* I\u2019m quite impressed with the dramatic change in direction pretty much everywhere in the West on the immigration issue.<\/p>\n

First Brexit, then Trump, freed up discussion of immigration. What they exposed is the bankruptcy of the case for immigration: it comes down to nothing more than an accusation of racism in its opponents. Nothing more than pure taboo supports it. Every fact runs against it.<\/p>\n

But taboos come and go. They can\u2019t survive open challenge.<\/p>\n

We have three more years of Trump, at the very least. I think we\u2019ll end with a very different culture surrounding immigration from the one we started with.<\/p>\n

* Despite having a strong leaning towards the left at times, the arrogant French (not really a put down) don\u2019t seem to hate themselves, or their cultural legacy, in the same way the rest of the West does. BLM can only thrive when a significant portion of the majority population truly hates itself (culturally.)<\/p>\n

* Bannon has pulled his endorsement of Paul Nehlen over his retweeting of cartoon that says \u201cIt\u2019s ok to be white\u201d. Bannon was never alt-right or even close, but he\u2019s now virtue signaling big time to put space between himself and alt-right\/white nationalism.<\/p>\n

Bannon is a big supporter of Jewish tribalism and thinks blacks are prime candidates for civic nationalism, but whites who don\u2019t hate themselves are beyond the pale for him.<\/p>\n

* Reading the piece so you guys don\u2019t have to: yes, saying that he\u2019s reading CoC and it\u2019s okay to be white is the extent of Nehlen\u2019s inflammatory activity. You have to see it through a Jewish lens: if Nehlen had stolen Palestinian land or bombed a Palestinian neighborhood or shot a Palestinian kid, that\u2019d be one thing, but reading books and tolerating whiteness is a whole \u2018nother level.<\/p>\n

* Nehlen had been on Fash The Nation during his first try at unseating Paul Ryan. I had found that odd and thought that it might have been a misstep on his part. Then he went on FTN a 2nd time and indicated that he was a regular listener.<\/p>\n

I like that he memes. I do think that he should have stuck to #ItsOkToBeWhite. That hashtag is genius in that it\u2019s very, very easy to defend in the eyes of normal people.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not sure why he\u2019s hitting the JQ so strongly, especially since his stance on the \u201cfellows\u201d is that he\u2019s willing to respect them if they respect him. Sounds a bit like Ann Coulter\u2019s stance, who just dog whistles her stance on the \u201cfellows\u201d and doesn\u2019t shout it out.<\/p>\n

* Why don\u2019t progressive men and women executives hire all of these put-upon women at a discount price and crush the competition? There must be a veritable surfeit of talented women executives out there just dying to get their chance. Yet, no one seems willing to tap that ass \u2013 sorry, that well of talent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
