| [UNZ Review] Sen. Kamala Harris talks a lot about "our American values." Ditto the rest of the female candidates who’ve declared for president in the busy Democratic field. They all lecture us about "values." "Our American values are under attack," Harris has tweeted. "Babies are being ripped from their parents at the border ..." As her own proud "know your values moment," the Democrat from California pinpoints the U.S. Senate Supreme Court confirmation proceedings inflicted on Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. To manipulate Americans, politicians have always used the values cudgel. With respect to immigration, the idea is to impress upon gullible Americans that the world has a global Right of Return to the U.S. Fail to accept egalitarian immigration for all into America; and you are flouting the very essence of Americanism. (Or, to use liberal argumentation, you’re Hitler.) When politicians pule about the importance of preserving "our values," they mean their values: Barack Obama’s values, Hillary Clinton’s values, Angela Merkel’s values, Chucky Schumer’s values, Jeff Bezos’ values, the late John McMussolini’s values, Lindsey Graham’s values, and Jared and Ivanka’s values (but not Trump’s). When a politician preaches about "the values that make our country great," to quote Mrs. Clinton, chances are they mean multiculturalism, pluralism, wide-swung borders, Islam as peace, communities divided by diversity as a net positive, and the Constitution (it mandates all the above, just ask Ruth Bader Ginsburg) as a living, breathing, mutating philosophical malignancy. |

| #3 An anti-american lecturing me on American Values is like a vegetarian lecturing me on which BBQ is the best. |
