Modular Culture

Modular Culture

I read a post on monoculturalism once upon a time. Naturally I forgot to mark it and can’t remember where I found it, so I’m cheating someone out of a link. I found it an intriguing term since I had never heard it before. The link referred to an increasing rejection of multiculturalism, something that all good Americans hate. It reminded me of a concept of mine that I’ve intended to post about for a long time, modular culture.I not sure we’ve ever had a true monoculture, and if we ever did we definitely don’t have one now, and it’s unlikely to ever return. I have for years believed that American Culture is not one monolithic whole, that in fact it is compartmentalized into a hierarchy of “modules”. I DO believe that there is a core culture that every American needs to understand and be able to function in. Past that, however, there are so many different flavors of American life that one could never know them all.

If I had been motivated enough I might have made this my life’s work and published brilliant research papers on the topic, but I’ve had bigger fish to fry. The gist of my theory is that past the core culture there can be any number of sub-modules attached to it, and others attached to those. As long as those subordinate modules conform to the values outlined in the higher order modules we’ll all be OK. For instance, your Satanic Cult module won’t fly if you do human sacrifices. That would be a gross violation of American core culture. An extreme example, no doubt, but it does make my point.

If a certain module isn’t for you, another will be. The “vampire chic” and team sports modules absolutely baffle me. My renaissance faire and old muscle car modules might baffle you. The important thing is that these harm no one and can co-exist. Certain groups that have been getting a lot of attention lately believe that shouldn’t be allowed to drink, eat bacon, or let women wear bikinis (by itself proof of their insanity). However, they are allowed to kill all the people they want. Another gross violation of American core culture. If you can’t wrap your head around the idea of not killing people who disagree with you then you shouldn’t be allowed to come here. If you’re already here, get the hell out. Have a nice day.

I heard somebody on the radio, I think it was Gary McNamara,say something brilliant and succinct, two things that don’t always go together. Paraphrasing: Don’t feel pride because of what you are. Feel pride because of what you accomplish.Think about it, if the source of your pride is race or ethnicity then your crowning achievement is the mere fact of your birth. If that is so, then after your umbilical cord was snipped your life has been all down hill.





Hispano-Fascism

The Hispano-Fascist Flag

Things have been slow here in the blogosphere, so I took the time to do some reading up on all things immigration. I spent hours on it in fact. I checked out the American Patrol Report and spent some time cruising MEChA’s web site. My reading took me from one extreme to the other, from laughter at the lunacy of their positions to gut-wrenching concern that so many people believe the tripe they’re spewing.

My calling them Hispano-Fascists isn’t just a ploy to annoy them or make them angry. They generate plenty of those emotions on their own. No, I call them that because the hatred and bile that spews out of their mouths reminds me ever so much of the words of other fascists from the past. I’m certain of one thing if nothing else. If it walks like a fascist, talks like a fascist, thinks like a fascist, and acts like a fascist, then it’s a damn fascist!

I’ve always subscribed to the theory that as soon as someone in a debate compares his opponent to Hitler or the Nazis, he or she just lost the debate. Very rarely is the comparison legitimate. Usually, it’s just a rhetorical technique to inflame someone else’s passion. But in the case of the deluded Reconquistas and certifiable psycho MEChA sociopaths, the comparison is dead-on.

The blather about the bronze race and the people of the sun invading and occupying my little piece of the country in order to fill out their inevitable destiny. That sounds an awful lot like invading Poland to get a little “living room” for the “master race” on the way to creating the world-encompassing German order. I say if the swastika fits, they should wear it.

I think that the invaders are getting a little bit too cocky for their own good. Just because our government doesn’t see any need to protect us and keep us sovereign, it doesn’t mean that we’ll just stand by while it happens. I fear the pussies in our government will let this continue until the rank and file citizens have no choice but to act on their own. I don’t know about you folks, but there is no way in hell I’m going to live as a second-class citizen in my own country. Nor will I stand idly by while people who have no clue as to what makes the country work reduce it to third-world nation status.

Remember, Mexico isn’t poor because of lack of resources, lack of labor, or any intrinsic genetic flaws. They are poor because they run things like Mexicans. And no, I’m not saying they don’t have the right to live however they want. What I am saying is that the way you live carries certain consequences with it. If you choose a self-destructive path, then you have no one to blame but yourself. And if you choose not to see the connection between your condition and your actions, that’s your problem too. However, your choices in no way obligate me to let you come to my country and impose those choices on me.

If things suck down there, that’s not my problem. Even more so, It’s not our problem. I would suggest that you stop electing kleptocrats for a nice beginning.





The Liberal Lexicon: “A” Words and Phrases

The Fine Art of Liberal to English Translation

Contrary to popular belief, Liberals do speak a form of English. Their dialect, though strange, is quite similar to American English. In fact, the vocabulary, grammar, syntax, and even the accents are identical. So what accounts for all the heartache and confusion that plagues Libero-American relations? The answer is semantics, the linguistic field of word meanings. The concepts identified by the same words are often quite different between Liberal and American English. As a token of my desire to bridge this gap I  submit these translations. Starting with “A” of course.

 

The Definitions

  1. A—grade automatically given by humanities professors to goons who harass the token conservative student in the classroom.
  2. ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union, aka Three Lies in Four Words— Don’t worry. We’ll get offended for you. No! Really! It’s no trouble at all.
  3. Actor/Actress—unimportant person who makes a living pretending to be an important person.
  4. Art—various forms of creative self-expression that in its highest form involves graphic displays of and references to body functions.
  5. Asian: A sell-out ethnic minority guilty of making other ethnic minorities look bad by outperforming caucasians.
  6. Ass—the ironically appropriate symbol of the Democratic party ; also: in debates, describes an opponent who raised a point for which you had not rehearsed an answer.
