1/ The contrast between Bushnell's self-immolation and the most famous modern self-immolation (that of Thích Quảng Đức in South Vietnam in 1963) tells you so much about the state and status of young white left-wing men in America today.
2/ When the Buddhist monk Đức famously self-immolated he did so to to protest the violation of the rights of *his* people, the Buddhist majority of South Vietnam, from unjust discrimination and persecution by their government.
3/ By contrast, despite the severe anti-white discrimination in the U.S. Military (discussed in the "military" chapter of my forthcoming book--which a leading analyst called "probably one of the best compilations of the American military’s racist present") Bushnell is not willing to fight for himself or demand that he be treated justly by his own government.
4/ Instead he transfers all of his moral outrage to a conflict thousands of miles away.
He deludes himself in his cowardly refusal to stand up for his own rights, a stand for which he would actually face social disapproval, recasting it as a courageous concern for others.
5/ Bushnell's mentality is an epidemic among the GOP establishment, which is too cowardly to make the politically tough stands required to secure OUR border, but has plenty of money to show their "bravery" by sending billions to foreign nations to secure theirs.
6/ We need to get rid of the GOP's Bushnells, who make moralistic theatrical gestures in support of other nations and domestic political opponents for media applause, and instead support GOP politicians who will unapologetically fight for their own voters.

1/ @Steve_Sailer has a post up on his Sub***ck with this powerful image from a 1973 Time cover story on Minnesota in 1973, and an almost identical gesture from the Minneapolis riots almost a half century later.
It gets to the heart of why Tim Walz is so dangerous. . .
2/ The entire piece is here, and it's brief but sobering reading.
As of today my book is available instantly on Kindle, available for immediate delivery in hardcover, and it will be available (in the next few days) in audiobook format.
You can read some of the early plaudits in the thread below.
2/ Lemkin developed the concept of genocide during World War II and, after the war, working closely with the prosecutors during the Nuremberg trials, he further refined it.
His proposals were the centerpiece of what became the United Nations Convention on Genocide.
3/ But the UN final document omitted Lemkin's concept of Cultural Genocide, after France and Britain vetoed it, concerned it might be used against them to describe some of their policies.
