What He Said: My Culture

Doc Russia writes eloquently about the culture he believes in. After some prefatory remarks about his wife's experiences growing up in Soviet Russia, and her interpretation of a contemporary politician, he describes his culture and mine:

My culture judges a man by the content of his character not the color of his skin, which is why quotas are so hateful.

My culture believes that a man has a right to the fruits of his own labors, and he may feast or famine dependant upon how fat or hungry he wishes to be, which is why taxing the food out of my mouth and giving it to the lazy bum who cannot or will not take care of themselves pisses me off.

My culture believes that men should behave as gentlemen, and women should behave as ladies, which is why watching girls in Florida luring another girl into a beatdown while the men do not protect her is so offensive.

My culture believes that government is a necessary evil that should only do those things that the private citizens cannot, which is why our blood boils when the blue ribbon panel's solution to the staggering failure of FEMA in the wake of Katrina is to... wait for it... give them more power and a bigger budget.

My culture believes that a man's faith is between him and his God, and as long as it doesn't involve sacrificing puppies or molesting children, you can pretty much believe in whatever diety you like, but we also get pissed off when people try to enforce state supported atheism by obliterating any reference to any faith, and call believers backwards yokels.

My culture is being assaulted by multiculturalism, socialism, communism, islamic fundamentalism and a whole host of other "isms."

My culture believes that the individual is the first, last, and greatest defense against the "isms" of the world, and that he can, and should avail himself of every tool in the prosecution of this defense, from soap box, to ballot box, to ammunition box.

This culture is mine. This I shall defend.
