| Democratic Dystopia: End Anglo-America, Welcome The World, Evict The Unborn |
| 2019-08-08 |
| [Barley a Blog] How does one distill the worldview of the Democrats vying for their party’s presidential nomination? Outrace each other on racial righteousness? End Anglo-America? Welcome The World? Evict the unborn? Speak Spanish; English is your second language? All the above‐and worse. On display, again, during the second in a series of Democratic primary debates were the racial (read anti-white) dynamics. Genial uncle Joe Biden, a meek WASP, bowed and scraped to his multicultural rivals, whereupon they set upon him like a flash mob; a multicultural mugging, Pat Buchanan called it. Race‐more accurately, anti-white politics‐is the Democrats’ central cri de coeur. They have no other passion other than hounding and excommunicating others for what are thought crimes‐for thinking, speaking or tweeting in politically unpleasing ways. But practicing ageism gives these social-justice warriors no pause. There’s no social justice for the aged in Democratic politics. Leading the purge of the party’s elders was Eric Swalwell, a nasty bit of work who had mercifully dropped out after the first round of debates, late in June. At the time, Swalwell had demanded that older Democrats "pass the torch." "[I]t’s time to pass the torch to a new generation of Americans." "If we are going to solve the issue, pass the torch. If we are going to solve climate chaos, pass the torch. If we want to end gun violence and solve student debt, pass the torch." Swalwell obviously thought such ugly sloganeering was a winning strategy. And who can blame him? However, other than a writer for the cause at the Atlantic, the representative from northern California galvanized nobody with his call to expunge Democrats in their dotage. "The Millennial Left Is Tired of Waiting," said writer intoned. Curiously, that magazine is packed with verbally incontinent Millennials, yet still makes for a monotonous, monolithic read. |
