It seems that the Democrats have taken a page straight out of a dystopian novel, but instead of a revolutionary uprising, we’re witnessing a mass immigration bonanza that they seem desperately giddy about. For years now, they’ve championed “demographics is destiny,” which essentially translates to “let’s open the borders and let anyone in, especially if they might vote for us later.” Approximately 11 million illegal aliens currently reside in the United States—a figure often cited in discussions about immigration policy. It’s practically a game of hide-and-seek played with statistics, only the results are sadder than your average blindfolded toddler.
Politico, that bastion of progressive wisdom, once admitted that our immigration policies could reshape the political setup for decades. What’s the strategy? Flood the country with millions of new Hispanic voters, creating what they termed an “electorate bonanza.” With such a bold plan, who needs boots on the ground when you can just invite a bunch of new voters to the party? It’s like throwing a wild bash, only to realize you forgot to RSVP for a few people—those pesky citizens who might disagree with the guest list.
And let’s not ignore the endless earful of progressives who are delighted about population booms in Texas and other border states. This currently translates to a warm and fuzzy feeling about welcoming “diversity,” an ideal that curiously leaves out any talk about maintaining America’s dominant cultural traditions. If only they had a magnifying glass to discover that not all cultures mesh well. After all, we’ve seen how well shared values of fundamental rights and democracy have worked in countries where shouting, “Diversity is our strength!” is somewhat akin to a stern “you shall not pass.”
Here’s a question you’ll seldom hear from our multicultural fanatics: Why are there no loud proclamations for Japan or Israel to embrace a broader mix of cultures? Is there an unspoken principle that certain countries should stay immune from the diversity push while America gets transformed into a melting pot? If diversity is the name of the game, why not have a cultural takeover in every corner of the globe? But God forbid you even suggest that. The folks who espouse multiculturalism as a panacea seem curiously selective about where it applies, almost like it’s a trendy outfit but just not fitting for their favorite boutique.
Then there’s the language conundrum. Engaging in customer service shouldn’t require deciphering a bilingual labyrinth of options—press “1” for English, “2” for who-knows-what, and by the time you figure it out, your coffee’s gone cold. English is our declared language, not a quaint suggestion put on a buffet table for delightfully chaotic selection. One might wonder if millions of Americans migrated to China, Frenching up the place, while demanding Chinese laws be re-written to accommodate their whims. It sounds ludicrous, but hey, we’re in a world where logic takes a backseat to ideology.
So here we are, swinging around contentious issues that dare not be addressed. To mention them is to invoke the god-awful accusation of being a “racist” or driver of “right-wing extremism.” In this new-age battle of ideas, one can’t help but groove to the rhythm of the left’s ever-expanding playbook. It’s a grand spectacle, really, where the only ones genuinely performed on stage are the confused audience members trying to piece together a show about a country that is quite literally transforming beneath their feet while they sit in stunned silence. And remember, if you want to keep the dialogue going—there are plenty of books to pick up that challenge these misconceptions, just be wary of the social media police lurking around!
