LAST DITCH OF DEMOCRACY - Majority Rights

Mr. Kipling wrote Habitation Enforced, Mr. H. James replied to it in a
rather more realistic study. In fact he took up Kip’s romantic sentimental
theme, and examined it.
Kip presenting the dear American who came over and fitted in perfectly,
and Henry James the American sentimentalist who came over expecting
and very much annoyed the British remnant of the family, who didn’t
understand what the fellow was up to. Well now, suppose you quietly try
to analyze the basis for the supposed anglophilia. Apart from Whore
Belisha’s ad hoc propaganda, Anglo-Israel and other spurious articles.
Yes, there were, in America, Tory families and rebel families. I mean in
1776. At [the] start, say 1750 or 60, almost nobody wanted to separate.
But the bullheaded swinishness, greed, dishonesty, meanness of King
George’s government’s ruling pigs of the period finally forced half the
Torys into the opposition. Remaining Tory families think very highly of
themselves, but are not, and for 150 years have NOT been very highly
thought of by others. The old revolution families think very, very highly
of themselves, but no longer constitute a majority in America.
Alas the day, etc. they did NOT develop a lasting sense of responsibility.
I know a few of ’em had it once. At any rate, with them it is kifkif, 50/50
as to whether they take snob in their ancestry, and British origin, or are
still fighting the Revolutionary War (as I am, at odd moments) for your
own good, oh naturally. The Anglo Saxon race never fights a war except
for the good of somebody or other. BUT the ruling class in America is
no longer wholly of English origin. People from Thraxstead married the
Rileys, for example. And that wasn’t all of it. In and about 1848 there
was a beneficial German migration, not merely the oirish ever
enamoured of the Crown of owld England, and later migrations. Slaves
from Africa, chattel slaves, black ones, then more or less white ones, or
swarthy ones, got over, dumped in for purpose of industrial slavery, and
to work for the usury system.
