The Best Of Steve Sailer

* Steve Sailer writes: “…the success of Israeli nationalism has made Israel the vanguard style-setting country of the last 70 years and much of the rest of the world is now looking to the example long set by The Jewish State”.

* Sailer writes: “I suspect that Trump’s problem this week is that he looked beta to Putin’s alpha at their much denounced press conference.”

COMMENTS ON SAILER’S BLOG:

* President Trump sounded tired (and looked a bit old) in that press conference, especially when you compare it to the press conference just a few days ago, with Theresa May.

Also, Putin, although much smaller than Trump, comes across as very physically fit and vigorous in his manner, and mentally quick, more so than most other current world leaders.

Some years ago I watched part of one of Putin’s four hour long town-hall citizen Q&A sessions. He really is good at thinking on his feet and is well prepared and informed, with facts at his fingertips.

* Sailer writes: “Hispanics flock to UC Merced because they can’t get in to better UC schools because on average Hispanics can’t compete with Asians on test scores.”

I didn’t read the Jennifer Medina story in the New York Times on UC Merced because it sounded boring.

COMMENTS:

* Merced is Spanish for “mercy” or “favor”, and it does sound like someone is doing them a favor.

* I sat through my son’s graduation ceremony at SLO last month and it was one long slow cringe. First was the ( President ?) that talked about the bad old days and how far we have progressed. Then he mentioned the new dorms that were named after the now extinct Indian tribe. Next was female Afro-American who lectured about black struggles, etc. etc. Then came the gay SJW who lectured us about the time he spent teaching in the inner city. On and on. It was pretty bad. And when you consider what the school administration sounds like, I am sure the purges are coming soon.

Sadly, you want to hear something positive and congratulatory. Instead it was resentful and depressing. Contrast that to 4 years earlier in the orientation speech for the Mom’s and Dads (where all their money comes from) when they were courting the recruits. Excellence, great experience, and out in 4 years (SLO’s biggest selling point is that the average student gets out in 4 years saving junior’s time and dad’s money).

* A friend says:

Both Steve Sailer and the commentators seem to think that the UC system is superior to the Cal State University System in all ways.

Cal Poly SLO has a terrific engineering school. It is comparable to the undergraduate engineering schools at the mid range UC’s and better than the lower ones.

It also has an agricultural program which for whatever reasons don’t attract large numbers of Latinos or Blacks.

I have a real issue about comparing undergraduate educational programs at different public and private colleges and universities. The reputation of the UC system is not based on the quality of its undergraduate education. Because some of the schools are so selective, they are a sorting mechanism for intelligence of the student body, but almost all undergraduate education (except in subjects like engineering and some but not all stem) is good and can be excellent depending upon how much effort the student wants to put into it. Since grade point average as an undergraduate is one of the factors that graduate programs look at, in addition to the test scores, if someone wants to go to business, law or medical school, their best bet is to do the first two years at community college, acing all the classes and then transferring to a less competitive UC or State University, really applying themselves to get the best grades possible and then to take one (or possibly more) of the entrance exam preparation classes. This will minimize the expense and maximize the chances of acceptance into a superior graduate program.

Anyway, among the California State Universities, both Cal Poly SLO and Long Beach State are very good undergraduate schools.

Women Tend To Regret Sex That Doesn’t Lead To Marriage

Comments at Steve Sailer:

* …things like hook-up culture (either in college or the workplace) are an anathema to most women. Whether they look back fondly on a particular sexual act or not depends not on the act itself in the moment but on the long term outcome. This is totally different from men. If they got drunk and banged the boss or some Haven Monahan this can be a positive or negative experience depending on whether they ended up advancing their career in a meaningful way/had a long term relationship, or (best option) got married.

Since most of these hookups don’t end up in marriage this culture ends up not being a good experience for most women. And since most careers, even very successful careers, provide very little fulfillment compared to friends and family, most women end up unhappy with the trades that they made.

* For a long time, whites have been well trained, or just naturally inhibited, against “carding” blacks. In the mid-90’s I was friendly with a 250 lb. black guy named Hodge, who made his living scalping tickets at big sporting events like the Indy 500, the Final Four, etc. I first met him at the Oakland Coluseum, and then he became a regular at the Mon-Wed-Fri noontime basketball game on the Berkeley campus. I just assumed he’d bought a community membership like I had, but then one day we entered the buikding together, and when the desk clerk asked him for his pass, he said, “don’t bother me with that pass stuff man, I ain’t got time for that,” and just waltzed through. If I’d done the same, the kids would’ve called the cops to haul me out, but he was a fixture there for years. Nice guy though – he’d introduce me to people as “cold lefhand J.”

* In other times and places one wouldn’t need to call the police for non-criminal events. One would just politely tell the other person that what they are doing is not allowed, or that a certain place is for members only.

In a diverse setting with blacks, there is both imagined and real risk that:

1) Confronting an unknown black in public could lead to a real physical altercation;

2) Even if a physical altercation is avoided, you could still land in hot water if the black claims you used racial slurs.

So whites increasingly opt to call the cops to insulate themselves from the above. Now that is being taken away. It does seem very coordinated as if someone turned on a light switch. This has obviously been going on for some time, but all of a sudden it’s all over the news.

It just goes to show how control of the media can be used to turn almost anything toxic overnight. If people like Buchanan and Coulter ran the media, we’d have 70 percent of Americans participating in the round up of illegal aliens just by spending a couple of months highlighting each day the various crimes and scams committed by them.

Instead we are hunting down whites who just want to avoid engaging with a black “keepin it real” while the big problems go unreported and unnoticed.

* REUTERS: Dutch Foreign Minister Stef Blok defended himself on Wednesday after coming under fire for saying multi-cultural societies could never be peaceful, and former colony Suriname was a “failed state” because of its diverse ethnic makeup.

“Give me an example of a multi-ethnic, multi-cultural society, where the indigenous population still live… where they live in a peaceful, societal union,” Blok told a gathering of Dutch employees of international organizations. “I don’t know of any.”

Someone in the audience suggested Surniame, a former Dutch colony on South America’s Atlantic northern coast populated mainly by the descendants of Asian indentured workers, African slaves and indigenous people.

“I admire your optimism,” he replied. “Suriname is a failed state and that is very much linked to its ethnic composition.”

* Santa Monica is nowhere as bad in the feces department as San Francisco at present. In general, the SMPD seems to be keeping down the homeless numbers to the usual, which have been rising in the rest of SoCal ever since voters decided to vote a vast pile of money to Solve the Homeless Problem, which immediately made it worse as people from outside California rushed in for some sun and handouts. But Santa Monica has had 40 years of experience dealing with opportunists who like to camp out in the ultra-mild climate, unlike more inland parts of SoCal, such as Anaheim.
