The more \u201crights\u201d these minorities get, the more they complain and demand special privileges, not available to whites. When whites become a \u201cminority\u201d in our own country, do you think the \u201ccivil-rights\u201d acts will benefit us? I think not\u2026<\/p>\n<p>When whites become a minority, this country is finished. All one has to do is look at Zimbabwe, South Africa, and other black-run \u201cbasket cases\u201d. This is our future\u2026<\/p>\n<p>That being said\u2026<\/p>\n<p>The term \u201cracism\u201d was invented by communists, and is used to destroy cultures and defuse (and render impotent) those with differing points-of-view on \u201cracial\u201d issues.<\/p>\n<p>True \u201cracism\u201d is desirable as it merely cements cultural and social bonds that are necessary for a society to function and flourish.<\/p>\n<p>True \u201cracism\u201d merely denotes commonality of purpose and advancement within each respective racial group.<\/p>\n<p>Blacks have the NAACP and Congressional Black Caucus, Hispanics have La Raza and Mecha, Jews have the $PLC, ACLU and ADL. These are all \u201cracist\u201d organizations that serve to promote the interests (and political power) of their respective races.<\/p>\n<p>It is only whites who are castigated and threatened for attempting to show any signs of racial solidarity.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s look at what us \u201cevil, privileged\u201d whites have done for Western society and the world:<\/p>\n<p>1. \u201cCivil-rights (for some)\u201d laws (that effectively destroy \u201cfreedom of association\u201d for whites, but not for other races) and do not apply to whites\u2013only \u201cpeople of color\u201d are covered by these so-called \u201ccivil-rights (for some)\u201d protections, (Ask \u201cAttorney General\u201d Loretta Lynch about that).<\/p>\n<p>2. \u201cAffirmative action\u201d policies (that push better qualified whites out of positions and jobs that they would ordinarily qualify for) in favor of lesser-qualified minorities. In fact, \u201caffirmative action\u201d policies actually damage those minorities who are quite capable of \u201cmaking it on their own\u201d because they get \u201clumped in\u201d with the groups that cannot make it on their own without \u201chelp\u201d,<\/p>\n<p>3. \u201cContract set-asides\u201d (that are specifically targeted for minorities (that white people are prohibited from bidding on) and immigration policies (that specifically exclude whites, most of who have skills that would benefit the USA) in favor of those from the third-world (with no marketable skills).<\/p>\n<p>4. Scholarships that specify particular ethnic groups are looked upon favorably by most people, save one\u2013scholarships that are intended for whites only are looked upon as being \u201cracist\u201d, and therefore impermissible and improper in today\u2019s racially-charged climate of \u201cpolitical correctness\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>NO OTHER RACE (BUT WHITES) HAS (EVER) BENT OVER BACKWARDS to assure that all non-white races receive a \u201cfair shake\u201d in being a part of American life, even to the detriment and social well-being of \u201cour own kind\u201d (whites).<\/p>\n<p>Whites possess an externalized altruism that no other races possesses. This externalized altruism that \u201clooks out for the other guy\u201d will be the demise of the white race. This altruism needs to be internalized and focused inward, just as other races have done. There is NO SHAME in looking out for one\u2019s own kind.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMulticulturalism\u201d and \u201cdiversity\u201d are code-words for white genocide.<\/p>\n<p>I blame those of the \u201cgreatest generation\u201d for selling out our birthright with the passage of the \u201cCivil-Rights Acts\u201d of 1957 and 1964, and the \u201cHart-Cellar immigration act of 1965\u2033. To those of the \u201cgreatest generation\u201d (who are still alive) thanks for NOTHING\u2026<\/p>\n<p>As whites comprise only 6% of the world population, it is us whites who should be the most protected and cherished of minorities\u2026<\/p>\n<p>* I love how jounos treat David Simon as some kind sage on Baltimore crime issues because he wrote a TV show about crime in Baltimore. He always says the same thing, cops used to do too much and now they\u2019re not doing enough. They should do just the right amount of cop stuff. This is what passes for deep insight these days.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/Proud_bbb1cf_5726814.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/Proud_bbb1cf_5726814-300x238.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"238\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-118540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/Proud_bbb1cf_5726814-300x238.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/Proud_bbb1cf_5726814.jpg 608w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>* The alt-right is broad grouping of people who would not ordinarily be mixing. We\u2019re all here, in one big hot mess, on \u201cthose websites\u201d because the social taboo on discussing racial and gender differences is so overwhelming that no honest discussion can be had elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p>Many pro-whites, like Richard Spencer are modernists by worldview. Some even go so far as want the socialism and everything they see around them minus the wonders of diversity that the West has imported in the last 60 years or so. They want to be atheist\/agnostics, they want to not worry if cousin turns out to be a little (or a lot) loose in sexual side, they want their own sexual habits to be unencumbered, they want their weekends free, they want the government to cover them in their old age.<\/p>\n<p>In their defense, they do see that modernism not working, or otherwise they won\u2019t be pro-white. They willingly address one of the worst problems to date of modernism. That is, European societies complete lack of social cohesion to the point where they invite and pay for the barbarians to live next door.<\/p>\n<p>However, pro-whites won\u2019t go any farther than that in their thinking. They like the rest of modernism, so it\u2019s hard to do anything but say \u201cYippee for white DNA!\u201d \u201cWesterners are free!\u201d \u201cWe\u2019re so advanced that we\u2019re open on the gay thing\u201d \u201cAnd have more babies!\u201d (<\u2013This would be the sum of Richard Spencer's thinking on the subject, a single man, as far as I can tell.)\n\nMeanwhile, anyone who has strong religious faith (including those dreaded Jews) are having the large families. But that religious faith requires so much more than their comfortable modernism does. Modernism and Christianity are view points on the world that are inherently at odds.\n\nSo rather look, in security, to see if there's something there in that Christianity thing, all the pro-whites can do is snip at it and be little crazy themselves about it. Christianity, even executed at far less than perfection, challenges the core of who they think they are.\n\nIt's been my contention for a while that alt-whites (pro-whites) will have to move towards Christianity, even if it's merely to drop their hostility to it. Modernism sterilizes and atomizes our society. The barbarians are being let loose because 2000 years of the truths and rituals that create social cohesion are being ignored or angrily rejected in the name of comfort and ego.\n\n* You can blame that on the white psychopath who mowed people down with a car. Before that, Stormfront was tolerated just fine and seemed to have no trouble finding a host.\n\n* Right. Because Muslims can kill multiple people with rental trucks and we\u2019re treated to: #NotAllMuslims. One white guy, who may or may not have been a white supremacist, kills 1 girl, possibly on accident, and suddenly Stormfront is gone?\n\nKilling Jews is actually in\/supported by the Islamic theology, unlike Stormfront which will just bore to readers to death with Jewish Conspiracy theory #3,455,112 . But Muslims too can host their websites on Go Daddy because we all know that killing people with cars\/vehicles just the work of one lone crazy person and has nothing to do with the ideology. How very enlightened of us.\n\nSo yep, nothing to see here. No double standard for whites.\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Comments at Steve Sailer: * I have come to the conclusion that passing the so-called \u201ccivil-rights\u201d acts were mistakes.
