One recurrent element in Sabrina Rubin Erdely’s blood libel in Rolling Stone on the University of Virginia is her resentment of how much the blond and tanned students respect UVA’s founder Thomas Jefferson. Sabrina may have lost the battle to the tune of a $2 million libel judgment against her, but her war on Jefferson is going well. From the Richmond Times-Dispatch:
U.Va. faculty, students ask Sullivan not to quote Jefferson
TIMES-DISPATCH
Posted: Monday, November 14, 2016 11:32 am
From staff reportsUniversity of Virginia President Teresa Sullivan is being asked to refrain from quoting Thomas Jefferson because of his racist beliefs, according to The Cavalier Daily.
A letter, signed by 469 faculty members and students, was sent to Sullivan on Nov. 11 protesting the use of a Jefferson quotation in her email calling for unity after the presidential election, the student newspaper reported.
“We would like for our administration to understand that although some members of this community may have come to this university because of Thomas Jefferson’s legacy, others of us came here in spite of it,” the letter read. “For many of us, the inclusion of Jefferson quotations in these e-mails undermines the message of unity, equality and civility that you are attempting to convey.”
In her message after the election, Sullivan said that “Thomas Jefferson wrote to a friend that University of Virginia students ‘are not of ordinary significance only: they are exactly the persons who are to succeed to the government of our country, and to rule its future enmities, its friendships and fortunes.’”
She encouraged “today’s U.Va. students to embrace that responsibility.” …
Lawrie Balfour, a politics professor who signed the letter, told the newspaper that those who signed the letter were grateful that Sullivan responded to anxiety following the election but felt it was the wrong moment to turn to Jefferson because of recent incidents of identity-related hate speech.
“I’ve been here 15 years,” Balfour said. “Again and again, I have found that at moments when the community needs reassurance and Jefferson appears, it undoes I think the really important work that administrators and others are trying to do.”
The slave-holding third president was U.Va’s founder.
Jefferson’s design for UVA with buildings around a grassy quad has remained immensely influential in campus design.

I wonder what, if any, effect a Trump administration can have on this sort of nonsense.
If you had, you'd have noticed that this stuff is already on the run. It is going to take a while to purge the witch hunt hysteria, incidences of it have to happen for it to be purged, that is how trends end.
Stop noticing this stuff. Start noticing where this sort of PC nonsense is getting shouted down by people on that side of the political spectrum, acknowledging the huge mistake all this mob action stuff is.
It is all over the place now and the election is only a week past.
Again, look back through my comments, I've prognosticated that SJW terrorism, and internet mob actions in general, will fall into disrepute after the Trump victory.

I always suspected quads were racist, since that’s where the Blonde Students go on sunny days to Appropriate Melanin.
Campus eateries will be required to decline any payment tendered using $2 bills, with tenderors (a neutral designation to preserve Latinx, Blackx, Dykex and such sensibilities) reported immediately to the appropriate authorities.
So they’re happy to attend a university founded and designed by a slave-holder, but it’s racist to mention his name?

Republican politicians surrendered on the culture wars a very long time ago. Republicans are in full control of the legislatures and governor's mansions in ~30 states. If they wanted to use their control of the purse strings to do something they certainly could.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt never should be quoted either. He locked up all the Japanese immigrants into concentration camps.
Anyone who thinks this republic can be salvaged is insane at best.

I'm not talking about some civil war fantasy. I simply mean European Americans doing what Jews (and Mormons) have always done. Set up European American business groups, charities, schools/cultural centers, lobbies, think tanks, etc. Look out for your own. Promote your people's interests.
When a politician, member of the media, academic or business person from another race/ethnicity/religion says something disparaging against European Americans, you fight back and you fight back hard. You also don't forget. I want that guy (or business or organization) to still be having problems a decade or two later because of that comment.
Give European Americans who want to preserve their people and culture some place to go, some place that will protect them. If a guy gets fired for standing up for European Americans, get him a job. (For example, Jason Richwine would have immediately found a job in a think tank in my world.) You also let those European Americans who don't want to preserve their people and culture know that they aren't welcome. No violence, just exclusion.
A peaceful European nation within a multi-racial, multi-ethnic, multi-religious country. How that country-in-name-only goes won't be that important. We'll have our nation that insulates us.
One needs only look at the demographics of the children being born today to understand that the United States is finished as a middle-class, civic-minded country. Trump or no Trump, European Americans - my children - need to do what races throughout history have done: Look out for their own and push for as much self-determination as possible under the circumstances.

Easy solution. Fire all the faculty that don’t want any part of Jefferson’s legacy and expel any students who feel the same. They can attend one of the many fine universities founded and funded by left wing black lesbians. There’s…um..let me think…wait..i got it…nope.
Let me quote myself:
We should not give an inch.
Have they been less or more useful since slavery ?
I saw this article earlier today. Basically what happened is that the female president wrote an email massaging the little darlings attending UVA, and then a black female faculty member used the opportunity to gotcha the president. That’s basically all there is to this.

Part of the problem is that today’s leftist college students are the product of three generations of radicals. You start with 2 people who met up at some ’60s protest, and they had kids in the early ’70s. These kids in turn met more radical leftists at college and married them, and in turn had kids in the mid-to-latter half of the ’90s. Today’s college kids are the children of two previous generations of these nutjobs, and any dog breeder could have told you what’s going to happen.
Their genes are going downhill. Assortive mating of a type that did not exist in earlier generations is producing people with concentrated neurotic tendencies, poor reality checkers, proneness to hysteria, and emotionally instability. I’d diagnose a lot of these protesters as having borderline or histrionic personality disorders. They’re escalating their behaviors because they don’t feel ‘real’ or validated as people unless they’re getting attention at a riot.
At least the radicals of the 1960s had a sane goal. The men didn’t want to be drafted and die in the Vietnam war, and I can understand that. Who’d want to be killed in some godforsaken place right when the US is beginning to produce sex, drugs, rock and roll, and economic prosperity?
But the grandkids? They’re protesting not being given purple markers so they can draw out their anguish at Trump being elected president. And about trannies not having access to womens’ bathrooms.
How have the mighty fallen.
Low status people worry about where their next meal is coming from.
Medium status people worry about whether or not their clothes match.
High status people invent things to worry about.These pampered status seekers are trying to one-up each other by being more upset by even less reality. It should end well.
Don't forget the drugs. I bet a not insignificant number of those kids conceived from late 60s to early 70s were getting dosed with LSD in the womb.

Academia is the center of the swamp. Somebody needs to tell him.
Africa had slaves. Hell, it began there, and Africans have been the most prolific enslavers across history. I’m sick of hearing about how evil whitey is because ~1% of American whites owned slaves >150 years ago, yet we hear nothing of African slavery, Middle Eastern slavery, Asian slavery – all of which still go on. Nothing about white slaves and white indentured servants. Nothing about how black slavers captured and sold the African slaves into slavery in the first place. Nothing about whitey being the last to practice slavery and the first to abolish it (and actively try to abolish it elsewhere).
It seems if we are going to damn whites over slavery, then logic would dictate we should more strongly damn people of every other race as well.
Calls to mind one of my favorite quotes: “…I have sworn upon the altar of god eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man.” – Jefferson to Dr. Benjamin Rush, September 23, 1800.
That’s on the dome of the Jefferson Memorial, which is one of my favorite places to visit in DC. So peaceful to just hang out there and think.

Lets think this through. What is the logical end game? UVA will become a Whitey Free Zone, and will be Latinx or Xer or Black-Black-Black or whatever. But Whitey Free. With no Whites allowed and particularly Thomas Jefferson.
Now, White chicks will find that attractive; they are the mainstay of Rap Music, Rappers, etc. Just check out any gossip mag for twenty seconds while in line at the grocery store. But White dudes, who go on to actually do things, and make money, will avoid that Blackety-Black-Black, Xer, Latinx stuff like the plague. They will go elsewhere, online, to a few elite schools not stupid enough to commit seppuku for the sake of non-White students who will never give money or make decisions steering money to the school.
Its like the tech stocks all cratering. Amazon faces the wrath of Trump for Bezos shilling for Hillary! with lots of anti-trust action. Same with Fakebook, Twatter, etc. Trump owes them nothing but payback and the man is quite good at that task.
The Democratic Party is the same. All Black, all the time. No White candidate can win anymore, it has to be a non-White and very rapidly the old White dudes and er, um, er, … whatever will end up dumped out like Hillary! and replaced by someone like Keith Ellison X or whatever.
Sooner or later the Moneyball approach to College Admissions will create big winners who refuse to bow down to various non-White agitators because it kills the revenue stream and achievers admitted; and lots of big losers who in fact do such stupid things.
The same thing will happen to the Democratic Party. As the All Blacks, American Edition, they’re unlikely to generate more than 20% of the White vote.
The idea to kick Whitey Out and ride the Brown Horde to rule is over; Non Whites want their own leaders not some aging White harpy. So there’s no route for ambitious young White men and even women in the Democratic Party. Or likely, UVA.

This assortative mating thing may be a bigger deal than people anticipate. Before feminism nerds couldn’t go around chasing nerd women and producing kids with autism. It’s probably true with activist types, as you suggest. Of course it’s nurture as well as nature, as meeting their original demands means they have to push society further and further in the direction of the Nanny State to have something to protest.
Similarly I kind of wonder if the shunting of high-IQ types away from small towns into college deprives much of rural America of leaders. Certainly these areas seem to be declining, and while deindustrialization plays a huge part, I wonder if it’s the whole picture. Quite a few articles on West Virginia have talked of ‘adverse selection’.
It could be that we’re separating things that are meant to be together, that forcing a fair number of Lena Dunham-Willie Robertson or Joni Ernst-Woody Allen matings through isolation keeps the extremes from getting too extreme.

Germans in Wisconsin, Swedens in Minnesota, Scotch-Irish in the South, Greeks in NY, Poles in Chicago, and etc all got along. It was enough that they pledged to the flag and learned to speak English and admired George Washington and Lincoln.
The real odd group out was the Jews. They just had more drive, talent, ambition, and will. And craftiness, hostility, and contempt.

Swedes, Greeks, Poles, etc, were never numerous enough to pose a threat to Anglo hegemony."I think Germans would have assimilated even if there was no WWI factor. And in fact, most had.Besides, in demeanor and habits, Germans were more waspy than the Scotch-Irish were.It's the Scotch-Irish that were acting like this:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3C6n3nGXP8The main German threat was not ethnic but ideological as good number of them were socialists.Perhaps it was the crushing of the Left that had the real long-term effect on controlling German political power."Rather more than that. The pre-60′s WASP elite worked quite hard to make sure that immigrants absorbed Anglo norms and beliefs."In a way, that was the problem. As there was a white-bread element in Wasp culture, it pressured non-Anglos to lose their sense of roots and become 'bland'. Blandness, like a vacuum, calls out to be filled.So, as white ethnics became more Anglo-ized, they were more vulnerable to fads and fashions since they lost their roots. So, Anglo-ization hastened Liberalism.Look at Ortho Jews who cling to culture. More likely to be conservative.
But waspized Jews became more Liberal.In a way, the pressure to Anglo-ize is still present. It's just that wasp power, in fusion with Jewish power, is less about Anglo-ness than about PC-ness, MLK-ness, and homo-ness that are the new religion of America.America today applies just as much assimilationist pressures as in the past. It's just that today's Anglos are more eager for newcomers to worship Harvey Milk than George Washington.
These PC Anglos do NOT want newcomers to cling to their original culture as such conservatism goes against PC.PC multi-cultism has NO TOLERANCE for newcomers who say "I reject 'gay marriage' as an affront to my cultural values."Multi-cultism only tolerates and celebrates superficial stuff like food and costumes. It has no interest in the actual moral and intellectual underpinnings of other cultures.Anglo has gone homo and pressures all groups to ass-imilate to homo-worship.Replies: @Jefferson
New arrivals lose their culture and gain nothing.
When America had a compelling and powerful narrative about the discoverers, founders, settlers, and builders, the newcomers might lose their ancestral culture and take on something meaningfully and proudly American. Even if not Anglo, they could take some of that Anglo spirit. It's like there was a time when even non-Romans felt special to be part of Roman civilization and Roman laws.
But once the Plymouth Rock narrative got subverted and vilified by Ellis Island and Selma narrative, much of American History is about shame than achievement and pride.
So, newcomers not only lose their original culture(which holds cultural and historical meaning) but take on an American Culture that is all about virtue-signaling whites taking a big crap on their own ancestors, history, and culture. It's utterly meaningless. What is there to be learned from whites who say 'we suck'?
Now, the problem is not the Ellis Island and Selma narratives in and of themselves. They too are compelling narratives. The problem is how those narratives came to supplant the Plymouth Rock narrative instead of continuing it.
Ellis Island was possible because of the earlier narrative of discovery and development. And Selma narrative was possible because America was founded on certain principles that found its full fruition for blacks in the Civil Rights movement.
After all, even MLK got his ideas from white tradition, not black African tradition that is all about chucking spears at hippos and running like a mofo when a beast you missed ran after you. And there no concept of liberty and human rights in Africa.
So, MLK should be seen as redemptive son of Founding Fathers. White America made promises but didn't fulfill them but it happened with Civil Rights. Blacks were denied the promise for too long, but still, Civil Rights was possible because the seeds of that promise had been planted on American soil. If US had been settled by any other people, there wouldn't have been the ideal of liberty and equality under the law.
But instead of MLK being seen as son who redeemed the ideals of the Founders, he is called the new Founding Father by Time mag. As for Jefferson, let's just denounce him as a 'slave owner'. But did blacks found or lay down the ideals of America? No, in their civil rights movement, they only furthered what had been founded by others. Black leaders built on and repaired the work of the whites who had laid down the foundations.
There could have been continuance from Plymouth to 1776 to Gettysburg to Ellis Island to Selma and beyond, but instead we got an ideological coup that said FU to all the narrative prior to Ellis Island.
This America is totally amnesiac, contemptuous of its own heritage, and stupid.
Worse, the rise of Pop Culture and celebrity vanity as main obsession of Americans has turned America Culture into a mania not only about the PC Current Year but the insipid Current Queer of one of umpteenth gender identity.
So, what do new arrivals get from this America? They lose their own identity and take on fantasy culture of Hollywood and hateful vitriol of anti-history as Americanism.
I think maybe hyphenization of Americanism would have been better for everyone had it caught on earlier. Maybe Anglos went too far in Anglo-Americanizing the newcomers.
Before the rise of PC, most cultural identities were conservative. So, a hyphenized American was bound to be more conservative due to ties to old world. Also, US is essentially an extension of Europe. It is not a new civilization. So, if an average American spoke English and learned about George Washington but was also encouraged to maintain a sense of his ancestral ties, he might actually have been more conservative.
Indeed, the reason why Catholics resisted social change more effectively than protestants did was because they had a connection to Vatican and tradition. That served to counter-balance the influence of US pop culture and fashion-fad-politics.
I think of a Lithuanian-American guy I knew in college. He was all-American patriot and all that. But he had profound knowledge of Lithuanian history, culture, and etc. He even spoke the language perfectly. This made him more conservative, not less. He appreciated the idea of roots and heritage.
In contrast, I see some totally Americanized Polish-Americans, and by golly... their only obsession is the Current Year and the Current Queer.
unchecked, the internal logic of PC eventually leads to year zero – inevitably
the only solution is a counter revolution where it gets burned with fire

I think the leftist attacks on UVA as being too "blond and tan" has more to do with its status as a relatively conservative elite school more than it being too pale.

Key word from Lawrie Balfour:
Definition of spite:
noun
1.
a malicious, usually petty, desire to harm, annoy, frustrate, or humiliate another person; bitter ill will; malice.
2.
a particular instance of such an attitude or action; grudge.
3.
Obsolete. something that causes vexation; annoyance.
verb (used with object), spited, spiting.
4.
to treat with spite or malice.
5.
to annoy or thwart, out of spite.
6.
to fill with spite; vex; offend.
Lawrie Balfour, a tenured professor drawing a comfortable salary (with a likely very nice pension at the end of it all) admitted her purpose is to be malicious to the institution that employs her. Very strange.
Her profile:
http://politics.virginia.edu/lawrie-balfour/
If she had stated that their shared purpose was to change the way people think through moral and ethical arguments in good faith, through a charitable Christian understanding that love for all should be our guiding principle, I could understand that, and maybe be persuaded. As it stands, it appears she (and others sympathetic to her) only have malice and hate in their hearts, from a simply different racist perspective. How does this not end in a bitter trail of tears?
Some people consider Jefferson a leftist for his time, so I think your point needs further refinement.
You get all kinds of weird alliances when you go back far enough--William Jennings Bryan was a Christian socialist, New York City was a hotbed of pro-Confederate sentiment in the Civil War... coalitions form and reform. Heck, back in the early 60s the white working class, the very people who elected Trump, were Democrats.

“Kushner’s father was convicted and jailed for the “usual” white collar crimes by Christie when he was New Jersey’s federal prosecutor. This didn’t endear Kushner to Christie. ”
Charles Kushner wasn’t just convicted of the “usual” white collar crimes:
Major Donor Admits Hiring Prostitute to Smear Witness
“The biggest political donor in New Jersey pleaded guilty on Wednesday to trying to compromise a witness in a campaign finance investigation by setting him up with a prostitute and secretly videotaping the sexual encounter.”
Kushner (pere), formerly a major donor to the Democratic party, was also involved in the McGreevy affair, sponsoring a work visa for McGreevy’s Israeli boy-toy. He sounds like a class-act all round.
Interestingly, the Kushner Companies are the owners of 666 5th Avenue. Now it takes some guts to buy that property (or some connections, anyway).
“While there are some very good Trump appointees (Bannon, Kobach, Stephen Miller), these will most likely be outweighed by Kushner’s influence through DJT’s paternal affection for his daughter.”
It would be a shame if we narrowly avoided electing Lady MacBeth, only to have elected King Lear instead.

German culture in America was crushed during WWI. Swedes, Greeks, Poles, etc, were never numerous enough to pose a threat to Anglo hegemony. Rather more than that. The pre-60's WASP elite worked quite hard to make sure that immigrants absorbed Anglo norms and beliefs.Replies: @Anon, @Anon, @Ivy
“Scots-Irish are Anglo.”
When we say Wasp, we really mean East Coast Brahmin types, not the moon-shine swilling fellers who hunt possum and name their kids bubba and lyle.
How many Boston Brahmin families named their kid ‘bubba’ or spoke a funny kind of dialect?
Scotch-Irish types were neanderthal version of the Anglo.
“German culture in America was crushed during WWI. Swedes, Greeks, Poles, etc, were never numerous enough to pose a threat to Anglo hegemony.”
I think Germans would have assimilated even if there was no WWI factor. And in fact, most had.
Besides, in demeanor and habits, Germans were more waspy than the Scotch-Irish were.
It’s the Scotch-Irish that were acting like this:
The main German threat was not ethnic but ideological as good number of them were socialists.
Perhaps it was the crushing of the Left that had the real long-term effect on controlling German political power.
“Rather more than that. The pre-60′s WASP elite worked quite hard to make sure that immigrants absorbed Anglo norms and beliefs.”
In a way, that was the problem. As there was a white-bread element in Wasp culture, it pressured non-Anglos to lose their sense of roots and become ‘bland’. Blandness, like a vacuum, calls out to be filled.
So, as white ethnics became more Anglo-ized, they were more vulnerable to fads and fashions since they lost their roots. So, Anglo-ization hastened Liberalism.
Look at Ortho Jews who cling to culture. More likely to be conservative.
But waspized Jews became more Liberal.
In a way, the pressure to Anglo-ize is still present. It’s just that wasp power, in fusion with Jewish power, is less about Anglo-ness than about PC-ness, MLK-ness, and homo-ness that are the new religion of America.
America today applies just as much assimilationist pressures as in the past. It’s just that today’s Anglos are more eager for newcomers to worship Harvey Milk than George Washington.
These PC Anglos do NOT want newcomers to cling to their original culture as such conservatism goes against PC.
PC multi-cultism has NO TOLERANCE for newcomers who say “I reject ‘gay marriage’ as an affront to my cultural values.”
Multi-cultism only tolerates and celebrates superficial stuff like food and costumes. It has no interest in the actual moral and intellectual underpinnings of other cultures.
Anglo has gone homo and pressures all groups to ass-imilate to homo-worship.
Bill Clinton will no doubt explain his parents were honoring George Jefferson of the TV show The Jeffersons when they gave him his dubious-in-some-circles middle name, just as Hillary said she was named after intrepid mountaineer Sir Edmund Percival Hillary.

Right. As long as Trump is driving Pubis, it’s should be a good thing. It depends on how uppity Pubis gets. He may balk at serving Trump’s agenda. On the other hand, he should already have a pretty good idea of Trump’s agenda going in, and he took the job anyway. But maybe his plan is to “civilize” Trump. But that’s risky, because if he fails, he could wind up tainted. Maybe he’s just signed on to Trump’s agenda? We’ll have to wait and see.

All great people who accomplish something did something sinful or horrible. That’s no reason to commit suicide.
Who stands to benefit when the last vestiges of the USA belonging to the grand Christian European heritage are wiped out? I mean the fight is on and they are winning because when I typed that last statement I guiltily asked myself, “wait, does it make me a racist or white supremacist or something for typing that sentence?” I find that I have to remind myself quite often about the existence of Japan and China and other nations that are organized around the interests of a common people in order to continue to exist: My self doubt is then assuaged. Of course a commonality among people is a basic requirement for an organized nation state even to be justified, let alone succeed. This is obvious, right?
Off topic but did anyone watch SNL’s opening Requiem for Hillary the past Saturday? The SNL cast clearly took Tuesday’s results hard. In a skit with a surprise appearance from Chris Rock the cast joked about how much they’ve been in a bubble and the people on the coasts know nothing about how people in the interior feel about politics. But this was long obvious to all of us. I guess there never was much hope in these east coast types ever having anticipated the fissures in American society that would be introduced by extremely rapidly changing demographics. They still thought that America would look past this huge divide to elect Hillary out of solidarity with Destiny, or the Right Side Of History, or something.
Does the cast of SNL and others like them still not get that this over-arching desire to have the first black president, the first female president (even to the possible detriment of other societal issues caused by the affirmative action candidate. Hillary would’ve done permanent damage to the middle class’s ability to stand up to the globalist oligarchs, for instance) is a fairly quaint feature of our culture? Since we are in the throes of dismantling all remaining vestiges of the privilege granted to this distinct European-American people by our forefathers and effectively advertising to the world “We are an equal opportunity immigration destination”, we will ironically not much longer be able to grant “privilege” to any of our nation’s prerogatives, whether they be progressive or conservative in nature, let alone those that are unique, quaint and basically unnecessary to our nation’s survival like having a female president.
I hope this is a wake up call for everyone. Hey, on the upside, SNL was finally funny again thanks to David Chapelle as their guest host:
Fact: Jews disproportionately benefited from slavery (though not to the extent NOI claims), then became the staunchest champions of “civil rights” less than a century later.

Complaining about Thomas Jefferson at a university is an easy way to gain attention and sympathy on the world’s stage. If you have some bitterness in life, you didn’t find true love, you don’t have the career or status that you wanted, the world normally doesn’t care, you won’t be featured on global news. Leading a university movement against a sacred figure like Thomas Jefferson is just an easy way to do something that has world news sympathy.
Taking these complaints seriously at face value is a mistake. Just like terrorists are often just lashing out for attention a lot of these protests are the same thing.

Steve,
Sorry you’ve been downgraded from a preeminent IQ journalist to a blogger. Life ain’t fair.
Yeah, one of the most interesting things to track in the aftermath of this election will be the fate of the media. It has become well and truly unhinged. Breitbart will certainly rise in importance. But it clearly needs to clean up its act so that it can be seen as a broad, reasonably balanced source of news, rather than as a purely partisan outlet. There’s of course a place for such outlets, but there is much such a publication can’t do that needs to be done. Fox News is perhaps a good model for a broader Breitbart, with, of course, necessary changes to reflect a Trumpian take on politics.
Some of today’s prominent media outlets must be awfully concerned as to their place in the new Trumpian world. The NY Times must wonder what its access and influence might be in a nation controlled at all political levels by Republicans, and by Trump at the top. And it can’t stop itself from engaging in the most egregiously partisan behavior — it’s too deeply in the grip of its own dogmatic beliefs.
Even a publication like People must wonder where it’s going to go for the stupid things it does. No First Family would be better suited to be fodder for its high society porn, given the beauty and appeal of so many of the Trump family. But they went all-in on a vicious attack on Trump, with the frumpy reporter from People declaring that many years ago he forced his tongue down her throat — while not of course in any way pursuing it at the time — and the magazine declaring its full support of her. I’m sure when they published this attack, they all held it unthinkable he might ever win. I wonder how much regret they have now?

Beinart wants to signal to the world that Jews are emphatically not on the side of other whites. But, then, how is it in any way surprising if those whites see Jews as a group to be a force arrayed against their interests, and deeply resent them?
If one wants to communicate that Jews shouldn’t be treated as opponents of other whites, that such a belief is a “canard”, the last thing one would want to do would be to suggest that Jews are united as a group against the interests of other whites.
But here we have Beinart doing just that.

They used to. And why do you think that some don't any more? Did they "evolve" as your types like to say? No. They've been punished for showing any racial solidarity.
The minute that whites realize that they can show pride in being European and have some back-up, a great number will do so. Many won't. So what. That's their choice. However, if you think that in a world where European Americans are free to choose between joining their fellow whites or being shunned by them and thus being forced to spend their time with the Coalition of the Fringes that a very large majority of European Americans won't choose their own, you're crazy.
For decades, liberal whites have been able to have their cake and eat it too. They can trash on their fellow Badwhites while still getting to work with them instead of blacks and browns, send their kids to school with Badwhite kids instead of blacks and browns, etc. End that deal, and you'll see many Goodwhite children choose our side.
The vast majority of whites don't want to be excluded from other whites.
"Feel free to exercise your liberty to carve out that niche for you and your like-minded friends."
That's the idea. Granted, at the moment, it's just that, an idea. But it has a chance, and that possibility is terrifying to people like you because you know what life without pliable whites would like like. Liberia anyone.

If even a third of European Americans over the course of the next couple of generations (this is a very long process) choose this path - and it likely will be more - that's 60 million people - about the size of France or Britain. I think that I can live with that.
As to the other European Americans who choose not associate with us, what about them? They can do what they want. However, as they look at our neighborhoods, our schools, our baseball leagues, our business clubs, our community centers, etc, and compare those to the run-down, dangerous public counter-parts filled with people who neither look like them nor act like them, I suspect that they will quickly change their tune. If not, good for them. Enjoy the multi-culti world. It's just not my world.
God didn't create the United States. God didn't create the current system in this country. Like everything else in history, this too shall pass.

That's what they told Trump. Probably told Jews the same thing about a homeland a hundred years ago.

Good luck, Corvinus. And I mean that. Showing pride in your own people and choosing the live, work and play with them doesn't mean hating other peoples. I wish you well. I just don't want you in my world, so I will begin the long process of shutting you out. Maybe I'll fail, but at least I tried.

It's why they're punished so hard. If they ever get the chance to separate from you, they'll rejoice and move in droves.

No doubt about that and his side of the Roosevelts started marrying Anglos long before Teddy’s side, TR’s father was the first to marry outside the dutch, and remember FDR’s wife was Teddy’s Neice.
That said, especially with the wealth coming from the dutch side being lucky enough to have real estate in NYC, the surname and marrying back into a less mixed side, I’m assuming something that reminds me of a lot of Indians i know in OK. Most tribes here have a blood quanta for membership, but it can be 1/32 or 1/64 or even less in a lot of them. The odd thing is there is a inverse relation between Indian ID and Actual blood. The full and half bloods are Americans and then Indians, the mostly whites are Indians then Americans. That said i don’t know intimate details about him, I’ve read a few bios of TR, but none of him.

While Rinse Pubis as CoS isn't what I'd call a good sign, it isn't what I'd call a bad sign, either. Trump's going to have to work with the GOP. With regard to Pubis as CoS, the question is, who will be driving whom? I see no evidence at all that it will be Rinse driving Trump, so I figure a wait and see attitude is best. Right. As long as Trump is driving Pubis, it's should be a good thing. It depends on how uppity Pubis gets. He may balk at serving Trump's agenda. On the other hand, he should already have a pretty good idea of Trump's agenda going in, and he took the job anyway. But maybe his plan is to "civilize" Trump. But that's risky, because if he fails, he could wind up tainted. Maybe he's just signed on to Trump's agenda? We'll have to wait and see. Wasn't Thomas Jefferson, and weren't all of the Founders, leftist for their time? Oy vey. That would be perfect. You know what might be even better? "Yes, I thought long and hard about removing MLK's bust from the Oval Office, because of his horrible treatment of and abuse to women, but then I decided to keep it there anyway." Then he could refer back to that throughout his presidency, when challenged to repudiate this or that. 1) Publicly reinforce MLK's horrible treatment of women a couple hundred times, and 2) use him as an excuse to refuse leftist demands. Common sense suggests blood has a leg up, but also that married daughters get less influence, because their husbands tend to have more influence over them.Replies: @Steve Sailer, @Anon
If Trump has any sense, he’ll loan the MLK bust permanently to the Museum of African American History and Culture where tourists can look at it, and put Churchill back in his office. That way he doesn’t have to see MLK’s ugly mug, yet all the tourists will be thinking Trump’s honored blacks (because they got to see the MLK bust with their own eyes! SJW squeal!). That would solve the problem. Any future president who has funny ideas about putting MLK back in the White House will have to deal with the shrieks of outrage from SJWers about it being stolen from its proper place in a museum honoring blacks. In the long term, it can be quietly donated to the museum and forgotten about.

I have no idea how Obama feels about the election but isn't it entirely possible he is happy Hillary lost?
Aside from the bad blood between them her destruction also brings down Bill's reputation leaving Obama's legacy as relatively benign in liberal eyes.

I thought the same thing, too. I feel like O is relieved she lost ( I mean, the progs chose him over her 8 years ago!) because Bill & she just went nuts collecting so much cash from unsavory monarchies and autocracies all over the Middle East; and getting the nefarious speech fees from Wall Street – it was creepy and tacky. So stunning how Hillary supporters were fine with that, and our 15-year-old wars & the national debt, btw. And, these dumb-ass, privileged (they need to check their multicultural privilege :)!, protesters burning flags and sh*t while US soldiers die overseas fighting for their pathetic freedom to ransack cities. The soldiers, of course, being the children of the Deplorables! No, when Bill trashed Obamacare just weeks before the election, I saw that as a sign that Hillary would try get awesome glory by recreating Hillarycare…I think that Obama was more worried about Hillary trashing his legacy, rather than Donald. The Clintons lost and I am very relieved. I can’t believe how much I’ve enjoyed all the cringe-worthy soul-searching by pundits and their ilk this past week. It’s a little harder to stomach the breathtaking hubris, hypocrisy, the ridiculous “call to arms” of my suburban, mostly female friends, calling everybody and their mother, racist. I’m exhausted, yawn. It’s time to avoid, avoid, avoid and clean my house of superfluous things.
These dickheads are still spewing their anti-American bile. The sheer objective stupidity of it is enough to find irritating, let alone the explicit Kulturkampf against “Western” Man. Thomas Jefferson wasn’t just a man of his time. He was a supreme example of the Enlightenment polymath. And these liars now want to censor the man who founded not only the Republic, but the very university which makes the mistake of paying them?
I think not. The wheel of history is turning.
These protesters are so loathsome…so privileged, so narrow-minded. It disgusts me that soldiers, now for 15 years, are fighting for the liberties of these arrogant, unpatriotic, undignified, lazy youth who would never have the guts to serve in the Army, Navy or Marines. If my sons did this, they know I would stop paying their tuition, and their entire inheritance would be turned over to Veterans (and animals!) in my will! But, my sons are not doing this regardless of their vote. I raised them well! And, frankly, because they are well-traveled and smart, they are a lot more intelligent/wordly/respectful than these privileged hypocrites on the streets of the USA.
The same logic was applied to the colonists by the British. Why couldn't they just accept paying a tax to help out the mother country?

Off topic but did anyone watch SNL's opening Requiem for Hillary the past Saturday? The SNL cast clearly took Tuesday's results hard. In a skit with a surprise appearance from Chris Rock the cast joked about how much they've been in a bubble and the people on the coasts know nothing about how people in the interior feel about politics. But this was long obvious to all of us. I guess there never was much hope in these east coast types ever having anticipated the fissures in American society that would be introduced by extremely rapidly changing demographics. They still thought that America would look past this huge divide to elect Hillary out of solidarity with Destiny, or the Right Side Of History, or something.
Does the cast of SNL and others like them still not get that this over-arching desire to have the first black president, the first female president (even to the possible detriment of other societal issues caused by the affirmative action candidate. Hillary would've done permanent damage to the middle class's ability to stand up to the globalist oligarchs, for instance) is a fairly quaint feature of our culture? Since we are in the throes of dismantling all remaining vestiges of the privilege granted to this distinct European-American people by our forefathers and effectively advertising to the world "We are an equal opportunity immigration destination", we will ironically not much longer be able to grant "privilege" to any of our nation's prerogatives, whether they be progressive or conservative in nature, let alone those that are unique, quaint and basically unnecessary to our nation's survival like having a female president.
I hope this is a wake up call for everyone. Hey, on the upside, SNL was finally funny again thanks to David Chapelle as their guest host:

The pre-60′s WASP elite worked quite hard to make sure that immigrants absorbed Anglo norms and beliefs."In a way, that was the problem. As there was a white-bread element in Wasp culture, it pressured non-Anglos to lose their sense of roots and become 'bland'. Blandness, like a vacuum, calls out to be filled.So, as white ethnics became more Anglo-ized, they were more vulnerable to fads and fashions since they lost their roots. So, Anglo-ization hastened Liberalism.Look at Ortho Jews who cling to culture. More likely to be conservative.
But waspized Jews became more Liberal.In a way, the pressure to Anglo-ize is still present. It's just that wasp power, in fusion with Jewish power, is less about Anglo-ness than about PC-ness, MLK-ness, and homo-ness that are the new religion of America.America today applies just as much assimilationist pressures as in the past. It's just that today's Anglos are more eager for newcomers to worship Harvey Milk than George Washington.

America is now the worst of all possible worlds when it comes to culture.
New arrivals lose their culture and gain nothing.
When America had a compelling and powerful narrative about the discoverers, founders, settlers, and builders, the newcomers might lose their ancestral culture and take on something meaningfully and proudly American. Even if not Anglo, they could take some of that Anglo spirit. It’s like there was a time when even non-Romans felt special to be part of Roman civilization and Roman laws.
But once the Plymouth Rock narrative got subverted and vilified by Ellis Island and Selma narrative, much of American History is about shame than achievement and pride.
So, newcomers not only lose their original culture(which holds cultural and historical meaning) but take on an American Culture that is all about virtue-signaling whites taking a big crap on their own ancestors, history, and culture. It’s utterly meaningless. What is there to be learned from whites who say ‘we suck’?
Now, the problem is not the Ellis Island and Selma narratives in and of themselves. They too are compelling narratives. The problem is how those narratives came to supplant the Plymouth Rock narrative instead of continuing it.
Ellis Island was possible because of the earlier narrative of discovery and development. And Selma narrative was possible because America was founded on certain principles that found its full fruition for blacks in the Civil Rights movement.
After all, even MLK got his ideas from white tradition, not black African tradition that is all about chucking spears at hippos and running like a mofo when a beast you missed ran after you. And there no concept of liberty and human rights in Africa.
So, MLK should be seen as redemptive son of Founding Fathers. White America made promises but didn’t fulfill them but it happened with Civil Rights. Blacks were denied the promise for too long, but still, Civil Rights was possible because the seeds of that promise had been planted on American soil. If US had been settled by any other people, there wouldn’t have been the ideal of liberty and equality under the law.
But instead of MLK being seen as son who redeemed the ideals of the Founders, he is called the new Founding Father by Time mag. As for Jefferson, let’s just denounce him as a ‘slave owner’. But did blacks found or lay down the ideals of America? No, in their civil rights movement, they only furthered what had been founded by others. Black leaders built on and repaired the work of the whites who had laid down the foundations.
There could have been continuance from Plymouth to 1776 to Gettysburg to Ellis Island to Selma and beyond, but instead we got an ideological coup that said FU to all the narrative prior to Ellis Island.
This America is totally amnesiac, contemptuous of its own heritage, and stupid.
Worse, the rise of Pop Culture and celebrity vanity as main obsession of Americans has turned America Culture into a mania not only about the PC Current Year but the insipid Current Queer of one of umpteenth gender identity.
So, what do new arrivals get from this America? They lose their own identity and take on fantasy culture of Hollywood and hateful vitriol of anti-history as Americanism.
I think maybe hyphenization of Americanism would have been better for everyone had it caught on earlier. Maybe Anglos went too far in Anglo-Americanizing the newcomers.
Before the rise of PC, most cultural identities were conservative. So, a hyphenized American was bound to be more conservative due to ties to old world. Also, US is essentially an extension of Europe. It is not a new civilization. So, if an average American spoke English and learned about George Washington but was also encouraged to maintain a sense of his ancestral ties, he might actually have been more conservative.
Indeed, the reason why Catholics resisted social change more effectively than protestants did was because they had a connection to Vatican and tradition. That served to counter-balance the influence of US pop culture and fashion-fad-politics.
I think of a Lithuanian-American guy I knew in college. He was all-American patriot and all that. But he had profound knowledge of Lithuanian history, culture, and etc. He even spoke the language perfectly. This made him more conservative, not less. He appreciated the idea of roots and heritage.
In contrast, I see some totally Americanized Polish-Americans, and by golly… their only obsession is the Current Year and the Current Queer.
"I’m not talking about some civil war fantasy. I simply mean European Americans doing what Jews (and Mormons) have always done. Set up European American business groups, charities, schools/cultural centers, lobbies, think tanks, etc. Look out for your own. Promote your people’s interests."

They used to. And why do you think that some don’t any more? Did they “evolve” as your types like to say? No. They’ve been punished for showing any racial solidarity.
The minute that whites realize that they can show pride in being European and have some back-up, a great number will do so. Many won’t. So what. That’s their choice. However, if you think that in a world where European Americans are free to choose between joining their fellow whites or being shunned by them and thus being forced to spend their time with the Coalition of the Fringes that a very large majority of European Americans won’t choose their own, you’re crazy.
For decades, liberal whites have been able to have their cake and eat it too. They can trash on their fellow Badwhites while still getting to work with them instead of blacks and browns, send their kids to school with Badwhite kids instead of blacks and browns, etc. End that deal, and you’ll see many Goodwhite children choose our side.
The vast majority of whites don’t want to be excluded from other whites.
“Feel free to exercise your liberty to carve out that niche for you and your like-minded friends.”
That’s the idea. Granted, at the moment, it’s just that, an idea. But it has a chance, and that possibility is terrifying to people like you because you know what life without pliable whites would like like. Liberia anyone.
“You are well within your freedom to disassociate yourself from reality.”
Jews have lasted for thousands of years by rejecting your reality. The Amish also are doing quite well.
There’s no commandment that says whites need to fade away. It’s up to us. God know blacks and Hispanics can’t stop us if we decide to close ranks. You guys are just props in the Goodwhite-Badwhite civil war. Don’t you know that?
“What happens when most whites rejects this proposition? How do you force them to “come around” your line of thinking?”
If even a third of European Americans over the course of the next couple of generations (this is a very long process) choose this path – and it likely will be more – that’s 60 million people – about the size of France or Britain. I think that I can live with that.
As to the other European Americans who choose not associate with us, what about them? They can do what they want. However, as they look at our neighborhoods, our schools, our baseball leagues, our business clubs, our community centers, etc, and compare those to the run-down, dangerous public counter-parts filled with people who neither look like them nor act like them, I suspect that they will quickly change their tune. If not, good for them. Enjoy the multi-culti world. It’s just not my world.
God didn’t create the United States. God didn’t create the current system in this country. Like everything else in history, this too shall pass. Indeed, no multi-racial, multi-ethnic, multi-religious country has ever survived too long without one group being in charge. (Heck, you typically only need one of those three to destroy a country, so truly and utterly screwed.)
“You go, girlfriend!”
That’s what they told Trump. Probably told Jews the same thing about a homeland a hundred years ago.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I need to start checking some things out and making some calls. Even if I fail, there will be others. Something has changed. And I for one am not going back.
Good luck, Corvinus. And I mean that. Showing pride in your own people and choosing the live, work and play with them doesn’t mean hating other peoples. I wish you well. I just don’t want you in my world, so I will begin the long process of shutting you out. Maybe I’ll fail, but at least I tried.
But the one thing that I know is that the vast – yes, the vast – majority of whites, even a large portion of Goodwhites, don’t want to be around blacks and Hispanics. They just don’t. It’s why they’re punished so hard. If they ever get the chance to separate from you, they’ll rejoice and move in droves.
You know that’s the truth, and all of your attempts at being clever, will never change that fact.
No, whites historically thought of themselves as being part of a European ethnic group. The Age of Imperialism (late 1800's) put into play this white vs. non-white meme.
"The minute that whites realize that they can show pride in being European and have some back-up, a great number will do so. Many won’t. So what."
Whites in America are mutts. They refer to themselves as Americans, not white Europeans. They are still mindful, however, of their heritage.
"That’s their choice. However, if you think that in a world where European Americans are free to choose between joining their fellow whites or being shunned by them and thus being forced to spend their time with the Coalition of the Fringes that a very large majority of European Americans won’t choose their own, you’re crazy."
You are assuming that whites will inevitably shun their fellow whites for not joining up with them against nonwhites.

How do you even define "badwhites and goodwhites"? Are you not saying that race is a social construct when insisting these groups exist?
"The vast majority of whites don’t want to be excluded from other whites."
Prove it. Give me hard core evidence of this phenomenon or retract.
"That’s the idea. Granted, at the moment, it’s just that, an idea. But it has a chance, and that possibility is terrifying to people like you because you know what life without pliable whites would like like. Liberia anyone."
Again, you assume that whites are going to be in lockstep with your idea. It hasn't been that way. Look at slavery. Badwhites overtook Goodwhites on this issue.
"Jews have lasted for thousands of years by rejecting your reality. The Amish also are doing quite well."
Exceptions to the rule. Unique circumstances.
"God know blacks and Hispanics can’t stop us if we decide to close ranks."
God promotes good will among all men. Race is not one's uniform in His eyes. Don't you know that?
"You guys are just props in the Goodwhite-Badwhite civil war. Don’t you know that?"
There is no civil war between whites. It is conjured up by the Alt Right.
"If even a third of European Americans over the course of the next couple of generations (this is a very long process) choose this path – and it likely will be more – that’s 60 million people – about the size of France or Britain. I think that I can live with that."
It is not likely. It may or may not happen. You are being overly dramatic.
"As to the other European Americans who choose not associate with us, what about them? They can do what they want. However, as they look at our neighborhoods, our schools, our baseball leagues, our business clubs, our community centers, etc, and compare those to the run-down, dangerous public counter-parts filled with people who neither look like them nor act like them, I suspect that they will quickly change their tune. If not, good for them. Enjoy the multi-culti world. It’s just not my world."
Those neighborhoods, schools, baseball leagues, business clubs, ec. are ALL of ours, i.e. the citizens of America.
"God didn’t create the United States. God didn’t create the current system in this country."
But God commanded that his followers adhere to his creation. Are you an adherent to Christ?
"But the one thing that I know is that the vast – yes, the vast – majority of whites, even a large portion of Goodwhites, don’t want to be around blacks and Hispanics. They just don’t. It’s why they’re punished so hard. If they ever get the chance to separate from you, they’ll rejoice and move in droves."
No, a minority of whites feel that way. If that be the case, the Civil Rights Movement would have never occurred, with professional sports and the corporate world today reflecting your distorted worldview.
"You know that’s the truth, and all of your attempts at being clever, will never change that fact."
It's YOUR truth, not the actual truth.

Yes it is, at least if you are talking about the Roosevelts and the other old Dutch families of New York and New Jersey. “Anglo-Saxon” is the least accurate part of “WASP”. White is obvious, and Protestant is too. But “Anglo-Saxon” was just an essential way of coming up with a clever acronym – I am sure that E Digby Baltzell would have laughed at the idea that he had meant the term to exclude the Roosevelts, or the Zantzingers, or even the Madeiras, a long converted once Jewish family of the Philadelphia Main Line

Agreed. I think the Delanos were originally Huguenot anyway.

Not to mention that the Angles and the Saxons were originally Germanic (as were the Dutch). Anglo Saxon says too little and too much. I suppose it is meant to exclude the Scots-Irish mountain folk, who are white and Protestant but not WASP but on the other hand the Welsh and Scotch qualify as WASP without having any Saxon blood. Maybe WASP, like race itself, is a “social construct” – you know a WASP when you see him (by his whale pants). Or perhaps Baltzell’s alternative name , the “Protestant Establishment” should give you a clue – there are plenty of people who are white AND Anglo AND Protestant but still not WASP. But PE doesn’t have the same ring.

Actually, if you have followed this blog with anything but an ethno-centric obsession, you would know that the only reason why Sailer has a #antigentilism hashtag is because Sabrina Rubin Erdeley is obviously Jewish and when she wrote her article about “Jackie” she also very obviously slurred UVA, and moreover described the putatively predominant blue eyed blond flavor of the campus. In similar ways he quoted a poem “University” by “Karl Shapiro” which also showed a distinct animus towards UVA, and couched it in terms of hostility to blacks, Jews, and Deliverance-level incest, and he has also observed other Jewish creative people demonstrating not only a weird hostility to non-Jews (e.g., the guy who made “Mad Men”) but also an equally weird sense of persecution among Jewish Americans (Peter Beinart’s tweet quoted elsewhere).
Is there something — here? — WRT to Jews having this odd obsession with non-Jews? “Anti-gentilism” may not be the best choice of words but it’s the only thing we have at the moment.
So #antigentilism
along with #HavenMonahan are default hashtags having to do with #UVA, which is why they were listed in the article.
Now, in terms of the petition itself, I believe it was drafted by an AA woman on the Psychology Department staff, and I don’t think she’s Jewish. Another member of that department, named Dodd (not very Jewish sounding to me) is the husband of “Lawrie” and while the first name is odd (short for “Lawrence”? Like her parents wanted a son? Life she was named after some radical Jewish something? Like who?) and Balfour isn’t Jewish, no matter what declarations one might make. (I think she’s kind of cute, but then, I’m old.)

Harvard is something like 20+% Asian. UVA is around 13%, so, yes, it has fewer Asians (and more whites). But that pales – pardon the pun – in comparison to something like the University of Iowa, which is only 4% Asian, lower than even the national percentage of Asians.
Also – and this was more to my original point – East Coast “whites” tend to be much more “ethnic” and darker, and not nearly as “blond and tan.” Universities such as Iowa and KU have whites who are very Germanic in ancestry.
I think the leftist attacks on UVA as being too “blond and tan” has more to do with its status as a relatively conservative elite school more than it being too pale. The likes of Erdely are not going after Iowa and KU after all, probably because her types see the latter as hick schools that pose no (intellectual) threats to her people.

Excellent article. I never heard of this John R. Schindler guy before, but he’s very very good.
Interesting comment, but I disagree, mostly. Leftists seem to me to live in constant expectation of an eventual utopia, made possible by revolution. This anticipated reclaiming of an Edenic paradise is a cornerstone of Marxism, both the original and now the cultural versions, and it’s a heresy that is parasitic on Christian eschatology.
The problem is, in the Christian narrative God makes covenants with real people, i.e. first the Jews, and then the Church, who work out His will in gratitude and obedience to Him. In the Leftist heresy, there’s no God, so there’s no covenant; instead, it’s blind historical forces — e.g. Obama’s grotesquely vapid ‘the arc of history’ — that somehow will ‘bend’ toward the inevitable utopia (you can hear echos of Darwin’s theory and its tacit teleology here as well).
So when an impersonal but irresistible force is driving history, there’s not much need for individuals to worry about their ancestors or their progeny. That’s for the Neanderthals who still believe in the covenant.

Good analysis.
One of the other ironies of the term ‘WASP’ is that the WASPiest WASPs of all should be upper class Brits — who, even to this day, can still often be linked to their Norman forebears, who weren’t even precisely Anglo-Saxon themselves . . . .
German culture in America was crushed during WWI. Swedes, Greeks, Poles, etc, were never numerous enough to pose a threat to Anglo hegemony. Rather more than that. The pre-60's WASP elite worked quite hard to make sure that immigrants absorbed Anglo norms and beliefs.Replies: @Anon, @Anon, @Ivy
Yet the Philly establishment Quakers and Episcopalians, and their analogs in Chicago, saw a threat in the Polish and other Catholic enclaves. Those represented voting blocs and cultural differences that could destabilize the existing order. See The Slaughter of Cities by E. Michael Jones and related works by Michael Novak. The melting pot sometimes boiled over.
The sides really don’t line up with modern right and left when you go that far back. Jefferson was for rural and southern interests and decentralization but also was very suspicious of organized religion. Hamilton was for a central bank and a strong federal government. They actually kind of line up with our present developing globalist-populist axis, but that’s a new development.
You get all kinds of weird alliances when you go back far enough–William Jennings Bryan was a Christian socialist, New York City was a hotbed of pro-Confederate sentiment in the Civil War… coalitions form and reform. Heck, back in the early 60s the white working class, the very people who elected Trump, were Democrats.

Also - and this was more to my original point - East Coast "whites" tend to be much more "ethnic" and darker, and not nearly as "blond and tan." Universities such as Iowa and KU have whites who are very Germanic in ancestry.
I think the leftist attacks on UVA as being too "blond and tan" has more to do with its status as a relatively conservative elite school more than it being too pale. The likes of Erdely are not going after Iowa and KU after all, probably because her types see the latter as hick schools that pose no (intellectual) threats to her people.Replies: @Lurker

It is a great choice. Preibus is a man of integrity/principle.
He is the only one that stood between the RNC/GOPe doing to Trump what the DNC did to Sanders.
And tactically, Preibus, Wisconsin R, in tight with Ryan, back channel there to hard right which Trump is not willing to embrace too tightly.
There is some good evidence, based on twin studies, that political opinion is heritable. Considering the stark differences in birth rates between the left and the right inevitably liberals will become a minority among whites.

They used to. And why do you think that some don't any more? Did they "evolve" as your types like to say? No. They've been punished for showing any racial solidarity.
The minute that whites realize that they can show pride in being European and have some back-up, a great number will do so. Many won't. So what. That's their choice. However, if you think that in a world where European Americans are free to choose between joining their fellow whites or being shunned by them and thus being forced to spend their time with the Coalition of the Fringes that a very large majority of European Americans won't choose their own, you're crazy.
For decades, liberal whites have been able to have their cake and eat it too. They can trash on their fellow Badwhites while still getting to work with them instead of blacks and browns, send their kids to school with Badwhite kids instead of blacks and browns, etc. End that deal, and you'll see many Goodwhite children choose our side.
The vast majority of whites don't want to be excluded from other whites.
"Feel free to exercise your liberty to carve out that niche for you and your like-minded friends."

If even a third of European Americans over the course of the next couple of generations (this is a very long process) choose this path - and it likely will be more - that's 60 million people - about the size of France or Britain. I think that I can live with that.
As to the other European Americans who choose not associate with us, what about them? They can do what they want. However, as they look at our neighborhoods, our schools, our baseball leagues, our business clubs, our community centers, etc, and compare those to the run-down, dangerous public counter-parts filled with people who neither look like them nor act like them, I suspect that they will quickly change their tune. If not, good for them. Enjoy the multi-culti world. It's just not my world.
God didn't create the United States. God didn't create the current system in this country. Like everything else in history, this too shall pass.

But the one thing that I know is that the vast - yes, the vast - majority of whites, even a large portion of Goodwhites, don't want to be around blacks and Hispanics. They just don't.

“They used to. And why do you think that some don’t any more? Did they “evolve” as your types like to say? No. They’ve been punished for showing any racial solidarity.”
No, whites historically thought of themselves as being part of a European ethnic group. The Age of Imperialism (late 1800’s) put into play this white vs. non-white meme.
“The minute that whites realize that they can show pride in being European and have some back-up, a great number will do so. Many won’t. So what.”
Whites in America are mutts. They refer to themselves as Americans, not white Europeans. They are still mindful, however, of their heritage.
“That’s their choice. However, if you think that in a world where European Americans are free to choose between joining their fellow whites or being shunned by them and thus being forced to spend their time with the Coalition of the Fringes that a very large majority of European Americans won’t choose their own, you’re crazy.”
You are assuming that whites will inevitably shun their fellow whites for not joining up with them against nonwhites.
“For decades, liberal whites have been able to have their cake and eat it too. They can trash on their fellow Badwhites while still getting to work with them instead of blacks and browns, send their kids to school with Badwhite kids instead of blacks and browns, etc. End that deal, and you’ll see many Goodwhite children choose our side.”
How do you even define “badwhites and goodwhites”? Are you not saying that race is a social construct when insisting these groups exist?
“The vast majority of whites don’t want to be excluded from other whites.”
Prove it. Give me hard core evidence of this phenomenon or retract.
“That’s the idea. Granted, at the moment, it’s just that, an idea. But it has a chance, and that possibility is terrifying to people like you because you know what life without pliable whites would like like. Liberia anyone.”
Again, you assume that whites are going to be in lockstep with your idea. It hasn’t been that way. Look at slavery. Badwhites overtook Goodwhites on this issue.
“Jews have lasted for thousands of years by rejecting your reality. The Amish also are doing quite well.”
Exceptions to the rule. Unique circumstances.
“God know blacks and Hispanics can’t stop us if we decide to close ranks.”
God promotes good will among all men. Race is not one’s uniform in His eyes. Don’t you know that?
“You guys are just props in the Goodwhite-Badwhite civil war. Don’t you know that?”
There is no civil war between whites. It is conjured up by the Alt Right.
“If even a third of European Americans over the course of the next couple of generations (this is a very long process) choose this path – and it likely will be more – that’s 60 million people – about the size of France or Britain. I think that I can live with that.”
It is not likely. It may or may not happen. You are being overly dramatic.
“As to the other European Americans who choose not associate with us, what about them? They can do what they want. However, as they look at our neighborhoods, our schools, our baseball leagues, our business clubs, our community centers, etc, and compare those to the run-down, dangerous public counter-parts filled with people who neither look like them nor act like them, I suspect that they will quickly change their tune. If not, good for them. Enjoy the multi-culti world. It’s just not my world.”
Those neighborhoods, schools, baseball leagues, business clubs, ec. are ALL of ours, i.e. the citizens of America.
“God didn’t create the United States. God didn’t create the current system in this country.”
But God commanded that his followers adhere to his creation. Are you an adherent to Christ?
“But the one thing that I know is that the vast – yes, the vast – majority of whites, even a large portion of Goodwhites, don’t want to be around blacks and Hispanics. They just don’t. It’s why they’re punished so hard. If they ever get the chance to separate from you, they’ll rejoice and move in droves.”
No, a minority of whites feel that way. If that be the case, the Civil Rights Movement would have never occurred, with professional sports and the corporate world today reflecting your distorted worldview.
“You know that’s the truth, and all of your attempts at being clever, will never change that fact.”
It’s YOUR truth, not the actual truth.
"I’m not talking about some civil war fantasy. I simply mean European Americans doing what Jews (and Mormons) have always done. Set up European American business groups, charities, schools/cultural centers, lobbies, think tanks, etc. Look out for your own. Promote your people’s interests."
White Americans in general do not think nor act along these lines, nor should they be demanded by Alt-Right elites or anti-cuck talking heads that they must behave in a prescribed manner.
Feel free to exercise your liberty to carve out that niche for you and your like-minded friends.
"When a politician, member of the media, academic or business person from another race/ethnicity/religion says something disparaging against European Americans, you fight back and you fight back hard.

You are well within your freedom to disassociate yourself from reality.
"A peaceful European nation within a multi-racial, multi-ethnic, multi-religious country. How that country-in-name-only goes won’t be that important. We’ll have our nation that insulates us."

Now, in terms of the petition itself, I believe it was drafted by an AA woman on the Psychology Department staff, and I don't think she's Jewish. Another member of that department, named Dodd (not very Jewish sounding to me) is the husband of "Lawrie" and while the first name is odd (short for "Lawrence"? Like her parents wanted a son? Life she was named after some radical Jewish something? Like who?) and Balfour isn't Jewish, no matter what declarations one might make. (I think she's kind of cute, but then, I'm old.)

Steve has actually written about this more than once.
However, that shoe was formerly on the other foot, and there was a time when Jews foolishly endorsed censoring free speech on campuses, the most recent incident I have in mind concerns a rescinded invitation to allow the late anti-Zionist Tony Judt to speak at NYU some ten years ago.
My personal preference is that colleges and universities should allow all manner of speech, albeit with a volume control. If we can agree on that much, then we are in agreement about the fact that pro-Zionism is no longer "tolerated" speech on campuses.
The part about your post I did not like was your insinuation that Steve was only using the referenced hashtags to get money from anti-Semites. I don't think that applies in this case, and I consider that kind of accusation mean spirited and deliberately provocative. Best Regards.
