Steve Bannon and the white supremacism

Steve Bannon is adviser in National Security Council at the White House, before that he occupied diferent positions in some companies, for example, in Goldman Sachs, but his last job, it was in Breitbart News a conservative and nationalist media.

His vision of the world is this faced a serious crisis about the western values and he thinks the white people is a minority and their power position is in decadence. The arrived to the White House of Barack Obama demonstrated for him, how the USA lost its identity, why an african-american became be president?, what happened with the white people in this nation?, why USA has the most important latinamerican inmigration, especially, mexican?

Well, he wasn't the first people who asked that kind of questions, intelectuals conservatives put that questions in different areas of the public life in USA. The most importan was Samuel Huntington, he talked in his books, and the academy about how another civilizations and religions put at risk the western civilization. And about the situation in USA on inmigration, particularly, mexican inmigration he wrote a book titled Who are we?: The challenges to america´s national identity, where he spoke about how the mexican inmigration represent a threath to the identity of  the USA. Because most of them don't speak english, have another culture and values. And he said openly that caucasian-european inmigration is good for USA, because they share the same values and culture, but the mexican people don't think equal. Even he begun his book with a picture about how in USA waving mexican flags in a street in this country, that's awful.

That is the seed the hate, intolerance and governmental actions against inmigration, especially mexican inmigration. Actually, muslim people and mexican people are the enemy since George W. Bush, during the goverment of Barack Obama the public speach changed but no the actions against the mexicans, especially, the deportations. But for some part of the establishment and entrepreneurs, that actions weren't enough,talk publicly about the situation it was an obligation, and Donald Trump was that person who "denounced" openly about the "mexican problem".



But behind that candidate, now president, was Bannon. He created a broad network between nationalists and white supremacists (even the KKK) inside and outside of the USA, also trough his media Breitbart News, since there he spoke about how the white workers lost their jobs, because mexican people took them, how the muslim people attack Europe and USA. He and other supporters of the movement Tea Party, called that tendency, "the alt right". Le Penn, the supporters of the Brexit, Vladimir Putin and other nationalists movements identified with them. They talk concerning inmigration, muslim people, the hate to gay people and the problem of the globalization. Another important point is how the white persons losses ground front other ethnicities. Europe keep the charge of PM for the white people, but in USA an african american arrived to the presidency, that is a signal of threat to Europe.

They don't talk openly about that, because they would be described as racists, and at this moment, they can't talk relating to his subject, it is suppose overcome, for that reason they don't speak publicly. They prefer take the control and the power over the government and the positions of power.

Therefore, Steve Bannon has an public schedule to reach, recreate a new USA with white people in the power, cristians values and where all only speak english, the white supremacism.

The weakness the mexican goverment is the strength the usa goverment

Trough the history of Mexico always it needs to see toward to the north, because it has a powerful neighbour, USA. Since USA emerged as a nation, it has seen how to expand its territory and its domain. In 1835, Mexico experimented how the USA goverment snatched its territory, not only Texas, a part important the north of territory. Gral. Santa Anna was president of goverment of Mexico, but he was a president without legitimacy and popularitie between the mexican people, the result was a big lost to Mexico, and the conviction by the USA goverment of that Mexico never would represent a real oponent. In diferent moments USA invaded mexican territory, the last time was during the mexican revolution, it tried to do once more when petroleum expropriation, but the president Lázaro Cardenas, threatned with burned petroleum towers, if USA government stepped mexican territory.

Afther that event between mexican goverment and USA goverment, they tried to understand in differents subjects, but with a predominance by the last. But, nowadays, all is change with the presidency of Donald Trump. Because he during his campaign encouraged a hate to the mexican people, he called them: rapers, thiefs and "bad hombres". And he said he would build the wall, and Mexico would pay for the wall.

But the mexican government wasn't prepare to confront to Donald Trump meanwhile he was candidate, president Peña Nieto had the mistake to invited to Donald Trump to Mexico. The president received him like a chief of state, but that gesture didn't calm the speech of hate to Mexico.

Finally, and counter all we expected, Trump won the presidency of the USA, it was like a bucket of cold water. The mexican goverment faced an internal crisis because the murder of 43 students from Guerrero, the corruption and symtomps of authoritarism and represion toward some social movements. The mexican goverment have tried to negociate not only the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and it hasn't tried speak about the build of wall and the pay. But, the mexican goverment hasn't the enough strength to faced an USA goverment led by Trump. He tried to use the weakness of president Peña Nieto to say and to do, whatever he wants.

Nowadays, strong goverments with a solid legitimacy are capable to confront any threat. But president Peña and his goverment lack of this elements and they can't unite the population and the political class. Conversely, some medias and politicians have attacked the estrategy of president Peña. Maybe a change of goverment, could face this challenge, but it may be too late.
