ABC’s Hostin: ‘You Don’t Move on’ from January 6 — It Was Like WWII, Holocaust, Slavery

January 6, 2025/6 Comments/in General/by Kevin MacDonald

Pretty much the worst event in human history. Just a little bit over the top. And she doesn’t seem to realize that Jewish orgs will be furious. The big H is unique and beyond comparison to anything—even the J6 horror.

ABC’s Hostin: ‘You Don’t Move on’ from January 6 — It Was Like WWII, Holocaust, Slavery

ABC News legal analyst Sunny Hostin said Monday on ABC’s “The View” that the United States should not “move on” from the events of January 6, 2021, because it “was one of the worst moments in American history” like World War II, the Holocaust and slavery.

Hostin said, “I think we need to find moral clarity you know in this country. And I just remember after January 6 you had someone like Mitch McConnell placing the blame on January 6 where it belonged squarely on Donald Trump’s shoulders and then you started seeing people backtrack that and losing their moral center. You had Condoleezza Rice, I believe, on this very show saying, you know, we need to move on from January 6.”

 

 

She continued, “I say no, you don’t move on because January 6 was an atrocity.”

Hostin added, “It was one of the worst moments in American history. And when you think about the worst moments in American history, you know, like World War II things like happened like the Holocaust, chattel slavery. We need to never forget because past becomes prologue if you forget and erase. We need to never forget because past becomes prologue if you forget and erase.”

The Tech-Bro Apocalypse

January 5, 2025/6 Comments/in General/by Kevin MacDonald

A must read.

Matthew Louis on Gallows Humor:

The Tech-Bro Apocalypse

The Trump 2.0 honeymoon is over, and the marriage may be doomed…and it’s all about race after all.

Welp, we can stick the old fork in Elon, Vivek, and maybe MAGA. It turns out, as many suspected, that the current Trump coalition is something less than America First. Yeah, damage control has begun, message softening and backpedaling is underway, but that’s like Jeffrey Dahmer telling you he’s just into shakes and burgers now. We can’t unknow what we know, and like a certain famous book says, increaseth your knowledge, increaseth your sorrow.

We’ve definitely increased our knowledge, and hence our sorrow, with regard to Trump’s main proxies, and the agenda of Trump 2.0.

It all began some time around Christmas, with a little harmless Twittering between Elon and his public, about the former’s desire to ramp up the importation of Indian “talent.” But it quickly spiraled, and then spiraled some more, and soon became the bitterest of debates about nothing but race…although many don’t want to admit the debate is about nothing but race.

Now the debate is an all-out right-wing dogfight, with not only no resolution in sight, but no resolution possible. Elon has, for practical purposes, imploded. When various MAGA hardliners and “far right” influencers began mauling him, “ratio-ing” him, embarrassing him on the issue of Indian imports, he—assuming he’s even a real person—responded by stripping his critics’ account privileges, actually nuking numerous accounts, and announcing a new shadow-banning algorithm. He further responded by shifting fully into blue-haired rage mode, calling his critics—what else?—racists, telling them to “take a big step back and FUCK [THEMSELVES] in the face,” and declaring that anyone more radical than Jeb Bush will be removed “root and stem” from the American right.

Yes, that is our flagship free-speech platform, as overseen by the era’s principal crusader against wokeness.

Then it got more absurd. Seeing that his comrade was self-immolating, Vivek showed up to douse the flames…with a bucket of kerosene. In a brief X essay, the swami of rami explained that American culture is garbage, due to its lionization of dumb jocks and its proclivity for brain-rotting entertainment…as opposed to the diligent nerd ethic that supposedly drives our deep-brown saviors…the implication being that Indians, and presumably any other aliens who manage to set foot on US soil, are objectively, quantitatively—by default, even—superior to Americans.

A rather insane thing to say to the blue- and white-collar white Americans who are the backbone of Trumpism…people whose dads, brothers, and grandpas—and who often enough, themselves—have regularly lined up to kill and die for whatever the fuck America is. But, you see, the vision of the “tech bros”—of the Elons and Viveks and the Silicon Valley kingpins who have purchased Trumpism—is not of a nation that some set of specific people call home, but simply of a place where profitability is maximized by whoever evinces the most cut-throat shrewdness, and whoever will work the hardest for the least pay.

Pick up my guitar and play, just like yesterday…

The desire to get rich, and the willingness to work 18-hour days and sleep 18 to a room, is—they are telling us—what makes one American. Period.

And that, folks, is the actual fault-line on the right; that’s what regularly causes our bitterest divisions, dating back to Pat Buchanan’s slug-fests with the neocons. Is America a Western nation with a particular history, or is it a mere rule-book that anyone “seeking a better life” can follow? That’s the very fault-line Trump stomped on, causing the political earthquakes we’re all familiar with, when he said Mexico isn’t sending its best. And that is, in fact, the only real theme of Trumpism. Reality-TV Trump became President Trump, you may remember, because he explicitly and unequivocally promised to wall us off from brown people, to give blue-collar jobs back to rednecks, and to end political correctness…i.e., to end the requirement that we mince words about this shit.

All else is window dressing. Like it or not, MAGA boils down, just like the commies say, to white America’s profound and utter fatigue with multiculturalism. The Trump base loves its bombastic blacks, its heroic Hindus, its face-tattooed hip-hop clowns, and its trannies and faggots, because it is presumed that these people will facilitate policy changes by attracting voters…and the precise nature of the hoped-for policy changes is, ironically enough, returning us to standards that minimize normal White Americans having to deal with the aforementioned.

MAGA, in short, is now and has never been anything but, an attempt to get back to Norman Rockwell America—or at all events, to move as far as possible in that direction—by enduring whatever freaks and aliens are necessary (Trump himself is a bit of a freak, after all), and attenuating and dressing up the message in whatever way is necessary.

That, and nothing more, is what the apocalyptic “crash-out” of Elon and Vivek illustrates. The underlying debate, as I said, is strictly racial. It’s been brought into high-def clarity by the fact that the race at issue is Indians who—Vivek and Mrs. Vance notwithstanding—are as aesthetically antithetical to Americanism as turds are to punch bowls. I mean, Blacks at least have jive and swagger, and they are at any rate baked into the American cake. Latinos, likewise, as our next-door neighbors, have been spicing up Americana from the beginning, and come with free chips and salsa, and decent beer. Indians, though, at scale—with any level of visibility or influence beyond the token Westernized pundit and a cartoon character warbling about slushies—offer essentially nothing…that is, nothing that Americans find intriguing, useful, or even pleasant. We share zero history with them, they have a peculiar relationship with feces, and they have peculiar smells and peculiarer physiognomy. They are, by every metric, on the average, an acute cramp in the national style.

But that’s just my sense of it. And probably yours. And in point of fact, the sense of alien repulsion is mutual. Scratch the surface of the typical Indian and you find seething anti-White hatred…as one of Elon’s top employees demonstrated…and as Vivek himself subtly but unmistakably demonstrated in his X essay.

Only bigots don’t want to import this.

But who says that every human group has to be in love with every other human group? What I’m saying—and what the Trump base is saying, whether it knows it or not—is that’s the whole point of nations. Why are we pretending that America wasn’t founded by a bunch of Anglo-Saxon racialists who envisioned a White, culturally Christian utopia? And why are we pretending that that wasn’t the central, presupposed, defining American vision right up to, like, yesterday? And the big question is: What in the fuck is wrong with that? Japan is Japan, with its own people. Nigeria is Nigeria. Mexico is Mexico. Etc. Mix in other people, put other people in charge, and soon enough Japan and Nigeria and Mexico are just going to be names for completely different cultures, societies, and aggregations of DNA.

Same with America. It’s a place where White immigrants came to seek opportunity, under an Anglo-Saxon ethos, and to continue themselves as new blends of White people, in perpetuity. Around the edges there was the holdover from the slave population, bleedover from Latin America, a few Indians of the feather variety, a Chinatown or two…but that was around the edges. There’s a reason why Norman Rockwell’s subject matter was exactly what it was. That reason is that America had—and underneath the encrusted grime of our current culture, still has—a very specific, very White, and very Christian identity.

The tech-bro vision completely, and intentionally, negates that history. In fact, the tech-bro vision is just the flipside of the shitlib vision. It is profit-seeking as an end in itself, as opposed to shitlibs’ wealth redistribution as an end in itself. But to what ultimate end are we seeking our profit? Elon talks about “winning”—but winning what, exactly? Spiritual questions aside, the less your ancestors’ legacies exist, the less physical territory is exclusive to your people, the less your cultural traditions and fucking DNA exist, the less you’re winning…period.

The tech bros tell us we must prioritize “competition” and “meritocracy,” but why? If Brad Pitt makes a play for my wife, should I shrug and say, “Well, Brad is richer and handsomer, after all”? Should I eat a bullet because I’m not Brad Pitt? Should I abstract it out to the improvement of mankind as a whole, because Brad has better genes to pass along? Or should I strive to keep what I have, and to continue myself, for no fucking other reason than that I am myself?

The tech-bro paradigm does, as I said, precisely what the shitlib paradigm does. It’s designed to put us—namely, “legacy Americans”—in the position of having to justify our existence. If we can’t explain why we’re good enough, within their arbitrary frameworks, we forfeit our right to continue as a people. If we’re not “anti-racist” enough according to the shitlibs, or “pro-competition” enough according to the tech bros, we are morally…and it just so happens, genetically…obsolete.

A crash course in Trumpism.

And, having put it in those terms, let’s just call the tech-bro op what it is: another globalist, even communistic, anti-White con. I reject all its premises. As Americans, we have every right to tell people to fuck off to wherever they come from, and to never show their alien faces in these parts again, no matter how many hours they want to work for how little pay. Why? For no other reason than they aren’t us. For no other reason than have a look at my Norman Rockwell calendar. Sure, give us a 10, 20, 50 percent reduction in marketplace viability…so what? We will still exist, as us. We can improve, as us, if we care to. We can share our wealth more equitably, or we can train for higher productivity. But first, and primarily, we have to exist. If we fail at that, we fail completely. If America continues under the title “America,” but every public place looks and smells like a third-world flea market, it doesn’t matter how much your bank account or mine runneth over. We’ve lost everything.

And, of course, the idea that we need non-Westerners is rank bullshit anyway. Indians, Africans, Latin Americans, and everyone else in the “developing world” is clawing over each other to gain entrance into white countries precisely because Westerners don’t need them. Our societies are clean, safe, technologically advanced, etc. because, to put it plainly, we’re fucking awesome. You know just like I do that without a single brown or black or even yellow face, every Western country—from down under to the whole of Europe to Canada to the US and throw in South Africa—would be operating at its respective optimum. The infrastructures, the courts, the art and culture, the general happiness, name it…all systems go, and no need for any paragons of diversity to subject themselves to any systemic injustice or microaggressions.

That is…if you want the unvarnished, Trumpian truth. Remember when the Donald said, “We don’t have time for political correctness,” and the whole right broke out into applause and cheering? Well, this is what that looks like. This is all we were ever talking about. Countries are shitholes, or countries are relative utopias, because of the aggregations of brainpower and social instincts of the people in the countries. Western countries are relative utopias, every single time, because Western peoples are what they are. America is America because of the “whiteness” that we associate with it. If we lie about that—if we have to lie about it because of “competition” or “anti-racism” or any other moralistic blackmail scheme—well, then, we might as well have run fucking Jeb in 2016, and just resigned ourselves to what the shitlibs and tech bros have planned for us.

The Hite Three

January 4, 2025/5 Comments/in Featured Articles, General/by Robert S. Griffin, Ph.D.

The Hite Three, as I call them, are three precepts, prescriptions, rules to live by, somewhere in there, that you might want to try out to see how they work for you. Hite refers to Shere Hite, a woman who was big in American life back in the 1970s and ‘80s. She came up with the Hite Three, though she didn’t call them that.
Shere Hite was best known for a book she wrote in 1976 on women’s sexuality that sold in the multi-millions called The Hite Report. She wrote other books, all of them on sexual practices and perspectives, men’s as well as women’s, that got attention though none made a splash like The Hite Report.

The Hite Report

This is not the place to go into The Hite Report’s content in any detail. Enough to say here that it was controversial. A major example, Hite’s claim that women do way better coming to an orgasm through masturbation than from someone lying on top of them thrusting in and out, which results in them faking it a lot of the time. You might want to read the book. It’ll give you a sense of the who-needs-men posture of the emerging second wave women’s movement in those years, as well as the tone of the ‘70s in general.

The success of The Hite Report was increased by the “wow” quality of young, glamorous, fashion-model-esque, super cool Shere Hite, who was everywhere in the media—TV, newspapers, and magazines, including nude Playboy poses. No internet back then of course.

Shere Hite

Here’s a video of her in 1976:

Hite came to my attention recently watching an excellent 2023 documentary on her, “The Disappearance of Shere Hite,” something else you might want to check out. The actress Dakota Johnson—Don’s daughter with Melanie Griffith for those of you old enough to remember–was major in producing it and does the voice of Hite when needed.

The Disappearance of Shere Hite

The title of the documentary gets at the fact about Shere Hite that particularly intrigued me and got me thinking: in 1990, she disappeared from view. She went from being in the public consciousness to, in a flash, no segue, no farewell speech, gone, and for good. According to the documentary, she got fed up with the static she was getting about her books and her persona and decided who needs it and hit the road.

What had been going on, and it was intensifying, is that men in particular weren’t taking to Hite telling them—or so they thought anyway, I think they were overreacting—that they were needy and unnecessary annoyances in women’s lives. A lot of people, women as well as men, came at the validity of the research methodology Hite employed to generate the data that supported her conclusions. She distributed surveys with open-ended questions here, there, and everywhere, and people mailed in completed surveys to her in New York City. She based The Hite Report on what the 3,000 women who chose to mail in their surveys reported. By the way, nobody ever questioned Hite’s work ethic—she toiled away day and night to get The Hite Report and her other books out.

To be sure, the survey responses Hite compiled for The Hite Report didn’t comprise a representative sample of all women, but she came on as if it did. If I’d been around her, I would have suggested she acknowledge that her data didn’t hold up as a random sample, but still, what 3, 000 women, and that’s a lot of people, think about their sex lives, whether or not they are representative of the total population of women, should prompt the rest of us to think through how we come down on these same concerns, and that’s a worthwhile activity apart from whether or not her pool of respondents to her surveys would pass muster in Statistics 201.

Another criticism of Hite is that some people were rubbed the wrong way by what they perceived as her haughty, better-than-thou manner. Not me. In the clips I’m seen of her, I found her to be articulate, gracious, and charming.

The documentary reveals that Hite went to Europe and stayed there until her death in 2020 at seventy-seven after years of suffering from a Parkinson’s-like illness. I find it hard to imagine young, vital, beautiful Shere Hite as a physically ill, diminished, dying old woman. I don’t know of pictures of her after she dropped out of sight, so Shere Hite remains, per the Bob Dylan song, forever young.

From the documentary, I picked up on what I’m calling the Hite Three that she used as personal guidelines, including cutting out for Europe. I’ve thought about them and put my twist on them and tried them out and they’ve seemed to help me live better.

The three:
1. Take your life very seriously. As time goes along, do what you can to boost your “take my life seriously” level and be vigilant to anybody or anything that lowers it. This can get subtle: A relationship can be good but at the same time trivialize your existence. An article, say in this internet magazine, can be excellent but make you feel as if you are on the outside looking in at life’s drama. A conference speaker can make a superb presentation and leave you feeling that he is the star of the show, standing up high, in the spotlight, and you’re a lesser being in the audience, sitting down, in the dark. Tucker Carlson could do a fine interview and the best thing you can think of to do after it is watch LeBron James shoot free throws. The ideal is to develop a healthy perversity of sorts: if somebody/something, which includes what you think and do, cues you to take your life less seriously, make that a prod to take yourself more seriously.

2. If anybody is laying a negative concept of who you are on you, leave. Leaving can be what Hite did, vacating the premises, heading out to New Mexico or going in the next room or to the garage to work on your car. It can also mean leaving in place, as it were: right here, don’t go anywhere, make the other person invisible, no energy positive or negative sent in his/her direction; you’re in the room but not in the room as far as this person is concerned. Speaking of Bob Dylan, a couple nights ago I watched the documentary “Dont Look Back” (Dont is not a typo) about his 1965 concert tour of Britain. The singer Joan Baez, who once was personally close to Dylan and seemed to think she still was, was smiling and chattering away a few feet from him, but to Dylan it was if she wasn’t there. He didn’t as much as look at her. No animosity, no coolness toward her, no agenda with her at all, just nothing. She finally went back to the U.S., and you might imagine Dylan’s reaction, or better, non-reaction, to that. I’d put what Dylan did in the category of leaving.

3. For three days, shut your personal act down. Get away from everything and everybody, which in our time, for just about all of us, means work, people, rituals and habits, the entertainment industry, news shows, the internet, social media, and texting. Just you here and now, a walk by the lake, cook a meal, sit in a chair. Books and movie streaming and journal writing are OK, or I guess, or maybe not, I don’t know. Another metaphor to get at this idea, put a “Closed” sign on the door of your particular business, what you try to sell to your customers (the people in your life) every day all day. No to-do list for the three days, no topics and issues to ponder. Breathe in and breathe out and let whatever comes up present itself to you, and if you want to, think about it, give it meaning, identify its implications, and if you don’t have the impulse to do any of that, that’s fine too. Another way to say it: for three days, don’t do, be.

I did the three-day shut down. It’s not necessary to get into what came out of it for me. Enough to say it was well worth my time and I recommend doing it.

As for the two other “Hites” during the three days:

Not that I’m not taking my life seriously now, but I should take it more seriously. During the backed-off time, what and who (including me) is impeding getting that done came into focus.

And yes, I have to some leaving. And since the opposite of a good thing is most often also a good thing, I have to get better at staying. I need to say YES rather than yes to some people.

It’s only been a few weeks, but I’ve already gotten on with doing some good things in a “Hite” direction, which has been gratifying and encouraging. I feel—and I mean that literally, the organism I experience, feel, as me—clearer and stronger, less vulnerable, and more directed after working with the Hite Three, enough to put the energy into writing this up. Your call as to what, if anything, to do with what’s here.

David Shulman: A deadly apathy

January 2, 2025/4 Comments/in General/by Kevin MacDonald

Unusual to see a Jewish writer talk of “Jewish supremacists” and the lack of any concern for Palestinian suffering. But the fanatics are in charge, so it’s not going to make any difference either in Israel or the diaspora. The Jewish community always ends up following the extremists because in the  end, very few Jews want to cut themselves off from the mainstream.

A Deadly Apathy

David Shulman in The New York Review of Books
A blank indifference to cruelty and atrocity as a normative mode of waging war has infected Israel’s collective conscience.

January 16, 2025 issue

A Palestinian woman whose family is preparing to abandon their home in the West Bank village of Zanuta to escape violence by Israeli settlers

A Palestinian woman whose family is preparing to abandon their home in the West Bank village of Zanuta to escape violence by Israeli settlers, October 30, 2023. The Israeli settlement of Havat Mitarim is on the hilltop in the distance.

This winter in Israel-Palestine is a dark one, and not because the days are shorter. We have war crimes, man-made famine, and ethnic cleansing in both Gaza and the West Bank. Since early October the army has intermit- tently stopped humanitarian aid—namely food—from entering the northern part of Gaza, which has a population of some 200,000 or more. Much of that population has now been forcibly displaced toward the tent cities farther south, but it seems that tens of thousands of Palestinians are still hanging on in Jabaliya and Beit Lahiya, where the fighting and the bombing continue. Brigadier General Itzik Cohen, who is in command in the Jabaliya arena, has claimed that there are no civilians left in the north of Gaza. Oddly, many of these nonexistent ordinary people are being killed nearly every day. Here is one egregious example. On October 29, after four soldiers were killed in Beit Lahiya, the army bombed a five-story apartment building; it claimed that a “lookout” had been sighted on the roof. Nearly a hundred people died, at least twenty of them children, and we have no count of the wounded. An obscene question arises: Was it worth it—for a presumed lookout? But I can’t help asking myself: For this we created a Jewish state?

Judging by reports from the field, the plan seems to be to maintain Israeli control of northern Gaza indefinitely and—if the apocalyptic Messianists have their way—to settle it with Jews, as if nothing has been learned from the bitter experience of the past. We even have a high-ranking theorist of the current catastrophe in Gaza—retired major general Giora Eiland—who thinks that besieging a city or a country is perfectly legitimate under the rules of war, even if innocents who can’t or won’t get out die of starvation or illness.

It seems that his plan for Gaza has now become the government’s plan.

What comes next? I fear that it will be full-scale war with Iran. Reports from early December describe the situation in Beit Lahiya as unthinkable misery—rotting corpses in the ruins, no food, no water, no place to hide, no let-up in the bombings—while mass starvation has taken hold in the south of Gaza, partly because local criminal gangs commandeer the supply trucks that manage to get through the blockade.

Let’s put aside, for the moment, the hard-hearted rationalizations that are all too prevalent among Israelis, such as “It’s all the fault of Hamas,” or “They started it,” or “Our soldiers’ lives come first,” or “Our enemies want only to destroy us,” or “All Arabs are Hamas.” (This last one is common among Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s supporters and very close to his stated view of the Palestinian Authority.) What is striking, and horrific, is the fact that Israel has embraced cruelty and atrocity as a normative mode of waging war. It’s not as if there was no cruelty in the army’s rules of war before October 7, 2023. But since that date a dark miasma has enveloped the collective conscience of this country. If you watch the evening news on the mainstream Channel 2, or listen to government ministers and members of the Knesset, or even if you simply pay attention to accidental encounters with passersby, you usually perceive a blank indifference to the huge civilian casualties in Gaza, in Lebanon, and—in particular—among Palestinians in the West Bank. The government sets the tone; the army, although at odds with Netanyahu, follows suit; the Jewish supremacists marshal biblical texts proving the joys of revenge. For them, and for many others in Israel, tens of thousands of dead Palestinian civilians in Gaza are an acceptable price to pay for a reckless, savage war. …

New Year’s Resolutions for Indian Immigrants

January 1, 2025/3 Comments/in General/by Ann Coulter

How Vivek Can Be Less Obnoxious!

1. I will try to be a more humble — or even a little bit humble — and will encourage my fellow Indians to cease producing reams of articles with headlines like these:

— “Indians flying high in Silicon Valley“;

— “Indian talent crucial for America’s tech industry“;

— “Why Indian-born CEOs dominate Silicon Valley”

… lest anyone notice that the tech industry explosion was created by 90% white American men, and 10% white men from places like South Africa, Germany and Poland. Not an Indian, Latin American or Chinese in the bunch. (Though some, I assume, are good people.)

For example:

Google — 2 white men, one from Michigan and one from Russia (Larry Page and Sergey Brin).

Twitter — 4 white American men (Jack Dorsey, Noah Glass, Biz Stone and Evan Williams).

LinkedIn — 1 white American man (Reid Hoffman)

Netflix — 2 white American men (Marc Randolph and Reed Hastings).

Netscape — 2 white American men (Jim Clark and Marc Andreessen).

Apple Computer — 2 white American men, (Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak. The adopted Jobs’ biological father was a Syrian immigrant, admitted well before the nation-destroying 1965 immigration act. See below.)

Mozilla Firefox — 2 white American men (Dave Hyatt and Blake Ross).

Oracle — 3 white American men (Larry Ellison, Bob Miner and Ed Oates)

Uber — 1 white American man and 1 Canadian white man (Garrett Camp and Travis Kalanick)

PayPal — 3 white men, immigrants from Germany, Russia and Poland (Peter Thiel, Max Levchin and Luke Nosek).

Yelp — 2 white American men (Jeremy Stoppelman and Russel Simmons)

Zillow — 1 white American man (Richard Barton)

Craigslist — 1 white American man (Craig Newmark)

Pandora — 3 white American men (Will Glaser, Jon Kraft and Tim Westergren)

Wikipedia — 1 white American man (Jimmy Wales)

Zynga — 1 white American man (Mark Pincus)

Must remember to remind my boastful Indian colleagues that Americans have won hundreds of Nobel prizes in the sciences, while India, with more than 4 times the population, has won only five.

Based on the record of accomplishment, if we really want the top talent (and not the cheapest), we ought to be slashing the Indian cap on H1B visas, and hike the cap on Israelis, South Africans, Germans and Russians, currently discriminated against because of the humungous Indian allotment.

2. I will not brag about Indian culture revering nerds like me until just one of the 1.4 billion Indians manages to produce anything as world-changing as Apple computer, created by Steve Wozniak — expelled from one college and a drop-out from another — along with Steve Jobs — a hippie college dropout, who was, by the grace of God, raised by his high school drop-out father, a white male American mechanic.

3. I will not run for president, unless I am a third-generation immigrant, imbued with the cultural values so utterly foreign to my parents and grandparents, but which have made America the greatest country on earth. These include the God-given rights to bear arms, to free speech and to free association, and the revolutionary idea that all men are equal under the law (even those filthy Dalits, whom my fellow Indians are refusing to hire in Silicon Valley).

It’s rather embarrassing that, of the first three people to announce for president as a Republican in this past cycle, two were second-generation Indian immigrants. (The third was Trump.) I and my people have got to temper our enormous hubris.

I will not wait until months after having Ann Coulter on my podcast to fire back at her on Ezra Klein’s New York Times podcast, for saying she wouldn’t vote for an Indian to be president of the United States. I especially won’t employ the pussy claim that I had much better arguments, but held back out of politeness.

[BONUS RESOLUTION FOR JEWISH IMMIGRANTS FROM BRAZIL, LIKE KLEIN: I will not whine that I am “sad” that Coulter won’t vote for an Indian for president — at least until Brazil elects an Indian president (or any non-Brazilian), Israel elects an Indian president (or any non-Jew) and India elects any non-Indian president.]

4. In fact, I will not run for any government office until both of my parents and I were born here.

In particular, if I am Representative Pramila Jayapal, I will get on my knees and give thanks every day that the United States does not have physical appearance requirement for immigrants.

Having been let in for no good reason when I was 16 years old, I will not dedicate myself to forcing my host country to bring in ever more immigrants, specifically Muslim immigrants after 9/11, and illegal immigrants.

I will not do this because it’s utterly gauche — like a dinner guest rearranging your furniture, ripping out the wainscotting, and calling your kids to the dining room to re-name them. Continuing the metaphor, as an Indian immigrant, my qualifications to overhaul someone else’s happy household is that I came from a homeless shelter, rife with leprosy, dengue and typhoid.

5. I will try to remember that I have moved from a country notorious for cheating to a high-trust society (although a little less “high trust” ever since Teddy Kennedy’s 1965 immigration act began dragging in people from other low-trust societies, like mine).

Thus, I will not scale the outer walls of my kids’ school during exams and hang from the windows to pass them cheat sheets, as is done in India. I will not purchase advance copies of tests, leading to decades of headlines like these:

— Gangs Are Making Millions Helping Indians Cheat on Exams

— India: Mass cheating unveiled in exam centre, teachers involved

— Mass cheating caught on cam, Sakti collector orders probe

— How exam scandals threaten the future of India’s young people

— India’s elite exams hit by corruption ‘scam’

I will not steal intellectual property, plagiarize someone else’s research or manipulate my own research results, a practice so widespread in my ancestral home that the Office of the United States Trade Representative put India on a blacklist of IP thieves.

I will not pay to have my nonsense “research” published in fake journals with bought-and-paid-for peer reviews, leading a consortium of news organizations (e.g., The New Yorker, Le Monde and the Indian Express), to dub India “one of the biggest global hubs” for pay-to-play publishing.

I will not brag about my culture admiring tools like Steve Urkel in “Family Matters,” when, by all accounts, my culture reveres conmen like Frank Abagnale Jr., in “Catch Me If You Can.”

6. I will recognize that slavery is strongly frowned upon in the U.S. and strive NOT to bring India’s enthusiasm for the institution to my new country. In particular, I will not use the H1B visa program to bring in dozens of slaves I purchased from their parents in India, including a slew of prepubescent girls to serve as my sex slaves.

That’s what “multimillionaire real estate magnate” Lakireddy Bali Reddy did (it’s easy to be a “multimillionaire” when you’re using slave labor) and, boy, was his face red when an American woman happened to spot a couple of his (dead) sex slaves being carried in rolled up carpets through the streets of Berkeley. For more, see “Adios, America!”

Sure, Mexicans, Egyptians and Koreans also get caught bringing slaves to America, but the prevalence of Indian immigrants in the U.S. slavery racket is hard to miss.

2023: “20-year-old Indian student … held captive for months without access to a bathroom, viciously beaten, and forced to work at three homes by his cousin and two other Indian-origin men.”

2020: “Gilroy couple [Amarjit and Balwinder Mann] charged with enslaving Indian immigrant.”

2012: “U.S. judge grants $1.5 million as compensation [from Indian diplomat, Neena Malhotra] to ‘enslaved’ Indian maid.”

2011: “Rockland D.A.: Family [Rajani, Aman Parveen and Vishal Jagota] Kept Indian Woman As Sex Slave.”

2008: “Varsha Sabhnani … from Indonesia, was convicted with her Indian-born husband … on a 12-count federal indictment that included forced labor, conspiracy [and] involuntary servitude.”

As part of my heroic resistance to slavery, I will not lie about the H1B program, which is nothing but indentured servitude, outlawed in my new country in 1867 by the Peonage Act. No right to quit means it’s serfdom. I will get that as a tattoo.

BBC staffers reveal editor’s ‘entire job’ to whitewash Jewish war crimes

December 31, 2024/3 Comments/in General/by Kevin MacDonald

Hasbara perpetrated by Jews in positions of power throughout the West

From VT Foreign Policy:

BBC editor Raffi Berg has almost complete control of the British broadcaster’s online coverage of Israel’s war on Gaza and is ensuring that all events are reported with a pro-Israel bias, according to a new report published on 28 December by Drop Site News.

“This guy’s entire job is to water down everything that’s too critical of Israel,” one former BBC journalist said.

Drop Site News spoke to 13 current and former staffers who stated that the BBC’s coverage consistently devalues Palestinian life, ignores Israeli atrocities, and creates a false equivalence in an entirely unbalanced conflict.

Another BBC journalist said Berg plays a key role in a broader BBC culture of “systematic Israeli propaganda.”

“How much power he has is wild,” said another journalist.

“There was an extreme fear at the BBC, that if you ever wanted to do anything about Israel or Palestine, editors would say: ‘If you want to pitch something, you have to go through Raffi and get his signoff,” another journalist explained.

In one case, Berg downplayed Amnesty International’s accusation that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza.

Berg chose a headline that stated, “Israel rejects ‘fabricated’ claims of genocide,” to describe the Amnesty report and failed to post the story for 12 hours after it was written to suppress its online reach.

The journalists interviewed by Drop Site also noted that the Amnesty report was not covered on the BBC’s flagship news programs—BBC One’s News At One, News At Six, or News At Ten or its flagship current affairs program, BBC Two’s Newsnight.

“Anyone who writes on Gaza or Israel is asked: ‘Has it gone to edpol [editorial policy], lawyers, and has it gone to Raffi?’” another journalist said.

Raffi Berg, who wrote a book praising clandestine Mossad operations, wields great power to influence perceptions of Israel’s war on Gaza because the BBC news website is the most-visited news site on the internet, with over 1.1 billion visits in May alone.

Israel’s war on Gaza has killed over 45,000 Palestinians, the majority women and children, and flattened large swathes of the besieged enclave.

The pro-Israel bias imposed by Berg is evident in the language used to cover the war.

While stories “prominently” used words like “massacre,” “slaughter,” and “atrocities” to refer to Hamas, they “hardly, if at all,” used them “in reference to actions by Israel,” wrote Rami Ruhayem, a Beirut-based BBC Arabic correspondent.

In another case, the BBC published a story with a headline that hid Israel’s responsibility for killing an entire family in a missile strike.

“Israel Gaza: Father loses 11 family members in one blast,” the headline stated.

Drop Site notes that when the BBC does mention Israel as the perpetrator, it uses the caveat “reportedly.”

The BBC also uses euphemisms preferred by the Israeli army to hide its soldiers’ war crimes. For example, the BBC describes the forcible transfer or ethnic cleansing of Palestinian civilians as “evacuations.”
