A row has erupted in Virginia over a proposal to fly a huge Confederate flag
outside the state capital, Richmond. One hundred and fifty years after the Civil
War, the flag can still be seen flying from homes and cars in the South. Why?
"I think it will die out," says Ferris, who thinks flag-wavers feel like an
embattled minority. "The south is changing, with the growth of Hispanics and
Asian and a growing black population, and you can be sure that the Confederate flag has no place in their world." The South, he says, needs a new emblem to reflect its changing character.
So, the Confederate flag has "no place in their world." But how and why should then they have a place in White people's world? The inescapable logic of the passage is that the growth of the non-white population will deprive the White population of their identity, culture, and ultimately - survival. But that's okay. To object would be "racist" and "intolerant." But why isn't it "racist" and "intolerant" when non-whites takeover and remake formerly White societies in respective images, to reflect and express their particular beliefs and perspectives? We aren't told. All we know is when non-whites preserve and advance themselves, it's good, noble, and virtuous - a reason to celebrate. But when Whites do the same thing, it's evil, wicked, and vile - a sickening display of pathological hate.
- They hate us for our freedom
- War is peace
- Diversity is our strength (even though race doesn't exist and we're all the same)
