For the national unity crowd, here is a good article about how the Left play dirty, and in their totalitarian equalism, seek to level anyone who gets in their way. This time the attack is taken to target Trump’s son, Barron:

“Actor Tom Arnold jumped to Twitter to claim that he intends to show up at 12-year-old Barron Trump’s New York school and harass the child to protest President Donald Trump’s immigration policies. In his June 19 tweet, Arnold claimed that he wanted to go to the school because he thought he might see First Lady Melania Trump there with Barron. “On a plane to NY. Next is protesting Baron’s private school as well as James & Lachlan Murdoch’s kids. This is what I can do to end the abuse of these children. We’re going to make you uncomfortable,” Arnold Tweeted.”
Just imagine if this was said about the Obama children. In fact, when there was the slightest threat, the Secret Service was all over those making the threat, but Trump is so utterly weak before such wildebeests, that he seemingly does not act at all. Consequently, they grow bolder in their threats of violence, day by day. Even Trump’s staff are now under attack by soft “terrorists,” whose aim is to bring down a democratically elected government:

Let a thousand law suits be launched.
The point of this example is to show that any hope of uniting countries in the West into the stable civil societies which existed in the past, has long gone. The division is far beyond a civil war stage, and it is only because of the weakness of the Right, produced by a culture of comfort, that there has not been such a civil war decades ago. The Americans of 1865 would have already have gone to battle. Not that I want this, or in any way think that this is a good thing, but the lesson of history is that no society can hold together with such divisions. It is now no longer just a race division, but a deep philosophical divide about what societies should be. If the issue was merely racial, it may have been possible to get some sort of duct tape solution. But, for a fundamental metaphysical crisis, there is no solution. The Left just want to either kill, or socially destroy all “deplorables,” so how do you live peacefully with that?

We find the same situation to various degrees in all Western countries that have followed the American political model of decadent diversity, and the time of breakdown and final collapse will be directly proportional to the level of plurality and polarisation:

“Ethnic diversity is increasing in most advanced countries, driven mostly by sharp increases in immigration. In the long run immigration and diversity are likely to have important cultural, economic, fiscal, and developmental benefits. In the short run, however, immigration and ethnic diversity tend to reduce social solidarity and social capital. New evidence from the US suggests that in ethnically diverse neighbourhoods residents of all races tend to ‘hunker down’. Trust (even of one’s own race) is lower, altruism and community cooperation rarer, friends fewer. In the long run, however, successful immigrant societies have overcome such fragmentation by creating new, cross‐cutting forms of social solidarity and more encompassing identities.”
Professor Robert D. Putnam had some difficulty accepting his own research findings, but the conclusion that diversity will turn out fine in the end, is unfounded and contradicted by the primary conclusions. It is like saying that diversity is a force moving bodies apart, but in the long run there will be some mysterious force (never detailed) that will bring them back together. That is not true of cosmology, and it is not true of human society either.
If you just don’t see it, here are just a few articles from today’s crop giving a more concrete illustration of the issues discussed here:
