Hitler’s Revenge
Sometimes the public school system can be quite the source of comic relief, as evidenced by this recent historically-challenged protester of China’s hosting the 2008 Summer Olympics:
On a related note, here’s the Chinese Olympic Stadium now under construction:
Did they really mean to make their stadium look like the ejected remains of some bad Lo Mein takeout? And here is the 1936 Berlin stadium:
Of course, the Chinese might have preferred a more monumental stadium, but the fundamental reactionary nature of political correctness forbids it. The Nazis had good taste in music, art and architecture, largely because it was a malignant hypernationalism that celebrated the natural German talents in those areas. So in reaction we must all suffer through ugly architecture, dissonant “modern” music and degenerate art. Thank goodness the Germans aren’t renown for their cuisine, else our senses be deprived of at least one remaining pleasure.
I once heard a conservative describe liberalism as a religion like Christianity, except that instead of Jesus they substitute Hitler, or rather what they view as anything that is anti-Hitler.
Even the immigration issue can be seen in this light. So while Germany went down in flames, Hitler has his revenge at last. The following is from the introduction to Peter Brimelow’s excellent book Alien Nation:
There is a sense in which current immigration policy is Adolf Hitler’s posthumous revenge on America. The U.S. political elite emerged from the war passionately concerned to cleanse itself from all taints of racism or xenophobia. Eventually, it enacted the epochal Immigration Act (technically, the Immigration and Nationality Act Amendments) of 1965.
And this, quite accidentally, triggered a renewed mass immigration, so huge and so systematically different from anything that had gone before as to transform—and ultimately, perhaps, even to destroy—the one unquestioned victor of World War II: the American nation, as it had evolved by the middle of the 20th century.
Today, U.S. government policy is literally dissolving the people and electing a new one. You can be for this or you can be against it. But the fact is undeniable.
