Why I Don’t Celebrate July 4

It’s July 4th, my least favorite holiday.
And I’m not referring to the bugs, or the crowds, or the traffic on the highways.
I’m talking about the mindless patriotic bubble bath we’re all supposed to soak in all weekend long.
Well, not me.
My heart does not beat faster at the strains of the Star Spangled Banner, much less at the sight of F-16s flying overhead to kick off the show.
You see, I don’t believe in patriotism.
You can call me unpatriotic if you’d like, but really I’m anti-patriotic.
I’ve been studying fascism lately, and there is one inescapable fact about it:
Nationalism is the egg that hatches fascism.
And patriotism is but the father of nationalism.
Patriotism is not something to play with. It’s highly toxic. When ingested, it corrodes the rational faculties.
It gulls people into believing their leaders.
It masks those who benefit most from state policy.
And it destroys the ability of people to get together, within the United States and across boundaries, to take on those with the most power: the multinational corporation.
Plus, it’s a war toy, wheeled out whenever a leader needs to improve his ratings by attacking some other country—often after invoking God’s name, too.
It’s been so since the Spanish-American War and World War I and right up through the Iraq War and the Afghanistan War.
American patriotism has also gotten in the way of solving global warming. Many in the United States, which consumes 25 percent of the world’s resources but has just 4 percent of the world’s population, believe we have the God-given right to use up all the resources we can. And there is an all-too-common attitude that we don’t need to listen to any other countries, or the U.N., or obey any international agreements because we’re Americans, and we’re better than everybody else.
We’ve got to get over patriotism, and we’ve got to cure the American superiority complex.
So celebrate the 4th if you like.
But as for me, between God, country, and apple pie, I’ll take the apple pie.

One of the things of note in this article is how he despises USA consumerism. America is a glutton who coddles multinational corporations.
Have you noticed how the left is crawling in bed with Multinationals. Namely Big Tech, Big Pharma and the likes of APPLE who uses slave labor to keep the devices in the hands of addicted Americans?
Have you noticed that Trump tried to pull out of Afghanistan and the left lost their shit, but when Biden said so….crickets. Right now we are almost out of Afghanistan and it will be just like Vietnam. After we are gone the Taliban will sweep in and kill anyone and everyone who even spoke to an American in the last 20 years. It will be a purge. It would have happened under Trump too so No that will not be on Biden but it will be on The Taliban and the Communist Chinese running the war against the USA in Vietnam.
America is a beacon of hope. If not then why are 200,000 people a month trying to sneak into our country instead of fleeing.
Elwood Screams “EVERYTHING SUCKS” Daily while his own party has been the leaders in keeping black people down.
CHINA says:Calls America Selfish and Racist.
One this is for sure. Progressives hate America. At least what they perceive America to be and they have aided and abetted the enemy and make no mistake about it China is trying to destroy the USA from within. The left are no allies of the flag, patriotism and Apple Pie. They are haters of every symbol used to give Americans push back against their agenda.
The destruction of the USA. The Progressive Magazine of 2010 even says so.
The GOP should be on the border greeting these people who are trying to flee into our country. They should set up pizza shops and water stations. Give them aid and comfort because these people are FLEEING everything the left wants America to become.
These people from Central and South America have much more in common with the right then the left. They are Catholics, families, hard working and dedicated to traditional values of family and GOD and the right for whatever reason is doing everything in their power to alienate them.
Except Trump. Hell even counties along the Rio Grande in Texas that have not had a republican in office for 100 years flipped red during JOE BIDEN’S MIRACULOUS VICTORY.
Hispanics and Latino’ are conservatives friends. That number should be 55 percent GOP and 30 percent Democrats and the rest indies. But the GOP has taken this approach to be confrontational with these people.
I say this for a simple reason. the minute the left realizes more Illegals that sneak in are voting GOP they will move to erect walls with lightening speed and then perhaps we can work out a generous immigration system that works for both parties but also works for America.
Until that happens, the GOP should be embracing Hispanics and welcoming them into the big tent. Everyone knows Trumps huge numbers with Minorities is why he got the most votes ever in a national election. Biden of course got 8 million more but we all know where those votes came from.
The GOP should be embracing Hispanics. They have more in common with the GOP than they ever did the DNC.
