I have a few examples in mind. Let me start at a critique at a national level of what is being called “the border crisis”. Consider a nation conceived, say, ideally. Then pose the question: What nation would
allow its borders and frontiers to be breached by hordes of people who invade its territory through an act of violation of the law? And, when those millions are settled within the nation’s territory demonstrate that they are powerless to do anything about it.
One reason I think of this is because I have a university days friend, a woman, extremely liberal, who told me of her “support” for those hordes of Venezuelan illegals who are being cared and housed by the state and municipality in a particular US city where she lives and I formerly lived. When dhe spoke she used glowing terms and images of how “happy” or “smiley” they seemed, her impression of how willing to work they seemed, and then she gave them a heroic cast by stating “and they
walked here!”
Of course they did
not walk: because there are networks of transportation systems established in Panama where they are moved from country to country right up to the US border (and dark money supporting this transportation).
But when I listened to my friend, who was not motivated by an argument as such but rather by
sentiments, I realized how feminine is her mode (or lack thereof) of analysis. That these Venezuelans smile and have cute children and that they walked here is thoroughly insufficient as sound reasons for such invasion.
In my view — I refer to what is “manly” knowing that this term has come to inspire resistance — it is absolutely improper that anyone be allowed to violate the law in this manner. And if anyone allows it, or encourages it, they do so for feminine reasons. I.e. non-manly reasons, emotional reasons based in misplaces succor and an unstructured permissive ideology which is destructive for numerous reasons.
I think the ideology (however loose it is, however henid-like) that allows for open borders or permeable frontiers is a sign of non-manly weakness. You may or may not have read Kafka’s
In The Penal Colony (an extremely clever portrayal of Nietzsche’s Genealogy of Morals) but the general who runs it is corrupted and seduced by soft, sentimental womenfolk who influence him to modify rigorous policies through whispers.
My friend, you see, is motivated by generous sentiments — a type of virtuousness — but her motivations, though heartfelt, are actually destructive (though she doesn’t see it that way).
I have numerous other “concrete examples” in mind.
