Implicitly White themes in “The Hobbit”

December 28, 2012/136 Comments/in Arts and Clture and Politics, Featured Articles, Implicit Whiteness/by Kevin MacDonald

The Hobbit is a bit long, and some of the scenes could have been edited down. But I am not really complaining. It held my interest. The only thing is that it has a sort of “one thing after another for no good reason” feel—the result of a lot of padding needed to make […]

It’s time for our annual year-end fundraising appeal—our only appeal of the year. I’d like to first thank those who have contributed during 2012. Much appreciated .

Ron Unz in the New York Times

December 26, 2012/67 Comments/in Costs of Multiculturalism, White Victimization/by Kevin MacDonald

In my article on Ron Unz’s “The Myth of American Meritocracy” I noted that it did not get much buzz in the above ground media. But Unz managed to get a brief comment in the New York Times “Room for Debate” feature (“Fears of an Asian Quota in the Ivy League“). Unz uses some of the data […]

Syria and the uniqueness of the West

December 20, 2012/66 Comments/in Featured Articles, Western Civilization, Western Culture/by Kevin MacDonald

One of the themes at TOO is the uniqueness of the West, which basically comes down to individualism. The great achievement of the West has been the construction of civil societies where allegiance to family, kin, and religious sect are minimized. In Western societies, the personal qualities of the individual (character, intelligence, talent) rather than these […]

Obama versus the Israel Lobby, Act 2

December 19, 2012/88 Comments/in Israel Lobby/by Kevin MacDonald

Jim Lobe reports that senior White House officials have leaked information that Chuck Hagel “was likely” to be the Obama Administration’s nominee for Secretary of Defense when Leon Panetta leaves. What’s not surprising is that the neocons have gone into full-on attack mode, including charges of anti-Semitism. Writing in the Wall Street Journal, Bret Stephens complains because Hagel […]

Ron Unz on the illusory American meritocracy

December 13, 2012/362 Comments/in Featured Articles, Jews as a Hostile Elite, Jews as An Elite, White Victimization/by Kevin MacDonald

French Translation, by Armor An enduring aspect of the self-concept of Jews is that their ascent to elite status in America and elsewhere is the natural result of a meritocracy. For example, after Elena Kagan was nominated for the Supreme Court, Robert Frank penned an article in the Wall Street Journal (“That Bright, Dying Star, […]

Ann Coulter: The Republican demise is all Teddy Kennedy’s fault

December 7, 2012/199 Comments/in Mainstream Conservatives/by Kevin MacDonald

Ann Coulter’s column, “America nears a demographic tipping point,” has some good, if unoriginal points. Yes, we are nearing the point where pretty much all the White people will have to unite behind a candidate to win a presidential election. Even young Whites voted for Romney, with only 41% voting for Obama. This despite being […]
