Sometimes, I'm asked why I'm conservative...

[Darkwind]

... and they talk about compassion.

But real compassion comes not from what government can give you, but what you can, through your own efforts, give to yourself and your family.

I watch a lot of inspirational videos and I see the truth of My stance almost every day.

Athletes are being helped across a finish line in a grueling distance race, but if you notice, the people who help do so only when the physical limit of endurance is reached. Until then, to help them is to rob them of all the effort and mental toughness that they endured to achieve that one moment.

It isn't about winning. Its about surviving your own personal test.

So I watch things like this to remind Me of the enduring spirit of humanity and I will actually sit here and speak out when they fall.

"Don't help him. Don't touch him. Don't rob him of his dream."

I think of the people who formed neighborhood groups for emergencies stating those not members will get no assistance from them.

I think of those who didn't join and how they needed the help of others.

I think of the nastiness and shitiness of Libertarians and followers of Rand's nutty Objectivism.

When we raise the right people with the right values, self-sufficiency becomes the norm, and we no longer have to rely upon the false compassion of the government looking out for us.

There is a difference between the values of helping a neighbor and demanding that we give all life to the government.

You missed the whole point.

It's not government compassion.

No one is actually demanding or even asking we give all life to government.

The point is you are living with caricatures, stereotypes, et al.

“All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost;

... and they talk about compassion.

“All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost;

One of my paraprosdokians is this:

"Not all those who wander are lost, but I am."

Noch einmal bitte:

"No man is an island, but I am a remote peninsula."

I could not have said it better Dark one

But it's a concept most of the left , who want big bro to go after their neighbors, do not realize the consequences of

There are different kinds of conservatives. I am in favor of legal abortion, and gay marriage, so one might not call me a conservative. Nevertheless, I am pessimistic about human nature and human potential, and I think there is often wisdom in tradition. In a broader, philosophical way I am a conservative. Nevertheless, I vote Democrat.

I am neither a white supremacist nor a white nationalist. I am a race realist.

Race realists believe that race is an important, biological classifications of humans, that the races differ in average ability levels and behavior, and that these differences are the result of evolving in response to different population pressures lasting for thousands of years.

More specifically, race realists take note of the facts that East Asians tend to be more intelligent than whites of European descent, and that they have lower rates of crime and illegitimacy. Whites of European descent tend to be much more intelligent than Negroes. We have much lower rates of crime and illegitimacy than Negroes. Race realism acknowledges average differences; it does not assert absolute differences. There are stupid, promiscuous, East Asian criminals, but I have never known any.

Race realism can be seen as conservative or even reactionary, because the assertions of race realism can be used to argue that the civil rights legislation and the War on Poverty were unfortunate.

An excellent introduction to race realism is "Race, evolution, and behavior," by Professor J. Philippe Rushton, of The University of Western Ontario.
