Brett Stevens writes: …on the Right there is often talk about “Zionism” as being a horrible evil which intends to take over the world, forgetting that Zionism is an assertion of Nationalism—the idea that Jews need their own state, and all Jews belong there, where they can control their destiny and live according to their ways.
Its opposite is diaspora thinking, or the idea that Jews should live in every country on earth and try to be dual citizens there. The extreme of diaspora thinking is the idea that Jews must be exterminated because they corrupt these nations, and having them have a nation of their own is impossible.
Back when Ben Shapiro was writing most ardently on this issue, he stated the case for Nationalism as a way for high-IQ populations to defend themselves against assimilation by the much numerically superior third world populations:
“Here is the bottom line: If you believe that the Jewish state has a right to exist, then you must allow Israel to transfer the Palestinians and the Israeli-Arabs from Judea, Samaria, Gaza and Israel proper. It’s an ugly solution, but it is the only solution. And it is far less ugly than the prospect of bloody conflict ad infinitum. When two populations are constantly enmeshed in conflict, it is insane to suggest that somehow deep-seated ideological change will miraculously occur, allowing the two sides to live together.
Unfortunately, this insanity is generally accepted as ‘the only way forward.’ President Bush accepts it because it is politically palatable. The Arabs accept it because for them, it is a Trojan horse. The Israelis accept it because they are afraid that if they expel the Arabs, they will be called Nazis.”
In Israel, Jews have the ability to live as they want according to their cultural mandate. The more people act against Israel, the more the diaspora persists, creating the usual diversity conflict which is that multiple groups living in the same place prevents a value system from being chosen and upheld.
In the West, we live through the same invasion, not just of Muslims but of many other third world groups who reproduce faster than we do, and will replace us with a mixed-race population that has third-world levels of ability, moral character, and inclination to social order.
For Israel to survive, it must adopt a policy of exclusion not just of Palestinians but all others. When this happens, the presumptive victims of Nationalism during the Second World War will have validated it as a necessary principle, and the rest of us can begin to adopt it from our countries, which are also under risk of third world assimilation.

The Seattle Mariners has suspended catcher Steve Clevenger for the remainder of the Major League Baseball season over controversial tweets in which he called the Black Lives Matter movement and President Barack Obama “pathetic.”
Clevenger posted a series of comments on Twitter on Thursday, two days after Keith Lamont Scott, a 43-year-old black man, was fatally shot by police in Charlotte, North Carolina.
The Mariners catcher appeared to suggest that those protesting against Scott’s shooting should be locked up “like animals.” He also mocked athletes who have been protesting by kneeling during the national anthem at sports events.
“Black people beating whites when a thug got shot holding a gun by a black officer haha s–t cracks me up! Keep kneeling for the anthem!” Clevenger tweeted on Thursday.
“BLM is pathetic once again! Obama is pathetic once again! Everyone involved should be locked behind bars like animals,” another tweet from his account read.
Mariners general manager Jerry Dipoto quickly responded to Clevenger’s tweets, saying in a statement Thursday that the organization “strongly” disagreed with the player’s comments and that it was “examining all internal options” regarding the player.
“The Seattle Mariners are very disappointed at the tweets posted on Steve Clevenger’s account,” Dipoto said in the statement. “While he is certainly free to express himself, his tweets do not in any way represent the opinions of the Seattle Mariners. We strongly disagree with the language and tone of his comments. We are currently examining all internal options that are available to us as we determine appropriate next steps. We will have no further comment at this time.”
The white commissioner of the NFL, Roger Goodell, has, on multiple occasions, praised Kaepernick and other black players for starting a “white people are always wrong” conversation (-monologue) on race:
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell says the league will encourage players to use their voice to promote social change as the demonstrations during the national anthem started by San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick last month continue to spread to other teams.
…Goodell told a group of reporters the movement from “protests to progress” is a positive sign.
“As I’ve said before, I truly respect our players wanting to speak out and change the community,” Goodell said. “We don’t live in a perfect society. We want them to use that voice. And they’re moving from protests to progress and trying to make things happen in the communities. And I admire that about our players, on(being) willing to do that.
And he enthusiastically championed Kaepernick’s protest–even though it has led to a sharp drop in the ratings.
In contrast, Major League baseball’s Clevenger’s treatment is worse even that what happened to John Rocker. He was forced to undergo “diversity training” (= brainwashing) after the infamous Sports Illustratedarticle quoting him back in 2000. “Chilling” is the only word that can describe Clevenger’s swift suspension [Mariners suspend Steve Clevenger after inflammatory tweets, ESPN, September 23, 2016]
Note that ludicrous cuck Skip Bayless, a white sports pundit for Fox Sports 1, called for Clevenger’s immediate release from the team. He also showily virtue-signaled by loudly proclaiming he was “ashamed to share this man’s [Clevenger] skin color”:
I am appalled that another white American — a professional athlete no less — is capable of typing these thoughts in a public forum, in two different tweets, and actually hitting “send.” You want to talk about showing your true colors in public?
Welcome to Occupied America. White professional athletes have to either shut up or run the risk of being suspended without pay, with white sportscasters calling for your banishment from the sport. Read more.
COMMENTS:
* These two incidents speak volumes about the racial double-standards that have taken root in America.
They also prove to us that a ‘hostile elite’ now dominates our culture and media.
Part of this immediate problem has to do with the outlook and identity of the owners of many professional sports franchises. Yet the problem far bigger than that.
Modern taboos against white racial identity are vast and deep. And decades in the making. Even the SCOTUS has played an enormous role in this unhealthy transformation.
White schools and neighborhoods must be integrated by law. But minority neighborhoods and ‘communities’ may remain proudly separate if they choose.
Where’s the ‘equal treatment under law’?
In this new progressive universe, some groups are definitely more equal than others. The media treatment of Kaepernik and Clevenger epitomize this bizarre and poisonous phenomena.
These double-standards are an assault on white citizens and white America.
Is saying this still legal? It may not be for long.
Meanwhile, elite media has gotten in the habit of instructing Americans how to think about race, about American history, human history and where our civilization is supposed to be going. And they have no interest in providing their adversaries ‘equal time’.
If the dominant force has its way, where white Americans are going is in a direction of less freedom and less influence in the civilization that they and their ancestors created.
Unlike certain ‘minorities’, white Americans are prohibited from coalescing along racial lines, to identify openly as a racial group with group interests, or to enjoy the same rights of free speech and freedom of association that victim groups enjoy.
Worse still, these injurious transformations are likely to accelerate under a Clinton presidency.
Fortunately, these media-driven incidents are becoming a rallying point for white Americans who are slowly waking up to reality.
White Americans are witnessing the fraud and failure of ‘non-racial, anti-discriminatory’ liberalism. Racism is merely kinship writ large. It’s everywhere. The racist antics of a coddled, millionaire football player only prove it.
Sadly, Y Pluribus Unum is dead. But don’t blame its demise on white America. They tried.
* Football isn’t handling this as badly as I thought. Goodell is being less of a cuck than I expected — his comments don’t give the protesters what they really wanted, but steer them toward more constructive outlets. The real issue is at the team level. Kaepernick’s team still employs him but they would have to pay him anyway, and he hasn’t seen the field. Maybe he’ll get cut after the season for football reasons. The right thing to do is not to attend games, at least of teams that behave badly.
And focus on other sports that seem to be catching this contagion.
How would San Diego baseball do if no white fans came to the stadium for the rest of this year, and season ticket sales tanked for next year?
NBA season is coming up and it will be interesting. Majority black teams, highest paid athletes who don’t have super long career expectancy like in baseball. Athletes have much nicer contracts than in football — guarantees, no-trade clauses, etc. BLM stuff is being discussed in the NBA training camps.
Some smart players see the issue. At the Olympics, Carmelo Anthony stepped away from the issue, and he used to be one of the leaders of the anti-white nonsense. But Stephen Curry is being very annoying about it. What will we see, and how will largely-white NBA game attendance be affected?

As a rule, reporters like to keep their stories interesting, which is why the coverage we’ve seen of Alicia Machado is so curious.
This has been the week of Machado, who became famous literally overnight when Hillary Clinton brought her up at Monday’s debate. The next day saw numerous outlets writing pieces on Machado, boosted along by a conference call held by the Clinton campaign for journalists.
The former Miss Universe, who says that Donald Trump fat-shamed her and alleges that he called her “Ms. Piggy” and “Ms. Housekeeping,” and generally humiliated her after she put on weight, is now the star of a Clinton ad. An obscure figure in America less than a week ago, Machado is perhaps the biggest story in politics at the moment.
So it’s almost inexplicable that, despite all this coverage, the publications discussing the extraordinary stories of her life are mostly right-wing ones.
The most interesting thing about the mainstream articles is what they leave out. There is no discussion at CNN or The New York Times, for instance, about her post-pageant fame as the fiancée of Phillies outfielder Bobby Abreu, or how he reportedly called it off after a reality show she was on revealed video of her apparently having sex with a housemate.
Likewise, there is little mention of how a Venezuelan judge once alleged on live TV that Machado had threatened to kill him. Or how the Mexican attorney general’s office later said she was the girlfriend of a major narco trafficker, and that she he had a child with him, according to Univision and other outlets. Or how a government witness who reportedly testified about their affair was later shot to death.
A certain reticence is fair and appropriate when discussing the private lives of people alleging abuse at the hands of powerful men. The Clintons, of course, are no strangers to this, as they have been accused repeatedly of trying to smear women who’ve said President Clinton was sexually inappropriate with them.
But there’s something odd about news coverage that avoids easily available and fascinating stories about that person’s life. And it’s especially peculiar when that person is a campaign surrogate for a major party nominee, which is what Machado is now. …
But that doesn’t mean that her life, which has been reported on extensively in the Spanish language press, should be sanitized and whitewashed by the press. The political media is not in the beatification business; if it’s out there, readers deserve to know it.
And it is all out there. …
From an objective standpoint, this is all interesting stuff! Is it relevant to Machado’s current role in the Clinton campaign? Let’s take a look at what CNN and The New York Times reported about her life.
The CNN story, which includes a total of four bylines, limits its main Machado story to a discussion of how Trump treated her. After Clinton name-checked her in the debate, the story reports Machado saying that she began “crying because I never imagined that such an important person like her would care about my story, know about my story.”
As the CNN story notes, Machado made that statement on a conference call with reporters organized by the Clinton campaign. There is no mention in the story of the judge, the kingpin, or the baseball player.
The New York Times, however, went for more of a dive into who Machado is in a double-bylined story that ran Tuesday, “Shocked and Angry: Alicia Machado, a Miss Universe Mocked by Donald Trump.”
The Times reports that Machado was born in Venezuela and has endured 20 years of “agony” due to Trump’s behavior. “I was sick – anorexia and bulimia for five years,” Machado says.
It goes on to note that Machado has “done a series of interviews” with the Times this year. Towards the end, it notes that she is “a well-known actress” in Latin America.
And now she is a well-known political figure in America, a star surrogate for the leading contender for our presidency, which brings with it its own level of scrutiny and expectations.
Machado has lived a full life, and a uniquely fascinating one. So why would any journalist avoid talking about it?
The immigration / voting question is the big one. Machado is the Democrats’ self-selected epitome of their strategy of winning by importing dubious foreign ringers to vote for them.
COMMENTS:
* “Almost inexplicable?” Yeah, almost, except for the tiny, easily overlooked fact that they all want Hillary to win.
But aside from, what possible explanation could there be?
* There is all this talk about foreign actors trying to influence our elections. Forget the foreign actors. Our own press is trying to influence the election. And the Machado story is exhibit A in how they came together with one campaign to collude and prepare a pre-cooked story ready to be served to the American public at a specified time. Their continued ignoring of the unpleasant details only adds to the evidence of their treachery.
* I read this as the closest thing we’ll ever get to a public confession from the MSM that they screwed up by hitching on to this woman’s story without doing a quick Google search first.
Hell, single women these days are smart enough to Google the heck out of any potential suitors. Wouldn’t it be wise to to apply at least that level of scrutiny with somebody you’re about to make the poster child of your multimillion-dollar political campaign?

I believe the author is right that the Overton Window is shifting so that things once impermissable to say in public are now more acceptable.
I don’t find euphemisms such as “anti-Semitism” useful. When did you ever hear of anti-Gentilism? Yet Jews have just as many negative feelings about non-Jews as non-Jews have about Jews. There is anti-Jewish sentiment as there is anti-gentile sentiment, but only one of those feelings gets any press.
The New York Times and the Washington Post and the rest of the MSM are as much Hillary Clinton’s mouthpieces as Breitbart is Trump’s mouthpiece.
That an attack is “anti-Semitic” does not invalidate it. That argument is just name-calling. There are only two honorable forms of arguments — contesting facts or logic.
Noticing patterns is a useful trait. There are patterns to how Jews act and think and speak, just as there are patterns to how WASPs act and think and speak.
Yair Rosenberg argues: “And with the explicit invocation of her Jewishness, it abandons the dog whistle for the fog horn.” Yeah, that’s not exactly crystal clear clarity there, either, mate. It’s just name-calling.
According to Rosenberg: “Trump’s then-campaign manager Corey Lewandowski manhandled a Breitbart reporter at an event…” If Corey Lewandowski pushing Michelle Fields aside is “manhandling”, then Rosenberg is not in touch with reality, truth and honor. Men are treated this way all the time and it is rarely if ever called “manhandling.”
If we don’t elect Trump now, we’ll choose Hitler later. If you get hysterical about Trump’s anti-Semitism now, how will you react when the real thing comes along? What invective will be left?
Last month, Donald Trump tapped Stephen Bannon, the chairman of Breitbart News, to be his campaign’s new CEO. Today, Breitbart published an anti-Semitic screed against Washington Post columnist Anne Applebaum. Titled “WaPo’s Anne Applebaum Embarks On Kremlin-Style Disinformation Offensive vs. the Anti-Globalist Right,” the piece is a meandering, conspiratorial critique of Applebaum’s political stances. And as meandering conspiratorial pieces tend to do, it ultimately introduces its target’s Jewishness for no reason at all:
[H]ell hath no fury like a Polish, Jewish, American elitist scorned. Following the fall from grace, Applebaum began utilizing her global media contacts, disbursing heavily curated and obfuscated “facts patterns” meant to construct an anti-democratic global news narrative depicting the new democratically elected Law & Justice government as far right fascists and illiberal anti-democrats.
Essentially, the piece is 1,400-word fever dream about a Jewish agent working for a globalist conspiracy. Rather than offering a serious critique of Applebaum’s views, it offers dark innuendo. And with the explicit invocation of her Jewishness, it abandons the dog whistle for the fog horn. (Unsurprisingly, the piece’s comments section is full of enthusiastic anti-Semites.)
The links between the Trump campaign and Breitbart are well known. Indeed, under Bannon’s leadership, Breitbart had become so pro-Trump that some staffers speculated it was being secretly funded by the candidate. Infamously, after Trump’s then-campaign manager Corey Lewandowski manhandled a Breitbart reporter at an event, the outlet refused to stand by her, even in the face of video evidence. After she quit the site, it began running attack articles against her. Meanwhile, Bannon boasted of making his site “the platform for the alt-right,” the anti-Semitic fringe that has played a disproportionate role in advocating for Trump online.
The appearance of blatant anti-Semitic propaganda on the Trump campaign’s surrogate site is still more evidence that a vote for Trump is a vote for mainstreaming anti-Semites and their invective. As I wrote after Donald Trump Jr. and Trump adviser Lt.-General Mike Flynn retweeted anti-Semites, “it is doubtful that any of them are personally prejudiced toward Jews.” But while Trump and his inner circle may not themselves be anti-Jewish,
The problem, rather, is that Donald Trump’s campaign attracts and is dependent on a hardcore base of anti-Semites. Which means his administration will be as well. Pro-Trump discourse, memes, and advocacy are disproportionately produced by racists, from Kevin McDonald to David Duke to the alt-right, and it is impossible to support the candidate without amplifying these bigoted boosters and their influence. To be sure, all political campaigns—left and right—inevitably attract fringe nuts, and it would be wrong to discredit a cause simply because some racists have attached themselves to it. But the bigots aren’t ancillary to Trump’s campaign; in many respects, they are his campaign.
This is not a hypothesis or supposition. It is a fact. A data-analytics firm has found that 62 percent of Donald Trump’s retweets come from white supremacists praising him. The campaign inadvertently selected an anti-Semitic white supremacist leader as one of its delegates in California, before media reports compelled them to withdraw him…
The elevation of these hateful voices has been disturbing enough during the campaign. But should Trump be elected, these are the people who will inevitably end up filling many of the hundreds of positions in his White House, given that most traditional Republican operatives refuse to work for him.
Breitbart’s anti-Semitic turn is still more proof that the more Trump goes mainstream, the more his bigoted supporters and their claims will as well.

I have no idea what Dez Bryant was doing — or thinking — Monday and Tuesday.
All I know is he hurt his right knee Sunday night in the lopsided victory over the Chicago Bears but continued to play on it and wound up catching his first touchdown pass of the season. His presence on the field is vital to the success of the Cowboys, especially with a rookie quarterback taking the snaps.
Bryant is too important to this franchise to skip team meetings and fail to show up for injury treatment and any scheduled MRIs. The Cowboys identified his value to the team in 2015 with a five-year, $70 million contract. For that money, the Cowboys expect him to show up when he’s supposed to show up — which he didn’t on Monday or Tuesday.
