Conservatives Reject the Proposition Nation

It’s more than a little late, but conservatives are finally beginning to shake off the absurd idea that America is not an actual nation of people, but an idea:

It the recent NatCon conference in Washington, D.C., Sen. Eric Schmitt of Missouri delivered a powerful speech about American identity, arguing that our nation isn’t merely an abstract proposition about human equality and rights, but a distinct people with a shared past and a common future.

“For decades, the mainstream consensus on the Left and the Right alike seemed to be that America itself was just an ‘idea’ — a vehicle for global liberalism,” Schmitt said. “We were told that the entire meaning of America boiled down to a few lines in a poem on the Statue of Liberty and five words about equality in the Declaration of Independence. Any other aspect of American identity was deemed to be illegitimate and immoral, poisoned by the evils of our ancestors. The true meaning of America, they said, was liberalism, multiculturalism, and endless immigration.”

Not so, argued Schmitt. America’s principles, he said, are not abstractions. “They are living, breathing things — rooted in a people and embodied in a way of life. It’s only in that context that they become real.”

This is absolutely correct. Those who would reduce America to an abstract proposition either misunderstand or misrepresent our history and heritage. As I argued at NatCon last year, nearly everyone who argues that America is a proposition is wrong about what the proposition is and what it means. “All men are created equal” is a specifically Christian claim, not a universal call to multiculturalism and mass immigration. It emerged as a political ideal from Christian Europe, and arrived in America by way of settlers and pioneers who came here specifically to establish a nation where they could practice their Christian faith as they saw fit.

In other words, America isn’t a grab-bag of Enlightenment tropes about free speech and equality, but the product of Christian Europe. The ideals that animated our founders are universal in the same way that the Christian faith is universal: God created all men equal, they all bear the imago Dei, the image of God, and are all His children. But the only people who ever took that self-evident truth and used it as a foundation on which to forge a new nation were the English colonists in America.

The fundamental falsity of the proposition nation can perhaps be most obviously seen in the way that “a nation of immigrants” has subsequently been applied everywhere from England and Sweden to, most recently, Japan, of all places. It’s a psychological operation, not a philosophical truth.

Collapse by 2050

A leaked Chinese geopolitical strategy document reveals China’s self-confidence. The document predicts, “The US and Western Europe will collapse due to cultural and demographic conflict by 2050.” China’s leaders increasingly see multiculturalism as “cultural suicide” and believe the west is dying because of it.

—CNN

The Chinese aren’t wrong, although my 2004 estimate for the initial breakup of the USA as a unitary political entity is 2033. The EU has already begun to break apart and the centrifugal forces will continue to grow stronger with the failure of its economic war against Russia. The USA, the UK, and every Western European country are either going to collapse into a violent partition like India circa 1947 or embark upon ethnic cleansing on a larger scale than the Israelis are currently applying to Gaza.

Multiculturalism isn’t just cultural suicide, it is societal suicide, which is arguably worse. The Chinese know this; Xi is not only smart, and not only has the benefit of being advised by Wang Hunin and other brilliant historical philosophers, but is also a student of the greatest political mind of the 20th Century, Lee Kwan Yew. So he knows what we all know, and what Clown World refuses to accept, about multiculturalism.

That’s why Russia is now selling 106 billion cubit tons of natural gas to China every year in lieue of the 160 billion cubic tons it used to sell annually to Western Europe. The Russians, too, know who is going to win in the long run.

Softly, Softly Clucked the Conservative

The media’s house conservatives are now being permitted to wonder if perhaps maybe things were allowed to go just a little too far in ignoring the will of the people:

Preliberal democracy accepts the practice of regular elections but rejects most of the core values of liberalism: free speech and moral tolerance, civil liberties and the rights of the accused, the rule of law and independence of courts, the equality of women and so on. Turkey under the long reign of Recep Tayyip Erdogan typifies this type of democracy, as did Egypt under the short reign of the Muslim Brotherhood’s Mohamed Morsi.

Postliberal democracy, by contrast, embraces the values of liberalism but tries to insulate itself from the will of the people. The European Union, with its vast architecture of transnational legislation, is one example of postliberalism; international courts, issuing rulings where they have no jurisdiction, are another; global environmental accords, like the Kyoto Protocol and the Paris Agreement (signed by the Obama administration but never ratified by Congress), are a third.

Standing between these two models is old-fashioned liberal democracy. Its task is to manage the tension, or temper the opposition, between competing imperatives: to accept majority will and protect individual right, to defend a nation’s sovereignty while maintaining a spirit of openness, to preserve its foundational principles while adapting to change. If the frustration of liberal democracy is that it tends to proceed in half-steps, its virtue is that it advances on more secure footing.

That’s the ideal that much of the West essentially abandoned in recent years. On the political left but also the center-right, postliberal policymaking largely determined the outcome of the two most basic political questions: First, who is “us”? And second, who decides for us?

Merkel never sought the approval of German voters to relax the country’s immigration laws and take in nearly a million people over the space of a year. Americans didn’t elect President Joe Biden on any promise to let in millions of migrants over the southern border. Post-Brexit Britons never thought they’d bring in an astounding 4.5 million immigrants to a country of just 69 million between 2021 and 2024 — under Tory leaders, no less.

No wonder the reaction to years of postliberal governance has been a broad turn to its preliberal opposite.

The conservative solution, of course, is not solution.

There’s something partisans of the center-right and center-left could do: Instead of discreetly murmuring that, say, Merkel or Biden got immigration policy wrong or that it was morally and economically right but politically foolish, they can grasp the point that control over borders is a sine qua non of national sovereignty, that mass migration without express legislative consent is politically intolerable, that migrants ought to be expected to accept, not reject, the values of the host country and that hosts should not be expected to adapt themselves to values at odds with a liberal society.

Forget that. The nationalist position is moral, just, and perfectly easy to understand.

Game Theory and Foreign Insourcing

The transformation of Silicon Valley into Mumbai-by-the-Bay was no accident:

Built by Americans. Captured by Foreigners. Post #1 How foreign interests infiltrate, capture, and gut American companies from the inside.

This is no longer a theory. It has happened. And we have the blueprint. In 2023, a U.S. attorney exposed how a company he worked with was quietly taken over after hiring a foreign CEO. The new CEO, backed by a private equity firm, removed the original American founders. Then he filled every C-suite position with executives from his home country. No diversity. No objectivity. Just a complete executive sweep. Within months, 15% of the American workforce was laid off. But the jobs didn’t disappear. They were filled by imported workers on visas. The firm was transformed from the top down, one relationship at a time. “He replaced every executive with someone from his country. Every single one.”

“My sister’s company went through the same thing. She’s the only American left on her team.”

“This is everywhere. And nobody is stopping it.” This is how it begins: leadership capture. One executive opens the door, and the network follows. Soon, referrals dominate hiring. Americans get passed over. Merit takes a backseat to connection and caste. The story was reported in Business Today and LiveMint, and originally shared by a U.S. attorney on X. No company name was shared. That’s the point. This could be your company. Your team. Your job.

In this series, we will break down every phase of the takeover. With citations. With legal records. With receipts. They didn’t just take the job. They took the company. And they’re not done yet.

The concept of a pure meritocracy is inherently and uniquely post-WWII American. No other culture shares it, although the degree to which they ignore merit and are content to simply parasitize and pillage the existing capital and infrastucture varies widely from culture to culture.

It’s a uniquely stupid philosophy, since it is, by definition, a self-terminating one. All it takes, as we’ve learned, is one X to find a position in HR, in the immigration office, or on the board, and a port of entry has been established to bring in more X until enough influence has been brought in to start denying entry to everyone who is Not-X.

It’s a very simple exercise in game theory, and the extent to which the American executive class failed game theory can be seen in the percentage of U.S. CEOs and board members who are not American.

Diversity Enriches Switzerland

Not even the uber-civilized Magic Dirt of Switzerland is enough to maintain order once a sufficient quantity of societally incompatible non-Europeans have been imported.

Dramatic riots have erupted in a Swiss city after a migrant teen was killed in a scooter crash while fleeing the police. Riot cops clashed with protesters who hurled Molotov cocktails in Lausanne as officials desperately tried to put a lid on escalating violence. The unrest comes with the Olympic capital’s police in the spotlight after four officers were suspended Monday following the unearthing of racist, sexist and discriminatory messages in private WhatsApp groups.

Marvin M, a 17-year-old Swiss resident of Lausanne, was fleeing police on a stolen scooter, hit a wall and died early Sunday, despite resuscitation attempts by emergency services. It was the third death in less than three months in Lausanne during a police intervention. There have been seven such deaths in the city and the wider Vaud region since 2016. Five involved men of African origin.

On Sunday night, ‘around 100 young people, wearing balaclavas’ set fire to several containers and damaged a bus, police said. The following night, 150-200 people set up roadblocks using trash containers, setting them on fire, police said. Some 140 cops clashed with the rioters, who torched buses and pelted them with stones.

Lausanne authorities sought Tuesday to head off a third night of violence in the Swiss city.

The problem is that the solution is a counterintuitive one for the social justice bureaucrats, whose entire philosophy and system of values render them unable to even begin to address the problem, let alone solve it.

Ironically, Lausanne’s best bet is to promote the four suspended officers and put them in charge of establishing and maintaining order, as they are the only authorities who clearly understand the nature of the challenge that has been created by incompatible immigration.

It’s been really fascinating to observe, over the course of two decades, how Europeans have gone from self-righteously preening about “America’s gun problem” to belatedly realizing that America never had a gun problem, America has an African problem that the Europeans have now brought upon themselves.

To quote the great historian Martin van Creveld, “Immigration is war”.

UPDATE: The vibrant youth also attacked a politician from Switzerland’s largest political party.

During that night, a Swiss People’s Party (SVP) politician, Thibault Schaller, was targeted in a lynching attack, which was caught on video. He wrote on X that he approached the unrest because he was curious what was going on. Upon getting closer, some individuals, whom he said he believed to be Antifa, recognized and confronted him.

“They ordered me to leave. I refused and asked what was happening. One pushed me, I pushed him back then stepped back. Someone shouted something, and 10, 15 people came running at me from everywhere. I ran away, took hits. They blocked my path, I fell, protected myself. I got up, ran, got surrounded again against a wall, then took blows. Then, I managed to get away by running. I’m fine, but we really need to take back this city,” Schaller wrote.

As I have previously pointed out, regardless of how one feels about immigrants, refugees, or fuzzy bunnies, there are two, and only two possible options for every Western country that foolishly opened its borders to the world, and soon, apparently, Japan. One is the repatriation of all non-European peoples. Two is mass violence. And everyone who opposes the former is implicitly choosing the latter.

The Virginian Began to Hate

The eminent John C. Wright feels a stir of righteous militance in his breast:

British police have ARRESTED a 14-year-old girl for fending off a migrant Paynim child molester?
… a 14-year-old girl ??!!
Enough is enough.
Invade England.
Free the people. Expel the invaders. Hang the ringleaders.

In fairness, the USA has invaded countries for less. I’m just kind of curious how the Clown Worlders think this is all supposed to work out for them. I mean, it’s obvious that war, and a particularly nasty form of war, is going to take place across the West. What I can’t quite figure out is how they think they’re somehow going to be immune from its consequences.

Unless they’re just suicidal agents of evil. In that case, it makes sense. Or, I suppose, stupid servants of evil without any sense of self-preservation. That would work too. In either case, Great Britain is now observably Gulag Britain.

Nigel Farage is a Fraud

He was against mass deportation before he was for reduced mass deportations.

Your three and a half page ‘policy’ document is weak as piss, Farage. How on earth has it taken you so long to cobble this together? This isn’t mass deportations. Your ‘plan’ barely scratches the surface. 500k deportations? It’s not enough. It’s pathetic. That needs to be quadrupled, at least. You stood across from me in that Essex hotel room and instructed me to remove the term ‘mass deportation’. You told the Telegraph it was a ‘very grave, dark and dangerous use of language’. Were you lying then? Or now? Which is it? Radical problems require radical solutions. There easily will be two million plus illegals by 2029. Likely far more. They ALL need to go. Not some, as you are suggesting. But all. Britain needs real mass deportations.

And then get started on the incompatible so-called “legals”. Multiculturalism has failed. Multiracialism has failed. There are no “nations of immigrants”. And there is no such thing as an “idea nation”.

There are two choices left. Mass repatriations based on race and religion or war. That’s it. And we’re in this ugly situation thanks to all the evil people, the stupid people, and the nice people who bought into the ridiculous Clown World rhetoric.

And the more time that passes, the more it becomes likely

Punjabis United Against America

While actual Americans are horrified by the needless deaths of a family, the Punjabis are trying to get their fellow Punjabi who was responsible let off the hook for his crimes.

We, the undersigned, urge Governor Ron DeSantis and the Florida Board of Executive Clemency to re-examine and reduce the sentence for a 28-year-old truck driver involved in a fatal U-turn crash on Florida’s Turnpike in South Florida. This was a tragic accident — not a deliberate act. While accountability matters, the severity of the charges against him does not align with the circumstances of the incident.

Key Considerations & Precedent:
No criminal intent or history: The incident was a catastrophe, not a criminal act. The driver has no prior record and fully cooperated with authorities.

Petition Requests:
Consider alternative sentencing options, such as restorative justice measures, counseling, or community service, aligning with both accountability and compassion.

Conclusion:
By granting clemency, you would reaffirm the value of proportional justice, the power of community advocacy, and the potential for rehabilitation. We believe this case is not just about one individual—it speaks to the broader principles of fairness and mercy in the justice system.

With deep respect and hope,

Collective Punjabi youth.

I suspect Americans would vastly prefer to see the “Collective Punjabi youth” repatriated to India than see their petition honored by Gov. DeSantis.

There is no such thing as a “multiracial nation”. The concept of “multiculturalism” is a lie. There are always and only multiple nations competing for control of a society’s resources, culture, and laws.

Off to Never-Never Land

An high-ranking pedo was not only released and allowed to leave Nevada after being arrested and charged, but was even permitted to flee the country:

A senior Israeli official was arrested in the United States earlier this month and charged with seeking sexual conduct with a minor, only to be released on bail with no conditions or monitoring, allowing him to flee to Israel. The case involving Tom Artiom Alexandrovich in Nevada is now stirring controversy, with politicians and social media commentators accusing the government of interfering in the judicial process to allow the cybersecurity official to return home without facing justice.

Court records from Nevada’s Clark County show that Alexandrovich was charged with luring or attempting to lure a child online to engage in sexual conduct – a felony that carries up to 10 years in jail in the case of a conviction. He was released on a $10,000 bond, but no monitoring appeared to take place.

Richard Davies, a criminal defence lawyer in Nevada, told Al Jazeera that the apparent lack of conditions on Alexandrovich’s release despite the seriousness of the charges was “fishy”.

“Average Joe gets arrested, he would appear in front of the justice of the peace within 24 hours. The justice of the peace in that county would issue bail conditions, which very typically would include a GPS device, restrictions on movement, not being allowed to leave the state,” Davies said.

“So the fact that this individual was not only allowed to leave without an ankle bracelet or a GPS device, not only to leave the state, but also leave the country, is highly unusual and suspect.”

This is why no more dual-nationals can be permitted to vote or hold office anywhere in the world. Whether they are Jewish or Somali, it has been repeatedly demonstrated that the only thing they really care about is their fellow nationals, which most certainly does not mean Americans even when they happen to be U.S. citizens. Dual-nationalism shouldn’t even be legal, and at least in the USA, it’s not even actually law.

If it’s true that the U.S. government was not involved, then Occam’s Razor would focus attention on the nationality of the judge who let the pedo run away to what is apparently a sanctuary zone for child abusers.

The Jeeting of Texas

It turns out all of that “don’t mess with Texas” talk was just that, talk.

A Texas housing developer was forced to deny that a new community being built in the Dallas area will be exclusively for people from India.

Sankalp Developer became infamous for the now-viral tweet that claimed they were building ‘a development by INDIANS for the right INDIANS.’ The tweet reads: ‘INDIA FIRST!’ The post does not specify where the supposed development would be located, however, Sanklap is based in Frisco – a wealthy suburb of Dallas.

In recent years, Frisco and neighboring communities like Plano, Prosper and Celina have been flooded by Southeast Asians, in what used to be majority white parts of the state. In the boom town of Celina, Telugu (a language spoken on the subcontinent) has overtaken Spanish as the second most spoken language in its prized school district, according to local reports.

However, the man in charge of Sankalp tells Daily Mail there is no truth to the post, which he learned about on Wednesday evening. ‘Obviously not,’ Sankalp CEO Mukesh Parna said in a phone interview Thursday.

But don’t worry, Mukesh Parna says it’s not true. Obviously not true.

At some point, high-trust people are going to have to get it through their thick, but incredibly naive skulls that if you allow one low-trust person into your organization, your executive team, or your society, they are immediately going to devote all of their efforts into bringing in more low-trust people from their identity group to the exclusion of everything and everyone else.

Different peoples from different cultures have different standards. This should not be a difficult concept for anyone to understand or accept.

There are over one billion jeets in the world, which means there are more than enough of them to replace every single American and European employee and executive in every single company. And if you’ve enjoyed the high-quality technical support you’ve been receiving from outsourced call centers for the last 30 years, then you’re just going to love the quality products and high-value service that you’re going to receive from organizations that have been comprehensively jeeted.
