America was solidly white about 20 years ago. Then in the late 2000's you saw articles popping up about how whites are becoming minorities and how the Left no longer needed them. Then the anti-white hivemind started feeling safer in showing its face. America was only "post-racial" because whites were a dominant majority, whites showing ingroup preference were demonized, and nonwhites were bribed with affirmative action/welfare. Whites are becoming a hated minority in a low-trust, low-IQ country. Things will fall apart. You can already see the glue becoming unstuck from the 60's to today. We're going to undergo some form of balkanization.
Our Founders knew the dangers of diversity:

The numbers may have changed but America was definitely not solidly white about 20 years ago, at least in my neck of the woods it wasn't.
To expound a bit on what I meant, I believe in the
ideal American society had 20 years ago which was to treat people as individuals first and foremost, that's the ideal we're losing sight of and that's bad.
Horseshit theory is just the dialectic in work. The thesis of socialism and the antithesis of nationalism will have a synthesis.
The American empire managed to keep itself together through use of fear of the evil red menace (which disproves your later point). There was a ten year period in the 90s where nothing really was going on, but that was just it; it only lasted ten years. That is hardly evidence of anything "working." TPTB knew it wasn't going to last long especially with another bubble pop in the late 90s, so a new target of ZOG imperialism was created with Islamic extremism (Islam is right about women and gays). I wasn't around in the 90s, but do know that black and white culture were still fairly segregated and all white communities were still very common.
I never made an argument about things being a perfect utopia. I think there are better options than something that is basically a nightmare of cultural degeneration. I also don't care about this vague notion of "success." Who's successful in the modern society? Roid-raging sportsballers, infantile pop-stars, sexually perverted actors, and Zuckerberg. In reality, the truly successful man is one who cares for his family, one who keeps his hubris in check, one who contributes to his community. A proper society is one that provides the material conditions where this is both possible and common.
"Everyone is assholes; people need to stop being mean."
While I could pass this off as just a childish outlook on current events, I will say that the events you listed are connected. The "assholes" you mentioned are malicious elements within the United States and other western governments that use their combined power over the media, capital, and culture to exploit us and accomplish their goals.
There's nothing wrong with being afraid of legitimate threats. And this is not a fear of the unknown, that's a liberal canard. No these are legitimate observable things that I prefer not to happen. I'm reminded of this cartoon that shows two different sides of a river, where one side's institutions are all heroic while the other side's are barbaric. The reality is is that both sides think the same thing about the other. Unilateral acceptance of the other side will mean one side's destruction. Now you may think that both sides could be accepting of each other and things would be fine, but looking back on history, the likelihood of that happening is slim; it's simple game theory really.
You also need to consider that different people have their own customs. Much of the West is dominated by western culture and our concepts of law and society. We have our taboos, we have our rituals. Would you say it's fair that we impose that on the rest of the world? Would you say it's fair that the foreign peoples of the world must be ruled by an outside force that doesn't understand their practices and philosophy, let alone speak their language? If the answer is anything other than "no" you are more of a warmongerer and imperialist than me.
You weren't around in the 90s? How old are you? Well I was and I can tell you that it was a completely different vibe in American society back then, the best way I can describe it is it was much like the present day, but without all the bullshit, people as a rule were more down to Earth and tuned into reality.
The 90s was a pretty progressive, multicultural and multiethnic time, but if you went around spouting the anti-white hate that is accepted in modern mainstream woke culture all but the most insane would have looked at you like a lunatic back then, even if they were very liberal themselves.
One thing I remember about 90s culture for example is everyone was big into their cultural heritages back then, many black Americans were big into African art, African music and clothing and stuff like that and many white Americans of Scotch-Irish descent were big into Celtic type culture, think Braveheart, Riverdance, The Cranberries, Enya etc and we didn't get a million think pieces about how it was racist for white Americans to enjoy Riverdance as we would today, everyone was free to be proud of their cultural heritage regardless of what it was, even white people, provided it was something tangible, like Celtic or Irish culture and not generically "proud to be white" which what does "white" even mean? Today we have so many people who are just so damn proud to be "black" and "brown" and similarly, what does that even mean? "white" "black" "brown" mean nothing.
And danger is real, but fear is a choice, one can address real dangers in a logical, rational way without giving too much into the emotions of fear, which make one irrational and only heightens the danger.
For the record, no, I don't think the west should impose our ideals on the entire world, it's not our job to be policeman of the entire world.
I'm sorry guys, I know racism is appealing because it's something easy to understand, but the one thing I feel very confident in saying is that we live in an almost unfathomably complicated universe, we are just small fish floating in a vast sea, the sheer scope and scale of the "big picture" of true objective reality would probably be something too much for the human mind to actually comprehend.
So therefore racism just seems like something far too simple to me, it sets off my bullshit detector.
