The Movement You Need…

As I’ve written before, the twin dogmas of ‘multiculturalism’ and ‘diversity’ are not a healthy component to be carelessly grafted upon any nation that relies upon a republican form of democracy. When you glom together peoples whose convictions about the way things should be differ too radically there cannot be agreements about what is right and what is wrong. There can be no good end. At best the result will be cultural retardation and stasis. At worst, it will spark a conflagration - a clash of civilizations.

Fjordman writes on these topics again, eloquently.

A Communism for the 21st Century

We are told to treat cultural and historical identities as fashion accessories, shirts we can wear and change at will. The Multicultural society is “colorful,” an adjective normally attached to furniture or curtains. Cultures are window decorations of little or no consequence, and one might as well have one as the other. In fact, it is good to change it every now and then. Don’t you get tired of that old sofa sometimes? What about exchanging it for the new sharia model? Sure, it’s slightly less comfortable than the old one, but it’s very much in vogue these days and sets you apart from the neighbors, at least until they get one, too. Do you want a sample of the latest Calvin Klein perfume to go with that sharia?

We should remember that this view of culture as largely unimportant is essentially a Marxist view of the world, which has now even been adopted by segments of the political Right, united with Leftists in the belief that man is homo economicus, the economic man, the sum of his functions as worker and consumer, nothing more.

This is just a wonderful piece of exposition. If you care about your country, your culture and your family, you’ll be well-served by reading it.

Culture and ancestry are far more important than mere ’social constructs.’ If Western Civilization and its nations are to survive, we have to make that fact very clear to those who would shout us down with false accusations of bigotry and racism. If caring about one’s birthright as it pertains to passing it on to one’s children is wrong, then I guess I’ll just have to be wrong.
