When a nation has no identity, no core understanding of its own distinct culture or traditions, it has nothing to defend. Liberalism serves as the ideology of Western suicide because it strips the nation of that which is necessary for basic self-preservation.

00:00:27.320 Sponsored by Bell. Conditions apply.
00:00:28.580 See AirCanada.com.
00:00:30.000 We'll see you next time.
00:01:00.000 The answer is, of course, that it didn't.
00:01:13.900 None of this was sudden.
00:01:15.120 The consequences of transforming the population of Western nations should have been obvious,
00:01:19.880 and progressives have been keen on doing exactly that for decades.
00:01:23.660 It's only now, as the symbols of Western nations are pulled down by mobs of protesters bearing
00:01:28.700 foreign flags, that liberals begin to grasp the consequences their ideology has wrought.
00:01:33.080 Liberalism is the ideology of Western suicide, when once this initial and final sentence is understood, everything about liberalism, the beliefs, emotions, and values associated with it, the nature of its enchantment, its practical record, its future, falls into place.
00:01:54.820 At the core of liberalism sits the mistaken belief that humans are a blank slate onto which any form can be pressed.
00:02:02.340 For the liberal, it's the culture and institutions of a civilization that form the people, not the people who form the culture and institutions.
00:02:10.740 This means that any individual or group could be replaced with any other individual or group with more or less the same result.
00:02:19.000 If people are fungible and the West is simply an idea or a set of institutions, then there's no reason to restrict immigration to maintain the culture.
00:02:29.440 The floodgates can be opened and the magical dirt of America or Britain will suddenly transform any new arrival into a good citizen.
00:02:38.180 Liberalism holds that humans are rational actors who, when presented with compelling arguments,
00:02:43.140 will sort through the available options and select from among them the ideas that are most advantageous to the civilization in which they live.
00:02:51.880 No systems or beliefs are objectively true or inherently superior,
00:02:56.940 but you just want the ones that can provide the most efficiency or prosperity to the individual.
00:03:02.440 The invisible hand of the marketplace of ideas should, in theory, guide the democratic process that will then produce the most rational and advantageous outcome.
00:03:11.460 But it's difficult to watch armies of clashing protesters reenact a conflict half a world away
00:03:17.420 and believe that liberalism has selected what is best for the United States.
00:03:21.940 When a nation has no identity, no core understanding of its own distinct culture or traditions, it has nothing to defend.
00:03:30.540 Liberalism serves as the ideology of Western suicide because it strips the nation of that which is necessary for basic self-preservation.

00:05:12.000 For a nation to survive, it must prefer its own culture, traditions, language, history, and folkways above any other.
00:05:20.340 Throughout history, this preference was usually seen as innate because these aspects of civilization were understood to emanate from the character of the nation's people,
00:05:29.720 not a checklist of ideological preferences accumulated through rational discourse.
00:05:33.680 What's better than a well-marbled ribeye sizzling on the barbecue?

00:06:01.020 By exposing every societal axiom to the cold deconstruction of the marketplace,
00:06:10.500 liberalism stripped away the fundamental nature of Western nations,
00:06:14.540 leaving them spiritually rootless and open to attack.
00:06:18.020 A nation without a strong foundation is incapable of defending itself against hostile ideologies or populations,
00:06:24.680 and this has become painfully evident in the West.
00:06:27.240 In America, university students and faculty have been preaching about the evils of the United States and whiteness for years,
00:06:35.440 but only now that those chants have turned on Israel do many see the need to fight back.
00:06:41.180 In Great Britain, migrant grooming gangs have victimized countless young English girls,
00:06:45.560 but only now that those same mobs are chanting from the river to the sea are there calls for deportation.
00:06:52.320 While it's nice for those who warned about immigration to finally receive some level of vindication,
00:06:57.960 it's cold comfort that comes too late for the many victims who suffered as liberals put their ideology before the well-being of the nation.
00:07:05.020 The rise of wokeness and the fact that such a hateful, illogical, and destructive belief system could gain hold in Western nations
00:07:13.720 speaks to the incredible spiritual vulnerability liberalism creates.
00:07:19.300 Ultimately, liberalism is the opiate meant to allow the West to accept its disillusion without a fight,
00:07:25.780 but Burnham said this need not be the case.
00:07:28.240 For Western nations to endure, they need only find the will to survive.
00:07:34.640 In America, borders could be closed. Immigration could end. 0.71
00:07:38.620 English could become the only language of the land. 0.71
00:07:41.520 A strong preference for Christian tradition could be restored.
00:07:44.580 And an unshakable commitment to the culture that founded the nation could be re-established.
00:07:49.620 This would mean discarding the notions of an open cosmopolitan society, multiculturalism, and the blank slate.
00:07:56.560 This would mean the end of liberalism.
00:07:59.740 But if liberalism doesn't end, the West most certainly will.
