Look to South Africa

In
my view, the most frustrating phenomenon relative to the reign of
President Barack Obama is the unreserved sycophantic dedication held for
him by the media. Indeed, a plethora of actions taken by his
administration should have been enough to have him voted out of office,
impeached, or indicted by now, but he has been shielded by the press and
lionized by the entertainment media.
The intellectual dishonesty and outright duplicity of the press is
not restricted to on-air deceptions regarding Obama, or even domestic
issues. The aggregate compromise of America’s representation globally is
being misrepresented, as are international events.
One of the most tragic and dramatic examples of this is the transformation that has taken place in the Republic of South Africa since the end of minority white governance in 1994. “Into the Cannibal’s Pot: Lessons for America From Post-Apartheid South Africa”
by author and columnist Ilana Mercer reveals not only how the conceit
of Western liberal elites served to bring down one of the most
prosperous nations in the West, but how the same motivations and methods
are at work in America’s decline.
Mercer was born in South Africa, and her father was a staunch and
active opponent of the policy of apartheid; it is for this reason that
her family was forced to leave in the 1960s. She returned in the 1980s,
and now bears witness to how Marxists and liberal elites worldwide
conspired to destroy this nation under the pretext of Social Justice.
