It’s funny because it’s hardly an inspiring or memorable 14 word sentence. It’s just awkward and clunky.

Like, why “secure”? Why not “safeguard” or “defend”? IMO those are stronger, more emotionally resonant words.

And why “existence”? Why not something stronger like “survival” or something more than survival like “prosperity”?

And just “a future” for white children? Not “a glorious future” or “a triumphant future”?

And, why “white children”? Not the white race?

Also, how is “a future for white children” distinct from “the existence of our people”? Are white children distinct from “our people”?

I could get it if it were framed as: we must defend our survival now so that our children can prosper. In that case you’re saying that the present might be tough but the future will be bright. But they’re not painting the future as bright, just “a future”, which is really the same as an “existence” so it’s basically saying “Our people must survive and so must our children, who are also our people, but smaller.”

Like, they memorized the first draft of some dumb saying and revere it as “the 14 words”, but it’s just badly written, nevermind all the racism.
