In the age of the internet, the viral clip is king.
00:00:41.020
And no one in politics churns out viral clips quite like Donald Trump.
00:00:45.880
During his debate with Vice President Kamala Harris,
00:00:49.040
Trump acknowledged the plight of Springfield, Ohio,
00:00:51.780
where the local population is dealing with a massive influx of Haitian immigrants
00:00:58.740
Trump's assertion that they're eating the dogs, they're eating the cats,
00:01:02.920
became the breakout clip of the debate, quickly creating a viral TikTok trend and even inspiring
00:01:09.760
The media attempted to fact-check and censor the claim, but the Streisand effect took hold.
00:01:16.400
Dozens of conservative and independent journalists began investigating the town
00:01:21.880
The nation soon learned that not only was the situation in Springfield out of control,
00:01:27.140
but it was just one of many cities across the country facing the threat of replacement-level immigration.
00:01:32.840
Once it became clear that replacement-level immigration was happening,
00:01:38.080
the media moved to the next stage of gaslighting.
00:01:41.060
Well, of course it's happening, and it's a good thing that it is.
00:01:44.500
The discussion shifted from questioning whether the government was coordinating
00:01:48.500
the mass migration of foreign populations into Midwest towns,
00:01:53.180
to debating whether this massive displacement was somehow beneficial.
00:01:57.240
Liberals quickly adopted neoconservative rhetoric, relying on the idea that raw economic activity
00:02:04.600
is the sole determining factor of communal well-being.
00:02:07.740
They argued that immigrants were revitalizing the economies of these small forgotten towns,
00:02:16.020
The claims of economic revitalization are incredibly dubious.
00:02:20.180
Most of the Haitian refugees are living on heavy federal subsidies that cover everything from housing to health care.
00:02:27.560
Yes, technically more money is being spent in those neighborhoods,
00:02:31.600
but the funds come from unsustainable and inorganic sources that are driving up the cost of living for the native population.
00:02:39.740
Working-class families are being priced out of the housing market as federally subsidized immigrants raise rents.
00:02:45.780
Crime and automotive accidents are skyrocketing,
00:02:49.340
while parents pull their children out of local schools that are overwhelmed with non-English-speaking students.
00:02:56.020
None of this matters to ideologues justifying replacement migration.
00:03:00.700
If an arbitrary economic chart shows the line going up, then the entire project is a success.
00:03:06.820
No one explains why the economy can't be revitalized by handing the same money to the town's existing population.
00:03:13.460
For some reason, only massive immigrant populations are credited with possessing this magical ability.
00:03:20.880

the people of towns like Springfield are suddenly asked to justify their desire
00:04:50.860
to maintain the character of their communities.
00:04:53.460
Both sides of the immigration debate trade abstract statistics about economic development or crime,
00:05:00.300
but it's the people whose families have lived in these communities for generations
00:05:07.860
Tiresome and lazy accusations of racism are the default slander against these communities,
00:05:14.200
even though black residents have been some of the most vocal in pushing back against mass migration.
00:05:19.780
Scornful politicians and journalists demand that these victims of cynical political maneuvers
00:05:25.620
present a rational, statistically objective case for protecting their communities.
00:05:31.460
But they should be able to make the most basic moral argument of all.
00:05:38.780

00:06:08.460
The right to associate, to form communities with others and maintain the character and way of life of those communities
00:06:19.860
The idea that what a community builds is the rightful inheritance of their posterity
00:06:25.840
and that cultural continuity from one generation to the next is worth preserving
00:06:34.420
This principle was enshrined in the U.S. Constitution, but it was taken for granted.
00:06:40.520
In a previous era, the notion that people would need an abstract academic argument
00:06:46.440
to justify preferring their own community and prioritizing its well-being
00:06:51.240
over that of strangers would have been seen as absurd.
00:06:55.180
A radical shift in epistemology now serves as a convenient tool to smuggle in dogmatic assumptions.
00:07:02.440
The idea that expert opinion and data are the only valid sources of truth in any public debate
00:07:09.740
allows the institutions that produce those experts and generate that data
00:07:19.120
The most ancient appeals suddenly become invalid in the face of expert institutions and statistics.
00:07:26.480
What if community is more than just a zone of economic activity?
00:07:31.320
What if there are critical factors like social cohesion that don't immediately show up in data
00:07:41.120
These questions are never answered because they aren't easily addressed by our new sources of authority.
00:07:48.260
In fact, they would challenge the very foundation of that authority.
00:07:53.060
Of course, our ruling class considers some communities more valuable or valid than others.
00:08:00.000
Recently, the Chicago City Council approved $51 million to house a large population of illegal immigrants
00:08:11.980
During the City Council meeting, the police had to remove several outraged residents
00:08:17.240
who demanded to know why that enormous amount of money wasn't being spent
00:08:21.940
to improve the lives of their community members instead.
00:08:25.640
The community in question was predominantly black, which will spare them from the ire of the media
00:08:31.660
and the disdain of the Democratic Party, even though the argument is the same one being made
00:08:37.620
in forgotten Midwestern towns, because we live here and we have the right to prefer our community.
00:08:45.160
Economic data can be valuable, and crime statistics are important,
00:08:49.620
but none of these metrics matter if we don't first understand the communities that they represent.
00:08:56.940
American towns and cities shouldn't be treated as sandboxes where the ruling elite
00:09:01.460
can just run social experiments until they produce the kind of subjects that they favor.
00:09:07.840
It is enough for the people of the United States to prefer their neighbors
00:09:11.560
and the way of life that they built in their communities.
00:09:14.960
It's entirely reasonable to expect a degree of ownership over what your ancestors built.
00:09:21.800
It's also acceptable to love something and defend it because it's yours,
00:09:26.320
without needing some abstract data or the validation of experts.
00:09:31.400
It is both moral and just to protect our communities from replacement migration
00:09:37.180
because we live here, and we must never be shamed into believing otherwise.
