BASICS: THE MELTING POT MENTALITY OF TODAY SHALL PASS | nationalsalvation.net

I am always bothered when someone says, "The only hope we have" or the like. When someone says something like that, I get the feeling they are simply in another world. Our "only hope" of WHAT?

The survival of our race is dependent on a biological revolution, on Russian nuclear potential, on a hundred things in political actions and reactions and the biological revolution we have no idea about.

A popular news magazine lately had quoted an editorial about how Americans do not understand that identity is serious business in this world. It was not specifically about race, but the emphasis in the article was that Americans expect that Iraqis, for example, will forget their little mullahs and so forth and think like melting pot Americans. Americans cannot understand the Russo-Georgia problem for the same reason.

It said that American foreign policy is fatally flawed because it cannot understand that what a melting-pot mentality sees as mere details, ethnic identity, is what other people DIE for.

It was such a simple devastating observation I thought it came from ME!

It bothers me when WE get provincial. Let the3 paid commentators talk about "the only hope" in some limited sense. This kind of limited thinking is all right for the robots who get paid to see the world in terms the average clown has been trained to think in, but it is not even excusable for a member of BUGS.

I find today's history books boring because they always obsess on proving that any character they are talking about was thinking in today's terms, in terms of Political Correctness, in terms of the Modern Truth. What is fascinating about history is that the people were thinking in entirely DIFFERENT terms, "no one is really talking about history. They are discussing other people's PRESENT DAY," and 1815 was as much a "present day" as 2008 is. So when a writer is trying to squeeze other people's present from the year 1800 into a modern Marxist or "conservative" frame of thinking, they miss all the adventure, all the mind-bending fun of putting themselves in that past that is "a foreign country."

Those who get paid for bending things that way miss the fascination of realizing that they, who see "reality" as what is going on right now, are actually just one more phase, one more part of the parade that keeps marching on.

It is actually funny to watch people in each age think that everything was leading to THEM It is puzzling to think that, after all those hundreds of "inevitables" and Modern Thinkings that we see in history, THIS ONE can think It is where everybody was headed, that IT represents Modern Thought. If there is one thing anybody who is acquainted with history knows that there is no magic to the word, "This is 1896" or "This is 2008." That is exactly like saying, "This is New York" or "This is FRANCE!" It is provincialism, not identity, but REAL provincialism.

There is no SINGLE battle TODAY. It is really true that "This too shall pass." The idea that something would upset the order of post-Napoleonic Royalist Europe was as alien in its day as the idea that anything will somehow "defeat" the melting pot mentality of today.

But the fact that it EXISTS means it is dated.

"Our only hope" means that you honestly think you know what will MATTER in a decade or two.

History says you don't.

Race is eternal. The "Year of Their Lord 2008" means no more than "This is the 1960s," which once meant EVERYTHING to a whole generation.

We know a precious few truths. For some reason, white places are consistently good. White "civilizations" do not go into the commode of history. Your manic depression and mine does not affect reality.

Tell the truth. Fight the fight. This sounds idealistic, but it is really the only approach that is not so silly it is hilarious.

BASICS: THEY DESTROYED HITLER'S RACISM | nationalsalvation.net

Getting a good and effective translation of the Mantra is hard. So I understand it very well when you said that you worked on that thing for a very long time.

Comment by Adelheim

ME:

You hit on it perfectly. In fact, the only shortcoming is the extent of the understatement you cannot help.

I was raised as a child among the Masturbation Generation. I was taught endlessly that "Power comes from the battle of a GUN!" and that the only people who determine history are the Tough Guys Who Give the Ultimate Sacrifice at the Front. Then, as I STUDIED history, one truth almost knocked me over:

No war hero has ever made the slightest difference in world history!

By the time the chest-thumpers of today dropped their rifles on Omaha Beach, the outcome of World War II had been determined in propaganda and diplomatic war waged a decade before.

That's the way I worked in the Cold War.

By Normandy, the future had been determined by people in coats and ties, most of whom never heard a shot fired and most of whom had never done a day of any other kind of work in their entire lives.

While Americans were following the Invasion on their maps in the US, the coats and ties were deep into formulating the post-War world. When I got invitations to Reagan's inauguration, which I had been instrumental in causing, I gave the tickets away. I left watching History In The Making to others, while I went back to my typewriter and telephone and made it.

That job, the Reagan win was DONE. I left the torchlight parade marchers fighting each other for credit.

Did the suits that made the history ten years before Normandy CLAIM credit? Of course not.

The Masturbation Generation says IT saved the world, and the pros want them to believe that. That Generation became the cadre that fought for whites to doom themselves because they had destroyed Hitler's Racism.

At least the media persuaded them that that was what it was all about.

Most of those who determined the War before half the American soldiers dropped their weapons at Omaha Beach were doing complicated, NOT SECRET things that BECAME secret a decade later.

Most of the goofballs who call themselves The Greatest Generation would have switched sides in politics today if they realized how they were manipulated.

It was right there in the record, but were they going to read it? They didn't want anybody to show them they were idiots.

They wanted the John Birch Society and the Jewish Conspiratorialists to tell them Dark and Ingenious Forces had betrayed them. They did NOT want to realize they were the mindless dolts they were.

Even if the REAL "secrets" were exposed, most of the goofballs wouldn't understand them.

To a man my age that has exercised POWER, the old clown screaming that Mao, Hitler, Lenin or Al Jolsen said that, "Power comes from the barrel of a gun!!!" is as embarrassing as a man the same age that keeps shouting about the Easter Bunny being real.

I can explain the fact that the Mantra is the product of FIFTY YEARS of constantly trying and rewriting with the following quote from music teachers:

"When a musician just sits down and plays wonderfully without the slightest sign that it is difficult, there is blood on the keys."

He has worked for YEARS to make it look easy.

Writers have the same saying. Montague said in his Essays, "If I had had more time, I would have written LESS." Even in his day, hundreds of years back, writers knew that routinely.

Anybody can write an hour-long speech. But Ashbrook discovered to his delight that I could write one-minute speech, which can be dropped right into the Congressional Record, at the beginning of proceedings, without costing the Member any of his precious Floor Time. A lot of the one-minute speeches took longer than the long ones.

And the one-minute speeches were read FIRST.

Which is what fools people about the Mantra. It cost me as much time and WORK as writing and re-writing one of my books. THAT is the sort of knowledge that gave me REAL POWER. That is the sort of WORK that pays in terms of actual power.

WE ALL LIVE IN SOWETO NOW | 2000-09-02

Most of us have heard of a butler called "Jeeves." The inventor of Jeeves was P.G. Wodehouse.

In his first book after World War II, called "The Return of Jeeves," the wise English butler is quoted as saying, "We live in the age of the welfare state, sir. This means, as nearly as I can tell, that everyone is destitute."

Right after World War II, in order to make everyone equal, Britain's new socialist Government had imposed confiscatory taxes, rationing, and regulations to the point where nobody had anything. It was called a welfare state. It was also called Austerity. And boy, was it ever austere!

So while America had a post war boom, the British managed to make themselves miserable, all in the name of Equality.

The United States Constitution assigns the United States Government the role of pursuing "the general welfare." Not only is this not the same thing as "equality," it is very often the opposite.

Austerity was one example of how equality and the general welfare conflict. Another is South Africa today. In South Africa today, every honest person is worse off, in every measurable category, than he was under white rule.

There is real genocide going on in Africa today. That real genocide is taking place under the name Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, or AIDS. The old apartheid Afrikaners would have come down on this epidemic in a mercilessly Politically Incorrect way. They would have imposed testing and isolated HIV-positive people in a way that would have outraged civil libertarians and saved millions of lives.

But instead of being treated as politically immature subjects, black Africans are being made equal. And, as in the rest of Africa, they are dying like flies. In the AIDS emergency, what is being pursued is not the general welfare, but equality. No one cares what happens to real people as long as Holy Equality is the announced goal.

In the 1950s, I used to read about high rates of illegitimacy and dope addiction. But back then, this was called a "Negro" and a "Puerto Rican" problem.

Things are "better" now. We are more equal.

By "better," I do not mean that the rate of illegitimacy and drug addiction among blacks and Puerto Ricans is down. In fact, both rates have skyrocketed. Things are better now in this sense: the white rate of drug addiction and illegitimacy is now what the black rate was in the 1950s. There's more of it for everybody, but it's more equal because now it's general.

"Progressive" forces used to point to the black township of Soweto to show what was wrong with the old white-ruled South Africa. The crime rate was enormous, and poverty was rampant in Soweto.

But things are better now. The crime rate is now higher in Soweto, and there is certainly no less poverty. Quite the opposite is true. Crime, poverty, and disease were bad but getting better under the old regime. Now they're worse and getting even worse, and there is no prospect that the new downward trend will ever change.

But that doesn't matter, because everything is now worse for whites, too. The crime rate is unbelievable in white areas, even compared to American ghettoes! South Africa's currency, the rand, was at a quarter of the old value the last time I looked.

The old "safe" areas no longer exist. To paraphrase Jeeves, "South Africa lives in the age of Equality. This means that EVERYBODY is destitute, and living in terror."

SIEGECRAFT: DELEGATION | nationalsalvation.net

Everybody understands an angry young man. Nobody has any use for an angry OLD man. You never get over anger, but tantrums and nastiness in an old man makes one a bit ill, while one expects some outbursts in a newer model.

As one gets older, one begins to really understand what one commenter said here "once and for all," man's activities are just as much a part of nature as a bird's. The distinction between artificial and natural is useful in our language, but now it has become little but an advertisement for guilt.

As one gets more mature, one empathizes that complaining about human nature is exactly as logical as complaining about gravity. You don't have tantrums about gravity above the age of three. You learn to overcome it and you learn to use it. But an engineer who sat around bitching about gravity the way preachers and social scientists bitch about human nature would promptly get his strait jacket.

We allow people to cry about gravity until maybe age three. With young people we allow it into the twenties. After that, we begin to wish there were a better supply of strait jackets.

My methods of delegation got enormous RESULTS. But they are not the key to success, least of all inside the Beltway. I get the best people here. My operating system is out of sight professional. I had two people in DC offer to work for me for the same reason: The best people LOVE to be handed a job with full responsibility by a boss who knows he would screw it up at least as much as they do.

The best want to run with it, not to be checking every comma with the Boss. But they are working hard, and they expect their boss to do the same. They want him available when THEY need a checkout, because the checks back with HQ are few and important.

Which leads me back to anger management? I got the best people, I got stupendous results, and very few people wanted to hire me. When I got past the anger, I began to realize that this was WHY my methods were so EFFECTIVE. No one else was doing what I did!

So I was upset that no one else was doing what I did, which was why I had power. Which meant I was bitching about the reason I had power. That's Step One.

Step 2 is that you are bitching about GRAVITY. Your boss got his promotions in a system where NOBODY did what I did. If Ashbrook had been the average boss, he would have been a Senator. Instead, the REPUBLICAN Ohio legislature tried to redistrict him out of office three times by adding Democratic areas to his district and taking out his base vote. Not only did he overcome this, but also his last electoral percentage was 73%.

But John was known as "the loose cannon." He would not kiss up, he did what he thought was right, to an astonishing degree. He was on his way to the Senate when he "died."

So my methods of delegation WORK, but they are NOT a key to occupational success.
