DEALING WITH THE NAZI LABEL | 1998-10-31

Nobody dares call a liberal a "Communist" anymore. But Southern Nationalists are going to be called Nazis all the time. This is because respectable conservatives and Southern Crawlers are weenies. Whereas no liberal allows himself or any other leftist to be associated with totalitarians or mass murderers like Stalin, Southern Crawlers and respectable conservatives routinely allow leftists to use the label on rightists.

The reason Stalin was evil was not because of his economic ideas. He was a totalitarian and a mass murderer. Likewise, it was not Hitler's racial ideology that made him a Nazi. It was his dictatorship and his mass murder. But whereas liberals do not allow people to accuse leftists of being Communists because of their economic ideas, they know, and insist, that it is the means, not the ends, that make the difference.

Respectable conservatives and Southern Crawlers care about nothing but pleasing leftists. They are happy to agree that all nationalists and all racists are Nazis. Jefferson was a Nazi, sure! The segregated United States Army that invaded Normandy was Nazi, sure!

Do not allow anybody to do this to you.

And do NOT allow them to subject you to any kind of an ideological test to prove you are not a racist. The minute you give them the right to approve of your views on nation and race, you have lost. The entire issue here is not your aims, but the fact that they are accusing you of advocating violent revolution, dictatorship, and mass murder, and you will not stand for it. Point out immediately that they are saying that Jefferson was a Nazi, that all those who wrote the Constitution were Nazis, because all of them opposed racial intermarriage. This is outrageous. Nazism, like Communism, is a matter of means, not of ends. All socialists are not Communists, and all nationalists, nor even most racists, are Nazis. KEEP ON TOPIC! If they accuse you of being a racist, say that is a code word for "Nazi," which it is. Keep them on the defensive. Until we do this, the Nazi Scare will keep us as impotent as respectable conservatives and Southern Creeps.

The Nazi Scare is one of two standard attacks all nationalists have to deal with. The other, which is related, is the argument that no separate countries should be allowed because they might not treat their own minorities right. Respectable conservatives and Southern Crawlers allow the leftists and centralizers to use these tactics without challenge.

Respectable conservatives and Southern Crawlers are the best friends tyranny has.

ANSWER TO DEREK | 2005-11-22

I did NOT say that those who are interested in abstract ideas do not have a life.

I said that those who look forward to an old-fashioned societal collapse are usually the ones who have no lives.

In fact, what I said was that we need to package our ideas, not wait around for a collapse or obsess over Iraq.

I get tired every time what I say is taken personally. Mostly I was making fun of me.

DAVE | 2007-12-22

McCain and Kennedy are very old men to be emblematic of the world circa 2008 and their careers since 1981 could not be more ironic.

1981 was a banner year for reasons the "body politic" of today is entirely blind. No one today even remembers or knows how deeply America was mired in the quicksand's of urban unemployment all throughout the rural to urban migrations that ran in earnest from the 1920s through the mid-1960s.

That is what makes 1981 a banner year. There was 16-year lag between 1981 and the mid-1960s but the end of 1981 finally adjusted things. It was a dividing line between societies in which jobs became chronically plentiful and one where jobs were chronically scarce.

But today this fact is entirely ignored. Lightweights such as McCain and Kennedy (and the Bushes) never could have persisted in their prominence were it not for a prosperity that they bear no responsibility for. Their reign is only fortuitous. They themselves are completely ignorant of what lightweights they really are.

Oddly, I don't think the Clinton's are ignorant of it. Maybe it is their Arkansas background.

But I think that the whole thing is changing again. 2008 will be a banner year like 1981. It is not that I think that we are headed back into the quicksands of high unemployment. It is almost more onerous.

State and local governments have nowhere to go for their financing except to higher taxes. They have played the booms for all they are worth, and now this is over. State and local governments are no different than private corporations. Their bond capacity is limited, unlike the Feds.

But all of America cannot sustain NYC or Nassau County tax levels. The white populations will rebel and this has already started. At heart, this is racial conflict because state and local taxes heavily grab white savings to redistribute to nonwhite populations in devious ways.

The state and local police and judges are not up to suppressing this rebellion. Without Federal backup, they will chicken out, if it starts in earnest. I predict Federal backup will not be forthcoming. This is not the 1960s.

Both Kennedy and McCain are in their dotage. They don't have a clue, and they certainly are not up to navigating this. This is way too "South American" for them.

HAPPY HO-BEATING DAYS? | 2005-01-15

The drive to wipe out the name of Christmas because of its Christian origins has become so obvious that some Jews were mentioning it in the media. Even a few respectable conservatives were allowed a mild protest. "Happy Holidays" is the mantra of the PC crowd. Of course, everyone is expected to give Hanukkah equal billing with Christmas. Hanukkah was historically a minor Jewish holiday, but because they wanted "equal time" with Christians, it has been inflated all out of proportion.

Kwanzaa is completely ridiculous, but that doesn't prevent it from being shoved down our throats.

But what about Martin Luther King Day? Is there any move afoot to tone it down for those who might be offended, as Jews and Blacks supposedly are by Christmas? Or to allow those of "other faiths" to choose their own holiday?

How about "Great Leaders Day" where everyone can celebrate great leaders of their own people? So Southerners could go back to their Lee - Jackson celebrations.

Right.
