Why Vivek Ramaswamy's candidacy needs to be broken
I have no particular issue with much of what Ohio gubernatorial candidate, Vivek Ramaswamy says politically. I find it odd that Trump loyalists support Ramaswamy and yet hate DeSantis, when Vivek also ran for president in 2024, but other than that, there is nothing that politically stands out. His support for H1B visas is damning and yet, consistent with President Trump. So why is Vivek so problematic? The answer is simple: the Republican base is rightfully done with the race neutral, faith neutral posture of the party's leadership. We - White Christians - are not only being replaced demographically, we are being replaced politically before we are a minority. What happens when White Christian Americans are the minority and we have surrendered all of our political power to others, hoping they will embrace the same race neutral, faith neutral empathy White Christians showed them, when they were the minority? They won't.
Theologically, Ramaswamy is unacceptable because he is a Hindu. There is a weird fixation on Muslims by patriotic Americans. I understand it. The terrorism element has led to a natural disdain for Islam. But for Christians, ALL non Christian faiths should be shunned. The Bible literally commands Christians not to interact with non-Christians - let alone surrender their leadership to them. This means Hindus, Jews, Sikhs, Pagans, atheists, and Buddhists are unacceptable political leaders to a true Christian, because they can never be Godly inspired.
Hinduism is a southwest Asian pagan faith that is so disconnected from Christianity that it is hard to imagine any Christian embracing the candidacy of such an adherent. While there are some nicer sounding elements of Hinduism, there are some truly horrific, anti-American elements, as well. Namely, Hindus believe that the impoverished station of an individual is the result of actions in a previous life, such that the suffering masses have no right to receive alleviation from their plight. This is why entire slums in India are left as discarded waste lands while billionaires live within a mile of their horrific conditions. It is an anti-human, multi-god faith that shares nothing in common with the Christianity of our Founding Fathers.
Racially, there is a clear issue, as well. It is not an accident that some Anglo-sphere nations have experienced disastrous experiments with Indian leaders. The UK, Scotland, and Ireland all had terrible, anti-nativist experiences with Indian leaders. Ireland was especially devastated by a gay Indian Prime Minister who was supposedly a leader from the Irish political right. In the UK, "conservative" Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, exploded the growth of brown invaders into Great Britain. In Scotland, Humza Yousaf, a Punjabi, led the creation of the most draconian anti-free speech laws in a country that once refused to speak English, because they valued their freedom. In Canada and Australia, some of the most hard left leaders in those countries are of Indian extraction. The reason is simple: they hate White people, even when they smile and politely engage us.
The historical reasons are complex, but anti-White racial animus is ingrained in Indians because of a legacy of colonialism. It is also my opinion that many are further perturbed by our White view of them as less attractive. White women are generally prized universally for their physical beauty, and most White women want nothing to do with brown skinned men - especially those who derive from filthy customs. Finally, there is an ingrained racial dynamism that defines India in ways we simply cannot understand. India is a subcontinent that is wedged between an Oriental east, an Arab/Persian west, and a Turkic-Slav north. Race means survival in such an environment and it is a value that is genetically imprinted over millennia.
Even if India/Indians held no specific ill-will toward us, there is a fundamental reason we should reject Indian candidates, as well as candidates of any other race. We are being replaced as White people. When do we begin to galvanize around our own racial identity and work toward our own racial needs - especially the perpetuating of our people? Many Americans try to disavow identity politics, but you are in an identity political landscape. If you are in the middle of a bar brawl, you cannot sit still and refuse to fight back while trying to be the "bigger man," especially when that bar brawl is over you. Similarly, we have multiple races and ethnicities attacking us and using our political systems to advance the cause of our demise. We have to begin to see the reality of White solidarity as a matter of survival.
