A perspective on European socialism and the psychology that underlies it (warning, contains not-nice truths and a high order of political incorrectness the offensiveness of which is compounded by a flagrant display of intelligence):
I tend to agree that socialism is more odoriferous in a society with differenct races, most particularly when those races manifest differences that make a difference (eg, IQ and propensity to violence). Perhaps, on this line of reasoning, the partial Islamization of Europe will provoke it to a renewed appreciation of competition and virility--a renaissance of the higher orders, a reclamation of powers once renounced.
We, however, we Americans, who have pursued the tenebrous temptation so far, find ourselves on the brink of some unknown threshold by pressure of mere numbers, by gross failure to understand the fundaments of demographic fate--in the newest generation, America is already a white minority nation. But, the meaning of this is unknown, especially since the non-whites races possess such different characteristics that their numbers vis-a-vis each other may come to matter even more than the degree of white decline. The tremendous socialist momentum from the New Deal to the Great Society and its Nixonian aftershocks, a revolutionary 40 years, has largely dissipated over the last 40 years. And this latter period happened to coincide with the dramatic demographic eclipse of white Americans. An accident of history, no doubt.
