Is it acceptable that in modern Britain Jews are forced to live in fear because the ruling elite–and don’t tell me Britain has not simply transitioned its aristocracy into a new ruling class, with socialism always and inevitably being characterized by a caste system far more abusive than anything a free market could generate–refuse to do the honorable thing and protect them?
I mention from time to time a scene a movie most seem to have forgotten, which has left a lifelong impression on me. It is a scene near the end of the film “Judgement at Nuremburg”, on the trials of Nazis following the war, and Spencer Tracy, as what I recall as an American judge, is speaking with Burt Lancaster, who was a Nazi judge, who was accused and convicted of crimes against humanity. Lancaster is asking Tracy “how could I have known it would lead to this, to mass murder, mass torture, so much death? [I am paraphrasing, as this dialogue appends another dialogue, in which a death camp guard calculates how many dead there might have been]. Tracy answers: “You knew, the very first time you sentenced an innocent man to prison.”
Edit: I looked it up:
Ernst Janning: Judge Haywood… the reason I asked you to come: Those people, those millions of people… I never knew it would come to that. You *must* believe it, *You must* believe it!
British journalists KNOW what they are doing. They just don’t want to admit it. They don’t want to make hard choices. They want the world to be this very nicey, nicey sort of place where all violence is simply misunderstanding, and that if they pretend blatant racism and bigotry are not being preached every day in substantially every mosque in the country, that somehow everything will just work out.
From where I am sitting, what is going to happen is British civilization is going to fail. The rule of law, equality before the law, representative democracy, human rights, freedom of conscience and religion: all of it will be washed away because they are too weak to defend what is good about their country, and are too weak to admit that Islam is inherently opposed to universal human rights, to women’s rights, to democracy, to religious pluralism, to free speech, to nearly everything decent which Western civilization has created. It wants to return to an age characterized by oppression, cruelty, violence, death, and misery.
Why countenance this, outside of cowardice? I see no reason.
This is why I created the category of Sybaritic Leftism. Not all leftists are bad people. Some are kind, decent, skilled, capable, humane, empathetic, and all the good things. Denmark works. Sweden works. But they are failing. They are failing because they are unwilling and unable to defend what they have built, unwilling to stand up to those who oppose their order, oppose their way of life.
As I mentioned a few months ago, at current rates something like 1 in 4 Swedish women will be raped, in almost all cases by Muslims. Why tolerate this? Why be so inhumane as to subject your women to that? Every immigrant there was born somewhere else. They can and should be returned if they fail to assimilate. This is not rocket science.
It is only once you dedicate yourself to the belief that life is supposed to be easy, that it can be made easy, that hard choices can be avoided, that violence is never necessary, that moral choices become hard.
