Much noise has been made over Trump’s recent decision to withdraw troops from Syria. A lot of people are talking about how we shouldn’t betray our friends–it’s un-American!!
Well, that’s interesting. Backing out of deals with friends is quite the American pastime. We are quite similar to the Brits in that way.
I don’t wish to be unfair, and I do think we ought to honor our agreements, in general. But I am certain that the American Indians and the Poles and Hungarians under Soviet oppression either roll their eyes or laugh somewhat bitterly at the public hand-wringing over American “friendship.”
We can’t even keep our promises to ourselves! How many promises are made by our leaders that are simply abandoned once they step off of the campaign trail? At least the potential of withdrawing from Syria might be a promise that Trump keeps. We shall see.
Hypocrisy is a common moral charge these days. It’s practically old hat. Whenever it is raised, I really wonder how people ignore all the logs in their eyes. Of course, seeing one requires having some degree of moral conscience, in which case the charge of hypocrisy is that much more baseless.
In any case, what does this have to do with the Kurds?
It’s a shame, to be sure. They are far from the only people suffering oppression at the hands of their powerful government/neighbor. And I am certain that we are not getting the whole story.
But I am highly skeptical of claims which place Kurds in the role of children that need our protection. Is this what you actually believe? Maybe it’s objectively true, but then you should come out and say that you do not believe the Kurds are capable of self-defense. Perhaps the only way for them to survive is for Turkey to be eradicated. Is that the case? What, then, about the next nasty neighbor?
In such a view, the Kurds are basically pandas, an evolutionary dead end that, without our wise and powerful intervention, will go extinct.
Now, I don’t know the Kurds well enough to know how true this is. I do know that they aren’t children. I suspect they have pride in who they are. I would expect that they will fight to the last man to survive.
When you combine the infantilization of the Kurds with the complete silence around the crisis of white population replacement, I just find that I can’t care about the Kurds. We have a massive survival crisis happening right under your noses, but you keep pointing to the other side of the planet!
Now, yes, it is possible to address both problems at once, assuming you have the resources. But I haven’t heard majority reports from the mainstream talking about the demise of white people in anything but positive terms.
And that is probably getting to the core of the problem. Advocating for white survival is racist, according to the mainstream narrative. Asking why we are fighting for Kurdish independence immediately stabs into this nerve. You don’t even have to mention the crisis at home to be attacked.
It is kind of fun to strike at it obliquely, however. Suggest that an egirl redirect her hormones from foreigners to raising her own children and woooowheee do you spark some fire.
