We are at that point in society as well. Many of the legacy institutions that were created by our forefathers are no longer in the business of serving actual American citizens who love freedom and have no idea how to have a complicated Starbucks™ order. Here’s a partial list:
- Immigration: Right now, ICE is on the side of the illegals streaming across the border. Not you. You can apply this to most government (both federal and big city) agencies. Disagree? Ask the January 6 Protestors if they think they got a fair deal from the DOJ and FBI. The only reason the FBI isn’t spelled KGB is because they don’t know Russian.
- Most Colleges: I can post academic after academic engaged in the vilest hate speech. Do they lose their jobs? Because it’s directed at you and me, which is okay and is covered under policy 364.3.d. But make a joke about a trans-GPA 4.0 student living in the body of a 2.0 student? That’s not allowed.
- The Military: The officers on the Right have been under attack since (at least) Obama. Good luck being promoted if you don’t agree with the Left. With things like illegal alien lesbian mom recruiting videos and mandatory Vaxxing, well, they’ve done their best to filter out people in the lower ranks, too. Thankfully the most reliable fighting force in the history of the United States is vaxxed illegal alien lesbians.
I will note, however, that it is different for the elites: if you read biographies of successful people you almost invariably will find that if they didn't directly benefit from nepotism or having wealthy parents, they had a mentor or benefactor of some sort that opened the right doors or got them in touch with the right people or otherwise helped get them into that all important school, program, or job that made their careers. I'm not saying that they didn't put in hard work, but that there is a big difference when working your way up the ladder from starting on the bottom rung versus starting halfway up.
Anyway, John discusses some other institutions that are failing us and adds:
And, this is the good news: these institutions aren’t going to save us. They actively despise us and are doing everything they can to destroy us and erase us from memory. I mean, apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, a fresh water system, and public health, what have the people on the Right ever created?
Like I said, that’s the good news.
Why? Because, just like I discovered in college, it should change everyone’s mindset. Our fate isn’t in their hands, but instead it’s in our hands. When I see people like Andrew Torba building out GAB™, I know that he’s out of the victim mentality, and is building a future that doesn’t depend on the Left. Vox Day is doing something similar with multiple initiatives, from his Arktoons® to Arkhaven Comics™ to Castalia House© (publishing) to Infogalactic© (Wikipedia® without the Leftist Overlords).

Christian churches are another legacy institution that has become more interested in serving "refugees" that serving the Americans who pay, via donations, to support those churches. These churches no longer adhere to the values we adults were inculcated with as children.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately you are correct. Too many people believe there is a higher virtue in helping "refugees" and illegal aliens than helping others in their congregations or American citizens in the local community. And there is an appalling lack of concern over the consequences of their actions.
DeleteAgreed.
