When I first saw this quoted on Twitter I assumed it was satire–someone had simply substituted “Chinese” for “White”. One reason for that is I’ve found myself making this argument to SJW friends and family: “this white privilege business is silly. Go to China and you won’t see people arguing about ‘Han Chinese privilege’.” Well,Continue reading “Pirating Social Justice”

The Waiting
One more foul emanation of enforced diversity: that morbid interval after an act of mass violence, as we two increasingly divided sides of our split nation wait to learn the identity of the culprit and where the narrative impact will land. Diversity not only divides by placing entire communities of strangers in our midst, itContinue reading “The Waiting”
Trump Names the Tools
From the new administration’s whitehouse.gov website: Our job is not to make life more comfortable for the rioter, the looter, or the violent disrupter.As if calling rioters rioters and looters looters wasn’t triggering enough to the Establishment, in using the word “disrupter” the administration is calling out one of the pop-ideologies of the opposition that seeks toContinue reading “Trump Names the Tools”
New World Order
Kevin MacDonald quotes from evolutionary anthropologist John Tooby’s article about “coalitional instincts” in response this year’s “annual question” at Edge.org, “What Scientific Concept Should be More Widely Known” (emphasis added): Coalition-mindedness makes everyone, including scientists, far stupider in coalitional collectivities than as individuals. Paradoxically, a political party united by supernatural beliefs can revise its beliefs about economicsContinue reading “New World Order”
The Curious Case of Bradley’s Button
Yesterday Steve Sailer noted today how Chelsea (nee Bradley) Manning’s gender dysphoria, having gone from footnote to forefront during his incarceration along with the rise of the trans rights movement, is now seen by fashionable convention as a legitimate sympathy factor favoring President Obama’s commutation of his sentence, as evidenced by the New York Times: It’sContinue reading “The Curious Case of Bradley’s Button”
Life in Black and White
Does endorsement of the rioting in Charlotte in response to a police shooting, without any of the usual plausible-enough elements of police misconduct–suspect was not “unarmed”, cop is black, etc– represent a Rubicon crossed for supporters of the Black Lives movement? Is it now that any shooting of a black suspect must prompt rioting? HaveContinue reading “Life in Black and White”
Same as it Ever was
With several assassinations now of police and at least one attempted mass murder of white civilians motivated by the Black Lives Matter movement it bears asking if it constitutes genuine political terrorism or just a higher level of black hostility toward law enforcement and whites. The loose structure and inherent chaos of BLM work somewhat to immunize itContinue reading “Same as it Ever was”
Cognitive Dissonance and Cowardice
When Lavish “Diamond” Reynolds live broadcast the death of Philando Castile some whites were puzzled by her calm demeanor in the circumstances, narrating events in a stereotypical ghetto monotone normally associated with passive aggressive customer service agents of a certain demographic. When I saw it on Twitter I thought at first it was a hoax; Reynolds comesContinue reading “Cognitive Dissonance and Cowardice”
Tied in Knots
“Ban the box” is a movement to outlaw employers asking applicants if they have a criminal history, motivated largely by the disparate impact it has on non-Asian minorities due to their higher rates of incarceration. According to the Guardian link above, it’s necessary because of “research suggesting that three-quarters of employers admit to using aContinue reading “Tied in Knots”
Thanks for Everything, F— You
The Nazis and the old Soviet Union assigned political officers to military units to enforce ideological conformity. The Stasi was legendary for getting civilians to inform on each other for the slightest breaches of ideology–what we would call political correctness. Needless to say, we would never do any such thing. We don’t need commissars toContinue reading “Thanks for Everything, F— You”
