Americans have no unique “culture”, and even hinting at one gets one tarred & feathered. The WASP culture died decades ago, along with our birthrate; these “replacement Americans” are being trafficked here to replace America’s missing generation.
The northeast is bleeding businesses and skilled workers/taxpayers (Mercedes being the latest to announce their departure from NJ to Atlanta); these foreigners being imported to this country are to keep our public employees (teachers, cops, politicians) on the payroll and our housing occupied. Dealing with them in a professional environment is difficult to say the least; they are hired for jobs they aren’t qualified for because they are the best candidates at the lower wages, but they fall far short of the previous employees’ preformance/skills. We are adjusting to a “new normal” here that is very Third World, where drafting an email or letter has become the task of the resident American in each department; the little we had in common with co-workers before all but erased.
That's it in a nutshell. The people behind this have no fears, because of the wealth they've been able to suck out of the system, for their progeny. They want indentured servants to Uncle Sam.
So did you like that flavor of leftist koolaid the subversives trickled down your delicate throat?
We have had and continue to have a uniquely American culture, and that culture was embedded in our country by WASPs.
That culture is the culture of freedom, individual responsibility, sacrifice of the Self for others, Judeo-Christian ethics, law and justice, and the concept of private-property ownership and keeping the fruits of your own labor.
That culture has been under assault for well over a century, and it began in Europe who, loathing America’s success, condescendingly declared that America has no culture and is uncouth, simply because we did not have the long history that European nations had.
When the Marxists/Progressives/Socialists fully launched their war on America, a large part of that war included the anti-establishment, counterculture movement. This movement was designed by Soviets to subvert American culture and destroy it. They knew that American culture was too strong and too much loved not only by Americans buy by people all over the world who saw America as the last bastion of the type of life that a loving God designed for us. So those Soviets first had to collapse our culture from within before they could replace that vacuum with their own culture.
This included an assault upon many fronts: class warfare, an attack on traditional roles of masculinity and femininity, an attack on the Judeo-Christian definition of marriage, revisionist history, private property, self-reliance, charity, and self-sacrifice, to name but a few.
Yes, the left has been exceedingly, terrifyingly successful in this war they launched on American culture.
But to deny that America has (and still does have, if we can maintain it) a unique culture that had been the envy of the world before the 1960s, is ignorance to put it mildly.
Quite frankly, it disturbs me to hear someone claiming to be a conservative aping the leftist mantra that there has been and there is no American culture.
Everything the WASPs put in place is still alive (barely) and still functioning (barely). That is why the leftists with Obama as their current Subversion Czar is now running a blitz to kill and buy our American culture once and for all.
P.S. Other than my followup rant, I agree with your post. We are following the same path that France followed. Now the French are crying in their espressos at the ‘bad guys’ in their country. Well, they and their Socialism and their turning away from traditional values forced the country to admit those bad guys to support the economy.
