Identity Politics' Eternal Dilemma will be its doom
When even a girl group reunion can't escape being politicised
90s UK girl group Eternal were all set to get together for a grand reunion. They’re not the first group from that era to get together to try and delight their fanbase, but this one hasn’t come off… because of identity politics.
Two members of the original quartet, Esther and Vernie, refuse to play along to the tune of the Alphabet Cult which in hand with the race relations industry is turning the UK into a police state. The only reason they can’t do that in the USA is due to the First Amendment, as much as the lobby types hate that.
The media however didn’t mention that the group members opposing this happen to be black. Is that a surprise? Actually, no. Because apparently your race now doesn’t matter if you’re not on board with the latest fad, which in this case is the Alphabet Cult. Suddenly, the post-Euro 2020 police state witchhunt operation in the UK has been forgotten.
Identity politics is inherently unsustainable. Clashing interests are causing it to unravel, but above all the indifference or hostility of ordinary working class people who are really doing it tough while being pilloried, lectured to and demonised by the liberal elites. They have no means to fight back against the coercive mechanisms the elites impose through lobbying, legislation and social sanction (or “cancelling”).
If music is being impacted by this insanity, what does that tell you? The UK and USA (along with Australia) were once desirable places to migrate to and live in because they were livable countries. Now our countries are at risk of becoming unlivable because of a radical minority being given the levers of power without being asked for by the electorate.
Britain has a “conservative” government? Don’t make me laugh.
The Western world is losing its collective mind, and no one really seems to care.
It's as though the once universally accepted notion of being invested in the betterment and cohesion of society is antithetical to all but the very few. In its place, narcissistic and ideologically derived self-interest, unmerited delusions of virtue, and the projection of unrestrained outrage and retribution towards any who fail to conform with the constructs of the lefts perverted social and political code of right thinking.
How anyone can possibly correlate these thought processes with the actualisation of the social nirvana they supposedly aspire to, is beyond comprehension.
