The resentment and entitlement mentality of patriotic citizens concerned about immigrants and Jews


The message is always the same: "everyone who isn't a true American has it so easy! They get everything for free and I get nothing! I work hard, and where's my welfare check!" 


Already from the start a competitive comparison of who deserves what. Let the oppression Olympics begin. "I don't care if someone has fled war or famine, it's not my problem! I'd prefer if I didn't have to hear about it, and if MY government didn't make it their concern!"


At the same time: "I am not a lazy scounger! I would never take help from the government! I work 80 hours a week for $22 an hour! I toil to the bone for everything I have! But the government takes taxes and gives it to people -- who in my entitled opinion -- have no right to be here or anywhere really! Defense spending? That's necessary and good. How else could I work without missiles? Being an American is an amazing blessing, but also I do nothing but complain about how difficult it is living paycheck to paycheck. Everyone should be working! But most are idiots who don't deserve the privilege of having a job!"


Again: "why should everyone get work? Why are business owners obligated to hire unqualified people?! There are going to be winners and losers! This is a meritocracy where jobs are given according to how skilled and intelligent people are!" 


"They get all the rights and privileges, and I get all the obligations! They should have more restrictions and I should have more privileges!" 


At the same time: "these privileges must be destroyed or reduced to an absolute minimum! I understand giving a small amount to someone who has worked 60 years and is now crippled as a result, so they can enjoy the rest of their retirement watching Fox News hooked up to an oxygen tank, but why are we allowing these Jews and n*gg*rs from Somalia to have 10 kids on my dime?!" 


At the same time: "I'm very concerned about population statistics! 'Heritage Americans' are having less and less children mainly because of feminism ruining women's natural biological instinct to be incubators for the state! But, also, because the cost of living is high. What's important is the state has lots of workers and soldiers!" 


So, a very dissatisfied and entitled attitude about what they imagine an ideal government is: mainly, one that sorts its human materials correctly. 


Already an insanely murderous attitude. 


And this is supposed to pay off?

Ghost Hunting - On the history of ideas about anti-communism

A rough and dirty translation from an article "Gespensterjagd -- Zur Ideengeschichte des Antikommunismus" from Gruppen Gegen Kapital Und Nation (Groups Against Capital and Nation). Original can be found here: https://gegen-kapital-und-nation.org/gespensterjagd-zur-ideengeschichte-des-antikommunismus/ “A specter is haunting Europe - the specter of communism."“ All the powers of old Europe have united in a holy hunt against this specter,” wrote Marx and Engels in the Communist Manifesto — and that, contrary to other claims in that work, is a pretty true statement. Hatred and fear of radical change in civil society is as old as its revolutionary implementation itself. At the latest with the French Revolution, which did not operate in a religious disguise like the Dutch and English revolutions, and which was much more radical in its theoretical justification than the American one, the fear of the “Red Terror” arose (before “La Grande, by the way. “Terreur” really started in ...

The concept of cultural appropriation – a critique of racism on its own foundations

Original here: https://gegen-kapital-und-nation.org/das-konzept-der-kulturellen-aneignung-eine-kritik-des-rassismus-auf-seinen-eigenen-grundlagen/ In recent years, a new form of racism,  cultural appropriation,  has been criticized in some anti-racist circles . They always discover this where members of a group adopt cultural productions (e.g. certain cultural customs, hairstyles, items of clothing,...) that, according to advocates of the concept of cultural appropriation, come from other groups, namely those who have less power over the acquiring group due to racial discrimination. When criticizing cultural appropriation, respect for these cultures is demanded. This respect should then contribute to combating racial discrimination. There was criticism that a non-indigenous artist in Canada integrated elements of indigenous art into her artwork.  1  Even when “white”  2  people wear dreadlocks or throw colored powder at each other (a practice inspired by th...

A Reader writes to Freerk Huisken: "I am not a nationalist because I fear foreigners taking my job!"

  A reader writes: ".... in a recent lecture in.... you framed the fears of fellow citizens for their jobs amid increasing demand from foreigners for work as nationalist. Your 'arguments' were not at all convincing to me. I personally have nothing against foreigners; I just fear for my job. Therefore, I am not a nationalist. I would never vote for the AfD or any other right-wing extremist party. That's why I think it's good when you and others speak out against the AfD. However, I am writing to you so that you reconsider your 'arguments' and refrain from calling harmless fellow citizens nationalists in the future..." Before anything, I'd like to set a few things straight: First, I didn't – directly – oppose the AfD in the aforementioned lecture. More on that in a moment. And second, I didn't call anyone a nationalist. Rather, I tried to criticize the slogan that foreigners are taking "our" jobs, and to point out its flaws and its ...
