As Steve Sailer points out, a lot of Americans don't have ancestors who were part of the Founding, the Frontier, or Civil War. Read "Carved Upon the Landscape".
How is Selma doing, anyway? Given how its civil rights heroes won the battle and achieved everything they wanted in terms of transforming society, it should be a great place to live, right?
Selma, Alabama is statistically one of the worst places to live in the whole country today across many metrics. These leftists and liberals need to stop harassing and physically assaulting law enforcement, and go and volunteer their free time at a food bank, clinic, community center, or after school program in Selma.
I always tell people who mention Selma, "go there and let me know what you think". It's basically on par with most third world shitholes. Like him or not, this could not be what King envisioned.
It’s heartening to watch MLK day come and go with less fanfare each year. If we’re to displace the civil rights mythology completely with frontier myths, promoting our adventures in space seems to be an ideal candidate. Having libtards and minorities making protest signs about how much it cost to feed astronauts again would be a double win. The worst self-own Republicans & fiscal conservatives ever did was to try and save money by defunding NASA etc.
We’re doing a manned trip around the moon in the coming weeks. The first in decades. It would be nice to see the Right promoting it. We know deep in their hearts that libtards despise anything cool like that.
I'm not sure I'd celebrate a manned trip around the moon. Nor even a landing. We did that 60 years ago. What, in 60 years are we going to celebrate building a world wide web?
But I get your point. I would certainly celebrate Mars.
We’ve gotta start somewhere and get back on the proverbial bike. We’ve been preoccupied with gibs & “rights” that we’ve neglected our drive for adventure. Space is obviously the next step in humanity’s destiny. And America should obviously lead the way. Making it a focus makes all the libtard complaints about inequality or whatever seem petty. It’s one of our best weapons imo.
I agree. Though I hate hearing NASA say stuff like "Safety is our NORTH STAR" when space exploration is inherently unsafe, and GLORY should be their north star, not safety. Makes me wonder how dedicated they are to being awesome.
Fear of barbarians coming over the wall is the source of some ancient mythology, but it’s not American. ICE is not bringing order to chaos. They are (at least ostensibly) trying to preserve an existing order. Neither the rhetoric nor the actions themselves are a good match for the American founding/frontier myths.
Been saying for years that American kids are being brain wormed by Rosa Parks and the diary of Anne Frank. It was obvious in 2015 that a huge percentage of white liberals would be content to actually see Jews (or illegal Hondurans) shoved into ovens if it meant they could finally prove to themselves and others they they’d be the ones to bring little Anne (or Anita) potatoes in the attic. In principle this would be easy to deprogram if we could start with a clean slate but it would require a savvier acquisition of cultural and institutional influence than the right seems interested in pursuing. Infiltrating educational and cultural spheres of influence would be critical and it would include shaping curricula and entertainment output.
The myths that lefties cling to and described by Greer are the result of Jewish dominance of the media and entertainment industries. It is they who've largely shaped American culture and perceptions of our history and it's they who denigrate the founders, the confederacy, white people and especially white people who live in the South. And it is they who inform an ignorant populace that any attempts to control borders and preserve majority white demographics in Western nations is "fascism" and the new Nazism that must be opposed by all good people. Jewish agitprop via the media and entertainment industry and the university system has caused a significant number of white people to be lefty and anti-racist (anti-white) dervishes and enemies of their own people which has to be a first in world history.
But radical demographic change in Israel is another holocaust. Also, Jim Crow laws were shameful but the Israeli version of them are laudable, but I digress. .
While I don’t dispute your underlying hypothesis, the fact is the Jews you’re referencing are by and large raging blank slate leftists who donate enthusiastically
To changing the demographics of Israel via immigration and “co existence” with homicidal Muslims. The donor overlap between leftist causes in the U.S. and Israel is significant as far as diaspora Jews are concerned, ditto right wing isolationism in both countries. Most of you JQers tumble by not understanding modern day Israel very well. Were it up to the left wing Ashkenazi Bolsheviks you’re complaining about, Israel would be Palestine by now.

Those black & white photos of civil rights demonstrators are the modern left's religious iconography. Fantastic and incredible article.
Very true all of it, although the left's higher rates of mental illness likely contribute as well.
Yes, Scott. This is a VERY good article. Lapidary prose and an excellent assessment of our "mythological nation."

Selma is reported to be more violent than 96% of all U.S. cities in certain crime indexes.

As a smarter man than me once said, "For progressives, it's always 1933 or 1968. For conservatives, it's always 1988."
