Fighting a political disease by injecting the disease
The main political and ethical problem
with special interest lobbies who represent nations and ethnic
groups is the "supremacy" of their ethnocentrism, which
amounts to "racial supremacy." It is not their
ethnocentrism that is the problem, it's their interest (often hidden)
in supremacy. Ethnocentrism is entirely normal and a primary part of
real human nature; it is a big part of the biological origin of much
of our social behavior, which led to the central survival success of
group-selection, and altruism.
Special interest lobbies like Israel,
Saudi Arabia, Black and Hispanic lobbies, and White racial
groups, promote their own special interests often by blaming the other
groups for being racial supremacists while ignoring or hiding their
own racial supremacism. And on and on it goes with the far-right and
far-left getting angrier and angrier, seeing their own groups falling
back in numbers and power, which often leads to civil war, pogroms,
and genocide.
Like fighting a political disease by
injecting the disease, we can fight the special interest lobbies who
push their own racial and national supremacy not by promoting and
finagling our own supremacism but by promoting an ethnopluralism of
ethnostates, in harmony with real human nature.
An ethnopluralism of ethnostates could
be accomplished in the U. S. with only a few amendments to the
constitutional separation of powers and states, where different
ethnic groups could politically and culturally conduct themselves
according to who they actually are in their own
states and regions, with a federalism mainly for the geopolitical heft to defend
the ethnostates in the big world. And it needs to be done legally and
nonviolently.
An ethnopluralism of ethnostates is the
natural, ethical, legal, and practical way to counter
special interest lobbies that represent unfair
supremacist nations and ethnic groups.
