“The West suffers from a strange self-hatred that one can only describe as pathological; although the West tends to be laudably open to other values, it no longer tolerates its own.
I would suggest that, to the intellectually honest and well-informed, there's nothing in what you wrote that is controversial — that only someone disposed to taking exception to the truth would object to your essay.
“What made white flight another point that ate away at my previous beliefs, was the realization that even when whites are victimized and driven out of an area by crime and ethnic conflict, they get no sympathy; instead they are blamed, and derided as racists.” — A fine example of the anointed/“elites” gaslighting operations.
I was glad to see Thomas Sowell mentioned. He's most certainly a sage, and is as good as anyone when it comes to debunking the sort of widely accepted bullshit narratives the parasite class is so fond of.
Yes, white managerialists get to denigrate everyone suffering from their policies and feel good about it by calling them racists: "You don't like the consequences of our social engineering? Racist!"
And agreed, Thomas Sowell has made good use of his voice. He shines very brightly in his social and cultural commentary.
I think countries like Sweden are some of the most compelling evidence that there are serious issues around how we understand race and immigration. I sadly don't see much of a solution, though. The immigrant groups in question have already pretty much proved they aren't all that interested in assimilating into the existing cultures of where they are relocating to -- if they were, there wouldn't be the (frankly horrifying) statistics of violence, rape, and other crimes that we are seeing.
Thank you! Yes, viable solutions, are difficult to envision. But it may be that the biggest hurdle is simply coming to terms with the problem -- I don't think most Westerners are there yet, but when and if they get there, then there where will be a widespread will to work out a solution, and once there is a widespread will then there will be a way, or at least that will be more likely.
I agree about the issues with coming to terms with the problem. People who study such things, or have personal experience (Aayan Hirsi Ali comes to mind, or the people in the UK who have spoken about the Pakistani rape gangs, for example) have known about the issues for quite some time, but their efforts to disseminate them to the wider public have pretty much been foiled over the years by those invested in the prevailing narrative. But I think the mass public is also partly complicit in that, because so many seem to prefer an ostrich mentality -- "if I pretend it doesn't exist, then I'm safe" -- I'm half-a-dozen of one and six of the other as to whether it's because they are comfortable the way things are, or because the facts scare them too much. Probably some of each.
"I don’t know what the solution to this is, but I do know that it starts with acknowledging that there is a problem."

I'm already knowledgeable that we, degenerate uman animals, are UNABLE to CHANGE into a Balanced and Compassionate Being. I've Millennia after Millennia of Knowledge that shows that to me in a very vivid and transparent way, and I accept it.
As cogent as ever … thanks!

Very interesting essay, Jordan.
