Victor Davis Hanson: Why Are They Destroying Us?
Twitter ^ | 4/25/24 | Victor Davis Hanson

Why Are They Destroying Us?

If someone wished to destroy America, could he do anything more catastrophic than what we currently see and hear each day? What would an existential enemy do that we have not already done to ourselves?

Here are eleven now familiar steps to civilizational destruction:

1) Wipe out a 2,000 mile border. Allow 10-million foreign nationals to enter unlawfully. Have no audit of any; nullify all federal immigration laws. Let toxic drugs in that kill 100,000 Americans a year. Give free support for those millions who broke the law. Smear any objectors as racists and xenophobes.

2) Run up $35 trillion in national debt. Keep adding $1 trillion to it each 100 days. Defame anyone wishing to cut wild spending as cruel and inhumane.

3). Appease or subsidize enemies like Iran and China. Demonize allies like Israel. Allow terrorists to attack Americans without response. See Islam as either similar or superior to Christianity. Make amends to leftist governments for supposedly past toxic American international behavior. Follow the lead of international agencies like the UN, ICC, and WHO to atone forpast American neocolonial and imperialist behavior. Recede to second-tier international status, befitting American decline.

4) In a multiracial democracy, redefine identity only as one’s tribal affiliation. Ensure each identity group rivals the other for victimhood and the state spoils it confers. Redefine all political issues by race and sex oppressors and oppressed. Destroy all meritocratic standards of admission, retention, promotion, and commendation.

The biggest problem is nobody seems to be doing anything about this myself included. The problem for me personally is I work too much and don’t have time to protest in the streets like rich Columbia university students. I assume this is the case for most people on the right.

As a result we all seem to be sitting around hoping it all turns around in November, but if you ask me, that’s a huge gamble. Why are we assuming these domestic enemies will allow a legit election? They are already cheating and interfering aren’t they with these BS indictments of Trump.

Where are the mass protests of that? Where are the crowds outside Alvin Braggs house? Letitia James house? Merrick Garland the punk who tagged parents of students terrorists but not the punks supporting Hamas shutting down universities and attacking Jews. If it’s OK for the left to protest outside the house of SCOTUS then we should do the same to these phony prosecutors.

Caused by self-loathing Democrats. They hate themselves so they need to make everyone miserable.

Jacobin revolutionaries is the most likely reason for most. They want worldwide communism/fascism and the US is in the way of that.

Nice list. I would add # 12, allowing a political party to destroy the integrity of the election process. #13, having an opposition party so hopelessly incompetent or cowardly that they are unable or willing to campaign on #’s 1-12.

Sorry VDH, but London and Washington DC are the post-modern, (neo) Marxist, globalist centers of the comintern empire now.

It was destroyed in Moscow and moved to the West.

Agreed. That is why Putin is helping them with this charade of a war.

America will either finish folding its tent or look to rebuild in November.

The question that needs to be asked is,

why is there no outrage?

Bingo!

The founders well knew how the average American voter would be busy on the farm 24/7, others would put in 12-14+ hour days in the mills, some would vote as told for the price of a meal or drink, etc. and others would be too intimidated to vote.

They as much as conceded they were giving us a fragile concept, and expected us to choose our political representatives with care (and perhaps a lot of luck).

Imagine paying top dollar to an attorney who signs a contract or swears an oath to represent your interests and then find out he was also being given even greater sums of money by some who had a quite different agenda from yours.

It has been said before, but it is becoming increasingly obvious we are in a bare knuckle street fight for the soul of our nation.

We either select tough, effective politicians who will work as a team and can sort out the issues, confront the opposing "politicians" and take no prisoners, or our nation will fail.

The problem is that the American left hates America. This is different from other countries. For instance, I doubt the French left hates France. The Chinese communist party doesn’t hate China. Etc. But our left hates America, because America is the left’s grand historical nemesis. This basic hatred changes everything. It means our left is just as happy to abuse the country and see it torn down as they are to try to build it up into a model socialist state.

Go to Copenhagen, Denmark, which has had an unbroken string of Socialist mayors since the 1920’s, and you will see a beautiful clean city that’s the pride of the nation. Meanwhile our left has weaponized America’s cities against its own people. Why? Because our left hates the people of this country and considers it a just comeuppance to inflict crime, filth, and disorder on them for the crime of being Americans.
