When someone asks, “What’s the big deal with immigration from Arab countries or Haiti? They’re only X% of the population,” set every other issue aside and focus on November. Have you seen how close our elections are? A voting bloc representing just half a percent of the electorate can decide a close election. It doesn’t take millions of voters to fundamentally alter a nation’s politics. Demographics matter. I see this as the political equivalent of Democrats packing the Supreme Court, except instead of changing the composition of the court, they’re changing the composition of the electorate itself. Far more consequential, and in my view, far more perverse.

We aren’t responsible for people who enter our country illegally, especially after warnings to self deport and offers of financial assistance. Our compassion should go first to Americans struggling to afford life amid rampant inflation and the costs of illegal immigration.

You don’t have to endorse history to believe it deserves preservation. The arsonists (Marxists) would rather destroy what they don’t like than allow future generations to learn from it.

I know this is hard to rewire, but anti-immigration isn’t racist. It’s standing up for American citizens of every race and creed. What is anti-American is imposing inflation, suppressed wages and lost opportunity on citizens while weaponizing compassion to build a voting bloc.

I’ll bite on the claim that earlier immigrants assimilated, so today is no different. Pretend Catholics vs. Protestants and English vs. German speakers were comparable to today. Were schools hanging flags from 50 nations, declaring “diversity is our strength,” while government immediately enrolled newcomers in generous welfare programs? Or were newcomers expected to assimilate, rather than America adapting to them? Today people sneer at anyone who even questions assimilation. In fact, we increasingly encourage newcomers not to assimilate, instead reshaping public life to accommodate their cultural differences. And for those invoking history, have you actually studied it? German businesses were attacked, their language driven from schools. Irish Catholics faced violent nativist mobs and burned churches. Assimilation wasn’t some effortless celebration of multiculturalism. It took generations, conflict and enormous social pressure. This below is the destruction of America.

Reading The Pioneers last night, this passage about the earliest settlers of Marietta stood out: “Those who had more resources, lent, or gave, to those who had less.” An early frost had destroyed much of their harvest, leaving families facing starvation. Yet these people worked through their shared struggle by helping their neighbors, giving what little they had to those with even less. Before the massive welfare state created widespread dependency, Americans understood their obligations to family, neighbors, and community. We’ve slowly transferred those responsibilities, and the loyalties that came with them, to the state. We didn’t eliminate the obligation to care for one another, we replaced the bonds of family and community with dependence on government. That’s the Marxist impulse.

I fear this post earned me a few hundred sports meme followers. I love a good shitpost, but this isn’t a sports account. Mostly just me defending opinions aligned with the men who founded this country in 1776. My views haven’t been mainstream in 250 years. You’ve been warned.

I’m supposed to be angry about this after y’all defaced and melted down monuments far older than this one, honoring men Eisenhower himself greatly admired? Spare me the pearl-clutching over an accident.

If you’re here for sports takes, please don’t follow me. I’m here to shitpost and defend opinions that were last considered mainstream in 1790.
