Mivtzoyim update

In the end, I did not end up handing the leaflets to passersby.  If I could get somebody to accompany me, even if he doesn’t actually participate, then I might do so.   Instead I affixed them to utility poles that others had clearly been using for that purpose.  I don’t know if, technically, it is legal to do so but if it is a violation of some sort, then a lot of people are ignoring it.

In addition to the leaflets, I’ve put a large sign on the back of my car that reads “QUESTION DIVERSITY”.  I was inspired Countenance (see comment below).  I have it set up so that I can remove the sign on work days.  Hopefully, it will get some people thinking.

Ultimately, I’d like to have a collection of leaflets, each one highlighting a different “taboo” subject.  One could be about black/white rape statistics.  Others could have more libertarian messages.  I would set up a chair and small table and allow people to take them as they pass by.  The theme would be “taboo subjects are good for your mind” or something of that nature.

I’d like to point out that these activities, and this blog itself, were largely motivated by the interference, and sabotaging, of the last two American Renaissance conferences.  If the leftist power structure will not allow us to assemble peacefully and in private, then we must take our case to the streets.  It is the only logical course of action for us.

Wells Fargo goes 365black

I was visiting my local Wells Fargo branch and, as I was standing in line, I noticed the ubiquitous bald black man sitting behind his desk.  Every bank in America is required to have a bald black man among its staff.  Preferably, the bald black man should not be a mere teller; a teller is too humble.  The bald black man should be an actual banker – complete with his own filing cabinet and business cards.  The bald black man must be within the ages of 20 and 50 and he absolutely cannot have any hair on his head.  Each morning, as he arrives at work, his head is inspected for signs of hair.  If hair is found, there is another bald black man waiting to take his place behind the desk.  Furthermore, the bald black man cannot be a “light-skinned black” and I’m pretty sure there are minimum height requirements as well.
But this post is not really about bald black men in banks.  After all, it is not only banks that have the bald-black-man rule.  Where I work, we also have a bald black man engineer and, as far as most of us can tell, he does practically nothing; he gets paid to sit at his desk and be a bald black man.  What this post is about is what I noticed as I was leaving the bank:

Apparently Wells Fargo is not interested in marketing their mortgages to whites – or even Hispanics or Asians.  These were the only depictions of people in the entire entrance area.  Isn’t there some sort of law that says there must be at least one white face in every group?  Can’t we have some inclusiveness?

Getting in the spirit of "mivtsoyim"

There was a time, very long ago, when I was involved (by default) with the “Chabad” (AKA “Lubavitcher”) sect of Hassidic Judaism.  I was very young and seeking my roots.  Chabad was the only form of Judaism around, so I connected with them.  I never internalized their philosophies or their habits and, as soon as I could, I rejected their movement as unsuitable for me and more worthy of the name “cult” than “sect”.
But Lubavitch does have some positive points and one of them is their very aggressive outreach program.  They use the term “mivtzoyim*” to describe the obligatory practice of two or more men hitting the streets, or businesses, in order to bring estranged Jews back into the fold.  Activities include handing out brochures, talking to people, inviting people to services or classes and facilitating the fulfillment of various commandments.  In those days, though I was very shy, I also participated in these activities.
Now I find myself with a stack of Unamused’s leaflets and many thousands of brainwashed whites who need to be exposed to reality.  I have no illusions; out of hundreds of people, perhaps one will actually read the leaflet.  But this scenario was dealt with, by the Lubavitchers, with an analogy:  If a person is deathly ill and cannot even swallow on his own, we pour medicine into his mouth in the hope that a few drops will make it in and cure him.  Later in life I heard a similar analogy regarding sales:  “It’s like throwing shit against the wall.  Some of it’s going to stick.”  I’m fairly certain I didn’t hear that last one from the Lubavitcher Rebbe, even though I saw him many times.
I am still shy and it goes against my nature to go out in public to do something unpopular but I am distributing them regardless.  It looks like handing them out in person to passersby is the most practical way to do this.
Here is the PDF of the leaflet I am using:

More murky reasoning from the Portland Mercury

I recently posted about the Portland government’s efforts to find discrimination against blacks and Hispanics.  Now housing commissioner Nick Fish has released the names of some of the “suspects”.  It should be no surprise that the MSM is not bothered by the fact that such witch-hunts inevitably lead to anti-white discrimination.  For the benefit of those less informed, I’ll explain it:  If you are unkind to a white person, you won’t get his business.  If you are unkind to a “person of color”, you might get busted for “discrimination” and have your life ruined.  These are the two types of citizens in today’s America, white and “people of color” and you’d better treat the latter with great deference.  It does not take a university degree to figure out that this policy will lead to worse treatment toward whites overall.
In a recent issue, The Portland Mercury berated the hopelessly anti-white media, including itself,  for taking too long to report the details of this investigation:

The paper patted itself on the back by noting Fish’s letter “came four days after an article in the Oregonian detailed how the city had no concrete plans to enforce the law against the landlords and hadn’t even notified them they’d been tested.” A column by Anna Griffin complained that Fish had “screwed up” by also asking a committee, already exploring housing discrimination in Portland as part of the renewal process for federal housing grants, to review the findings.
Advocates and other housing insiders, interestingly, all noticed what the paper didn’t mention in its cries for action: That it had been asleep at the wheel—along with every other news outlet in town, including the Mercury. The Oregonian‘s first story on the audit didn’t hit print until nearly three weeks after Fish’s office announced the results, way back on April 20.

It seems that being anti-white is not good enough; the newspapers must be quicker and more vicious in their condemnation of whites.  Perhaps daily calls for internment camps and mass shootings of whites would make the Mercury happy.
I found it interesting that, according to the Mercury, a majority of housing discrimination cases do not even relate to race at all:

Of all the statewide complaints, more than half (164) involve someone with a disability. That’s almost twice the combined total of cases involving race (48) and ethnicity (37).

This being the case, why is all the focus on racial discrimination?  A search of the Oregonian’s website yields practically no stories about housing discrimination based on disability; all of the stories revolve around blacks and Hispanics.  The Mercury also seems to lack any stories about disability discrimination in housing.  The answer, of course, is that race overrides all other priorities among leftists.  More specifically, the promotion of blacks.  The editors of the Mercury, being typical leftists, reveal this priority both explicitly and subliminally.  Here is a screenshot of the page I quoted above:

It is no coincidence that all the “real guys” are black and that the woman is white.  In the mind of liberals, blacks are still slaves and white women are still the daughters of slave owners.  They believe that by showing them together, thus encouraging the mating of the two, they are courageous revolutionaries who seek to overthrow an oppressive status-quo.
But we come full circle here, for the ultimate goal in the establishment, and enforcement of, housing discrimination laws is to ensure that white women will breed with black men.  This is why so little attention is paid to disability discrimination.  If able-bodied whites mate with disabled whites, the offspring are still white – and nothing is accomplished.  We can now also understand why the MSM is not bothered by the ramifications of the caste system they promote; they actively seek second-class status for whites.  Since, according to the Left, whites are racist and evil, and have been so since time immemorial, it believes there is only one solution – The Final Solution.

A milestone for this blog

Everybody enjoys the approval of those they admire.  So it is a great pleasure for me to report that Steve Sailer has added this blog to his links.
I have often found, after I had published a post, that Steve Sailer had written more or less the same thing and had beaten me to it.  Of course, had I known about it in advance, I would have cited him and, in a perfect world, I would have already read all his works (and the works of other great writers) before publishing anything of my own.  On the other hand, there is something to be said for reaching the same conclusions independently.  This is one of the traits that distinguish us from the leftists – who follow the dictates of the thought police uncritically.
In any event, thank you Steve!

Who is a "Cherokee"?

According to “Cherokee Nation Facts“, in order to be considered a member of the Cherokee tribe, all one needs is a single Indian ancestor who was listed as such in the 1906 census:

FACT: The Cherokee Nation requires no blood quantum.  To be considered a Cherokee citizen, you need one Indian ancestor listed on the 1906 federal census of our people, known as the Dawes Rolls.  With that one Indian ancestor, a person is part of our Cherokee family regardless of what other heritage he or she might have.

It is an interesting concept, this Cherokee variant of the “one-drop” rule.  They explain their rational as follows:

The United States government, through its courts, has held time and again that Indian tribes have the right to determine their own citizenship. Today, Cherokee Nation’s citizenry is bound together by having in common at least one documented Indian ancestor, regardless of what other heritage they may have. Cherokee Nation citizenship is based upon family ties, not color.

The Cherokee people have spoken three times on this issue in public, democratic elections, each time voting to identify and define ourselves as an Indian tribe composed of Indian people. U.S. courts have consistently agreed and supported this concept of self-determination. Tribes determine tribal citizenship, not Congress and not treaties.

While it is hard to argue that the tribe, and only the tribe, has the right to define itself, one could certainly question the wisdom of this decision.  According to this criterion, given enough time, practically every human on Earth could be “Cherokee”.  Also, while I do not know any Cherokee personally, I strongly suspect that many of them object to the above definition.  But, given the power structure of “federally recognized tribes” those Cherokee lack a voice in the matter.

When we say “the tribe… has the right to define itself”, we need to clarify who is considered “the tribe”.  In the case of the Jewish tribe, for example, I do not think it would be fair for artificial Jews (I.E. converts) to have a voice in who is considered fully Jewish.  I realize that this position is considered archaic and few of my fellow Jews would agree with me – but the ultimate authority, on membership to a tribe, must rest with those who are unquestionably, and the most pure, members of that tribe.  Otherwise, “definition creep” will set in and the criteria for who is a member will inevitably become more and more lenient as ever more marginal “members” gain numbers and clout within the group.  This is what’s happening with immigration into Western countries; the immigrants are increasingly running the show.

I am certain that some Cherokee are racially conscious and object to the watering down of their people.  There was a dispute, a while back, concerning the “freedmen“:

Cherokee Chief Calls for Removal of the Cherokee
Freedmen from Tribal Membership Status
On Monday, March 13, 2006 at the regular tribal council meeting, Principal Chief Chad Smith of the Cherokee nation of Oklahoma called for the tribal council to propose and approve a constitutional amendment which would be placed on the ballot at the next Cherokee general election to allow the Cherokee voters to strip the Cherokee Freedmen from their status as tribal citizens. The Cherokee Freedmen are descendants of freed slaves and free mixed African Cherokee peoples who received Cherokee citizenship in 1866 based on a treaty with the US government and based on amendments to the 1839 Constitution.

Though some Cherokee wish to ensure that their people survive, “Cherokee Nation Facts” attempts to present a monolithic facade to the general public.  Regarding “freedmen”, they write:

MYTH: The Cherokee Nation is expelling all the descendants of their former slaves.

FACT: There are more than 1,500 descendants of former slaves who are Cherokee citizens today because they can find an Indian ancestor listed on the Dawes Rolls.  The Cherokee Nation is offering free genealogical expertise to assist any descendant of Freedmen who wants to research whether they can find such an Indian ancestor and thus become a permanent citizen.  That said, slavery was a grave injustice and a painful chapter in our nation’s history, when 2% of Cherokees owned slaves.  It should be noted, however, that the Cherokee Nation voluntarily freed these slaves in 1863.

Just as the  Jewish people cannot survive, in any meaningful way, if we interbreed freely with blacks (with any non-Jews, but especially blacks), so too will interbreeding with blacks accelerate the demise of the Cherokee people.  Black identity, being constantly bolstered by the powers that be, is too strong.  Black features are too dominant and black culture is promoted too much to coexist with a people few in number without erasing the smaller tribe.

Here is the image of the Cherokee nation that “Cherokee Nation Facts” wishes to project to the world:

We can see that, contrary to the claims of some people, it is not only whites who are victims of “multiculturalism”.  While it is undeniable that Native Americans have more than their share of issues, it would be beneficial to all parties if conscientious Native Americans joined forces with conscientious whites in the common cause of pan-nationalism.

Time to build a better America

The Columbian published an editorial last Sunday (May 29th) titled “Time to build a better America”.  Predicting doom and gloom if America does not upgrade its crumbling infrastructure, Ann McFeatters argues that our nation will lose its edge in the future.  She writes:

America’s crumbling, outmoded infrastructure has become one of those political discussions that make eyes glaze over and knuckles turn white with boredom.  But it will prove as vital as America’s dependence on foreign oil in its potential to doom our economic superiority.

The results are everywhere.  Spring rains after winter’s storms create enormous potholes.  Devastating floods and droughts are catastrophic.  Traffic jams reduce productivity by millions of hours…

At first blush, it is difficult to argue with her.  Obviously, if we are going to have an infrastructure at all, it needs to be maintained and upgraded periodically.  She rightly points out that the United States has spent money on war, defense and entitlements that is should have spent on its basic needs.  But, instead of urging for cuts in bloated, unconstitutional, spending, she argues that what we need is – more spending…

If we do not act, which looks likely because of the determination in Washington to cut spending – Congress consistently refuses to pas a surface transportation planning act, this is what will happen:

Americans will spend an ever-greater portion of their incomes on services such as tap water, some of which will be undrinkable.  There will be new tolls on highway driving…

Some cash-strapped cities will simply stop providing basic services, letting private companies take them over.  Road maintenance in rural areas will become problematic…

The doomsday scenario she describes sounds a lot like a third-world nation in the making.  But perhaps the most important contributor to the problem is mentioned in the last paragraph.  Well… she doesn’t actually come out and say it, but she does conclude by admitting this:

In 30 years, there will be almost 100 million more people living in the United States, but the infrastructure will not support 400 million Americans.

Gosh, where do all those people come from?  It could be that she actually spelled it out in her original draft – but the Columbian’s editors PC’ed it down in order to avoid offending anybody.  The problem is immigration.  If not for post-1965 immigrants and their children, it is very likely that the measures she calls for would be very affordable.

But there is another elephant in the room and this one she could never write about – because she is almost certainly ignorant about it:  In a series of detailed articles, Hunter Wallace has spelled out, in Occidental Dissent, the tremendous costs of both welfare (including EBT) and crime.  Both represent enormous transfers of wealth from (mostly) white taxpayers to the parasitic black and Hispanic underclass.  Wallace points out that, were these expenses to be eliminated, the savings would be more than enough to send astronauts to Mars.  Repairing and updating our infrastructure would be a minor expense compared to the costs of black/Hispanic welfare and crime.  I would venture to say that “Affirmative Action” and “ESL” programs each cost as much, or more, than such updates would cost.  Obviously, Wallace is much better at numbers than I am so I’ll leave the crunching to him.

Great video from YouTube

I was going to post something that required effort to write – but then I accidentally clicked on Amren and found this YouTube video (and I’m tired from a long day at work):

It speaks for itself really.

Mind the packaging!

Marketing people generally know what they are doing.  Companies spend millions of dollars finding out what sort of packaging sells products.  They know what shape, size, color and smell to package their products in and they know, generally speaking, what attracts customers and what repels them.
Bloggers have the roles of both manufacturer and marketer.  Even when we are merely parroting what others have already said, we are still trying to “sell” the ideas.  Otherwise, we wouldn’t be publishing them.  When our ideas are packaged wrong – when they are presented in bad English – it is annoying.  It is annoying that some of my fellow pro-white bloggers are presenting ideas to the public (ideas that I generally agree with) and making them look cheap through sloppy writing.
While I do not claim perfection in this regard, at least I make a serious effort.  For the benefit of my fellow bloggers, here are some tools y’all should avail yourselves of:
1) Spell check.  Even if your blogging program lacks this tool, you can still copy your post into a word-processing program and have it do the spell-check.  Do not rely solely on the spell-check program; a word may be spelled correctly but, at the same time, it may be the wrong word.
2) Dictionary.com.  If you’re not sure which word to use, or if you’re not sure if the word you want to use is appropriate, look it up on dictionary.com.  It is free, it is quick and it also includes a handy thesaurus.
3) Theoatmeal.com.  This is just one of many sources that can help you harness the power of the semicolon without abusing it.
4) Google.com.  If you’re not sure how to use a particular expression, look it up on google to see how others are using it.  This will give you a pretty good idea if your use is commonly acceptable.
5) Youngwritersonline.net.  Here you can gain further knowledge – such as distinguishing between two similar, but different, words (which is what I linked to here).
Some of my pet peeves (and yes, sometimes I do them myself) are as follows:
1) Improper use of “there”, “their” and “they’re” and improper use of “your” and “you’re”.  It doesn’t matter much if you’re texting a friend on your phone, but there are many people who want their sources to be written well when they’re reading serious subjects.
2) Missing and extra words.  This has become more and more common, even within MSM publications.  The fact that you know what you are trying to say does not absolve you of including all necessary words or eliminating extra words.  How do you avoid this pitfall?  Proofread!  Proofread your post two or three times before publishing it.  Proofread it slowly, word by word.  How do extra words end up in a text?  My experience is that it happens when I edit a sentence but fail to go back and make sure all associated words and sentences still make sense after the correction.  It’s the same for missing words.
3) Extra apostrophes.  Somebody once called me an “apostrophe nazi”.  So be it, but an apostrophe is there for a reason.  It either indicates a missing letter, tells us that a word is possessive or is used in certain plural forms (such as 1990’s).  If you’re not certain whether you should use “its” or “it’s”, then ask yourself whether the sentence still makes sense if you substituted the apostrophe for the word “is” or “has”.  For example, “it’s a fine day today” would still make sense if I wrote “it is a fine day today” because the apostrophe is in place of the letter i in the word “is”.  What about “it’s head is covered with hair”.  This is incorrect because it would not make sense to say “it is head is covered with hair”.
There are some things I struggle with.  If “a people” (as in “a nation, ethnicity or population”) is singular, then isn’t it correct to say “the people is a traditional one”?  Is “ethics” singular or plural?  According to dictionary.com, it can take either a singular or a plural verb.  It’s hard to know which is more appropriate in some cases.  Under what circumstances should we capitalize the word “God”?  This has been a great source of confusion for me as I translate “The Ashkenazi Revolution”.

European diversity

A commenter named Flavia posted a link, within her comment of my previous post, to a video of a Jewish woman Barbara Specter who claims that Europe must become “multicultural” in order to survive and that it cannot be the “monolithic” society it was in the last century.  The video is painful to watch, much as it is painful to watch a retarded person give a speech in front a large audience.  Specter’s ignorance is breathtaking* and it is difficult to know where to start.  Many would say that there is no use debating fools, but I did want to debunk a common misconception that Specter parrots:  That Europeans lacked diversity prior to the massive influx of non-Europeans.
One way to measure diversity, and by extension, “multiculturalism”, is by looking at dialects.  Here is a map of Italy showing dialects of Italian, some of them considered separate languages by some linguists:

The associated Wikipedia article states:

 The TV’s widespread adoption as a popular household appliance in Italy was the main factor in helping all Italians learn the common national language regardless of class or education level. At roughly the same time, many southerners moved to the north to find jobs. The powerful trade unions successfully campaigned against the use of dialects to maintain unity among the workers. This allowed the southerners, whose “dialects” were not mutually intelligible with the northerners’, to assimilate by using Standard Italian. The large number of mixed marriages, especially in large industrial cities such as Milan and Turin, resulted in a generation that could speak only Standard Italian, and usually only partly understand the “dialects” of their parents.
As a result of these phenomena, dialects in Italy remain in use mostly where less immigration occurred; that is, in the South, North-Eastern Italy, in rural areas (where there has been less ethnic blending and influence from trade unions), and among older speakers. Being unable to speak Standard Italian still carries a stigma as it presents a barrier to writing official documents, performing business, or carrying out any kind of legal transaction (all of which use Standard Italian as the dominant language). Even strongly pro-dialect political forces such as the Northern League rarely resort to anything else than Standard Italian to write or speak publicly.

Similar maps exist for the other political nations of Europe, most of which were very recently formed.  The fate of dialects outside of Italy is similar to that of Italian dialects.  Intermarriage and television have the same effect on regional dialects practically everywhere.  The mass immigration that Specter advocates will erase Europe’s traditional diversity and replace it with a much more dangerous diversity – based on race and religion.
With the exception of French, regional dialects have prevailed until very recent times.  Anybody who is familiar with European culture and history should realize that Europe is a very diverse place.  The rise of cities brought various regional cultures into contact with each other for centuries.  If this is not “multiculturalism”, it is hard to say what is.
What Specter claims is, strictly speaking, true.  If we were to erase regional differences within Europe, “Europe” as we know it would indeed cease to exist.  But this is not the type of “multicultural society” Specter is speaking of.  What she wants is for ethnic Europeans, in all their varieties, to become minorities in their own ancestral lands.  The “multicultural society” she envisions will be dominated by Africans and Asians.  If Europeans fought bloody wars over the relatively minor differences between them, we can expect even greater bloodshed in the future thanks to non-white immigration.  When the ethnic differences are more visible, then conflict is even more likely.
To hear Specter talk, we would think she is overly concerned with the long-term welfare of Europe.  Her claim is that the Jewish role in advancing “multiculturalism” (I.E. diluting the native populations with non-Europeans) is for Europe’s own good.  But what is the “Europe” of which she speaks?  If she is referring of the continent of Europe, it is difficult to see how a lack of immigration could cause it to dissolve into the sea.  Perhaps she is referring to the economic entity now known as “Europe”.  If so, we should ask her to explain how an economic unit can change hands and still be accurately described as belonging to the original owners.  If my bank account is taken over by another individual, would it be any comfort to me to know that “Jewamongyou’s account” still exists?  Would I rejoice if, under these circumstances, it is growing?  Would I take comfort in the fact that it is still called “Jewamongyou’s account” even though it is, by any measure, no longer mine?  She should certainly be asked what she means by “Europe”.  I am certain that we will never get a good answer.
It is clear to me that this women, and those who support her, do not have the best interests of Europe in mind; if the policies they favor were good for Europe, then they would  advocate the same policies for Israel.  Their fake good intentions should fool nobody.
* Here I am giving her the benefit of the doubt and assuming she is, in fact, ignorant.
