I will again explain that women, and a shocking number of men, are simply unable to grasp how much violence is necessary to maintain civilization, much less establish it.
Most "liberal" societies simply hide that violence as much as possible but yes, ALL civilization rests on a foundation of violence. The worse the people, the more violence is required keep them civilized.
What differentiates the violence of civilization from the violence of natural savagery? It produces something good, i.e., it is justified by what it produces.
This is what so many, especially on the left, don't understand. They lament that society requires violence but they blind themselves to the fact that this actually produces something worthwhile. They stop their analysis at a superficial level.

I’m going to say something controversial…many of these young women have lived soft lives. They bemoan past traumas, are humourless nihilists. They are coddled girl bosses.
But one violent incident, with some pain changes their entire world view. They’re all just mouthy little drunks at the bar till then.

EXC: A Washington think tank whose immigration program receives Soros funding has identified hundreds of American counties as destinations for migrants. 96.5% of selected counties are majority White .
Residents would have no say.
Its November 2025 immigration blueprint urges policymakers to “enable local governments and private entities to sponsor immigrants directly.” It also proposes state visa programs and “incentivizing new arrivals to stay in specific states and regions.”
Two weeks later, Niskanen published its Migration Match Index, assessing American communities for their capacity to accommodate more immigration.
The report describes places with “aging, stagnant, or insufficient native labor supply.” It weighs factors including job openings, rental vacancies, affordability, unemployment, and age.
The authors explicitly discuss using updated data to plan resettlement following “an influx of asylum seekers at the border.” They also contemplate applications to a future refugee-admissions system.
Niskanen’s own funding disclosure lists $300,000 from Open Society Foundation for immigration work, covering the period when both documents were published. Other donors include the Rockefeller Family Fund and the Pritzker Family Foundation.
The organization already has a record of helping turn private sponsorship into policy.
Its 2025 annual report says it “helped conceive and implement” Welcome Corps, the private refugee-sponsorship program established under Biden.

Just to say a bit more about this, it’s just like, other ethnic groups literally organize as ethnic groups. They create ethnic affinity organizations to advance their interests as such. The position that they should be allowed to do this, but you shouldn’t, is really just the position that they are uniquely bullied by oppressive white people, which at this late stage of multiculturalism is starting to border on blood libel.
You cannot at this point honestly hold the position that white people are uniquely awful and so every other ethnic group is permitted to organize in opposition to them. And if you do hold this position, you’re agreeing implicitly to the critique that there are people who come here and continue to think of themselves and their goals and interests explicitly in terms of being different from everybody else.
This is all untenable.
The idea that you can make all of these considerations go away just by telling white people that it’s disgusting to notice any of it is totally absurd. This isn’t the stuff of racist fever dreams. It’s a real dynamic. And it’s totally legitimate to talk about it.

It's funny hearing people talk about race science as a "pseudoscience" and then cite that humans share 99.9% of DNA.
We also share about 50% of our DNA with a banana and 98.8% with chimpanzees. Why? Because we are all eukaryotic organisms and most DNA is very old biological machinery that is responsible for the functions of life (copying DNA, making RNA, building proteins, generating and using energy, dividing cells and repairing damage, regulating metabolism, etc). We share that in common with all eukaryotic life.
But the human genome is enormous. Over 3 billion base pairs. Even a small percentage difference still represents millions of base pairs. Further, where those differences occur matters a great deal more than simply counting them. If some of those DNA differences result in instructions that say something like "develop this tissue in this way, at this stage, for this long", you can end up with resulting organisms that are dramatically different.
So it's not really about "percentage difference" when talking about genetic difference. A big part of the discussion must be about what genes switch on, where and how strongly they switch on, how long they stay on, what types of cells are expressing that, and at what developmental stage they are expressed.
Consider embryonic development. A single, small, regulatory alteration early in fetal development could produce a cascade of downstream consequences. If something were to, say, alter how neural progenitor cells proliferate during fetal development, you would not need thousands of new "brain genes" to produce a substantially different type of brain. You just need one single gene that changes the genetic instructions that govern how an organism develops.
So yes, humans are 99.9% genetically identical to each other in the ordinary single-nucleotide sense, but the remaining variation contributes to real and sometimes stark differences in physiology, appearance, temperament, etc. Even a tiny fraction of a percent has a lot of wiggle room and what can be done in that wiggle room is substantial.
Next time you see someone parroting the line that race doesn't exist because we are 99.9% genetically the same, you will know that person doesn't know shit about genetics and is just repeating a talking point they heard from someone else who doesn't know shit about genetics. They are not qualified to be part of the conversation.

Imagine it's June 30, 1776
You pace back and forth in your study, reciting your case AGAINST independence. Today would be the last ‘normal’ day in the colonies.
Tomorrow, the great debate that would end in the colonies declaring independence would begin.
Scorched earth is the only path forward
I'm going to elaborate on this, why this decision is structurally catastrophic, and why absolutely extreme hostility to all foreigners is a justified response until this can be resolved.
First on the relationship between the people and the state, all governments share a singular purpose which is to be a collective decision making body for a particular people.
It does not matter what form the state takes, this is its raison d'être. And being a collective decision making body for a particular people, the state exists to advance the interests of that people. In other words, the state has a fiduciary duty to advance the interests of the people it was constructed to represent.
In fact, good governance is synonymous with this. A state that advances the interests of its people is considered good. A state that fails to do this is considered bad. A state that actively works against the interests of the people it was designed to represent is considered a tyranny and is justifiably overthrown by force.
But for our purposes the important thing here is that relationship between the people and the state. The state exists to serve the interests of specifically the people for whom it was constructed and no others, for that is the reason it was created in the first place.
And that people is clearly defined from the moment of the state's construction because the state has binding authority only over those people who are represented in it. In other words, when you create "The American Government" to rule over "The American People" it is necessarily the case that there is some understanding as to who those American People actually are.
That a foreigner in our country might be temporarily subject to our laws (i.e. a Mexican citizen is not allowed to murder) the state does not have any obligation or duty to that foreigner, nor is he subject to all the rules we uphold for ourselves (i.e. registration for Selective Service).
In a Democratic System in particular, where the citizens of the nation nominally have sovereign power in that they get to choose the particular individuals who will represent their interests, the importance of this fiduciary relationship between the state and its citizens is even more critical because if the state is not capable of accurately answering the question of "who are the citizens to whom I maintain a fiduciary duty" then it is possible for foreigners to effectively steal the sovereignty of the people, and co-opt the state for alien interests.
If that is allowed to take place, then the system no longer is capable of fulfilling its raison d'être, as it becomes aligned away from the interests of the people for whom it was constructed.
Further, the system can be actively, maliciously subverted in this manner where political representatives may experience a perverse incentive to actively betray their fiduciary duty to the citizenry where that citizenry might otherwise remove them from power.
In other words, if a politician is unpopular with the people, either individually or because a wider platform he endorses lacks popular support, he can undermine the sovereign decision making of the people by appealing to a foreign electorate that will keep him in power.
The relationship between the people and the Democratic form of the state can therefore be subverted. It is supposed to be the case that the people determine who will represent them, but if foreigners are allowed to dilute the sovereign voice of the people with their inclusion (which itself always violates the state's fiduciary duty to its citizens because of said dilution) then it becomes possible for the state to simply select a new electorate to represent.
This completely severs and inverts the intended relationship between the people and the state. Far from being a check on tyranny it manifests as the ultimate tyranny because the system, in selecting a new electorate, deprives the original electorate of its collective decision making body, effectively rendering the nation stateless, while simultaneously subjecting them to a kind of colonial rule, where they are governed by explicitly foreign interests.
Being a stateless nation is a catastrophe for any people subjected to it. Whether it's the Kurds, or the Tibetans, or the Chechens, lacking a state is synonymous with lacking the sovereign capability to decide one's own future.
It is in effect the enslavement of the nation, as your nation becomes subjugated to the interests of the foreign state that governs on your behalf. You are not free to decide for yourselves. You are subjected to decision made on your behalf. Rarely, if ever, are those decisions going to be to your benefit.
The dilution of citizenship in a Democratic System in particular is therefore one of the most egregious catastrophes that can befall a people, and to the extent that the state actively facilitates or endorses this outcome, it is the single greatest betrayal of the state's fiduciary duty to its people possible. It is a total inversion of the state's intended function. Comparable to the liquidation of the nation itself.
And that is why this Birthright ruling is such a disaster. What the Supreme Court has in effect ruled is that the United States Government, the State, is explicitly forbidden from accurately recognizing the particular people to whom it is responsible, for whom it exists and acts, and who is allowed to wield sovereign power with respect to by whom the state is constituted.
Or more simply, the upholding of Birthright Citizenship in all cases prevents the state from remaining aligned to the people for whom it was constructed.
It's been commented on ad nauseam but to highlight some of the utterly preposterous scenarios enabled by this decision:
> An illegal alien who breaks into our country in direct violation of our laws and without our consent who has a child here has a child that the state must recognize as the person whose interests it must uphold.
> A member of a hostile nation (i.e. China) can enter the country, have a child, return to their country, and raise an overtly hostile subversive agents who will be recognized as a legitimate representative or leader for our people, and this is someone whose interests the state must attend to.
These are egregious dilutions of American sovereignty by way of dilution of the American electorate, both in a naked betrayal of the state's fiduciary duty to us, and in such a manner as to facilitate the gradual realignment of the state away from the people it was intended to represent and into the control of explicitly alien interests that are almost universally predatory towards the actual American people.
Now as for what recourse the American people and actual patriots have, our options are not great. We could remedy this by constitutional amendment, but there is no conceivable universe where this will be possible because this co-opting of the state is already fairly advanced. The state is already in a state of profound dysfunction, and it already fails to correctly align to the American people. We cannot even pass the very popular "don't steal our elections" bill and so the idea that we could amend the constitution in this state is frankly asinine. It won't happen.
So without the ability to directly eliminate the root error in this decision, we instead have to pivot towards preventing as much dilution of the American electorate as possible.
In other words, to prevent the loss of American Sovereignty it is now necessary to create a maximally hostile environment to all foreigners at all times.
This means absolutely radical measures both can and should be taken and weaponized as a bargaining chip to force concession on a constitutional amendment to fix this issue.
This can, in my opinion, include the following:
> Issue no additional visas of any kind. No tourist visas. No work visas. No student visas. Nothing. Total foreigner moratorium at all levels. No exceptions for anyone anywhere.
> Terminate or do not renew any existing visas. H1B? Not getting renewed. Period. Under any circumstances.
> Mass deportations of all illegal aliens. Complete ruthlessness. Use the military to root them out. Whatever it takes. Scorched Earth.
> Militarize the Southern Border. Post the army there. Treat every person crossing the border outside an official crossing point as an invader and a threat to our national sovereignty (because they are). Don't bother with deportations. Shoot anyone who tries to cross.
I am not trying to be hyperbolic, I mean that. This is an existential question and it must be treated with extreme severity. It will nuke industries like Tourism but so be it.
Then the carrot you offer is that if an Amendment revising this travesty is passed, we can immediately ease up on the above as sovereignty is secured.
This ruling necessitates an extreme response because it is by its nature an overt threat to the continuity of the American People and their relationship to the state.
And if the state is too far gone, and the realignment away from the American people is already a fait accompli, then the American people are completely justified to reject the state's authority, its legitimacy, and to construct a new governing institution that will reflect their sovereignty.

One time I went to a local coffee shop where of course half the staff was some kind of gender creature, I go up to the counter and the staff persyn is some tiny little FTM with a whispy HRT beard and wide hips named Asher or one of those brooding cool guy names they always pick, anyway I order my drink and she went off to make it and had to grab something from a high shelf, but she was small so she couldn't reach it, so to she stands on her tippy-toes, reaches up with her little arms and starts doing the girliest little hop and grunt combo trying to grab the thing, I'm sure you can picture what this looks like, after a few hop and grunts she turns and does the look every man recognizes, the flustered "I need help from a man with height or muscles or both" look, one of the guys (??) comes over and grabs the thing for her, she does the little hands-clasped-over-heart-and-tiny-squat thing girl do when they want to say thanks, it was one of the most feminine things I've ever seen... anyway this is what I imagine whenever I see one of these HRT girls, that little hop-and-grunt combo with her tiny hairy little arms reaching into the air

Harvard political scientist Robert Putnam studied diversity and came to conclusions that surprised him: “Diversity seems to trigger not in-group/out-group division, but anomie or social isolation. In colloquial language, people living in ethnically diverse settings appear to ‘hunker down’ – that is, to pull in like a turtle.” Putnam’s research shows that in diverse “communities” people become less trustful even of members of their own group. Distrust, isolation, and a general hardening and callousness toward others increases.
In short, sentiments such as sympathy, the very basis of morality, weaken and atrophy the more “diverse” society becomes. The only alternative for those who advocate multiculturalism (or who perceive it as in their interests) is to lecture us all with abstract moral principles about the necessity of coming together and cooperating (while simultaneously, of course, proclaiming that which divides us as our greatest strength). But this approach presupposes that morality is a matter of following abstract rules. The truth, however, is that in moral judgment sentiments come first, and “reasons” follow. Unable to rely upon sentiments-based morality to bind people together in multicultural societies and make them behave, governments have to resort more and more to surveillance and policing. It is difficult to see how such societies are sustainable, and impossible to see how they are desirable.

The UK needs a solution more radical and society-altering than the Bolshevik takeover or the Nuremberg trials: one that will serve as the foundation of a new state for the next millennium and root itself so firmly in the national psyche that such a betrayal can never occur again.
