Your comment will be blocked if you do. This prevents you from writing the phrases \u201canti-white violence,\u201d \u201canti-white policies,\u201d and \u201cant-white racism.\u201d You can, however, write anti-black, anti-Asian, or anti-Muslim without hindrance.<\/p>\n<p>Purportedly, the Washington Times is s \u201cconservative\u201d news source. However, it frequently takes pro-establishment GOP and anti-Trump positions so I dropped it from my bookmarks.<\/p>\n<p>* After the Wachowski brothers decided to go public with their autogynephilia, the Lumpengentsia sites went full-Maoist. More-PC-than-thou types started to complain when people would refer to them as the \u201cWachowskis,\u201d called it \u201ctrans-erasure.\u201d After that, people started talking non-stop about the \u201cWachowski sisters.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>* Just watched John Bolton defending Saudi Arabia over 9\/11 on Fox. Why do Neo-Cons want war with Russia but defend Saudi Arabia to the death? Jews couldn\u00b4t like Saudi Arabia very much. Why do they get a pass? Why is that a Thing!?<\/p>\n<p>* The NY Times is very slow on this trend. The phrase \u201cis that even a thing?\u201d as a cultural meme has been around at least a decade. I\u2019ve heard it in sitcoms and from stand up comedians for at least that long.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve noted the NY Times are either slow on trends or else note \u201ctrends\u201d that aren\u2019t in the popular culture but instead pranked on them by a few isolated hipsters.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re gullible dorks, basically.<\/p>\n<p>* The transformation in the language surrounding \u201ctranspersons\u201d (formerly, \u201cweirdos\u201d) has been amazingly fast. Now, you\u2019re some kind of knuckle-dragging bigot if you simply refuse to indulge someone else\u2019s self-delusions. The rapid adoption of Orwellian language such as referring to the \u201cWachowski sisters\u201d, is however unsurprising coming from people who think that the Wachowski brothers are anything more than evil degenerate hacks who are unfit for any endeavor beyond running a pornographic peep-show gallery.<\/p>\n<p>* The Overton Window of American currency has shifted left and it can never shift back. Never mind that for the last century all Presidents, left or right, supported a currency that was stable and unchanging (physically if not in terms of value). From now on, anyone against this is a KKK loving reactionary.<\/p>\n<p>Third rate countries (of whose ranks we seem eager to join) have ever changing colorful play money \u2013 the US dollar was as recognizable and iconic as Coca Cola. Messing with it physically is a signal that it is OK to mess with it in other ways \u2013 maybe you have to turn in all your \u201cold\u201d dollars for \u201cnew\u201d ones and explain to the IRS and the FBI where you got all that cash from? Maybe there should be a cap on the amount you can turn in. Etc. Shitty countries with shitty currency do this kind of stuff all the time. Why not us?<\/p>\n<p>* \u201cA few years ago the comedian Adam Carolla was speaking about transvestites on his podcast and said, \u201cWhen did we start giving a shit about these people?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I remember when Adam Carolla was shitting all over the Filipinos. He was talking about how they treat the boxer Manny Pacquiao like he was Jesus Christ because that is all they have going for them. The Philippines as an economy produces absolutely nothing. They are worthless.<\/p>\n<p>Manny Pacquiao is predicted to one day become president of The Philippines. That would be the equivalent of Mexico electing Oscar De La Hoya to be president. That is how much of a joke The Philippines is.<\/p>\n<p>No wonder so many Chinese, Japanese, and South Koreans do not want to be racially lumped in with Filipinos.<\/p>\n<p>* Trump has changed the Overton Window in some areas. Maybe he can do the same with Jackson. I don\u2019t think Jackson is getting enough credit for his service in both the Revolution and the War of 1812. Those were the only two wars in which the US was actually fighting to remain independent, and thus arguably the most important wars we\u2019ve fought. Jackson was recognized as a hero by his troops and contemporaries. His presence on the $20 bill is more justified that Gerald Ford\u2019s or George Bush\u2019s name on a super carrier.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Comments to Steve Sailer: * Steve is bringing up this point about what constitutes a thing at about the same time I have discovered that you can\u2019t type the word \u201canti-white\u201d in the Washington Times comment section.
