“Preach equality, practice hierarchy.” That’s the hidden core commandment of leftism. It’s mendacious and malevolent, but so what? Like a clown offering to shake with one hand while concealing a cream-pie behind his back in the other, the left have defeated the right with it again and again, decade after decade. “We believe in equality!” […]

Few people know the answer and that’s just the way leftists like it, because the answer derails one of their central projects. And the answer is this: The word “slave” is derived from the word “Slav,” because the pagans […]
Nazis believed in “Strength through Joy.” Jews believe in “Strength through Oy-Veh!” They deceive and manipulate White gentiles by complaining and pretending to be victims (“oy veh!” is a traditional Jewish cry of dismay or lament).
