RE: Death by Political Correctness | Owen Benjamin and Stefan Molyneux
Stefan never says which demographic was (and still is) dominant when the massive, expansionary, education-monopolizing, world-bestriding, permanent welfare-warfare, centralized, surveillance state/empire that is the USA was CREATED (and CONTINUED) ...so I will!
The dominant voting demographic when the major enabling legislation of the early-mid 20th century (Federal Reserve Act, Income Tax Amendment, Direct Election of Senators Amendment, New Deal-era Legislation/EOs, Great Society-era Legislation) for the Total State was enacted was WHITE, CHRISTIAN, SOCIALLY-CONSERVATIVE MEN.
Ironically, this same demographic was also in force when the 1965 Immigration Act was passed, LOL. Also for every act which has lowered voting-standards--now any idiot can vote if they've achieved surviving until 18. Also for the mandated universal legalization of abortion. Also for the numerous undeclared wars since WWII & the election of the absolutely awful Big Govt. 'Conservative' Richard Nixon (who created the EPA, lol)...so much for whites & their love of "muh limited govt!"
The cancerous growth of the Total State has continued, unabated, despite the USA being in a 'Conservative Revolution' since Big Govt. 'Conservative' Reagan's (Reagan, ironically, was the original Mr. Amnesty & also went along w/EMTALA--'free' emergency room care for EVERYONE!) landslide wins of 1980 & 1984, the GOP takeover of congress in the 1990's, the total GOP takeover of govt. under GW Bush, the Tea Party 'insurgency' under Obama, and, now, yet another GOP total takeover of govt. under Trump.
Stef can blame "dumb brown people", he can make the ludicrous claim that white people (in particular men) "want smaller govt." (which they proved by overwhelmingly supporting Ron Paul in the 2008 & 2012 GOP Primaries--NOT!), he can make the even more retarded claim that voting-in Republican majorities effects smaller govt., but the awful truth is that there is ZERO evidence that his desired white demographic majority (whites are STILL the majority NOW, btw) has or will produce voting outcomes which lead to smaller govt.
Your precious 'high-IQ' whites do NOT want smaller govt. They have ALWAYS been, in fact, the dominant demographic during EACH & EVERY expansion of govt. power--this is true TODAY as well. Your 'high-IQ' whites WANT 'free' govt. schools, 'free' social-security & medicare (which they idiotically think they "paid into"), an insanely-huge/wasteful military to maintain the USA's global empire, and are not seriously concerned about the nat'l debt (which is INCREASING under Trump & the GOP majority).
Stef, you're full of shit...oh, and Zionist-puppet Trump should change his slogan to "Make ISRAEL Great Again" (MIGA)!!!
And your evidence?
"Evidence"...?
Are you retarded?
You've made a heap of assertions in direct opposition to the claims about white males advocating small government.
Where is your evidence?
Y'know - the information you use to verify your beliefs are in accordance with reality. Y'know, the thing that separates your bold assertions from fiction. Y'know, the data that proves you're not trying to spread lies and deceit. Evidence.
The dominant voting demographic when the major enabling legislation of the early-mid 20th century (Federal Reserve Act, Income Tax Amendment, Direct Election of Senators Amendment, New Deal-era Legislation/EOs, Great Society-era Legislation) for the Total State was enacted was WHITE, CHRISTIAN, SOCIALLY-CONSERVATIVE MEN.
This is a fact.
Another fact:
White men overwhelmingly chose John McCain & Mitt Romney over Ron Paul in the 2008 & 2012 GOP Primaries.
Its one thing to SAY you want smaller govt...its a different thing to actually WANT it.
I have nothing against white people, but Stef is really full of shit to suggest that whites have, anytime w/i the last 100+ years, seriously voted for smaller govt. Trump is no small-govt. guy either, he's just another in a LONG line of FDR-clones to occupy the White House.
When, not "if", but WHEN ZioShill Trump pulls a Reagan & grants amnesty, I'm gonna have a field day here on Stef's blog...and libertarian turncoat Molyneux won't be able to ban me from this platform like he has on others...
But what is your evidence... You've only made assertions. Stef has data to back up his claims. His claims have evidence to go along with his assertions.
Where is yourevidence?
Voting patterns is not enough.
I've listed my evidence...if you're too thick to see it, that's your problem.
Each & every bit of govt.-expanding legislation in the USA was done under white demographic majorities--FACT.
There is ZERO evidence that electing Republicans effects smaller govt. & fiscal responsibility (quite the opposite).
That's some shit evidence mate.
Your "evidence" seems to be: people voted and government got bigger. whites were a big demographic during these expansions and therefore whites want big government.
This is an interesting counter-point to be sure, but pretending what you've presented constitutes evidence to counter the thesis being presented kinda makes you the thick one.
But I appreciate the food for thought.
The point is that white majorities have NO connection to smaller govt., contrary to what the "new & improved" Stefan (I was following him back in 2008 when he said supporting Ron Paul was a waste-of-time & betrayal of libertarian principles, LOL) claims. Again, I don't know what more "evidence" you want than the mini-history lesson I provided in my original post.
White 'conservative' men (who allegedly want smaller govt. & less immigration) are the GOP's core constituency. These are the people who chose John "Open Borders" McCain & Mitt "Grandfather of ACA" Romney over RON FUCKING PAUL (whom I went door-to-door, talking to GOP households, for). So, I don't want to hear any bullshit about whites actually wanting small govt.
If white folks want smaller govt., it sure doesn't translate into reality via the nomination process, voting, civil-disobedience, or jury nullification...
