A major part of left wing and feminine politics is the need and desire for power in this world. They have transferred the ancient desire to be prepared for the after-life to make this world central. And in this world it is political power that is the source of life's meaning and numinous power. So it is natural to expect they will stop at nothing to bring down their adversaries.

The way they gain power is they know the major factor motivating the masses is resentment. Harnesses that power and hate and you have the ticket to power.

I think there is a difference between groups behavior individual behavior. There is such a thing as a Bell curve. While individual can rise above the group norms , that is still no reason to ignore the fact that there are groups norms. As a group blacks are violent.

I have been told by black people already in the 1970's that their intention was to take down the USA. It was an idea based more on anger than on reason. I do not think they are thinking who would rebuild things if they would succeed.

I think if not the demand to accept Muslims, that England would have remained in in the EU. I think Britain is trying to protect itself

Maybe it should have been about religion.

Anthropology is not a real science.

race is biological and is the way nature begins to separate one species into two

Where is George Zimmerman when you need him?

When blacks get over a certain % things go downhill quickly. The same effect applies to Muslims. Below a certain % they are the best mannered. Then people think well of them. Then the % grows and jihad starts with the youth and the parents saying “we can’t control our children. They are doing these violent acts on their own.” Then the % grows and you have a Muslim country. This is a common thread of how they took over many countries.

Just shows what George Zimmerman was up against and why he had to act.

I know little about how politics works. I would be happy to see Trump as president and hope to see the USA get back to its traditional values. How any particular decision plays out in this I do not know. I hope it helps push Trump over the top.

I am pretty sure evolution did not stop but is still going on. Race is just the beginning stage of how nature separate one species into two or more.

If the goal is to save Western Civilization then it is important to focus on the principles involved, not on who is saying them. If S. Miller helps in this regard then he should be complimented. What people ought to do is focus on the prize–the presidency– because you can be assured that the Left is extremely focused on that. If the right will not concentrate to the same degree we are likely to lose everything. Civilization itself.

‘Yofe is the way the Russian would be said. If Hebrew it is יופי “yofe” “yo” would rhyme with “bow” and “fe” would be the same as “fee” as in “charging a fee.”

My family owned a good deal of property in Asbury Park NJ. I have seen this same kind of thing happen. When blacks move in it is time to move out.

Art at its best in to capture something transcendent in Nature. It is not to copy it, but to capture its essence. Schopenhauer went into this in and later the Kant Friesian school. Dr. Kelley Ross borrows some of Schopenhauer and Plato to build his thesis that art is to capture modes of necessity.

The idea is that the transcendent numinous reality has existence that depends not on the subject nor object. But it can be perceived by intention. [I do not know if that is how Dr Ross would put it.]

Thank you for that input. I do not see how that describes what he says about intention in his PhD thesis. [I mean there he uses it to solve ontological un- decidablity. ]

I hope Trump brings a court case against the girl for slander.

I did not understand her comment. Is she saying there is some connection between banks and racism? Or there is not? It seems to make no sense.

There was a kind of synergy between Reason and Revelation. This was based to a large degree on European Jew’s respect for Maimonides and the general Mediaeval approach which saw a strong connection between faith and reason. So there was plenty of motivation to see great good in STEM.

Thank you for that clarification. That is what I thought she was saying. That is she must be thinking like Trotsky.

Right. It sounds like a line of of George Orwell’s Newspeak.

But Do Thich did kill the king. That seems clear enough. Previous good deeds can not make up for that

Thank you for that clarification. It in fact sounds like a cheap trick.

Sports were more fun when they were about having fun.

Nationalism really comes down to a debate between Kant and Hegel. I am on the side of Kant in this, but I think Hegel also had some good points. I am not sure how to reconcile them. You can see the side of nationalism in Howard Bloom’s the Lucifer Principle. But the draw backs of the system in the USA was brought to print by Allen Bloom’s the closing of the American Mind.
But how to deal with this I do not know. It seems to me that Trump might be able to get things back on track.

The entire thesis of Allen Bloom is the crisis of the enlightenment, and that since the USA is the embodiment of the enlightenment this crises has come to a climax in the USA itself. The problems he outlined in various chapters were meant as illustrations of a deeper problem that one could not simply put a band-aid on. So to answer your question: nationalism in the USA is connected with the Constitution and its principles. So the drawback is that these principles must lead to a crisis by their very nature.

Many people were fooled. What was needed was a legitimate critique on Communism along the lines of Dr Michael Huemer or Bryan Caplan.

I think you could sum up the idea of Trump as nationalism while the idea of his opponents as internationalism.

There was no indictment because the head of the FBI does not want to die by suicide by two shots to the back of the head.

Thank you for finally pointing that out. I was too chicken to point out on this site that monarchy was not always a bed of roses. Or rather it always was a bed of roses together with the thorns. I did point out on Amerika Steven Brett’s blog that in Athens there was a clear distinction between a tyrant and a monarch or king. In Sparta you had kings with constitutional powers – and their powers were limited by the Ephors and the other king. When Athens removed its tyrants it was clear they were against tyrants, not kings. Still its democracy had problems because of lack of limits of power on the people. In any case the problems will not be solved by a return to monarchy but by constitutional government and the Law of God in the Bible.

If Trump does not win the election all this is is talk. Things will only get worse. The people that are aware of these problems should be aware of this and make sure they know who is counting the votes. Who votes makes no difference and whom people vote for is meaningless unless you know exactly who is counting the votes in your district.

I am very impressed with Trump. Perhaps it is because I spent time in NY and so I think I have some kind of awareness of his background. It seems he is simply saying we ought to put America first and that makes sense to me. Also he is unlikely to enlarge NATO nor antagonize Russia. That also seems like a good thing because it is certain that the Democrats are very much in favor of NATO expansion and thus likely to start WWIII. So I think that Trump is good for everyone–including Jewish people.

I do not understand why people do not support Trump. To me it seems he is just standing up for American nationalism. And I see that as a great thing –a kind of Constitutional Republic based on the ideas of Hobbes and John Locke and natural rights. To me it seems like the eight wonder of the world. Why anyone would not support it is beyond me.

I would hope that the elections themselves will not be rigged. Do people know who is counting the votes in their districts? After all it makes no difference whom people vote for, unless one knows who is counting the votes.

I think Fasolia is literally “beans.” Also I see a difference between Trump and others. What I mean is sometimes what people do when they get into office has something to do with what and who they were before they got into office. As Steven Dutch said in different words there are clear difference between the Left and Right in American politics. I have no reason to think that Trump will pursue different policies than the ones he has stated.

In NY the entire state would be mobilized to find the murderers of police men. Not just the police force. Everyone.

I quoted your comment on my blog because it seems to most concise and accurate description of the events.
Do you must have a background in law? I am amazed at your concise and clear description.

This is a comment I saw on Unz by someone who must have had background in law: He was on his back and his right arm was free and had started to move down toward his right pocket.
“Pinned,” in any event, is hardly dispositive.[relating to or bringing about the settlement of an issue or the disposition of property.] Not when you are wrestling with a 6’4″, 300 man who is still struggling against you and has a gun in his pocket.
Policy either will not be indicted or will be found not guilty if they are.

Again, you must have led a very sheltered life.

The author of that comment is anonymous but he clearly has a background in law because of his use of dispositive. Plus his amazingly concise use of words.

I put the link to one of my blogs on the side. I am not sure if the owner of this site will publish it. He might be interested more in sites along the general nature of Unz. Mine is a little different.

I do not think there is any such thing as a person being male becoming female or visa versa. The reason is that the sex is written in every DNA molecule in the body.

The problem I think started a long time ago when I heard a black person in LA tell me that they were planning on destroying the USA. No all are like that I know. But there are enough to make a difference.

I have seen this problem and I think I saw it on some blog somewhere. The intellectual sophisticated apparatus is on the left. They hijacked Hegel. And the Nazis did not help much. And the intellectual force on the right is weak. And it also was not very helpful that the Left infiltrated the universities. This is a serious problem Not just for the right but even for people in the middle.
The best answer to all this for me was simply to point out the school of thought of Kelley Ross based on Kant and Schopenhauer and Fries. But this advice has gone ignored. maybe people think it is too mystical. I am really not sure.It is certain that Philosophy departments ignore the Kant Friesian School. Surprising enough the only ones that took this school seriously were the Soviets for some reason I still have not figured out.

Ayn Rand also thought the Catholics had a kind of kinship with communism. I thought she was exaggerating but today it seems to me she was right.

White Christians are altruistic. This comes from a combination of DNA, Bible, and Greek and Roman heritage. This good will can be misdirected.

Fries is mainly important because of immediate non intuitive knowledge. He helps to formulate a Kantian kind of answer to how we know stuff and also to unity of consciousness. By himself he would not be very important but together with Schopenhauer, Jung, Popper it is possible to formulate a sophisticated kind of Kantian system of equal merit and even surpassing Hegel. That is why this ought to be important to the kind of people that comment on Unz. see this web site of Dr Kelley Ross: http://www.friesian.com/school.htm

They thought it was safer that to shoot it out with the terrorist. They made the right decision.

Good point. However common sense often is not so common and needs some kind of background to back it up. I find the school of thought of Kelley Ross does that well.

You would probably prefer the intuitionsit school of GE Moore and Dr Michael Huemer because of your wanting a common sense approach. I have reason to think though that Kant and Fries are deeper but not all that different.

If this was NYC under Giuliani, none of this would have happened. Stop and frisk. And he suppoted the police all the way.

I have no idea why the west opposes Russia in Syria and to me it makes no sense.I think I heard that Putin was surprised that the USA would be helping ISIS. This to me is also puzzling.

I saw an article in Haaretz [a leftist newspaper] that said walls do not work. That was before the wall keeping out terrorists was built. After it was built even only about a forth the difference in terrorist incidences was very noticeable. The amount of bombs going off in areas and in malls was reduced greatly. I learned then that people can write clever editorials that sound good but do not correspond to reality.

That is a perfect term for it “to bait Russia.” That is exactly what NATO is doing. What is the point of provoking Russia? –especially when they are doing nothing wrong disturbers me.

What Russia is doing in Syria should be praised and supported. That seems clear enough. How the different aspects of Russia and USA Technology and military strategy are not is all that relevant. There is a legitimate government in Syria.

I think Nixon was definitely effective in restoring law and order.

Al Gahazi had some good points but I think that the anti rationalist approach was not very fruitful.

Thank you for you reply. I guess I need to learn more about Al Ghazali.

What happens when you have a showdown with nature, nature wins. Nature has been separating species by means of race as Darwin noticed with finches. All that is happening is nature is asserting her will.

Thank you anyway. I am happy to learn that Ghazali was a deeper thinker than I had realized. And thank you for your blessing. May God bless you and your family. P.S. I am also amazed at the knowledge of Smoothie about military matters. It is very instructive to hear what he has to say about these areas.

I was not happy with some aspects of Giuliani. No one is perfect. Everyone has some blind spot. But he turned NY City from a crime ridden mess into one of the best and safest cites in the world. One important way he did this was by supporting the police always. Not that NY police are always the nicest. But that did not matter to Giuliani. He supported them no matter what. This is something for all Americans to learn from.

That is a good point. I probably exaggerated. As I recall support of the police was always the starting point of Giuliani. But I think in one case there was evidence of the police over stepping the line and then he backed down. But I think it could be said that he was in fact walking in the happy medium.

There has been a consistent battle of blacks and their SJW against white people for a very long time way before anyone in the white world noticed. This was based to a large degree on the idea that people from N. Africa have a certain kind of trait–assumed superiority that is unearned.

Thank you for sticking up for Giuliani and me. That was my impression also that if evidence came in that the police were wrong then they were wrong and that was that. But the starting point of Giuliani was that the police were right and justified

Ur comments on this thread I find amazingly instructive– [and Tahla’s also]. Thanks

I think Russia wanted influence over there since the time of the czars and this desire was thwarted and stopped by Britain. To me it seems best to let Russia have a free hand over there. Make some order out of chaos.

I am not very happy with Islam. I think that it the direct cause of all these kinds of attacks. And I think it ought to be banned. It definitely encourages this type of thing. When Muslims kill in the name of Islam, they are obeying their religion. In fact, it is their only guarantee to go to heaven. In fact, one could be a bad person all his life, play around, drink alcohol etc, and yet on the last day go out by killing Jews and Christians this would guarantee place in the highest heaven. What better way to go? People in Europe during the Middle Ages had much more accurate idea of what Islam is about and considered it as something entirely evil.

Thank you for pointing out the place of that verse. I had forgotten exactly where it was located.

In the meantime I noticed the mainstream media says the solution “to show Muslims more love.” I am not kidding. I think the media has adopted a policy of see no evil hear no evil when it comes to Islam. And I admit I had a side to say they were right for many years,.. until experience after experience in along row of bad experiences with them trying to kill me convinced me that they are really not nice people.

Originally for Christians baptism was the sole requirement to go to heaven (eventually). The trouble was purgatory. This was the reason baptism was delayed until right before death as with Constantine. The sacraments were to absolve from sin along with repentance in order to avoid purgatory.

I am very unhappy with liberals and see them as very destructive towards Torah values and objective morality. The fact that she is Jewish does not help in the slightest since her view oppose the Law of Moses. In the Torah you will find that Jewish people do not get a pass when they transgress the law of God.

amazing insightful comment

Baptism was for heaven. That was a guarantee. Everything else was to get out of Purgatory. Christians today do not know this because the Protestants denied the existence of Purgatory

I agree with that. I saw a similar thing in NY. It is scary to imagine what they would do with a nuclear weapon.

That is from Rome

What do you call “white?” If you include Jewish people from Eastern Europe and Russian people, then that is 100% of progress. But if you do not include Jews and Slavs from Russia then a lot would be lost.

After the Arab conquest of the Middle East, Arab blood got mixed up with everyone in those areas. That happened even in Greece and Spain. The original Greeks were blond hair blue eyes as we see in Homer and in all Roman and Greek histories from that period. The Persians were not related to Arabs but got mixed up after the Arabs conquered that region.
India was settled by Persians who became the upper brahman class and made their discoveries.
Algebra needless to say was well known to Euclid and Diophantus and in India.

Thank you for your comment. To answer your question as to what my source is:

“A study of mtDNA-haplogroup frequencies in southwestern and central Asia reported that the Brahui gene pool was more similar to that of Indo-Iranian speakers from southwest Asia than to that of Dravidian populations of India” (Quintana-Murci et al. 2004)

See this link: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1380230/?tool=pubmed

I should mention that this is just one article but a lot of research has been done in this area in which the mtDNA supports the conclusion.

The signature of low-frequency western Eurasian mtDNA lineages in India was interpreted (Kivisild et al. 1999) to support the hypothesis that Dravidian farmers arrived in India from the Middle East (Renfrew 1996)

” Jews can thank the German speaking educational system for their contributions.” So? I agree with that. Plus the USA universities also. I am grateful. What more can I say?

I was in fact wondering about this. Aren’t human evolving in different directions?

The trouble is that it seems likely that B. Clinton did order sticks on Serbia to distract attention from Monica. It seems Hillary’s making money off of national secrets was probably not done with a view to protect national security

I have thought that the Left will use violence to stop Trump because of two reasons. (1) Power is their religion. That is,– they do not have transcendental Biblical traditional religious values. Thus they bring to politics all the fervor you would normally find in religious fanatics. (2) I have some interest in Marxism, and am aware of some of its doctrines. See some Marxist writings and you too will see that the tendency is to advocate violence. Plus, I saw that these kinds of books were being taught even in the humanities and social studies departments of good universities that I was in like Polytechnic in NY. So in terms of that I have to agree with the previous comment.

That is a good point. It seems clear that only Trump understands the importance of not provoking the Russians

My Dad bought for me the Magic Flute done by the NY Philharmonic. Later I got to see some scores of the other operas by Mozart. I am impressed with Mozart. I wish people would in fact produce his stuff on a larger scale.

Violence is more characteristic of the Left and of Islam. The Right as a rule just wants safe neighborhoods. The Left bases its philosophical doctrines on non rationalist paradigms. Thus, like Islam, they have no means of taking power except by violence. Rational argument does not work for them.

I think he knows how to get competent people.

Are the refugees “fleeing from terrorism” or fleeing towards terrorism?

The Left really does not like the Second Amendment. I am not sure why this is? Maybe because it was designed to protect the American people from the American government. We see in the Federalist papers the importance of limiting the government. [The 2nd amendment was made as a limit on government.] I think since the lefts sees government as the greatest good and people as worthless thus the 2nd amendment must bother them.

I wanted to mention that I think limited government was foremost in the minds of the founding fathers as the sole way to guarantee freedom.
They must have taken note that Sparta considered themselves free even though they were not a democracy. {See Herodotus.} The reason is the government was limited by the fact that each of the two kings and the Ephors limited the power of the other.

A pleasant surprise that justice prevailed.

Bring back Throne and Altar. Problem solved. What I mean is the loss of authority of kings and the church seems to have brought about a drop too much of mob rule. Mob rule does not seem to me to much of an improvement over a monarchy together with the Catholic Church. [Not that I am Christian. But I can see reality.]

That seems like having the cat guard the mice. Or hiring Bonnie and Clyde as security guards for bank. And in the meantime training them in security procedure so they will be more effective at what they do. Perfect.

My impression is this is a direct result of Islam. I do not think this is work place violence. That is I mean to say it is the result of a certain kind of social meme that gets incorporated inside a persons personality at a certain age. If the social meme is bad, it will result in bad deeds regardless of the inherent disposition of the person. I have seen this a lot. People can start out with good or bad dispositions but if they are taught an evil belief system the belief system will take over.

Right about that. It was a group that was made to be anti police right from the beginning.

My advice for the French: Throne and Altar.[ Not that I am so happy with the Catholics nowadays. But anything that brings to the Law of Moses is good as far as I am concerned.] The mob Republic rule thing [based on Rousseau] has gotten too out of hand. Even a change to John Locke’s kind of democracy would not help. Better Throne and Altar, straight and simple.

Trump does not see much advantage in provoking WWIII with the Russians. I think that is a good thing. Of course, NATO would be out of work. But they have not had anything useful to do anyway for 25 years

The GOP in the past was not much better than the Democrats. But now that seems not all that relevant, now that Trump is an option. It would seem now to spend time and effort to make sure the elections are not rigged.

I would not have been able to guess. But now I can see the point. That White people dare and test the limits. Nice point. I can see that this is an important issue because it shows where progress comes from

I think we would have gone back to the moon, at least to set up a base for Mars launches. That is at least what one of Apollo 11’s crew thought (Collins). My learning partner thought we stopped it because NASA was turning into an outreach program for minorities, and their incompetence was causing disasters, so NASA simply decided to scrub future missions.

I can tell you by personal experience that Trump talks like a typical New Yorker. Straight to the point with zero tolerance for nonsense and muddy thinking.

I suggest that genetics and DNA have a lot to do with violence and crime. Plus I think the social meme also does. That is if a person believes in some vile evil doctrines this will affect their behavior even if they have great genes. And visa versa. Even a great doctrine can be messed up by bad genes.
Once a Protestant pastor in Jerusalem told me he thought the main cause of terrorism is Islam. This was a surprise tome because before that I thought it had something to do with genetics. Now I would say that perhaps there are both factors involved. [I still see a vast influence of genes in many areas.]
