White is the New Dark
|
White is the New Dark this annoys me so much. on a thread on one of the forums that i subscribe to is a 'myth' that is ascribed to the Sioux Indians- except in the subsequent discussion there is some doubt as to whether it is actually one of their myths. now i respect the guy who said this- and i don't think it came across the way he intended it- but it just annoyed me so much; And if it is modern, I believe it is perfectly justifiable to present it as a myth in order to make it more "interesting". it annoys me because it is a normal leftie ploy to talk about their elevated consciousness and moral superiority, and then shamelessly portray some fortune cookie wisdom as being something ancient and unique. and they don't just stop at these 'pearls of wisdom', history texts are replete with leftie assertions that this or that must have happened without a single shred of evidence to back it up. like the fallacy that there are no Aboriginals in Tasmania because the white man wiped them all out- well if that's true who the hell are claiming all those benefits down there? but getting back to the myth thing- if it is really that good a story why not just present it as a modern fable without trying to sanctify it as something other than it is and denigrating somebody else's culture in the process. if it truly has merit surely it can stand on its own without the kudos falsely derived from another culture? it's not like the Western world does not have a history of mythology of its own to draw from- i doubt there is a in the Western world who wouldn't know a little about Aesop; Homer has been a staple influence on scholars ancient and modern since he first let loose his epics on the world. Germanic and Celtic mythology has come to us surprisingly intact- even the 'fairy tales' have a basis in our mythology and cultural history. even in modern times we have more than enough myth makers to carry any number of civilizations; Tolkien is often described as the distillation of a civilization in one man. though it is current to speak of the Lord of the Rings as an allegory for the Cold War or even as a warning about the rise of Islam, does it really remove from the message of good versus evil; of friendship's place in the struggle against adversity. of course quite a few lefties believe that the books are inherently racist by describing the men of Harad and Far Harad as black whilst forgetting that the Easterlings, Dunlendish and Corsairs are all white. if you don't like Tolkien's 'racism' then read up on your Pratchett- almost every book he writes has at least one passage attacking racism. plus you will have a laugh into the process. we have more than enough myth makers in the West without having to borrow legitimacy from other cultures- unless of course you subscribe to that old lefty mantra; "ethnic man good; white man bad". it is this sort of crap thinking that leaves me ready to throw things. the white man is so racist that he freed the slaves and made it necessary, to be treated as a modern nation, for everyone else to do the same. the white man is so sexist that he voted in governments that pledged women's suffrage. the white man is inherently evil; the white woman redeemed only by her gender. the thing that really gets me is that we pay our taxes to support these whiny little bitches in our own midst. working in shopping centres, every day i see these lefty whiners with their begging bowls and pamphletts and so on. and invariably these little twats will be attempting to blackmail and extort extra money out of people by playing on the notion that our society is inherently corrupt, that we are inherently wrong in anything that we do; all the time being on some form of welfare paid for by the people they guilt. the supreme irony is that by their own rhetoric their efforts will avail them nothing in saving their souls- and that their entrerprise is ultimately evil- but don't tell them that because it upsets the little buggers. it is also wise not to use facts to discredit whatever misinformation they have been taught to parrot- that upsets them even more because then you're attacking someone with 'more integrity in their little finger than you have in your whole body.' the supposition that the White man is inherently evil is being chalenged by the most remarkable of sources- those the left have chosen to portray as victims. even in 2009 we see Indian academics coming forward to praise the Raj, only for the political classes to deny the veracity of their claims- of course without checking the evidence that led to the academic conclusion in the first place. if 61 years after the British left their are still those who can prove the Raj was not the monster history paints it- was it inherently evil? if in the former Yugoslavia we find that mnay people, none of whom were born at the time, long for a return of the Habsburg Empire, does it make the white man evil? or have we allowed ourselves to be the victims of a cruel conspiracy designed elevate the few into moral leaders. Mugabe was a hero of the left- now his people face starvation. at the behest of the left Ethiopia has had its debt forgiven three times- and yet is still in debt for buying weapons to renew the war with Eritrea. the left demands that we do more to combat genocide and human rights violations- but then objects when we send soldiers in to kill the bad guys. the left is so in love with its moral superiority that it can call for any action and the condemn it just as easily- all because it believes the white man to be inherently evil. there is a notion that the Iraq Wars, one and two, were fought for oil. the left loves nothing better than to point out all the evidence that points to that conclusion- of course ignoring anything to the contrary and any interpretation of the acceptable evidence to the contrary- without for one moment realising that their chattering classes could not exist without the free flow of oil. that the despotism national movements have allowed to foster in the OPEC nations have led, directly, to the elevation of lunatics and psychotics to positions of international influence. the support of the OPEC despots was crucial to the piss weak nature of both the Geneva Conventions and the Hague Accords. that oil in the hands of the governments of these countries is wasted in the procurement process because these countries are more interested in elevating the upper echelons of their societies to obscene riches than in investing in new equipment to reduce pollution and lower the oil price. far easier to simply paint the wars in terms of oil- and the oil in terms of the white man's greed. Lenin used to call them 'useful fools.' whatever they are called by the leaders of the international left now- rest assured that the 'useful fools' are still at it.  In truth is there no beauty? I am not in love; but i am open to persuasion. |
