"[T]here are literally two Americas. One America is beautiful... overflowing with the milk of prosperity and the honey of opportunity."

"This America is the habitat of millions of people who have food and material necessities for their bodies; and culture and education for their minds; and freedom and human dignity for their spirits. In this America, millions of people experience every day the opportunity of having life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness in all of their dimensions. And in this America millions of young people grow up in the sunlight of opportunity. But tragically and unfortunately, there is another America. This other America has a daily ugliness about it that constantly transforms the ebulliency of hope into the fatigue of despair. In this America millions of work-starved men walk the streets daily in search for jobs that do not exist. In this America millions of people find themselves living in rat-infested, vermin-filled slums. In this America people are poor by the millions. They find themselves perishing on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity."

Said Martin Luther King Jr., in the late 1960s, in a speech title "The Other America."

John Edwards also had a "Two Americas" speech when he was a presidential candidate in 2004 and 2008.

I'm reading the Wikipedia article "Two Americas" this morning to escape from reading — in the NYT — "The Looming Contest Between Two Presidents and Two Americas/The general election matchup that seems likely between President Biden and former President Donald J. Trump is about fundamentally disparate visions of the nation."

I don't know how much of this sort of thing we can stand:
The looming showdown between President Biden and former President Donald J. Trump... is about two vastly disparate visions of America.... Mr. Biden leads an America that, as he sees it, embraces diversity, democratic institutions and traditional norms, that considers government at its best to be a force for good in society. Mr. Trump leads an America where, in his view, the system has been corrupted by dark conspiracies and the undeserving are favored over hard-working everyday people....

Americans do not just disagree with each other, they live in different realities....

We can't have 9 months of that!

He might beleive that last one, but he and the core lefty voters do not believe in diversity of anything other than outward characteristics (skin color, genitals) and certainly not diversity of thought or opinion, nor do they believe in traditional norms (they are anti free speech, anti-individual liberty, anti-religion, anti-cop, pro-mandates, pro-trans insanity, etc.) In fact there are very few traditional norms the left respects or embraces.

Democrats, I mean Decivilizers, are at the forefront of abusing Americans. Just look at Decivilizer-run cities:

- skyrocketing crime
- citizens being displaced for illegal aliens
- homeless drug encampments with their accompanying trash and filth
- failing schools.
- sexual predators groom kids for their pleasure and medical profits
- war on legal gun ownership and gun stores

The Washington State House has passed a bill designed to drive gun shops out of business. It imposes huge costs for video surveillance, bars on windows doors, fire safes and a requirement to put all firearms into a safe every night.

There's also bills to outlaw new nat-gas hookups that's making progress and give current prison inmates voting rights and the right to hold office. Under this bill, Gary Ridgway, the Green River killer, could vote and be a state representative.

That's what the Decivilier Party wants for us. Elite rule of the serfs.

Anyone have any info/thoughts about this movie: https://undivideusmovie.com? I used to read Tony Woodlief years ago and liked his writing, so this has me wondering if it's good or not.

While it's certainly satisfying at times to have some sort of group identity and think "everyone else is trying to destroy our side! we have to fight!", it's not a recipe for a successful society by any means. How do ordinary people back way from that? You know we do it every day in our own lives (at work, with our neighbors - all the parts of us that aren't on the internet) so how do we magnify that cooperation and minimize this desire to take sides and demonize the "other"? And how to we convince the other side(s) to do the same? It's like negotiating a ceasefire - everyone has to put down their guns together or it just makes things worse.

The problem with the Democratic Party was, I think, vocalized very well by Margaret Thatcher back in 1990 saying the Liberals want the Poorer to be poorer as long as the rich are less rich. That is not how you create wealth.
Democrats seem to want to relegate part of the electorate in perpetuity to the islands of despair so that Democrats can say they're going to help.
Now, I'm certain some Democrats do have the best of intentions, and are trying. By and large, though, I see Democrats shaming people for what they are. They'd rather the people living in the sunlight of opportunity had less sunshine and less opportunity.

It seems to me that the continent of prosperity, like every other continent, has mountains and valleys, and a lot of Democrats would rather have everyone live on the flat coral atoll of poverty than have some continent-dwellers live on mountaintops. It's an idealistic thing, which I understand, plus - here's the part I never understand - an unwillingness to look at history or other countries in the present to see what happens when "fairness," lack of "relief" in an economic landscape, becomes paramount.

When Americans hear things like this, they don't think of Joe Biden, unless they perceive it as under attack. Try as he might, to claim credit for such a thing, Joe Biden has not brought this prosperity to America, quite the contrary - and he has a nearly 50 year reputation for personal aggrandizement, lying and plagiarizing, and intellectual dullness, and a 5-year reputation for public senescence, which are not going to help close the deal.

People are more likely to believe that he brought this:

"...in this America millions of work-starved men walk the streets daily in search for jobs that do not exist. In this America millions of people find themselves living in rat-infested, vermin-filled slums." Baltimore, anyone? Add 'drug infested, crime-ridden and over-run by illegal aliens.' Pick any Blue city: That's what Joe is going to be connected to, because that's the kind of thing the Democrats have been standing for, for decades.

Recall that the march on Washington was a march for jobs, not reparations.

"Mr. Biden leads an America that, as he sees it, embraces diversity, democratic institutions and traditional norms, that considers government at its best to be a force for good in society."

What Mr. Biden's supporters promote is exclusion in the name of diversity.
"Democratic institutions" now means lawfare against political enemies, great or small.
"Traditional norms" are out the window.
Government is not a force for good, but it's good for force.

I know the American project relies on us trying to find common ground with fellow Americans with different views, but I feel increasingly unable to do so, and increasingly uncertain that it’s worthwhile. Imagine thinking Trump is acceptable, let alone admirable.

"Nikki “Birdbrain” Haley is very bad for the Republican Party and, indeed, our Country. Her False Statements, Derogatory Comments, and Humiliating Public Loss, is demeaning to True American Patriots. Her anger should be aimed at her Third Rate Political Consultants and, more importantly, Crooked Joe Biden and those that are destroying our Country - NOT THE PEOPLE WHO WILL SAVE IT. I knew Nikki well, she was average at best, is not the one to take on World Leaders, and she never did. That was up to me, and that is why they respected the United States. When I ran for Office and won, I noticed that the losing Candidate’s “Donors” would immediately come to me, and want to “help out.” This is standard in Politics, but no longer with me. Anybody that makes a “Contribution” to Birdbrain, from this moment forth, will be permanently barred from the MAGA camp. We don’t want them, and will not accept them, because we Put America First, and ALWAYS WILL!" ~ Donald J Trump

Cutting off the penises and breasts of young Americans is not a "traditional norm". Flooding the country with illegal immigrants is not a traditional norm. Censorship is not a traditional norm.

But, supporting and funding stupid wars like Ukraine is an American traditional norm. Corrupt Government officials is a proud American tradition.

What Recession? Growth Ended Up Accelerating in 2023
Economy expanded 3.1% from a year earlier due to strong consumer spending and hiring ~ WSJ

The US continues to completely defy gravity. Truly an absolute beast of an economy.

Either the US economy as a whole, despite apparent strength, is not delivering for a critical mass of the population, or it is but they are not being informed properly (or a bit of both). If it were seen to be delivering then the prospects of Trump returning would be much lower than they currently are. Trump affects people in a way that is unrelated to economic prosperity.

John Derbyshire used the analogy of salt in one's soup to describe the effects of immigration on a society. A judicious amount of salt makes the best soup, but too much is much worse than none at all, and far harder to fix.

I feel the same way about government. We lived out the principles of limited government set down by Jefferson and Madison and the rest for 200+ years, and the result was a period of prosperity and innovation that surpassed all previous great empires and will shine forever in the history of the world.

But sadly, it is all in decline, if not on the cusp of outright destruction. Our society has been been infected by an alien philosophy of statist collectivism that considers the permanent aggrandizement of government as the highest goal of humankind. These are unspeakably foolish and evil people who believe in massive, untrammeled government for its own sake, backed by a national security establishment and civil service that have arrogated the role of the Praetorian Guard to themselves. They are the enemies of all humanity, the heirs of Hitler and Stalin, and must be opposed every bit as vigorously as we did in the days of our fathers and grandfathers.

I would rather live under the law of the jungle, in complete and total anarchy, than under enemy scum like Joe Biden and Barack Obama and their minions and myrmidons. We can take care of ourselves far better than they can take care of us.

Blacks are encouraged to live in a world of resentment so as to prevent them from being employable.

The very last thing the Democratic Party wants is for black people to be prosperous, gainfully employed homeowners with intact families who get along with their neighbors and have no use for government besides keeping crime down and the roads in good shape. They would never win another election. All of the Left's policies are deliberately and cynically designed to keep minorities poor, angry, resentful, and hopeless, in service to their grasping lust for partisan political gain.

Gonna be a rough year as the "intellectuals" struggle to earn their sinecures by selling the inevitability of this government. The Left side of history.

And they aren't off to a good start with their "journalists" ending up on the "learn to code" line thus losing their soapbox.



For this essential acceptance, the majority must be persuaded by ideology that their government is good, wise and, at least, inevitable, and certainly better than other conceivable alternatives. Promoting this ideology among the people is the vital social task of the “intellectuals.” For the masses of men do not create their own ideas, or indeed think through these ideas independently; they follow passively the ideas adopted and disseminated by the body of intellectuals. The intellectuals are, therefore, the “opinion-molders” in society. And since it is precisely a molding of opinion that the State most desperately needs, the basis for age-old alliance between the State and the intellectuals becomes clear.

It is evident that the State needs the intellectuals; it is not so evident why intellectuals need the State. Put simply, we may state that the intellectual’s livelihood in the free market is never too secure; for the intellectual must depend on the values and choices of the masses of his fellow men, and it is precisely characteristic of the masses that they are generally uninterested in intellectual matters. The State, on the other hand, is willing to offer the intellectuals a secure and permanent berth in the State apparatus; and thus a secure income and the panoply of prestige. For the intellectuals will be handsomely rewarded for the important function they perform for the State rulers, of which group they now become a part.

"The problem with the Democratic Party was, I think, vocalized very well by Margaret Thatcher back in 1990 saying the Liberals want the Poorer to be poorer as long as the rich are less rich."

Warren Meyer (Coyote Blog):

"In fact, here is a sure fire test for a progressive. If given a choice between two worlds:

- A capitalist society where the overall levels of wealth and technology continue to increase, though in a pattern that is dynamic, chaotic, generally unpredictable, and whose rewards are unevenly distributed,

or...

- A "progressive" society where everyone is poorer, but income is generally more evenly distributed. In this society, jobs and pay and industries change only very slowly, and people have good assurances that they will continue to have what they have today, with little downside but also with very little upside.

Progressives will choose #2. Even if it means everyone is poorer. Even if it cuts off any future improvements we might gain in technology or wealth or lifespan or whatever. They want to take what we have today, divide it up more equally, and then live to eternity with just that. Progressives want #2 today, and they wanted it just as much in 1900 (just think about if they had been successful -- as just one example, if you are over 44, you would have a 50/50 chance of being dead now)."
