This was the question/title of a
Telegraph article, to which I responded with the following:
An ideology of white racial self-denial and self-contempt, which denies, demonises and suppresses as “racist” the natural ethnic foundations of national identity and genuine nationhood.
It’s not just Labour, of course, but being an extreme leftwing ideology, Labour has embraced it with more fervour and passion, certainly than the Conservatives. Not coincidentally, it is the exact but equally extreme and insane opposite of Nazi racial ideology, which initially it was an understandable overreaction to (as well as to the injustice and inhumanity of Jim Crow and Apartheid). An overreaction which, in the aftermath of the Holocaust, was quickly consolidated into the ideology of post-racial multiculturalism, and now serves all western democracies as a secular replacement for medieval church ideology and an instrument of political and social intimidation and control.
Original Sin (man’s disobedience of divine, i.e. priestly/state authority) have been replaced by “Racism”, i.e. racial prejudice (the natural human inclination to identity with members of one’s own tribe, e.g. race or ethnic group), which only submission to priestly/academic/political/state ideology and authority can save us from eternal damnation for, not as heathens and heretics, as in the past, but as “bigots” and “racists”.
In lands of “ideological colour-blindness”, which all western states now are, the colour-blind (or those who feign it) are Kings, i.e. have access to all positions of power and influence (in politics, the civil service, the judiciary, the media and, of course, academia, through whose hands all members of our elites, along with the teachers who teach our children, pass at university), while those who refuse to comply with state ideology are denied access and made social pariahs of.
Reco2 responded with the following comment:
“opposite of Nazi racial ideology.” Which is good.
To which I answered:
“Equally EXTREME and INSANE opposite of Nazi racial ideology”, I said, which is NOT good.
To dismiss race as a “social construct” only of importance to evil “racists” is just as insane as Nazi ideas of a Germanic master race.
Race is REAL, and important. Not in the way that racial supremacists believe it is, but because central to any deep and meaningful sense of both personal and group, i.e. genuine national, identity.
It is not race that is a social construct (expect when you try dividing closely related peoples of the same subcontinent into different races, as the Nazis insanely did), but the state itself, which is also “power-political construct”, deceitfully posing as our nation, in order to legitimise itself, its political elite and the immense power they wield.
Which explains why the the state (with the support of its privileged clients/employees in academia) is so determined to deny, demonise and suppress the importance of race.
