This is War

Three blog posts reveal the pattern. They are at war and there is no mistaking it for anything else.Firstly here is Radix's Charles Jansen quoting David Hume:

The [Tories] are commonly less assuming and dogmatical in conversation, more apt to make concessions; and tho' not, perhaps, more susceptible of conviction, yet more able to bear contradiction than the [Whigs]; who are apt to fly out upon any opposition, and to regard one as a mercenary designing fellow, if he argues with any coolness and impartiality, or makes any concessions to their adversaries.

David Hume noticed these differences 250 years ago. These differences persist to this day. Steve Sailer notices them as well.

A friend with a lot of experience in how the media works calls to note that his prediction last fall that the prestige press would just bury the Haven Monahan hoax with boring technical details is coming true. He says: They never admit a Loss; every narrative is either a Win or a Rainout. This one is becoming a tedious, indeterminate rainout.

Finally Vox Day perceives the same effect.

They will lie and and dissemble and exaggerate and spin with such shameless abandon that the average individual will find it almost impossible to believe they are doing so.

Vox seems to be under the impression that they all do this because of a character defect, but I think they are just immoral & know full well what effect they are having. Vox quotes Sun Tzu:

 War is a thing of pretence: therefore, when capable of action, we pretend disability; when near to the enemy, we pretend to be far; when far away, we pretend to be near. Allure the enemy by giving him a small advantage. Confuse and capture him. If there be defects, give an appearance of perfection, and awe the enemy. Pretend to be strong, and so cause the enemy to avoid you. Make him angry, and confuse his plans. Pretend to be inferior, and cause him to despise you. If he have superabundance of strength, tire him out; if united, make divisions in his camp. Attack weak points, and appear in unexpected places.

I think many know this damn well without ever having read Sun Tzu. The Left is obsessed with politics & they seek to achieve victory by any means at hand. In a more hierarchical system these strategies might open them to ridicule, but as respect for any sort of authority (religious, political, cultural) has eroded, thanks in no small part to demotic politics, they are more & more able to cheat, dissemble, & deflect. First the left destroyed the old battlefield & then they created a new one customized to their own needs. This war was decades old before Hume noticed it & it is only now entering its final phase. We would all be well advised to read & understand a little more Sun Tzu.

The Decline of the West

The joys of multicultural Britain:

Two builders attack a traffic warden, smashing him over the head with his radio in a dispute over a parking ticket.
Video footage captured on the phone of a passer-by shows the men punching and kicking the victim until he falls to the ground.
The 45-year-old victim, who has not been identified, managed to call for help from the police and London Ambulance Service after pressing a panic button on the machine.

The rule of law is beginning to fail in the west. I can't imagine this growing generation of malignant narcissists will tolerate being being bullied by a government for which they have no respect. The violence is spreading and will only get worse.

These people are inhabitants of these countries not citizens. To the immigrant the west is just a place to get money. Now whites are learning it is not their country anymore, therefore living by its rules now seems farcical.  

Privileged Jewish Oikophobia

So this happened:

Is that overly harsh? Well, screw it. I can't help it right now, Grayson. I'm caught up in the moment. You may be a perfectly nice kid, but it's a reflexive thing at this point; I know it's cliché, but I still feel about Duke the same way I feel about watching dudes wearing Google Glass toast with shots of Fireball. There's something physically revolting about watching an otherwise brilliant Final Four – populated by a Wisconsin team that proved one of the most charismatic in the recent history of college basketball, and vanquished the mother of dragons we call Calipari – wind up with Duke winning it all. It felt like it violated every rule of fun that Bill Raftery has established over the years, in working toward finally broadcasting his first-ever national championship game (at one point, I swear he worked in a reference to dietitians). It felt like getting to the end of a 700-page novel only to find out that the murderer was the one you presumed it was from page 3.

 What can you do about these seething resentments held by the most privileged against a powerless minority.

Conservakins & Republicans

Well it's been a hell of a good time to be a reactionary lately as long as you can laugh instead of cry at the antics of the Consevakins & their nemeses in the Republican party. Remember when Mike Pence was seen as a conservative? Well he proved true to his type. If being a conservative means anything in modern America it means running in fear when the opposition becomes a little too mean. Let's hear the latest from our esteemed ally:

Indiana Republican leaders are set to announce a deal Thursday morning that alters Indiana's controversial "religious freedom" law to ensure it does not discriminate against gay and lesbian customers of Indiana businesses.
The proposal — which grants new protections for LGBT customers, employees and tenants — is set for a 9 a.m. rollout at the Statehouse and a 9:30 a.m. committee hearing. It closely mirrors a draft plan that was circulated early Wednesday morning and could potentially quell concerns that have made Indiana the focus of national derision for one very intense week.
Senate President Pro Tem David Long, R-Fort Wayne, and House Speaker Brian Bosma, R-Indianapolis, spent 90 minutes meeting late Wednesday evening discussing the deal with top staff and Gov. Mike Pence's chief of staff, Jim Atterholt.
"We feel there is a strong consensus," Long said Wednesday night, following the meeting. "We feel good about it. We did a lot of hard work to bring the groups together to find the comfort level everyone feels does the job of truly saying this does not discriminate against anyone."
Atterholt, a former state lawmaker himself, did not say whether Pence would sign the compromise measure. As he walked from the meeting, Atterholt said that Pence still needed to review the plan.

Well, Mr. Pence has to review it. What a brave, brave man.

The fact that someone in a pizza shop in Walkerton Indiana doesn't approve of gay marriage is national story. The death threats by leftist are a totally sane reaction. 

Massive drought in California? Is the water from the Colorado river is being diverted to LA & San Diego instead of the central valley? Who cares? It's not like the vast majority of our country's fresh produce comes from California's central valley.

Iran's getting nukes? Is nuclear proliferation really such a big deal? I know let's call a Persian family in Tehran ask them what they think & if they don't agree with us we'll send them death threats.

The American middle class has had no income growth in 45 years. What can we do? I know, we'll talk about gay weddings so they'll be distracted while this country's elite hollow out the economy. There may be 50% unemployment among millenials, but at least they can sodomize whoever they want. Isn't that what America's really all about?

On Mandatory Voting

Let the Infernal Columns run rampant, I'd prefer a fair fight. I'm looking forward to watching as the American Left takes off its mask once & for all. The sooner people realize we are subjects of the state & not citizens of a country the better. The progressives need voters to keep up the sham that we are a free people. As Rousseau said "we will force you to be free." Free means obedience to the "General Will", it means being bound to a "Social Contract" designed by the graduates of Harvard Law & Wharton Business schools for the benefit of the Kochs, Adelsons, Soroses, Bushes, & Clintons. Voting maintains the illusion of legitimacy. Without this "legitimacy" the apparatchiks might develop a conscience. I have little doubt the forces of progress are willing to commit any atrocity for their failed god and therefore will likely smash the (insignificant) right in this country. At least it will be the first honest thing they've done in 150 years. It's their country not ours. It's high time they finally took responsibility for it.

How will American Jews deal with white privilege?

American Jews will have to deal with the fact that to the vast herds of vibrants they are the wealthiest & most privileged whites of all. It changes nothing that they see themselves as non-white or even that most white nationalists & ethno-nationalists see them as non-white too. It does not change the essential paleness of their skin & their incredible wealth & privilege.

American Jews will have to adjust to this & they will have three possible reactions.

First they may double down on their identity as victims. stressing their history as an oppressed people and using the Holocaust narrative as a shield & as a bludgeon against the various ethnicities. This tactic works so well against whites and especially against the fly-over country evangelicals that they are tempted to see it as a perfect defense against all accusations of privilege. However the Asians, Blacks, and mestizos do not see themselves as guilty of anything and can rightly point out that they had no part of any American bigotry against the Jews. The fact that the American south was wholly accepting of jews never acted as a defense in the eyes of left wing Jews. So I think they are going to be in the same boat as the Irish who use mythical tales of discrimination as an attempt to deflect criticism for their openly chauvinistic racial attitudes. To the current anti-racist whether one is Catholic Irish or Jewish American doesn't matter what matters is their privilege.

Second American Jews may try to minimize their demonization through contempt & deflection the whole while holding on to victim status. The use of laughter as a weapon against their detractors is a useful & powerful weapon. The American comedy scene is as dominated by Jews as any other part of the entertainment industry. Through dominance of the information industries they will be able to hold the line against the racial animus caused by multiculturalism. Jewish domination on American Universities is beginning to slip & if the Gramascians & Cultural Marxists are right this will topple Jewish cultural dominance.

Third the American Jews might surrender their place in the atrocity Olympics and embrace their place as the gatekeepers of American culture & begin to defend American culture against postmodernity and come to see American whites as their natural allies just as many Zionists have.

What are Jewish institutions doing now? Well they seem to be trying to simultaneously follow the first & second strategies.

Here is a sample of a general attack on Multiculturalism by an avowedly Jewish publication. 

One might well add, Why stop with Ovid? Has anyone taken a look at the Old Testament recently? Lot’s two daughters slept with him in order to continue his line (Genesis 19). Joshua slaughtered 12,000 Canaanites in one day (Joshua 8) and soon thereafter “smote all the country of the hills, and of the south, and of the vale, and of the springs, and all their kings: He left none remaining, but utterly destroyed all that breathed, as the Lord God of Israel commanded” (Joshua 10:40). In the Holy Book, no one is judged harshly for war crimes. Is the Bible a manual for righteous massacres? Should trigger warnings be mandated? Should the Columbia Core print up a new edition of the Bible with a frontispiece warning the tender reader against the gruesome stories to be found therein?

 This is exactly the sort of defense against Political Correctness put up by authors decades ago at the National Review & American Spectator.But this is not a Neocon, but a man of the left.

Todd Gitlin, professor of journalism and sociology and chair of the Ph.D. program in Communications at Columbia University, is the author of The Sixties: Years of Hope, Days of Rage; Occupy Nation: The Roots, the Spirit, and the Promise of Occupy Wall Street; and, with Liel Leibovitz, The Chosen Peoples: America, Israel, and the Ordeals of Divine Election.

This is not the oeuvre of a committed rightist, but a mainstream leftist. Yet something has changed for him the radicals in academia are a threat if not yet an outright foe. Perhaps there is a reason for this.

At the end of last year, the American Studies Association earned more press attention than it has in its entire history by voting to boycott Israeli academic institutions. The effect of the boycott has been devastating—not to Israel, where apparently its sole effect has been to interfere with the dissertation work of one Arab graduate student, but to the ASA itself. Immediately after the vote, hundreds of college presidents and faculty leaders blasted the organization, with several schools withdrawing their membership. This fall, the ASA embarrassed itself by threatening to bar representatives of Israeli universities from its annual convention, only to reverse the decision under the threat of discrimination lawsuits. Its leadership managed to make things even worse by banning Jewish media organizations from the conference, under a press policy one commentator derided as being “as complicated, arbitrary and daunting as getting a press pass for the North Korean Politburo meeting, except that the ASA professes to be a progressive organization devoted to the exchange and dissemination of ideas.”

Strange to criticize a  left wing group for "being 'as complicated, arbitrary and daunting as getting a press pass for the North Korean Politburo meeting'". This is how all leftist organizations always act those of us who have been watching them metastasize into the malignancy that now dominates campus life can't help, but wonder where this concern has been for the last 50 years. a movement led, guided, and fed by Jews for decades is now turning on them as the demographics of both the US & the American Campus have altered. This alteration has been championed by the Jewish academics, bankers, & journalists from the beginning. It seems a little late for buyers remorse.

Here's Professor Gitlin on boycotts:

Boycotts and divestments appeal to ideals of citizenship. Vote with your money. Make perpetrators of injustice pay a price. Raise the stakes so that, when they get their calculating minds around a cost-benefit analysis, they decide the cost is too steep. Often such campaigns are constructive.

They can be constructive, but not always. I wonder why? 

Presently, I’m involved in the alumni wing of Divest Harvard, a student-run campaign to press the university to sell holdings in fossil fuel corporations whose business model is to make civilization untenable by burning carbon and dumping the by-products into the atmosphere. (So, I want to add, is Robert K. Massie.) There are several hundred other university campaigns of this sort, with some colleges, churches, cities, and foundations following suit. The objective is to stigmatize those corporations and to further the development of energy sources that the earth can sustain.

All these movements have been tied to practical objectives, some more radical than others. Their justifications lay in a sheer disproportion of rights. The rights of the Negro passengers and the grape pickers and the Stevens workers and the South African majority were not comparable to the rights of the segregationists or the growers or the South African white minority. In a sense, the fossil fuel movement has more radical ends, since the present movement, if it had divine powers, would put fossil fuel companies out of business altogether. But in none of these cases was or is there a clash of right against right.

So attacking American Companies there is no clash of "right against right." That is no one was being unduly harmed, except greedy white oil drillers (and the families they keep in a middle class lifestyle)  & their corporate masters. However if there are innocent Jews being harmed by the boycott it's time for some analysis of the motives.

Still and all, many supporters of BDS do not understand, or have not thought through, just what they are subscribing to. Consider the 2005 BDS call by Palestinian organizations, which can be read on the official BDS website. It favors “broad boycotts” and “divestment initiatives against Israel similar to those applied to South Africa in the apartheid era.” These measures, the call goes on, “should be maintained until Israel meets its obligation to recognize the Palestinian people’s inalienable right to self-determination and fully complies with the precepts of international law by (with my italics):
1. Ending its occupation and colonization of all Arab lands and dismantling the Wall;
2. Recognizing the fundamental rights of the Arab-Palestinian citizens of Israel to full equality; and
3. Respecting, protecting and promoting the rights of Palestinian refugees to return to their homes and properties as stipulated in U.N. resolution 194.”
Leave aside, for now, that the BDS organizers are highly selective about the international obligations they wish to enforce at the cost of academic freedom. (They have a point when they say that all campaigns are partial and selective, though one might well marvel at their insouciance when it comes to slaughter perpetrated next door by Bashar al-Assad.) Leave aside the sleight of hand with which they claim that their boycott (actually blacklist) targets only Israeli institutions, not individuals.
But consider the slipperiness of the BDS goals. The first statement I have italicized is deliberately vague. Which “Arab lands”? According to Hamas, they include the entirety of Israel. Moreover, the phrase is coded to imply that the very existence of the state of Israel, as recognized in 1948, is what constitutes “colonization.” (If that were not so, it would suffice to say “end the occupation”—meaning the occupation that took place, and continues to take place, as a result of the 1967 war and the Jewish-Israeli settlements that continue, illegally, to expand on the West Bank.) To BDS, the original sin would seem to be the founding of the Israeli state. The language masks (however thinly) the desire of one of the parties to the horrendous Israel-Palestinian conflict that the other one disappear.

Seems that maybe divesting & boycotting has a whole constellation of details that perhaps should be carefully examined before jumping in with both feet. Perhaps BDS is not always the unalloyed good that Professor Gitlin's other examples were. After weighing the good & the bad what is the professor's conclusion.

 But history is always surprising and sometimes pleasantly so. So let me close with some more bad news and then a touch of good news. The bad news is that, in a time of severe fiscal pressures on higher education, of plutocratically enforced inequality, and of relentless, potentially catastrophic climate change, the Doctoral Student Council of the City University of New York took time to consider not a proposal to divest from fossil fuel corporations or a campaign to boost funding but a BDS resolution against… Israel. The good news is that, this past Friday, Oct. 24, the BDS resolution failed.

Well that certainly is good news. It seems that American Jews are going for option four keeping their privilege & their place at the head of the anti-white grievance committee. The only word for that is chutzpah.

Conspiracy Theories are not New

"Conspiracy theories of history are not fashionable. But European history has never known a shortage of conspiratorial societies, conspiracies, or conspirators." Norman Davies Europe a History

The example Mr. Davies uses primarily to prove his point is the League of the Holy Court (Heilige Fehme) set up after the imperial ban placed on Henry the Lion chief of the Guelph party (i.e. pro-pope).

"The Femgerichte (forest courts) followed exact procedures , hearing witnesses for prosecution & defence. But death was their only sentence. The condemned  person was left hanging from a tree into which was stuck a knife bearing the mystical letters SSGG (standing for Stein, Strick, Gras, 'Grun - 'Stone', 'Rope', 'Grass', 'Green')" Norman Davies

The Guelphs officially banned,  this secret court rose to fill the vacuum left by their absence. In time and in certain areas these secret tribunals rose to become recognized. The society eventually recruited the emperor Sigismund into its ranks.

Throughout history from century to century secret societies have had remarkable and decisive influence on the destinies of the people of the west. Secret societies such as the Freemasons and the Sons of Liberty forged a new nation in America. While the IRA formed the backbone of the military struggle for the Irish Republic. The history of the 20th century reveals conspiracy after conspiracy. What would the modern world look like without the Fabians, Haganah, Irgun, Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood, the Bolsheviks, the Fascists, the Black Legion, & of course the Frankfurt School.

History is a creation of men and men must conspire to cooperate so in what way is a conspiracy theory loony on its face. I'm certain that a laughable idea such as the rise of a new Caliphate in 21st century Syria & Iraq would have been ridiculed in the early '90's. We live in a pulp fiction age. An age of world wide conspiracies and counter conspiracies.

Tell me your politics and I'll tell you what conspiracy theories you believe in. All human endeavors are the result of conspiracies.
