Was in Lausanne, Switzerland a month ago — a lot of beautiful parts of that city, but some ugly ones. Rode the metro, lots of young attractive people on it, but was an immigrant guy, passed out in his own piss, and the stench wafted into several cars.
All the “good” Eurolibs were just tolerating this, like it’s perfectly normal to have one person stinking up three cars at 6 pm on a summer evening.
There need to be standards for society, and the liberals have failed to live up to them. The cities are more dangerous, less clean and ill-functioning. They tolerate things that decent adults should not tolerate, and the extreme case of this is the murder of Iryna Zarutska (even if I think there’s something about that that doesn’t quite add up.)
On the other hand, this is NOT the same thing as saying, Muslims, Africans and others are inherently unable to live in Western societies — plainly many are, and reverting to lazy heuristics because you are scared is also misguided and cowardly.
I’ve been to dozens of cities the last few years, walked through some sketchy neighborhoods, and it’s not as bad as it’s made out to be online by terrified poasters.
It should be much better, obviously, there should never be a time you’re walking through a modern, Western civiliation and feel ill at ease, but it’s not that scary. Incidentally San Francisco in what wasn’t a sketch neighborhood was the worst, insane people screaming, ranting and drugged out of their minds.
Liberals tolerate way too much, basically too cowardly with too much confused empathy for the wrong people, and reactionaries too cowardly and stupid to address the actual problem which is the lowering of standards and pity-based liberal racism that ignores reality.
This is not to say that nefarious billionaires don’t prey on misplaced liberal empathy and enact these policies on purpose (they probably are) and it’s not to say that there are not nefarious factions pushing a reversion to old school racism to divide the populace and keep them focused on anything but the kleptocracy at the top (probably the case too.)
It’s just that there are solutions to these problems that require courage to say something and higher standards while at the same time uniting people, irrespective of disparate ancestry, against the narrow self-serving agendas of the few.
