    Transcript from iSteve commenter Change That Matters:
  • @Clifford Brown
    One real takeaway from this current moment is to think back on other revolutionary moments in history and realize that most people likely had no idea what was going on. The French Revolution, the Russian Revolution, the Sixties. It is quite possible that most people in those historic tumults were just as hysterical and misinformed as this woman. It is especially interesting to think back to the Sixties and realize that most hippies and protesters were just conforming to social norms of their peers.

    The percentage of people who are politically actualized and informed is very slim. Few people have the intelligence, the critical thinking skills (especially in analyzing media) and most importantly THE WILL to push back on the overarching political and social narratives. Most people just conform and that might be a good thing. In a healthy society, the only way it functions is if most people conform in an unthinking manner.

  • The 1967 film The Graduate was a landmark in Jewish cultural subversion (see also Edmund Connelly’s treatment).

    This was another very good article by Brenton Sanderson. It reveals the intersectionality of various anti-White, Jewish-lead intellectual movements with subsequent (and subversive) Hollywood entertainment. This kosher cross-pollination has contributed mightily to the decline of civility, cohesion, and the White family in America.

    Radical Jewish intellectuals connected to the Frankfurt School inspired ferocious, young, anti-war Leftist Jews such as Mark Rudd (as well as Abbie Hoffman and Jerry Rubin) throughout the 60s. These so-called 'student idealists' raged explosively against the America's (anti-communist) Vietnam War yet they never made a peep about Israeli racism or Israeli aggression which Washington also financed during this time. These Jewish double-standards vis-a-vis Israel continue.

    'The Graduate' was perhaps the first modern American movie I witnessed that featured a short, unattractive Jewish man in a romantic role that was clearly written for (and would normally feature) a tall, handsome gentile. I knew then that, in real life, aimless young dorks that looked like Dustin Hoffman didn't generally ride off in the sunset with a gorgeous shika like Kathryn Ross. Ridiculous. Yet the casting (and symbolism) in 'The Graduate' turned out to be apt and timely. Jewish power in American life was reaching full maturity during the 60s. Few knew it at the time. Countless others are still totally unaware.

    But the 60s was a watershed era for the Jews. How fitting that young Dustin Hoffman got to bang two lovely shiksas; in this case, a suburban mother and her virginal daughter.

    I was just a teenager when I saw 'The Graduate', but I couldn't help by notice the clear, anti-Christian theme that permeated this unpleasant film. 'How could others not notice it', I wondered.

    How is that so many other non-Jewish Whites were captivated by this subversive movie featuring an homely, young Jewish male in a destructive romance with a Christian mother and daughter?
    The story was a bit unbelievable. And the absurd casting made it even more so. Yet countless American apparently loved 'The Graduate' and were undisturbed by its story and message. Go figure. Their positive reactions I still find mysterious.

    I suspect many viewers of this film must have been hip to the Jewish angles within it. Yet when it comes to Jews, countless Americans have personal 'blinders' on at all times. These submissive goys may subconsciously wish to deny to themselves all potential thoughts that might be considered 'anti-Semitic'. So they refuse to see what's in front of their nose.

    Ironically, it's possible the baby-boomers who loved 'The Graduate' are today's parents of the social justice warriors who are toppling statues of Christopher Columbus and Robert E. Lee. Strange irony.

    A little OT, but since everything on planet earth is now about race... in a sense, nothing is OT.

    If we need to "have a conversation about race," then let it at least be an intelligent one. (yes, and maybe monkeys will fly out of my ass.)

    But here goes nothin'.

    A long while back, the rather rational black music magazine The Source did one of those list-bits where they made a list of The Greatest Top 100 Albums Of Whatever.

    Being a black-music magazine, it rather understandably skewed towards black music, as you would reasonably expect. But the list was also reasonably fair to white musicians, and included a healthy share of the usual suspects.

    But here's where it gets interesting. Outside of Lester Bangs, Robert Christgau, and Hanif Abdurraqib, most pop music criticism doesn't have much insight or integrity. But The Source, in their list, said something actually insightful and interesting.

    This is what they said: as part of their Top 100, they named the great Talking Heads record "Remain In Light." But their commentary was insightful and true: they said, Just as only Nixon could go to China, it needed an incredibly uptight avant-garde white intellectual like David Byrne to persuade a white audience that black musical expressions like Afro-funk were actually, genuinely serious artistic endeavors. Which was true, because at the time, white avant artists only took themselves seriously, and treated black artists patronizingly as amusingly funky background characters on Sesame Street.

    So to admit that, as a serious observation, but not admit a flood of nonsense that wishes to be associated with it, is to start a first chapter in actual honest "conversation" about race.

    What America has is WASP overlordship. The verb is present tense, and rightly so. WASP culture is finalized, is completed only with the successful Puritan Revolution, which stamps Modern English culture permanently. Anglo-Saxon Puritanism was a Judaizing heresy, Archetypal WASP Oliver Cromwell made that manifest in non-theological terms by making alliance with Jewish bankers. Jews would bankroll WASP Empire, and Jews would be allowed back into England legally - with special rights and privileges denied to the vast majority of natives of the British Isles.

    WASP rule has always been bad, often horrifically so, for the vast majority of whites being ruled. That is the reason that those with an ability to leave did so. What WASP Elites have always overseen is a type of Ponzi scheme. If you get toward the top, it seems great. And even if you are near the bottom, you ca look down and know that at least you aren't Irish Catholic Scottish Highland - they deserve being so treated.

And to sanction the United States to do one of two things. The first is give us our own land here, so we can go in, set up our own government and the whole nine yards.”

    Slavery–importing black people here–was a grievous mistake. Black people have indicated that they do not want to meet white norms of behavior and take particular offense at being policed by whites. Ok, then separate nations.

    To be honest I don't think Jack D is even serving his tribe, in that the white genocide project as pushed by the likes of BLS and Potok is not productive for the Jewish people. Yes, his tribe has power now but it is tenuous and being squandered. Both among their host, white people, but also geopolitically.

    For some reason the Jews in power and their lower-level Jewish supporters have declared non-Jewish white people as a kind of Amalek to be obliterated from the earth. This is odd, because from the perspective of non-whites, Jews are just a kind of pernicious white people. My guess is that when this plan was hatched and gained currency, it was from Jews living in a whitopia (Europe, white parts of the US) where the key problem was that the goyim weren't kneeling and washing Jewish feet as they walked by, and the problems that would come from weakened white civilization and non-white influx weren't manifest.

    Now they have come this far, the anti-white ideas have become quite entrenched as the propaganda they generated became a brainwashing of their own people too. Much like young Jews of the early twentieth century saw Jewishness and socialism/Communism as synonymous (though it is much less that way now).

    The unfortunate reality of such a plan is that a dumbed down country becomes less competent as a country, and less powerful (not to mention less enjoyable to live in). The intelligent non-whites who are encouraged to invade just see the white majority country as something to exploit and bleed for their own gain (and less intelligent relatives).

    The double-edged sword of chutzpah is that yes, it allows trying things that have not been tried before and some of them work. However, when typical engineering-type questions aren't asked, e.g. "What is the optimum? What is our objective, what are we really trying to accomplish here? Has it worked in microcosm in any real world examples, and lets look at all of those and not just the cherry-picked examples we can find. And if we achieve it, are there any downsides of that situation? How bad are those downsides? Is this new situation any better than the old situation?" there is a seed of its own destruction baked into the cake.

    I am not sure exactly what Ron's motivations are but even I can see that Jewish power is currently used for not only a wanton, evil purpose but also all it will achieve is the powerful feeling of a boot stamping on a white face, for a time, and then less power and siginificant risk.

    Unfortunately IRL one can't even have a conversation with most (any?) Jews about Jewish power and its aims and objectives. They don't permit discussion let alone critique in my experience, so it's hard to influence. They would rather not realize what you actually know and engage in discussion, instead preferring to think that the party line about there being no Jewish power, these are bad thoughts, where did you get that incorrect information from, will make any difference to your conclusions. (It's not just Jews though in life, who get on a self-destructive path and won't listen to reason. It's more the rule than the exception.)

    It's kind of odd, because although their people seem to have mostly a religious/legal way of operating, they have a number of top flight scientists among them (see the Manhattan project). But probably most of them are not very observant religiously, i.e. they are more atheistic, like Feynman (to my memory). These scientists and engineers don't appear to have had a lot of influence in the rest of the policy-making.

    Maybe part of the problem is that the direction of the propaganda is within the propaganda organs themselves, where asking the question I've posed are less important. e.g. if you can make people believe something, if you can fool a lot of people, you have succeeded. So then you don't ask such engineering question because they are irrelevant to say, creating a movie that sells.

    Though if you watch Cosmos by Sagan, you will notice that here and there he injects aspects of (1980 era) anti-white orthodoxy into it. So here you have an example of a Jew who is very familiar with science pushing a similar line. To be fair though, he gives respect where it is due, and in exalting the heroes of science, probably did not foresee the days when those scientists would be toppled from their pedestals.

    It is not new however, and it hasn't just been statues. For example, Lavoisier's beheading in the French Revolution. What a reprehensible thing to do to the literal father of chemistry, the creator of the periodic table. On the subject of the French Revolution, I find this interesting:

It refuses to follow those of the early abolitionists, that all the barbarities in Africa are to be traced to the effects of a foreign slave trade, because travelers continually speak of similar barbarities existing in regions to which the slave trade has not penetrated. Captain Colomb has written a well-argued chapter on this matter, in his recent volume. On the other hand, the opinion of the present day repudiates the belief that the negro is an extremely inferior being, because there are notorious instances of negroes possessing high intelligence and culture, some of whom acquire large fortunes in commerce, and others become considerable men in other walks of life. The truth appears to be that individuals of the mental caliber I have just described are much more exceptional in the negro than in the Anglo-Saxon race, and that average negroes possess too little intellect, self-reliance, and self-control to make it possible for them to sustain the burden of any respectable form of civilization without a large measure of external guidance and support.

    Absolutely nothing has changed in the last 150 years (nor will it for the next 150). This is exactly the effect you would see when two races have different group means in intelligence, which leads to very large differences at the tails (and we see the exact same effect in whites vs. Ashkenazi Jews).

    This would take us too far, but....

    1. Jews are very prominent in intellectual professions in past, say, 150+ years. Before that, modern Western culture- if we disregard old Greeks- has been created almost exclusively by white Gentiles from, say, 1400 on. No Jews there.

    2. Steve & others insist on IQ, but, as I've said a few times before, I don't think this is enough. Motivation, originality, creativity,... are correlated with IQ, but not reducible to it. Then, there are, I am certain, different types of intelligence; also, almost super-human intellectual genius can create something big, but far less than, what I would call, small genius (I took that term from Hans Eysenck). British polymath Thomas Young is doubtless stellar genius in comparison with Darwin or James Watson. Yet- they are immensely more important than Young if we take into account their legacy in sciences. And- they're dumbos in comparison with Young.

    3. Jewish prominence in many "visible" fields is certainly a combination of giftedness, nepotism, dominant cultural climate & hard work. In fields like journalism, literature, most money making, media, soft sciences, arts, politics, ordinary academic positions, popular culture .... it is not high IQ that would matter much. It is not simply ethnic nepotism, but some combination of ethic, education, IQ, motivation, hard work, focus, luck, ... So, I would not say that Slim, Zuckerberg, Charles Murray, Steven Pinker, ... are fascinating examples of impressive IQ. They may be important in their respective fields, but geniuses (whatever that means)- they are not.

    4. that leaves us with purer & more common sense "high intelligence" areas of exact sciences, engineering & a few other fields. It is evident that Jewish contribution in these fields is over-represented; has virtually nothing to do with ethnic nepotism & is higher than Jewish presence in urban areas where such things flourish. My opinion is that it was Jewish historical luck that their creative period coincided with growth in most important areas in the wealthiest & most scientifically progressive countries in the world in past 7 decades (Anglosphere). Now, this is all is falling down. Jews had exhausted themselves significantly- which is natural. For instance, Germany had dominated mathematics from, say, 1770 to 1930 (Gentile German-speaking individuals), with France close second and England distant third. Now, German mathematics is 3rd rate. How so? Exhaustion of creativity.

    Now, in the US, the best young science achievers, as far as I can see, are ethnic Asians, mostly Chinese and Indians. Whites, including Jews, are present, but visibly lag behind.

    The creative period in that area has mostly passed, and this has not much to do with tail ends of IQ.

    Deep down, this anger (and that's what it really is - anger, which is why it turns to violence) comes from two things (and both are necessary):

    1. A realization that you are part of history's losing tribe. Maybe your ancestors had "it" at one time (true in the case of Asians and Arabs, imaginary in the case of blacks), but at some point they lost the thread and everything that you see around you is mostly the product of another (the white) race. You can't really do anything about that past except cry sour grapes. All those dead white guys whose names are carved into stone who are supposedly the heroes that conquered diseases, etc. - they weren't so hot anyway.

    2. A feeling that your tribe is now in the ascendancy. True losers are cowed and don't dare raise their heads or voices but you sense that the other tribe is fading and that now is the time to turn the tables and put your tribe on top and make up for all the past humiliations. The winning tribe always defaces the gods of the losers. This is as old as Abraham smashing the idols of Baal.

    Are there deluded whites who are in the camp of the enemy? Certainly yes, a lot of them. But this is being driven by non-white (mainly black) anger and the whites are just hitching their wagon to this anger because they have their own reasons to be angry about the way life has turned out for them.

    Or in some cases (Hollywood stars) they don't but they want to be seen as fashionably Leftist - Wolfe's "Radical Chic".

    I agree, Jack, that blacks feel in ascendency at the moment; I would say they feel invulnerable to punishment and even rebuke, and are taking advantage of the situation. Whether they believe it to be a permanent one is open to question: it’s enough that they can loot and yell for the present. The future doesn’t seem to loom large in their calculations.

    I disagree that blacks are “angry” or embarrassed at their lack of cultural achievement. Regardless of the heroic myths we’re all supposed to bow to every February, blacks in my experience are not very motivated by a consciousness of achievement, but just of “being.” Their homegrown heroes are mostly people with a freakish natural ability (like athletic performance, or musical ability). Whites admire a Michael Jordan for his discipline and work ethic. Most blacks admire him for his display of talent on the court.

    My take on the current ructions is that it’s some kind of result of the breakdown of a cherished myth that supported American democracy, especially during the Cold War. That’s the myth of equality. In the 1960s (the high water mark of American optimism) Western societies were transformed into laboratories for affirming the value of universal equality. These experiments have been in effect for 50 years; they have run their course, and a verdict has been rendered regarding the equality hypothesis.

    The optimistic hopes were shown to be wrong, (however worthwhile it may have been to hold them and run the societal experiments). This realization is the great impasse of our day, which is dividing Western societies into those who accept the verdict, and those who have no choice but to embrace their faith in the myth with greater fervor. For the latter, the rational explosion of the myth is driving some mad, driving some to violence and apocalypticism, creating an umbrella of denial over public policy. We as a society cannot stand having the question answered—even being reminded that we were dealing with questions, not assertions/truths, to begin with.

    The myth of human equality became a sort of religion for a lot of educated Americans who’d drifted away from real religion, I think. Paradise was supposed to arrive on Earth when all those societal barriers to full participation by minorities and women came down. But the barriers tumbled, and a Paradise never arrived. Confronted with evidence of the death of their god, they’ve doubled down on belief-hence ‘systemic racism.’ It’s like a millenarian cult: doomsday didn’t arrive on schedule?

    "Either they explicitly stated that races were unequal, or they considered inequality so obvious that it didn’t need saying."

    Interestingly, Galton wrote in 1873:

    "The opinion of the public on the real worth of the Negro race has halted between the extreme views which have been long and loudly proclaimed. It refuses to follow those of the early abolitionists, that all the barbarities in Africa are to be traced to the effects of a foreign slave trade, because travelers continually speak of similar barbarities existing in regions to which the slave trade has not penetrated. Captain Colomb has written a well-argued chapter on this matter, in his recent volume. On the other hand, the opinion of the present day repudiates the belief that the negro is an extremely inferior being, because there are notorious instances of negroes possessing high intelligence and culture, some of whom acquire large fortunes in commerce, and others become considerable men in other walks of life. The truth appears to be that individuals of the mental caliber I have just described are much more exceptional in the negro than in the Anglo-Saxon race, and that average negroes possess too little intellect, self-reliance, and self-control to make it possible for them to sustain the burden of any respectable form of civilization without a large measure of external guidance and support.

    Not true. Some radical liberals were racial egalitarians as far back as the late 1700's. In America, racial egalitarian sentiment exploded in the 1820's, with the Second Great Awakening and the rise of radical abolitionism. Abolitionist leader William Lloyd Garrison advocated the idea that all of the problems of blacks were caused by whites and there was no difference at all between races. He was tremendously popular and influential. There was a racialist backlash, triggered by Darwin's theories and black migration north in the late 1800's. Many people don't realize that before that, racial egalitarianism was widely supported by middle class Northern WASP Americans. We are fighting a longer, more dynamic war than many realize.

    I encourage people to study the history of the abolitionist movement, New England intellectuals and the Puritan culture going back to 1400's England. You will learn a lot about where the Great Derangement comes form.

    I too am brainwashed by the white man’s juju of math and logic, so I have to tread lightly in these comments for fear of causing offense… we seem to be being subjected to a weird pantomime of our own culture being played back at us by minorities who are interpreting what we do as mainly being merely occupying a place. So, for example, there is no meaningful distinction in terms of the quality of output between a black violinist or a white violinist and therefore we should default to giving the spot to the black violinist. Once they occupy that spot, all of the good things that come from being a violinist are thereby possessed by the black person in virtue of having taken up the role. We see this logic being promoted in every space where a white person can excel, viz. just put a black person in that same space and they too will excel. Yet it very rarely actually plays out that way without everyone tacitly agreeing to never mention that the black person isn’t very good at what they are trying to do. Seeing this over and over in my adult life has led me to believe that black people do not see or hear the extra layer of meaning that we see and hear and that they tend to really just be seeing or understanding a fraction of what is happening. In short, just being in a space that was occupied by a white person seems to suffice as success for them. They don’t ever seem to “get it” when it comes to the deeper conversations about what we are actually trying to do. They mimic but don’t think.

    I know that sounds awful but the cognitive dissonance of being forced to submit to these morons lately is starting to make me think that we need to more assertively explain what race realism is in mass media so that people understand why some people succeed and others fail in reality. Being more assertive about that topic will of course hurt a lot of young people’s feelings because they have never been exposed to it, which is unfortunate, but we cannot allow ourselves to be governed in this way forever.

    Indeed it does, as long as the pay is the same as the white person received for that position, regardless of the quality and quantity of the work produced by the black person. Any criticism of the quality and quantity of their work is condemned as racism at first, then any undeniable shortcomings are excused as "the residual effects of slavery," etc., along with demands for special consideration, additional training or lower standards. Their success lies in getting what the white person has even though they know full well they haven't earned it --- those are the rules they play by.

    The most powerful Muslim on the planet is George IslamoSoros. Weakening the United States to make it vulnerable to Jihad is part of his concealed Islamic agenda. His programs to import rape-ugees to Europe is a conspiracy to weaken European nations for eventual forced conversion to Islam

    Despite his ancestry, it is proven & indisputable fact that George IslamoSoros is not a practicing Jew. He has jettisoned that faith. He is so anti-Semitic the Jewish people of the Jewish Nation openly warn the world… The IslamoSoros hates Jews and seeks their extermination. (1)

    Financing tied to billionaire activist George Soros is a common yet largely under-reported theme among organizations that lead or support the anti-Semitic Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) campaign attempting to delegitimize the Jewish state.

    In January, Israel released a list of 20 BDS-supporting organizations whose members will be banned from entering Israel due to their BDS activism, prominently featuring six American groups. At least four of the six BDS-promoting U.S. groups receive funding tied to Soros. Scores of other U.S. organizations that support the BDS movement are financed by Soros.

    Useful idiots of Semitic ancestry (a.k.a. Dhimmis) misrepresent Hungary’s position as anti-Jewish, when it is not. Orban’s transgression is refusal to accept Muslim rape-ugees that would destabilize his nation. Accurate understanding of the Muslim threat is the #1 fear of the IslamoSoros, so he sends his Dhimmi minions out to smear and discredit the nation that has seen through his machinations.
    ____

    The author is correct that George IslamoSoros is the key figure in a number of conspiracies. Alas, he has been victimised by disinformation psyops that misrepresent these conspiracies as Jewish.

    witness the Five Dancing Shlomos cavorting and filming themselves in New Jersey as the twin towers went down.

    Except that this never happened. It was fabricated to deceive.

    People on the ground report the TRUTH. Muslims in New Jersey were dancing and celebrating the attack on the Twin Towers (2)

    more than two dozen interviews conducted since Nov. 25, found Trump’s broad assertion that thousands of people cheered to be baseless. At the same time, the inquiry provides the first credible indication of at least two modest celebrations, as described by on-the-record sources who say they witnessed the behavior.

    “When I saw they were happy, I was pissed,” said Ron Knight, 56, a Tonnele Avenue resident who said he heard cries of “Allahu Akbar” as he shouldered his way through a crowd of 15 to 20 people on John F. Kennedy Boulevard that morning.

    The conspiracies are very real, but the end goal is Jihad. Attempting to derail clandestine operations of The IslamoSoros require understanding his true goals. Be wary, attempts to pit Infidels against each other are part of The IslamoSoros conspiracy.

    Perverse Incentives Created Our Terrible Criminal Justice System

    Jason Brennan and Chris W. Surprenant • July 14, 2020 • 2 Comments
    The U.S. criminal justice system is worse than you think. Horrific incidents like the recent video of a Minneapolis police office kneeling on the neck of George Floyd happen more often than most people believe. Almost daily, we see police officers beating or shooting subdued citizens, judges or prosecutors imposing unreasonable punishments, or county sheriffs seizing cash and goods from people doing nothing more than driving on the interstate. You can watch cops play murderous games of Simon Says with civilians. Police are rarely punished for excessive force. Prisoners who serve their time return to society as second-class citizens who often cannot vote and have little hope of securing good long-term employment.



    The so-called Land of the Free is the Land of the Imprisoned. In 2018, the U.S. imprisoned approximately 2.3 million people, about 1 in 100 adults. The United States has 5% of the world’s population but 25% of the world’s known prison population. 27% of all people incarcerated in the United States, including 60% of all females incarcerated, have not been convicted of a crime. An additional 4.6 million people—2% of the population—are under state control through probation or parole. Over 7 million people, or nearly 2.5% of the population of the United States, are under some form of “carceral supervision”—that is, incarcerated, on parole, or on probation.[1] Only 11 U.S. states incarcerate citizens at a lower rate than the Russian Federation.[2] 35 U.S. states, including overwhelmingly white states like Wyoming and Montana, put people in prison at a higher rate than repressive, authoritarian Cuba.[3]

    It wasn’t always like this. As late as 1971, the U.S. incarceration rate was only about 150 per 100,000 people—higher than other OECD countries, but within the same cluster. Since then, it’s exploded to over 700 per 100,000. It’s hard to find reliable data on police violence over time, but what data we do have suggests they are far more violent than before. For instance, in 1981, for example, SWAT teams were deployed about 5,000 times across the United States, mostly to respond to violent crime. By 2015, no-knock SWAT teams were deployed about 100 times per day; 93% were for non-violent drug arrests and searches.[4]

    How did we get here? What do we do about it?

    Three Incomplete/Mistaken Theories

    People of different background ideologies come ready to give the same answers they give everywhere else. Progressives want to blame racism and poverty. Conservatives want to blame family and social collapse and the (resulting?) crime. Libertarians want to blame government overreach, especially the drug war. They are each only partly right, and their stories don’t quite work.

    Progressives are right that the U.S. criminal justice is systematically racist. Police officers act more violently toward blacks in ways that cannot be explained away by differences in crime rates. Black Americans are disproportionately and excessively fined by police,[5] are arrested at disproportionately higher rates for non-violent offenses like marijuana possession,[6] and black men receive longer sentences than white men for the same crimes.[7]

    Nevertheless, the trends go the wrong way. Neither poverty nor racism have disappeared, of course, but they went on a strong downward trend while the criminal justice system’s degree of harshness and punitiveness went on a strong upward trend. Further, racism does not easily explain why the U.S. system became unusually punitive and harsh toward the white majority.

    The conservative story faces similar problems. Conservatives are correct that violent criminals tend to come from one-parent households. The breakdown of families partly explains the rise in crime.[8] Yes, crime rose in the United States (for reasons no one quite knows), and so we might expect increased incarceration.

    But the conservative story does not quite work either. Yes, crime rose, but then, starting around 1994, it fell. Yet the punitiveness of the system continued to rise steadily the entire time. Single-parent household rates have been generally stable since 1994, but the criminal justice system has become harsher. U.S. imprisonment rates are not proportional to our higher crimes, and the United States gives far longer sentences than other countries do for equivalent crimes. There is little evidence that adding extra length to sentences does much to deter criminals.[9] In fact, some empirical work finds that increased sentences promote recidivism; the longer a prisoner is in jail, the more he becomes institutionalized and the weaker his ties to his community become.[10]

    Libertarians want to blame the War on Drugs, and they are partly right. But if jails released all the prisoners convicted or accused only of drug offenses, the United States would still have far more prisoners than any other country, would still incarcerate at a higher rate than almost any other country, and would still impose longer sentences and harsher punishments.[11] Only about 1 in 5 U.S. prisoners are there only for drug crimes.[12] Some of crimes result from conditions created by the Drug War—just as alcohol prohibition lead to increased gang violence in the 1920s—but eliminating the Drug War wouldn’t solve the problem on its own. There are too many other crimes not connected, even indirectly, to conditions created by the Drug War.

    Perverse Incentives: Follow the Money

    In Injustice for All, we argue that the United States is unusually dysfunctional because the key players in the system—from voters to politicians, town aldermen to state legislatures, local police to prison guards, prosecutors to district attorneys to public defenders—face unusually dysfunctional incentives.

    Cash-strapped municipalities can make money by demanding fines for every small infraction—and by expanding what counts as infractions. Local jurisdictions can save money by hiring fewer police and sending more people to state prisons.

    Electing prosecutors, DAs, and judges is largely unique to the United States. Thanks to the problem of rational ignorance, voters are systematically misinformed about crime statistics (they persistently believed crime has been increasing though it actually has been falling) and have no incentive to research more effective criminal justice methods. Prosecutors, district attorneys, and politicians win elections by showing they are “tough on crime” and on criminals, not by defending more humane—or more effective—approaches to criminal justice. They are in an arms race to push for more convictions and ever longer sentences.

    State legislators have every incentive to keep jails and prisons open in their home districts. Prisons systems have become a workfare and fiscal stimulus program for impoverished rural areas. Prison guard unions, prison supplies, and poor towns lobby for more prisons.

    The U.S. Census counts incarcerated persons as residents of town where they are imprisoned, not the town they lived in before incarceration. In Connecticut, this is responsible for creating nine (majority white) state representative districts that would not meet minimum population requirements but for their prison populations.

    In 1981, the Military Cooperation with Law Enforcement Act authorized the military to cooperate with domestic law enforcement agencies. The military began training police in military tactics—the kinds of home invasion techniques SWAT teams use come from the army’s playbook. The 1990 National Defense Authorization Act authorized the military to donate “excess” military equipment to local law enforcement.[13] As of 2005, 80% of towns with populations between 25,000 and 50,000 people had a SWAT team.[14] Thanks to this and other measures, the federal government has inadvertently—or perhaps on purpose—incentivized and subsidized training local U.S. police to deploy military-style suppression tactics during routine calls—except that police face fewer restrictions on violent force than U.S. soldiers.

    Public defender offices are poorly funded, while prosecutors work hand-in-hand with police. Prosecutors threaten to throw dozens of charges at suspects for one crime, and then scare suspects into accepting plea bargains. Pre-trial incarceration is common: Citizens who cannot afford cash bail rot in jail while awaiting their trail, and thus lose their jobs, their homes, and often their families.

    These and dozens of other unusual perverse incentives explain why the U.S. system is an outlier. It’s true that external shocks made a difference. Rising crime in the 1970s and the moral panic of the Drug War led to an overreaction (to put it charitably), but the overreaction has continued even as crime dropped away.

    The key players have a monetary and power-based stake in keeping things going as is. The benefits of bad behaviors are concentrated among the few while the costs are diffused among the many.

    Fixing the Incentives

    If we want to fix the problems, we need to fix the incentives.

    In some cases, that means admitting we can’t really fix the incentives, and so we should instead strip government of some of its power. In general, something should be a crime only if it causes a wrongful harm to a victim, only if criminalization works (by reducing rather than increasing overall crime), only if there are no superior alternatives to criminalization for reducing the problem, only if enforcement passes cost-benefit analysis, and only if government agencies show they are competent to handle the problem.

    The drug war fails each part of this test. The U.S. government has proven itself incompetent and highly corrupt in how it fights the drug war. It blights our cities by incentivizing cartels to run violent black markets. The drug war has become a cash cow for both governments and cartel. Reform is unlikely. We should end the war on drugs.

    Similar remarks apply to SWAT teams. They are rarely used for their proper purpose. We should at least eliminate them in any town smaller than 100,000 people.

    Further, rather than merely asking how to reform prisons, we should look for alternatives to imprisonment. We tend to assume incarceration is the normal, natural way to punish criminals. But historically speaking, it’s unusual and recent. Prison should generally be reserved for convicted violent offenders who represent a continuing safety threat to others, and only if there is no better way to contain them.

    We could instead require the guilty to pay restitution to their victims—perhaps with exemplary damages in some cases. We could expand house arrest. We could even substitute caning/public flogging for imprisonment. While we do not endorse this as the best punishment, in the book, we argue that caning is both more effective and more humane than imprisonment. Even our own criminal code agrees: If we beat you with a cane, we might receive a 3-month jail sentence, but if we kidnapped you and forced you to live in horrible, prison-like conditions for 3 months, we’d receive a far longer sentence.

    Beyond that, here are other reforms, some we should clearly implement, and others more speculative:

    Towns may no longer keep monetary fines. Police may not keep confiscated goods or cash. All fines collected go to restitution funds to make victims of crime whole.
    End career prosecutors. Instead, government lawyers will alternate between serving as public defenders and prosecutors, and they will be judged by factors other than their win rates.
    End the election of judges and district attorneys. Have them appointed, as in most of Europe. Voters have proven themselves incompetent to judge this matter.
    Remove laws immunizing police and others from bad behavior. Make it easier to sue them. Have damages paid not from general taxes, but from salary pools, merit raise pools, and even from retirement funds. Incentivize the police to police each other rather than to look the other way.
    Eliminate cash bail. There’s almost no evidence showing that assigning cash bail makes it more likely for defendants to appear for their court dates. New Jersey passed sweeping bail reform measures in 2014,[15] implementing them in 2017. Since these measures were implemented violent crime is down by more than 30%,[16] pretrial detention is down by 44% or about 6,000 people at any given time,[17] and there was a statistically insignificant percentage change in the number of defendants who failed to appear for their court dates.[18]
    Eliminate plea bargaining. In practice, prosecutors threaten suspects with multiple charges to incentivize them to plead guilty, even when they are innocent.
    Bring back mens rea and test for fair notice. Require prosecutors to prove to grand juries that a person could reasonably have known something was a crime before they committed it. Before even hearing the case, jurors are given the law, and then given a wide range of behaviors, including not only the behaviors attorneys are thinking of prosecuting as crimes, but a range of other related behaviors. Unless a supermajority of the jurors agrees the behavior in question is clearly a violation of that law and that a reasonable citizen would know this ahead of time, then the charges are automatically dropped.
    Change who pays for prison: Make cities pay the full cost of any prisoners they send to state or county prisons.
    Adopt the ancient Athenian model for punishments: After a conviction, both the prosecution and the defense propose a punishment. If the jury does not unanimously accept the prosecutor’s punishment by private vote, the suspect receives the defense’s proposed punishment instead
    The system is broken from top to bottom. There is no singular law or policy responsible for its problems, and so there is no one law or policy that can fix everything. But proposals like these should be taken seriously.

    Black Americans ………..are arrested at disproportionately higher rates for non-violent offenses like marijuana possession,

    Dale Carson, a former cop who turned attorney, in his book Arrest Proof Yourself attributes this to cops being lazy. According to Carson, it is easier to arrest D-Quan bebopping down the public sidewalk than it is to arrest Billy Bob who commits his minor crimes in the safety of his own home or on other private property which would require a warrant and other work.

    and black men receive longer sentences than white men for the same crimes.

    Carson says this is due to Billy Bob having a fixed address where he can get legal papers delivered. BB having an old lady or wife who probably owns a watch and calendar and makes sure BB makes his court date and doesn’t get failure to appear bench warrants which piss off the judge. D-Quan on the other hand misses court dates, blows off meetings with his parole officer, skips court ordered drug tests and other misbehavior that keeps him wrapped up in the justice system.

    Christina Hoff Somers in her Twitter feed traced this back word for word to copyrighted presentation materials from a white, Jewish anti racism consultant, and with that name I traced it in a more rudimentary form to a book she published in 1978 that is in Google Books. This stuff has been around a long, long time.

    To say that blacks have to some extent internalized white, rational culture suggests that blacks have some sort of innate or persistent culture that remains underneath the false, adopted white culture, an intractable late-to-meetings culture that awaits liberation to completely resurface. Is this really the message they want to convey?

    This is certainly a way to end-run defenses of disproportionate representation. The metrics people are judged by are just racist. You expect me to be at work on time, and explain my decisions in coherent written form? Racist!

    Natural selection *requires* that different population groups will have different adaptations if they are in different selective environments.
     
    I'm sorry but this is not as QED as you think it is. For example, Japanese and Europeans evolved in different environments and made different adaptations regarding skin tone and eyelid shape, for example (one theory is that the epicanthic fold is an adaptation for extreme cold to keep your eyeballs from freezing). However, intellectually they ended up in more or less the same place.

    Africans COULD also have ended up in the same place despite their different environment. While it may be quite obvious to you and I that they didn't, it could have been otherwise. You may take these observed differences and reason backward that it was due to different evolutionary environments - e.g. that the easy living in a mild climate did not lead Africans to great heights of intellectual achievement.

    But Amy starts out believing that "all men are created equal" and so if some men end up short of the finish line intellectually, it must be something that happens to them AFTER they are created. You are never going to convince Amy that the gap is not 100% environmental and that if we could fix the "climate of racism" the gap would go away. If the gap persists, this just means we haven't tried hard enough yet to root out evil racists who perpetuate it. Since it's impossible to conduct truly controlled experiments on humans, you are never going to prove otherwise.

    As has often been stated, belief in the equality, neigh, superiority of blacks is really an article of faith of the new religion. As such it is not really subject to scientific proof any more than I could "prove" to you that it's impossible for a guy to be dead for 3 days and then rise up out of his tomb.

  • I think pot–and not a pothead, don’t smoke the stuff–has nothing to do with it.

    A couple of the points NJTC and Chris made–social media and the propaganda from the education system–are clearly a huge part of it.

    But i think the driver is “minoritarianism meets reality” in the post-Obama age.

    Blacks have been pickled for the last 50 years in minoritarianism–they are fine and their problems are “discrimination” and big bad whitey. But up to Obama it was plausible to see some sort of trend of increased acceptance, less racism, loosening of “the power structure” and that it was going to be great. But then whites went and voted Obama into office. They finally had “a black man in charge”. And guess what? … It didn’t “fix it”, did not in fact change much of anything.

    Because as we all know, neither whites, nor “the system” are the problem. But admitting that the problem lies with blacks themselves is simply not acceptable nor even thinkable–even mainstream culture, taken over by minoritarianism objects to such thinking. So … what’s left?

    Obama’s presidency deflated hope. Even having their guy doesn’t help. Insidious hidden forces–“structural racism” must be holding the black man down.

    Then Trump’s election blew it up. Especially with “elite” media–“elite” black media/opinion–waving the bloody shirt, sounding the alarm. The racists are coming! The racists are coming!

    BLM is the entirely natural and logical result of minoritarianism.

    Blacks are a virtuous minority … yet they aren’t performing well … which can only be the fault of the oppressive white majority. Reform has been tried, but even a black president couldn’t do it … the oppressors are just too insidious and embedded in everywhere … in the very structure of America. Time to blow the bitch up!

    There is this matter of "respect." Or about being disrespected as a predicate for depositing shell casings for the Madison Police to pick up off the ground.

    The sociological term-of-art is "honor culture", with Achilles' gripe with Agamemnon in the Iliad offered as an example. I guess according to David Hackett Fischer's Albion's Seed (never read it, but Price Revolutions was a real stinker in its recommendations for wage-and-price controls, which have never, ever, anywhere at any time worked) , comes from some region in England of the 18th century.

    Honor culture, it has been said, was a white, slave-holder demographic thing that got imprinted on the people they subjugated and carried into the Northern cities in the Great Migration.

    I mean, what is driving the Chicago shootings? Honor culture, which is internalized within the Community. That along with corruption endemic to Chicago governance that the police have given up their monopoly on violence.

    Black Lives Matter is only exposing the broader population to the internal strife within the Community. What we at iSteve don't get when we ask, "what does it matter that one man dies at the hands of the police in Minneapolis when multiples of that one man die every summer weekend in Chicago?" What matters is respect, or rather, the disrespect seen on the crowd-sourced video in the treatment of the one man by the police attempting to arrest him. This concern with disrespect (along with a good dose of the largely white Antifa acting on their own agenda) is what has set our cities aflame, and it is the same response driving The Violence in Chicago and other places.

    It is a kind of 9-11 thing and the question Americans asked in the aftermath, "Why do they hate us?" Actually, they don't inasmuch as the struggle is between North African, Near Eastern and Middle Eastern factions for power, and 9-11 was one faction demonstrating to the factions "collaborating" with the U.S. how big and tough this one faction is.

    Apart from the self-inflicted part of demoralizing police departments in major cities to not control looting along with Antifa, which is a whole other story, The Troubles are an epi-phenomenon of an internal struggle. Why do they hate us? On balance, they don't; don't think that everything has to do with you.

    It has contributed to some extent to the social collapse but I think it's only a minor cause. Social Media is a much much bigger problem and a much greater threat. But pot does destroy a lot of lives.

    The problems of the Western world are the three Ds – diversity, debt and drugs. They feed off each other.

    But social media is the big one because it's the thing that turned SJWs from a minor irritation into a grave threat to civilisation. It gave SJWs a weapon with which they could destroy people's lives and force corporations to toe the SJW line. It also transformed SJWs from marginalised nutters into an immensely formidable organised power bloc.

    The commenters have made me aware of a Broadway musical called "Wicked". The existence of such a musical is encouraging, in the same way that "Hamilton" is, as a celebration of American innovation and industry. In Hamilton's day, nighttime illumination was provided by wickless candles. But when the inventor Benjamin Franklin came up with the idea of adding a wick to the wax, home illumination was transformed. The wicked candle was an innovation comparable to later inventions such as the whale-oil lamp and Henry Ford's introduction of the assembly line.

    Not so. Having just visited a number of medieval castles in Central Europe, I can assure you that wicks were used long before Franklin. This tendency to make ridiculous boasts of American ingenuity (people had been burning wax, fat, and oil for millenia, of course they found myriad ways to keep the lights on) betrays a lack of self-esteem vis-a-vis the old continent, no?

Or maybe the all-black Broadway production of Hello, Dolly! is a better comparison: Pearl Bailey instead of Carol Channing, but the plot, the music, the sets are all the same. The animating principles of advanced societies are so strong that they will thrive whoever’s at the switch."

  • Time Magazine featured Minnesota on its cover in 1973 to celebrate its Scandinavian-style social democratic leanings. Life was pretty good in Minnesota in 1973, at least during the four months when it didn't snow. Who would have guessed that 47 years later, Minnesota would be an important front in the emerging Ethiopian civil war? Seriously,...
  • It would be nice if ethnic groups that hate each other in the Old Country would at least move to different parts of the country in the U.S. so they wouldn’t get on each others nerves so much. But, my impression is that feuding ethnic groups tend to move to the same neighborhoods in the U.S. so they can shop at the same grocery stores because they like, pretty much, the same types of food.

    Actually, not to worry, there are not too many Amharas in Minnesota. Minnesota is an Oromo stronghold because that’s where Oromo refugees were settled. The Amhara stronghold is Washington DC.

    The good folks in Minnesota are being inconvenienced because of a conflict that is thousands of years old over the control of the Nile waters. Remember in the Bible when Pharaoh sent an army led by Moses to Nubia because Black people (Nubians) threatened to cut off the Nile’s water supply?

    Jawar Mohammed, an Oromo living in Minnesota single-handedly founded the Oromo Media Network with money provided by EGYPT. Egypt is a a key player in all this because they are trying to destabilize Ethiopia. Egypt is panicking because they are loosing control of the Nile- their ONLY source of water. Most of the Nile water originates in the Amhara highlands and Ethiopia is building a HUGE dam. No Nile, no Egypt.

    Anyway, using OMN satellite TV beaming from Egypt, Jawar instigated and led an Oromo youth movement (know as the Queero) to overthrow the Ethiopian government dominated by the Tigray. He also used Facebook to reach his million followers.

    The Tigray, like the Amharas are Abyssinians (northern Ethiopians). But Queero had the tactical support to the Amharas because the latter had become embitterd by their fellow Abyssinian Tigray cousins. The Tigray had refused to share power with the Amhara. In fact, the Tigray worked to undermine Amharas.

    The Tigray’s, who are only 6% of the population, had managed to stay in power from 1992 to recently using divide and rule by taking advantage of the animosity between Oromos (34%) and Amharas (27%). In fact they encouraged this Oromo hostility with constant propoganda of how Amhara kings had colonized them (true) and humiliated them culturally (true). However, their strategy blew up their face when the unthinkable happened. Amharas and Oromos formed an alliance and overthrow the Tigray govt.

    A new prime minister , Abiye Ahmed came to power and he promised a new dawn of Oromo-Amhara reconciliation, a new Ethiopia. Abiye was perfect for the job. His mother is an Amhara Orthodox Christian, his father an Oromo Muslim, and he himself a convert, a Protestant. He preached of love, unity, forgiveness and most of all unity. He released thousands of Oromo and Amhara political prisoners. He made peace with Eritrea, and before you know it Ethiopians and Eritreans in Chicago embraced each other as long lost brother.

    Love was in the air.

    Amhara and Oromo leaders in exile went back home, including Jawar. OMN opened an office in Addis Ababa. Abiye won the Nobel Peace Prize.

    Alas, the honeymoon between Amharas and Oromos did not last. Soon Oromo activists started attacking Amharas about past grievances, and demanded that the statues of the Amhara king that had conquered them come down. The Amharas refused and instead demanded that the Oromo destroy their graphic statue of a hand holding a cut-off breast. This statue commemorates a mass mutilation incident when Amhara conquistadors allegedly cutoff the breasts of conquered Oromo women. Amharas deny any breast cutting happened and reminded Oromo activists of the nasty Cushitic tradition of their warriors who used to cut off the penises of POWs.

    A few days ago, someone murdered an important Oromo protest singer (Haccallu) and all hell broke loose in Ethiopia and Minnesota. Jawar started making trouble again and and Abiye had no choice to arrest him and shut down OMN in Addis Ababa. Oromos shut down I-94 in St. Paul and toppled Haile Sellassie’s (an Amhara king) statue in England.

    Egypt probably had Haccallu assassinated.

    Merema,

    you're obviously an Ethiopian or Eritrean, or of such descent, with the knowledge of details that comes with that. Thanks for the clear exposition.

    A few small questions, if I may, coming from someone who had some exposure to Ethiopia but has no in-depth insight.

    First, what role does religion play in this? Obviously, Jawar Mohammed is a Muslim, whereas Haccaallu was Orthodox. Does the present Oromo activism and violence transcend their internal Christian-Muslim divide, or is it the Muslim Oromos who are in creasingly in charge? Dire Dawa and Harer as hotspots during the recent events might point to Islam being an important component and catalyst just an inch beneath the surface. Them again, Ambo is a thoroughly Christian place, as far as I am aware. Can you help me out?

    Second, what is prime minister Abiy's personal religiosity, apart from the purely denominational aspect, but rather with regard to his personality and character? What, if anything, does it mean to him?

    Finally, receiving a Nobel Peace Prize ever more seems like the opening chapter to a downward political trajectory from there onward.

    Many thanks.

That they’ll actually decline in terms of political clout.

    1968 seemed like a masterstroke covert operation to destroy the New Deal coalition that provided high paying jobs for both blue collar and white collar workers alike. Elites collaborated with demographic groups like Blacks and Women to destroy the economic gains made under FDR. Both Blacks and Women are entirely dependent on aggressive government programs that provide “protected group” status and thus superior citizenship.

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protected_group

    Feminism destroyed the living wage and elites are still pleased with that. Blacks drove out the pesky Catholic ethnics and their political machinery (unions.) Blacks were consequently granted special respect and privileges. Both are groups that can’t function independently and thus viable political pawns.

    If you want to understand how the world really works, watch this scene from Godfather 2. In this clip, Senator Pat Geary is caught with a dead hooker at a mafia-owned brothel.

    A Corleone mafia family associate then shows up, offering to make this go away,

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=747dG1riJzA

    Afterward, Senator Geary becomes a huge friend to the Corleone family, helping them out in any way he can.

    In this second clip, Geary effusively praises Italians (despite holding private animosity towards their ethnicity).

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QP9VaP5qBgw

    If you substitute in Jews for Italians, the above scenes offer a pretty realistic look at how the American political system works... By the way, as Ron Unz has pointed out, the Jewish mafia has historically been much more powerful and wide spread than the Italian mafia, but it's the Italians who received most of the media attention....

    The reality is that there are a lot of shady Jewish businessmen, like Epstein. These guys have access to prostitutes, cash, and drugs. So they run huge blackmail operations that target prominent politicians, media personalities, judges, corporate leaders, bureaucrats, entertainers, military/intel officers, and other men of power&influence.

    They seduce prominent men into incriminating themselves in some way (sexually, financially, etc), then hold the evidence as a form of blackmail over their target.

    So there are a lot of Jewish Corleones.

    What do the Jewish Corleones want?

    Mostly, they want various personal favors. In addition to that, they want support of Israel and friendliness towards Jews. They also want support for the pro-diversity/globalist project.

    If the Clintons are fanatically supportive of anti-White policies, it's not because they "hate" Whites. It's not because they feel "guilty." It's not because they're "empathetic." It's because Bill Clinton likely was banging hookers on Epstein's property, which provided blackmail leverage to the Jews.

    This explains why American politicians support anti-Whiteism in America, but are comfortable with Jewish racial supremacy in Israel.

    This explains why American politicians cry over a few hundred Southern Blacks who were lynched a century ago, but are indifferent to the lives of over 1 million Iraqis who were slaughtered by the recent American invasion.

    By the way, Epstein already had a few mansions to use as brothels. Ever wonder why Epstein needed a private island that was so far away from home? It was because when they needed to arrange a dead hooker situation, they needed a place where they could dispose of bodies without anyone seeing anything. They needed a place that was unpopulated and remote.

    Unfortunately, Trump seems to have been very close to Epstein and Maxwell...... So if you're wondering why Trump bends over backwards so much on so many important issues, it could possibly be blackmail.......

    TLDR Summary:

    Jewish Corleones are running Epstein-style blackmail operations that target prominent Americans. This is why America's leaders betray their people.


    It's all about the blackmail.

    1. Maybe your house was exceptionally well built, but the 1960s was way past the peak in terms of construction quality in the US. After WWII there was a need to put up lots of inexpensive housing for returning GIs and so many shortcuts and cost saving measures were adopted vs. traditional building techniques - drywall instead of wet plaster, simplified woodwork and trim, smaller windows, hollow doors, etc. A 19th century home builder would look at your house and scoff at it.

    2. The US sowed the seeds of its own destruction in WWII. The Nazis needed to be defeated but the war left the Soviets in a strong position (territorially if not economically) and this meant that the US economy never went back to a peacetime footing, not to this day.

    Meanwhile, we picked up the defense costs for our defeated enemies who used the savings to rebuild their economy and undercut American products (which we let them sell to us without any tariff barriers while they kept our goods out).

    During the war a huge # of Southern blacks were imported into northern cities to work in war industries but with the post-war deindustrialization they were surplus population that had nothing to do but make trouble, which they continue to do to this very day. So our great cities, our mass transit, etc. became no-go zones.

    You might think of your little suburban shack as glorious but the suburbs are isolating and atomizing. Before WWII, you would have lived in an urban village with people mostly of your own ethnicity. If you are a NJ Transit Commuter, you probably would have lived in Newark like Philip Roth. Your doors would have been unlocked, you would have known your neighbors and known the butcher, the baker, etc. You wouldn't have to deal with car maintenance or insurance - most things (shops, places of worship, maybe even your workplace) were walking distance and anywhere in the city was a nickel trolley ride away. There would have been all kinds of clubs and groups that you were connected to, not to mention nearby parents, siblings, cousins, etc.

    But urban blacks made that life impossible and corporations prefer it if you are an atomized consumer and spend all your time sitting in traffic in your expensive car or watching TV and buying the crap that is advertised on it. People getting together and singing, dancing, playing sports, whatever doesn't generate revenue like a televised NFL game.

    Israeli cous cous is unique and has larger grains.
     
    Israeli "couscous" has a completely different history than real couscous. In its early days, Israel had a (democratic) socialist economy and socialist economies are always short of hard currency for some mysterious reason, including hard currency that can be used to buy imported foodstuffs (the E. Germans went for 40 years without seeing a banana).

    At the same time, they brought a whole bunch of Sephardic Jews from Iraq, Yemen, Morocco, etc. into Israel. Rice is a staple food of Sephardic cuisine but it doesn't grow in Israel. These Arabic speaking immigrants, who were just an annoying bunch of uneducated brown buggers to the Ashkenazi socialist founders of Israel (sort of the Israel version of Mexicans), kept asking for rice so that they could cook dinner, because they were not into eating potatoes and buckwheat groats like their (distant) Ashkenazi cousins. The Ministry of Finance said no way - we are not going to spend our scarce and valuable hard currency reserves on buying rice for you filthy buggers - you can eat dirt as far as we are concerned, if you don't already. (The Sephardic Jews of Israel hate hate hate educated left wing Ashkenazis to this day.) The wise Ben Gurion ordered that the (socialist) pasta factory produce a suitable rice shaped pasta substitute (made from wheat flour) that would satisfy the dirty Arab-Jews and thus "Israeli couscous" was born. (It was not a very good substitute). Later it came to be loved by American chefs for some strange reason. Meanwhile in Israel it is eaten today mainly by young children.

    Prior to 1989 East Germany was held up as the best case for socialist economic efficiency. After reunification, all of the East German heavy manufacturing plants were razed, not just retooled. To the extent some products had good quality and could be showcased in the West, they were produced inefficiently and didn't concern themselves with environmental costs.

    This is the magic of the market system, in that a product needs to not merely be of high quality, but generate a profit, to succeed. Profits imply the benefits (revenues) are greater than the costs. Add further that high profile exporters had no environmental restrictions, which is why the ecological devastation in socialist countries is simply unfathomable to effete Westerners. , after reunification and replaced under the guidance and capital of West German companies.

    Carlson didn’t say that socialist or dictatorial systems are less efficient (which they are). He said that they were impossible – that you COULDN’T build a safe plane under those conditions. This is false. Soviet planes had a reasonably good safety record. Not perfect but neither is Boeing. On the one hand, the Socialist economy was slow to respond so you had a lot of outdated and inefficient products – turbojets after the West had switched to more fuel efficient and quieter fanjets, etc. OTOH, the lack of a market pricing mechanism meant that the Soviets could sometimes use high quality materials (titanium) that would have been cost prohibitive to use in the West.

    As for E. Germany, many of the E. German products were quite good, perhaps even better than their modern Western counterparts that had been cheapened while the E. German item was still made in the old fashioned solid way – metal gears instead of plastic, etc. However, the E. German product often appeared stodgy and out of date – the graphics on the package were poorly done and out of style. The logos looked like something from the 1950s. E. German brands did not have slick marketing with TV commercials and jingles. The management of these factories had no idea on how to sell a product in a market economy – in E. Germany you just had to make the stuff and you didn’t have to worry about selling it . So these products had no chance in a market economy for reasons often having absolutely nothing to do with the inherent quality of the products themselves.

    The Suffragettes (White women) opened the gates to our present Hell at the beginning of the 20th century. Or rather the White men of the time who buckled under and gave women the vote in the UK and US opened the gates.

    I think a good argument could be made that allowing women to vote has made much of our downward slide possible, by adding millions of voters susceptible to emotion, pity, and the maternal instinct to protect the weak.

Instead of actually, like, campaigning, Hillary spent the last several weeks of the 2016 election basically making a music video- I remember seeing bits of the large, exquisitely-staged Bruce Springsteen concert in Philadelphia (and quite liking it, despite being more of a John Mellencamp man myself), and that was 3 days BEFORE the showstopper, bringing down-the-house coronation at the Javitts Center, with shattered glass confetti raining down on the jubilant “I’m with Her’ers”- isn’t that Cher? Isn’t that Katie Perry making out with Madonna?

    The Clintons being such inveterate, trashy, celebrity-chasing star f@ckers (interesting how many major movies and TV shows have been made about them- THE WAR ROOM, THE AMERICAN PRESIDENT, THE WEST WING, MADAME SECRETARY- while the only media properties so far based upon the boring-as-dirt Obamas has been Dinesh D’Souza’s hostile documentary) it is no surprise that so much effort was wasted on pageantry- hilariously there was a whole big-spread, ready-to-print article about how Team Hillary’s big brain “Ada” supercomputer program STEM’d and “Future is Female”’d her way to stereotype-shattering gal-gebraic electoral Nirvana- until, you know, the whole thing kinda peta-flopped.

    To me, though, probably the most substantive bit of Hilary 2016 spectacle was Lena Dunham hanging out at Clinton Brooklyn campaign headquarters, because that reeked of another 4-8 more years of crass, New Democrat hyper-gentrification, with another New York burrough and- hey! throw in a DC quadrant while you’re at it- ethnically cleansed for white and Asian VOX freelancer hipsters to colonize, telling us how everything has never been better, unless you’re some loser living in a recently Affordably Furthered Housing/race riot’d nowhere berg, in which case you deserve whatever you get for not seeking out big city lofts and “Mandarin immersion” magnet schools for your kids which just happen to be 95% NAM-free.

    That is it. What Britain now suffers comes inevitably from the history of the British Empire. Churchill is central to getting us all here.

    The sun never set on the British Empire. The sun never sets on the American Empire, best known as The Anglo-Zionist Empire, Part 2. WASP culture was made global, THE ruling culture of the globe to which all those fearing power and all those envying power bowed and to which they began assimilating. The entire world has been Anglicized in the sense that world Elites, with a couple of obvious exceptions, operate in the world very much as if they are the new Anglo-Saxon Puritan regicides (they must war every second against Christ the King and any possibility of Christendom) and all 'other' whites are Irish Catholics, who either are to be slaughtered or rounded up and quarantined in dire poverty.

    For those of you who prefer to see in the eyes of the Jewish half of the Anglo-Zionist Empire, we are all Palestinians.

    This is a religious, spiritual war. WASP culture is the greatest vehicle of anti-Christendom because it is the product of Judaizing heresy married to the spirit of revived pagan Germanic lust for perpetual war. And that means that WASP culture, like a giant con game of incalculable violence, eventually will implode, leaving chaos. Before the implosion, the Elites of the Anglo-Zionist Empire will use their non-white minions and anti-Christ minions to terrorize non-WASP whites they rule on the grandest scale yet, to make certain that when the damn breaks, there is no possibility whatsoever that Christendom can be revived anywhere in the Anglosphere or Western Europe.

    What has become quite obvious these past few weeks is that the holiness of white liberalism is undergirded by the oppression of black people. Blacks were subjugated and they labored for less than what they were worth.

    White liberalism is a missionary dogma. The declaration of independence would not have been so absolutist if it had not been for Thomas Jefferson having daily intimate contact with slaves and being involved in slavery.

    "Whataboutism" is a real thing, only in the opposite direction. When criticized about slavery and the treatment of the black population, white liberals will go whatabout the--Chinese or whatabout this or that.

  • @Mycale

    Some people believe that high arrest rates for blacks for violent crime reflect police racism. They believe that biased police arrest innocent blacks and let guilty whites go, and that is why the black arrest percentages are so high. That’s not plausible. Are we supposed to believe that when police get a report of a white robber or assailant, they don’t bother to try to catch him? Or that when they get a report of a black robber, they go out and arrest an innocent young black? Police are rewarded for making arrests that end in convictions, not for indulging in prejudice.
     
    I was pretty liberal when the SJW thing really got going around 2010 (and grew exponentially after Obama's 2012 campaign), and I can tell you exactly where this idea got going among the liberal left. As mentioned in the article, it is the study about marijuana usage. Apparently, whites and blacks and found that they consume marijuana in equal amounts, but vastly more blacks are arrested than whites. Ergo, cops are racist. This "disparate impact" was used by big cities to decriminalize marijuana, which has made city parks across the country smell like reggae concerts year round.

    I've seen people reference this study as a QED about racist cops in the past week, it is firmly in the SJW consciousness and will never die. There can be no other possible explanation, like whites tend to smoke in private whereas blacks do it on street corners and walking down the sidewalk (that has been my observation in the city).

  • Anonymous[650] • Disclaimer says:

    Liberals are good, kind-hearted people. Liberals are the people who, in pre-historic times, pointed out that some members of the tribe were having more of their fair share of the hunt and that they should divide their lot. But they have been duped by a super-smart and very radical liberal elite, most of whom are Marxist Jews.

    If conservatives could even begin to understand the emotional distress that liberals feel about rhe existence of inequality, they would gain invaluable insight into the liberal mindset. Liberals will always fight for the underdog. It’s in their DNA. It’s who they are. These instincts are noble and salutary; the problem is the manipulation of those instincts on the part of radical liberal elites that see as the solution of inequality not creating more rooms for others, but birning the whole house to the ground and rebuilding it with just one room for all. They see equality as a goal that is best achieved not by uplifting the weak, but by destroying the strong.

    When white liberals cry over a black man being strangled to death by a police officer, it is genuine. This instinct, that the happiness of the group is equal to the happiness of the least happy member of the group, is a huge part of the liberal mindset. And “group” to liberals is not race, or nation, or even family: it is people that they see, and interact with. White liberals were the first ones that cared about the plight of working-class white people, and they pretty much did all the job of raising their living standards through unions, the creation of the income tax, better working condition, pay leave, etc. And the fact is that most working-class white peole back in those days voted conservative didn’t matter to them. Thye fought for the white working class because they were the underdogs against white plutocrats, and now they champion black people because they are seen as the underdogs kept down by white institutions,

    What happens to liberals is that there is a radical wing of the liberal elite that knows that the bulk of liberals would not follow them if they were honest about their intentions. This elite is tiny, but they are extremely intelligent and intellectual, skilled at activism, and they have a deep hatred for Western Civilization They are almost entirely intellectual successors of the French thinkers, Derrida and Sartre, who proposed that the only concrete structure of human interaction are relations of power, and that government, institutions and laws are just proxies that exist to enforce the moral will of those in power. They believe that White Western Man is the only true source of relevant inequality, and that by eliminating this the prolem of inequality would be mostly solved. Salvery was not invented by White Western Man, but he enforced it on a scale never seen before. Some nations being more powerful than other is not something created by White Western Man, but with his technology the gap in power between those who have his technology ans those who not is exponentially larger. White Western Man didn’t invent sexism but he raped and seduced women on an unprecendented scale, from the mass rape of brown women by Conquistadors, to making non-Western Man feel emasculated, leading to abuse of women Worldwide as a compensatory mechanism. Whatever evil there, White Western Man amplifies it. They have identified White Western Man as The Ultimate Evil of All Existence, which must be extirpated from the face of the Earth.

    But they know white liberals would never follow them. White liberals don’t actually have a “beef” with other white people; the beef they have is with inequality. They support a white person when that person is in a position of weakness and distress, like a poor white wairtress that got abused by her rich boss, and they oppose the white person when they are in a position of being an oppressor, like whites in the South lynching black back in the 1950’s, or Wall Street brokers stealing money from middle-classs people(both white and black) through government bailouts.

    If white liberals understood that this post-modern liberal elite of neo-Marxists actually wanted to exterminate white people, and all the individual freedoms of the West and replace it with a bureacratic dictatorship ruling over amorphous masses of colored people with white people and their culture exterminated, they would never support it. Not only because all true liberals strongly oppose genocide of any people, but also because white liberals have families that are white like them. Even when it comes to white conservatives, the same. White liberals were the first ones who exposed the fact that corporations and the Federal Government were poisoning the water systems of the Appalachians back in the 1960’s and making people sick. Those people were over 90% white and voted mostly Republican. The rich white conservatives who owned the chemical plants couldn’t care less about those poor white conservatives. Funny how the white liberals from the coasts were the only ones that cared about them.

    Also, there has been enough interbreeding between liberals and conservatives over the generations that almost no families are entirely liberal or conservative. Most white liberals have conservative relatives, and they certainly don’t want them to be exterminated, or raped by black criminals or murdered. Liberals are your brothers, sisters, sons, spouses, etc. You know, the whole story of not bringing up politics at dinner table. It’s just that it is very distressing and confusing for liberals to exercise their pursue of equality when it is not clear who is the strong and who is the weak, and who is friend or foe.

    They have been duped. They think they are pursuing equality by enfranchising blacks and rioters, but they are just “useful idiots” to an extremely intelligent and hostile radical liberal elite, mostly Marxist Jews, who use them and the rioters alike as tools in accomplishing what they really want: the fall of Western Civilization, namely European Civilization and it’s satellites, like the U.S.A, and the replacement of it with a one-World amorphous “nation” where everyone will be equal except fpr themselves, who will rule all from the top. This radical liberal elite is tiny, no more than a few hundred individuals, but they are exceptionally clver, most of the them with PhDs in philisophy, professors of linguistic, editorial publishers, etc. Not only that, they have trememdous energy and motivation to work to bring about their goals, and are very diligent and patient. The old story, “steady pace wins the race”

    White liberals would never support the rioting and mayhem if they knew the grand scheme behind it all, and that their loved ones, including their conservative loved ones, are targeted for disenfranchisement and extermination. Believe it, your liberal relatives love you. The reason why they do this is not because they want to harm you, but exactly because they think nothing of this will harm you, and that you are already well off and that there are other people in distress that need their help.

    What is happening is an unspeakable crime. White liberals are being taken advantage off, having their most noble and most emotionally fulfilling instincts perverted and corrupted into a force of chaos by an elite that sees them as the enemy to be destroyed: they willingly do the biding of those that want to destroy them,

    I predict a wave of mass suicide of white liberals in the ensuing yearas as they realize they destroyed everything they loved pursuing an equality that doesn’t exist, that cannot exist, and that was created as a phantom to manipulate them into not uplifting the weak, but destroying the strong. Even when the “strong” are not strong at all, but just their friends and relatives alike, including their conservative relatives, just ordinary people trying to live their lives, lives now ruined because of their folly.

    The common euRapean just does not wish to be burdened by the murky details of how that wealth must be transferred for the benefit of their bloody civilisation. They just know that their elected elites will do the required evil, and they will eventually partake in the spoils, as it trickles down to them.

    All those "chores" were (and still substantially are) traditional "womens' work" in England unless you're a mgtow or a monk. Because it's a heck of a lot nicer than being a ploughman, a miner or a fisherman.
    So just who is it that's insisting they're too "busy", too refined, and "gentle" to undertake them?

    The one valid argument against capital punishment is that possibility of executing the wrong person. A few people were imprisoned and later released because it was discovered that they were innocent. The authorities can provide financial compensation to the victim of an unjust imprisonment, but not bring a victim back to life.

    Very few of those people were found to be “innocent”, not guilty is more correct. Mostly some flaw in the case was discovered, or a confession was discovered by somebody already dead or dying. The Innocence Project and their ilk are pushing on open doors for the most part. The Shawshank Redemption has a lot to answer for.

On the other hand, if you’re meek and accused of touching a child, you are shanked and drowned in your cell toilet. Innocent men fight back.

    @Ris_Eruwaedhiel

    I am reliably told that there have been instances, uncommon to be sure, of it having been found that prisoners who died while serving life, LWOP, or “stunt cock” sentences were almost certainly not factually guilty of the offense to wit for which they were sentenced, and many more where inmates with decades in are presented with the reasonable possibility of a successful acquittal or dismissal of their case but who refuse to appeal. Being institutionalized, they do not want to be released. If released they are likely to immediately reoffend or commit suicide.

    No justice system is perfect. Ours could and should be better. But none the less, as it is, these incidents are statistically very rare. Most people doing time for a crime of which they are factually innocent, are career criminals who did many equal or worse crimes and were never charged or tried for those.

    In my own case, I had a co-worker whose brother got LWOP for killing his wife and a strange man when he caught them fucking in the marital bed. He had thirty years in and had been a model prisoner and had had cancer surgery and a triple bypass, was unlikely to reoffend. My view was that he was indeed a murderer but that thirty years was fair dinkum and
    keeping him in longer was just a waste of money. So I wrote letters and got clergymen and a former DA and various and sundry people to submit briefs, as did a few other people, but no dice. He dropped dead a little later.

    He’d had a couple of minor offenses a kid but had been a stable citizen with a wife and three kids when the incident happened. Both he and the wife were what Eric Thomson called ‘ostensible whites’, e.g. there was some feather-Indian in there. It was murder but not in cold blood, he was provoked.

    I believe in the death penalty, I don’t believe in LWOP except in cases of mass murder or treason in times of declared war where the offender can only be extradited if the government agrees he can not be executed.

    An active case where in my opinion clemency is clearly overdue is the poor slob in California who, drunk, collided with a car in which Jilly Rizzo was killed. The Sinatra’s have lobbied to keep him in prison. He deserved prison, but not for life, not nearly this long. No one wants to tell the Sinatra Family no, is the problem. Rizzo was a hood and not much ornament to society anyway, and though that didn’t make it okay to kill him, absent pressure from this spoiled Family he’d have been out in three to five years. Let the poor bastard go already.

    Does anyone know how Somalis and local blacks in Minneapolis get along? We don't have a large population of East Africans in Chicago but we do have a pretty big population of West Africans. And they (Nigerians and Malians especially) absolutely detest our local Dindus and vice versa.

    True story: I once had to intervene between a black female officer and a young Nigerian taxicab driver. She wrote him some traffic tickets (which honestly had to be written) and he could not stand the sight of her. This African was asking me or another white officer to write his tickets. He explained that back home African-Americans are seen as selfish, stupid, lazy...and most importantly godless and fatherless. She in turn got in his face and I had to get in between these two even though she wasn't my partner. I found myself in the strange position of kinda hoping this arrestee got off in traffic court.

    Replies: @Lancelot_Link, @trickster, @Loren

    Somalis, Ethiopians, Eritreans all hate each other. Within each group there are sub groups who again all hate each other. The same situation exists in the rest of Africa. In the South:
    -South Africa: The Zulus and Xhosa hate each other
    -Mozambique: The Makua and Sena hate each other
    -Zimbabwe: The Ndebele is a splinter group of the Zulus. One can only wonder why they splintered but they hate the other major tribe the Shona and are despised in return
    -Uganda: The Ovimbindu, Mbundu and Bakongo hate each other

    And the tribes in each country not only detest the other tribes in their country but also the other tribes in other countries. So for example an Ndebele from Zimbabwe, even though somewhere in the past he was a Zulu, will have no use for the Zulus, the Xhosa or the Venda which is another smaller tribe in South Africa. The same applies to all the other African countries except those with predominantly Moslem populations. There, the Moslems hate all non-Moslem Africans and are hated in return.

    Now when I say hate, I mean hate ! The whole continent is a witches brew of tribal hate and conflict surfacing from time to time as it did in Rwanda with 500K killed. The Somalis and Ethiopians, in my opinion consider themselves superior to each other and to all other African tribes because they are fairer !? And so it goes for one reason or the other…….

    When these characters come to the west they bring all their tribal beliefs and prejudices with them. Here they consider all American blacks as lacking a culture, with no traditions or foundational beliefs, stupid and assholes. A South African black for example whether Zulu or Xhosa is more refined than a US Black. US blacks of course love their black brothers in Africa, their “roots brothers” and all that drivel even though few US blacks have ever been to the continent. I remember during the struggle to abolish apartheid in South Africa, American blacks would come down to South Africa, never go into any of the Townships, take out a few photos here and there with leaders and sub-leaders of the struggle, put on a T-shirt emblazoned with some struggle propaganda and fly back to the states. “Yo Bro, I was there man, supporting the Brothers”. LOL

    Long story short, US blacks while deeply in love with their “roots” brothers are considered idiots in return. The few American blacks who visit Africa soon discover than ghettos in Africa make the US projects look like Buckingham Palace. As for the white Police in the States gunning down blacks, an Ndebele for example who falls into the hands of a Shona policeman can expect no mercy. THOSE few US blacks who visit Africa soon come to realise how good they have it here. Then again, the few who immigrate to Africa find it is a very long and tedious process to get their papers and when they finally get there are outcasts. Which tribe do they belong to ?? I remember when Oprah had her genes tested and found out she was from some African tribe, I was in South Africa at the time. Her “roots” discovery, tears and emotional outburst generated great mirth and some not so polite comments among whites, blacks and coloureds.

    I will say this from my own experience and I submit that others may have had a different experience. African blacks hold whites in greater esteem than they do other blacks whether American or other African blacks. Hence, your experience as you described it is no surprise to me.!!

    There's a book "Out of America: A Black Man Confronts Africa" by Keith Richburg that verifies practically everything that you have asserted.

    Mr. Richburg was the chief correspondent stationed in Africa for the Washington Post.

    Upon arrival, he met a flustered White colleague, whom he knew to be extremely liberal. His friend was leaving. He told Keith that he was going to write a book and call it "Monkeys With Machine Guns." Initially startled, Richburg shrugged it off as fatigue.

    Keith started out in Somalia during the hunt for Mohammed Aideed. From there, he went west to Rwanda and witnessed first hand the conflict between the Hutu and the Tutsi. He describes standing beside the Nile River and watching bodies and body parts float by; some singularly, others clumped together, men, women... children and infants... wondering what they did to deserve to be slaughtered?

    As he journeyed across the Dark Continent, he encountered bribery, extortion, corruption, torture, mutilation, rape, slavery and genocide. He went to Liberia and saw gangs wearing Donald Duck masks and Tutus hacking people up with machetes. Another group, the Butt Naked Brigade, would strip bare before committing mayhem with their weed whackers.

    The next stop on his itinerary was Sierra Leone. He visited the slave holding pens and imagined what it must have been like for a long forgotten ancestor who had been bound for the New World from there. He read the moving statements by the Africans from America visiting directly from across the Atlantic. He wanted to write something similarly touching, but he couldn't. He had seen Africa. Not the tourist attraction on the coast, but the Black Heart of Africa.

    Lastly, he made a pilgrimage to South Africa. It was to be a soothing balm for his wounded soul. He thought of it as a last ditch refuge for Nazis, Skinheads and Renegade Klansmen and he reveled in seeing the progress that had been made since the end of Apartheid. He left feeling the very last emotion that he wanted to experience: sympathy for the Boer, the White South African.

    As the plane neared home, he said to himself "Thank God, my nameless ancestor, brought here in chains, made it out alive. Thank God, I am an American!

    That book should be required reading for Black History Month.

You just have to copy/paste them into BLAST, which is an ubiquitous software, to learn where these align. There even a BLAST on Pubmed.

    I tried once to take a bioinformatics class, and dropped out since it was a waste of time for me, and the classmates were American slowpokes. It’s not like the Kizzmekias were designing these algorithms. It was just copy/pasting into various forms.

    But if I would have done a BLAST alignment test in Bucharest, who would have published it? There’s a bunch of Romanian geniuses at the University of Timisoara, who make the rounds on TV complaining about how some Chinese researchers stole their “discoveries”. They were all BLAST-ing the shit out of the sequence, but the Chinese had a better system, and got their stuff in Chinese “peer-reviewed” journals earlier.

    It’s worse, because the Romanians and the Chinese claim they “discovered” the immunogenic regions. That is supposedly more relevant than the spike protein, because that s what you need for making a vaccine. But there will never be a vaccine, so you can shove the spike protein and the “immunogenic” regions where the sun never shines.

    By that same token, any brain fart from Kissmekia will be published before everyone else’s, at least in the Amerosphere. But it’s only an Amerosphere brain fart. It has zero diagnostic value and zero curative value, if only because there is no cure, there is no prevention, and the antibody diagnistoc tests are all low-quality on a par with coin-flipping.

    You are wrong if you are talking about music in general. German Thrash and Death metal is internationally successful (Morgoth, Sodom, Atrocity, Kreator, Rammstein, as is electronical music (Paul Kalkbrenner, Westbam, Scooter) or film music (Hans Zimmer, Djamin Rawadi) Techno is basically a German musical style.
    Pop and rock’n’roll are lyrics-centered musical genres, and Germans are not successful, because 1) pop music in German doesn’t sell internationally, and 2) the artists who would switch to English are inferior to their American, British counterparts – and they wouldn’t sell in Germany.

    I suspect a lot of people who grow up in even a half-way decent environment have no idea what it is like growing up in an incredibly dysfunctional one. It isn't like having a bad time in your adult life where at least you can know what a bad time is. Instead, it is all you know and essentially it is you, because you have no other experiences. It therefore forms instincts and, most insidiously, the lack of them that you may not even know you should have.

    Deeply believing that you're irredeemably bad and defective from age 4 upwards is quite a trip. Especially when you can't even conceive how bizarre that is.

    This will also lead you to end up in patterns which echo that childhood. For example, someone who grows up in a very abusive household will still obviously know what most types of abuse are. They will recognise that being hit or stolen from are bad. Nonetheless, if they don't happen to have an objective measure by which to label the abuse as it is, they will lack the emotional warning sign that usually leads people to leave or fix their situation. Instead they may fall back on their childish coping mechanisms, which will likely be some form of self-harm, no matter how subtle. This is a childish way of re-asserting control. Essentially, people who lack an instinctive feel for their boundaries from having them broken so many times as a child will allow themselves a lot of suffering and barely realise it. They may also unwittingly encourage it and, through a sort of hidden hand process of trial and error, seek it out.

    I'm dubious of either the solution that somehow makes the nuclear family sacrosanct and I'm equally dubious of early childhood education. Lives are complicated and people are complicated, a simple formula is unlikey to be the answer.

    As for the things that lead to ineqality of people's innate assets - there are 5 things that you carry with you as a young adult wherever you go. They are your intelligence, your looks, your health, your education and your upbringing. The first three are a bit random, the 4th depends on the others (except your looks) and we already use the government to work on it; only the 5th is absolutely external to you. This leads decent compassionate people to highlight it every now and again. It is the crucial factor that we might help fix and don't currently. The problem though is that efforts tend to lead to Rabbit Proof Fence...

    If you're going to build institutions that make up for toxic homes then they need to be staffed by saints. The patience you need for other people's awful children is inhuman and the power you have over them is corrupting. Furthermore, the peer group can't be all toxic too - which, as they'll all be abused little terrors, will be pretty unlikely. You'd also need to overcome the incredible pain that a child feels when so obviously rejected and pushed into special treatment. And there's no real way around that, it is what the situation is.

    Even worse, you'll have a problem working out which children are in that terrible upbringing. It is normal for a child to try to persuade the world that their home life I absolutely fine and normal. They essentially are their home life and so they are simply trying to convince others that they are normal, and not bad, awful people themselves. Again, this will sound absurd to most, but five year olds most certainly can think this way.

    These tremendous obstacles, and there are more, may be why people hope something straightforward like emphasising the nuclear family will lead to some sort of organic fixing of the situation. I'm not sure. One of the problems I speculate would be that with people having few children, children in turn have few uncles or aunts. And it is those relations that traditionally could have provided a lifeline to the products of awful upbringings. The later age of childbirth can remove grandparents from the picture as well.

    Indeed, marriage was undermined by the now adult products of very awful marriages.

    I suppose it isn't an all or nothing solution and I deeply appreciate Heckman's wisdom in highlighting this area. Solutions need not be from government and just lots of clever people thinking about it will lead to interesting ideas.

    I personally feel that a more tribal structure through relaxed and informal polyamory is promising. It is the only way I can think of to restore greater kinship structures that cannot exist with current childbirth levels.

    This will no doubt cause convulsions in many who read it. All I can say is that having a wider pool of adults who can provide love to a child than two increases the probability that they will actually receive it. And yes, there are lots of weird cults and whatever, filled with wackos, that show the dangers of this...but as with Unz.com, that which is verboten will end up carrying more than its fair share of the complete crazy. It is also the wackos who will be reported upon.

    Alternatively, one might look to religious institutions to provide this. I suspect one advantage of the Catholic church having unmarried priests was that all of the parishioners' children were also their children. The problem though is that this seems to have led to even more wackos and general evil. It is this that my suggestion might be properly compared too...

    In summary, abused children are generally pretty difficult to look after so they require great people. They also don't deep down feel they deserve anything good and so they even reject being looked after completely. So you need to overcome their family, their own objections and their bad behaviour in order to help them or even identify them. And you have to somehow care enough to do so. Without your own intense personal connection, I don't think there are many people who can fit that bill. So who do you staff the institutions with? There are some who will recognise all of the above and be able to make an effort for a limited period of time, but not the type of long-term committed and sustained effort that is needed. Again, you end up with Rabbit Proof Fence.

    To even think of solving such a difficult problem requires an entirely safe environment for discussion. One where people can speak absolutely freely without fear of being punished for saying the wrong thing. Anything else just leads to the same old inquisitorial finger-pointing and one-upmanship. Heckman gets this right.

    Thank you for this superb comment. I feel educated after reading it.

    Concur. Many families are hell. And ‘early childhood education’ (i.e. systematically getting kids out of unhealthy, abusive, dangerous situations) cannot repair the damage done by non-loving/ dysfunctional/absent parents. Or bad genes.
    A happy childhood is not and has never been the default option. You could say a happy childhood for your kids used to be the main object of societal struggle up until ca. 40 years ago and is still an aim many struggle to achieve, but there have always been losers in that struggle (say, the remorseful, but relapsing alcoholic) and there have always been people who procreate rather thoughtlessly, and they create a lot of misery. There’s people who deliberately take out their own childhood on their kids, and others who don’t know why they’re abusing their offspring. Some single-moms treat their kids as a pet, a statement, a project, a substitute for a partner etc. There are so many different kinds of wrong people who still have children and would probably claim they love them with all their heart. Not sure society can fix all this. Not sure it should try.
    Liberalism is a sickness that promises a solution to every problem and has no room for suffering. For the reality of human failure, and, since ‘erare humanum est’, for humans.

    First, we must fight the lying, everything else falls into place. If we can’t fight it by open opposition, we have to ridicule it, satirize it, make it embarrassing.

    we didn’t have such drills or hazmat suits etc. I am sure the USSR didn’t have the resources
     
    That just means that PNR had either no resources, or no good planning (less developed civil defense). In USSR, every school had a nuclear evacuation plan, every new block building had a fallout shelter with supplies, suits, masks etc., every factory was decorated with posters of organized evacuation to some predefined location. Drills were common. And Warsaw was one of primary targets for NATO nuclear attack in escalation scenario. With no civil defense, your destiny was to become a toast. Hopefully, we still have civil defense.

    If it was some conspiracy then I would say it was the KGB or the GRU. Why?
     
    No sane internal conspiracy would change the regime in their own country at a cost of 300 bn USD and a potential of major nuclear fallout that may kill themselves. Yet the USA that already dropped nuclear bombs on Japan, burned Dresden, poisoned millions of Vietnamese children, had numerous elaborate plans of nuclear attack on USSR, in your eyes are always less culpable.

    That’s just bullshit. You are re-inventing a USSR that never existed. Several of my friends are kids of Russian emigrants. In the eighties, they used the notoriously long summer vacations (at least eight weeks) in the USSR to visit their relatives. They took home toilet paper, margarine, and bars of soap, because people could not get those items in the shabby third-world Soviet Union of the ’80s. Soviet troops in the Warsaw pact countries were bartering for basic supplies.
    Why would you lie to gullible Americans about stocks of masks etc.? I mean, everybody knows Russians like to boast (they have not much else going) but this is ridiculous…yours is a dirt-poor and run-down country despite all its natural resources, and everybody besides Russians has a hunch why that is (pssst…bears, bosses, and balalaikas are cliché, but Vodka is a real problem, and you know it!)

    The problem with Organized Jewry is that it thinks that the Torah/Tanakh has not "ended".

    Anyone who thinks it "ended" is " anti-Semitic".
    https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2017/01/04/tiny-martin-luther-toy-triggers-claims-anti-semitism/96150612/


    All was apparently going fine until Micha Brumlik, a retired Frankfurt University education professor and respected Jewish commentator, wrote last June that the popular toy was “anti-Jewish, if not even anti-Semitic.”

    The problem, he said, was the inscription on the open pages of the Bible that the Playmobil Luther holds. On the left is written in German: “Books of the Old Testament. END.” The right page says: “The New Testament, translated by Doctor Martin Luther.”

    Why was the word “END” written so prominently, Brumlik asked. “Theologically, there can be no other reason than that the ‘Old Testament’ and its validity should be seen as ended and superseded,” he wrote in the Berlin newspaper tageszeitung.
     

    This is how and why the Torah/Tanakh is endlessly recycled in our time.

    https://www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/961561/jewish/Positive-Commandment-187.htm


    Since these seven nations no longer exist4 a person could think that this commandment is not noheg l'doros [for all generations5]. But only someone who does not understand the concept of noheg l'doros would think such a thing. A command that can be fulfilled without being limited to a certain time is considered noheg l'doros, because if the act would become possible in any generation, the mitzvah would apply. When G‑d will totally destroy the descendants of Amalek and remove them for all time — as will be speedily in our days, as G‑d (exalted be He) promised,6 "I will wipe out the memory of Amalek" — will we say that the mitzvah to wipe out the memory of Amalek7 was not noheg l'doros? This is not true, for in any generation when one finds a descendant of Amalek, he must be killed. The same applies to this mitzvah of killing all descendants of the seven nations, which is a milchemes mitzvah. In every generation we are required to uproot them and search afterthem down to the last individual. We did this until King David destroyed them completely, with the survivors being scattered and assimilated among the nations until they disappeared.

    That is the biggest, the most dangerous problem of our time. The Zionists think that the Torah/Tanakh (Old Testament) has not "Ended". Climate Change is a joke compared to the mania the "For all generations Torah/Tanakh Reenactments".

    We will know soon enough. The number of new cases is showing signs of leveling off in many places and (hopefully) should crash as quickly as it grew once R naught is cut below 1. But keep in mind that as soon as you loosen the strings (unless you do something different the next time) R naught goes right back up again and the cycle begins all over.

    So the question is, what is the "something different" that will allow us to end the quarantine by permanently putting R nought below 1? Unless you do something different, even 1 guy getting on a plane or a ship (maybe he's an idiot, maybe he's still asymptomatic and isn't even doing something stupid) can re-ignite the whole thing over again. This is what China is dealing with now. Ultimately, the only permanent solution (and no one knows whether this will even be possible) is to develop enough herd immunity or vaccination that the virus becomes extinct in the wild like smallpox. Good luck with all of our anti-vaxxers.

    Or else this is going to become a permanent feature like the seasonal flu. After the Spanish Flu killed everyone who was vulnerable, it never really went away, it just ran out of people to kill. Maybe we are going to have a situation in the future where, as a result of this, life expectancy is going to be chopped by a couple of years (on average - some people get decades chopped off) but the people who survive are generally going to be a healthier (and slightly younger) group. And maybe of the people who are left, they will get the message that you had better control your obesity or else you're gonna die, and not in 20 years due to heart disease, but next winter when the Covid season kicks in again.

    Frankly, unless you are one of the unlucky ones, this is not the worst thing to happen to a society. The other day the NY Times had an article about how they might have to triage ventilator access (naturally the main thing that doctors were worried about was getting sued) and they gave the example of an 85 year old advanced Alzheimer's patient and should she get the ventilator if it was needed for a previously healthy 25 year old? Or should they do a coin toss or something so as not to play favorites (maybe God forbid the 85 year old is a minority - then it would be racis'). In a sane society (and BTW this is not just me saying this - a whole bunch of medical professionals commented to the same effect) this should not even be a question. This person's life is effectively over and for her soul to leave her body would be a blessing and a relief. We don't do euthanasia in the US for certain reasons but nowhere in the Bible does it say that you have to put senile 85 years on a ventilator at all, let alone when they are needed for a younger person. If we are lucky (and I doubt we will be lucky) this pandemic will cause us to reassess our priorities in this and many other areas where we have been doing really stupid things and have created all sorts of perverse incentives to the point where when you turn on the TV, they are no longer even trying to sell you any manufactured goods, just medical services and legal services for when you were dissatisfied with the medical services. This is not a basis for a healthy economy.

    Trump needs to come up with a convincing response re: Corona, his doubts notwithstanding.

    Bernie will make this about the health care system, while Biden may ridiculously try the leadership angle – and if too many people get infected/ die*, they will succeed. Pence admitting a shortage of test kits on TV is very bad, for instance. Fear is a primal response, Trump is usually instinctively handling those very well, his response so far is surpringly ill-advised.
