The task of any nation is to be Godly, meaning good for Life.
|
||
|
||
Each time a detractor points to death brought by the West, we can point to vastly more Life. All nations have us to thank for advancing the human condition.
|
||
|
||
There are no set lines to what is “Western” and what is not - only degrees. However, we know some things are more Western, and more prosperous, than others: Christianity, Property Law, and our Western languages.
|
||
|
||
We must not base our opinions on hate, but on building and protecting what we love. It is right to be angered by evil, but not to be consumed by it, or to seek it where none exists. We must push out evil from our lands, without falling to mobs or hatred.
|
||
|
||
The world is in more disarray because we have left it so. We, the men of the West, have left the world to decay while we indulge in pleasure, giving money to leeching business and votes to terrible politicians.
|
||
|
||
We must rise, we must bring order again, we must expand our cultures and lands, and we must go to Mars.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Why Are We Here?
|
||
|
||
Each Man in Nature, According to his Ability.
|
||
|
||
The men of our societies know too much comfort. It is because national expansion has been relegated to the dustbin.
|
||
|
||
The comfort sector of our culture is, largely, the corporate sector - the sector that makes money from consumerism and short-term pleasure.
|
||
|
||
“Feel-good” philosophy is a direct offshoot of this sector -
|
||
“Take a break. You’ve earned it.”
|
||
“Love is love”
|
||
“Tolerance”
|
||
|
||
These values are promoted by big businesses because they are what are most profitable. If everyone can just “get along”, if corporations can make people forego all struggle or values in favor of “feeling good”, or “treating yourself”, then the CEOs will be the rulers of all. So, they try.
|
||
|
||
Now clearly, there is nothing wrong with multinational cooperation and multiculturalism. But it is not to be pursued at all costs - for many, it has become a religion, and this is wrong.
|
||
|
||
The religion essentially believes that business and business values - tolerance, extreme politeness, refusal to have concrete opinions - will win over all others. This is, in some ways, the libertarian belief.
|
||
|
||
Many libertarians are hypothetically opposed to these liberal values, but they don’t realize that they are a natural offshoot from the idea of business as king, and government as weak or nonexistent.
|
||
|
||
Most liberal business leaders only care about our immediate desires. What will we buy today? But they don’t think about where we will be tomorrow.
|
||
|
||
Comfortable nations can create a race to the bottom by adopting consumerist culture. This consumerist culture creates businesses which provide questionable value, and hire employees who are similarly questionable.
|
||
|
||
Many marketing, finance, and communications majors in America are examples of the consumerist race to the bottom. They provide little value, and often work in capacities that are self-stroking.
|
||
|
||
This race to the bottom is not due to a fault of government legislation, but due to a fault of the will and vision of the nation.
|
||
|
||
Too much strife can also be a cause for concern.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Life is a River
|
||
|
||
We humans are on a search for life, and quality of life. I.e. - Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
|
||
|
||
National expansion has been extinct in the West since Hitler. The horror of his genocides, alongside the threat of the nuclear bomb, have confronted us with our own fallibility.
|
||
|
||
However, Life is not still. Life will expand or contract; only death is truly still. Attempting to preserve an unnatural stillness in Life will only result in excessive strain. This strain will only result in contraction.
|
||
|
||
In other words - one cannot tread water indefinitely in the river of Life. We must continuously swim to a better position, rest, and repeat. Otherwise, the river’s current will push us to a worse one. This is the process of Life, and it goes on forever.
|
||
|
||
It is the process our ancestors followed, all the way until 1939 - when the Germans chose to embark on a hasty and perilous grab at better position. The hastiness costed not just the lives of millions, but also the collective will of Europe.
|
||
|
||
Even the United States, which grew within its borders, has never much ventured outside them. We added two more states, in 1959, achieved the nice comfortable number of 50, and called it good.
|
||
|
||
Nothing is wrong with what has been done - what is wrong is that little has been done since. Malaise is a strong, gripping force. Elon Musk knows this all too well in the technological sense - being the first man to again equal the achievements of 1969 -
|
||
|
||
This idea is not just true in a technological sense, but also in a political one. Systems and societies do not automatically get better over time. When societies lose milestones and ambition, they may have nice times in the short term but identity crises in the long.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Our Place in the World
|
||
|
||
Technology
|
||
We occupy the practical middle-ground between barbarism and utopianism - both of which are terribly destructive ideologies.
|
||
|
||
We oppose the ideology currently known as Globalism, meaning the sudden smashing together of incompatible cultures in the dream of a perfect & interconnected global society.
|
||
We promote the use of technology for increased collaboration between nations with similar ideals and beliefs - “The West” - in order to further the interests of our citizens and cultures.
|
||
|
||
We understand that a wanton pursuit of perfect and complex order - the globalist pursuit - actually produces more chaos in the world, because it is a brittle ideology that does not succeed in the face of cultural opposition.
|
||
|
||
We understand that to bring order and light in the world, we must recognize what is, and prioritize it more than what could be.
|
||
To bring order and light into the world requires the willingness to face danger, and to take risks. These risks cannot be with haste and recklessness, but to gradually improve the world around us.
|
||
To bring order and light into the world, we must be good citizens, not merely elect good leaders.
|
||
To bring order and light into the world requires two traits: morality, and ability. To be leaders, we must exemplify both.
|
||
|
||
Globalists & Jihadists
|
||
|
||
Most societal problems come from those who know too much strife, and those who know too much comfort - the violent poor and the negligent rich. Viewing the West as one entity, these two predominant factions easily reveal themselves.
|
||
|
||
The global yin-yang - bearing in on the West from left and right - is the liberal globalists and the aggressive jihadists. The liberal globalists are present in every Western nation; the jihadists are more present in Europe than America - and, ultimately, a greater threat than America’s violent poor.
|
||
|
||
From this point, the globalists (as they are commonly known today), will be called “tolerators” - because tolerance is their religion. They believe, broadly, that all problems in the world come from humans being mean, and, thus, if everyone just tolerated each other and is nice - everything will be fixed! Most of them believe that the only thing holding back a perfect or pseudo-perfect society is a handful of human decisions.
|
||
|
||
Broadly, we face the pincers of globalists who believe in heaven on earth, and jihadists who believe in eternal struggle. Between Brave New World and 1984; between idolizing what we love and caving in to what we fear. It is the Christian nation’s duty to find the balance.
|
||
|
||
The difficulty with these poles is that they have made an unholy alliance with each other - the globalists import Muslims who are more right-wing than the most fervent Christian nationalists, and the Muslims love to come because it is free land.
|
||
|
||
It is truly evil - and I do not use this word lightly - because of how hypocritical and stupid the plan of the tolerators is. It does not work - these radical minorities do not become liberal because of the handouts, and if the Christians were to somehow be defeated the Globalists would be left with a far more terrible and contrary population to their values.
|
||
|
||
The globalists are derived directly from Christian society. They have “evolved” from Christianity because they have become rich and insulated, and now that they think this prosperity their natural state, they dislike Christianity because it seems to hamper paradise. So, they import an even more contrary minority simply for the pleasure of seeing the Christians reduced in power and the fantasy of having a different voter base.
|
||
|
||
These very immigrants are successfully multiplying and spreading because they are fervently right-wing - and yet the globalists attempt to deny Western Christians any similar pride, heritage, or nationalism because they hope we will go extinct, and foolishly believe the Muslims will come to their side.
|
||
|
||
The Muslims, meanwhile, have no intention of doing so - like all men, they simply want more land. They see free land being offered, pried away from its original inhabitants, and, of course, they take it. They don’t assimilate, and they don’t become liberal. They simply multiply. Now, Muslim countries are forming political parties for their little Western colonies. These colonies conduct politics in the Western system without ever speaking the language. By the time the isolated globalists begin feel the effects, we, the regular western citizens, will be all but burned away. This is what will happen if unequal law enforcement and indiscriminate immigration is allowed to continue. It cannot be allowed to continue. Immigrants must assimilate, and criminals must be deported. The globalist coup must end.
|
||
|
||
All societies have these poles - America, for instance, has a problem with crime in poor, African-American inner cities. America also has a problem with crime in wealthy liberal cities (i.e. San Francisco) who have given up prosecuting crime altogether. Sometimes, the wealthy liberal city and poor minority city is the same city.
|
||
|
||
These factions individually exist in most Western countries (and indeed in almost all countries). However, they also exist in aggregate.
|
||
|
||
America, of course, has its own problems with migration, but because it does not border the Middle East, the problems are much milder. Mexicans and Central Americans are largely Christian, and they are far more amicable and willing to assimilate than Muslims.
|
||
|
||
Therefore, while it is imperative that America curb all illegal immigration, and prevent all drugs and violence from entering, there is plenty of opportunity to work together with the Hispanic immigrants. We should think of these Hispanics as potential allies and future Westerners because, practically, they are - most of them are hardworking Christians who are willing to learn English.
|
||
|
||
As long as we can ensure legality and assimilation, we can afford to let in many more of them than Europe can afford Arabs.
|
||
|
||
However, where America is concerned, there are also better opportunities at play. Instead of simply letting the Hispanic immigrants in, we should be meeting them where they are. Instead of wasting $10 billion on a wall, we can build hundreds of factories near the border. Thus, we can
|
||
1. Accelerate the removal of manufacturing from China
|
||
2. Vet immigrants without immediately letting them into the country
|
||
3. Ensure that these immigrants are safe and have work
|
||
4. Bolster American manufacturing
|
||
5. Expand relations with the Mexican people
|
||
6. Combat Cartel Violence
