And it only gets better from there. You know you want to read it all, it is from Victor Davis Hanson.

Great article by VDH. The coalition of collectives will be after him soon enough.

Based on modern Leftist actions and dogma, E Pluribus Unum is dead, garbage from old white men.

VDH is almost as funny as Mark Steyn in a droll sort of way. Just the title of this essay makes you want to read more. His "intersection" metaphor, playing off the ridiculous "intersectionalism," cracks me up:

Good-ole gaffe-prone Uncle Joe Biden, 76 and time-tested liberal, can’t make it through the roundabout of intersectionality without a major crack-up. He flipped upside down to assure primary progressive media and primary kingmakers that he was once wrong about cutting off Anita Hill during the Clarence Thomas confirmation hearings three decades ago...

"Can't make it through the roundabout of intersectionality" - LOL.
"He flipped upside down" - LOLOL.
He "cut her off" - LOLOLOL.

I see this on another blog as well, one which does not attribute it to VDH. Did he write this for amgreatness.com or was it lifted from another source?

The postmodern Left doesn’t really care about Truth.
They care about Feelings.

I’m all done with the racism, sexism crap.
I feel the way I feel. I’m sure the Left respects that.

I no longer make any apology or excuses for anything in that arena. Racism is a boring topic and I don’t discuss it. I don’t care how anyone feels on that topic — I guess they are entitled to their feelings, but I just don’t care.

Did “e pluribus unum” ever work? We now have e pluribus excrementum.

Well, at least no one ever needs to wonder how Germany of the 1930’s happened. The one common denominator is the ostracization of straight white males.

When the socialists come into power in America, it would happen as quickly here as it happened in Germany...except that white males are armed here and Jews weren’t there. That’ll slow it down some.

Great, fun read.

And yet despite the authenticity of Harris, she, like Joe Biden, is reckless: she was a loud megaphone for reparations until her obviously embarrassed father, who is apparently proud of past parental efforts to ensure that Harris successfully assimilated and integrated into the dominant culture, reminded his daughter that their shared ancestry included Jamaican slave-owners: in effect, schooling Kamala that the Harrises would have to seek reparations for the descendent Harrises from the descendants of the Harrises.

I missed that one. It's hilarious.

I've yet to meet an intersectionalist social justice warrior who has thought the thing through. If, in fact, one's political rights depend on how many oppressed classes in which one can claim membership, the logical conclusion is what we've known all along: that the only proper repository of political rights is within the individual citizen, not any class. Intersectional calculus of oppression falls instantly like the stack of cards that it is. If you split that hair fine enough what you always end up with is a class whose membership comprises precisely one.

I'm not sure who first pointed out that the move away from the American "melting pot" was initially popularized by NYC Mayor David Dinkins, who always spoke instead of the "gorgeous mosiac" - the analogy where each individual piece is cobbled together but stubbornly retains its sharp edges and characteristics.

Of course, what works with tiles doesn't work as well when building civilizations - where "balkanization", and it's inevitable breakdown into tribal violence, is the norm.

e uno plures = divided we fall.

Which is exactly what they want.
