Chapter 4: The Suicide of the State

4.1 Oikophobia in Practice

4.1.1 Hating the Foundation

As we discussed in Volume I, the Western elite suffers from Oikophobia—the hatred of home. At a national level, this manifests as a desire to destroy the “Nation” itself.

• The War on Borders: They view the “Border” not as a structural requirement for a State, but as a “Moral Evil.” They believe that a nation has no right to exist if it excludes anyone.
• The War on History: They view their own history as a “Catalogue of Crimes.” They teach their children that their flag is a symbol of hate.

A Builder knows: A nation is a walled garden. If you remove the walls, it is no longer a garden; it is just “the dirt.” By removing their cultural and physical borders, they are turning their “Nations” into “Zones.” A zone has no “We.” A zone is just a place where people consume products and wait for the system to fail.

4.2 The Post-National Theology

4.2.1 The “Global Citizen” Delusion

The elite believe they are “Global Citizens.” They have more in common with an elite in Singapore or Dubai than they do with the “Trash” in their own rural provinces.

They have unplugged from the Social Contract.

• In the East, the King and the Peasant are part of the same story. There is a “Duty” that goes both ways.
• In the West, the Elite have “Pivoted” away from their people. They view their own working class as an obstacle to their “Global Vision.”

This is why they celebrate Open Borders. It’s not about “helping refugees”; it’s about replacing the troublesome natives with a more compliant, low-wage labor force that has no “history” and therefore no “claims” on the elite.

4.3 The Death of the “We”

4.3.1 The Erosion of Social Trust

Robert Putnam (a Westerner) proved the “Builder’s Truth”: Diversity (without a shared ‘Thick’ culture) destroys Social Trust.

When people don’t share a language, a history, or a “Dharma,” they “hunker down.” They stop volunteering. They stop helping their neighbors. They stop caring about the “Public Good.”

• The High-Trust Miracle: The West’s wealth was built on High Trust. You could do a deal with a handshake. You could leave your tools on the site.
• The Brazilification: The West is moving toward a “Low Trust” model. Gated communities for the rich, chaos for the poor, and “Corruption” as the only way to get anything done.

The West is voluntarily destroying its most valuable asset—Social Trust—for a “Vibe” of inclusivity. It is the most expensive mistake in human history. They are burning the mahogany furniture to keep the room warm for five minutes.
