The shifting human tide: People aren’t just moving into America. There’s also a mass movement of Americans within their own country
American Thinker ^ | 05/02/2021 | Terry Paulding

We’re hyper-aware of the shifting mass of humans pouring over our border and finding their way into our lands. Immigration from below the border has swelled over the last 60 years, more than half of it legal. It’s not the first time, nor the first group, but rather a perpetual flow into the promised land by the have-nots who don’t seem capable of creating their own thriving societies, despite their potential to do so.

Over the centuries, we’ve had such influxes on repeat, from all quarters; most of us can be numbered among them. The Irish, over 8 million by 1860. Jews have perpetually found sanctuary in this country, with an upswing after WWII. The Vietnamese after their war. We have always been a nation of immigrants including those unwillingly brought by the slave trade. Just about all of us know we’re better off here than wherever our ancestors originated.

Yet the “here” we have is changing in new ways. I’d like, for a moment, to veer from the incessant race preoccupation we’ve been bludgeoned with of late. I will however state that we are not an inherently racist society, despite the left’s unwavering dedication to that evil concept. Just looking at intermarriage statistics is a good antidote to such thinking.

Consider, instead, the shifting population within our country. We are, as a people, moving away from city life in droves. Houses in my suburban enclave sell as soon as they are brought to market, often for absurd amounts above the asking price.

I had a conversation with my doctor last week, as she’s leaving the practice. She told me I should quickly pick a new provider before all their slots are filled. That unlike here in the burbs, the city offices of their practice are practically empty.

One of the most frightening plans of the Dems that trump held off for four years is changing zoning to not allow single family houses.

And bringing the slums to you.

The new neighbors, the trashiest white derelicts and persons of color with arrest records who plan to spend their days planning crimes, smoking dope and drinking liquor as they watch TV-——will be shipped to small cities and towns. Gunfire and knife fights to follow.

Woman I heard last year on Mark Levin called to say her Louisiana town as well as Alabama, MS and GA were getting shipments of thousands of illegal aliens moved there each month deliberately by the government. True, no room in Southern Texas for another million newcomers on the dole. Her theory: tip the 2020 election. She was right. Now the welfare is paid by her and others for the new neighbors to be lazy.

Later in the article he says:
I wonder if we’re simply leaving the cities to the homeless and the migrants, to turn into endless slums where nobody is safe to walk. Soon, the proud leftist mayors will find they have nothing left to ruin. They’ll have succeeded in turning their cities into the kind of slums the migrants just escaped. Perhaps the new guys can show our own homeless how to live well in shantytown.

Disturbing also is those who are moving because of the chaos are the very people that supported this crap for decades in their state

I live in a very rural all white area. Our town has 400 people.

In the last few years farms are being broken up into mini farms 3-5 acres and people movig back who moved away years ago to retirement.

A retired FBI man from VA his his wife who also worked for the federal gov’t bought 8 acres and built a large house.

My wife is their vet and she said they are far left liberal.

I have a feeling we are going to be assimilated

I am moving to a nearby red state where I grew up, the shitty is too dangerous these days, the crime rate is souring and the cops in my county are corrupt as hell, several home/land owners are being persecuted for defending themselves and their property.

NUTS!

......” a perpetual flow into the promised land by the have-nots who don’t seem capable of creating their own thriving societies, despite their potential to do so”......

Exactly right....because their school systems, governments and all... know that the money flow to “help” their countries, and never makes it to the people, would stop. It’s a revolving door.

Thanks for posting this excellent read and look at what has happened to us where we live, our families across the nation and others.

Besides living where we want and working from our home instead of commuting for hours each day to and from a dangerous blue city.

Our buying habits have changed, and most of us don’t want to go back to the old store shopping b$.

Now Back to this excellent Oped article:

The shifting human tide:::May 2, 2021, By Terry Paulding:
(aka our demographics in full action!)

We’re hyper-aware of the shifting mass of humans pouring over our border and finding their way into our lands. Immigration from below the border has swelled over the last 60 years, more than half of it legal. It’s not the first time, nor the first group, but rather a perpetual flow into the promised land by the have-nots, who don’t seem capable of creating their own thriving societies, despite their potential to do so.

Over the centuries, we’ve had such influxes on repeat, from all quarters; most of us can be numbered among them. The Irish, over 8 million by 1860. Jews have perpetually found sanctuary in this country, starting in the 18th century, with an upswing after WWII. The Vietnamese after their war. We have always been a nation of immigrants including those unwillingly brought by the slave trade. Just about all of us know we’re better off here than wherever our ancestors originated.

Yet the “here” we have is changing in new ways. I’d like, for a moment, to veer from the incessant race preoccupation we’ve been bludgeoned with of late. I will however state that we are not an inherently racist society, despite the left’s unwavering dedication to that evil concept. Just looking at intermarriage statistics is a good antidote to such thinking.

Consider, instead, the shifting population within our country. We are, as a people, moving away from city life in droves. Houses in my suburban enclave sell as soon as they are brought to market, often for absurd amounts above the asking price.

I had a conversation with my doctor last week, as she’s leaving the practice. She told me I should quickly pick a new provider before all their slots are filled. That unlike here in the burbs, the city offices of their practice are practically empty. This is because workers who chose the convenience of having their health care provider near the office are no longer going to that office. Instead, they are opting for care nearer home.

Commuter-oriented mass transit is suffering, as well, a huge drop in revenue. City populations are also falling, for all the same reasons.

The other primary reason for an exodus from the cities, especially the blue-run ones, is that they have become hideous and unsafe. Mobs that loot, homeless that live and defecate and shoot drugs on the street, violent gangs…who needs that? Schools stay closed, and when they’re open, are more dedicated to “equity” than learning.

Being a city resident is as dangerous as I’d imagine riding into Tombstone must have been, in the mid-1800s. Our cities have become the wild west but without any handsome cowboys. They are failing, and on their way to becoming unsustainable as business taxes fall, the real estate loses value, and the sales tax revenues dwindle.

This population shift has mostly come about because of the pandemic forcing us to change our patterns of living. But as these patterns changed, so did the former norms of our lives. How we purchase goods shifted. Small businesses were destroyed by forced closure due to COVID restrictions, by looting, and by the ease of buying from the behemoth.

Excerpted, for full oped go to this link:

The best thing for America at this point would be Fed.gov bankruptcy/insolvency. The sooner the better, before leftist social-engineers at the top take complete control, and States can still have some power and can find a way for themselves.

You can move out of the cities, but the Democrats will find you and tax you.

The federal government, when under Democrat control, will take money from you for federal taxes and then give it to the cities.

It’s not just enough to move.

They are NOT going to change their thinking. They will try to influence people around them to agree with them. They helped create a mess for others and now want to live in peace away from any of the messes they helped create. Super wow.

Truthfully written.

Do you believe that wanting to marry and have children within your own race is "racist"?
