themselves even if it requires taking violent actions. …….. Fareed Zakaria CNN.”
Trump supporters are not ignorant Yahoos; they understand, instinctively, what Uncle Joe Biden’s policies mean for the Republic; economically it will turn America into a new Argentina, a post industrial wasteland for the working class; and culturally, into an American Bosnia, where snipers from different minority majority groups will shoot unsuspecting members of other minority majority groups on the tumbleweed streets.
All that said, what will trigger the viscous violence to come? That will be the cultural erasure being inflicted on America by an alliance of migrants and Liberals, their Damnatio Memoriae, of every American hero from the discarded white majority.
The migrant/Liberal alliance even wants to erase memorials honoring Abraham Lincoln from national homage. If the Republic cannot reach a cultural, Jungian consensus that Lincoln was a man worthy of appreciation, regard and honor across generations, then what in the hell is the point of the Republic?
Tolstoy called Lincoln “CHRIST IN MINATURE” yet Liberal migrants want to erase him.
No Democrat has stood up to save Lincoln’s memory or his memorials; not even Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who represents San Francisco in Congress. But then again, how could they? The 27 year old woman who led the attack on Lincoln in San Francisco is the daughter of Mexican migrants, the first in her family to go to college and took her oath as President of the School Board in Spanish. Those qualities inform Democrats, that she has a DIVINE RIGHT to trash the filthy gringo, who opposed the Mexican-American War as immoral, saved the Union and freed the slaves.
The cultural infamy being inflicted on Lincoln, causes Trump supporters to become a toxic blend of the Taliban, Carlists, Old Believers and Social Revolutionaries. It is the cultural war launched by Stalinists and Maoists against American heroes and culture, which has turned American native born women into Fanny Kaplans.
“A Chicago committee has listed five statues of Abraham Lincoln among dozens of monuments that it said needed to be reviewed as part of a project to reconsider symbols that have become “a focal point for conversation, protest and activism,” the city said Wednesday.
The city created the committee in response to last summer’s protests, some of which centered on statues of historical figures, to review Chicago’s collection of monuments and “recommend solutions.”
The review comes as other U.S. cities have made similar efforts to re-examine historical symbols and monuments that have come under new scrutiny in the wake of protests against racism and police violence. Last year, local leaders took down statues of Christopher Columbus and Confederate leaders, among other monuments, and last month, the San Francisco school board voted to remove the names of modern and historical figures, including Lincoln and George Washington, from 44 of its public schools.
The committee in Chicago did not provide specific reasons that the statues of Lincoln, who started his political career in Illinois, should be reviewed. The list also includes statues of Ulysses S. Grant, George Washington, Benjamin Franklin and several monuments to Indigenous people.
The committee said it had looked at 500 monumental sculptures, commemorative plaques and other pieces of public art in the city, almost all of which were created between 1893 and the 1930s. Forty-one were chosen for “public discussion,”….. reasons given were that the markers presented “selective, oversimplified, one-sided views of history” and created “tension between people who see value in these artworks and those who do not.”
…Lincoln’s views evolved during the Civil War, but those early statements remained “abysmal,” he said.
“For many, his flaws undermine his very real, significant achievements,” Professor Fountain said…Such statues diminish “the active role African-Americans played in emancipation and inflates white efforts,” Professor Fountain said…..NEW YORK TIMES.”
To the best of this Blogger's knowledge, the American Civil War was the only Civil War in history which resulted in the winning government freeing the nation's slaves. Lincoln did that.
When White Abolitionist leader John Brown offered Black Abolitionist, and ex-slave, Frederick Douglass, a prominent role in his Harper’s Ferry raid, Douglass declined. He told Brown only a massive effort by a white man’s government could free the slaves, ergo Civil War.
During the Civil War, the following white officers were killed fighting to end slavery: 1 Army commander, 3 corps commanders, 14 division commanders, and 67 brigade commanders, including 32 generals.
Honoring those men does not diminish the role of Blacks in their own effort to free Black slaves. Dishonoring them does diminish American Blood Memory.
“The crown teachers once put on William Shakespeare now lies uneasy upon his head as the English playwright comes under assault from teachers who fault his unwoke attitudes regarding race, sexuality, gender and class.For the new breed of teachers, Shakespeare is seen less as an icon of literature and more as a tool of imperial oppression, an author who should be dissected in class or banished from the curriculum entirely.
“This is about white supremacy and colonization,” declared the teachers who founded #DisruptTexts, a group that wants staples of Western literature removed or subjected to withering criticism.
-Shakespeare teachers say fans of the plays ignore the author’s problematic worldview. They say readers of Shakespeare should be required to address the “whiteness” of their thinking.
If Shakespeare must be taught, these educators say, then it should be presented with watered-down versions of the original or supplemental texts focused on equality issues.
Elizabeth Nelson, who teaches English at Twin Cities Academy in St. Paul, Minnesota, told School Library Journal that she gives her students Marxist theory when reading Shakespeare’s tragedy “Coriolanus” about the Roman leader.
Sarah Mulhern Gross told the journal that she delivered “toxic masculinity analysis” to her students reading “Romeo and Juliet” at High Technology High School in Lincroft, New Jersey.
The war against Shakespeare did not begin in 2021 or even 2020. December marked five years since students at the University of Pennsylvania removed a portrait of the Bard from their Ivy League halls.
The organizers behind #DisruptTexts put Shakespeare in the social justice crosshairs in October 2018.
The School Library Journal, which describes itself as “the premier publication for librarians and information specialists who work with children and teens,” joined the fight this year and offered young adult novels as alternatives to Shakespeare.
The librarians also showcased an essay questioning the contemporary value of the playwright responsible for classics such as “Hamlet,” “Macbeth” and “King Lear.”
“A growing number of educators are … coming to the conclusion that it’s time for Shakespeare to be set aside or deemphasized to make room for modern, diverse, and inclusive voices,” said the essay, titled “To Teach or Not to Teach: Is Shakespeare Still Relevant to Today’s Students?”
….A study last year by the association pinpointed a 1987 march at Stanford University as a turning point in modern education when Democratic activist Jesse Jackson led undergraduates in a chant, “Hey ho, Western civ has got to go.”
Within a year, Stanford had erased Western civilization requirement for undergraduates. At about the same time, classrooms everywhere began adopting a multicultural agenda hostile toward white male authors, according to the report.
.Shakespeare is far from the only famous author to be squeezed through the social justice cheesecloth. #DisruptTexts also went after F. Scott Fitzgerald, William Golding and other dead white male writers who long dotted high school syllabuses....WASHINGTON TIMES.”
“A growing number of 'woke' academics are refusing to teach Shakespeare in U.S. schools, arguing that the Bard promotes racism, white supremacy and intolerance, and instead are pushing for the teaching of 'modern' alternatives.
Writing in the January issue of School Library Journal, Amanda MacGregor, a Minnesota-based librarian, bookseller and freelance journalist, asked why teachers were continuing to include Shakespeare in their classrooms.
'Shakespeare's works are full of problematic, outdated ideas, with plenty of misogyny, racism, homophobia, classism, anti-Semitism and misogynoir,' she wrote, with the last word referring to a hatred of black women.
….MacGregor contended that an increasing number of educators are 'coming to the conclusion that it's time for Shakespeare to be set aside and deemphasized to make room for modern, diverse and inclusive voices.'l
Among those who have abandoned Shakespeare are Claire Bruncke, who taught English at Ilwaco High School in Washington state.
…..Liz Matthews, a ninth grade English teacher at Hartford Public High School in Connecticut, where the student body is 95 per cent black or Hispanic, said she had replaced Shakespeare with authors who wrote about people like her students.
'I replaced Romeo and Juliet with The House On Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros last year, and Long Way Down by Jason Reynolds this year,' she said.
Mango Street was published in 1984; Long Way Down was published in 2017. Romeo and Juliet was first published in 1597.
….Lorena German, National Council of Teachers of English Anti-Racism Committee chair and a co-founder of the Disrupt Texts forum, which aims to suggest a wide range of literature for study, said she felt Shakespeare should be discarded…..DAILY MAIL.”
“San Francisco has issued its latest grand moral decree, and bad ex-presidents would be quaking in their coffins—if they could stop laughing.
On January 26, the San Francisco school board announced that dozens of public schools must be renamed. The figures that do not meet the board’s standards include Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, John Muir, Robert Louis Stevenson, Paul Revere, and Dianne Feinstein. A panel had determined that the 44 schools—more than one-third of the city’s total—were named after figures guilty of being, variously, colonizers; slave owners; exploiters of workers; oppressors of women, children, or queer and transgender people; people connected to human rights or environmental abuses; and espousers of racist beliefs.
This holier-than-thou crusade is typical for San Francisco, which in recent years has traded in its freak flag to march under the banner of brain-dead political correctness……
The School Names Advisory Committee was created in 2018 by the San Francisco Board of Education. Although the committee of community members and school-board staff was supposed to “engage the larger San Francisco community in a sustained discussion regarding public school names,” no such engagement ever took place. The “blue-ribbon panel” did its own “research” (using that term lightly) and issued its own rulings. In keeping with the incorruptible, Robespierre-like spirit of our revolutionary times, the committee decreed that one sin (being a colonizer or slave owner, using an “inappropriate” word, and so on) was all that was required to send a figure to the guillotine. Once that decision was made, the severed heads rolled into the gutter of history. Since Washington was a slave owner and, in the words of the committee, “the majority of [Lincoln’s] policies proved detrimental” to Native peoples, the leader who won America’s war of independence and the one who saved the union and issued the Emancipation Proclamation were dispatched without further discussion. The decision to rename Abraham Lincoln High took five seconds; George Washington took 12.
The decision process was a joke. The committee’s research seems to have consisted mostly of cursory Google searches, and the sources cited were primarily Wikipedia entries or similar. Historians were not consulted. Embarrassing errors of interpretation were made, as well as rudimentary factual errors. Robert Louis Stevenson, perhaps the most beloved literary figure in the city’s history, was canceled because in a poem titled “Foreign Children” in his famous collection A Child’s Garden of Verses, he used the rhyming word Japanee for Japanese. Paul Revere Elementary School ended up on the renaming list because, during the discussion, a committee member misread a History.com article as claiming that Revere had taken part in an expedition that stole the lands of the Penobscot Indians. In fact, the article described Revere’s role in the Penobscot Expedition, a disastrous American military campaign against the British during the Revolutionary War. (That expedition was named after a bay in Maine.) But no one bothered to check, the committee voted to rename the school, and by order of the San Francisco school board Paul Revere will now ride into oblivion.
The committee also failed to consistently apply its one-strike-and-you’re-out rule. When one member questioned whether Malcolm X Academy should be renamed in light of the fact that Malcolm was once a pimp, and therefore subjugated women, the committee decided that his later career redeemed his earlier missteps. Yet no such exceptions were made for Lincoln, Jefferson, and others on the list.
……Mythical entities also fell under the fatal gaze of the Purity Police. El Dorado Elementary, named after a fantastical kingdom whose fame circulated among Spanish explorers in the early 16th century…...
……The left, or at least the woke left, largely dismisses such questions. It has embraced a kind of maximum-semiotic approach to cultural artifacts, in which historical context and intent are irrelevant and all that matters is the free-floating message sent by a cultural object. This anything-can-be-offensive stance is combined with an identity-politics-driven, victim-centered ideology that makes people of color and historically oppressed groups the arbiters of whether a cultural object stays or goes. (Hey, it’s so much easier than actually working to improve their lot.) And their rulings cannot be appealed.……... THE ATLANTIC.”
The current coordinated Liberal attack on American culture, historic American standards (seriously, Liberals want you to believe Shakespeare was a hack!), and the mystic chords of American Blood Memory is a toxic application of Stalinism and Maoism, peppered with the finesse of the Khmer Rouge.
Its goal is to destroy both America’s etiological myth and its ethnogenesis.
The Liberal cum Stalinist Plan is to strip America of its founding myth, its origin story, under the guise it is evil; and to strip America of its Arthurian legends because more straight white males were involved in it than castratos, or Sunni Mahdis or Han eunuchs.
President Trump commands loyalty because he stands for the validity of the Blood memory in the face of petty termites of Stalinist mediocrity, hiding behind Modernity.
