It’s bad enough Americans have to put up with self-
loathing citizens who constantly whine about the evils of our country; its
worse when we ”import” them. Students
from the University of California, Irvine submitted a resolution to ban the
American flag from the lobby of the student government. It was written by student Matthew Guevara:
“Flags
construct paradigms of conformity and sets homogenized standards for others to
obtain which in this country typically are idolized as freedom, equality, and
democracy…freedom of speech, in a space that aims to be as inclusive as
possible can be interpreted as hate speech.”
Wow! What a horrible construct. Who knew freedom, equality, and democracy was
such a hateful paradigm.
Ami Horowitz, a political satirist, interviewed Guevara. Independent Journal Review published the
following:
Horowitz: “Tell me the environment created when the American
flag was kinda hanging there in that room.”
Guevara:
“It was creating a very hostile environment…”
Horowitz then set up a perfect logical
trap:
Horowitz: “What people don’t understand
is that sometimes to be inclusive, you have to exclude things you don’t like.”
Guevara:
“Exactly…sometimes you have to exclude things.”
And got Guevara to admit some dark
stuff:
Horowitz: “You’d be equally uncomfortable
with the Nazi flag, or the ISIS flag in that room, correct?”
Guevara: “Yeah. Yeah, no question about
it.”
Horowitz: “Can you identify evil in this
world?”
Guevara:
“The U.S.”
Lastly, Horowitz set another trap–this
time, getting Guevara to directly contradict himself:
Horowitz: “Where are your parents from?”
Guevara: “Mexico.”
Horowitz: “And why did they come to the
United States?”
Guevara: “To try and find work, a better
life. The ‘American Dream.'”
Horowitz: “Instead, they found this
oppressive American country.”
Guevara: “There is no such thing as
class mobility. That’s an illusion.”
Horowitz:
“Your mother, she must be so proud that her son is going to a major
university…”
He states
there is no such thing as class mobility in the United States. I imagine it would be difficult for his
parents to climb the social ladder if they came here illegally which I have no
doubt. Yet, he is going to college, and
probably at taxpayers’ expense.
Something tells me Guevara hangs the Mexican flag in
his room. I wonder if he’ll go back to
his homeland when he gets his diploma, after all, Mexico is renowned for the
opportunities they provide for their citizens, so much so, 20% of its natives
are here in the United States.
Viva Mexico!
