We Can’t Save The American Dream By Pretending Everything Is Just Fine

Shapiro’s ideology makes a lot more sense if you understand it as a ChatGPT-esque AI bot, but trained entirely on 2003-era GOP talking points and ignorant of everything that happened since. It all sounds nice, until you talk to anyone normal and see it’s completely divorced from actual reality.

The American Dream WAS a promise that if you worked hard, you could make it no matter the circumstances you were born into. But that promise has been inaccessible to tens of millions for decades, due in large part to policies Shapiro himself pushed. Take mass immigration, for example.

“I don't give a good damn about the so-called 'browning of America,’” he said in 2017, as the country was flooded with third-world H-1Bs and refugees from the Middle East wars he demanded. And before he comes in and says he was only talking about the need to care about ideology more than ethnicity, the third-world only has one ideology: the ideology that elects people like Zohran Mamdani to loot people like me.

There are no Zohran Mamdanis without mass immigration. But the problem is even bigger than that.

White men in this country have been systematically locked out of the American dream for decades. They fought its wars and forcibly bailed out its corrupt bankers only to find themselves passed over for job after job because they didn’t pass corporate America’s diversity tests.

And the free market? A market that allows the mass importation of low-cost slave labor subsidized by its country of origin for the purpose of boxing out the men whose families built the nation and died for its freedom isn’t free in any meaningful sense.

Or let’s talk about housing. The American Dream WAS the idea that if you worked hard enough and saved, you could buy a house near your parents and grandparents. You kid raise your kids watch them ride their bikes down the street to Grandma and Grandpa’s house. Your kids might even go to college one day.

After decades of artificially easy money, which simultaneously ballooned housing prices while making the dollars those men saved worth less and less, those homes are now beyond unaffordable. They’ll never be able to save the money necessary for the down payment, let alone afford the mortgage payment.

And forget about retirement. The manufacturing base that made careers at and pensions from one company is long gone, sold to China, which immediately stole all the IP and then started dumping the same products, but of much lower quality, back into the U.S. at below-market prices, once again subsidized by one of America’s foremost global enemies. At least Wall Street got rich off the off-shoring of the American economy.

And college? You can again forget about that. Good luck affording $50,000/year, assuming your child even gets admitted ahead of a blue-haired they/them or an illegal immigrant somehow getting subsidized in-state tuition, all for the privilege of your child being taught he’s racist and evil because of the color of his skin.

And forget even discussing health care, the least-free free market in history. For those who are blessed enough to afford a home, you can guarantee their health insurance premiums alone are higher now than their mortgage payments. And that’s before the insane deductibles kick in.

Does anybody believe in 2026 that if a straight, white, Christian man “works hard and makes smart and virtuous decisions” that he will be allowed to partake in the American Dream? Because if you believe that right now, you are nuts. Some may squeak through the cracks and make it big in spite of the filters designed to keep them out, but those are the exception, not the rule.

Is the American Dream dead forever? Absolutely not. The solutions are actually really simple. But to get to the point where we can implement them requires us to tell the truth about the current situation rather than spewing nonsense about a country that hasn’t existed in decades.

Shapiro says “this process requires free markets, free minds, equal justice before law, and social fabric.”

The major markets in this country are not free. Free minds are systematically targeted and punished. Equal justice is a joke, and if you disagree, I have two words for you: Anthony Fauci. And the social fabric? It’s been ripped to shreds by fifty years of mass immigration of a magnitude that makes assimilation impossible.

This is bigger than Shapiro, or Tucker, or Israel, or Iran, or whatever stupid pet issue or personality the eye-poppingly rich podcast class is currently obsessed with.

Our country lives or dies based on how we address the very real problems that have put the American Dream far out of reach for most people in this country. What won’t solve those problems is lying about them and pretending everything is just fine using ridiculous talking points that bear zero resemblance to what’s actually happening on the ground in this country right now.

Why do so many democrat states limit cruelty to animals but greenlight child sacrifice?

So they can appear compassionate without infringing on their sexual liberty. https://t.co/tMial8JdCQ

Healey isn't the only pro-abortion governor to pass laws protecting animals while killing babies.
At least 5 other governors from the 10 abortion up to birth states have passed similar animal laws.

But why the corollary? Read about it here:

Yesterday I went to Minneapolis polls disguised as a Muslim woman.

Poll workers were going to let me vote in other people’s names, and then vouch for 8 other unregistered foreigners.

Full video coming soon. Stay tuned.

Sportsbooks like @FanDuel and @DraftKings have enormous control over state politics.

They’ve basically bought their own regulatory regimes.

MA. Gov Healey passed an abortion law up to the point of birth 2 days ago.

A human person's pain doesn't matter to Healey, but the household cat's does.

Last year, Healey passed a law banning cat declawing because it is "inhumane." We are living in an upside-down, pagan world.

People who talk like this about “woke 1.0” don’t seem to grasp, or simply refuse to acknowledge, that “the worst SJW nonsense of the early 2020s” wasn’t just annoying. It ruined people’s lives and livelihoods, tore families apart, wrecked cities, and literally killed Americans.

@LifeNewsHQ Horrible and evil, but unsurprising.

Healey has been backed by Planned Parenthood ever since she became Massachusetts’ attorney general in 2014.

@johnddavidson In Healey's press release, Dominique Lee, President and CEO of Planned Parenthood, MA, says, “Passage of this law brings us one step closer to realizing true reproductive freedom in Massachusetts."

I think you figured out their next step past unlimited abortion.

Post-Christian America means a lot of things, but one of them is legal abortion up until the moment of birth. The next step after this is legal euthanasia of infants, which I’m sorry to say is absolutely coming.

There is one party that is imperfect.

And there is one party hell bent on destroying children in every way they can be destroyed.
