Ive said this for a long time. Our situation wasn’t engineered by anyone, it happened because people who should have known better didn’t intervene or were thwarted by others who honestly thought they were wrong. On the other hand, there are people who didn’t design our current predicament, but do enjoy our discomfort. THESE people should be our immediate focus.
Your cat lady is the perfect metaphor for the dysgenic breeding program going on in Subsaharan Africa. It started out with well intended white Christian missionaries just trying to help a few starving Africans. Now we’re facing a world with two billion of them.
I would argue that there was plenty of opposition to some of the most destructive acts of the last century. I would also argue that the intent of said acts was nothing but malevolence.
Forced bussing? Plenty of opposition. Even blacks didn’t want it. Intent was pure evil.
The end of white rule in South Africa? Everyone knew what would happen. There was precedent. People tried to intervene.
The Great Society? LBJ: “I just locked up the nigger vote.” Intentional wickedness?
The civil rights act?
The 1965 immigration act?
People tried to intervene. I think it was malevolently engineered.
"The purpose of a system is what it does" is, I have to confess, one of my favourite axioms. I think especially of the British immigration authorities. I will have to read this essay a few more times.
