Britain had a moment of silence for George Floyd. Our politicians kneeled en masse to show their outrage at his killing. "I can't breathe" became a slogan.
George Floyd died on the other side of the world. He wasn't British.
Henry Nowak *was* British and his treatment by the police was shocking and negligent in the extreme. Yet there is no minute of silence. There is no coordinated public campaign. There is no kneeling at sporting events.
And we all know why.
During the summer of BLM, some people said "All Lives Matter". This was treated as the highest form of racism and anyone who said this was immediately cancelled. Why? Because the people in charge don't actually think all lives matter in the same way.
They have created a racial hierarchy of victimhood where a career criminal who died through mistreatment by police in a foreign country with 0 evidence of racism like George Floyd is automatically sanctified because of the colour of his skin.
And Henry Nowak, a British man, one of ours, is automatically dismissed and ignored because of the colour of his.
This is the ugly fruit of so-called "anti-racism", an obsession with race that has created a two-tier society which treats people differently because of the colour of their skin.
This needs to stop.
The problem with Iraq and the Iraq War wasn't that Iraq didn't have WMD. It did. Chemical weapons at the very least are in absolutely zero dispute. It's widely recognized that they hid other WMD in Syria before the hammer fell.
The problem with Iraq and the Iraq War was the disastrous Bush Doctrine, which was a particularly globalist-friendly splinter strain of neoconservative thought that bucked Reagan for the crooked ambitions of the Bushes.
One of the biggest lies we're told today by the "no new wars" crowd is that all foreign war-making by the United States is effectively Bush Doctrine pseudo-neoconservative nation/democracy-building, when that's simply not true. Reagan didn't follow that doctrine, and Trump very much doesn't follow that doctrine. Trump's approach is a specific version of something called "engaged realism," which you can look up for yourself and learn about (and you'll probably agree with).
It's totally easy and defensible to criticize the Bushes and the Bush Doctrine without losing your mind about American conservatism, the Republican Party, America, America's role in the world, American strength and power, American dignity, American pride, or American projection of interests throughout the world, which benefit you and every other American immeasurably.
It's perfectly reasonable to believe that America is great and capable of doing great things and that the world is a far better place than it would be otherwise because America is great and does great things.
It's patriotic, good, and healthier to accept a positive view of America and its role in the world and to reject Critical America Theory and all the douchebags who peddle it.
I promise you, if you ditch Critical America Theory, you will be happier, healthier, saner, more positive, more attractive, and stepping into leadership in the next generation, and if you don't, you'll slowly degenerate into hate, madness, trash, and Leftism. It really is that cut-and-dry, that simple.
