Indeed. The neocons tend to love Reagan, since the genesis of neoconservatism and neoliberalism are both Jewish.
So why, in the 80s, during the Thatcher and Reagan revolutions, did Boomers decide to
the real reason is that wives and daughters of rich/powerful ppl wanted "something 2 do" and it became very hot trend to do non-profit fundraising...this existed b4 but womonz have been given moar and moar by men as time goes on recently...anyway, so these men say fug it, take this fundraiser etc...Meanwhile they say -- well fug it, we mite as well take a percentage -- and then the wives feel happy they are making moneyz too...
and of course it was fashionable for lower c lasses to give to charity, go 2 charity events etc...and so it goes, on and on
But why was the giving focused so much on the third world? Meanwhile, the US was seeing an explosion in homelessness due to de-institutionalization of the mentally ill, but it wasn't nearly as trendy to pay any attention to them.
becuz this was exclusive, any1 can halp local homeless, but halping strange foreign niggers? This is like saintly, this is moral feeling of roastie at the time. There was counter-feeling 2, mocking of this, but we see what the dominant culture was and is, in richer circles
This trend in charitable giving was skewed very anti-nationalist.
even now if u go to "exclusive" universities or speak 2 graduates this is wat they profess, and many earnestly, or at least as earnest as they can be. If something else captures them, this thing will go away (I have seen it happen) -- but there is always risk of relapse. Better if they are invigorated but there is little 2 invigorate them, there is no youthful leader who is so inspiring among these circles. Sad!
