The Suicide of the West By James Reed

Brett Stevens, one of the few Dissent Right thinkers to engage in a full-on philosophical critique of the notion of diversity itself being any sort of social good, gives the following overview case of his objections to diversity, mainly ethno-racial. There are a number of academic papers showing that ethno-racial diversity in societies leads to an erosion of social capital, with people hunkering down, as their culture is dismantled. It is seen clearly in numerous reports from the US and especially Europe, which we cover most days. Stevens points out the obvious, that homogenous societies, such as Japan and China, do not have these problems, and can maintain a sense of national strength. But, that has been destroyed in the West, in favour of multiculturalism, which is now working its way through society in terms of white replacement, and the open attack upon all aspects of the West’s traditional culture. And, that will only lead to social chaos, which we now have, followed by collapse, and societal death, which is the Left’s great death wish.

“Almost no one thought to question what people intended with big colorful buzzwords like “diversity” and “multiculturalism.” It was implied that these meant that other ethnic groups could come here and share in our prosperity.

No one thought beyond that point. Bringing multiple ethnic groups into a country means that it no longer has a culture, only a legal system that defends diversity and an economic system which becomes dependent on the steady flow of cheap labor to outpace the costs of unionized domestic labor.

Abolishing culture leaves only law and commerce intact, and not surprisingly, that creates an open-air shopping mall where people indulge in the ultimate bourgeois fiction, namely that if they vote and pay taxes all of the enduring problems of society are not their problems.

If you wonder why the steady accretion of useless laws, regulations, and other procedure has continued to the point where no one can do it all and therefore laws are being ignored, causing the rule of law itself to decline, look no further than diversity.

In addition to that, your country under diversity loses its center and no accord can be reached because no values, normally transmitted by culture, are shared in common:

But if we are losing that struggle, it isn’t because of the superiority of authoritarian, communist or autocratic systems. We know that liberal capitalism has done more for human prosperity, health and freedom than any other economic or political system.

If we are losing, it is because we are losing our soul, our sense of purpose as a society, our identity as a civilization. We in the West are in the grip of an ideology that disowns our genius, denounces our success, disdains merit, elevates victimhood, embraces societal self-loathing and enforces it all in a web of exclusionary and authoritarian rules, large and small.

Diversity fragments societies. They then lose whatever soul they have. At that point, the former majority gives up and believes it has been replaced, which causes it to disconnect from any beliefs that it has, per Robert Putnam‘s research.

When your society loses hope, it assumes the worst because that allows people to give up. Not just conservatives but Americans of all stripes want to believe that all is lost so that they can stop caring about the constant, grinding degradation of their civilization.

Not surprisingly, they see diversity as larger than it really is:

When people’s average perceptions of group sizes are compared to actual population estimates, an intriguing pattern emerges: Americans tend to vastly overestimate the size of minority groups. This holds for sexual minorities, including the proportion of gays and lesbians (estimate: 30%, true: 3%), bisexuals (estimate: 29%, true: 4%), and people who are transgender (estimate: 21%, true: 0.6%).

It also applies to religious minorities, such as Muslim Americans (estimate: 27%, true: 1%) and Jewish Americans (estimate: 30%, true: 2%). And we find the same sorts of overestimates for racial and ethnic minorities, such as Native Americans (estimate: 27%, true: 1%), Asian Americans (estimate: 29%, true: 6%), and Black Americans (estimate: 41%, true: 12%).

People tend to underestimate rather than overestimate their size relative to their actual share of the adult population. For instance, we find that people underestimate the proportion of American adults who are Christian (estimate: 58%, true: 70%) and the proportion who have at least a high school degree (estimate: 65%, true: 89%).

A media that, because it is dependent on government contracts and favors, incessantly promotes race-mixing and White abolition does not help the situation. The root of this however may be a press focus on diversity because it provides more “if it bleeds it leads” style headlines.

People see that there is no hope because their group has become a target and therefore it faces replacement because other groups will be favored in education, careers, and government aid. Even more, they realize that on some level these others hate them.

In international politics, every group can succeed because it has its own territory and is master of its fate. With diversity, these different groups are competing because they can either conquer or be conquered, and the result is that only one group comes out on top.

Thanks to egalitarian government, this becomes the most numerous group, which promptly increases its numbers and destroys the other groups with its new majority power. The former majority retreats into strategic hamlets in order to survive:

In 2000, when the ANC government mandated that every piece of land must be administered by a municipality, the residents of Orania were able to obtain a court judgment that allowed them to take responsibility for their own services. This was made possible by the fact that its people had been working hard to independently provide their own services since the town’s founding in 1991. In 2022, the de jure reality further adapted to Orania’s de facto reality, through a formal agreement of independence with the Thembelihle Local Municipality, under whose authority they were supposed to fall. The people of Orania did not wait for the regulatory reality to grant them permission. They simply created their own reality, which the state had no choice but to acknowledge.

Just like the people of Oriana, AfriForum and the Solidarity Movement aren’t asking for permission. Our future is too important to leave up to the whims of the state. With the deterioration of government capacity also comes growing opportunities for decentralization of power and creating facts on the ground. Our strategy instead involves the creation of a reality so resilient that the government has no choice but to recognize it as legitimate. With neighborhood watches, for example, we grow them to a point where we can simply inform the state of their existence and offer assistance and cooperation where possible. If AfriForum waited for a formal government green light to establish our neighborhood watches, we would still have a total of zero neighborhood watches, instead of 165+, our current numbers.

These however face the same problem that occurred in America in the 1860s, namely that with the new majority making the rules, the old majority finds itself a victim of rules that disadvantage it, culminating either in war or being impoverished to the point of nonexistence.

We know civil war is coming. There are no more retreats to Whitopias, only either gaining control of our political system before it destroys us, or letting it destroy us while we posture at having the moral high ground  ...

Not surprisingly, people are increasingly interested in the lead-up to this civil war. We know the current system has failed and cannot stand. We also know that it is deceiving us, and we want to get the facts into the public record as a pretext to more extreme action:

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 80% of Likely U.S. Voters believe it is important that the public be able to view all the videos of the Capitol riot, including 58% who think it’s Very Important. Only 17% don’t think it’s important for the public to be able to see all the riot videos.

Our people have gone into denial for years because they fear more ideological wars like the world wars. They want to just buy government off with taxes, live the good life …

However, thanks to the Hart-Celler Act promoted by TED KENNEDY , the diversity has the voting power. Right now, they are a swing vote that either makes or breaks any candidate. Eventually they will simply dominate the voting.

We already see what happens in majority-minority areas like Detroit, Chicago, Houston, and San Francisco. The diversity votes for diversity candidates who are encouraged to lie, cheat, and steal as a way of revenging on the dying majority.

Most of the workers in government are from the diversity groups, which leads them to help with vote fraud and discrimination against the former majority. They will face no consequences; when arrested, they are let walk so that they can continue their war against the former majority.

If election 2020 showed us anything, it was that everywhere diversity had power, the vote was stolen for the Left. They will do this until they no longer need to do it, and their goal in that election was to open the borders and let in more new voters.

There can be no retreat; either we overthrow the Revolution that brought us equality and with it, dominance by the lowest IQ citizens, who naturally tend toward diversity in order to smash their wealthier employers, or we perish.”
