Patrick J. Deneen: intolerância: consequência lógica do liberalismo

September 6, 2025/1 Comment/in Translations: Portuguese/by Chauke Stephan Filho.

Patrick J. Deneen, professor de Ciência Política na Universidade de Notre Dame e autor do influente livro Why liberalism failed [Por que o liberalismo falhou], impôs-se como uma das vozes mais críticas contra o paradigma político estabelecido depois da Segunda Guerra Mundial. Sua tese central é que o liberalismo, longe de garantir uma verdadeira diversidade, forçou a aceitação de molde ideológico destinado a subordinar as identidades e as tradições ao consumo e à eficácia econômica.

Nesta altura em que o mundo passa por completa reconfiguração, marcada pelo empoderecimento de novas nações, por tensões culturais internas e por crescente ceticismo quanto ao modelo mundialista, Deneen defende as lealdades locais, as raízes religiosas e as tradições nacionais como essenciais à saúde política das nações. Ele considera que a chamada “intolerância liberal” não consiste numa anomalia, mas sim numa consequência lógica de um sistema que, se não domestica as convicções profundas, recorre à coerção direta contra elas.

Sua leitura da política americana e europeia rompe com as categorias clássicas de esquerda e direita. Segundo ele, o novo plano de clivagem política aparta uma elite transnacional ― educada, cosmopolita e corporativista ― de uma classe trabalhadora que, paradoxalmente, deveio a principal força conservadora. A entrevista, realizada quando foi da MCC Feszt, resume suas ideias sobre a mudança de paradigma, os limites da tolerância progressista e o conceito de bem comum nas sociedades fragmentadas.

Nosso colega Javier Villamor entrevistou-o para The European Conservative. A tradução [do inglês para o francês] é nossa [da Breizh-info].

O paradigma direita-esquerda mudou?

Patrick J. Deneen: sim, fundamentalmente. Depois da Segunda Guerra Mundial, a esquerda defendia a classe trabalhadora, inspirada nas tradições socialistas e mesmo marxistas, enquanto a direita representava as elites financeiras. Atualmente, ocorre o inverso: o Partido Democrata americano é o partido das grandes empresas, da gente de alta renda e daqueles com escolaridade superior; seus principais doadores são as universidades, as corporações transnacionais e as grandes instituições. O Partido Republicano tornou-se o partido da classe trabalhadora. Isso desmantela a ideia de que os trabalhadores sejam sempre favoráveis às soluções de esquerda. O próprio Marx acreditava que a classe trabalhadora, sendo mais conservadora do que a elite, valorava a estabilidade, a ordem e as tradições.

Há um pensamento mundial monolítico que nos confronta em nome da diversidade?

Patrick J. Deneen: a diversidade foi sempre um desafio; não se trata de invenção moderna. O liberalismo contemporâneo sugere que não busquemos o bem comum, mas antes aquilo que nos der na veneta, observado um pacto de não agressão. Porém, isso pressupõe que todos sejamos sobretudo liberais; depois, se quisermos, poderemos escolher ser católicos ou judeus ou muçulmanos ou … Destarte, a diversidade pressuposta acaba por se dissolver numa homogeneidade formada de consumidores materialistas. A escolha forçada empobrece a vida humana, privando-nos de elementos essenciais, como a amizade, a família, a busca da verdade, sem o que nos perdemos num vazio de sentido.

Como o liberalismo reage àqueles que resistem à imposição de seu projeto?

Patrick J. Deneen: a princípio, por meios indiretos, econômicos, principalmente: para não ser marginalizado, é preciso deixar de lado as próprias crenças ou valores tradicionais, em nome da eficácia. Entretanto, quando a resistência passa a envolver aspectos fundamentais ― como a visão do homem e da mulher, o casamento ou Deus ― o liberalismo lança mão de meios diretos. Daí emerge o que eu chamo de “intolerância liberal” ou “liberalismo iliberal”. Não se trata de um desvio, mas sim da consequência lógica do próprio desenvolvimento liberal.

A avançada liberal tem limites?

Patrick J. Deneen: sim, a negação da realidade biológica chegou a um ponto de ruptura. Pretender que os homens e as mulheres não existam ou chamar as mulheres de “pessoas dotadas de útero” desencadeou uma reação popular. Todos aqueles que apoiaram Trump não o fizeram por afinidade pessoal, antes buscaram responder ao radicalismo progressista.

O liberalismo está, inevitavelmente, destinado a chegar ainda mais longe?

Patrick J. Deneen: seu movimento explica-se por sua lógica ínsita. O liberalismo busca subverter novas realidades, sempre no intento de plenificar a liberdade individual, razão pela qual ele toma o fato de alguém ser homem ou mulher, pai ou criança, como algo arbitrário, uma simples convenção social que se pode e deve mudar, conforme a livre vontade de cada pessoa. A realidade não se deixa substituir pelo desejo, mas a dinâmica revolucionária não arrefece. Nós estamos sofrendo as consequências terminais da lógica liberal, sendo o mesmo dizer que estamos submetidos à opressão liberal.

A verdade tem proteção?

Patrick J. Deneen: a realidade tende a se manifestar, porque ela faz parte da nossa natureza humana. Isso inclui o reconhecimento dos papéis distintos do homem e da mulher, mas também o fato de fazermos parte da natureza. Nessa questão, a direita retoma suas posições: não se trata só de alarmismo climático, mas de saber como viver sem transgredir os limites do planeta. Há uma tensão entre o otimismo tecnológico, que busca ultrapassar esses mesmos limites, chegando até Marte, e um conservadorismo mais terra-a-terra, valorador da agricultura, da comunidade local e da moderação no consumo.

Como a sua pessoa definiria o bem comum?

Patrick J. Deneen: a palavra “Comum”, em inglês, significa, simultaneamente, “Compartido” e “Ordinário”. Uma maneira de perceber o bem comum consiste em observar como se comportam as pessoas medianas, o homem da rua. Essa gente ascende ou declina? JD Vance, o atual vice-presidente dos Estados Unidos, tem origem nesse meio social e sabe o quanto dói vê-lo devastado por políticas socioeconômicas desacertadas. Uma sociedade bem-ordenada deve permitir às crianças das famílias comuns que disponham de oportunidades reais, mesmo sem as regalias da elite.

With Instant MSM Support, NYAG Letitia James Moves To Bankrupt Us Personally

September 6, 2025/1 Comment/in General/by Peter Brimelow

As usual, the MSM (liberal and conservative) ignores the lawfare against VDARE and the Brimelows.

With Instant MSM Support, NYAG Letitia James Moves To Bankrupt Us Personally

(Where is the “Conservative” Media?)

Despite all the huffing and puffing, there’s essentially nothing new in the lying Complaint filed by New York State Attorney General Letitia James against the VDARE Foundation Wednesday September 3.

(Except that James has decided—unusually but with characteristic viciousness—to proceed also against Lydia and myself personally. Anyone who knows the hell that is the American legal system knows this means that, even if we prevail, our family will quite probably be bankrupted).

As there’s really nothing new in Letitia James’ complaint, I’m just going to link here to my May 22 2023 definitive refutation of her lies.

The point here: James could have filed her Complaint against us at least three years ago.

But then she would have not have been able to inflict upon the VDARE Foundation the seven-figure “investigation” costs that drove us to suspend the VDARE.com website last year.

Still, I can’t resist noting one new ludicrous twist: James now claims that we spent “thousands of dollars” on [unspecified] “club memberships.”

BUT, DESPITE THE CRUDE INSINUATION, THESE “CLUB MEMBERSHIPS” WERE NOT MAR-A-LAGO or whatever that golf club is that Trump has up in New Jersey.

The only “clubs” I belonged to in this period were Paul Gottfried’s H.L. Mencken Club, now sadly defunct, and the impeccably Con. Inc Philadelphia Society. (I’ll be at its McLean, VA conference September 19-20!)

Their dues together probably don’t exceed $500.

Why doesn’t Letitia James’ Complaint lay that out?

Needless to say, the Complaint nowhere acknowledges that we were forced to buy the Castle to have a conference venue, after more than a dozen hotels had cancelled our conference bookings and it became clear that none would stand up to communist pressure.

Nor of course does the Complaint acknowledge that I was running a website that posted every day, multiple times a day, and that Lydia was now also locked into a constant battle to stop the Castle from falling down

Instead, it insinuates we were just sitting around drinking tea.

But perhaps more interesting to everyone other than us: the blatant Main Stream Media collusion between the New York State Attorney General’s Office.

For example, our lawyer received notification of Letitia James’ Complaint at 12:33 p.m. on Wednesday, September 3. We got New York Times’ writer David Farentholdt’s detailed demands for a response at 12:40 p.m. Had he already read the 55-page document?

Incredibly, Grok thinks Farenthold’s article was actually published at 12:35 p.m.

It has become standard for Regime Media propagandists to put in pro forma requests for comment when their story is already written. But this is the first time I’ve seen a request after the story is published.

Quite obviously, the entire Leftosphere was alerted by the NYAG. Within the hour, we received many such queries:

Amazing how they all say the same thing simultaneously—and so fast!

But we were just out, dammit. We have children and stuff to do.

Note, however, that there was absolutely no non-Leftist coverage of the NYAG’s attack on us.

Indeed, since that first frenzied hour, our media queries have completely ceased.

In other words, we have received absolutely no queries from “conservative” media—not from the Wall Street Journal, New York Post, Fox, Breitbart, Daily Caller, National Review (ha!), let alone the entire e-universe of Dissident Right Influencers.

Nor, of course, any invitations to defend ourselves.

This is particularly strange given Letitia James’ utter discrediting by the Trump fraud fiasco and her 40-year mortgage malfeasance.

Is it something I did?

Mondoweiss: The new Israeli map proposing to annex 80% of the West Bank, explained

September 5, 2025/9 Comments/in General/by Kevin MacDonald

The new Israeli map proposing to annex 80% of the West Bank, explained

Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich released a map proposing to annex over 80% of the West Bank. He’s not far off from the rest of the Israeli political establishment — even the “pragmatic” opposition.

More than 80 percent of the occupied West Bank would become part of Israel, according to a new annexation proposal drafted by Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich on Monday.

The hardline Minister presented a map showing all of the West Bank as a part of Israel, including Bethlehem, the Jordan Valley, and the entire Palestinian countryside, while only six Palestinian cities — Jenin, Tulkarem, Nablus, Jericho, Ramallah, and Hebron — were marked as isolated ghettoes. Smotrich said that if the Palestinian Authority (PA) opposes his plan, Israel would “uproot it like it did with Hamas.” Smotrich also called on Netanyahu to implement his proposal if he wished to “enter history as a great leader.”

On the same day as Smotrich’s presentation, Israeli forces arrested the mayor of Hebron, Tayseer Abu Sneineh. Hebron is the largest Palestinian city in the West Bank and is home to 800,000 Palestinians. Some 500 messianic Israeli settlers have been imposing their presence in the city’s old town since the 1980s, and Abu Sneineh is known for his role in a Fatah cell that planned and carried out the shooting of six Israeli and Jewish settlers in the city’s old town in 1980, locally known as the “Dabuya Operation.” After his initial arrest, Abu Sneineh was later released in a prisoner swap in 1983 alongside other members of the cell.

Abu Sneineh’s arrest came days after Israeli media outlets reported that Israel’s Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, was considering the establishment of a tribal “emirate” in Hebron, separate from the Palestinian Authority, which first surfaced in the pages of the Wall Street Journal last July.

Local Palestinian media speculated as to whether Abu Sneineh’s arrest was possibly a prelude to removing potential sources of local opposition to annexation, especially given Abu Sneineh’s background and his status as a consequential local nationalist figure in Hebron.

These events, in addition to a number of other developments in the lead-up to the Smotrich proposal, have catapulted the issue of Israel’s potential annexation of the West Bank to the top of the Israeli government’s agenda, and have left millions of Palestinians in the West Bank unsure of their future.

The background

The Israeli cabinet met last Sunday for the second time in two weeks to discuss options for the annexation of parts of the West Bank. It was followed by a meeting between Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar and U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio last week, in which Saar informed Rubio of Israel’s intention to “impose Israeli sovereignty” on the Palestinian territory, according to the Israeli news site, Walla.

Meanwhile, Israel has been engaging in a show of force against the PA by launching several raids on major West Bank cities that make up Area A under the Oslo Accords, which comprise about 18% of the West Bank and are supposed to be under PA jurisdiction. The Israeli army launched the largest military raid in years on Ramallah last week, occupying the city center of the PA’s de facto capital with hundreds of troops accompanied by Israeli media crews for over three hours. The very next day, the Israeli army launched a similar raid in Nablus, the second most important PA center of power.

Although Israel claims that its latest moves to annex the West Bank are a response to the announcement by several European states that they intend to recognize Palestine as a state, Israel’s annexation of the West Bank has been years in the making.

In 2019, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pledged during his election campaign to annex the Jordan Valley. The first Trump administration allegedly stopped Israel twice, in January and June of 2020, from formally announcing annexation.

However, the same Trump administration announced its “Deal of the Century” plan in 2020, which included the annexation of most of the West Bank, including all of the Jordan Valley. Trump also recognized Israel’s sovereignty over illegal settlements in the West Bank, the occupied Syrian Golan heights, and over all of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. Palestinians overwhelmingly rejected it.

Israel’s current plan of annexation is based on Smotrich’s 2015 “decisive plan,” which aims to prevent the establishment of a Palestinian state and expel Palestinians through encouraging so-called “voluntary migration.” Smotrich also said that Palestinians in the West Bank would either submit to Israeli sovreignty, leave the country, or “be dealt with” by Israeli forces. After October 7, Smotrich said that the annexation of the West Bank should be Israel’s response to the Hamas attack. He later said that Israel’s expulsion of half of Gaza’s population would “set a precedent” to do the same in the West Bank.

Attacking the PA

Over the past two years, Smotrich has been leading a campaign of financial strangulation against the PA, pirating Palestinian customs money that Israel collects on the PA’s behalf as per the Oslo Accords. Smotrich has also periodically threatened to ban Israeli banks from dealing with Palestinian banks, and in the meantime has compelled Israeli banks to limit the amount of cash that Palestinian banks can transfer to Israeli banks.

Both of the above measured have forced the PA into an ongoing financial crisis, unable to pay public functionaries, medics, teachers, and security staff their full monthly salaries for months on end. And if Smotrich goes through with actually banning all financial dealings between Israeli and Palestinian banks, it would spell total financial collapse in the West Bank, threatening the PA’s very existence.

Weakening the PA to this level is meant to obviate its need for Palestinians and to pave the way for annexation. And Smotrich is just the face of this recent push to isolate and besiege the PA — he is one of many Israeli ministers key to the continuity of Netanyahu’s government, including Itamar Ben-Gvir, Amichai Elyahu, and Orit Strock, all of whom represent the religious right and control the majority in the Israeli Knesset.

The Knesset has also been laying the legal grounds for the West Bank’s annexation for years. In 2018, the Knesset passed the Israeli Nation State Law, which states that the only right to self-determination between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean sea belongs to the Jewish people. In July of last year, the Knesset passed a bill rejecting the establishment of a Palestinian state anywhere between the river and the sea, and a year later — last July — the Knesset passed a bill enabling the annexation of the West Bank.

The U.S. role

The prelude to the official annexation of the Palestinian territory isn’t limited to Israeli measures, but also includes what are so far symbolic U.S. moves underwriting Israel’s intentions. As European states, including France, the UK, and Belgium, announce plans to recognize a Palestinian state during the UN General Assembly later this month, the U.S., for its part, revoked visas for Palestinian officials, including the Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas, set to attend the General Assembly. The move was followed by Washington’s decision to stop issuing visas to any Palestinian passport holders.

In essence, this means that the U.S. is implicitly supporting Israel’s plans to erase the possibility of a Palestinian state and extending Israel’s control over all Palestinian territories.

Although Smotrich’s most recent plan has been described as “maximalist,” the general orientation of Israeli lawmakers, even the “pragmatic” opposition represented by Yair Lapid and Benny Gantz, does not oppose annexation in any meaningful sense. The main differences that do exist between Israelis is not over annexation per se, but over its extent.

The less “maximalist” Israeli lawmakers either call for the annexation of all Israeli settlements, the annexation of Area C (which makes up over 60% of the West Bank), or the annexation of the Jordan Valley. But all those versions would deprive Palestinians of any meaningful geographic continuity, control over natural resources and borders, or prospects for future population growth. In essence, the entire Israeli political class is deadset on making a Palestinian state an impossibility. This is the range of political currents the U.S. is picking between to support.

Ultimately, the U.S. will be the one to decide whether official annexation as a whole will move forward. Axios quoted two unnamed U.S. officials that it was “unlikely” Trump would support such a move. But even if Washington halts the de jure annexation of the West Bank, it will most likely offer an “alternative” that would solidify de facto annexation.

The Repulsive Racism of Reality: Exploring the Ideological Acrobatics of Jewish Anti-Fascism

September 5, 2025/5 Comments/in British Politics, Featured Articles/by Tobias Langdon

David Renton is a Jew. And a lawyer. And a veteran anti-fascist. Obviously, then, he’s far too intelligent, dialectically adept and syllogistically skilled to pwn himself in the crass fashion of the fat food-filcher Billy Bunter, one of the greatest comic characters in English literature:

[A]t that moment Nugent opened the cupboard to lift out the cake. There was no cake to be lifted out. Nugent stared at the spot where a cake had been, and where now only a sea of crumbs met the view. …

“Bunter, you podgy pirate!” exclaimed Harry Wharton. … “Where’s that cake?”

“How should I know? I never even looked into the cupboard, and I never saw any cake when I looked in, either—”

“Scrag him!”

“Boot him!”

“I-I-I say, you fellows, it wasn’t me,” yelled Bunter. “I-I expect you put it somewhere else. It wasn’t there when I ate it — I mean, when I didn’t eat it — If you think I scoffed that cake, I can jolly well say — whoooop! Whoooop! Yarooooh!” (Bunter Comes for Christmas, 1959)

“Sneers of cold command”: the Jewish anti-fascists David Renton (left) and Daniel Trilling

“It wasn’t there when I ate it” — the veteran anti-fascist David Renton would never say anything as consummately stupid and crassly self-convicting as that. But he came pretty close in a recent article he wrote about defending vulnerable non-White men from the “racist notions” of local White women in southern England:

At the start of August, I was one of the organisers of the demo outside the Thistle Barbican hotel [in London]. That protest was called by a meeting of 50 people representing around 20 anti-racist groups. We were a counter-protest to an event calling for the hotel to be closed on racist grounds. […] No far-right organisation was backing the anti-hotel protests. The motivation on their side appeared to be a hostility towards single men, which was based on racist notions about the sexuality of foreigners. The key organisers of the campaign were all women, and they had a local base. After the demo was over, activists would still face the problem of having to isolate them. All this would take time, the best the demo could achieve would be a breathing space before the real work began. (“Working with Stand up to Racism — the good, the bad, the deeply annoying,” David Renton’s personal blog, 21st August 2025)

When Billy Bunter said the cake wasn’t there when he ate it, he was convicting himself out of his own mouth. David Renton is doing the same when he admits that the “key organizers” of the “anti-hotel protests” are all local women. That is, they are women with direct experience of the behavior of young non-White men like those in the hotel. Or they have female relatives and friends whose stories they trust. But Renton has to pretend that the motivation of these women is not direct experience but “hostility towards single men, which was based on racist notions about the sexuality of foreigners.”

Censor reality, smear realists

What happened to those two core principles of the left, “Believe Women” and “Trust Women’s Lived Experience”? Well, they had to give way to two even more core principles of the left: “Reality Is Racist” and “Preach Equality, Practise Hierarchy.” When reality contradicts ideology, leftists have a simple solution: censor reality and smear realists as “racist.” Accordingly, while leftists like Renton claim to be deeply concerned about protecting women from male violence, they happily abandon White women and girls seeking protection against non-White men who are higher in the leftist hierarchy of racial privilege. Indeed, leftists go further: as rape-gang redoubts like Rotherham have proved, they will actively assist racially privileged non-White men to commit sex-crimes against racially unprivileged White women and girls.

“Hear and obey, goyim!” Jewish judge David Bean overturns a pro-White injunction (video from Vox Populi)

That is what David Renton and his fellow anti-fascists are trying to do in their “counter demonstration” against local women with “lived experience” of the behavior of the so-called asylum-seekers. The local women and girls are White, the imported men are non-White. Therefore, in leftist eyes, the non-White men should be free to prey as they please on the White women and girls. That’s why a panel of leftist judges acted for the Labour government and overturned an injunction won by a local council in Essex against a hotel housing asylum-seekers, one of whom has now been found guilty of sexual assaults against “two teenagers and a woman.” The injunction said that the hotel had to stop housing asylum-seekers, which would obviously help protect local White women. But leftists don’t want to protect White women: they want to maintain the predatory privilege of non-White men. Accordingly, the Labour government appealed against the injunction and leftist judges duly overturned it, arguing that the rights of foreign non-White men trumped all concerns of local residents. The senior judge who intoned the anti-White ruling was a Jew called David Bean, who “was educated at St Paul’s School, an all-boys private school in Barnes, London.”

Importing sex-criminals

The Jewish lawyer David Renton was educated at an even more exclusive private school called Eton, also the alma mater of the part-Jewish prime ministers Boris Johnson and David Cameron. Renton claims to have “loathed” Eton, which is why he became a revolutionary socialist and joined the Socialist Workers Party (SWP), a Trotskyist sect led by the charismatic Israeli Jew Tony Cliff (aka Yigael Gluckstein). But in fact Renton fully absorbed one aspect of Eton’s elitism. Like his supposed political opponents Johnson and Cameron, he believes that ordinary Whites should have no say over immigration and over who enters their neighborhoods. Johnson and Cameron both promised to drastically reduce immigration; Johnson and Cameron both proceeded to massively increase it.

More vibrant migrants = more sexual violence

Strangely enough, as more and more non-White men have enriched the British Isles, we’ve seen more and more rapes and other sex-crimes. We’ve also seen more and more White women join the “far right” and campaign against non-White migration. Could it be that these women are basing their opposition to non-White migration on their “lived experience” of sexual assault and harassment by non-White men? Not according to David Renton. Here’s part of a mansplaining article he wrote for the Guardian:

When we deal with the far right now, we are facing a movement that is pushing forward a group of female leaders — that feels different from five years ago, let alone 50 years since. In Islington, one of the speeches came from a woman described as running a local nursery (it was read out on her behalf). The contemporary far right is focused on pushing a single narrative about refugees, all based on the same logic — that the people in the hotel are single men, are foreigners, and on both scores are likely to be sexual predators.

This argument wins supporters, and it shields them from accusations that they are extremists. The only way to confront this is to meet it head on, by rejecting any idea that foreign men — or Muslims — are more prone to sexual offences than their British counterparts. The logic of the argument is racist — it relies on the assumption that just because they are migrants, or asylum seekers, or not white (and with no other supportive evidence), they must be more prone to sexual violence than the men who already live here.

And the simplest, one-line refutation of it is to look at the men who were arrested for offences in the various race riots that followed events at Southport last year. Of those men, a staggering 40% have been reported to the police for domestic violence. There is, in other words, probably no single group of people — not in Britain or anywhere else — who are more prone to violence against women than the people now standing outside the hotels denouncing refugees. (“Lessons from an asylum hotel counter-protest: calling our opponents ‘fascist’ doesn’t work,” The Guardian, 29th August 2025)

According to the non-local Jewish man David Renton, local White women in places enriched by “asylum seekers” are not acting on lived experience but on racist “assumptions” about non-White men. But he goes further: he is implicitly arguing that the lived experience of the White women must be that they are in more danger from the White men accompanying them on their protests. In other words, David Renton and his fellow anti-fascists know the women’s lived experience better than the women themselves do. That’s why Renton demands that we “[reject] any idea that foreign men — or Muslims — are more prone to sexual offences than their British counterparts.”

We’ve got to reject that notion because it’s based on repulsive racism against “foreign men” and “Muslims.” That’s according to David Renton in the staunchly anti-racist Guardian. Here’s something else from the staunchly anti-racist Guardian:

Poll ranks India the world’s most dangerous country for women

A survey of global experts puts Afghanistan and Syria in second and third place, with the US the only western nation in the top 10

India is the world’s most dangerous country for women due to the high risk of sexual violence and being forced into slave labour, according to a poll of global experts. Afghanistan and Syria ranked second and third in a Thomson Reuters Foundation survey of 548 experts on women’s issues, followed by Somalia and Saudi Arabia.

The only western nation in the top 10 was the US, which ranked joint third when respondents were asked where women were most at risk of sexual violence, harassment and being coerced into sex. The poll was a repeat of a survey in 2011, in which experts saw Afghanistan, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Pakistan, India and Somalia as the most dangerous countries for women.

Experts said India moving to the top position showed not enough was being done to tackle the danger women faced, more than five years after the rape and murder of a student on a Delhi bus made violence against women a national priority. “India has shown utter disregard and disrespect for women … rape, marital rapes, sexual assault and harassment, female infanticide has gone unabated,” said Manjunath Gangadhara, an official at the Karnataka state government. “The (world’s) fastest growing economy and leader in space and technology is shamed for violence committed against women.”

Government data shows reported cases of crimes against women in India rose by 83% between 2007 and 2016, when there were four cases of rape reported every hour. The survey asked respondents which five of the 193 UN member states they thought were most dangerous for women and which country was worst in terms of healthcare, economic resources, cultural or traditional practices, sexual violence and harassment, non-sexual violence and human trafficking.

Respondents also ranked India the most dangerous country for women in terms of human trafficking, including sex and domestic slavery, and for customary practices such as forced marriage, stoning and female infanticide. India’s ministry of women and child development declined to comment. Afghanistan fared worst in four of the seven questions, with concerns over healthcare and conflict-related violence. (“Poll ranks India the world’s most dangerous country for women,” The Guardian, 28th June 2018)

The over-achieving non-White countries in that article — India, Syria, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia — have all supplied large numbers of migrants to Britain. And four of those non-White countries are majority-Muslim. But White-majority Britain itself isn’t one of the over-achievers when it comes to rape and other forms of violence against women. Nor does Britain regularly generate headlines like these in the Guardian:

So here’s a simple question: Do such articles in the Guardian show that “foreign men — or Muslims — are more prone to sexual offences than their British counterparts”?

Well, only in reality. And leftists believe that racist reality must always give way to anti-racist ideology. In any case, even if non-White men are “more prone to sexual offences” in their homelands, they immediately cease to be so when they’re resident on Western soil, which has special, supernatural qualities capable of transforming all non-Whites into fully authentic Westerners. Yes, leftists like David Renton also believe in “magic dirt,” as the leading hate-thinker Vox Day calls it. That’s why the male outsider Renton knows that local women are acting on racist “assumptions” when they object to the presence of vibrant-but-vulnerable men from countries which, according to “global experts” in the Guardian, perform so well in the competition to be crowned “world’s most dangerous country for women.”

Summarizing Semitic supremacism

Let’s sum up what we now know about the Jewish anti-fascist David Renton. He’s a Marxist materialist who believes in magic. He’s a fierce feminist who believes that White women should shut up and submit to sexual violence by non-White men. And he’s a dedicated defender of the working-class who believes that the White working-class must obey the diktats of an elite that hates them. How can we explain all these contradictions? I think there’s a big clue in the title of one of Renton’s many books. It’s called Labour’s Antisemitism Crisis: What the Left Got Wrong and How to Learn From It (2021).

What’s good for goyim is not good for Jews: Stone Toss on Jewish double standards

I think that, like his fellow Jewish anti-fascist Daniel Trilling, David Renton is interested only in defending what he sees as Jewish interests. He supports non-White migration because he thinks it’s good for Jews. And he was “one of the organisers” of the anti-fascist demonstration because he thinks pro-White activism is bad for Jews. I suggest that no other consideration truly matters to him. And certainly not the welfare of White women and girls. Those women and girls know from direct experience that “foreign men” and “Muslims” are indeed “more prone to sexual offences than their British [i.e., White] counterparts.” But so what? That’s the repulsive racism of reality. And Renton rejects reality because reality isn’t good for Jews.

CNN: Far-right activists ‘looted’ corporate assets to buy a castle, NY AG says in lawsuit

The New York attorney general’s office filed civil charges against far-right anti-immigration activist Peter Brimelow and his wife for allegedly misusing more than $2 million in assets, including a West Virginia castle, from a charitable foundation they run.

Brimelow founded VDARE, whose website has been a platform for white nationalist and anti-immigration viewpoints, and ran it with his wife Lydia until he suspended it in 2024 because of NY AG Letitia James’ investigation into its finances.

The lawsuit alleges the Brimelows used $1.4 million dollars of VDARE funds to acquire a castle complex in Berkeley Springs, West Virginia. They moved into the castle, transferred it to two entities they controlled and charged VDARE rent and fees for use of the space, according to the lawsuit.

“The Individual Defendants, as directors in control of VDARE, have looted or wasted the corporate assets, have perpetuated the corporation solely for their personal benefit, or have otherwise acted in an illegal, oppressive or fraudulent manner, by, inter alia; providing excessive compensation and benefits to themselves … and transferring VDARE’s most valuable asset, the Berkeley Castle Complex, to entities controlled by the Individual Defendants or their family through a series of illegal transactions and thereby allowing the use of VDARE’s assets for the personal benefit of themselves and their family,” the lawsuit alleges.

Authorities allege the Brimelows improperly continued to solicit donations to the charity after failing to file annual reports in violation of New York law.

James’ office has been investigating the Brimelows and VDARE since 2022. She is asking the judge to dissolve the foundation, order the Brimelows to pay restitution, and bar them from serving on VDARE or the board of any nonprofit or charity in New York state.

“The Brimelows used VDARE like their personal piggy bank, draining millions in charitable assets to enrich themselves,” James said in a statement Wednesday.

CNN has reached out to the Brimelows’ attorney for comment.

In 2024 when suspending the website, Brimelow said of James, “She has waged unprecedented, unethical, and unscrupulous lawfare against, for example, the National Rifle Association and, most notoriously, against President Donald J. Trump. And, much lower down the food chain, against the VDARE Foundation.”

He said at the time the investigation “bears no rational relationship to any conceivable offense.”

Last month a New York appeals court panel upheld James’ lawsuit alleging Trump, his adult sons, and the Trump Organization engaged in fraud but threw out a nearly half-billion judgment against the president and his family, finding it “excessive.” Both sides said they will appeal.

My Chinese Friend: America is a Nation of Immigrant Flatterers

September 3, 2025/2 Comments/in General/by Ann Coulter

When one of the best writers on anti-White racism feels the need to write a column about a noble immigrant, we have to wonder if America’s ethno-masochism has gone too far.

Has it been mandated by law that everyone have a heartwarming story about a plucky, hardworking immigrant?

Liberals don’t like Americans, so they’re left out of this question. But Jeremy Carl? He wrote the excellent book “The Unprotected Class: How Anti-White Racism Is Tearing America Apart.” And his article came out the same week that sensible economist Tyler Cowen uttered his own lunacy about our marvelous immigrants.

This bizarre reflex demands an explanation.

Carl’s story is about a young Chinese boy taken in and befriended by U.S. Marines stationed in China at the end of World War II. They sheltered him from the ChiComs, fed him, gave him a bed and a Marine uniform and paid for him to attend a Christian school. After the U.S. pulled out, the communists took over, and the Chinese boy suffered, but he finally managed to get in touch with his Marine buddies in the U.S., who arranged for him to come to America, where he started a Chinese restaurant, featuring pictures of Marines and discounts for any Marine.

While it’s terrific to hear about any immigrant who isn’t angrily accusing Americans of racism these days, it seems to me the real heroes of this story are the Marines. Can we learn a little more about them? Nah, they’re just Americans.

Cowen’s article is about America’s living standards surpassing Europe’s by leaps and bounds. Among our advantages, he says, is immigration — which would come as a surprise to Californians, who took in 30 million Mexicans and immediately went from Reagan Country to The Open Sewer State.

But Cowen says Europe’s immigrants — in contrast to ours, apparently — “are from quite different non-Western cultures.”

Our immigrants are raping children, running vast human trafficking operations, performing bizarre Santeria rituals, committing complicated credit card frauds and stealing billions of dollars from U.S. government programs. Not exactly de Tocqueville’s America.

Describing the contributions of each immigrant group Cowen praises is beyond the purview of this column — that will be a coming attraction. We’ll look only at the “top achievers” he says we’re getting from Afghanistan and East Africa, inasmuch as that claim was clearly calculated to tick us off.

Like most Americans, 99% of Afghans want sharia to be the law of the land, and 61% say it should apply to non-Muslims. Seventy-nine percent support the death penalty for leaving Islam, 60% approve of honor killings, and 39% think suicide bombings are sometimes justified.

Last year, two Afghans were arrested with AK-47s and 500 rounds of ammunition, with the intent of committing a terrorist attack on Election Day. We don’t even have that many Afghan immigrants, though we’ve got a lot more than we wanted, thanks to Joe Biden.

Our main source of immigration from East Africa is Ethiopia, a country with a rich history of genocide, constant warfare and ethnic cleansing. (New York Times headline last year: “Ethiopia’s Agony: ‘I Have Never Seen This Kind of Cruelty in My Life.’”) So that sounds promising.

One of Cowen’s thriving East African immigrants is Ethiopian Besam Semirali Bashwie. He entered the country in 2019 and within two years was arrested in Alexandria, Virginia, for racketeering. He was sentenced to five years, then released after a year in prison. Thereupon, he was re-arrested for driving drunk, released again, and in short order, he was charged with abduction with intent to defile, poisoning by other methods and felony sexual penetration by force. He’s what we call a “striver.”

Just this month, an Ethiopian naturalized citizen was criminally charged with fraudulently receiving U.S. citizenship by lying about his participation in the 1970s Ethiopian Red Terror.

Why would a respected economist feel obliged to wax lyrical about Afghan and East African immigrants?

At least Carl’s piece wasn’t hilariously wrong, just pointless. Is there a deficit of praise for immigrants? Has there been a lull in the endless prattle about their wonderfulness?

Where does this primal urge to praise immigrants come from? Do French writers regularly pop off about the fantastic American ex-pats they know? Are Indians driven to give hourly tributes to the British who brought them railways, roads, canals, bridges, indoor plumbing, commercial food production, irrigation systems, the telegraph, the rule of law, etc. etc.? I know Zimbabweans don’t pen homilies to White farmers; they kill or exile them.

There would seem to be two possible explanations:

1) Our pervasive liberal monoculture has managed to inculcate conservatives into the belief that anyone is better than an American. That seems implausible. They haven’t persuaded us of anything else.

2) More likely, conservatives are embarrassed about the fact that Western culture is so vastly superior to every other culture in the world, and their praise for immigrants is how they give a little pat on the head to people from the inferior cultures. Good job, Zippy. We’re all proud of you.
