>Without a common moral universe, a multiracial and culturally diverse society like the United States can shatter into a thousand fragments. If that happens, everybody loses.
>Some within the black community automatically spring to the defense of any blacks on trial for crimes against whites. In other words, they deny the common moral universe on which the advancement of blacks has depended so crucially in the past. Moreover, tribalism is a dangerous tactic for any minority in a country where the biggest tribe of all is white.
>Already there are white hate groups capitalizing on the new tribalism to recruit followers for their own brand of tribalism. A poll not long ago showed, for the first time, that younger whites were less sympathetic toward blacks than older whites. Such is the "success" of efforts to dismantle the moral universe and deny its common application to all.
Thomas Sowell literally wrote this in 1994. I had no idea that the writing on the wall was already visible back then?
He is right. That is why elites wish to homogenize society so that they can create a new fundamentally earthly morality and reason for existing based on the state. Jesus is coming.
Ryder Morgan
Well, he's not wrong
Sowell is the only black who has ascended niggatry
Thomas Torres
I wasn't politically aware then but I think this stuff was picking up in the 90s. There were the LA riots, the OJ trial, other BLM-like incidents. The Bush years just put it on hold.
Ryan Bell
I feel like Sowell is speaking to his fellow blacks in a covert way to not appear racist, basically he's warning them to be grateful, know their place, and not to wake up the white man. Because the implication is that the tribalism of blacks is going to awake the tribalism of whites, and when that occurs than god help blacks and other non-whites living in white countries.
The thing that shocks me about this warning is that Sowell wrote this in 1994. I thought the current polarization between blacks and whites really kicked off this decade with social media and after the trayvon incident. But it seems sowell saw the signs over two decades ago.
I think you may be right. I knew race relations weren't perfect in the 2000s, but it never felt bad as it is this decade. I'm not sure about the 90s since I was born in 91.
Gabriel Kelly
Nah, racial polarization it's as old as time itself.
Dylan Baker
Thomas Sowell is right, as usual.
But I say this is mostly a problem with the media.
And blacks aren't the only, or even the most coherent/nepotistic of the various tribal identities

The early 90s were still the tail end of the "Oh God, everything is going to shit! Drugs, gangs, AIDS, and acid rain!" panic ftom the 80s. You had D.A.R.E. messages in the startup sequence for arcade games. Hillary pushed for a major crime bill, and the criminal Bill in her bed signed a major gun grab, which lost him the House in 1994.

The writing was on the wall long ago when Nietzsche said the same thing.

Brayden Stewart
I was watching a SKorean historical drama about an early kingdom before the unification and the king in it said something I found profound.
He said: "I want a kingdom that shares the same language, the same prayers, sings the same songs, has the same culture through out. For how else can we be a single, strong country instead of warring tribes."
Sure, it was some actor on some show, but the idea I found quite profound. We can argue about what government type is best and such but the people *needs* to have common ground in order to be a functional country.
Jordan Foster
>Thomas Sowell literally wrote this in 1994.
Gen X user here, and yeah, I'm in my 40s.
We knew back in the 90s that people like Spike Lee, Al Sharpton and John Singleton were planting the seeds for the revival of white supremacist movements. They were deliberately profiting from the division of society.
They were also oppressing their own people by constantly pushing the victim complex upon them. There is nothing more insidious. It's always the guy who says "I'm here to help you brother" who is part of your own group, who actually means you the most harm.
Jaxson Clark
There's no such a thing as an homogeneous country anymore.
Tyler Ortiz
Would you say that this seed planting occurred more in the 90s than in the 2000s?

Jonathan Sanchez
The planting occurred in the early 20th century when the socialist movement took off in America. It went into remission because of Liberalism's success and prosperity after WWII, especially after it became clear that socialism was failing in the communist world.
It came back in the 60's - 70's, along with the cultural revolution. Feminism, racial equalitarianism, Title IX, the sexual revolution, the beginning of mass immigration, etc... All the foundations of our current culture war were layed by the 70's. It was a chaotic time and crime skyrocketed, and so (((they))) stopped pushing for a bit and festered in academia, training the next generation of culture warriors and infecting more of the administrative state.
In the 90's they poked their heads out to see if the time was right for a revolution. But the economy was good with the emerging internet and the Soviet Union collapsing was a symbolic score for Liberalism, so they ducked back into the academy and HR offices to fester for another decade.
Obama's election and then the gay marriage SCOTUS decision was like a rallying cry to bring all the cockroaches back out again.
Julian Barnes
I love how the one timeline which everyone can agree we AREN'T in is the one where the elites and intelligence agencies just chill out and try to keep things stable and safe and prosperous. NOPE, it's accepted wisdom that whoever's in the driver's seat invariably must try their hand at ZOG LARPing.
Eli Rogers
What possible move by the elites could be construed as making society more stable in the past 50 years? Hard mode: hopeless conservative lost causes like the war on drugs don't count.
Aiden James
>I had no idea that the writing on the wall was already visible back then?
It's been visible since it started back in the 60s to anyone with their head not up their fucking ass.
Isaac James
The writing was on the wall as far back as the 80's.
but the 90's is when PC culture and moral liberalism really started setting in.
Consider, we were so dumbed down by reality TV, that the President having a sex scandal, (and one that wasn't his first) was "fun" and nobody cared. We were so drunk on prosperity that the sole fact that our scandals were now about sex and infidelity rather than corruption or politics, was telling of "how good we have it."
Mind you, the 90's is when Blacks became "African Americans." And in the 90's there was already a sort of resurgence in African "culture". black folks wearing clothes based on african fashion and shit. We thought they looked kind of funny, and "out there", and hell, white people had some weird fashion in the 70's and 80's so what the hell right?
PC culture really started in the 90's, and let's not forget, we had actual race riots in the 90's. Crown Heights and LA, in '91 and '92 respectively.
We had Rodney King and O.J. Simpson in the 90's. In fact, Rodney king is what sparked the LA riots.
Rap started in the 90's and "gangsta" rap became popular in that decade too, hitting it's peak in the 00's, glorifying crime, drugs, degeneracy, and general "thug" life. Black involvement in white music types like Rock or pop or anything all but stopped, as almost the entire black community latched onto Rap, and hip-hop.
of course hindsight is 20/20, but if you had enough foresight, and any sort of understanding of black culture and history and trends, such as Sowell tends to have, you can see how he predicted that shit back then. I mean, if we were having race riots in the early 90's, what would the future hold if things did not get better, but in fact got worse?
Noah Bell
rap goes back to the 70s at least, but it wasn't "gangster" like it is now

I'm curious. How old are you? I'm 29, and my entire life, the media has been dramatically underreporting black-on-white crime, dramatically over reporting white-on-black crime, shaming institutions that were too white, celebrating black tribalism, and mercilessly shaming any hint of white tribalism.
Nathaniel Turner
Because it ends in shit like what's going on in Myanmar. Sure the muzzies were asking for it. But we're not going to reach the stars if we're too busy burning and raiding other tribes.
Carson Gray
youtube.com/watch?v=E7sdsw4qKSM It's almost funny how psychopathic nigger culture got in the 90's. Just the blatant subhumanism of it. I guess that's why even libruls like Clinton started locking them up and throwing away the keys.

Paul Kersey once tweeted that Thomas Sowell sent him a letter and that he would release it after he dies. I'd be really interested to see if he was ever able to admit to himself the truth about the Black Question.

Jonathan Richardson
When African slaves came to America, one group was put to work in the fields and bred for that activity. Another group was brought into the house and bred for that activity. What you have is two sub species of nigger in America. The field nigger and the house nigger. The field nigger is dumb strong and brutish while the house nigger is smarter, often smaller and far more friendly. The field niggers have been trained to hate the house niggers now and won't listen to their fellow niggers who are smart enough to understand that niggers are fucked if they don't act right for whitey. This is what Thomas Sowell is trying to express. This seems to be a unique distinction for American niggers BTW.

Either blacks simmer down and become decent people like Sowell, or they continue to chimp out at whites with ever-increasing severity. Which do you think is more likely?
Throw Spencer under the bus if you want, but eventually you're going to need white nationalism just to stay safe from ghouls.
Christopher Sanchez
Sowell is a fucking genius, you cuck.
He's stating that dumbass identitiy politics are a symptom of (((liberal))) manipulation. Jews did it to blacks who in turn aredoing it to whites.

Not even making a moral or racial judgement on this, most people cannot be like Thomas Sowell. People behave semi rationally based on their situation, and the rational move for a lot of welfare queens is to be welfare queens. A good insight of Sowell is that even if the races were totally equal, Democratic victim worship would keep niggers down economically. Since we know the races aren't equal, this problem is just multiplied.
Nathaniel Cook
Spencer's cryptomarxism does trigger me, but I would maintain that he means well and has had a generally good effect. Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.
