A Glimpse Into Conservative Thinking

979397E7-8581-4898-BCDD-CE0F61A09E8DFox News host Laura Ingraham issued a dire warning to America. “This is a national emergency, and we must demand that Congress act now,” she said.

What is this “national emergency” that Ingraham is so upset about? Well, here’s what she said:

“In some parts of the country, it does seem like the America that we know and love doesn’t exist anymore. Massive demographic changes have been foisted upon the American people, and they are changes that none of us ever voted for, and most of us don’t like. From Virginia to California, we see stark examples of how radically, in some ways, the country has changed. Now, much of this is related to both illegal, and in some cases legal immigration that, of course, progressives love.”

Whoa! “Massive demographic changes…that none of us ever voted for, and most of us don’t like.”

So who is this “us” that Ingraham is referring to? Hmm, let me think. Could it be white Christian conservatives? I think it just might be.

Is this conservative Fox News host being blatantly racist? And is she reflecting the feelings of the majority of conservative white Americans? Sadly, I believe she is.

And now for something completely different

Now that Vice President Mike Pence has officially laid out the plans to create the Space Force, Jimmy Kimmel has aired the first Space Force recruitment video. Enjoy.

    Scary, they must be getting desparate to be so blatant. So where did her family come from?
    Creepy. I guess the Globe is too big for small minds.

    Thank you once again for making, once again, all conservatives into a single stereotype instead of living breathing human beings. I sometimes forget that I’m not actually a person, but only the caricature that you want me to be.

      I’m not saying that ALL conservatives are of one mind. I am suggesting, however, that the majority of conservatives, based upon the fact that 90% of Republicans, per almost all polls, unquestionably support the policies and actions of Donald Trump, including his blatantly racist immigration policies, and believe he’s doing a great job.

    The majority? I’m not quite sure (but cringe). Too many, though. (I’m glad not you [or me], James.)

    Trump and his immigration czar, Stephen Miller, appear to believe that their war on immigrants – even legal ones – will energize their base ahead of the midterms. Aug.07.2018

    Months ago, they talked about cutting down on the very kind of visas that Trump counts on. (Not that he was going to change his ways, or course. He will make sure he gets what he wants.)

    I have conservative friends who are not racists, but they still support Trump. I have to wonder what WOULD it take for them to stop supporting him. When Nixon turned out to be a bad guy, his fellow Republicans turned against him ~ they didn’t say they’d rather be wiretappers than Democrats.

    Now here’s the problem.
    If we were even to say that out loud in the UK the thought police would be round to ‘re-educate us’.

    Having said that, the majority (and I do mean the majority) are sick to death with the immigrants getting better care, welfare, and social housing, than our ‘needy side’ of our indigenous population.

    Damn it, someone just knocked on the door.

    Immigration is breaking up Europe since the population see it as a threat to their lifestyle. When the going gets tough we always look for a scapegoat but we are nice and friendly when the skies are sunny and blue.
    Scapegoat politics becomes worth while and those with an eye on power leap in to take up the reins. In a world of dog eat dog competition politics is a great profession since it has access to unlimited funds that can be channelled as required. The other great gravy train is the legal trade and when things get rough they rub their hands with glee as rich men cannot live without them.
    In the UK lawyers and their minions have pleaded with tearful faces that the government continue to support those who cannot afford legal fees. The pretence is that they are making sure the law is available to all , a very noble act.
    Behind all this activity is the great pyramid of wealth which has existed throughout history ; war , changes of government , religion and technology have had little effect on the pyramid it is a permanent feature and is due to unchanging human nature.

    Fox News (and msm in general) is undoubtedly retarded. But there is something in this post (and many arguments I see from anti racist people in developed countries all around social networks) that is unintelligible for me as a non American. Will non-Christian and non-conservative white Americans actually vote to be racially replaced in a democratic referendum? I suppose people can demand such a thing if they want to and of course I don’t see any evidence that Americans are already being massively and systematically replaced right now but it still sound weird that people in certain countries desire ethnic replacement while in the past (and in present in almost all non western nations) a nation wouldn’t accepted it unless after years of full scale wars and rebellions. If anyone decides to change the demographics of the city in which I live the way Londoners have changed theirs in recent decades, there will be a call to arms.

      In another 20-25 years, white Americans will be in the minority. As a white American, I don’t really have a problem with that. We are all humans, and we are all Americans (in this country), and I think we all just want to live in peace and in harmony with our neighbors. Am I naive? Maybe, but it beats “a call to arms.”

        I agree to some point. Much unnecessary blood has been spilled to keep nations racially and culturally distinct (just imagine how many innocent lives would have been saved if the Palestinians thought the same way in 1948 or Indians in 1857 as you think today). However, I think the world would particularly miss many aspects of white culture once it’s dissolved. I mean, the prediction that white people will be minority in their historic countries has not yet fulfilled and I already wish I could have visited pre diversity London or Paris. Regardless, I’m too sentimental to comment about such issues rationally since I actually feel deeply sad that there is no modern day Ctesiphon or Babylon :/

    Forcing diversity on the English, Scots, Welsh and other sections of our society has been a disaster for the UK. It has split communities, caused white flight, conflict, terrorism, allowed the formation of ghettos because of cultural and religious differences, and is doing it’s darnedest (with the help of government) to destroy our base culture, religion, and traditions.

    With the constant bleating (if not raving) from the government and media about racism, multiculturalism and religious tolerance, it has driven most of the ‘indigenous population’ towards what is called by the government ‘right wing extremism’ but is simply people growing less accepting, if not outright rejection, of ANY alien cultures (and their religions) coming into our once peaceful nation.

    So when the majority voted for BREXIT, a huge motivator for some was the influx of ‘EU foreigners’ into our country adding to an already volatile situation.
