The
Supreme Court Outlaws Plain English
The big buzz right now is about Supreme Court
decisions. On affirmative action, the Court decided two things.
First, the Court struck down a college
admissions system which gave a member of each racial group a certain
number of points. You got some extra points for being black or
Hispanic and whoever had the highest number of total points got
admitted.
The Supreme Court decided that this system of
giving each racial group so many points was not what the Founding
Fathers were thinking about when they wrote the Constitution. They
said it was too openly anti-white.
But in another case the Court decided that,
while giving actual points for being in a minority group was too
much like a straight quota system, states do have to favor
non-whites.
In this latter case the Court decided that
diversity is a good thing and government should favor non-whites
over whites to achieve diversity. But you can’t do it in a blatant
way like a points system.
So if you put this in plain English the Court
made two contradictory decisions, one for racial discrimination and
one against racial discrimination.
The Court said that you must divide up a pie
and give more to minorities without giving less to whites.
This proposition does not work if you use plain
English. That is what the points system does. The points system
puts discrimination in plain English.
So the Court struck down the use of straight
English.
On the other hand the Court said states must
favor non-whites. It declared that diversity is “a compelling state
interest.” The logical problem here is that it is impossible to
discriminate FOR somebody unless you discriminate AGAINST somebody.
Our national policy defies logic. So the
Court outlawed logic.
The Case Against Diversity
All respectable conservatives have to insist
they are “melting pot” fanatics. To be a respectable conservative
you have to be the first to condemn anyone who criticizes Holy
Diversity Itself.
Those of us who have always condemned
integration (which was the old name for Diversity) have always said
that if different races are together, they will be in conflict.
Those of us who opposed integration (now known
as “diversity”) said that “diversity” would end freedom of speech.
We said that a society with two equal races cannot talk frankly
about race.
Since then every country where you have
different races and a doctrine of Equality has imposed Hate Laws
that imprison people for saying the wrong thing.
Those of us who were always against
integration, a.k.a., Diversity, always said that government cannot
be neutral between different races. In a democracy, someone will
take advantage of race, just as someone will take advantage of
anything else.
The recent Supreme Court decisions said we were
right. The Supreme Court just declared that government must favor
non-whites over whites.
The court says that is good because diversity
is good.
We who opposed integration, now known as
diversity, have argued for fifty years that you cannot have
Diversity and speak plain English. In the name of diversity, the
Supreme Court just outlawed both logic and plain English.
Conservatives Begin by Surrendering
You cannot have racial diversity and freedom of
choice.
The Supreme Court just said that.
The Supreme Court has ruled that it is "a
compelling state interest" to keep whites from going to the school
of their choice.
More to the point, every country which
proclaims diversity has outright hate laws or policies which limit
freedom of speech for the sake of diversity. Every
university which proclaims diversity has Draconian penalties for
saying the wrong thing.
No conservative can say either of these
things and be respectable.
Every respectable conservative must agree that
“the race question is very complicated.” In other words, it can’t
be dealt with by simple English and simple logic. When you agree
with that, you have surrendered the important points.
California Today is the Diversity Showcase
The last Republican California governor tried
to stop giving welfare to known illegal aliens. Republicans have
lost every state-wide election since then.
The last Republican governor of California
believed what conservatives keep saying. Conservatives are for
diversity, so they say that Hispanic citizens in California,
including those of Hispanic descent, are just as American as anybody
else. Since Hispanic Americans are as American as anybody
else, they would naturally join with the overwhelming majority of
their fellow Americans citizens in America and support the rights of
American citizens over illegal Mexican immigrants.
The last Republican governor of California bet
everything on the idea that, “Regardless of his ethnic background,
an American is just an American..”
When the question of denying welfare to illegal
aliens came up, California’s Hispanic population had a choice
between backing Americans and backing illegal aliens from Mexico.
Diversity had a chance to prove it was a very American thing
When push came to shove Americans of Hispanic
descent in California took the side of illegal Mexican immigrants
over other people with United States citizenship papers. As
always, the minute you try that melting pot crap out in the real
world, it collapses.
Did conservatives admit this was a defeat for
their silly "melting pot" ideas? Of course not.
Did liberals admit this was a defeat for
“diversity”? Of course not.
Liberal commentators tell us that the
Republican proposition to deny welfare benefits to illegal aliens
was political suicide. They tell us that conservatives were insane
to imagine that Americans of Hispanic descent would think of
themselves as Americans first and Hispanics second.
In other words, it doesn’t matter whether or
not A Hispanic calls himself an American. His real loyalty
naturally goes to other Hispanics.
That is how Diversity really works.
Diverse California is in a state of Permanent
Disaster
California is coming apart politically. It
has just had an unprecedented energy crisis. The government of
California is about to go bankrupt. The governor is being recalled.
Why is all this occurring just now?
It just so happens that the last California
census showed that Diversity had scored a historical triumph: For
the first time in this century California’s English-speaking white
population is a minority.
The Democrats control every branch of the
California government. California Democrats openly rule by
combining liberals in a common front with minority groups against
native English-speaking white Americans, the “Anglos.”
It so happens that Democratic policy since that
historic census has been such a disaster the governor is up for
recall. They had a crushing energy crisis and they are now facing
bankruptcy.
It so happens that, now that it has True
Diversity, California politics is working just as well as Mexican
politics work. Instead of moving toward the American standard of
living, California has taken the first steps toward a Mexican
standard of living.
And as long as “diversity” is “a compelling
state interest,” California will keep sliding down.
The race problem is not complicated. Diversity
is bad.
