Vibrancy and Viruses: Free Advice for Struggling Conservatives

/in /by

It’s heart-warming how generous liberals can be. On both sides of the Atlantic, they’re giving their political opponents free advice on how to win elections. And it’s uncanny how similar the advice is:

“Conservative party’s problem with ethnic minority voters is costing it seats: Ignoring the UK’s significant non-white population could diminish political parties’ reach for a parliamentary majority”

Research … has highlighted the growing importance of ethnic minorities in British parliamentary politics, putting numbers and names to seats that could be determined by their votes. … It presents a challenge for all politicians, but for the Conservatives it is a problem they are being warned could consign them to life without a majority or worse. Even in 2010, when Labour suffered one of its worst defeats, and after the Tory leader David Cameron tried to detoxify his party’s nasty image, the Conservatives made little inroad into the ethnic vote. Data shows that the Conservatives got 16% of ethnic minority votes, just ahead of the Liberal Democrats on 14%, while Labour got 68%. This is down from the 80% or more Labour has previously won, but came against the background of its worst electoral performance since 1918 as support slumped in all voting demographics.

A 2012 study by Professor Anthony Heath for the Runnymede Trust [a pro-ethnic lobbying organization founded by the Jewish lawyers Anthony Lester and Jim Rose] showed how stark antipathy towards the Conservatives was. Ethnicity trumped usual predictors of voting behaviour such as class and occupation, and Heath concluded: “Around seven in 10 ethnic minority voters support the Labour party, regardless of social class.” Senior Tories have been baffled over the years, viewing ethnic minorities as natural Conservatives because of strong adherence to family life, social conservatism and entrepreneurship. … (“Conservative party’s problem with ethnic minority voters is costing it seats”, The Guardian, 11th August 2013)

In America, Republicans are “baffled” in the same way when Hispanics and Asians vote en masse for the Democrats, despite being “natural conservatives” just like ethnic minorities in Britain. Read more

Antiracism without race may be quite complicated!

/2 Comments/in /by

Translated from the original French interview by Tom Sunic.

Q:  The French government has recently decided on the removal of the word ‘race’ from all official documents. Removing the word in order to eradicate the evil, is this not, spot on, some magical thinking? Moreover, if there are no races, how can there be any racism? And in passing, how can there be any antiracism at all? Antiracism without race, well, this may be quite complicated!

A: Don’t’ you worry. If the French Republic indeed claims not to recognize any longer “the existence of any alleged race,” it nonetheless declares that it “condemns racism.” Indeed, what will be more difficult to justify is the indictment for “incitement to racial hatred”, that is to say, the incitement to hate something that does not exist in the first place. From now on it will also be more difficult to justify the defense of miscegenation, since from now on this notion will refer to a mixture of imaginary entities, or the promotion of “diversity”, having in mind that “we do not recognize any race diversity.” (François Hollande, March 12, 2012). Finally, given that people insist on seeing and recognizing the “races” around them, somebody will really need to convince them that they are victims of optical illusions. Good luck to all those wishing to take on this task!

This being said, you’re not wrong at all when you mention magical thinking, given that both the words and the things are becoming all mixed up. For that matter we might just as well talk about demonology insofar as its focus is to exorcise the “evil thoughts” by uttering ritual formulas and mantras.  One must indeed be awed by the coincidence in the assertion of non-existence of races and the offensive of the gender ideology which also started out from the same premises. Thusly, race, just like sex, is only a “social construct” without any substantive reality. Hence the occurrence of  the same and typically Orwellian strategy with its lexical substitutes: “people” instead of “race”, “gender” instead of “sex”,  “parent” instead of “father” and “mother.” The underlying idea is that fighting racism implies the denial of the existence of races in a similar vein as fighting against sexism leads to the denial of the existence of sexes. Actually, one can attribute to men and women the same rights without requiring them to become androgynous. And that equality cannot be ascertained by the denial of diversity or by its reduction to sameness. Read more

Doreen and Karen – a tale of two mothers

/in , /by

The elevation of Mrs Doreen Lawrence to Britain’s highest parliamentary chamber, the House of Lords, should come as no surprise to seasoned observers of the British political elite.

For as the mother of arguably the most important murder victim in modern British history, she occupies a special place in the political firmament somewhere beside Bob Geldof and the late Princess Diana — perhaps equivalent to Rosa Parks or the parents of the sainted Trayvon Martin.

While no-one can put a name to any of the dozens of teenage Blacks murdered every year in London since then, Doreen’s son Stephen Lawrence was different — he was killed by Whites and his death was an opportunity to create the most potent weapon that has ever been aimed at the British people:  mass demonization.

In an earlier age, tactical area bombing was used to deliver a relentless, sustained and never-ending barrage to cow a civilian population. But instead of the RAF this time the propaganda barrage was delivered by the media and Doreen Lawrence played a vital role as a living symbol of the evils of White racism.

So in a sense, her ennoblement is for services to the political elite, the human-rights industrial complex, the bureaucratic class,  the media and for everyone else who has benefited from the murder which took place twenty years ago this year. Read more

Review of “Tales of New America”

/1 Comment/in , /by

Tales of New America
by Gunther Roosevelt

reviewed by Brian Hess

This newly-published collection of stories is based upon a scenario described on the volume’s back cover:

20–50 years from now when America has fallen apart economically, socially and racially. The Federal Government loses control as revenue dwindles and poverty spreads. To survive, States begin forming autonomous regions amidst the disintegration. Emerging from the disorder, Northern Mountain States of the west gradually form a new American Republic, de facto at first, finally in law, as it becomes a bastion of prosperity and a crucible of liberty. A religious and martial people arise with a will to reclaim ruined western States lost to invaders, oligarchs and degradation.

This process is nowhere described in the narrative itself, which begins in medias res with a vignette about a border patrol post located at the present boundary of Nevada and Idaho. A white couple with a three-year old child are attempting to enter New America under assumed identities. A young New American border guard notices their nervousness and sends them in for questioning, while a team of mechanics disassembles their car. New America has a great deal of cutting edge technology at its disposal, which the author takes pleasure in describing. A retina scanner and thumbprint reader quickly reveal the interlopers’ true identities.

Croatia and the Malodorous UDBA Ghosts

/1 Comment/in /by

The following is an  English translation of an article that was first published in French on the influential Polemia.com site.

warrantThe German BKA arrest warrant for Josip Perkovic (former head of the Communist Secret Police in ex-Yugoslavia)

The recent diplomatic dispute between Berlin and Zagreb, as well as the conspicuous absence of German Chancellor Angela Merkel during the festivities on July 1, 2013, which marked Croatia’s entry into the European Union, brought into the limelight the unresolved question of crimes committed by the UDBA (1), the former Yugoslav communist secret police. The dispute between the two capitals about the extradition of Josip Perkovic  —  which official Croatia is strongly opposed to – even resulted  in the adoption of  special law on his behalf. This individual, who still savours his retirement days in Croatia, had very likely masterminded, sponsored and planned (among other crimes) the murder of Stjepan Durekovic, a political émigré who had savagely been killed by a bunch of Yugoslavian henchmen on July 28th, 1983 in the suburbs of Munich.

JOSIP PERKOVIC

Josip Perkovic

Seen as an absolute nightmare for 45 years by Croatian émigrés and nationalists, the baleful UDBA managed to sneak through the recent war of Croatia’s secession (1991 – 1995) and survived the regime change. It rallied behind the first president of Croatia Franjo Tudjman, in order to avoid “lustration” (purges), with most of its senior executives now becoming cogs in the new machinery of the new Croatian state. Ministries, the Parliament, media, big business, administrations, diplomacy — rare are public fields where these former “suradnici” (aka “snitches”) don’t hold major positions. For example, in a recent article (June 10th, 2013), the Daily Mail writes about the surprising appointment of Croatian politician Neven Mimica, as a European Commissioner. Mimica  is described as a former member of the Yugoslavian secret police. With a monthly salary of 20.000 Euros, Mr. Mimica is the best paid civil servant in Croatian history. This explains why the present government (run by non-repentant old communists and their younger “liberal” offspring), is reticent to hand over their old buddy to the German authorities. Read more

Ultra-Orthodox Jewish Ethics: Gaming the System

/1 Comment/in , , /by

At TOO we have had several articles on the culture of corruption that pervades many traditional Jewish communities. Edmund Connelly’s “The Culture of Deceit” presents examples going back to the 18th century, citing Wilhelm von Dohm, a Prussian official that Jewish communities were engaged in “the breaking of the laws of the state restricting trade, the import and export of prohibited wares, the forgery of money and precious metals.”

In short, von Dohm describes traditional Jewish communities as far more resembling a mafia-like group engaged in organized crime than what we think of as a religion. Alexander Solzhenitsyn describes how Jews invented elaborate ways to get around laws on selling liquor and to avoid the military draft; they also sold shoddy goods to the Russian military with all that that implies  (see “The Mesira Mentality: Laws are Made to be Broken“).

Russian political prisoners in the Russian Federation

/in /by

Edited and translated by Roman Frolov

When reporting about the problem of political prisoners in Russia, mass media in Russia and abroad almost exclusively focus on Mikhail Khodorkovsky, the late Sergei Magnitsky and the “prisoners of May 6, 2012”. This creates an impression that the list of victims of political persecutions in Russia is limited by these people. However, in truth this is only the tip of the iceberg. Many, many others have been imprisoned during last several years for the sole ‘crime’ of being publically active Russian Nationalists. Here I briefly describe the history of the latest unlawful persecution of Russian Nationalists and Russian Nationalist organizations in the Russian Federation. The names and events described in this article are by no means comprehensive; they include only the most publicized instances of political persecution, in which — importantly — the accused did not confess and refused to collaborate with the prosecution.

An approximate number of Russian Nationalists imprisoned during the last decade is around two thousand. Most of them are young Russians, convicted under the notorious Article 282 of the Penal Code (“incitement to racial hatred,” also colloquially known as the ‘Russian Article’ or ‘hatespeech’), usually in aftermath of conflicts with Central Asians or Caucasians.
