Diversity is Not Our Strength

Original Article

It’s fifty years now since I was at university and a great deal of my time there -- especially the weekends -- is long forgotten. I do remember going with the intention of studying math and economics. At that time, and maybe still, there was a requirement, in the first year, to take other subjects. Whether this was to prevent specializing too soon or to provide a more rounded education or both I don’t know but, when my second year began one of those other subjects became all of my classes, either Modern History or Economic History.

Diversity of ideas and thought has always been our strength. Diversity of culture and race should be irrelevant. People in the US are free to practice the culture of their heritage, but assimilation to the language and practices of the United States is the best path to success and prosperity.

If we are e pluribus unum, why do some people tout diversity ? It appears to me that most all of the diversity mantra involves sexual perverts.

Diversity is the calling card to sell sexual depravity and a race of the laziest people with murder and robbery built into their DNA. Dumb whites promoting it in our nation is part of the danger of diversity. MAGA

Blacks vote overwhelmingly for democrats. There is a big problem in the black community with broken families. Lots of kids in these broken families become criminals. You would think the democrats would help solve that problem with this big constituency. I don't see that happening, or any talk of making that happen. All they do is give them welfare to subjugate them.

If diversity were our greatest strength, our nation would be named the Diverse States of America. That the name points in the opposite direction indicates where our true strength lies.

The true source of America 's emergence as the pre-eminent power in the world has always been the fact it is a melting pot, not a diverse mosaic. Those who don't accept American values and culture are welcome not to come here. But people by the millions are voting with their feet!

Back in the day, legal immigrants came here to assimilate. They probably still do for the most part, but illegals? No way. "Death by Diversity" will be etched on America's tombstone. We are irreversibly past the point of diminishing returns.

U.S. crude oil production fell by 8% in 2020, the largest annual decrease on record, the U.S. Energy Information Agency reports. This plunge occurred one year after the U.S. reached a record annual average high of 12.2 million barrels a day in production in 2019. In January 2020, U.S. crude oil production reached a peak of 12.8 million b/d. But with federal and state lockdowns halting travel over coronavirus fears, demand for oil dropped and production became too expensive to maintain.

FiveThirtyEight, a left-leaning site put out a request for information. On Christmas day, it asked women to send in their abortion stories (and yes, it spoke of women, not birthing people) and provided a form by which they could do so. We don’t know what responses they got from the form, but the responses on Twitter are amazing. An overwhelming number came from women who did not have an abortion or regretted having one, or from children who are grateful they weren’t aborted. I’ll share some with you. To begin, here’s a little more about the FiveThirtyEight request for information about abortion.

A Texas doctor said his practice has seen a nearly 15% increase in vasectomies as men try to push back against the state’s abortion law, The Washington Post (WaPo) reported Sunday. Koushik Shaw, a doctor who practices at the Austin Urology Institute, told WaPo his practice saw a roughly 15% increase in scheduled vasectomies following the state’s Sept. 1 abortion ban. Shaw told the outlet patients are coming in, saying “‘Hey, I’m actually here because some of these changes that [Gov.

Joe Biden, first as a candidate and then in the White House, from the outset saw the COVID-19 pandemic mainly as a means of leveraging political support, from the manner in which the lockdowns allowed him to run a virtual campaign from his basement to equating Donald Trump with the COVID-19 virus. Like many on the Left, Biden was overt in such cynicism. So were Hillary Clinton, Gavin Newsom, and Jane Fonda—who claimed that COVID was a “never-let-a-crisis-go-to-waste” moment. Panic and lockdowns could help achieve single-payer health care, or a recalibrated capitalism, or the end of Donald Trump himself.

The families of the 17 missionaries who were kidnapped in Haiti on Oct. 16 have been safely reunited with their loved ones after the 12 remaining hostages managed to escape and make it to freedom.

Dominion voting machines in Fulton County, Pennsylvania, will be sent to the state Senate for inspection next month following a ruling by the commonwealth court, according to a press release Thursday by The Amistad Project. “The court recognized that it was improper to demand that the county – which owns the machines, and has the responsibility of running the election along with the legislature – can’t determine whether the machines worked properly,” Amistad Project Director Phill Kline said. “As the judge noted, there’s no justification for preventing the county from looking at their own machines.”

White people infected with COVID in New York State—the hardest hit state in the country—are in jeopardy of being turned away from potential lifesaving treatments in favor of other more at-risk races because of a national shortage of two promising types of medical treatments.

With no trial date in sight, he and his fellow inmates languish in a jail they say is inhumane. The J6 prisoners’ complaints about filthy conditions and inhumane treatment resulted in a surprise inspection that found everything they were saying was true. As a result, over 400 prisoners were moved to different facilities—none of them J6 prisoners. Lang has been in contact with PJ Media and several other media sources
