The left loves to accuse the rest of us of hiding our racism through “code words”. Their list of code words might include “states’ rights”, “urban”, “high-crime area”, “youth” etc.
Typical of such leftists is Steve Rawley who writes:
Racism exists in many forms. Perhaps the most hurtful form is the unconscious kind, expressed inadvertently by people who consider themselves to be well-meaning. I don’t think anybody who contributes to the discussions at PPS Equity is a racist, but there have been times when non-white readers have contacted me in exasperation about some of the things they’ve read here.
Just for kicks, see how many code words you can spot in the following passage. This is a real comment on a different blog.We live in our neighborhood b/c it’s what we can afford, but the schools here are scoring so low and are socially very rough. We go to a charter school (thankfully k-8) about 4mi away, and have been developing a great community there. Most of the kids in our neighborhood go to various other schools too. Ironically, they are the more balanced, healthy kids that I prefer my kids befriend anyway. The ones from our neighborhood school are often yelling cusswords, lying, flipping each other off, and don’t seem to be supervised.
The type of “racism” Mr. Rawley complains about is, in fact, parents looking out for their own children. Leftists (and most of those in power) view freedom of association and parental instincts as evils that must be crushed.
While leftists moan and groan about whites voting with their feet, picking their own friends and protecting their children, we do not see them complaining about anti-white racism at all.
Kaiser Permanente is offering scholarships for students interested in pursuing careers in health care. Here is a snapshot of their application:
It is hard to be more transparent than this; Kaiser is plainly stating that Hispanics and blacks have preference over whites. Examples, such as the one above, are extremely easy to find. In fact, they are the norm. Apparently, people like Rawley do not consider such policies “hurtful”. Either that or he does not consider whites important enough to worry about. By the way, “underrepresented” is a code word for racism.
Hey, I too can come up with a list of code words that lefties use with regards to whites.
1. “Diversity.” Euphemistically, “diversity” means, “we need fewer white people.” This is a major leftist code word, which is often used as a rhetorical weapon against whites.
2. “Tolerance.” Translation: Whites must be tolerant and even bend over backwards to be accommodating of non-whites, but non-whites can be as militant, feisty, and aggressive towards us as they please. Oh, and if we object, we’re racists.
3. Speaking of that, the next word is “racist.” That might not seem like a code word to you, but it is. “Racist” simply means a white person, because guess what? Only white people can be racists! (ie. racism = prejudice + power, members of oppressed groups cannot be racist, etc).
4. “Multiculturalism.” This ties in with diversity, but differently. This word implies that whites have no culture, that whites are only allowed to celebrate other peoples’ cultures but not their own, that the cultural decline of whites is to be celebrated, etc.
These are a few that I can immediately think of. I’m sure you can add more.
Bay Area Guy, you are entitled to your opinion. However, I believe your assessment is inaccurate. Acts chapter 17:26-27 states that, He (Almighty God), made from one (common origin, one source, one blood), all nations of men to settle on the face of the earth, having definitiely determined their allotted periods of time and the fixed boundaries of their habitations (their settlements, lands, and abodes), So that they should seek God, in the hope that they might feel after Him and find Him, although He is not far from each of us. This tells me that we are a created being and that our Creator created culture, ethnicity, diversity, and race. We all were created in the image and likeness of Him (His Imperial Majesty): Jesus Christ!
you guys like to complain about stuff like this. multiculturalism isnt only for whites. Singapore is officially multicultural. its asian. bay area guy, are you one those BANA people?
What do you mean by BANA?
I’ve never heard of that before.

Generally speaking, it is the less successful races that benefit from multiculturalism. I pretty sure that Singapore does not get a net benefit from its black population:
C.L.E. African Restaurant in Sam Leong Road in Little India has become a gathering place in Singapore for Africans from Nigeria, Ghana, Liberia, Tanzania, Cameroon and South Africa.
But the coffee-shop stall’s popularity as a hang-out spot for Africans is also causing some unhappiness in the neighbourhood, as shopkeepers in the area complain of excessive noise, drunken behaviour, fights and crime.
A security supervisor at Mustafa Centre next door said he has seen African men harrass local and foreign women in the vicinity.
The Super Star Hotel on Desker Road, a short walk away, used to allow African tourists to settle their bills at the end of their stay.
But after a few left without paying, the hotel now asks for payment upfront every day before noon.
Matthew Okonkwu, 24, a Nigerian footballer who has been in Singapore for three weeks, recounted an instance when a woman pinched her nose and shot him a dirty look as they passed each other on the street. (the original source has been deleted; I had to get the text from Stormfront).
Good point, JAY.
Also, I think we need to clarify between multiculturalism and MULTIRACIALISM.
In an American and Western context, “multiculturalism” usually means multiracialism.
To be clear, I think that true multiculturalism (meaning the presence of different cultures and ideas) is indeed a boon.
But multiracialism? No.
Just look at Japan. They benefitted from Western technology and built a western style empire and today their technology benefits us, and yet they remain a homogenous country. I think that every country, even homogenous ones, are multicultural.
Multiracial countries are the problem.
BANA are the street-active White Nationalists in the Bay Area. i thought you might be one. also, the most economically productive places in the US are also the most ethnically diverse. NYC anybody? west virginia and plenty of states like Idaho and Wyoming and middle American states are nearly all-white. However where does the magic happen? on the coasts, where the diversity is. the white states are stale, monolithic, and stagnat economically, while diverse places like LA, Chicago (not too far from me btw), and NYC are bustling with activity
For argument’s sake, let’s assume you’ve got your facts right as far as which areas are “productive”. The most logical explanation would be that low-achieving groups are attracted to more productive places because that’s where the welfare benefits are, that’s where the standard of living is highest and it’s where the most juicy white victims are to be found.
But let’s take a closer look at your “productive ethnic diversity”. Nobody argues that the Asians and Semites start a lot of businesses and contribute to the community. Such productivity is not the result of “diversity”; it is the result of productive groups living there. But, when it comes to blacks and Hispanics, it can reasonably be argued that America’s large cities would be far better off if they had no blacks or Hispanics – after an adjustment period of course.
“Where does the magic happen?” What “magic” are you referring to? If you consider rapes and muggings “magic” then you are welcome to move to your diverse areas and enjoy it. In the meantime, the rest of us have the right to live among our own kind. The ultimate leftist goal is to deny us that right by making the entire world “diverse”.
JAY:”The most logical explanation would be that low-achieving groups are attracted to more productive places because that’s where the welfare benefits are, that’s where the standard of living is highest and it’s where the most juicy white victims are to be found.”
Yeah, New York City is 27.5% Hispanic and Philadelphia is 12.5%. You can’t tell me it’s because Latinos don’t want to pay twenty bucks for a train ticket.
AJ:
If CA was so “great” and “magic,” and ID so “stale, monolithic and stagnant,” why are so many whites fleeing the magic in CA for the stale stagnancy in ID?
I don’t judge a society based on how many shiny skyscrapers it has, or its GDP. I judge a society based on the standard of living that the average person can expect. I apply the same logic to states — Would you rather be an average person earning $30,000 a year in Los Angeles County or in Boise, Idaho? Where will your standard of living be higher?
I don’t live in the US, but let me have a try – is it possible that NYC is a productive place due to its geographical position, history, government investements etc.? Your argument that non-whites have somehow added to its wealth have no grounds. I think the minorities simply followed the money trail.
It’s mainly a matter of big money chasing big money. The tradeoff is that you have to have a lot of money to live decently. $30k a year is pauper money in Manhattan.
also, if HBD is right why does Eurasia suck? all those asian-ish/white-ish looking people in Chechnya, Kazakhstan, Afghanistan and all those countries between Europe and the far East should combine the genetic smarts of Asians with the innovation/inventiveness of whites to create highly advanced societies. but the mixed Eurasian peoples are dirt poor backwards. explain this.
Back to the coast thing again. Inland areas are always somewhat stagnant due to a lack of new ideas and a different mentality. Coastal areas with smart people are the best off and most recently, due to their prosperity, have suffered from migrant influxes. The amount of coastline in Western Europe may have to do with its intellectual performance (combined with IQ, of course). Apparently it has more coastline than Africa. Russia, being inland, is genetically very similar, but has always been more backwards. Partly cultural, as well, but it certainly has to do with a lack of interaction.
Of course there is a lot more to this than can be covered in this one response. But you should realize, AJ, that even though HBD is valid, it is not the only factor that determines the destiny of nations. The regions you mentioned were subject to brutal devastation at the hands of the Mongols and, in our time, at the hands of the Soviets. Bad government can counteract a lot of good genetics. Bad religion can also have this effect. The region you speak of is heavily Muslim.
Also bear in mind that not all Caucasians are equal and not all Mongoloids are equal. There are variances within those major groups.
Even though you disagree with most of us here, I do appreciate your participation.
Ethnic “diversity” has nothing to do with the most economically productive locales in the united States. Those places you are referencing (NYC, Chicago, Los Angeles, etc, ad nauseum), don’t really produce much. However, they have long been the transportation hubs through which products produced elsewhere have been shipped.
“Activity” is not production. In a similar fashion GDP is not a measure of an economy. So all that “Activity” taking place in the aforementioned cities, while necessary, should not be the focus.
Production is “where the magic happens.” Production is the best measure of the strength of an economy (See http://www.mises.org for details).
Having said that… Statists (both left and right) have been rushing headlong towards “multiculturalism” for years. The subjects of the us fedgov now accept the lie that diversity is strength.
The fact is… 300+ million wildly diverse residents simply cannot be effectively ruled by a single central government. A “Nation” is a group of people who share a common culture and identity. This is an impossibility in our current system.
Besides, “multiculturalism” is nothing more than a tool that serves the agenda of the centralizers. When the idea is no longer aligned with the goals of the political class, it will become passe.
By way of example: I am a “Confederate Southern American.” Which is to say: Libertarian, Paleoconservative, Anti-Federalist, and militant supporter of “consent of the governed,” as well as the idea that all government should be local, and the uS Constitution as a voluntary compact (see Article VII). Yet not one of the statist warmongering centralizers in the District of Criminals has announced their support for MY cultural group. 😉

I don’t know what you’d call America now. It’s certainly not a nation. A large economic region, perhaps. An empire? It’s a different beast altogether, and pretty much all of the world is turning into “economic regions,” like the EU. But they also regulated social life. The corporate state? Whatever they are, they are no longer nations. The nation-state is over the hill.
jewamongyou, I dont disagree with you guys oneverything. for example im sure i want alot of the same things you want politically.Despite me being an immigrant, i support the AZ immigration law, and actually think its not harsh enough. im against affirmative action, mass third world immigration (im not from the third world btw in case ur wondering), and anti-discrimination laws in the private sector. but im also an anti-racist and as someone whose jewish great-grandpa perished in the “Final Solution” im just weary of White Nationalism. stormfront is the largest white nationalist site, and they love Hitler over there. Nazism is a part of White Nationalism, and im no Nazi. oh and by the way I think racial seperatism is ridiculous. A diverse multiculural nation is possible, your living in one right now!
America, as great as she is, was far greater when she was 90% white.
Yes, there are Nazis among white nationalists. I am not ashamed to say that I share certain values with Nazis – as does just about anybody else. The fact that there are violent people, extremists and crazies who associate with a certain movement does not discredit the entire movement. Also, the fact that any kind of white advocacy is taboo causes many white advocates to attach themselves to groups such as Stormfront. In a sense, white nationalism is like alcohol during prohibition.
J.A.Y.:
Naziism is illegal in Germany. That’s why so many young people adopt the Nazi imagery, because it’s illegal. They’re only rebelling for its own sake.
If the German government wanted to get young people away from Naziism, they would require that young people read Nazi propaganda along with eating their broccoli.
You make an excellent point about “white nationalism.” The very term nationalist evokes images that don’t fit with my world view. So I’m a more than a little wary of nationalism, regardless of the prefix… with a caveat:
Within our current system, in which a blue-million different cultures, interests, and social blocks compete from K Street [along with business interests] for an annuity of taxpayer property. My instinctive reaction is a near-militant adoption of anarcho-capitalism in which there is no government with the power to take my property and redistribute it to the highest bidder.
HOWEVER, given a radically decentralized political environment, on in which there was no single, unitary political entity on the continent… and all polities were of reasonable size (about the size of a large county)… I may be willing to re-evaluate the idea of “nationalism” as it pertains to my chosen homeland.
As I believe in freedom of association without limits, and am not unfamiliar with human nature; I suspect it would require less than 10 years for “like to attract like.” And folks that were looking for home would settle in with the folks most like them.
Whether I ended up in Georgia (the land of my birth), Texas, Wyoming, or some other remote locale is irrelevant to me. As long as I can live in a land with people who share my culture and my faith.
A side-effect of this migration and coalescing into societies would be a willingness to trade and interact with folks who are now [almost] bitter enemies. Primarily [I suspect] because there is no forced subsidisation of behavior which is contrary to the tenets of our various belief systems.
Unfortunately, the path from here to there is fraught with danger, and the promise of much “upheaval” to put it mildly. SO… I am forced to work towards identifying the current nationalist government as nothing more than the result of a bloody usurpation of constitutional power, and thus… illegitimate, and of no force.
AJ:
Why do you take it at face value that Stormfront is “the largest WN site?” I guess what you do is log on to splcenter.org every day and believe everything you read on it. THEY’D love Stormfront to be the biggest deal in town.
It’s easy to “look” big on the internet.
But Stormfront could never hold an annual or bi-annual conference and get hundreds of people to show up to listen to erudite speakers, like AR does (when the Lenin-wing goonybirds aren’t threatening the hotels slated to hold AR conferences).
AJ writes, “oh and by the way I think racial seperatism is ridiculous.”
Just out of curiosity, how many blacks are in your family?
many white nationalists organize and network through stormfront. its rated as having way more visitors than amren by Alexa. amren is a tiny fringe movement thats not even acknowledged by the conservative movement.
fred- i honestly dont know, because i never met my father and most of my family. i know i have at least 1 half-white half-indian, (dot, not feather), but asides from that i dont exactly come from a close knit family. racial seperatism is ridiculous because no nation does it. Israel admits black jews, and no nation in Asia is just for Asians, theyre split up by ethnicity. can you name one successful racial Nationalist state in history?
All nations start out racially exclusive (at least the ones I know of). They are successful for a while. Then they become diverse – and they decline.
Wow, JAY, I think this is your most commented upon post!
And it certainly is not one of my best posts. Mediocre at best.
hey jew, so are for or agianst Ethiopian or other black jews immigrating to Israel? since your a white seperatist as well as a jew, do you want only white jews in Israel so its one race?
First read this:
http://jewamongyou.wordpress.com/2010/02/24/jewish-pedigree-and-racial-origins/
I am not convinced that those “black Jews” are truly Jews. Any black immigration to Israel should be discouraged – even if they turn out to be, technically, Jews. The reason is that they pose a danger to those around them and lower the quality of life. This has been the case all over the world. Why would it be any different in Israel? Let blacks remain in black countries.
I have absolutely no problem with Israel excluding certain groups and enforcing a strict immigration policy. Israel wants to be a Jewish state, and I have no problem with that. Jews in Israel have every right to preserve a Jewish state.
I only wish that pro-Israel groups in the U.S. such as the ADL were willing to extend that same courtesy to whites in western countries.
