Over the Cliff

 

America and the West are profoundly self-hating and self-destructive. We claim to be liberal in our philosophy and culture. And we even semi-sincerely believe it. But our illiberal enemies know the truth. And, deep down, so do we.

Thus America and the West refuse to decently defend ourselves or defeat our enemies. Even tho we easily can. But Americans and Westerners lack the intellectual, moral, and spiritual self-confidence to try. Absent a reasonable level of self-respect and personal honor, we think we lack the intellectual and moral right to do so.

America and the West say our societies possess and defend objective truth. But the reality is we possess and defend skepticism of reason and religion. We say we back individual rights, liberty, and capitalism. But the fact is we back regulation, coercion, and welfare statism. We say we advocate and practice justice and equality before the law. But the truth is we advocate social justice and affirmative action. We say we champion self-interest and the Holy Individual. Instead, we quietly champion self-sacrifice and suicide.

This is why America and the West refused to nuke, decapitate, conquer, and liberate the Soviet Union, China, Pakistan, and others when we had the chance. This is why since the 1930s, America and the West have allowed Third World animals, Moslem monsters, and communist devils to steal most of our oil, technology, and intellectual property. This is why since the 1960s, Western Civilization has flooded itself with Third World savages and evil foreign enemies. This is why since the 1960s, whites and males have been racist and sexist against themselves in society and government.

When will America and the West stop being so self-hating and self-destructive? When will we reject the moral ideals of sacrifice and suicide? Only when we convert to the philosophy of true liberalism. If we ever do.
