From Vox:
How democracies die, explained
The problems in American democracy run far deeper than Trump.
By Ezra [email protected] Feb 2, 2018, 8:10am EST… Making our present moment yet more combustible is a deep transformation of our political coalitions:
The nonwhite share of the Democratic vote rose from 7 percent in the 1950s to 44 percent in 2012. Republican voters, by contrast, were still nearly 90 percent white into the 2000s. So as the Democrats have increasingly become a party of ethnic minorities, the Republican Party has remained almost entirely a party of whites.
And it doesn’t stop there:
As the political scientist Alan Abramowitz points out, in the 1950s, married white Christians were the overwhelming majority — nearly 80 percent — of American voters, divided more or less equally between the two parties. By the 2000s, married white Christians constituted barely 40 percent of the electorate, and they were now concentrated in the Republican Party. …
If the definition of “real Americans” is restricted to those who are native-born, English-speaking, white, and Christian, then it is easy to see how “real Americans” may view themselves as declining. As Ann Coulter chillingly put it, “The American electorate isn’t moving to the left — it’s shrinking.” The perception among many Tea Party Republicans that their America is disappearing helps us understand the appeal of such slogans as “Take Our Country Back” or “Make America Great Again.” The danger of such appeals is that casting Democrats as not real Americans is a frontal assault on mutual toleration.
Whereas importing foreign ringers to vote Democratic is the epitome of All-American fair play. Similarly, ginning up Hate Whitey campaigns to hold your coalition of the fringes together is something George Washington would have approved of.
“ in the 1950s, married white Christians were the overwhelming majority”
Thank God those terrible days are behind us. Worse than the Dark Ages! /s
Pretty amazing. Erza got through that article bashing Poland only once in passing.

In 2012 Rebecca Sommer founded the refugee aid association Arbeitsgruppe Flucht + Menschen-Rechte (AG F+M) [Working Group Asylum + Human Rights]. At the end of 2015, this artist, photographer and journalist and documentary maker applauded Angela Merkel’s decision to open Germany’s borders to the “refugees” who had been blocked in Hungary.
”I thought their medieval view was going to change with time…but after having seen these situations occur repeatedly and observing what was happening around me, as a volunteer, I have had to recognise that the Muslim refugees have grown up with values that are totally different, they have undergone brainwashing from childhood on and are indoctrinated by Islam and absolutely do not intend to adopt our values. Worse, they regard we infidels with disdain and arrogance.”
She thinks it is already too late for Germany and she plans to emigrate to Poland.
The comments uniformly say, “Poland, keep her out, make her stay in Germany and atone for her stupidity.”
It’s okay to be great.
I believe our nation is less democratic than it was 50 years ago.
The reasons can be summed up in one word:
Money
These days our elected officials tend to spend more of their time raising money from big money donors than actually doing their jobs. Any wonder that the big money donors get taken care of far more than the common folk?
The Citizens United case, the end of the McCain – Feingold law, and the end of the practice of presidential candidates taking their fall funding from public monies have all led to an increase in oligarchical tendencies for our nation.
I will often give this test to supporters of any elected official (most often the governor of my state, Wisconsin): Can you think of even ONE time when (name elected official) has gone against the wishes of his big money donors?
For most politicians, the answer is either no, or else a case where some big money donors are helped while others are hurt. To be fair, while I have used this the most with Scott Walker, one could point out plenty of Democrats (*cough* *Joe Biden* *cough*) to whom this applies.
Democrats are literally framing those who don’t agree with them or vote the right way as moral defectives, traitors, and Nazis.
Sure, atomization gets you a long way, but the inversion of the societal immune system is the death blow:
http://www.unz.org/Pub/OccidentalQuarterly-2002q2-00009-- Kevin MacDonald
316 or 317 blacks were living on Washington’s estate when he died. Does anyone have the number of whites there at the time? Probably not 318.

Mutual tolerance! Talk about chutzpah. We tolerated people like (((Ezra))) for generations, and we finally figured out that there was never anything mutual about it.
All Whites ever wanted was to live and let live, and fake Americans have never accepted those terms.
Import enough people and/or control the narrative and the proposition changes.
The Democrats should renounce the term “American.” It is a vestige of white European male dominance. It is derived from the first name of white European male Amerigo Vespucci.
Only solution:
More Immigration!
Who could have seen that coming?
The danger of such appeals is that casting Democrats as not real Americans is a frontal assault on mutual toleration.
“Mutual toleration”. That’s a good one. Like, when a bunch of people break into your house and start squatting, that’s “mutual toleration” to Klein. And me complaining about it means I’m not being tolerant.
Making our present moment yet more combustible is a deep transformation of our political coalitions:
Well, maybe you should have thought about that before you brought all these people here to destroy America.
But you didn’t, so what do you want me to do about it?
Steve:
At what point does the world start realizing that the Ezra Kleins, Matt Yglesias’s and Chris Hayes’s of the world are still barely 30? Their Millennial opinions aren’t validated by life experience yet (A 30 year old Millennial is like a 20 year old Baby Boomer in terms of real life experience).
Why do we even give these kids any serious forum to spew their nonsense?
... and a 30 year old Millennial is like a 13 year old member of the Silent Generation.

“It’s too late for Germany”: German feminist SJW admits she got it wrong on immigration, plans to emigrate to Poland
Mein Fuhrer, I can into Polen!
You left out the most interesting part of vox’s article, steve…
“The simple fact of the matter is that the world has never built a multiethnic democracy in which no particular ethnic group is in the majority and where political equality, social equality and economies that empower all have been achieved.”
In other words, if america must be multiethnic, it cannot be a free, prosperous democracy.
It seems that our moral and political “betters” see affirmative action based socialistic despotism as America’s invevitable future.
So they admit its an impossible goal, but we should still try for it to sooth their egos?
RE: Poland, America take note:

As Ann Coulter chillingly put it, “The American electorate isn’t moving to the left — it’s shrinking.”
Oh, that’s a good line. Really, it is.
Yes, and along with this is the claim that the “reasonable” and “moderate” Republicans are “bipartisan” when in fact the only reason the left-leaning media claims to respect them (today at least–remember how scary they painted McCain in 2008?) is that they would happily give the Dems everything they want on immigration. Not bipartisan, just partisan.
In the 1950′s the voting age was 21 and many states still had poll taxes and literacy tests. Ex-cons, drifters and vagrants were not encouraged to vote by either party except maybe in Chicago. The whole electoral system was geared to married white voters.
I wouldn’t restrict the franchise to property owners or the well to do. I’m not an oligarch, I don’t think virtue is limited to the well off.
Restricting it to veterans or people who’ve served a term of public service may be too great a sacrifice, or corrode those institutions.
At the minimum though, if you want to vote in the USA, I think you should have to pass the same tests that naturalized citizens are supposed to pass. Or at least used to.
No vote unless you can pass a test showing full comprehension of written English, along with an informed knowledge of US history, the operation of the three branches of government etc.
To Ezra, “democracy” means the parceling out of resources to identity-conscious constituencies after stoking their grievances, particularly at the expense of white Christian English Speakers. Anything that reinforces this system is “democratic.” It’s the proverbial two foxes and a chicken voting as to what (or whom) will be dinner. Thus, the secret police Federalizing a DNC dirty trick in an effort to sway an election or remove a duly elected President is some expression of democracy (he’d probably dress that up as impartiality of our “democratic institutions”). The same could be said for Courts exceeding their authority and usurping the powers of the elected branches – they’re doing democracy somehow by capriciously ignoring the expressed will of the electorate.
You’ll get more “democracy” by inviting the third world into your backyard to demand more stuff and humiliate the core population. The fact that these people came from kleptocracies and will mirror that behavior in the U.S. is of no moment. You’ll be overwhealmed by sheer numbers of people who can’t be argued out of their political positions, because their political positions consist of little more than “I’m a certain shade of brown.”
You know, it sure seems like it would be hard to reconcile the idea that diversity is our greatest strength with the fact that, as Klein now basically admits, diversity led to the death of our democracy.
But I guess that isn’t something that even occurs to the Ezra Kleins of the world, which is strange, given their well-known creativity and intelligence.
As SJWs go, Chris Hayes and Yglesias seem to be on a much better intellectual footing.
“High verbal IQ” eh?
The danger of such appeals is that casting Democrats as not real Americans is a frontal assault on mutual toleration.
Mutual tolerance doesn’t sound like a very strong foundation upon which to build a society, let alone a country.
This is what I said last week. A "proposition nation" is just a collection of strangers whose interaction is ruled by a few minimalist guidelines designed to reduce friction between them as they pursue their separate interests.
As you say, no real glue to hold the center together. More like an aggregate of moths around a streetlight than an organic unity bound by common goals, history, blood and traditions. What used to be called a "marriage of convenience".
Yeah, concentrated as in 60% go for the GOP. I love how the lefties moan about whites voting 60% for one side as concentrated while cheering on blacks and other nonwhites voting 90% for the democrats. If whites would concentrate politically like nonwhites, the democrats would not win a national election for quite some time.
It is a sign of the decline of the intellectual in America when this putz is considered a deep thinker who has something worthwhile to say. Boy Ezra wanted Bezos to give him $10 million to start vox.com and Bezos told him to take a hike.
What kind of halfhearted white supremacists are these, allowing the party to be infiltrated by non-whites who make up over 10% of it!
The left might have a point that the GOP is not doing better with nonwhites given the demographic shifts. But they never explain why the democrats should embark on a course to alienate a voting bloc they admit is over half of their vote.
Even for the foreseeable future whites will be the single largest voting bloc for the democrats since the nonwhite vote is supposedly non-monolithic and parsed out among black, various latinos and an Asian category that has become a joke with all the different peoples they have pigeonholed into that category.

Fair Play by Van Morrison:
Fair play to you
Killarney’s lakes are so blue
High-ho silver, tit for tat
Ezra Klein is all about the “tat” but he ain’t much for the “tit.” Ezra Klein and his tribe want to pour nation-wrecking mass immigration into the United States of America, that’s the “tat.” But he don’t like it when Whites band together to protect their own interests by identifying politically as Whites, that’s the “tit.”
Whitey is just now waking up on a large enough scale to fight as Whites for their own political interests and Ezra Klein don’t like it. Now, to be honest, what is needed is a complete and total dislodgement of the WASP / Jew ruling class. If Whitey wants to stop sovereignty-sapping globalization and nation-wrecking mass immigration, then removing the current ruling class from power is essential.
It is also important to remember to avoid any disproportionate response while Whitey goes about the business of decapitating the WASP / Jew ruling class. Read your Burke on revolutionary France and the overkill that transpired there.
Did Ezra Klein not think there would be a reciprocal tit for tat response to the racial transformation of the United States? Did Ezra Klein and his tribe think they were in the clear? Will Ezra Klein and his tribe ever learn?
General George Washington:
“PUT NONE BUT AMERICANS ON GUARD TONIGHT”
Fair Play:
I wondered too, about who those 10% could have been. Northern Negroes? Injuns? Mexicans? Chinamen? (I’m using the terminology of the time.) Hard to see how all those put together could have added up to anything like 10%.
That’s positively un-American!
I’ve taken to calling Team Brown versus Team America. When Ezra talks about “ethnic minorities” he is not referring to Poles or Ukrainians. Team Brown is united in their hatred of the honky and that only works when you are not white.
Boy howdy the coastal elite really don’t want the Midwest to vote Democratic ever again do they?
Earlier probably blacks. Later Asians (Koreans and Vienamese) and Hispanics (Cubans). The GOP appealed to anti-communist Asians and Cubans during the Cold War.
I've known a lot of Asians over the years.
The ones who had been in the US for generations tended to be Democrats, partly because the Democratic Party courted them and the Republicans very much did not. (esp. in Hawaii).
The ones who came during the Cold War, esp. Chinese and Koreans, tended to be Republicans.
The ones who cam after the Cold War tended to be Democrats.
Democracy is Jewish rule. Jews lament the end of democracy. Jews lose power over non-Jews.
And if whites are so utterly incapable of self-organization, that they cannot even effectively govern a country that they are still a majority in, perhaps they lack asabbiyah to rule.
Ezra Klein knows the jig is up on anti-White politics in the United States. Klein knows Whites are now fighting back as Whites. Ezra Klein is a propaganda whore for the WASP / Jew ruling class. Ezra Klein is wondering what President Trump will do next, and, even worse, who or what will come after Trump.
Ezra Klein’s attempt to speak for the United States is laughable. The European Christian ancestral core of the United States is under attack from Ezra Klein and his tribe. Ezra Klein is kicking the United States in the gut while he cries out in pain.
Ezra Klein and his tribe never have to answer simple questions of policy in matters related to immigration. Klein just screams out “racism” and “anti-Semitism.”
Tweet from 2015:
Mass immigration causes wage stagnation, creates multicultural mayhem and increases housing costs.
I would like this to be true; it isn't. As long as people like Tom Steyer and International Money Man Soros are around to fund anti-White movements, and the threat of Kamala Harris and Wall Street lawyer Eric Holder and the rest of the Obama/HRC racialists occupying the executive branch looms, the situation remains dangerous.
White males are neutered, too creepily fixated on Black dominated sports. White women suffer from extreme altruism, and seem willing to surrender their children to the Black and Brown tide.
If Western culture is to survive, White identitarianism needs to become a social and political force. But without the Nazi fetishism.
Lol! Nice to see how firm and steadfast our elites are in facing the big questions.
So if white political consciousness is “a frontal assault on mutual toleration” what is Richard Spencer getting suckerpunched and having his mother pressured to undersell her home, the Marine Trump voter whose car was torched, professional rioters at Berkeley and San Jose tolerated by the police and mayors, the former head of the CIA joking about assassinating the President at the Aspen Institute, and the “white genocide isn’t happening but thank Gaia white genocide is happening” twitter and editorial theme? These people coud not be any more oblivious. The image of our time is a man punched in the face, who is then told that he was not punched in the face.
OT: Separate voodoo-related incidents in the greater Boston area over the past week:
It was one of the first dumping grounds for Boston's problems after the Combat Zone was eliminated and later when the elevated railway was demolished in the 1980s. The neighborhoods that were formerly scarred by the railway began to gentrify and the ungentrifiable inhabitants needed to be moved somewhere else (e.g., Brockton).
Thank God those terrible days are behind us. Worse than the Dark Ages! /s
Of all the insane lies promulgated today, that America was a bad place to live in the ’50s takes the cake. It’s my favorite one followed closely by Greeks are not Euros, but a people of color who have been greatly oppressed by them, not, for instance, by Muslim Turks.
Third is blacks were always in England. Fourth is protecting national boundaries was the primary idiosyncrasy of the Nazis.
There may be certain things the old timers are glad to see gone, (segregation for example) but they largely recall the ‘50s as a time of comfort, prosperity and more wholesome social relations. Yet liberals want us to look back on it as a dark age.

Dunno. Seems to me that the press does a find job of undermining itself….
As we all know, FBI directors have the job for life. You know, just like the Supreme Court.
We have always been at war with Eurasia.
Wasn’t Trump vindicated on that one….

I cant even…too exhausted from all my emotional labor…
Obligatory Hitler reference.
Slaves were counted as three-fifths of a person, Ez, not Blacks in general. And, if slave-owners had had their way, slaves would have counted as full persons….which means that the three-fifths compromise was anti-slavery….
Which means that Blacks and Whites should live in separate nations? I mean, that is the logical inference….
To keep things a bit less black and white (heh), one could also note that Liberal Republicans were once a powerful force within the GOP, and they functioned as a bridge to Democrats….
Let’s see, Lee Harvey Oswald was a commie….and Sirhan Sirhan was an Arab who killed Bobby Kennedy because he supported Israel..which leaves us with MLK….Does one assassination count as a series?
The SJW dream: White vs POC. No politics, just identity.
So, the racial/ethnic composition of the USA in the 1950s was just about perfect……
If the definition of “real Americans” is restricted to those who are foreign-born, non-English speaking, POC, and non-Christian, then it is easy to see how “real Americans” may view themselves as growing in power. As Ana Ramirez chillingly put it, “White America isn’t moving to the left — it’s shrinking.” The perception among many POC activists that their America is taking over helps us understand the appeal of such slogans as “Minority Majority” or “Make America Brown Again.” The danger of such appeals is that casting Republicans as not real Americans is a frontal assault on mutual toleration.
So, that means that the USA should go back to the demographics that we had in the ’50s and had a White Anglo supermajority….

Ron Unz(otherwise known as ‘Da Man’) has an old article (2008) concerning Immigration and the GOP. There is a great chart comparing ‘white vote’ to ‘black population’ showing the southern state YTs voting like Blacks, as a bloc, in the highest percentages.
Ezra would consider that chart evidence of racism.
Perhaps Ezra should have ended his article with an appeal for a special three percent tax on the sale of all mayonnaise to fund the the new White Guilt Bank of the United States.
The danger of such appeals is that casting Democrats as not real Americans is a frontal assault on mutual toleration.
According to Left Orthodoxy, Real America is indeed White America. As we are constantly reminded by T’Nehisi Coates, America was founded on white supremacy from the beginning. George Washington and the Founding Fathers did indeed understand “America” to mean a predominantly Anglo, Protestant society. What else but this do people mean when they speak about white supremacy? On this narrative, both Steve and Howard Zinn agree.
Klein, on the other hand, seems to assume that “real America” means anyone from anywhere. America is the melting pot, the Statue of Liberty, the blank slate for a new generation of dreamers!
Being a moron, Klein has probably also written as though Howard Zinn were correct, that America was set up fundamentally by and for WASPs. But you can’t have it both ways.
America as Statue of Liberty? Or America as the Land of White Supremacy? These are mutually exclusive narratives. I suppose one might waffle, saying that America’s history is a history of both visions competing with each other. But at some point, one vision must be the foreground, the other the background . . .
. . . unless you adopt a diachronic view, as I do. In my understanding, the Sailer/Zinn narrative was true until the late 1800s, and the Ezra Klein narrative has been true since then. The best way forward, in my opinion, is thus to continue adopting the Statue of Liberty narrative but to re-emphasize the unspoken caveat of the Statue’s poem: Give us your refuse* . . .
*but make sure they adopt the WASP norms that have made America the very place they want to move to.
Dems in California are creating voters. When you apply for a drivers licence you are automatically enrolled as a voter. Doesn’t matter if you are a US citizen because they don’t ask that question. Thing is lots of enrolled voters don’t vote.
The Constitution was always vague on voting rights, we actually had to have two amendments so women and 18 year olds nation wide could vote. Is there actually a federal law that prohibits non citizens voting? Or could a state allow it?
What got me more than the 10% nonwhite GOP voter makeup you mentioned was the above statement. By their own accounts whites made up 56% of the democrat vote in 2012. They still probably make up over 50 percent today. Yet the democrats treat that demographic like it has the plague.
The left might have a point that the GOP is not doing better with nonwhites given the demographic shifts. But they never explain why the democrats should embark on a course to alienate a voting bloc they admit is over half of their vote.
Even for the foreseeable future whites will be the single largest voting bloc for the democrats since the nonwhite vote is supposedly non-monolithic and parsed out among black, various latinos and an Asian category that has become a joke with all the different peoples they have pigeonholed into that category.
I don’t see much mutual toleration in non-white country immigration laws. It is supposedly chilling that whites don’t want to be race replaced in the countries of their founding. Is it chilling that Likud is in power and popular in Israel? What does Mr Ezra Klein think of similar issues in Israel?
Let’s see.

I suggested that the Beverly Hills councilman should reframe:
Right, because democracy is all about obeying the 2% to have your people and culture replaced by waves of serfs and helots whose children are indoctrinated to blame your race for all the ills of the world even as they leech off your people.
Btw, what kind of democracy is it that the 2% has more power than the 98%?
Sounds more like ethno-oligarchy.
Just curious: does anyone know if federal law bars non-citizens from voting?
The Constitution was always vague on voting rights, we actually had to have two amendments so women and 18 year olds nation wide could vote. Is there actually a federal law that prohibits non citizens voting? Or could a state allow it?
All Whites ever wanted was to live and let live, and fake Americans have never accepted those terms.
The chutzpah is truly amazing.
Brockton, Massachusetts’ white population decreased 24.25% between 2000 and 2010.
It was one of the first dumping grounds for Boston’s problems after the Combat Zone was eliminated and later when the elevated railway was demolished in the 1980s. The neighborhoods that were formerly scarred by the railway began to gentrify and the ungentrifiable inhabitants needed to be moved somewhere else (e.g., Brockton).
The most famous Brocktonians of the last 100 years are two boxers (the Brockton High mascot is "Boxers").
Of course, I'm sure Steve knows that Herbert Warren Wind was born in Brockton!
Agreed. Though the ‘50s were before my time my ears and eyes have enabled me to communicate with several who lived through the period. They remember a time of little unemployment. They remember safe streets. They remember families and families being together. Few if any “baby daddies” or two Christmases (one at divorced mom’s house and one at divorced dad’s).
There may be certain things the old timers are glad to see gone, (segregation for example) but they largely recall the ‘50s as a time of comfort, prosperity and more wholesome social relations. Yet liberals want us to look back on it as a dark age.
The 1950s were a dark age for leftists, gay people, ambitious women, ambitious blacks, people unhappy in their marriage, people who hate cigarette smoke, people who like safe cars, etc etc.
The past is a foreign country, as they say. One can't go back in time but, by traveling through space, one can get a sense of what traveling through time would be like. Foreign excursions are invariably marked by a combination of "I wish my homeland was like this" with "I'm glad my homeland isn't like this."
When segregation of the blacks was suddenly removed in the 1960s, those good and safe times very quickly went too (though of course there were a number of other major ongoing societal factors that contributed to the changes in thinking and living happening around that time).
The brutal fact I fear is that segregation of the blacks was the crucial ingredient that made this country able to be the America that it was, and its absence has brought forth the host of evils that make it the country it now must be.
"The simple fact of the matter is that the world has never built a multiethnic democracy in which no particular ethnic group is in the majority and where political equality, social equality and economies that empower all have been achieved."
In other words, if america must be multiethnic, it cannot be a free, prosperous democracy.
It seems that our moral and political "betters" see affirmative action based socialistic despotism as America's invevitable future.
It’s giving me whiplash to see how fast they’re moving from ‘Save the republic from the tyrant Trump!’ to ‘Democracy is bad, enlightened authoritarianism is the future!’
I’m increasingly thinking that universal suffrage is a bust. But how to replace it?
I wouldn’t restrict the franchise to property owners or the well to do. I’m not an oligarch, I don’t think virtue is limited to the well off.
Restricting it to veterans or people who’ve served a term of public service may be too great a sacrifice, or corrode those institutions.
At the minimum though, if you want to vote in the USA, I think you should have to pass the same tests that naturalized citizens are supposed to pass. Or at least used to.
No vote unless you can pass a test showing full comprehension of written English, along with an informed knowledge of US history, the operation of the three branches of government etc.
As long as we live in the age of the gun, US will remain a democracy with universal suffrage to avoid a civil war.
Not as strict as yours, but it adds one layer -- hereditary citizenship.
I would allow full citizenship to any American who meets the following criteria,
OR who has ancestors who meet these criteria. (I know, the problem is that in the old days records were that great, which makes this better in theory than in practice).
1. Are you descended from people living in the USA at the time of the signing of the Treaty of Paris in 1783? You're in!
2. Are you descended from people living in territory acquired by the USA, at the time the US took the territory? You're in!
3. Are you a member of an Indian tribe, or descended from anyone who was? You're in!
4. Were any of your ancestors slaves who were freed by the 13th Amendment? You're in!
5. Are you or any of your ancestors a veteran who was honorably discharged (one other type of discharge may be permitted)? You're in!
6. Did you or any of your ancestors fight for the USA or CSA in any war? You're in! (This allows for current servicemen, and also those of us whose ancestors fought for the South).
7. Have you performed some act of service to our country to be defined later? (This could be a stint in the Peace Corps, to allow for conscientious objectors, or perhaps teaching X number of years in an undesirable location, or whatever).
Some may think this WAY-cist. How could it be WAY-cist when both Barack Obama (grandson of a WW II vet) and Michelle Obama (descendant of slaves) get in, but neither President nor First Lady Trump make the cut? (Except Trump could get in under #7 if he completes his term of office without dying or resigning or conviction after impeachment. The Trump kids would get full citizenship at that time. Not sure if being First Lady counts, though.)
Have you been on a military base, VA facility or government office in the last 50 years? Affirmative action all the way.
Restricting voting to those people would exclude Whites as much as Whites are excluded from government employment.
The check that you send to the Treasury will double as a a ballot.
No check (i.e., if you're not a net tax payer);
No ballot;
No vote.
Bottom line: If you're not pulling the cart; you don't get to decide where the cart is going.

- Pay taxes

After years of Soros astroturf and the numerous fake spontaneous actors in the presidential campaign I am fully willing to believe that this was a paid gaslighting hit -- I do not know for sure, but no informed person can dismiss it out of hand like the article writer does. The only problem is that it totally worked (McGowan reacted emotionally, "looks crazy," and cancelled her tour). I remember when Team America came out Jeanine Garofalo totally misunderstood it and attempted to explain exactly how her caricature in the movie was unfair.
Leftists call Cultural-Marxist agitation "work."
Women get sexually harassed in varying degrees. You guys want to be women, don’t complain when you’re treated like women.
Dems thinly disguised message to Republicans:
Ezra Klein's attempt to speak for the United States is laughable. The European Christian ancestral core of the United States is under attack from Ezra Klein and his tribe. Ezra Klein is kicking the United States in the gut while he cries out in pain.
Ezra Klein and his tribe never have to answer simple questions of policy in matters related to immigration. Klein just screams out "racism" and "anti-Semitism."

You can see the exact point where free black labour was cut off at the knees in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, truly gorgeous.
And the source of so many of the homesteaders who took to the land ethnically cleansed of the last serious vestiges of free Native Americans, glorious.
Why doesn’t he just say “there’s no such thing as an American” and be done with it?
He can put quotes around “real American,” but should also put quotes around “American.”
All Whites ever wanted was to live and let live, and fake Americans have never accepted those terms.
Every. Single. Time.
Oh, that’s a good line. Really, it is.
Okay, except it’s also moving to the left–overall, though not in every aspect–though not as swiftly as the elites would like it to.
Speaking of Jews. Did anyone see the video of Pinker on the Joe Rogan podcast? My goodness, Pinker looks like a drag queen these days. He even sounds like a female. He really should cut his hair, drop the intense bike cardio and get under a barbell.
BTW, Pinker allows that he “knows” some “Alt-Righters” who are quite intelligent (we know he was talking about you Mr. Sailer, he just left you unnamed).
Here's the link. It is 6 min 58 seconds long. Worth the view.
You can start at the 39 second mark of this video.
The reasons can be summed up in one word:
Money
These days our elected officials tend to spend more of their time raising money from big money donors than actually doing their jobs. Any wonder that the big money donors get taken care of far more than the common folk?
The Citizens United case, the end of the McCain - Feingold law, and the end of the practice of presidential candidates taking their fall funding from public monies have all led to an increase in oligarchical tendencies for our nation.
I will often give this test to supporters of any elected official (most often the governor of my state, Wisconsin): Can you think of even ONE time when (name elected official) has gone against the wishes of his big money donors?
For most politicians, the answer is either no, or else a case where some big money donors are helped while others are hurt. To be fair, while I have used this the most with Scott Walker, one could point out plenty of Democrats (*cough* *Joe Biden* *cough*) to whom this applies.
I believe our nation is less democratic than it was 50 years ago.
The reasons can be summed up in one word:
Money
Actually, no. It’s “Diversity”. Thanks so much for that, by the way. I hope it was worth it to win those elections.
How did I somehow single handedly make this nation more diverse?
The diversity is driven by our immigration policy, which is driven by the desire of the wealthy powers-that-be to get cheap labor.
The rules are changed to give the wealthy more power over politicians., which leads to ...
The wealthy own the politicians.
The wealthy want massive immigration, therefore ...
The politicians give the wealthy massive immigration to get their cheap, exploitable labor.
And somehow this is MY doing?
Not sure how things work in your universe.
Oh, and you're welcome.
Let's see.

My favourite recent one was China suggesting that if the EU started to give more lax tourist visas for the Schengen Area that the PRC might reciprocate with easier access for EU citizens… to Beijing and Shanghai. (But maybe that is just an easier thing to say than everywhere but not Tibet or East Turkistan)

His “gorgeous visualization” unsurprisingly looks like a rainbow butt plug.
All Whites ever wanted was to live and let live, and fake Americans have never accepted those terms.
Stephen Miller, who seems to be one of Trump’s most important advisers on immigration, is also a jew. I would also add that most liberals who hate him are whites, not jews (due to lower overall percentage of jews in America.)
I wouldn’t restrict the franchise to property owners or the well to do. I’m not an oligarch, I don’t think virtue is limited to the well off.
Restricting it to veterans or people who’ve served a term of public service may be too great a sacrifice, or corrode those institutions.
At the minimum though, if you want to vote in the USA, I think you should have to pass the same tests that naturalized citizens are supposed to pass. Or at least used to.
No vote unless you can pass a test showing full comprehension of written English, along with an informed knowledge of US history, the operation of the three branches of government etc.
How will you convince the non-voters living in the US that you guys aren’t going to screw them over?What happens when a demagogue stirs up resentment among those who live in the US but are denied right to vote?
As long as we live in the age of the gun, US will remain a democracy with universal suffrage to avoid a civil war.
The Republican party didn’t just “remain” white: it has finally become the party of *all* heritage-americans.
We used to have political parties where unemployed West Virginians, auto union members in Michigan, Ivanka Trump and her family, Montana ranchers, etc. might have different interests and support different parties.
No longer. The Republican party “remained” the party of George W. Bush’s millionaire friends in Texas over the last few decades, but look what else:
Bill Clinton won West Virginia 52-37 in 1996. Hillary lost it 69-27 in 2016.
UNIONS couldnt stop their members from voting for Trump. You know, opposing billionaires used to be the point of unions.
It’s not as simple as saying sure, the parties switch sometimes, the same voters in Alabama just used to call themselves Democrats, etc. 2016 was the election where it became clear: yes, all white people. the only relevant political question is now are you on America’s side or not?
Is there any white demographic that doesn’t belong to Trump? New England and the Pacific Northwest, I supose. I haven’t looked at all the numbers but keep in mind Trump won even New Jersey whites, eg, by a HUGE margin.
The phrase “Rockefeller republicans” is tossed around too glibly: there aren’t many Rockefellers and Trump still easily won New York whites. Compare to the last Rockefeller Republican: “However Suffolk County swung heavily to Trump, from a 51-47 win for Obama to a 51-45 win for Trump, the first time a Republican won Suffolk County since Bill Clinton narrowly lost it to George H.W. Bush by 1.5% in 1992.”
Yes, it’s true Republicans don’t have whites in San Francisco or Manhattan or Seattle but that barely extends to the gentile suburbs (maybe in California). I know there are plenty of strongly Republican areas outside of Portland and Seattle in the NW.
But the map has not flipped or shifted or anything cute like that. Democrats have been wiped out of real America; it’s just heritage-americans across geography and social class against people who are…less in favor of American heritage. The exceptions are dwindling.
So, you best start believing in ethnic political parties: you’re in one.
Democracy means one man, one vote (of course there are more details such as number of delegates from the state, etc). As far as I remember, no jew forces non-jews to vote for a particular candidate. Jews are only 2-2.5 percent of American population. If whites (or any other group) cannot organize properly to vote for their guy & voice their policy opinion, blaming it on one specific ethnic group seems unfair.
And if whites are so utterly incapable of self-organization, that they cannot even effectively govern a country that they are still a majority in, perhaps they lack asabbiyah to rule.

She thinks it is already too late for Germany and she plans to emigrate to Poland.
The comments uniformly say, “Poland, keep her out, make her stay in Germany and atone for her stupidity.”
This story is not carried anywhere else. I am guessing it’s fake news.
https://dorzeczy.pl/kraj/52961/Niemcy-uciekna-do-was.html
I looked at her public Facebook page and...yeah, the Polish article has to be fake news. The articles she's shared in the past week about the problems facing migrants in Europe would indicate that she isn't ready to give up and flee Germany for Poland just yet.
Ezra Klein's attempt to speak for the United States is laughable. The European Christian ancestral core of the United States is under attack from Ezra Klein and his tribe. Ezra Klein is kicking the United States in the gut while he cries out in pain.

“Ezra Klein knows the jig is up on anti-White politics in the United States. Klein knows Whites are now fighting back as Whites. ”
I would like this to be true; it isn’t. As long as people like Tom Steyer and International Money Man Soros are around to fund anti-White movements, and the threat of Kamala Harris and Wall Street lawyer Eric Holder and the rest of the Obama/HRC racialists occupying the executive branch looms, the situation remains dangerous.
White males are neutered, too creepily fixated on Black dominated sports. White women suffer from extreme altruism, and seem willing to surrender their children to the Black and Brown tide.
If Western culture is to survive, White identitarianism needs to become a social and political force. But without the Nazi fetishism.
I agree with you. Most white people in the United States are oblivious to the fact that their government is largely corrupt and in thrall to a foreign power. They are also incapable, by and large, of even considering the possibililty that the vast majority of the Jewish elite in the United States has interests that are not particularly patriotic or concerned with the historic American nation.
While the evidence is overwhelming that the Jewish elite is hostile to the historic American nation, advocating policies like massive third world immigration that are destroying our cohesion as a people and turning us into Babel, this subject is one that very few people are willing to even consider for fear of being called anti-Semitic.
And if whites were so aware and fighting back as whites they could never in a million years support and continue to elect and re-elect traitorous bastards like McCain, Obama, Clintons, Ryan, Graham, Bushes--add in any other rogue you choose to this list. I was just on a website the other day talking about the hero McCain and how he has made so many sacrifices to serve his country!!
No, there are stirrings that are occurring but the vast majority of Americans are comfortable being blue pilled and saluting the flag and believing that the cause of Israel is our own cause.
The Republic will not be resurrected by bravado or false claims of an enlightened electorate.
The greatest hurdle faced today to resurrect a functioning republic and the establishment of the rule of law is an out to lunch population of Americans who are blissfully ignorant that their nation is being destroyed while they sleep.

She shouldn’t be allowed to move to Poland. Most of the Germans will pay the price of stupidity she supported. It is only fair that she too gets to share the joys of new ethnic foods & diversity.
That story even gets grosser:
Klein and other progs like him are full of it.
It was the Progs who initially went insane(when Bush 43 was elected) and began the process of demonizing anyone to the right of Al Gore. We had 8 years of them spewing the same sort of vitriol they are spewing against Trump and his supporters.
When Obama ran for president they came right out and stated anyone who didn’t vote for Obama was racist and the same for anyone who questioned him. This went on for the entire campaign. The Progs made it all about race. Part of Obama’s attraction to the Progs was his promise to take America down a couple of notches. It culminated in the last years of his presidency of flooding the country with diseased 3rd world savages, attacking the police and supporting black thugs.
It was hard not to see Obama as anti-American and anti-white
And what did the Democrats choose to run against Trump – a nasty, anti-white Christian male, open borders globalist who is as crooked as the Borgia sisters. All she promised was more of the same horrible s**t that Obama plied.
She and the Democrats never offered anything to blue collars and the middle-class except a dagger in their collective guts and a middle-finger. It is no wonder that the lower class whites turned their back on this evil group of SOB’s like Klein and his ilk.
They don’t represent the people, they in fact hate the American people and want them gone
At what point does the world start realizing that the Ezra Kleins, Matt Yglesias’s and Chris Hayes’s of the world are still barely 30? Their Millennial opinions aren’t validated by life experience yet (A 30 year old Millennial is like a 20 year old Baby Boomer in terms of real life experience).
Why do we even give these kids any serious forum to spew their nonsense?
(A 30 year old Millennial is like a 20 year old Baby Boomer in terms of real life experience).
… and a 30 year old Millennial is like a 13 year old member of the Silent Generation.
Huh?
How did I somehow single handedly make this nation more diverse?
The diversity is driven by our immigration policy, which is driven by the desire of the wealthy powers-that-be to get cheap labor.
The rules are changed to give the wealthy more power over politicians., which leads to …
The wealthy own the politicians.
The wealthy want massive immigration, therefore …
The politicians give the wealthy massive immigration to get their cheap, exploitable labor.
And somehow this is MY doing?
Not sure how things work in your universe.
Oh, and you’re welcome.
I didn't say it was single-handed.
The diversity is driven by our immigration policy, which is driven by the desire of the wealthy powers-that-be to get cheap labor.
Partially. But you can't seriously deny that it's also driven by the Democratic party to get more voters in the future. They openly brag about it, after all.
And somehow this is MY doing?
You among others.
I couldn’t agree more that we need some type of aptitude test in order to vote. The citizenship test that yout mentioned might be the way to go. I am truly tired of stupid, intellectually lazy, and uninformed, people having a misdirected say in deciding what direction the country should go in. Unfortunately, that will never happen as it would decimate the Democrat Party, and they know it. Which is why they would fight ferociously against such an idea
Corn, I know that non-residents, such as dorm students are allowed to vote in local elections and then vote in their home state.
I wouldn’t restrict the franchise to property owners or the well to do. I’m not an oligarch, I don’t think virtue is limited to the well off.
Restricting it to veterans or people who’ve served a term of public service may be too great a sacrifice, or corrode those institutions.

No vote unless you can pass a test showing full comprehension of written English, along with an informed knowledge of US history, the operation of the three branches of government etc.
I would have my own definition of whom should be eligible for full citizenship.
Not as strict as yours, but it adds one layer — hereditary citizenship.
I would allow full citizenship to any American who meets the following criteria,
OR who has ancestors who meet these criteria. (I know, the problem is that in the old days records were that great, which makes this better in theory than in practice).
1. Are you descended from people living in the USA at the time of the signing of the Treaty of Paris in 1783? You’re in!
2. Are you descended from people living in territory acquired by the USA, at the time the US took the territory? You’re in!
3. Are you a member of an Indian tribe, or descended from anyone who was? You’re in!
4. Were any of your ancestors slaves who were freed by the 13th Amendment? You’re in!
5. Are you or any of your ancestors a veteran who was honorably discharged (one other type of discharge may be permitted)? You’re in!
6. Did you or any of your ancestors fight for the USA or CSA in any war? You’re in! (This allows for current servicemen, and also those of us whose ancestors fought for the South).
7. Have you performed some act of service to our country to be defined later? (This could be a stint in the Peace Corps, to allow for conscientious objectors, or perhaps teaching X number of years in an undesirable location, or whatever).
Some may think this WAY-cist. How could it be WAY-cist when both Barack Obama (grandson of a WW II vet) and Michelle Obama (descendant of slaves) get in, but neither President nor First Lady Trump make the cut? (Except Trump could get in under #7 if he completes his term of office without dying or resigning or conviction after impeachment. The Trump kids would get full citizenship at that time. Not sure if being First Lady counts, though.)
The reasons can be summed up in one word:
Money
These days our elected officials tend to spend more of their time raising money from big money donors than actually doing their jobs. Any wonder that the big money donors get taken care of far more than the common folk?
The Citizens United case, the end of the McCain - Feingold law, and the end of the practice of presidential candidates taking their fall funding from public monies have all led to an increase in oligarchical tendencies for our nation.
I will often give this test to supporters of any elected official (most often the governor of my state, Wisconsin): Can you think of even ONE time when (name elected official) has gone against the wishes of his big money donors?
For most politicians, the answer is either no, or else a case where some big money donors are helped while others are hurt. To be fair, while I have used this the most with Scott Walker, one could point out plenty of Democrats (*cough* *Joe Biden* *cough*) to whom this applies.
While nobody of serious consequence would entrust Ezra Klein with safeguarding policy (I hope), I think it is a pretty grim situation we are looking at. The GOP is just not going to press its advantage and will keep proposing rent seeking policies that benefit nobody except the donor class-ergo, they will be replaced by Democrats, as even the Republican base will reject their platform. But then the donors are going to turn to the Democrats and start the process all over again. Where does it end? My prediction: oligarchs are going to start dispensing with the whole thing and start directly involving themselves as candidates, and on the fundamental issues-especially trade and the stratification of social mobility-they will be increasingly indistinguishable from each other. Trump is the first. He will certainly not be the last.
You’ve got to always be careful with the ancient Rome comparisons-it was just such a vastly different time period-but that being said, there’s a disturbing parallel to the 2nd Century BC Republic. Yeoman citizenry, the traditional backbone of republicanism, are increasingly being squeezed into client/patron relationships for survival. Small businesses and startups are increasingly being bought out by large companies much as small farmers could not compete against a few large estates. The transition of the values of the aristocratic class and upwardly mobile equites changing, usually for the more decadent, and societal lessers naturally picking up from them. (Leading to their eventual, creeping replacement in the principate and final exclusion in the dominate, but don’t want to get too long-winded…)
Of course, mass amnesty-and uncontrolled immigration in general-is another proposal that happens to align neatly with the interests of oligarchs, just as mass importation of slaves were for the Roman aristocracy. It isn’t just another proposal, it is fundamental to the whole operation. It’s pretty telling that despite the fact that it got rejected over and over again by the vast majority of the American electorate throughout the 1990s and 2000s, in blue and red states alike. (The fate of Proposition 187 in California should outrage anybody who abides by the basic principle of democratic rule, frankly, regardless of what you think of the issue. The voters made their wishes known by a pretty decisive majority. And it was taken apart-not by democratic or republican means, or even by the will of the state, but by cowardly subterfuge and a media willing to cover for such an outrage.) Even as late as 2014, Eric Cantor pretty much committed career suicide over choosing the Chamber of Commerce’s demands on amnesty over the wishes of Ohio voters. Yet-the proposals keep popping up. Evidently, they don’t take no for an answer. They will keep stamping their feet until they have what they want, regardless of whether it is our national interests or not.

This is very true.
I’ve known a lot of Asians over the years.
The ones who had been in the US for generations tended to be Democrats, partly because the Democratic Party courted them and the Republicans very much did not. (esp. in Hawaii).
The ones who came during the Cold War, esp. Chinese and Koreans, tended to be Republicans.
The ones who cam after the Cold War tended to be Democrats.
The Roman parallels are startling when you look at the late Roman Republic period featuring show trials of political opponents, organised violence in the city, weakened adherence to the state cult and increasing interest in foreign cults, growing influence in the Capital of groups originating and having significant power bases in non-Metropolitan countries…
What could possibly go wrong?
The Democratic Party seems to think it’s 212AD (or CE LOL) and time to have a new Edict of Caracalla, making everyone Americans.
Me? I think late Republic.
Petraeus as Caesar, anyone? Or maybe as Sulla?
but stands as the reason he could put down the reins of power once he did what he came to do.
Just about every one on earth.
And that’s just among the quick. GK Chesterton called democracy the tyranny of those who just happen to be walking around at the moment. In other words, ancestors and descendants have no say.
…she’s an activist with a long history of work…
Leftists call Cultural-Marxist agitation “work.”
BTW, Pinker allows that he "knows" some "Alt-Righters" who are quite intelligent (we know he was talking about you Mr. Sailer, he just left you unnamed).
On January 06, 2009, Pinker was featured on the now-defunct “Men Who Look Like Old Lesbians” site.
But I guess that isn't something that even occurs to the Ezra Kleins of the world, which is strange, given their well-known creativity and intelligence.
Klein has always struck me as rather dim. So no, he probably doesn’t realize it.
As SJWs go, Chris Hayes and Yglesias seem to be on a much better intellectual footing.

We infidels, not us infidels. Shouldn’t Merkel’s gestapo imprison her for spreading ethnic animosity or something?
“The nonwhite share of the Democratic vote rose from 7 percent in the 1950s to 44 percent in 2012.”
To what extent has white flight from the democrats been an issue in this demographic? The white people voting democrat these days have to be retarded given the animosity toward white people in that party.
All Whites ever wanted was to live and let live, and fake Americans have never accepted those terms.
There are no “fake” Americans – if the United States is a proposition nation. That’s our fatal flaw. And it’s why people Klein are going to win.
Import enough people and/or control the narrative and the proposition changes.
You assume the importation will continue on its current trajectory. But your assumption is false. Static analysis is always wrong.
First of all, people will start saying "White Genocide" a lot. A major presidential candidate has already said those two words. No, not him.
Hillary in her alt-right speech: "This is someone who retweets white supremacists online, like the user who goes by the name "white-genocide-TM." Trump took this fringe bigot with a few dozen followers and spread his message to 11 million people."
"White Genocide" is a term that will become world-famous. They might even name this century after it.
Lindsey Graham is still probably crying about that.
That’s right. Because we’re so numerous.
I wouldn’t restrict the franchise to property owners or the well to do. I’m not an oligarch, I don’t think virtue is limited to the well off.

The military and public employment is overwhelmingly black brown and non White.
Have you been on a military base, VA facility or government office in the last 50 years? Affirmative action all the way.
Restricting voting to those people would exclude Whites as much as Whites are excluded from government employment.
Where the blacks mostly concentrate in is mostly logistics where they can participate in theft and be lazy since most of their CO's and NCO"s are mostly black.
As for contractor personnel - it varies. Out here in CA at the USAF bases, contract workers tend to be lily white because they are the only ones who can pass a background security check.
The reason you find blacks flooding the VA is the same reason you find blacks loading up dialysis centers and diabetes/hypertension specialists. Because most have horrible life styles and neglect their bodies until they give out. Booze, drugs, fast food and drugs are part and parcel of the black life style.
Mexicans aren't much better.
If men want to transition into women, they just have to take the bad with the good.

Repeal the 19th Amendment for starters.
Problem is, who would make up the aptitude test?
"The simple fact of the matter is that the world has never built a multiethnic democracy in which no particular ethnic group is in the majority and where political equality, social equality and economies that empower all have been achieved."
In other words, if america must be multiethnic, it cannot be a free, prosperous democracy.
It seems that our moral and political "betters" see affirmative action based socialistic despotism as America's invevitable future.
““The simple fact of the matter is that the world has never built a multiethnic democracy in which no particular ethnic group is in the majority and where political equality, social equality and economies that empower all have been achieved.”
So they admit its an impossible goal, but we should still try for it to sooth their egos?

It is worth noting that in Canada there was a break down in the coalition of the fringes because of the hijab hoax hysteria. Basically a Muslim girl claimed an Asian man cut her hijab with scissors, the media and politicians (trudeau) went apoplectic, turned out to be another hoax. Later some members of the Chinese community protested the media and trudeau, and demanded an apology:
Blacks are sacrosanct to leftists. Asians are usually not. They are only useful to the leftists as a protected class when their existence is convenient to their cause. Often they are inconvenient, so are lumped together with "lily whites" (e.g. "diversity" in Silicon Valley, graduate/professional schools, etc.).
And, yet, today there are increasingly "social justice warrior" Asians in North America, whose real slogan, I suppose, is "Let us grovel some more, so that we too might be included in the Coalition of the Fringes."
BTW, Pinker allows that he "knows" some "Alt-Righters" who are quite intelligent (we know he was talking about you Mr. Sailer, he just left you unnamed).

There may be certain things the old timers are glad to see gone, (segregation for example) but they largely recall the ‘50s as a time of comfort, prosperity and more wholesome social relations. Yet liberals want us to look back on it as a dark age.
Any era can be described thusly: it was the best of times, it was the worst of times.
The 1950s were a dark age for leftists, gay people, ambitious women, ambitious blacks, people unhappy in their marriage, people who hate cigarette smoke, people who like safe cars, etc etc.
The past is a foreign country, as they say. One can’t go back in time but, by traveling through space, one can get a sense of what traveling through time would be like. Foreign excursions are invariably marked by a combination of “I wish my homeland was like this” with “I’m glad my homeland isn’t like this.”
How did I somehow single handedly make this nation more diverse?
The diversity is driven by our immigration policy, which is driven by the desire of the wealthy powers-that-be to get cheap labor.
The rules are changed to give the wealthy more power over politicians., which leads to ...
The wealthy own the politicians.
The wealthy want massive immigration, therefore ...
The politicians give the wealthy massive immigration to get their cheap, exploitable labor.
And somehow this is MY doing?
Not sure how things work in your universe.
Oh, and you're welcome.

Have you been on a military base, VA facility or government office in the last 50 years? Affirmative action all the way.
Restricting voting to those people would exclude Whites as much as Whites are excluded from government employment.
Actually the U.S. military is still mostly white and doubly so for the combat units and the elite units look like a bunch of Vikings.
Where the blacks mostly concentrate in is mostly logistics where they can participate in theft and be lazy since most of their CO’s and NCO”s are mostly black.
As for contractor personnel – it varies. Out here in CA at the USAF bases, contract workers tend to be lily white because they are the only ones who can pass a background security check.
The reason you find blacks flooding the VA is the same reason you find blacks loading up dialysis centers and diabetes/hypertension specialists. Because most have horrible life styles and neglect their bodies until they give out. Booze, drugs, fast food and drugs are part and parcel of the black life style.
Mexicans aren’t much better.
For example, a Nimitz-class aircraft carrier has a complement of about 3,200 ship's personnel, 2,800 air wing personnel, plus 70 flag. Of these, something like 300 will probably be Filipinos. But likely none among the air wing personnel will be Filipinos and it's almost a dead certainty that none of the 120 or so aviators or flag staff will be Filipinos.
The aviators are the tip of the spear, and that tip is very white and very male. Among Naval aviators, about 4 percent are female [essentially white], and 2.5 percent are black [essentially male], plus a handful of this and that. White men love being catapulted off ships in pointy-nosed airplanes. Others not so much. (But those others who do love it, too, are very highly motivated and very good).

Someone in another thread found the original Polish article, which is mostly paywalled and dated January 18th: https://dorzeczy.pl/kraj/52961/Niemcy-uciekna-do-was.html
I looked at her public Facebook page and…yeah, the Polish article has to be fake news. The articles she’s shared in the past week about the problems facing migrants in Europe would indicate that she isn’t ready to give up and flee Germany for Poland just yet.
I wouldn’t restrict the franchise to property owners or the well to do. I’m not an oligarch, I don’t think virtue is limited to the well off.
Restricting it to veterans or people who’ve served a term of public service may be too great a sacrifice, or corrode those institutions.
At the minimum though, if you want to vote in the USA, I think you should have to pass the same tests that naturalized citizens are supposed to pass. Or at least used to.
No vote unless you can pass a test showing full comprehension of written English, along with an informed knowledge of US history, the operation of the three branches of government etc.
For Federal offices, voting should be done April 15 each year.
The check that you send to the Treasury will double as a a ballot.
No check (i.e., if you’re not a net tax payer);
No ballot;
No vote.
Bottom line: If you’re not pulling the cart; you don’t get to decide where the cart is going.

One difference is that the American Empire is not importing Germans.
But I guess that isn't something that even occurs to the Ezra Kleins of the world, which is strange, given their well-known creativity and intelligence.
(((Klein))) cries out in diversity pain as he uses diversity and its pain to crush the kulaks.
In Kleinworld, the target’s resistance to diversity morally justifies doubling down.
After years of Soros astroturf and the numerous fake spontaneous actors in the presidential campaign I am fully willing to believe that this was a paid gaslighting hit -- I do not know for sure, but no informed person can dismiss it out of hand like the article writer does. The only problem is that it totally worked (McGowan reacted emotionally, "looks crazy," and cancelled her tour). I remember when Team America came out Jeanine Garofalo totally misunderstood it and attempted to explain exactly how her caricature in the movie was unfair.
That’s what I would do if I wanted to mess up McGowan’s tour. Find a suitable nutcase, spool zer up, and point zer in the right direction. Cheap, easy, and deniable.
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM voters WHERE native_born = TRUE AND english_speaking = TRUE AND religion = “CHRISTIAN” WHERE year = 1984 AS republican_voter_count_1984
Again where year = 2016 AS republican_voter_count_2016
My SQL is probably sloppy, but
answer (TRUE, as Ezra correctly reports) = republican_voter_count_1984 > republican_voter_count_2016
by that query.
I am pessimistic about my future and those of my kind, but Ezra is wildly optimistic about his. Audacious Epigone’s database queries don’t show the “CHRISTIAN” constraint to be as important as Ezra assumes it is. The only Christian demographic that votes overwhelmingly R is Mormons. Mormons are bit an oddity.
Roman Catholics Christians (they are Christians too) have always leaned D, enough to cancel out Evangelicals. Even if Trump had lost (and that would have been by a small margin) the CHRISTIAN constraint doesn’t explain what’s going on.

And no surprise who does most of tbe dying as well. But I know liberals who still believe poor blacks fill the most flag draped caskets.
I think the rough period we’d be at is right before the rise of the Gracchi brothers, in the 2nd Century BC. After the Punic Wars, that’s when a lot of the social transformations we’ve seen in the last 25 years in the US have their analogues, when Rome went from major power to hegemon.
So, not quite Marius and Sulla yet, but getting there. And again, you always have to take the Roman comparison with a grain of salt. Never forget that it was probably a *good* thing that the Italians weren’t in charge anymore by the Crisis of the Third Century. But for tough Illyrian peasant soldiers like Aurelian, Diocletian, and Constantine who took no guff from a bunch of spoiled Senators who used to be something, Rome would have collapsed a lot sooner than it eventually did.
Personally I don't think conditions have eroded to the point where it can be considered similar to the Marian era, but I agree the social issues evoke the Gracchi years to a degree.

“It’s a story all about migrations throughout history,” he told Channel 4 in a documentary to be aired on February 18.
“It maybe gets rid of the idea that you have to look a certain way to be from somewhere. We are all immigrants,” he added.

Segregation, largely aimed at containing the Negro population in the Southern states and big Northern cities (as well as the common sense racial fellow-feeling among whites that lay behind it) is why those were good and safe times. Take it away – as we did – and then you’re surprised by any of what has followed?

Something I hadn’t noticed before:
From looking at the Heavy article linked in your Gatestone article and searching their names on Google Images, it seems quite likely that the two Long Island MS-13 murder victims were more than just good friends.
Both dressed very butch at times, one wanted to go into law enforcement… and they both wanted to play for the WNBA. Yeah.
As long as we live in the age of the gun, US will remain a democracy with universal suffrage to avoid a civil war.
I’m sure universal suffage is here to stay. I was musing, not actually predicting its downfall
Leftist dictatorship was postponed by Trump. But it’s only a postponement. Bannon understood how to end the leftist threat by finally deporting all of the illegals. But Trump just doesn’t get it.
I’ve said it before here: Trump’s kids will probably be chased out of America by leftists in the future due to Trump failing to understand that this era was the last chance to save the republic.
Instead Trump has decided to allow illegals to stay and give us more debt economy pumping like Bush circa 2004-2008. This won’t make America great again!
The Silent Generation were especially silent in 1965 with the passage of Hart Cellar. Not a peep out of them.
There may be certain things the old timers are glad to see gone, (segregation for example) but they largely recall the ‘50s as a time of comfort, prosperity and more wholesome social relations. Yet liberals want us to look back on it as a dark age.
Segregation, those formal and informal policies aimed at containing the Negro population in the Southern states and big Northern cities (as well as the common sense and racial fellow-feeling among whites that lay behind it), is why those could be relatively good and safe and simpler and more prosperous times.
When segregation of the blacks was suddenly removed in the 1960s, those good and safe times very quickly went too (though of course there were a number of other major ongoing societal factors that contributed to the changes in thinking and living happening around that time).
The brutal fact I fear is that segregation of the blacks was the crucial ingredient that made this country able to be the America that it was, and its absence has brought forth the host of evils that make it the country it now must be.

When I posted my dismay about Trump’s “shithole” comment on my Facebook page, I was amazed at how similar many of the pro-Trump Orthodox Jews I knew sounded in comparison with Spencer, Duke and Trump himself.
As one argued, “Option A: El Salvador isn’t a ‘shithole,’ so they don’t need 17 years of Temporary Protected Status, and migrants from there should be sent home immediately. Option B: El Salvador is, in fact, a ‘shithole.’”
Another Orthodox friend, who had left South Africa for Israel, remarked, “I’m so glad I emigrated from a shithole.”
And another frum Jew wrote, “So, how many snowflakes would like to move to Haiti?”

In 2012 Rebecca Sommer founded the refugee aid association Arbeitsgruppe Flucht + Menschen-Rechte (AG F+M) [Working Group Asylum + Human Rights]. At the end of 2015, this artist, photographer and journalist and documentary maker applauded Angela Merkel’s decision to open Germany’s borders to the “refugees” who had been blocked in Hungary.
”I thought their medieval view was going to change with time…but after having seen these situations occur repeatedly and observing what was happening around me, as a volunteer, I have had to recognise that the Muslim refugees have grown up with values that are totally different, they have undergone brainwashing from childhood on and are indoctrinated by Islam and absolutely do not intend to adopt our values. Worse, they regard we infidels with disdain and arrogance.”
She thinks it is already too late for Germany and she plans to emigrate to Poland.
The comments uniformly say, “Poland, keep her out, make her stay in Germany and atone for her stupidity.”

Maybe so, but the second half of White Genocide will not go as easily and smoothly as the first half.
First of all, people will start saying “White Genocide” a lot. A major presidential candidate has already said those two words. No, not him.
Hillary in her alt-right speech: “This is someone who retweets white supremacists online, like the user who goes by the name “white-genocide-TM.” Trump took this fringe bigot with a few dozen followers and spread his message to 11 million people.”
“White Genocide” is a term that will become world-famous. They might even name this century after it.
Real News.

http://www.novinite.com/articles/187684/The+Germans+will+Begin+to+Leave+their+Country%2C+Warned+an+Activist+Helping+Refugees
A German language internet news service also reports the story.
https://de.sputniknews.com/gesellschaft/20180206319417329-deutschland-flchtlinge-folgen-krise-rebecca-sommer-migrationspolitik-kultur-angst/
German text translates to: “The German human rights activist Rebecca Sommer, who previously actively supported the migration policy of German Chancellor Angela Merkel, now wants to leave for Poland. For Germany, it was already too late, she explained in an interview with the Polish online newspaper “Do Rzeczy”.”
The Gracchi period seems about right. The situation isn’t at the point for someone like Marius or Sulla to turn up, Marius’ rise came about due to the Germanic invasions and the lack of able bodied land owners to fill the armies to fight said Germans. Therefore for a Marius I would say that there would need to be some kind of major outside threat and a leadership that is unwilling to confront it. People are still too comfortable for that to be the case.
Personally I don’t think conditions have eroded to the point where it can be considered similar to the Marian era, but I agree the social issues evoke the Gracchi years to a degree.
I've known a lot of Asians over the years.
The ones who had been in the US for generations tended to be Democrats, partly because the Democratic Party courted them and the Republicans very much did not. (esp. in Hawaii).
The ones who came during the Cold War, esp. Chinese and Koreans, tended to be Republicans.
The ones who cam after the Cold War tended to be Democrats.
But now the salient variable among them for belonging to one party or another, or at least vote one way or another, is religion.

Check out this post of hers from January 17th, the day before the Polish article was posted. It contains quotes very similar to those that appeared in the Polish article. Maybe the writer pieced together his “interview” using this post (and other sources?), or maybe he did actually interview her.

This is true, and has been so for decades. It’s been remarked that blacks and other traditional minorities (such as Filipinos in the Navy) by and large and by choice occupy the same specialties they did when the armed services were segregated.
For example, a Nimitz-class aircraft carrier has a complement of about 3,200 ship’s personnel, 2,800 air wing personnel, plus 70 flag. Of these, something like 300 will probably be Filipinos. But likely none among the air wing personnel will be Filipinos and it’s almost a dead certainty that none of the 120 or so aviators or flag staff will be Filipinos.
The aviators are the tip of the spear, and that tip is very white and very male.

While I don’t see any pithy statements from Trump a la Sulla (“I came to conquer, not for lectures”) his heart seems to be in the right place: trying to right the ship of state to prevent a bloodier civil conflict. Time will tell if he has the “any means necessary” drive that made Sulla so damn brutal
but stands as the reason he could put down the reins of power once he did what he came to do.

And here’s another potential topic (now that we have already seen the pernicious effects of white racism on Polynesians):
The left might have a point that the GOP is not doing better with nonwhites given the demographic shifts. But they never explain why the democrats should embark on a course to alienate a voting bloc they admit is over half of their vote.
Even for the foreseeable future whites will be the single largest voting bloc for the democrats since the nonwhite vote is supposedly non-monolithic and parsed out among black, various latinos and an Asian category that has become a joke with all the different peoples they have pigeonholed into that category.
In reality though, SOME whites remain in charge of the Democratic Party by disparaging whites in general (“in principle”). I wonder how sustainable that will be soon.
It would be hilarious, though, if he actually did kowtow – I mean, physically.

Leftist hierarchy on race is crystal clear whether in Canada or in the U.S. And this is not new. If you looked at the infamous video (news) clips from the L.A. riots (that are available on YouTube), you see Koreans arming themselves to protect themselves and their stores from black violence and Hispanic looting and in some cases exchanging gun fire with black gangs. Meanwhile, the whole narration from the all-white news anchors is about how endangered the police must feel because of these armed Koreans and how they are just shooting everywhere (implying they are uncontrollable lunatics). In one infamous shootout video, you can actually hear the white female news anchor blatantly lie about the video as it rolls, claiming that the Koreans “started something” with the black youths who just “arrived” and then ran way, when in fact that video shows the Korean merchants, defending their gun store from looting by a black gang, because they didn’t want the guns to fall into the hands of criminals (the Koreans never retreated and in fact repelled the gangbangers).
Blacks are sacrosanct to leftists. Asians are usually not. They are only useful to the leftists as a protected class when their existence is convenient to their cause. Often they are inconvenient, so are lumped together with “lily whites” (e.g. “diversity” in Silicon Valley, graduate/professional schools, etc.).
And, yet, today there are increasingly “social justice warrior” Asians in North America, whose real slogan, I suppose, is “Let us grovel some more, so that we too might be included in the Coalition of the Fringes.”

I’m in agreement. Universal suffrage is a terrible idea. Any restriction will have flaws. But it’s better than universal suffrage where any idiot can vote. My wish list?
- Literate
- Pass US citizen test
- Pay taxes
- Male
- Over 21
Lee Kuan Yew said he’d give married parents over 30 with children 2 votes instead of one. He said they have a stake in the future and would vote to ensure the future for their children. That’s not a bad idea.
Yep. In multiracial societies with no majority political parties become proxies for race.
Lee Kuan Yew once said: “In multiracial societies, you don’t vote in accordance with your economic interests and social interests, you vote in accordance with race and religion.”
Look at non-white voting patterns. Already happening. As Whites wake up they’ll increasingly vote as a bloc. Whites went for Trump, bigly.
Singapore knows this. It’s why they keep the ethnic Chinese in the supermajority by importing Chinese from elsewhere, on the down low. The Chinese elite in Singapore would never, ever allow Singapore to go majority Malay/Indian.
This has been going on for decades. That’s the point of owning the media. That’s how you defeat us:
Sure, atomization gets you a long way, but the inversion of the societal immune system is the death blow:

At what point does the world start realizing that the Ezra Kleins, Matt Yglesias’s and Chris Hayes’s of the world are still barely 30? Their Millennial opinions aren’t validated by life experience yet (A 30 year old Millennial is like a 20 year old Baby Boomer in terms of real life experience).
Why do we even give these kids any serious forum to spew their nonsense?
We don’t. We don’t have any say in the matter.
Indoctrination is a powerful tool, and it works on the stupid and the smart.
And if whites are so utterly incapable of self-organization, that they cannot even effectively govern a country that they are still a majority in, perhaps they lack asabbiyah to rule.
That’s the most low-brow definition of “democracy” there is, but I’ll play along. Why focus on force? Fraud achieves the same result, and is just as wrong. And, yes, Jewish propaganda defrauds millions into voting for their own destruction.
Which brings us back to the similar point. If whites (or any group) are so stupid that a small, well-organized group, can literally persuade them into "voting for their own destruction." perhaps that whites (or any other majority group) simply isn't smart enough to be a rule. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
I've known a lot of Asians over the years.
The ones who had been in the US for generations tended to be Democrats, partly because the Democratic Party courted them and the Republicans very much did not. (esp. in Hawaii).
The ones who came during the Cold War, esp. Chinese and Koreans, tended to be Republicans.
The ones who cam after the Cold War tended to be Democrats.
The Dems used to be in the very old days the party of a) the South and b) the city machines. The latter is mostly why they got the “ethnic” vote. I’d be interested in whether the Asians you knew who were here for generations were rural or urban?
The Asians I've known who have been here for generations were MOSTLY from Hawaii, which has a mix of urban and rural Asians. The GOP put together a machine based on whites and Natives, at a time when few Asians could vote. So politically active Asians had to go to the Democratic Party. When the combination of Asian voters was high enough, the Dems pretty much took over the state.
There were also a few Asians who had been here for generations from Cali, and they were urban or suburban.
It was one of the first dumping grounds for Boston's problems after the Combat Zone was eliminated and later when the elevated railway was demolished in the 1980s. The neighborhoods that were formerly scarred by the railway began to gentrify and the ungentrifiable inhabitants needed to be moved somewhere else (e.g., Brockton).
Brockton has been a shithole since the late 60s. The path south for blacks from Boston over the last 50 years was Randolph to Brockton to Sharon. I’ll leave it as an exercise for the student as to which ethnic group was prevalent in higher than normal percentages in those places.
The most famous Brocktonians of the last 100 years are two boxers (the Brockton High mascot is “Boxers”).
Of course, I’m sure Steve knows that Herbert Warren Wind was born in Brockton!

The notion that any of this has anything to do with intelligence is, frankly, stupid.
You might get away with it for a generation or two. As Lincoln would say, you can fool all of the people some of the time, and some of the people all of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time.
More effort should have gone into looking into what the utopia of the Frankfurt School goals would look like in reality, rather than to rush headlong into realizing the plan just because it could be done for a time. Some limits to chutzpah, some noblesse oblige would have gone a long way. It has parallels with the USSR formation. Hey! Let's do it because we can! And then later, hang on, maybe this wasn't such a great idea.
My parents are Silents. Their worldview is that of the Kevin Bacon character at the end of Animal House.
All Is Well!
Pretty much!
I like this. Next generation but similarly useless politically. Conveys the same basic idea. World imploding around them but "this is fine".

Drudge has linked a nice fresh review of the upcoming 'Black Panther' movie: LINK
It's quite a piece of work. The tone is very similar to some of the initial reviews for the lady Ghostbusters movie, i.e. the (what appears to be whitish male) reviewer seems utterly terrified his praise of the movie will be found lacking in some way.
Here are some of his adjectives: rousing, thrilling, breathtaking, thrilling (again), thrillingly alive (that's a totally different word, haters), dazzling, vivid, and of course, vibrant.
I’ll bet $10 that Black Panther attendance drops like a stone after its opening weekend.
Again where year = 2016 AS republican_voter_count_2016
My SQL is probably sloppy, but
answer (TRUE, as Ezra correctly reports) = republican_voter_count_1984 > republican_voter_count_2016
by that query.
I am pessimistic about my future and those of my kind, but Ezra is wildly optimistic about his. Audacious Epigone's database queries don't show the "CHRISTIAN" constraint to be as important as Ezra assumes it is. The only Christian demographic that votes overwhelmingly R is Mormons. Mormons are bit an oddity.
Roman Catholics Christians (they are Christians too) have always leaned D, enough to cancel out Evangelicals. Even if Trump had lost (and that would have been by a small margin) the CHRISTIAN constraint doesn't explain what's going on.
They’re also not Christian.
Klein’s argument is interesting, here: Democracy is built on mutual toleration — both sides need to recognize the other side as legitimate. Republicans do not recognize the other side as legitimate. Therefore they are not legitimate.
In other words, we cannot tolerate Republicans because they are against toleration.
Of course, this is logically incoherent, but I’ve never seen a democrat care so much about that.
Sounds like she had a moment of clarity, then backed away from it, because her continued employment and/or relationships with her current circle of acquaintances would have been jeopardized. Would be amusing if the Polish magazine put her interview on Youtube.
No, we’re importing Central Americans.
The major difference between the Germans and previous ethnic groups Rome dealt with was that the Dominate failed to assimilate them properly while still letting them in, and it was a particularly dangerous situation because the Romans bordered them-meaning they were easily in proximity to their co-ethnics across the border. By this point, as I alluded to, non-Italian emperors had been the norm for quite some time, going back to the Principate (Trajan, Hadrian, Marcus Aurelius, Septimius Severus), not least because they proved a lot more willing to actually fight for the empire and embrace austere, disciplined old-time Roman virtues than the Italians. But the Romans eventually stopped, for a host of reasons, that strong cultural assimilation that served the empire so well over the centuries. Combine that with a majority of legionaries being German by the late 300s, and you had an ugly situation.
We’re committing a similar mistake. It’s not that Mexicans *cannot* assimilate to American culture-prior to the 1980s and 1990s, most did. We never limited emigration from Mexico, even before 1965, unlike Asia: many people don’t recognize that. And of course, there are Tejanos in Texas have lived there since before the German and Czech immigrants arrived. It’s that we’ve stopped that emphasis on assimilation, and for this ethnic group in particular, it is dangerous to not do that. Huntington and Kaus covered this a decade ago. Often forgotten is that Mexico, unlike most countries, can actually attempt to claim US territory, unlike China or Pakistan or Nigeria. And a lot of Mexicans, including several prominent politicians, still do not recognize the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo as legitimate. There are plenty of polls that make that quite clear. It’s fascinating that our media chooses never to cover that, and Mexican influence in our politics in the Southwest-which is often far, far more severe in degree than Russian or Chinese influence, not least because of the degree of collusion they get from our oligarchs and both political parties, who openly want the same kind of freedom and lack of accountability as their Mexican counterparts. No wonder our economic elite is enthusiastic about merging us further.
We’re also taking Central Americans that Mexico itself does not want-Mexico’s laws against illegal immigration are far harsher than ours, even when they decry ours and openly call for a porous border to the north. One might almost think that mass illegal immigration that the government does not control is against the host nation’s interests…
Diversity is probably the #1 problem. Diversity is a main factor in civil war. It takes leftists with enough bad wiring to hotwire for stupid to miss this. Bringing in foreign populations to serve autocratic regimes is the oldest trick in the book. If you don’t have enough division to practice divide and conquer, just import some.
Obviously, lots (more) will go wrong.
Commies’ problem is that they reject history in favor of their fantasies. So they missed the part where the Russians took control of the USSR and demoted the Jews and their coalition of mystery meat. Stuff like that is a lot easier to do in a totalitarian system without an annoying free press, oligarchs funding subversion, etc.
Jews are political enemies of Whites. Soft shoe dance doesn’t change that.
Miller’s like Kevin Kostner’s character in Dances With Wolves, or the black Ranger in Blackhawk Down.
And the mass psychosis of the diversity-worshiping left. The left seems most to blame. You don’t see people mass indoctrinated to worship oligarchs. You do see them mass indoctrinated to worship and import diversity.
I don’t find that stuff amazing. What I find amazing is the general Jewish ability to cloak Jewish National Socialism in leftist camouflage, even in their own minds.
Both.

Nope. It has nothing to do with intelligence, and nothing to do with fooling anyone. It has to do with controlling our thoughts and actions through indoctrination, psychological pressure, and verbal pheromones, in addition to presenting a false picture of the world and distracting us whenever we start pay attention to something important.
The notion that any of this has anything to do with intelligence is, frankly, stupid.

I didn’t read the Polish interview in full, but based on the snippet above the paywall, I think it’s possible the other articles reporting on it mis-reported her saying that some Germans are ready to move to Poland.
It is already very easy to get Schengen visas. In my experience, getting a Romanian one is spoken of as being much more difficult than a Schengen one. While I am not against that, sometimes the restrictionism is arbitrary or absurd, like when important academics and high tier management are denied visas.
but stands as the reason he could put down the reins of power once he did what he came to do.
I’m aware of the negative view of the general among many people who have had dealings with him. But messianic folks do tend to have, er, a large endowment of self esteem.
And as for Mattis as crazy monk?
Check out “Ramiro el monje” king of Aragón and his Bell of Huesca…
And self esteem is only going to carry you so far. Eventually you're gonna need people to trust you, which Petraeus doesn't have.
It’s an insult to intelligence. But everything – I mean everything – gets thrown under the bus in defense of the tribe.
I didn’t say Mattis wasn’t capable because he’s a round eye Musashi, but that his personality seems more akin to being a means to an end contra the driving force.

Here is her interview for euroislam.pl:

I would like this to be true; it isn't. As long as people like Tom Steyer and International Money Man Soros are around to fund anti-White movements, and the threat of Kamala Harris and Wall Street lawyer Eric Holder and the rest of the Obama/HRC racialists occupying the executive branch looms, the situation remains dangerous.
White males are neutered, too creepily fixated on Black dominated sports. White women suffer from extreme altruism, and seem willing to surrender their children to the Black and Brown tide.
If Western culture is to survive, White identitarianism needs to become a social and political force. But without the Nazi fetishism.
I would like this to be true; it isn’t.
I agree with you. Most white people in the United States are oblivious to the fact that their government is largely corrupt and in thrall to a foreign power. They are also incapable, by and large, of even considering the possibililty that the vast majority of the Jewish elite in the United States has interests that are not particularly patriotic or concerned with the historic American nation.
While the evidence is overwhelming that the Jewish elite is hostile to the historic American nation, advocating policies like massive third world immigration that are destroying our cohesion as a people and turning us into Babel, this subject is one that very few people are willing to even consider for fear of being called anti-Semitic.
And if whites were so aware and fighting back as whites they could never in a million years support and continue to elect and re-elect traitorous bastards like McCain, Obama, Clintons, Ryan, Graham, Bushes–add in any other rogue you choose to this list. I was just on a website the other day talking about the hero McCain and how he has made so many sacrifices to serve his country!!
No, there are stirrings that are occurring but the vast majority of Americans are comfortable being blue pilled and saluting the flag and believing that the cause of Israel is our own cause.
The Republic will not be resurrected by bravado or false claims of an enlightened electorate.
The greatest hurdle faced today to resurrect a functioning republic and the establishment of the rule of law is an out to lunch population of Americans who are blissfully ignorant that their nation is being destroyed while they sleep.
Where the blacks mostly concentrate in is mostly logistics where they can participate in theft and be lazy since most of their CO's and NCO"s are mostly black.
As for contractor personnel - it varies. Out here in CA at the USAF bases, contract workers tend to be lily white because they are the only ones who can pass a background security check.
The reason you find blacks flooding the VA is the same reason you find blacks loading up dialysis centers and diabetes/hypertension specialists. Because most have horrible life styles and neglect their bodies until they give out. Booze, drugs, fast food and drugs are part and parcel of the black life style.
Mexicans aren't much better.
VA staff demographics are very similar to the patient demographics.
When I read that name I briefly thought this was parody.
