Real Americans vs. Our Effete Elites "America was founded to be free and democratic -- unlike England with its monarchy and rigid class system. While classes will always be with us, only in America is class mobility possible and likely. Over our two-hundred and forty-two years, millions of people have become successful because they were not bound to the economic plight to which they might have been born. Americans do not care about the state of one's birth. They revere hard work, invention, imagination, and success. Success, to most Americans does not necessarily connote great wealth. In this country it means having a work ethic, work that one is good at, satisfaction in that work, providing for one's family and the contentment, a form of wealth to be sure, that derives from all of the above." More below. From this, we can divine the reason the academics hate those who find success through hard work and the markets. The academic believes he is superior due to his high intelligence, it is irrelevant whether his high intelligence is used productively or not. The academic looks down on the productive but unacademically credentialled person, no matter how productive or valuable he is to society. The academic cannot understand why the people do not mirror his unfettered respect and belief in intellect. He is taken aback by the fact that he is not rewarded for his intellect and that others expect he be required to be productive as well.
The average American finds the foppish academics who do little and are seldom productive like a mole, interesting in a way but useless and perhaps it should be removed? Middle America watches as academic study after academic study comes out researching one nonsensical subject after another and the authors all seem to expect to be lauded now that they know exactly how a monkey holds the football once he decides to fu## it. Americans are also nonplussed by the fact that only a tiny fraction of the academic research is valid, or useful and laugh at the understanding that the vast majority of academic research in the humanities and social sciences outside of economics will never even be read, not once! Another group that "can't get no respect" from middle America are the second generation wealthy who go into politics, people like Nancy Pelosi, and many other politicians. Like the academics, the wealthy second generation politicians do little and have no claim to productive engagement in the economy but want to tell the rest of us how to live our lives. It is from these people that we get laws like Obamacare which force the poor to buy medical insurance larded up with products only the dilettante wealthy could think are valuable or reasonable. "The American left today is fascist. They intend to dictate to every citizen what they can say, do or think. And they are indoctrinating our young people, our elementary through university students, with their radical intolerance. College students no longer learn about the horrors of communism and fascism, both products of the far left. No, they are being trained to be mind-numbed, doctrinaire leftists. They learn to renounce their country, our Constitution, to abhor themselves if white, to see themselves as a victim and so superior if black, Hispanic, etc. To be a minority in America is to be privileged in one sense. Unless one is Asian! Asians are not victims because they value education and succeed in record numbers. They are discriminated against for being successful." Ugly that! We fought the fascist, socialist, Stalinist, Maoist, and other to the end of these malignant, murderous (100,000,000 - 150,000,000 dead) political ideologies. Only in the American Academe could they be resurrected. The same can be said for racism. "The American left today is racist. They have always assumed the inferiority of minorities which is why they court them as dupes and dupes too many have been for decades. Not until Trump was elected has the black unemployment dropped to its lowest level ever recorded. If only professors of history would teach Malcolm X! He realized, after traveling in the Middle East, that "tribes" hang together. Not by color, but by family, friends, and neighbors. This revelation, once he returned to America, got him killed. The Nation of Islam did not want anyone here to accept the truth of Malcolm X's epiphany: racism is contrivance, a sham invented by the left to disempower African Americans. Convince them they are inferior, that that they need to be taken care of by the government and the democrats will remain in power forever! Being the racists they are, projection came easy. It has always been the left that assumes African-Americans need a leg up. It is conservatives who have always embraced MLK's dictate about the content of character. The left is all about skin color; to the right skin color is irrelevant." This can only exist in the fervid anti-humanist minds of the leftist progressives. The Trump election was the first awakening of middle America since the Reagan Revolution. It would appear the Trump Revolution will be greater and result in more serious change. I, for one, am ready.
