In his dotage Bill Buckley developed a sad record of turning on his conservative friends. Buckley had socialized for years with liberals- wasn’t Galbraith one he often mentioned?- and some think that he was seeking to ingratiate himself with that society as the years went by. I’ve read a number of accounts from people who knew him well, I think it was Peter Brimelow’s that was one of the most insightful.
I wrote a big rant and deleted it but it comes down to this:
Because of the Holocaust which many perceive as Jews being murdered en masse at the hands of RIGHT WING nuts...by the millions
that today in America ..no matter how openly and disproportionately Jewish progressives and leftists work to destroy our culture and replace it with something they would prefer
that we cannot criticisze them as Jews for being pretty much decidely anti Christian traditional culture
because of the horrors of the Holocaust...
and political correctness...they have been given one big blanket pass for being our cultural enemies and cannot be named as such
and if one does then he will go the route of Buchanan and others
that pretty much sums it up I think
one caveat...folks won’t be so cowed forever
and only whites are polite about it for the most part
blacks are already openly hostile to Jews as a rule when it suits them and they get a pass easier
I do not for the life of me understand why even Jewish leftists have such antipathy for the predominate culture in a a nation which has been more welcoming and prosperous for them than any they have ever inhabited as a distinct minority
just look at this thread...smears galore...all over little old mostly irrelevant Pat
yet never ever ever a thread on the reverse side of the same coin..
do folks ignore the obvious or have they been brainwashed or browbeaten into denial?
Wow, I had never read Peter Brimelow’s writing of Bill Buckley’ passing before now. All my vague impressions were in fact true! That was interesting.
