Rule by minority

Isn't that a Liberal's definition of tyranny?  Yet,
"...classic democracy, i.e., the power of majorities, has been replaced by a new kind of democracy, represented by the rule of minorities over the majority. The minorities are being protected from the "totalitarian" and "authoritarian" minded majority. The very semantics of democracy have been changed." 
--Alexandr Dugin, Russian political theorist.
Ask yourself how much of the crises that wash across our nation are not about some kind of aggrieved Sacred Victim minority?

Liberalism's inner logic actually requires rule by minority.

In a society infected by Liberalism, historical success is re-interpreted as nothing more than oppression and "privilege", so that it becomes the duty of the inheritors of successful groups to divest themselves of their ancestors achievements for the sake of the losers. After all, if another person or group is "less well off", then is it not the urgent responsibility of the Liberal to redress that unnatural and unjust imbalance*? And if that means the suicide of his culture and people, well, as an otherwise smart and savvy relative of mine said to me, it's our moral duty to let ourselves disappear, because it shows we're better than they are.

A Christian martyr --or any religious martyr--is an ambiguous figure; a secular martyr is more of a diseased and dangerous fool than words can express. It bespeaks a combination of self-loathing and moral exhibitionism unprecedented in human history.





The reason that a group like the Tea Party is so instantly clocked by the Left as fascist and Nazi is because it is White. And White America, as we have been taught by St Martin Luther King, career plagiarist and serial adulterer, is metaphysically guilty of an unpardonable crime. Hence, to have Whites ask for more freedom and less government is just a cover for more freedom to do this. It is giving criminals a free hand. It is letting the Nazis off the leash.

Because the majority is White, and White = Racist, it must be curtailed. And eventually, it must itself reduced to numerical minority status. In the meantime, as it is being dismantled, --actually allowing itself to be dismantled, even dismantling itself-- it is the majority's Prime Directive to see to the appeasement and accommodation of minorities. What could be more unselfish? No higher moral value exists.

My relative's astounding pronouncement is the perfect Liberal response as described by Burnham, where the obliteration of one's own people is viewed as an expression of ethical virtue and participation in a higher synthesis. At least the Muslim bombers only commit suicide one at a time. We're all doing it together. And not under threat. By invitation.

It has taken the fifty-year unfolding of, to paraphrase Heidegger, "the inner truth of the Civil Rights movement" for me to realize what it is actually about.  It was an absolute PR triumph. For a very long time, the moral rightness of it seemed unimpeachable to me.



What we were sold

Now, I feel quite the contrary. Whatever moral capital Blacks once had, they have squandered it completely and without remainder. It is an unfolding catastrophe: the dwindling American nation held utter hostage to its most dysfunctional and destructive minority, a 12% minority which completely refuses any responsiblity for its lamentable state. They constantly complain of their victim status in White America, held down by our racism. In fact, without us Caucasians holding them up, they would sink like a stone.


What we got



instead



If you let yourself think about it all, it would drive you to violence. (And that, as we know, is unthinkable.)

*This "imbalance" is carried out in terms of White and Male oppression and privilege. The extraordinary and hugely disproportionate wealth, power and influence of Jews, for instance, is never to be mentioned. NonWhite minority under-representation is considered a crime. But to notice the astonishing over-representation of Jews in education, culture, media, entertainment, finance, law, government, etc. is taboo. Any critique of this group is an inducement to The Holocaust. (So a lot of people --Liberals, mostly, transfer it to critique of Israel and Zionism.) As majority Whites, they are submerged into the massa damnata along with the Gentile Caucasians. As Jews, they are protected as a Sacred Victim Minority, a role quite jaw-droppingly at odds with their actual socio-economic and power status. Some successful groups are indeed more successful than others.

Over and under representation is usually a fixed game, not worth engaging in. In real life, it is what we call nature. The recent drop in my historically high philo-Semite index comes entirely from the recognition --brought home to me by people like Dennis Prager, himself a Jew,-- of the massively Leftist influence of the great majority of Jews. Were their politics and cultural influence different, it would not trouble me. But Prager himself makes it plain that the majority of Jews (even though very few of them are religious) carry within them a deep animosity to Christianity and a reflexive fear of any kind of national identity based on actual kinship...except Israel. So if you think that a White and Christian America --the one that existed for 200 years-- is/was a good thing, you have to look skeptically at a group that is inimical to both, even if you value individuals within that group. Conspiracy is a poor explanation of facts that culture by itself can explain.

Hey, given the unfolding influence of LGBTism in the West, I, a gay man, can sympathize with the overt "homophobia" of less "enlightened" places. If you can see how the game finally gets played out, why let them play it at all? I have come to understand the motivations for "homophobia" and "racism" and "antiSemitism." To say nothing of "Islamophobia"or my most recent favorite, "antiziganism." A lot of these attitudes are based on the quite rational recognition of inter-group competition, conflict and hostility as one of the structures of earthly and human reality.

It is the natural drive of any group --contemporary suicidal Foolish Whites excepted-- to take advantage of any advance by aiming for another. Whoever expects Blacks or Hispanics or GayLesbianBisexualTransgenders or Wymyn or Muslims to say, "Well, thanks, I got what I wanted, so I'm going home now, satisfied" knows nothing of human nature. As Lenin knew, thoroughly oppressed people never revolt; it's only when you accommodate them a bit that your head goes on the block.

You're echoing my thoughts a little. A response to some of my recent comments? Or did I get your thoughts rolling. You and I both see that there is no such thing as a "middle ground," an equal sharing of power. Power is only ever held by one group until it is transferred, willingly or by force, to another, who hold the power until it is transferred yet again, if at all.

The group that springs to mind is LGBTs. I deeply disdain Russia's new law, but seeing the de facto junta that LGBTs have formed in this country, I understand it. Even the "no PDAs" thing doesn't bother me as much now that I have had a chance to think about it; I have a similar policy to avoid "giving scandal" (my Catholic is showing!). Flannery O'Connor had a similar view living in the South: even though she supported desegregation, she decided that revealing her opinions would run counter to the majority culture of the South and disrespect her neighbors. Whatever happened to, "your house, your rules"?
