We are nearing the climax of a watershed election. The Ruling Class understands that Donald Trump represents a counter-revolution to all they have built up over the last 50 years. That emphatically includes GOP leaders like Speaker Paul Ryan, who hastened not merely to step on Trump’s bounce back in the second debate by announcing he was suspending support, but is signaling he will continue to damage Trump as much as possible [Inside Ryan’s decision to (almost) dump Trump| The speaker might still fully rescind his endorsement before Nov. 8, sources told POLITICO, by Jakee Sherman and John Bresnahan, Politico, October 11, 2016]
This phenomenon has inspired an important essay from Angelo M. Codevilla, a Senior Fellow of the Claremont Institute and emeritus professor of International Relations at Boston University, : After the Republic. [Claremont Review, September 27, 2016]. Codevilla’s basic idea: the cultural revolution of the last 50 years has destroyed America as a constitutional republic. As many on the Alt Right have noted, there is nothing left to conserve. The question now is where our post-republic period will take us. Codevilla [Email him] writes
Because Republicans largely agree with Democrats that they need not take seriously the founders’ Constitution, today’s American regime is now what Max Weber had called the Tsarist regime on the eve of the Revolution: “fake constitutionalism.” Because such fakery is self-discrediting and removes anyone’s obligation to restrain his passions, it is a harbinger of revolution and of imperial power. [Emphasis added]
This is why we see repeated crazy comparisons of Trump to Hitler—most recently,This New York Times ‘Hitler’ review sure reads like a thinly disguised Trump comparison. [By Aaron Blake, Washington Post, September 28, 2016] Despite absolutely no statements from Trump suggesting that he would suspend the Constitution and assume dictatorial powers, the concern is lurking that, like Hitler, he would do just that.
The fundamental reason for this fear among the elites: their guilty conscience. They understand that in the last 50 years they have completely upended the old order in America. They have created a revolution that opposes the most fundamental interests of the historic white American nation. They understand that this election could confirm their revolution—but only if Hillary Clinton wins.
Her victory would mean continued Leftist appointments to the Supreme Court (Codevilla has an excellent summary of the vast changes in “Constitutional Law” imposed by the new regime) and it would mean importing around many millions more non-whites, the great majority uneducated, poor, and dependent and the vast majority of whom will be entirely on board with their revolution.
The top-down nature of this revolution cannot be overemphasized. There was never a demand by a majority, or even close to a majority, from any Western country for a complete transformation, to the point that white people will soon be minorities in societies they had dominated for hundreds and, in the case of Europe, thousands of years. This top-down revolution has never been supported by a majority of white Americans. There is anger, resentment, and fear for the future.
Trump represents an inchoate backlash against this revolution. But we have entered an era where it is too late to simply turn back the clock. The changes have been too drastic. One could change the legal situation with one or two judicious Supreme Court picks. But that will not undo the importation of a new people—tens of millions of non-whites with all that that implies for the future.
As Codevilla notes, because we have entered an era of fake constitutionalism and because the most fundamental interests of the traditional American majority have been r uthlessly suppressed, there is no obligation to restrain one’s passions. The situation is indeed what Codevilla calls “a harbinger of revolution and of imperial power.”
The new Ruling Class realizes that it rules by lawless bureaucratic coercion:
In today’s America, a network of executive, judicial, bureaucratic, and social kinship channels bypasses the sovereignty of citizens. Our imperial regime, already in force, works on a simple principle: the president and the cronies who populate these channels may do whatever they like so long as the bureaucracy obeys and one third plus one of the Senate protects him from impeachment. If you are on the right side of that network, you can make up the rules as you go along, ignore or violate any number of laws, obfuscate or commit perjury about what you are doing (in the unlikely case they put you under oath), and be certain of your peers’ support. These cronies’ shared social and intellectual identity stems from the uniform education they have received in the universities. Because disdain for ordinary Americans is this ruling class’s chief feature, its members can be equally certain that all will join in celebrating each, and in demonizing their respective opponents. [My emphasis
While the traditional America aspired to be and substantially attained a society based on individual merit, the new elite is not a meritocracy (the poster child for this is Elena Kagan), and not just in terms of Affirmative Action and ethnic favoritism in university admissions. The Clintons may be seen as representative of the corruption of this new ruling elite, able to flout laws with impunity. At this writing, Hillary Clinton remains ahead in most national polls and has the support of the entire Establishment, left to right, despite:
- highly credible charges of unprecedented corruption involving hundreds of millions of dollars to the Clinton Foundation from donors, many of them foreign entities, while she was Secretary of State, as well as outrageous speaking fees for Bill Clinton from these same donors (importantly, his speaking fees skyrocketed after Hillary became Secretary of State);
- violation of an agreement between Clinton and the Obama Administration not to accept foreign donations during her tenure as Secretary of State;
- the destruction via BleachBit (a program designed to make the information non-retrievable) of likely incriminating emails after a subpoena,
- being cleared of criminal conduct by the FBI that would have sent ordinary people to prison;
- her staff pleading the Fifth Amendment in Congressional hearings;
- many of her staff receiving immunity deals even there is good reason to think they lied to the FBI;
- an agreement for the FBI to destroy computer owned by Clinton aides, including Cheryl Mills, Clinton’s Chief of Staff, plus looking only at contents between June 1, 2014 and February 1, 2015 and hence ignoring much possibly incriminating evidence.
And in the same vein, Bill Clinton continues to receive adulation in the Main Stream Media and acts as a spokesperson for Hillary, despite a credible history of rape and lying about extramarital relationships which were aggressively covered up by Hillary by lying and intimidating and impugning the reputation of the women involved.
None of this has been enough to derail wall-to-wall Ruling Class support for Hillary Clinton. We have indeed come to the end of America as a constitutional republic governed by the rule of law.
Indeed, Codevilla sees the failed i mpeachment of Bill Clinton a s a harbinger of the end of the republic:
Consider, for example, how republic-killing an event was the ruling class’s support of President Bill Clinton in the wake of his nationally televised perjury. Subsequently, as constituencies of supporters have effectively condoned officials’ abusive, self-serving, and even outright illegal behavior, they have encouraged more and more of it while inuring themselves to it. That is how republics turn into empires from the roots up.
If the Democrats win, Codevilla sees them driving “the transformations that it has already wrought on America to quantitative and qualitative levels that not even its members can imagine.”
They would continue their war on traditional “racist,” “sexist” America with literally nothing to stop them. The
disdain for how other Americans live and think has remained fundamental…. The media reacted to Hillary Clinton’s remark that “half of Trump’s supporters could be put into a ‘basket of deplorables’” as if these sentiments were novel and peculiar to her. In fact, these are unremarkable restatements of our ruling class’s perennial creed.
Exactly.
Thus, despite appearances to the contrary, there is a unified oligarchic Establishment that straddles both the Republican and Democrat parties. This has not been so obvious in previous elections, when Republicans and Democrats were apparently quite different on some issues. However, the rise of Donald Trump has shown that the Establishment is entirely united. For example, billionaires are supporting Hillary Clinton 20–1, whereas in previous elections, they were much more split between the two parties. Not one Fortune 100 CEO is supporting Trump.
The other pillar of the Ruling Class is the media which reflects academic culture and political culture generally. The media, along with academia, and the bureaucracy, have been prime drivers of this top-down revolution, in which the moral and intellectual high ground has been seized by people hostile to the traditional peoples and cultures of the West. This new Ruling Class is completely out of touch with the interests of a majority of its citizens—particularly White Americans. Thus the print media is almost completely in the anti-Trump camp:
The [endorsements] are overwhelmingly against him, and they just keep coming, in language that is notable for its blunt condemnation of the candidate and its “save the Republic’’ tone.
The endorsements are coming not only from the usual mainstream media suspects but also from newspapers that either never before supported a Democrat or had not in many decades—The Dallas Morning News, The Arizona Republic, The Cincinnati Enquirer—or had never endorsed any presidential candidate, like USA Today. The Wall Street Journal has not gone there, at least not yet, but a member of its conservative-leaning editorial board has: Dorothy Rabinowitz, who called Mr. Trump “unfit.”
What’s most striking is the collective sense of alarm they convey—that Mr. Trump is a “dangerous demagogue” (USA Today) whose election would represent a “clear and present danger” (The Washington Post, The Cincinnati Enquirer), or, as The Atlanticeditor Scott Stossel said in an interview Tuesday [October 4, 2016 “a potential national emergency or threat to the Republic.”[The Editorialists Have Spoken; Will Voters Listen?, by Jim Rutenberg, NYT, October 5, 2016 ] [Links in original]
It is ironic indeed that these media people see Trump as threatening the republic when, as Codevilla notes, that republic is already gone as a result of the actions of our new Ruling Class.
Because of this perceived “clear and present danger,” Codevilla argues, from the standpoint of the media, “devotion to truth means not reporting on Donald Trump and people like him as if they or anything they say might be of value.” An important example: Lester Holt, moderator of the first Clinton-Trump debate, skewed questions to favor Clinton, emphasizing perceived Trump’s w
eak points (on his taxes and the so-called birther issue) while completely ignoring Clinton’s blatant financial corruption and other criminal actions.
Similarly, the media in the U.S. and in Europe has been entirely in favor of massive non-white immigration and the never-ending flow of refugees. In both Europe and the U.S., the media has downplayed or ignored crime by immigrants as well as an epidemic of black on white crime. Horrendous crimes by illegal immigrants and recent migrants are treated only as local issues if they are mentioned at all. Unless citizens are reading widely on the internet, they don’t know about these stories.
The MSM environment has been closed off to the message that whites have interests, j ust like everybody else; that identifying as a white person who wants to advance these interests is normal and natural; that race is real; that there are real racial differences in traits important for success in a modern society and that there is no magic wand to change these traits; and finally and most importantly, that immigration and multiculturalism carry huge costs to the historic American nation in terms of social cohesion, social conflict, trust, and willingness to contribute to public goods, like healthcare, welfare, and public infrastructure.
But as Codevilla notes,
Under our ruling class, “truth” has morphed from the reflection of objective reality to whatever has “normative pull”—i.e., to what furthers the ruling class’s agenda, whatever that might be at any given time. That is the meaning of the term “political correctness,” as opposed to factual correctness.”
Truth is whatever you want to make it, just as the Constitution now means whatever the Ruling Class says it means.
While it’s obvious what a Clinton victory would mean, the consequences of a Trump victory are far less certain. Codevilla is pessimistic that there could be real change:
Because it is difficult to imagine a Trump presidency even thinking about something so monumental as replacing an entire ruling elite, much less leading his constituency to accomplishing it, electing Trump is unlikely to result in a forceful turn away from the country’s current direction. Continuing pretty much on the current trajectory under the same class will further fuel revolutionary sentiments in the land all by itself. Inevitable disappointment with Trump is sure to add to them.
But the two great revolutions of the twentieth century—the Bolshevik Revolution and National Socialism—did indeed replace ruling elites. And of course, the fear that a Trump victory would indeed lead to a wholesale replacement of our ruling elite is behind the hysterical opposition that he has received from the entire Establishment.
Codevilla’s conclusion is worth pondering:
We have stepped over the threshold of a revolution. It is difficult to imagine how we might step back, and futile to speculate where it will end. Our ruling class’s malfeasance, combined with insult, brought it about. Donald Trump did not cause it and is by no means its ultimate manifestation. Regardless of who wins in 2016, this revolution’s sentiments will grow in volume and intensity, and are sure to empower politicians likely to make Americans nostalgic for Donald Trump’s moderation. [Emphases added]
Finally, given my research interests, II would be remiss if I did not mention the critical role played by Jews and the organized Jewish community in the changes that are now coming to a head.
There is no question that Jews are a prominent component of our new elite and played a determinative role in passing the watershed 1965 immigration law. I have written five VDARE.com articles on Jewish opposition to Trump, often expressed in terms of Jewish identity, interests in multiculturalism, immigration and refugee policy, and fear of a fascist America.
Given the very powerful position Jews enjoy in the American media (summarized briefly here and more extensively here, pp. xlvi-lvi), they necessarily play a major role in the anti-Trump movement.
Jewish opposition to Trump is virtually unanimous, and in the Republican Party, Jewish neoconservatives are leading the #NeverTrump movement. (One of them, Paul Ryan adviser Dan Senor, is rumored to have leaked the Access Hollywoodtape, although the MSM seems reluctant to ask him). According to 538, in 2012, around 70% of money given by Jews directly to candidates went to Obama, while in 2016, 95% has gone to Clinton. [The GOP’s Jewish Donors Are Abandoning Trump,By Eitan Hersh and Brian Schaffner, September 21, 2016] Jews are vastly overrepresented among the top donors to pro-Clinton PACs, while the Republican Jewish Coalition has not endorsed Trump, with many donors switching to Clinton. Adelson, after investing $93 million in the 2012 campaign for Republicans, including $30 million to a Romney PAC, now says he will donate only $45 million, of which only $5 million will go to Trump, the rest going to House and Senate candidates. [Donald Trump Gains the Support of a Former ‘Never Trump’ Billionaire, by Michal Addady, Fortune.com, September 20, 2016]
Codevilla says frankly that a deep unhappiness with the current political culture is brewing that could ultimately lead to a revolutionary upheaval.
Trump accomplished a hostile takeover of the Republican Party. Can he accomplish a hostile takeover of the presidency in the teeth of unanimous opposition from our hostile elites?

Wikipedia considers Codevilla’s advocacy of Jonathan Pollard’s release to be a “Humanitarian Effort.”
[Use a single Handle or Anonymous/Anon. Otherwise your comments may get trashed.]
I expect internment if Hillary wins.. Many of us will have to fall on our swords and risk imprisonment or worse… I am a grandmother… white, and a professional. I’ve already had the SS to my home twice because of my speech on Obama. His betrayal of voters is much worse than Bush or bubba
So many of us voted for this nice black man who rose above his birth…. his handlers carefully crafted this lie and laugh at us today.
I told the SS to pound sand…. and they left. A vote for Obama was date rape. And I kept my Democratic registration so I could tell them so when they call every few months for money and polling information…. to me he is a FILTHY NGER…. nothing less.
See… I knew Bush and Clinton were monsters…. nobody packaged them for my teary eyed consumption …. for our YES WE CAN .. post racial America.
The Obama betrayal is something I will never EVER forget or forgive. But I don’t want him shot… I want him to die a slow painful death just like Hillary….
Anyone who wants a tutorial on the Parkinson’s symptoms she betrays need only go to
Pretty good, but one thing missing from the equation is that established non-whites have as much to lose as whites from further immigration. Donald or whoever succeeds him needs to get them on board.
Kevin MacDonald brings me down, big time. A leader he ain’t! It’s almost like he’s trying to be as negative as possible…Well, if that’s his goal, all I can say is that he has been hugely successful!
You would think a guy like that – smart as a whip with a Ph.D in Evolutionary Psychology – would be able to figure out a workable strategy for white folks to effectively fight back against the Hostile Jewish Elites. But, nope, not one suggestion from him…not even a hint! Now, I’ll admit that I haven’t read most of Dr. MacDonald’s work (’cause it’s so damned dismal), so I might be wrong about him. But I don’t think so. I think he’s been submerged in this highly negative field of study for so long that it’s destroyed his will to fight…they call that occupational burnout. If that’s the case, he’s useless…and why in THE hell should I listen to anymore of his negative defeatist crap?
I’m all about doing every thing I can to win…’cause I’m a fuckin’ winner! I like to excel and win, it makes me feel good. I hate being around negative people…they’re like psychic vampires; if you let them, they’ll suck the positive energy right out of you!
Can anyone show me a literary work from Dr. Kevin MacDonald that is positive and uplifting? If not, he is nothing but poison…I’ve got no room for his defeatist garbage in my life.
Once again it’s my duty/pleasure to commend Ron Unz for publishing Prof. MacDonald and fulfilling the mandate of The Unz Review for “Interesting , Important, and Controversial Perspectives Largely Excluded from the American Mainstream Media.”
It looks like Codevilla was in bed with Alan Dershowitz and several other plea-bargainers in this “Humanitarian Effort”!
Nice try. Hey, what’s your “workable strategy for white folks to effectively fight back against the Hostile Jewish Elites?”
Outstanding article. Ironically, if Trump fails to win the election and, as MacDonald notes, virtually all of America’s Establishment players succeed in sabotaging his grass-roots rebellion, the Donald’s inchoate revolution will expand. He’s lit a fuse. The (non-elite) White Identity movement is taking form.
And its cause?
The unsought transformation of American culture into a tense, alienated, politically-correct sea of enforced conformity and entrenched double-standards.
E Pluribus Unum is dead.
Thus, even if Killery wins this political battle, a larger conflict awaits.
“I’m all about doing every thing I can to win…’cause I’m a fuckin’ winner! I like to excel and win, it makes me feel good. I hate being around negative people…they’re like psychic vampires; if you let them, they’ll suck the positive energy right out of you!”
You are a jack off loser!
A PhD these days means little or nothing. Nearly any dimwit with a couple of functioning neurons can obtain one.
Also, no intelligent person calls corporate media “mainstream” as this author did at least twice before I quit reading the poorly thought out claims.
Here’s another example of extreme dimwittery…
Constitutional republic? Gimmee a break. No one who knows anything ever suffers under the illusion that the USA was ever a republic, and a “constitutional republic “is almost an absolute contradiction in terms.
And the “revolution” he refers to has never been one; it’s the same old sad state of affairs, i.e., a huge fraud perpetrated by the “elite” on the rest of us.
Trump is not the Messiah but I do like the idea that he’s p***ed off at least a few political blockheads. Beyond that, however, the fraud shall go on. Bank on it.
If it’s uplifting you’re after, I’m sure your local bookstore has a ‘new age’ section.
What bunk–and some believe in this nonsense? Oh well, so be it, but if you do, you live in a very dark world of your own imagination. What a pity.
My strategy is to attack the enemy.
The main objection I had back then (and still have) Clinton’s impeachment, is that they were doing it over the Monica Lewinski affair. Yes, I know! He also perjured himself in the process. But in the greater scheme of things, it was one of Wild Bill’s lesser crimes. Bill Clinton really should have been impeached for violating the US Constitution by attacking Serbia without a declaration of war–or any sort of authorization–from congress. But by then, alas, the Repubs had already played the impeachment card on some lesser crime and gotten on everyone’s nerves in the process.
Gingrich was an idiot.
The only bunk is coming from your pathetic attempt at trolling. Now, please, fuck off and die–yes, in that precise order, dickhead!
Every problem has a simple solution…..sometimes it is radical surgery to remove metastasizing cancerous cells. The turdworldization of america will proceed unabated until the elites are decapitated i.e. the country made judenfrei…..er, jooiefree. No ovens required….deport them to israel……where they could perform their beneficent occult magic on each other and their arab neighbors. Too radical? Can’t live without movie filth, tv idiocy, faggy spectator sports, endless jooie wars, debased jooie fiat money, payday loan ops on every corner, vile afro kultur, endless waves of violent wogs hating on whitey? OK…….then just die the death of a rag doll.
The USA was definitely a constitutional republic prior to the civil war. The industrial revolution destroyed it.
Basically the general public thinks racist/sexist/bigoted etc = bad, anything else good. It doesn’t even matter who the candidates are.
American media has a knack of simplifying things into entertainment soundbytes, and that’s what you end up with.
This is not actually true. Clinton lied on national TV but he was not under oath and not being deposed or testifying then. Thus, no perjury on TV.
Clinton did state under deposition (not on TV) that he didn’t have sex or sexual intercourse with Lewinsky, which, according to the definition agreed upon by Ken Star, was technically true although of course very misleading. Still, no perjury there either.
Preface to the First Paperback Edition The Culture of Critique
Involvement may be unconscious or involve self-deception, but for the most part it was quite easy and straightforward to find evidence for these propositions. If I thought that self-deception was important (as in the case of many Jewish radicals), I provided evidence that in fact they did identify as Jews and were deeply concerned about Jewish issues despite surface appearances to the contrary.
I take dubious, vague and ill-defined amorphous concepts (and likely non-existent) to write myself a blank check.
the scientific weakness of these movements is evidence of their group-strategic function
Lack of empiricism is evidence of Jewish perfidy.
(4.) Try to show how non-Jews responded to these movements—for example, were they a source of anti-Semitism?
I identify Jewish perfidy and show that that Jewish perfidy provokes the innocent to become anti-Semites.
What an amazing, thought-provoking article. And I agree, the Trump campaign is a revolution against the establishment, although Trump seems like a very unlikely champion of the “little guy”.
Conservatives are way ahead of liberals when it comes to distrusting the filthy lying media and acknowledging that the country has been taken over by a hostile, corrupt oligarchy that wants to impose its NWO system on all of us.
Now that Trump knows what’s going on, there’s no excuse for him not to shake the pillars and bring the whole rotten temple crashing -down around him.
Agreed. The constitution died at Appomattox. We are discussing post imperial not post constitutional.
Fine piece. If HRC is elected, I am betting there will be impeachment proceeding or at the least demand within a year. DT seems to be a one man phenom, there appears to be no one near him to follow up, the building of a party.
As a child of the Cold War, it’s downright odd when I see rhetoric such as the latest from Trump being adopted by the Republican Party:
“It’s a global power structure that is responsible for the economic decisions that have robbed our working class, stripped our country of its wealth and put that money into the pockets of a handful of large corporations and political entities.”
This is the language of class war and Marxism. No wonder an Ayn Rand libertarian like Paul Ryan can’t find it in his heart to support Trump.
Two recent tweets (10/14) from two prominent Jews
Norman Ornstein @NormOrnstein My birthday wish: conspiracy of international bankers & globalists holds Trump to 35% and 100 electoral votes. Is that too much to ask?
Laurence Tribe @tribelaw
Not too much to ask, @NormOrnstein. Happy Birthday! May your wish come true. My wish: 32% and 90 electoral votes. Only crushing defeat works
Paulette Ryan a libertarian??? Better described as the bag “man” for the welfare state…..unlimited deficit funding of every jooie war, every giveaway program, every minority scam…..and so righteous, religious, and morally superior to all the lesser beings that inhabit the former republic. Maybe we can rent Duterte for four years to clean up the commie mess…….
Yup. Trump is now the voice of the common man, while the Democrats are the party of Wall Street. Quite a role-reversal, isn’t it!
The butcher Lincoln destroyed the constitutional republic with his unconstitutional war.
If H.R. Clinton ‘wins’ (which can only occur by vote fraud), don’t fall on your sword . . . pick it up and start using it against enemies foreign and domestic.
White nationalists are going to be having good long cry in a few weeks. That cry is eventually coming even if Trump gets elected. He doesn’t care about you. He’s racist, sure, but not YOUR kind of racist.
The other thing that really pisses me off is convicting Al Capone for tax evasion. Just can’t get over that one.
It seems likely that the pillar-shaking will only ensue if Trump loses and especially if he loses in the presence of evidence of cheating. The elite reaction to him seems sub-rational to me at this point: they would be better off if he won and they cut a deal with him. He isn’t going to turn down a deal.
Exactly. If you ask a libertarian, in the abstract, what he thinks of unions, he says he has no problem with them since they are voluntary associations. If you ask him about any particular ongoing strike, he always finds some reason, in this particular case, to be on the side of management. The less self-aware among them will even admit to being against unions generally because, you see, all that government intervention means they aren’t *really* voluntary. That the company also benefits from various government interventions doesn’t come up, or, if it does, he says something idiotic like “I’m against that, too.”
Similarly, the libertarian will happily admit, in the abstract, that he is in favor of capitalism, not capitalists. He will happily admit, in the abstract, that capitalists are very often the enemy of capitalism, that they often seek to subvert the government and use it as a tool for their own interest. But, then, amazingly, in every particular case we get to hear about how criticism of actual, particular, identifiable capitalists engaged in actual, particular, identifiable conspiracies to use government power to enrich themselves is “the language of class war and Marxism.”
Damn. Conspiracy theorists are pre-cogs now?
Take over a wildlife refuge. Worked well last time.
He’s right about that. Trump will get far more than 90 or 100 EVs, and these Jews’ dreams will go down to crushing defeat.
If Trump is defeated in this election, it won’t “work,” because it won’t be a crushing defeat.
In fact, Trump has already dealt a crushing defeat to the media. Exposed their power as quite limited. They’ve been running their version of carpet bombing against Trump for a year now, and he’s still within the margin of error in the polls.
Ewps.
The Left has been boiling the frog for a long time. It seems the jolting advent of Trump was necessary for the frog to notice his worsening position and identify the cook. But, it may well be too late. This animal was dumb enough to land in the pot, then too dumb to notice the rising heat or the patent insanity of the cook–for decades. As to that cook: he believes on nothing but pure faith that the frog introduced evil into the world and all its woes, so that killing the frog will create utopia. This is likely to end badly for both sides.
Young (usually male) minds are very susceptible to the simplistic abstraction of libertarian ideology. Inculcating young minds with it is the sole purpose of libertarianism. Joining libertarian discussion groups is like joining Konsomol in USSR. The end product are young simpletons ready to defend capitalist system in any discussions and confrontations just like Hunweibins were defending Mao’s China. What puzzles me are the old libertarian farts like Ron Paul or Fred Reed.
MacDonald is a historical determinist of sorts. From what I’ve read in his CoftC series, he thinks that when Jewish subversion reaches its peak, “natives” will explode with anger & somehow overthrow it. I have two objections to this theory:
1) I don’t believe that Jewish subversion is crucial re matters he’s discussing (immigration inundation, denigration of Euro-American civilization, dumbing down through media, support of Israel, ..). Influential yes, but dominant- no.
2) his is, in my opinion, magical thinking. The two revolutions he has described had been brewing, ideologically & structurally, for years, even decades. No overthrow of power elites had ever come “just like that”, without long and arduous theoretical, ideological, economic, ethical,… ferment & planning.
The two essential men of this movement are Kevin MacDonald and Donald Trump: The great scholar and thinker, and the man of action. I was delighted to see recently that Donald Trump Jr. has retweeted Prof MacDonald:
http://dailycaller.com/2016/08/30/donald-trump-jr-retweets-prominent-alt-right-psychology-professor-kevin-macdonald/
I would not be at all surprised to find out that Trump Sr. is very conversant with MacDonald’s work.
In my experience, committed libertarians usually have some single quirk of personality that expresses itself in at least one socially disapproved behavior (i.e., recreational drug use) that they defend by use of the libertarian ideology. It now seems that marijuana will be decriminalized, and gay marriage has already been written into the Constitution, so I think libertarian ideology is quickly running out of those hooks with which they win converts.
“ferment & planning” and lots of money. The objective of each revolution is taking power by a subgroup of insiders. The “peasants” that cary out the revolution are just a tool. Once the revolution succeeds the subgroup proceeds to subjugate the “peasants” in more ingenious way.
great column, kevin, except for your usual nonsense about jews
Can anyone show me a literary work from Dr. Kevin MacDonald that is positive and uplifting?
In the face of truth – when the truth is undeniable, the messenger is always always attacked.
p.s. Hmm – a ZZ (Zionist Zombie) maybe? By deceit and deception they make war – it is what they were taught as children by their culture. (Poor things – abused and traumatized, made to fear and hate at five.)
Although European peoples are less prone to ethnocentrism
How many wars and bodies do you have to step over in order to write something like this?

History shows Jews being a problem for every native population that doesn’t oppress them (c.f. Iran). Sometimes this results in a backlash against Jews, including expulsion from nearly every country in Europe, at some point.
It’s not exactly a stretch to speculate that the pattern may continue in the future. Jews certainly have held up their end of the bargain.
Melville’s Battle Pieces affirms that the iron dome of the Union was strengthened at the expense of the Dream of the Founders. It’s s good point but we can go beyond that to the deprivation of the Articles of Confederation displaced by the centralizing tendencies if the Constitution and the Marshall Supreme Court.
Yes, I’m sure if Trump is elected, we’ll all have a good long cry about not having the decrepit globalist whore as president. Good call.
What would Prof MacDonald do without DaJooz! DaJooz! He’d have nothing without them, eh?
Quite possibly MacDonald agrees with (1), because he has spoken about the Puritan ethos morphing into an indigenous elite’s culture of critique via Transcendentalism without any help from Jews.
Re (2), The Nazis did not replace ruling elites, Germany being run by an efficient civil service, went on much as before with virtually no call on Hitler’s time (Albert Speer said he often wondered when Hitler actually worked). The Bolsheviks would never have succeeded without the Tsarist state’s defeats in the war against Germany (just as the loss to Japan led to the 1905 revolution).
Hard times make hard people. Foreign policy is always the most important factor for a state, and the objective is always security. Germany suffered defeat in one war, where it ended up fighting the rest of the world, and was surrounded by the same enemies plus a frighteningly quickly developing Soviet state, and kept helpless by international treaties when it decided an initiative was necessary to break out, no matter what sacrifices were required. Germany has just had a revolution completely out of the blue due to Merkel, who perceived that force having failed twice, Germany needed hegemonic soft power. Merkel is, like Hitler, trying to establish total security from attack, and both are using a racial method. Merkel is practicing an ideological disarmament of Germany’s natural rivals.
The US is not under external threat, so a consensus for a revolution is not at all likely.
Kevin McDonald’s racism has no boundaries. He hates Muslims, Jews, and non-White immigrants – but is not ashamed of influenced by Jewish intellectuals.
I wonder if he knows that Claremont Institute founders were students of late professor Harry Victor Jaffa, who was born to a Polish Jewish immigrant parents.
McDonald is one of the eleven American intellectuals ADL warned US presidential candidates to avoid in February 2016. He shared the honor with Afro-American Minister Louis Farrakhan.

I don’t know about Fred Reed. Ron Paul seems to make a living off of various goldbug type scams. Check out the crazies in the zerohedge comment section, for example. There is a whole weird subculture around libertarianism and some (though not a ton of) money to be made fleecing the loonies.
Libertarian events are seriously depressing things. The only sane people at them are the organizers, various think-tankers (i.e. the speakers), and the goldbug people running their scams. The rest range from the autistic to the profoundly mentally ill. And a few dentists who want their taxes cut.
Well,
Jews are whites. Most Jews I had met were whites, except some in the media, that look Arabs. Whites cannot fight them because its like a virus, you cannot fight a virus, because a cell, part of the body. Besides, whites do have better things to do, like work, take care of their families. Talmudists do not; they enjoy life in litigations, as lawyers, bankers, and united by the hate for others not like them. Not all Talmudists obviously are alike. But they all have the same deep inward feeling for the synagogue. Talmudists in the MSM only serve to maintain the public ignorant and feed it with lots of perversion and lies. To a minority say, Hispanic/Asian, a Talmudist is simple a ‘white’ person talking head. They have not been attuned to the fact that Talmudism is a group/tribe itself dedicated to the destitution of everyone else who is not part of the tribe.
So, whites, its up to the whites to fight the good fight, and stop been scared with the name calling of ‘racist, bigot, etc. Let the mud slide down, and press on.
You think this is all not part of a plan.
This is about Zionist Jews destroying the West.
You think George Soros cares about black lives, that’s why he supports BLM?
The media, Wall Street, Hollywood, all tools to destroy America.
Here is a great example, new movie out that exemplifies the Zionist desire to destroy America with division.
https://www.thenation.com/article/the-birth-of-a-nation-is-an-epic-fail/
Above was a great book, but Zionist Jew Hollywood turned it into a weapon of hate and division. They use the media for the same thing. This is much bigger than the election, this is a process that has been in the works for decades.
Bill Clinton sowed much of the seeds of our destruction now:
NAFTA & CAFTA
Welfare reform that promoted single parent homes
He destroyed removed Glass Steagall
And he his telecommunications legislation he allowed for the consolidation of the media. Watch news before 1996 and after you will note a major change once the consolidation got under way.
He introduced triangulation and identity politics to America and made it “acceptable”.
He also signed the Defense of Marriage Act, for those of you who like to make this about gay rights.
This is all about dividing the American people, playing on hate and bigotry…so if you give in to these ills, America gets exactly what it deserves.
MacDonald will stop telling the truth about hate mongering Jews when hate mongering Jews stop lying about Euro whites.
And Albert Speer, who certainly would have known … IF the scam was factual, never mentioned the impossible ’6M Jews & gas chambers’.
The ’6M Jews, 5M others, & gas chambers’ are scientifically impossible frauds.

Supremacist Jews have been marketing the ’6,000,000′ lie since at least 1869:
How could you say Jews are not in control, they have Hollywood, MSM, Wall Street, Congress, what else is there?
America focuses on enemies of Jews, NOT OF AMERICANS.
Behind Kiev, it was Zionist Jews, behind Syria, Iraq, Iran…
Most ignorant statement I have read in a while, I thought I was done with such stupidity when I left Huffington Post.
You ever hear of the $39,000,000,000.00 gift to Israel?
I note the column has a great deal of insight into Jewish hate for America and Trump, yet in your detraction, you just call it “nonsense” without one shred of evidence.
Jews are by far the most organized and financially powerful “racial” group in America.
As someone who works in Washington I see their hand in just about every filthy movement, though usually working behind the scenes.
Israel is not our friend or our ally, yet we shower them with money, and protect them at the cost of our nation and its morality.
It is quite typical for your ignorant ilk to dismiss truth with insults, as you can’t actually formulate a reasoned response.
Behind most evil in the world you will often find the Tribe working, pulling the strings.
What – no ADL – no AIPAC – no Jew MSM – Really.
Trump’s immigration stance is attacked by all the media except for a very few at FoxJews. The same thing in congress.
The Zionombies want people who dislike Euro people to immigrate into America – end of story.
“I expect internment if Hillary wins.”

“I would be remiss if I did not mention the critical role played by Jews and the organized Jewish community in the changes that are now coming to a head.”
Yes, the Jews are to blame for everything. Keep playing the victim card.
“The Ruling Class understands that Donald Trump represents a counter-revolution to all they have built up over the last 50 years.”
There will only be a counter-revolution if his acolytes continue with his message. Praytell, sir, what are YOU doing besides blogging to facilitate this revolution?
“This is why we see repeated crazy comparisons of Trump to Hitler—most recently…”
Just as crazy as saying that whites are becoming extinct. Or Jews rule the world. Or race differences are primarily the result of biology, not a combination of nature-nurture.
“This new Ruling Class is completely out of touch with the interests of a majority of its citizens—particularly White Americans”
White Americans make up this “ruling class”. Many citizens, including whites, have supported their efforts. How is acting in their own racial interests as they see fit”anti-white”?
Seamus Paidrag…
“Trump is now the voice of the common man,”
No, Trump is a Wall Streeter who is only speaking to the “common man” as a showman.
I realize this is hopeless, but Trump’s trusted adviser Stephen Miller is Jewish, as are most of his business associates. Not to mention son-in-law.
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen an article with so many typos. One or two is ok, but there are a lot here, ones that spellcheck will pick up.
@everyone…
Thanks, guy’s, for all your responses.
I’m guessing no one could find a positive article written by ol’ MacDonald…I’m not surprised; like I said, he’s been too close to it for too long. His judgement has suffered as a result.
If Dr. MacDonald’s strategy is to wait for white people to get fed up with Jewish criminality, and then suddenly rise up to overthrow them, he’s in for a rude awakening! It’s not going to be that way, Kevin MacDonald should know that…’cause he’s a Ph.D psychologist! People have to be motivated, both negatively and positively; he is completely focused on the negative motivation angle…and that would be Ok, if some other writer were around to counterbalance his negative approach with a positive approach to this material. Unfortunately, I’m not aware of any white nationalist motivational speakers! They’re all Negative Nellies, as far as I’ve been able to tell.
That’s why I like the Prepper Movement…the community is very positive, and highly motivated. Politically minded people are – God bless’em – 98% talk, and 2% action. Preppers are the exact opposite…we’re all about taking preemptive action to survive, come what may. If Kevin MacDonald were a Prepper he’d be my Hero! If any of you want to get into prepping let me know, I’d be happy to help you.
Another person I really like is Lasha Darkmoon…I like her writings, and I’ve learned quite a lot from her. She’s not as negative as MacDonald, and she’s easy to read. Do you guys have a favorite white author/blogger?
So, what could Dr. Kevin MacDonald do to turn things around? For starters, I think he needs to take a vacation, get away from researching the mean, nasty Jews for a while. Then, I think he needs to have a pow wow with his inner circle, the topic being: How to attract more women into the movement! This is crucial, in my opinion…not nearly enough young white women in the movement. At some point Dr. MacDonald should take a serious look at self-improvement techniques (Self-Hypnosis/Autogenic Training, development of the Will, Witness Meditation, etc.) and incorporate his findings into his work…he would be far more useful if he were to do that. He could start by looking at all the available R.E.S.T. research on sensory deprivation and behavior modification. He should use his Ph.D to work out a program of self-development for the white nationalist community…and himself.
Sensory depravation + Self-Hypnosis + Lysergic acid diethylamide = Super White Nationalists!
If something doesn’t change pretty darn soon we may be facing our forced extinction…in light of that, is Dr. MacDonald really doing all he can to help the white nationalist movement? In my opinion, the answer is no, he’s not.
Wow! I’ve never seen so many strawman arguments in just two paragraphs.
THANK YOU!
It is the epitome of arrogance that Jews think they are beyond criticism, they claim control of most everything, but when ANYONE questions their actions, it to “Anti-Semite” BS. The “Jews are just a part of the bigger picture”. It is all shit, they are the picture, they control the media, Hollywood, entertainment, you name it, and with that control the manipulate and divide our nation right down the middle.
This is a new Hollywood movie, the divisive little fucks never sleep.
https://www.thenation.com/article/the-birth-of-a-nation-is-an-epic-fail/
The gentleman commenting on this picture questions why the director made it so violent, white men raping women, but he misses the point, this IS what Hollywood wants, whites to hate blacks, and visa versa.
Many Jews are commenting here.
Lol.
YOU HAVE TO GO BACK.
Does Mr. Smith know it all – does he know history – is he trying to kill off Mr. MacDonald?
In the year 33 the Pharisees knew it all – they were so right, that they had someone killed – in the year 100 they were no longer existent – hmm.
Angelo M. Codevilla is the author of many an excellent book (if I had to mention one it would be that on Switzerland’s role in WWII and the rewriting of history) I advise everybody to read.
You let your hopes and preferences skew your vision, MacDonald.
Consider a treatise as masterly as The Fate of Empires, then explain the role of Jews in the disappearance of the Greek civilization and, later, the Roman.
Our civilization has expired. Why? Because civilizations expire, lest they are culturally drowsy and immune to the disease of the “why”, like the Chinese.
If one can’t come to terms with that, perhaps they can provide their fixation with a new object that serves it better than “Jews”?
Still, you could look it from the other way round.
I am sure you use Amazon, Google and YouTube a lot.
They are bringing on serious progress.
And there are reasons to think there’d be no Amazon, Google and YouTube and much else without Jewish skills.
Do you know of John Von Neumann’s contribution to computer sciences?
Harold Bloom’s to literary criticism? Bernard Lewis’ to the history of the Middle East?
Do you see how Bloom is held in contempt by the non-deplorable in the intelligentsia? As for Bernard Lewis, aside from some out-and-out Zionists who misrepresent his work (the way Nazis misrepresented Nietzsche’s), he is ignored.
If anti-White Jews and Jewish supremacists earn the eminence they do in Western societies is because their attitudes suit the masochistic wishes of their racism’s objects.
See with what pleasure Whites get lambasted by Muslims, Blacks, Indians, Hispanics, East-Asians tigresses, … they love the whip when it lands on their ethnic identity, culture and tradition.
It’s an addiction some called “cupio dissolvi”. So pervasive it is, that in the absence of foreign whippers they self-strike.
We are in a society that raises to the altars whomever spites it and lends a hand deconstructing it.
If you are against tearing White culture away you get vilified and despised and at the very best overlooked, no matter your ethnicity and race.
Or have you heard of Walter E. Williams from the NYT or Huffington Post?
Atheism and moral relativism, that is amorality, are triumphant as well, and an object of worship for some.

Can the comment this is a reply to be removed? I think it should, unless you publish such outbursts for their documentary significance.

This time we get a mentions of ovens, if only to say there’s no need for any, and the whole comment is unbearable in tone.
As a firm anti-Zionist, this “judenfree comment” managed to offend me.
You wrote every opinion would be published but decency would be enforced. Please do it, it’s a need of this site I think.
http://www.theoccidentalobserver.net is a daily read for me. There are few website that offer such an educational experience.
I’m proud to support Dr. MacDonald’s work including donations as I could only imagine the undue pressures applied by his adversaries. Look at the comments here for instance. Look at what happened to him professionally. It’s disgusting.
I encourage Dr. MacDonald not to take any vacations that may lead him to fall victim to the foolish drivel that these people expect humans to believe.
KICK THEM OUT NOW!!! And confiscate the wealth that they have stolen from this great nation!
Re (2), The Nazis did not replace ruling elites, Germany being run by an efficient civil service,
The Nazis made wholesale replacement of civil servants, which in any case does have much to do with ruling elites. The Nazis left the capitalist and aristocratic elites in place which is why we have entities like ThyssenKrupp today.
These people are no libertarians or conservatives or liberal, they cling to power, revere the ruling elite of the day or century, and that’s all they want to do.
Romantics name them as “traitors”.
[…] (20161015): from The Unz Review comes a a nice review and commentary of Codevilla’s “After the Republic” […]
This is a crazy post, Art! lol…you want a do-over? I’ll give you a do-over.
Maybe it’s not so difficult to change a ruling elite. A Republican President could decide by executive order to set up a military investigation using the Patriot Act/Homeland Security, with the power to arrest and interrogate everyone connected to 9/11, before, during and after (including the FBI) and see the truth drop out, relating to who did what, with consequent government (not MSM) publicity and trials.
This would send a massive shock wave through the Establishment and probably change everything.
You agreed Bardon’s idea that a lot of policy wonking will be necessary, I disagree. Contemplating one’s navel doesn’t alter anything, we all go on living and a change in context determines if and when we see things in a different light. Things (people , countries, consensuses) have internal consistency and alter though interaction with other entities. Interaction usually amounts to conflict, and a win is no motive to change.
Like Russia, Germany was effectively defeated in WW2. There was a youth bulge in Germany in the twenties, and when the Nazis came to power there was turnover in personnel due to the great emphasis on youth, with mayors in their twenties being appointed. How an Austrian came to run Germany with the acquiescence of the German establishment cannot be understood without taking WW1 into account. Germany had been left helpless. Hitler wanted to make it unassailable.
The US will have face up to a defeat or serious threat to its dominance before the current received wisdom is overthrown. If China’s trajectory succeeds in giving the US the idea it is going to be supplanted as the world’s number one power, then there will be some changes.
get over it trollosky. from a firm anti-zionist, nsa’s remark doesn’t offend.
Good grief! Is this your first time at Unz.com? You seem unused to free speech–way too many ‘triggers’ here for you! Maybe you should just take your SJW non-sense an mosey along to some other, more PC website.
The irony of the situation is that the label ‘libertarian’ in 19th cent. Europe was typically used by anarcho-syndicalists (‘libertarian socialists’), who proposed a stateless society run entirely by co-operating labor unions (‘syndicates’). In mid-20th cent. America, Murray Rothbard–who was very familiar with the anarcho-syndicalists’ arguments against the state–introduced the term into US political discourse with its present, slightly different meaning. Years later, he abandoned the use of the term entirely and started referring to himself as an ‘anarcho-capitalist’ instead. The Koch Bros., who totally dominate modern-day US libertarianism and are mostly interested in deregulating industries they already own, couldn’t stand Rothbard and fired him from the CATO Institute in the 80s, and have conspired ever since to airbrush him out of libertarian history and theory. Consequently, not many younger libertarians even know where their name comes from.
Ron Unz, noting that Cesar Chavez was anti-immigration, has proposed a compromise such as you suggest. While economically speaking, recent immigrants do indeed have the most to lose from further immigration, as they become a sizable diaspora community their rational economic interests become overborne by ethnic loyalty (or maybe it is better called realism). The way Chavez’s movement steadily lost influence is an case in point.
There’s a lot of truth to that, utu. That certainly described me back when I was in my libertarian phase. It was more than 20 years ago, but I was a naïve young person who was given to abstract thinking and theorizing. I was looking for the one, magic-bullet, reductionistic ‘theory of everything’ that would explain away all the world’s problems. Had I been born in earlier era, I would certainly have been a Marxist; but by the time I was born, the vast majority of the Marxists had already abandoned economics, class theory and critique of the state for Frankfurt School cultural bolshevism, which was obviously anti-white and anti-male. I couldn’t very well be against myself, now could I!
Exactly, Art. When the truth is unpleasant, a lot of people are destined feel an overpowering urge to ignore–or even shoot–the messenger.
Incidentally, when propaganda works, as it often does, the reason is very simple: it is more pleasant, comforting or flattering than the hard, cold reality that usually confronts us. The vast majority of the people will therefore always be easy to fool … at least until the whole shitbag blows up and leaves them no choice but to acknowledge their error and start over.
No overthrow of power elites had ever come “just like that”, without long and arduous theoretical, ideological, economic, ethical,… ferment & planning.
He left out a necessary condition and that is some sort of fracture within the elite classes.
There is no organized opposition to the elites, at least not in the US.
I know I don’t have to explain what happens when disparate and unorganized individuals go up against the elites. There is not a fraction of organized opposition to the elites that existed in the 60′s and we know how that turned out.
That’s a good point. If billionaires oppose the Republican candidate by 20-1 and all Fortune 100 CEO’s oppose him + the whole off the MSM and Academia, but he’s still level with Hillary in the polls, then the minorities among Hillary’s supporters are not thinking straight.
120.000 families (0,1%) now have the same wealth as the lower 90% of the US population and they got it through 30 years of outsourcing US jobs, mass illegal immigration wage pressure, special interest overpricing and Fed directed QE to their friends on Wall St., all harming established non-white minorities as much a white Americans, if not more. America First is just what established non-whites need, as the Republican candidate has said on many occasions.
The elite are a necessary part of any country, and the elites are at least as likely to decide for change requiring sacrifices from them as ordinary people are. The German elite acquiesced in his elevation to Chancellor, though Hitler only gained a third of the popular vote in the last free election. In the same way, the rule of the Tzar was overthrown by widespread dissatisfaction with his failure to defend the country. I don’t think elites are the limiting factor in change, they’ll switch as fast as the rest of society, if they see a need. The US elite was concerned with the ideological Cold War and their biggest problem in exerting US influence was that they were being portrayed as fascist racists by the Soviets. US elites wa foreign policy problem, and hence went with forging a soft power dominance. So they tried to integrate American society; to show the Third World that the US was better than the Soviet Union.
Maybe you should read up on what a strawman argument is? Of course, that would require learning to read, first.
It’s amazing to watch US Jewry. After their expulsion from Central and Eastern Europe they were given shelter, a home and opportunity in the West, particularly in the United States, which at that time was more than 90% white, from a mostly Anglo-European background.
They could have integrated and become Americans from a Jewish background living a good and successful life in their new country, but instead, used across the board racial patronage to promote their own race at the expense of others, and dominate industries and institutions like the FED and the Treasury (exploiting them for their own benefit rather than the other 97% of the US population).
Also they launched a series of False Flag attacks against Britain and the US (King David Hotel bombing, Lavon Affair, USS Liberty and WTC Pentagon 9/11 aimed at tricking the US into attacking Arab states surrounding Israel + Iran. So far they have involved the US in attacks on Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and Syria at a cost of $ 5 trillion, and civilian deaths reaching into the millions, and seriously tried to get the US to destroy Egypt (USS Liberty) and Iran (9/11).
And now, almost unbelievably, all their academic, media and political resources are directed at attacking and demeaning US Anglo culture on all fronts (Constitution, religion, sexuality, morality, immigration, race and every kind of white-guilt they can invent).
Can anyone explain the psychology of these Ashkenazi nut cases?
Those “other Americans” are the white working and middle classes whom they hate. You don’t see them attacking non-whites and their racial interests and in fact they promote them at the expense of white ones. Codevilla’s articles are generally quite good but he purposely overlooks the racial overtones and aspects of the political trends he writes about.
There is nothing left to conserve. Conservatives don’t seem to realize that there’s been a revolution and that they lost and badly. Their only victory has been staving off challenges to the second amendment but even on that their resistance seems to be flagging. Most will eventually flip in favor of “sensible gun laws” in order to ingratiate themselves with their growing third world constituencies.
Even if Trump manages to win racially conscious and non-masochistic whites can’t get complacent and delude themselves into thinking America works again. We need to think long term as Trump’s presidency will only be a brief interlude to the permanent revolution and demographic warfare being waged upon us.
Yes, you are giving us a do-over of your antics, Priss Factor.
AMC’s predictions seem pretty spot on:
https://www.bostonglobe.com/news/politics/2016/10/15/donald-trump-warnings-conspiracy-rig-election-are-stoking-anger-among-his-followers/LcCY6e0QOcfH8VdeK9UdsM/story.html
There may be some action if/when Trump loses.
If, God forbid, Trump loses, he should not recede into obscurity, because he will be completely destroyed for daring to challenge the Matrix. He should go on and pour his energy into establishing a viable third party. He can rally massive numbers of people to the cause. But if he simply fades away, he and his family will be crucified.
Although demographics predict continued white decline for a long time to come, whites need their own political party to champion their interests.
As soon as you said ‘antics’ the first thing that came to my mind was the time when I was chasing your mother through your house with her underwear on my head! HAHAHA! Fun times!
This is why Christians must be made to suffer…and suffer they will!
Ah, so I guess all criticism of a globalist minded, increasingly smaller, increasingly richer, and increasingly anti-white/anti traditional American ruling class can be comfortably dismissed as regressive Marxist talk? Thanks for clearing that up; I thought the dissapearing American middle class was a problem for a moment; further (it’s embarrassng to admit) I even thought that it maybe had something to do with our elected government tirelessly placing the interests of ultrarich oligarchs above our own. Assuming you’re that daft and just not trollng, though, do you really want to mention libertarianism (yeah, more free trade and wide open borders is EXACTLY the prescription for what ails us) and Ayn Rand, as if either were to cuckservative Paul Ryann’s, or anyone’s, credit? For God’s sake, drop your copy of Atlas Shrugged, that faux- profound teen psuedophilosphical jerkoff material, and pick up a book of history or real philsophy. And then pick up another. And another. You get the idea.
Yes, Kevin MacDonald can explain it, and has done so persuasively over the course of three books and many shorter pieces. I am really glad to see Mr. Unz publishng his artlcle here, and I highly recommend you check out more of MacDonald’s work.
Your comment, while interesting, offers two analogies–Tsarist Russia and 1930s Germay–that do not quite match the present situation in the U.S. and the West more generally. In your historical examples, the elite were ethnically (and broadly speaking) culturally the same as the populatons over which they ruled, and neither the Russian nor German elite had a strong or competing loyalty toward a second country. That can not be claimed for a large segment (from 1/4 to 1/2, depending on whose numbers you believe) of the modern American (((elite))), who definitely have a consciousness of themselves as a people who are distinct from the general populace, and who harbor a fierce fondness for a scrappy little Middle Eastern ethnostate which–purely a coincidence, I’m sure–seems to have an extraordinary influence on our foreign policy.
Thanks for clearing that up; I thought the dissapearing American middle class was a problem for a moment; further (it’s embarrassng to admit) I even thought that it maybe had something to do with our elected government tirelessly placing the interests of ultrarich oligarchs above our own.
Yes, and I am certain that if we magically replaced the ((( wrong kind))) of oligarchs with the right kind, happy days would be here again and eternally so. I am sure the right kind of oligarchs would never place their interests above our own. You are the one that needs to read a bit more.
As the authority of sacred tradition waned, secular philosophical movements would take their place and battle each other for control of the state—an instrument of centralized control that was itself a creation of modern philosophy. Hume wrote: “no party, in the present age, can well support itself without a philosophical or speculative system of principles annexed to its political or practical one.”
Hume distinguished between parties of interest (for example, agricultural versus commercial), affection (loyalty to one’s people or a ruling family), and those of philosophical theory. The last were a uniquely modern phenomenon: “Parties from principle, especially abstract speculative principle, are known only to modern times, and are, perhaps, the most extraordinary and unaccountable phenomenon, that has appeared in human affairs.” Here was the first identification of that cacophony of ideologies and “isms” that would disorder modern political discourse.
”Back when US Jews hardly mattered at all, the US had already proclaimed itself the worlds first universalist nation: “founded on a proposition”. The US won’t let Israel expell the Palestinians and in act the pressure is begining to mount on Israel.
Clinton has quite openly said there has to be an end to Israel as it exists today. http://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/clinton-palestinian-state-achieved-through-negotiations-is-inevitable-1.330001
Israel gets money and high tech weaponry from America, but the hyper-subtle America foreign policy establishments are just giving them enough rope; US funding of the west Bank settlements was probably done with the idea of making a Jewish state unworkable in the long term. the long term fate of an Israel with Arabs in the West Bank being denied full rights is going to be much as apartheid South Africa’s was. The established US policy toward Israel means it will not be able to delay giving up the West Bank for very much longer. yet the Settler’s lobby is too strong now. Ehud Barak understood this, which is why he offered the Palestinians more than he had to.
American Jews will face the prospect of being seen as supporters of an explicitly Apartheid state. Mearshiemer has predicted all this, just as he foresaw the Russian attack on Ukraine twenty years before the event.
Actually, Russian elite before 1917 was disproportionally of German origin (Baltic Germans recruited by Peter the Great), with names like Vitte, Benkendorf, etc. The Czar’s ancestry was also in large part western, and he was married to a German princess. That explains the burning hatred for them after Russian Army was proven incapable of winning anything in Russo-Japanese War and World War I. Treason was suspected. 1917 revolution was in essense al de-westernization and Russification of Russia, fuleled by the sense that the elites had become too globalized and unpatriotic.
The parallels with the USA – while not perfect – are very valid.
All true, and there was widespread support for the elections to the Constituent Assembly arranged by the Provisional Government. In the event the vote (November 1917) was Social Revolutionaries 20,893,743 and Bolsheviks 9,023,963 out of a total of 36,257,960 votes.
The point is that the Bolsheviks lost, but by this time Lenin was already attacking government buildings, filling the assembly hall with armed revolutionaries, arresting the Constitutional Democrats and launching his Terror.
The parallel and difference is that Lenin introduced a Jewish revolutionary elite while the USA already has one.
But there is more to be said
Revolutions , Glorious or not, call up abstract principles, but very down to earth realism is almost always being served.
Anyway, the Czarina was the one seen as the sinister pro German who was causing Russian defeats, just as Marie Antoinette was seen as pro Austrian. And it might be mentioned that
In both the Nazi and Bolshevik cases of revolution the audit of war had found an established system deficient. Revolution was seen as making the country more efficient against it’s enemies. Like the Czar, Kerensky’s catastrophic military misjudgments in prosecuting the war against Russia’s opponents in WW1 was what lost him the support of the nation. It would be going too going too far to call Jews the elite. They are an important component of the elite, and not without influence, but as De Maistre found, the intelligentsia in all countries tend to engage in what has been called “rationalism in politics”. Jews don’t have any objectives out of line with the intellectual heirs of Puritanism, as seen in Trancendentalism. A revolution in the US will have to wait for the US losing its global dominance.
In these questions I see it more as US and THEM:
One religion vs another (e.g. Middle Ages – Islam vs Christendom )
On tribe against another (Most of the Middle East – e.g. Assad dominating Syria with his Alawites or Saddam Hussein dominating Iraq with his Tikritis)
One race against another (e.g. Germans vs Slavs in WW2)
One class against another – maybe only when the upper class is highly economically advantaged and loses contact socially with the rest of society – in fact almost a different race (e.g. the French aristocracy and Louis XVI).
The fact is that most wars have been between one race and another (sometimes with a religious or “ism” angle). Hitler was fully on board with the Classical view of power (e.g. Roman governors annually launching military expeditions to extend the Empire with new territories and tribute) and, like he said, “According to the laws of nature, the soil belongs to he who conquers it. The fact of having children who want to live, the fact that our people is bursting out of its cramped frontiers – these justify all of our claims to the Eastern spaces.”
The Bolshevik coup fits easily into this format. A tribal group (Jews) were the leaders of a coup working with an “ism” and exploiting opposition to a highly advantaged and disconnected aristocracy. On gaining absolute power they placed tribal members in key positions of power NKVD (director Genrik Yagoda and deputy Yakov Agranov both Jewish), the Gulag (heads all Jewish: Aron Solts, Yakov Rappoport, Lazar Kogan, Matvei Berman and Naftaly Frenkel ) and the organized Ukrainian death famine – winter of 1932-33 ( Lazar Kaganovich), plus most of the Gulag camp commanders and they organized the largest slaughter of Christian Europeans that the world has ever seen.
Also they formed their own Jewish “revolutionary” upper class, taking over newly vacant aristocratic homes and dachas and having their own Pushkin evenings (check Slezkine’s adulatory book, https://www.amazon.com/Jewish-Century-Yuri-Slezkine/dp/0691127603/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1476737976&sr=8-1&keywords=the+jewish+century ).
I don’t agree that a revolution in the US will have to wait for the US to lose its global dominance. The North Carolina GOP office was recently firebombed which was a very dangerous thing to do. If someone gets killed, the whole thing could easily descend into a spiral of sectarian violence.
Now that’s what I call a positive and uplifting comment.
What has the winning Smith contributed by way of practical recommendations or is Smith the kind of man who waits passively for others to lead him to safety?
The selection of the charge was so ridiculous as to guarantee the effort would be a media circus and the stuff of late-night TV. It was as though the fix was in – go with the ludicrous.
I still think Starr threw the fight.
Boris is heard from.
[…] MacDonald, he of Culture of Critique fame, had a few words to say about the Trump Revolution, nationalism, and Angelo Codevilla’s essay on the death of America […]
The US elite has enough diversity that it isn’t Syria where things are clearly along ethnic lines. And something you need to think about is that even in Syria the Assad regime still has many Sunni officers fighting for them, because those officers are well taken care of. http://carnegieendowment.org/2015/11/03/assad-s-officer-ghetto-why-syrian-army-remains-loyal-pub-61449
The US establishment is not demoralized or discredited enough for a revolution. The US is still the worlds number one, and members of the US elite have many privileges, not the least of which is feeling they are persons of consequence in the most advanced country on earth. You think they will give up their entire identity to throw in their and their family’s lot with the masses, and live like them? Many of the those of the ethnic majority who serve the system’s degradation of the ethnic majority are from relatively humble origins, proud of attaining position and elite respect, and quite contemptuous of common folk, seen as aesthetically unpleasing failures.
I’ve learned that you can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink. All the information that I’ve imparted to people on this site is definitely specialized knowledge, but it’s all freely available on the interwebs. However, it’s beyond my ability to get people interested in what I do…I’m not a people person, and not a very good writer, so it’s tough for me to motivate people.
As far as waiting for some special person to become president, I lost hope in that long ago…I decided years ago to take action on my own. So, I do the Prepper/Survivalist thing, and do some other things to hurt the enemy.
I’ve got a beef with ol’ MacDonald (a couple of them actually)…first, he needs to stop with the doom and gloom crap, especially when there are so many things that can be done to fight back…they aren’t always legal, but hey, we’re in the fight of our lives here! Second, this crap about the Ashkenazi Jews being a separate (thus special) race – God’s chosen people – is a bunch of BS! So why does he defend it…when any fool can see that it is enormously helpful to them? I’m beginning to think MacDonald is a Shabbos Goy hang-around!
That’s all I have to say about that.
ethnic majority who serve the system’s degradation of the ethnic majority are from relatively humble origins, proud of attaining position and elite respect, and quite contemptuous of common folk
You are full of shit.
Wow, Just Wow!
Beck – Wow
FED much, Agent Smith!?!?
Agent Smith – Thank you
You poor fellow…they’ve got you so mentally fucked up you can’t tell friend from foe! You see federal agents everywhere, in every comment that dares to speak about some action, or another. You’re suffering from the effects of their propaganda…unfortunately, once you let it into your mind, it’s there for the duration. I’ve seen this kind of paranoia on the interwebs a lot since I’ve been back online…it manifests as a pathological fear of breaking the rules. They (the actual Feds) plant these don’t-break-the-rules-or-you’ll-get-into-trouble memes to effectively shut down any discussion of any kind of action…these memes effectively neuter people like you, which renders you useless to yourselves, and those around you.
Now, before you work yourself into a tizzy, I can assure you that there are thousands of Negros on other sites talking about “killin’ whitey” in every imaginable way…no Feds are coming for them.
So, RELAX…take a deep breath and chill!
ps…In your mind, how does the first highlighted statement tie in with the second?
That’s true enough, there are thousands of Anglo journalists writing SJW propaganda aimed at ethnic Anglos, Anglo FBI agents engaged in collecting and destroying 9/11 evidence and Anglo Congressmen who knowingly sell out the US when they vote $Billions of aid to Israel. The problem is that any personal stand would 1) be futile and 2) end their careers.
Higher up the tree, 40% of US billionaires are Jewish, which means that 60% aren’t, yet only one out of the top 20 billionaires supports the Republican Candidate = plenty of Gentile billionaires who are onboard with the Establishment – probably because they made their fortunes the same way as the Jewish billionaires and care most about their corporate profits. For example, Andy Grove (ex CEO of Intel) stated that Apple creates 10 jobs in China for every 1 on the U.S. and that this is standard for U.S. hi-tech industries under outsourcing. Given the margins on iPhones they could easily be manufactured by legal US labour and sold at the same price, but billionaire Jobs always opted for extra (massive) profits for management and owners (himself).
Jews are fully aware that they own the US. The MSM is in their hands, they run all the major film studios, the top positions in the FED and the Treasury are all Jewish and AIPAC dictates how Congress votes. In fact they are a new aristocracy. The media may talk about Diversity in hiring but the message never reached the American Jewish patronage system that has been fast tracking Jews to top positions in US society for the last 50 years.
And,it’s not the first time in history that a country has had an ethnic minority aristocracy, but they usually get them through military conquest (e.g. the Romans or British throughout their respective Empires) rather than internal patronage/selection (although Jews successfully ran the same system in pre WW2 Germany). The net effect is that the USA is a colony of Israel, in the same way that India was a colony of Great Britain, transferring its wealth to the Home Country and sending troops to fight its wars. Co-operative Indian princes were welcomed into the Imperial system as honorary British gentlemen in the same way that co-operative Gentiles (Bush & Clinton) are welcomed into the Jewish elite.
The big problem, from their point of view, is the incompatibility of Democracy with Autocracy. Both Republicans and Democrats have to be laboriously subverted/bought/blackmailed to give the public a facade of Democracy since they wouldn’t appreciate the reality that a non-Christian, non-European ethnic minority that is 2% of the population is ruling the U.S. , and the problem is compounded by the Digital Age where information about, for instance, the USS Liberty and 9/11, that could have reasonably been expected to stay hidden, spreads around uncontrollably.
But probably worst of all, a Republican Presidential candidate has appeared from completely outside the system talking about the national (i.e. non-Jewish) interest, and exposing the Establishment, with their continuous hysterical attacks, for the totalitarian project that it really is. Metaphorically speaking, the predators have lost their cover, so their only option now, is to run down their prey – and go for absolute power in the US in the same way as their Bolshevik brothers did in Russia in 1917.
It’s useful to keep in mind what General Aleksandr Lebed said about the Russian Jewish Oligarchs: “They have always regarded ordinary people as garbage; the stones at the foot of the pyramid”
So, according to you, Professor MacDonald, the Alt Right (which he is a key member of) et al., have been highly ineffectual, because the Occidental Observer website published an article on the Jo Cox murder, which went viral, and significantly influenced the BREXIT referendum http://www.theoccidentalobserver.net/2016/06/the-selective-compassion-of-jo-cox/ , Professor MacDonald was retweeted by Donald Trump Jr. http://dailycaller.com/2016/08/30/donald-trump-jr-retweets-prominent-alt-right-psychology-professor-kevin-macdonald/ , and he was mentioned on the official Hillary Clinton website as a major backer of Donald Trump ( I cannot find this page right now; maybe it was deleted because associating Donald Trump with the Alt Right and Professor MacDonald was deemed highly ineffectual by the Clinton camp, since the Alt Right have been so effectual in supplying the Trump camp with talking points, that resonate with the historic American people and electorate? Hillary Clinton’s ‘alt-Right’ smear will backfire http://www.cnbc.com/2016/08/30/hillary-clintons-alt-right-smear-will-backfire-commentary.html)!?
Ridiculous.
This was the most ridiculous passage of your reply:
I wonder why that is…
The Alawites in Syria are pretty blatantly a minority welding absolute power over Sunnis, yet they still command the allegiance of enough Sunnis to officer a significant part of an army that is killing only Sunnis. Serving the elite always pays off.
I don’t have the time to look into what you’ve said about the Brexit vote…I’ll have to take your word for it. BTW, where are they on the Brexit…every thing moving along nicely? I don’t have a lot of free time so I’m never up on current events.
The Alt-Right…that’s the organization that’s headed by that flamboyant homosexual, right? How’s that working out? I don’t have anything against homosexuals, mind you…I just can’t fathom how a man can take another man’s penis into his mouth, possibly after it’s been in his rectum. That’s a yuck-factor off the charts!
So, ol’ MacDonald is an important part of the Alt-Right, eh? I can’t see how that matters since there are no political solutions to our problems. America can achieve freedom in one of two ways; First, the American people rise up in bloody Revolution, and take the government back that way, or; secondly, elements within the military/industrial complex stage a lightning-strike coup that decapitates the enemy (seizing control of the White House, Congress, the MSM, and the financial apparatus). Other than that, there is no hope for a free America…ever!
Just out of curiosity, why would the massively powerful oligarchs of the NWO tolerate Donald Trump messing around with a plan that has been in the making for over 235 years? Given the fact that they have poured trillions of $$$ into this multigenerational effort, wouldn’t they just blast a chunk of his skull off and be done with it?
How will your personal plans change if HRC is elected POTUS?
How will your personal plans change if HRC is elected POTUS?
No change of plan or message either way. Arguably, the Alt Right will become more influential with a Clinton victory. Not holding my breath.

“Doom and gloom crap” is hardly a fair characterization of Prof. MacDonald’s work. He is a learned man. If you don’t agree with him, just move on. No need to resort to simplistic dismissal.
You’re a prepper? Fine. More power to you and it’s certainly a wise thing to do.
Each of you does something useful for himself and/or other people.
Assad’s government is objectively superior to many Arab nations. There’s more to Sunni support than merely serving the elite.
Assad the elder trod carefully so he did keep living standards high, but his son made a catastophic error of judgement by removing social protection, and an unstoppable popular uprising started. Having been brought up in an Alawite-Assad regime bubble Bashar took power believing all this crap that people on here are still saying about his family dictatorship being supported by the majority of the population.
Yeah, they’re getting handsomely paid.
YOU ;are being very naive.i have followed this cabal called the rothchild zionist israeli agenda since ben gurion was pm .that was 1955.and the so called influence is actually the total way we live our lives what you and every american doesn t hafve a clue on is its total enslavement by financial means .do you have a mortage.car payment ,education to pay for,credit card debt ,medical bills and or high ins payments.car ins, disability ins .you get the point.thats why they have you chasing your tail over social matter such as was referred to in the article and as if trump is going to change it.no way no one will.and yes also!!! the rothchild agenda does have an army of non jews in their bought and paid for army.
Understood.
People make different contributions. Prof. MacDonald accurately describes a major problem for traditional white America and has taken a lot of heat for it. And, yes, it’s depressing that people who were welcomed as immigrants turned out to be so ardent about poisonous progressive politics, aka subversion. And thwy had lots of company sad to say.
However, people who point out the problem are just as valuable as people who like to solve problems. Shining a light was an enormous contribution by itself.
I just read that the Gulf states at one point were paying the al-Qaida scum $40M a month.
Too, the outbreak of “unrest” in 2011 was contrived and soon “aggrieved” Syrians were joined by tens of thousands of foreign head choppers. Idlib province today has 10-20,000 Turkustani fighters. Norwegian special forces just crossed from Iraq to join US and UK troops in al-Tanf. US intervention proceeds at warp speed. $1B a year to the opposition from the US. http://www.globalresearch.ca/the-war-on-syria-exposing-media-distortions/5591247
I think it’s you who doesn’t understand the Syrian disaster that the US, NATO countries, Qatar and Terrorism Central caused. Assad is very popular.
