Egalitarianism and Western Culture

The White, Western countries used to be governed and administered by White males - which was only proper, since White males built the West in the first place.

Indeed, for hundreds of years, the West was hierarchal, meaning that humans existed more-or-less by natural rank: some humans had authority over others, and few people questioned the matter. The idea of humans having "equal rights" didn't exist.

But during the past 50 years or so, a new idea has emerged in the West: the idea that all humans are "equal" to the next one in intelligence, ability and importance regardless of their race, sex, background or level of education. This new idea is known as egalitarianism.

Egalitarianism began to gain popularity in the West after World War II. Today, it is a standard feature in public schools, the media and other areas of our culture which have the ability to influence the citizenry. In fact, there are very few places today where egalitarianism isn't standard. It has spread to every corner of Western culture.

However, all humans are not the same. They vary greatly in intelligence, ability, strengths and weaknesses, so egalitarianism is actually a falsehood - which causes all manner of problems in Western society. For example, White people - as a group - should be naturally wary of Black people as a group. But thanks to egalitarianism, many Whites are no longer wary of Blacks. Furthermore, men and women are now said by many people to be "equal" in their abilities and in their ideas. Of course, men and women are different in many important ways - both physical and mental.

Egalitarianism is a phony, unnatural, un-Western idea which will lead to a) non-Whites and b) women assuming important vocational positions in the Western countries. In short, egalitarianism will create a West that American founders George Washington and Thomas Jefferson could not imagine in their wildest fantasies.

Finally, many people have suggested that egalitarianism is actually a form of Marxism, since it seeks to "equalize" Western society.
