Progressives utterly reject nation state legacy and identity

Really?

Excerpts From: "Dreams from My Father." by Barack Hussein Obama

"If nationalism could create a strong and effective insularity, deliver on its promise of self-respect, then the hurt it might cause well-meaning whites, or the inner turmoil it caused people like me, would be of little consequence."

on nationalism: "whites are responsible for your sorry state, not any inherent flaws in you. In fact, whites are so heartless and devious that we can no longer expect anything from them. The self-loathing you feel, what keeps you drinking or thieving, is planted by them. Rid them from your mind and find your true power liberated. Rise up, ye mighty race!"

"This process of displacement, this means of engaging in self-criticism while removing ourselves from the object of criticism, helped explain the much-admired success of the Nation of Islam"

not sure what your point is other then his dad decided nationalism was no cure

liberals today in the west associate nationalism with racism

even on this forum

just look at my recent exchange last night

Americans today are willing to forgo national identity in the name of destroying racism and that has killed the country basically

of course their own national identity which they do more often than not while the majority group self flagellates over fears of racism but only that committed by themselves

racism concern is in the end..a red herring for the goal of progressive utopia
