* The only place in the media I find truly funny anymore is the comments section for the featured videos at Liveleak. It’s thoroughly macabre and nasty over there, and it’s a relief to have it. I can’t imagine the hassle of being a professional comedian these days.
Maybe we’re just slowly entering a neo-Victorian era. It happened after the British got tired of the crude excess of the Georges, and they were happy to be able to get back to delicacy and start dressing up table legs. As someone who lived through the punk era, I absolutely do not understand these neo-Victorians at all. Even their music is wimpy. It’s as if they’re mortally afraid to rock.
I think we have too many people who are the children of divorced parents, and these people have used up their last nerve just trying to make it to adulthood without psychological breakdown. None of them seem to have any internal psychological resources for dealing with their problems.

* Africans will only come to Europe if Europeans can provide jobs for them to do. Otherwise they may as well stay in Africa and work for Asians.
And thats why the worm is about to turn on immigration – we no longer have labour intensive industries in which to employ low-skilled immigrants, and without these industries big business can’t make money out of low IQ immigrants.
Population aging in itself isn’t a primary factor in immigration, it’s wealth and job opportunities – Polands population is aging faster than Sweden’s but you don’t see Africans pooring into Poland since Poland can’t provide them with jobs. Greece only has an immigration problem because it’s a doormat for immigrants trying to get into north Europe.
* God, it must be fun to go around breaking up people’s rallies and seizing the stage with impunity. Somehow I don’t think I’d get away with it–I don’t have standing.
* They remind me physically and verbally of Rosie O’Donnell. Wish Trump had been there to say, “Shut up you slobs—by the way. Lay off the Cheetos. You’re pretty damned young to be so hefty.”
That would have done my heart good.
* The funny thing is that Sanders is a race baiting demagogue himself, he just cannot use the same tactics on blacks that he uses on whites. This is probably the first time in his life he is getting a taste of what he has been giving and he does not seem to be handling it well.
* I don’t know if I have seen such self pity, such a sense of entitlement, such pushy (literally) behavior ever, excluding the conduct of three year olds. I mean the way the one black chick starts crying when she says, “I had to fight through all of this just to say that my life matters!” And the way the other black chick was screaming at the event organizer, pushing him, and almost hitting him, to yield the microphone. I had no idea it was that chaotic and frankly violent.
The word for this is: Indulgence. We are indulgent of this kind of foolishness, and these two gals, who might even be former members of a debate team, are used to getting their way, no matter how absurd and out of place their actions are.
* Donald Trump would have told them to pound sand and laughed. His refusal to back down to Megan Kelly took more balls than 99% of men can muster. The rest of the GOP field would have wilted and then started mumbling about how much they were against breast cancer or some other groveling gesture.
* I’ll wager that Black Lives Matter is just a minor flare-up, and that an increase in inner-city crime rates due to kinder, gentler policing (already seemingly underway) will make whites that much less sympathetic to it. Blacks are generally too disorganized to effect major political change; they’ll be bribed, brainwashed and outmaneuvered as necessary. Asians have a lot of resentment of whites too, as well as tendency towards passivity, but their values are basically white values and they’ll mobilize if their own interests are severely threatened (e.g., the push to end race-neutral admissions in California). The Democratic leadership understand that hypocrisy is an effective political strategy: just pretend to care about ghetto blacks and you can get away with anything.
* You haven’t lived until your restaurant meal has been interrupted by a crew of these self-centered attention whores, marching around the dining room, banging on pots and plates. “It’s all about us,” they wail. “Black Black Blackety Black!” they insist.
Any place they are permitted to go, they will practice their ‘performance art’. As hinted above, one rational response is to completely cease law-enforcement activities in black ‘hoods, since it grates so severely on dey style. I like where this is headed.
* You really have to listen to the second video starting at about 2:15 to get a sense of the crowd dynamic here.
At about this time, the black woman speaker says the wants to honor the fact that she had to fight to get through a bunch of “screaming white faces” to say that her life matters.
At this, people in the audience go into an outrage. A man starts yelling for her to “Get off! Get off!” and “How dare you! How dare you!” A woman in the audience (perhaps more than one) says, indignantly, “She called me racist! She said I’m a racist!”
It’s pretty amazing. No doubt these are people who imagine themselves the most anti-racist whites in existence, and have called everybody a hair to the right of themselves racists, and just can’t stomach the idea that someone would presume to say that THEY are racists. It just doesn’t matter if it’s the very group of blacks, and black cause, that yesterday they would have supported; they have been wounded mortally by the accusation, right in the heart of their moral superiority, and must lash out.
It’s quite a sight to behold. Frankenstein faces his monster.
* You might be a cuckservative if you compare the action on the right to these disruptions during Bernie Sander’s campaign events.
First, as discussed in length on this blog, Black Live Matter is a campaign based on fraudulent assumptions that is backed at length by POTUS, the US AG, often the courts, universities, and much of the mainstream media. The later take great pains to inflate and often distort the instances where police have killed blacks in the course of arrests. The tactics employed by these activists are entirely based on threat, confrontation, humiliation, and dominance.
Cuckservative is entirely occurring in social media and in blogs. It accepts the idea that politics is downstream from culture and it attempts to push the Overton Window to allow the discussion of what its proponents believe are verifiable truths. This Sailer blog is dedicated to those truths. The use of studies, graphs, data, works by experts is unparalleled among blogs. And it is one of many that attempt to arrive at conclusions using the same methods.
Yet to discuss these truths, and mind you the holders of these opinions are not idiots, we are often shouted down by cowardly accusations of Racist, Sexist, Misogynist, Homophobe, and the particularly stupid Transphobe. We have no support in any mainstream media. And the office holders of the GOP refuse to even mention these items on the campaign trail. They and the Republican media, along with Republican NGOs and think tanks have stood by, cowardly and allowed the church, as well as great conservative institutions and private individuals to be destroyed. And they have been ineffective in both governance and any defense of conservatism in the United States, as well as Europe.
So as the NKVD set up machine guns behind Russian troops during assaults in WWII, we too have set up behind those Republican party officials and media to remind them that we will no longer be quiet, no longer be bludgeoned not only by the left, but also by our own party into accepting positions that we feel are truly detrimental to liberty in this country, to the liveability of this country, effective governance of this country, to a tyranny based on lies.
Sailer has often hinted that a broad base of readers come to his blog, including many writers and probably elected officials. These truths are here for consumption, yet those same writers, even when exposed to this discussion by an exceptional writer and a rather august, broad based, highy intelligent set of readers and commenters, ignore these issues, and shout down discussion with epithets that worked up until now.
So we resort to more effective “meme”, a slur, delivered in an aggressive and confrontational manner, in the media, on social networks, and where years of discussion, where gigabytes of writing have failed, this tactic, coupled with the response given to by over 40% of the Republican base, a broad group that has been abandoned by the monied interest and the Republican political class, has done in a short time what prior methods failed to achieve.
Make no mistake. For many of us, if our ideas are not adopted, we do not care if Clinton wins, and if she imposes a nightmare of Democratic policies for 8 years. For many of us, this country and the tyranny it imposes on the people that built it, its best citizens, means little to us in its current form. Better Clinton kill it so we may end it and start anew in another form based on true liberty, true justice, and true freedom for all.
We do not care if “We make the black kids mad, or the fags, or the trannies, or feminists.” We will not quietly sit in our cuck chair in the corner any longer. If that is like Black Lives Matter then too damn bad.
White Lives Matter More. At least to me.
* A close reading of Mein Kampf shows it to be about controlling the megaphone during meetings of the nascent National Socialist Party versus the disruption caused by Communists in attendance (references to Jews are sparse and not central to the book which was about his “struggle” to power). Hitler and his followers knew better than to give away the mike to their adversaries. Specially trained ex-soldiers were present whose job it was to remove those who tried to disrupt the speeches.
This may be unpleasant for those here to read, but Hitler understood that control of the streets and microphone was central to power and he recognized that violent removal of those who sought to silence you was not only justifiable by necessary. He deplored the hand wringing appeasers who shirked from using force when dealing with a forceful opponent.
* Back when the Democrats actually represented the interests of working class people (pre-Clinton), there were a lot of tough union hardhat types. Such men don’t really identify much with the left-wing of the Democratic party. They’re disaffected by the Democratic worship of corporatists and Wall Streeters. They’re also turned off by all the straight white American male bashing.
These days, a lot of the hardhats have left politics or vote Republican. The masculine hardhat Democrats are either gone or aging remnants from the pre-1990s era. There are plenty who might vote Democratic, but they tend to stay away from these types of events.
Looking at the Sanders crowd on various new sites, I noticed how effeminate the progressive men appear. There’s a definite testosterone deficiency in the modern day Democratic party, except among blacks. These days, the Democratic base are an interesting coalition of feminists, immigrants, effete white guys, gays, and blacks.
In places like Seattle, the cops tend to be particularly harsh and brutal. They keep the order. The progressive white men hide behind them. It’s easy being a progressive when you got a 200-lb well-armed muscle head watching your back. Seattle pays its cops very well and attracts lots of warrior-cop types.
Progressive men in places like NYC and Seattle outsource their masculinity to raging bull (mostly white) cops. The model works well, allowing the progressives to maintain their wimpiness and stay safe.

From page 46: The writings of the widely recognized ‘father of modern racism,’ Count Arthur de Gobineau, further suggest some of the overlooked intricacies of racist thinking in regard to the Jews in the nineteenth century…
Gobineau pushed what could be called the essentialist core of racist thinking to its logical conclusion: environment did not explain the rise of civilizations but rather inherent racial genius did; the decline of civilizations was due to the dilution of that genius through race mixing. The phrase in Disraeli’s novel, ‘all is race; there is no other truth,’ was thus consistent with Gobineau’s theories. Revealingly, Gobineau considered the Jews to be one of the superior ‘white’ races and approved of their efforts throughout history to remain racially pure…
Gobineau’s racism was widely criticized, especially in his own country, but in one revealing regard it was widely accepted both in Europe and among people of European descent in the Americas: African Blacks were, he asserted, a distinctly inferior race. For Gobineau, Africans and the European lower orders had common traits — low intelligence, lack of self-control, and proclivity to violence. For all its claims to scientific validity, this view had deep roots in the European and Judeo-Christian past, going back to texts of the Bible as well as commentary on it. Indeed, the terminology of modern racial theory derived from biblical mythology in the account of Noah and his sons (Gen. 9:21-27): Shem, from whom the Semites descended; Ham, from whom the African Hamites descended; and Japheth, from whom the Europeans descended…
Some rabbinical commentary also contained proto-racist elements, enhancing for example the derogation of Blacks more than the bare biblical text in making the sons of Ham ‘ugly and dark-skinned’. The influential Jewish medieval philosopher Moses Maimonides wrote that ‘the Blacks’ nature…is below that of man and above that of a monkey.’ So Disraeli might be said to have drawn from both modern scientific and age-old sources when he concluded that if the white population of the United States were to continue to ‘mingle with [its] negro and coloured population’, an inevitable degeneration of the civilization of the young republic would be the result…
Blacks were often described as lacking in intelligence, Jews as cunning, dangerously intelligent. Blacks allegedly lacked self-control, whereas Jews were seen as disciplined and devious. Insofar as Jews were described as inferior, it usually had to do with moral issues, although their small stature, weak bodies, and odd ‘Oriental’ appearance were also mentioned. In short, negative visions of Blacks tended to describe them as animal-like, at a lower stage of evolution; they could be used in the way beasts of burden were used and were dangerous int eh way that such animals could be dangerous. But there was no concern in nineteenth-century Europe or America that Blacks were taking over the world through clandestine power and financial manipulation.

Even by prosecutors’ account, Brien Hughes had seemingly beaten the odds. The son of a drug-addicted mother and absent father whose first brush with the law came at age 14 found an outlet in football and mentoring youths. He graduated from high school — he says with a 3.5 grade-point average — and won a college scholarship.
Then he dropped out and joined a gang.
Instead of becoming a teacher or a football star, Hughes, who also went by “Poncho,” earned a leadership position in the Nine Trey Gangsters, a subset of the Bloods. He was part of a robbery crew and joined his fellow gangsters in a May 2013 home invasion in which he and others bound, beat and threatened to kill a Fredericksburg mother and her 18-year-old son.
Chaim Amalek writes: From the article: According to court papers from both sides, Hughes’s life seemed to begin spiraling downward in college, when he dropped out after one semester because of health problems. . . . The attorney, Rebecca Wade, said “Had he not gotten sick in college, he probably would be a teacher right now,” Luke, this man is your doppelganger.
But for a chance encounter on the radio with Dennis Prager (apparently known on the West Coast), Luke might have become the next superstar male porn star of porn’s Golden Age.
The fastest way I know to reset my physiology is to let go of all of my beliefs for a few seconds. When I do that (often by picturing myself as a cheetah on the savannah looking for prey), I inevitably find myself letting go of unnecessary tension in my face, neck, shoulders and back, and I usually find my mood lifting, I feel a new buoyancy, and my surroundings and my perspective seem different. I let go of all of my resentments and fears when I let go of my beliefs. I am born again.
When I let go of my beliefs, I am living in awareness rather than judgment. Both states have their place, but my default mode is to be in judgment and I am better served by living in awareness when I don’t need to be in judgment.
Another path to this place is to deliberately free myself of unnecessary tension. When I let go tension in my neck, face and back, I simultaneously let go of my beliefs and my judgments.
If I am not noticing new things in the world around me, I’m likely stuck in judgment and cognition, imposing my beliefs on the world around me, living top down, and not being open to reality.
When we are disturbed, it is inevitably because we refuse to accept reality. Usually this means we have armored ourselves with unnecessary body tension and harmful beliefs. When we let go of the unnecessary body tension, we usually let go of unnecessary beliefs. When we let go of unnecessary beliefs, we usually let go of unnecessary body tension. When you are free in your body, you are usually free in your mind and vice versa.
When you play catch, you are in the moment, living in awareness and not in philosophical judgment. You can’t judge the merits of free trade and catch a fast moving ball at the same time. You can’t think about the mechanics of salvation and efficiently swing a golf club at the same time. The more you are weighing your beliefs, the more body tension you will, and the less effective you will be at catching balls, playing a sport or in any form of performance that does not demand believing.
My beliefs are always available to me. They flood back when I stop deliberately releasing them. There’s nothing wrong with belief, but getting stuck in belief means getting stuck in increased body tension and less living in the moment.
Christopher Caldwell writes: Coates has written a provocative book about one of the pivotal issues of our time: the confrontation between black youth and forces of order. With an Internet and grassroots campaign having arisen to delegitimize the latter, it would be surprising if the issue did not gather intensity in coming months. Coates’s contribution to the discussion is not well written or well reasoned or trustworthy. But it is politically engaged, and exhilarating in the way that political engagement is exhilarating. If the book itself tells us little about the issue, the reaction to the book among intellectuals tells us a lot. It is evidence that something is changing at the core of our literary culture. Either critics have lost sight that there is such a thing as an unworthy book on a worthy subject; or they are too terrified of being tarred as racists even to give an accurate description of a book about race.
Coates’s book sets a mood rather than conducts an argument. Feeling demonized himself, he offers a counter-demonization that will convey forcefully to whites (or at least those who read it) that blacks (or at least one black author confident he speaks in their name) think white culture worthless and predatory. It will convey, too, that he considers the measures put in place to secure racial equality since the civil rights legislation in the 1960s laughably inadequate.
Both races believe race relations have deteriorated in recent years, a New York Times poll has found, with two-thirds describing them as “generally bad.”
…So the lavish praise—and even gratitude—that Between the World and Me has elicited from white elites is surprising. Truculent, aggrieved, allergic to compromise, Coates has nonetheless seen his book blown to the top of the bestseller lists on a powerful tailwind of antiracism. The cynical way of explaining its success is to note that the interests of privileged minorities (royal families, oligarchies, coteries of literary critics) are often the same as those of underprivileged minorities. Both of them distrust and seek protection against electoral majorities. In this light some of the most impassioned passages in the book are revealing. “The problem with the police is not that they are fascist pigs,” Coates writes at one point, “but that our country is ruled by majoritarian pigs.” Coates returns to this rare word in his closing pages. “We are captured, brother, surrounded by the majoritarian bandits of America.” A median voter might find such statements appalling. A New York literary critic, with his own misgivings about majoritarian views on gay rights and guns and school prayer, might find them consoling.
A less cynical explanation is to say that McWhorter is right about antiracism’s having become a substitute religion. In demanding from whites a program of infinite penance, Coates is offering them a metaphysical purpose. Many seem to welcome it, as did the Germans who flocked to the lectures of Daniel Jonah Goldhagen when he published Hitler’s Willing Executioners in 1996. Coates’s book runs whites down—but at least it gives them a role. In our day, the peer pressure to join the procession of penitents gains momentum online, from what students of Internet memes call “virtue signaling.”

Steve Sailer writes: So it’s difficult to imagine much negative impact on American per capita wealth in 2015 in an alternate universe without the slave trade.
You can tell that nobody takes very seriously the argument that African-Americans have been much of an economic boon for white Americans since 1860 by how so much black economic resentment in recent years is focused upon, say, white rappers like Macklemore for “appropriating” black innovations in popular music.
But outside of a handful of areas like pop music, it’s hard to make up a list of how blacks have, on net, made whites much money over the last 150 years, and easy, if forbidden, to notice how blacks destroyed many white urban homeowners’ net worths in the postwar era. If blacks were such moneymakers for white elites, you wouldn’t see white elites so unified in their urge to import immigrants to propel African-Americans out of elite cities, which is behind much of the furious Establishment denunciations of Donald Trump, that class traitor.
