This is an interesting piece, not so much because of the precise claims being made, but by virtue of the fact that the author is an Indian.
Jayant Bhandari writes of the way that the USA is sliding into third world status as a result of grievance politics and immigration:
America is a land of dreams, a land of liberty, and a land of refuge for the oppressed, a society that courageous, hard-working people who came from Europe created.
Okay. Speaking for myself, I wouldn't leave out the contributions of the west-coast Chinese or Africans, but they were indeed in the minority.
Anyone who thinks that it is racism of America that stops him from succeeding in life is merely transferring responsibly for his own failings and laziness, or is trying to make people of European origin feel guilty to extract resources. Such a person has no gratitude for what he got, but worries only about what he didn’t get—this beggar-mentality is a part of the hellhole, Third World cultural milieu that is increasingly an acceptable part of the public discourse in America.
This Indian fellow is sounding a lot like the people at the Center for Immigration Studies.
Of course, as Ilhan Omar demonstrates, bigotry against those of European origin is not only perfectly acceptable, but encouraged. Such bigotry is seen as a sign of having arrived, a sign that these refugees and immigrants are superior.
Yes, there's an incentive to mock whites and engage in grievance politics.
Even at meritocratic companies, colored people get preference, assuming everything else being similar to other candidates.
True, affirmative action. Which, incidentally, was never designed to give Turks or Congolese any form of preference. It was put in place as a measure of atonement for slavery.
In today’s America, while everyone is allowed to be proud of his religion, race, and the hellholes he or his parents left behind, there is one group of people who are expected to feel guilty about their race. These are people of European origin, exactly the people who are the reason behind the grand success of America, and for much of the intellectual capital of humanity.
Remember, this guy is not white.
They are made to feel guilty because they, apart from East Asians, are the only people who have the potential to feel guilt and shame.
An Indian speaking honestly about the lack of guilt and shame in other cultures.
In the land of the free, today any accusation against people of European origin for being racist is all that it takes to destroy their career and social life.
This is true.
People of north European origin are by far the least racist and least sexist people on the planet, the reason why everyone from the around the world wants to come to places run by them.
Which, I would argue, is a big mistake. Ethnocentrism has major advantages.
The colored people, Muslims and blacks prefer to work for a boss who is of north European origin, for he is likely to be fair and generous. They face most of animosity from people of their own kind, blacks from blacks, and Muslims from Muslims, and Indians from Indians, but then hypocritically they blame any of their failures to white-privilege.
Again, this is not a white writer.
America is indeed a melting-pot but only for those who want to assimilate.
I would argue that there is no such thing as assimilation in large numbers.
Once the US has become a Third World disaster, hopefully splintered off into smaller units, they should reflect on two lessons. Multiethnic, multicultural, multiracial societies do not work.
An Indian has first hand knowledge of this, as any visitor to India can attest.
