Progressives are Racists

In all of their efforts at collective salvation and fixing a broken society the thorny issue of race and societal fitness always rears its head. The Progressive Era of the 1920s-30s ranks in my opinion as the most racist period in American history.

It was during this time the Ku Klux Klan reached its height, restrictive immigration laws (Immigration Act of 1924) blocking Eastern and Southern Europeans and Jews were imposed, and anti-Semitism ran rampant. This lasted until 1965 when the 1924 law was repealed to in order to swamp the country with low-achieving third-world immigrants for reasons we will get to shortly.

Margaret Sanger (1879 – 1966) the queen of Planned Parenthood is often accused of racism and was a major advocate of eugenics or the science of racial social engineering. I watched a film clip of Betrand Russell who advocated the that the sick, unfit, etc. should be denied medical care, etc. and let them die to reduce the burden on society.

Hitler carried eugenics so admired of Progressives of that time to its logical extremes including outright murder. Sanger and Russell are not Nazis, but Nazis and Progressives influenced each other to varying degrees.

Hitler and Progressives alike were obsessed with health and the environment, ending smoking and alcohol, etc. The Nazi socialists were genocidal racists as where Progressive socialists were passive racists. Oddly Mussolini and the Italian fascists were not racist at all nor were they anti-Semitic.

They actively protected Jews and Jews fled to Italian occupied areas of France for safety. FDR blocked Jewish immigration even in the face of Nazi atrocities and did nothing to save a single Jew or drop a single bomb on a death camp even with their massive industrial complexes feeding the Nazi war machine.

British Progressives too were highly anti-Semitic blocking the escape of Jews from Nazi terror. The Struma Tragedy in 1942 cost 769 Romanian Jews their lives when the British blocked their rickety ship from getting into Turkey who was willing to take Jewish refugees. The British would have none of it.

Towing their disabled ship out to sea they allowed its passengers to drown. Anti-Semitism (today under the nonsense term anti-Zionism) is widespread on the political left in Britain.

Let’s not forget that it was the Progressive FDR that rounded up Japanese Americans and stuck them in concentration camps and maintained a segregated (ended under Truman) armed forces.

Perhaps we are lucky FDR died on April 12, 1945. Because of his excesses the twenty-second amendment to Constitution was passed to limit the president to two terms.

Progressives are still racists and obsessed by racial equality as opposed to their racist’ eugenics of the past, but not for the reason one thinks. They don’t give a hoot about blacks or Latinos, they simply need them as useful idiots at election time. See Why Liberals and Progressives Became Racists.

They hope to use a coalition of minority victim groups and affluent white leftists to overwhelm the white middle class at the ballot box to cement their power. They incite anti-white racism as the reason for often self-inflicted failure of minorities while rewarding that same behavior with an ever expanding welfare state. Votes are so easy to buy from useful idiots.

Now that we had a brief view of the shady past of those early 20th century Progressives let’s return to Hillary, Saul Alinsky, and Professor Michael Schwalbe. Considering the history of Progressivism we have a lot to fear.
