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.

I’m increasingly of the belief that the creators of children’s literature in the distant past had a much higher opinion (and higher expectations) of their audience than many of those in modern times.

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.

If you talk to any old priest who's actually been in the game forty years they're like yes the devil is real and he prefers intelligent people, don't pray when you're angry it opens the wrong door, some saints were terrifying in person and not in a good way, certain prayers work at certain times of night and we don't know why, and never let a possessed person know you're afraid

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.

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.

After 7 decades of "civil rights" activism, we have a huge black population that believes murder ought to be legal if against a white person.
Black students ought to pretend to be white on college applications, since we are said to live in a "white supremacist" society. Strangely, they do not.
That's because the truth is this: white people, in the 7 decades since the civil rights movement, crippled their own children with preferential policies that favored much less qualified black applicants in schooling and employment.
Any qualification that blacks couldn't meet at the same rate as whites had to be thrown out (or you bankrupt yourself in court by trying to show, with a team of vulture lawyers after you, that the requirement was absolutely necessary).
Countless jurisdictions have had to throw out entry exams entirely after no amount of dumbing them down could get enough black students to pass them.
The campaign against "gifted and talented" programs, meanwhile, has been driven partly by the "disparate impact" doctrine.
You've heard some of the news items. Seattle phased out its "highly capable cohort" (separate accelerated classes/schools) starting around 2021-2022, and aimed for full phase-out by 2027-2028 (with some delays). The rationale? Addressing "historical inequity" and overrepresentation of white and Asian students.
Your student can't have those programs because we've decided there are too many people in them who look like him.
Rockville Centre, New York, has long moved away from gifted tracking toward mixed-ability classes. San Francisco Unified delayed Algebra I and eliminated honors/gifted math tracks for "equity" purposes. We could go on and on.
Even though some of America's most politically "progressive" people are in education, and despite repeated and aggressive (and expensive) efforts across the country, no school district anywhere in America, no matter how progressive, has ever managed to eliminate the black-white educational achievement gap, which by 12th grade is estimated as a four-year difference.
And vastly fewer black students percentage-wise choose to take advanced-placement classes even in school systems in which such classes are open to anyone.
Given that nobody anywhere has been able to solve this problem, why, apart from hatred and spite, should bright students be singled out to be deprived of a program that benefits them?
The disparities are evident even at the very beginning of the educational process. The National Center for Educational Statistics found that blacks entering kindergarten we're already disproportionately testing in the bottom, quarter of students in reading, math, and general knowledge.
Behavioral differences are also evident that early, and they persist to the future. On average, black students are much less likely than whites to be described by kindergarten teachers as a tentative, eager to learn, and persistent in carrying out assigned tasks, and they are more likely to be described as argumentative, quick tempered, and violent.
These discipline disparities persist over time. Later in life blacks are 2 1/2 times as likely to be suspended or expelled from school as whites.
Faced with statistics, like these, so-called civil rights groups, typically accuse white teachers of arbitrarily, singling out blacks for punishment. To the contrary, black teachers have been found to be even more critical of black students than white teachers are.
Moreover, Asian students are less than half as likely as whites to be suspended or expelled, and it is unreasonable to ask us to believe that an anti-white, pro-Asian bias permeates the American educational system.
And educational disparities between the races persist even when social class is taken into account, so that comfortable explanation doesn't work.
The crime statistics tell us everything: if you based your opinions on TV or the movies, you would think the big problem in America is white-on-black violence. In fact, the reality is so overwhelmingly the opposite that most people would be shocked to learn the real numbers.
Per 10,000 whites, 3.4 violent crimes are committed against blacks. Per 10,000 blacks, 153 violent crimes are committed against whites.
As time has gone on, special accommodations for blacks, and disabilities placed on whites, have only grown more intense.
In 2023 the percentage of white men in tenure-track faculty positions at Harvard declined from 39 percent in 2014 to 18 percent. That doesn't happen by accident.
Oh, who cares about Harvard faculty, some will say.
But it reflects a society-wide problem. Here are some other numbers we now know, that also incorporate the anti-male bias in hiring:
TV/Hollywood Writers: White men comprised roughly 48% of lower-level TV writers in 2011, dropping to 11.9% by 2024.
Medical school matriculants: White men accounted for 31% in 2014, declining to 20.5% in 2025.
The Atlantic staff: In 2013: 53% male / 89% white; by 2024: 36% male / 66% white.
University faculty hiring (tenure-track): At UC Berkeley, white men comprised 52.7% of new tenure-track faculty hires in 2015, dropping to 21.5% in 2023.
Humanities/social sciences faculty hires: UC Irvine hired 64 tenure-track assistant professors in humanities and social sciences since 2020 — only 3 (4.7%) were white men.
At UC Santa Cruz, of 59 assistant professors in Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences (2020–2024), only 2 (3%) were white men.
Law school matriculants: White men accounted for 31.2% of law school matriculants in 2016, falling to 25.7% in 2024.
Corporate/tech entry- and mid-level (specifically Amazon): Entry-level “professionals” (college graduates) were 42.3% white male in 2014. By 2024, mid-level managers had fallen from 55.8% white male in 2014 to 33.8% (nearly 40% decline).
Tech workforce (specifically Google): White men represented nearly 50% of the workforce in 2014, dropping to less than one-third by 2024 (a roughly 34% relative decline).
Four years ago a survey of a thousand hiring managers in the United States came out that showed 16 percent of such managers had been expressly told to stop hiring white men.
Further, 48 percent of hiring managers say they have been instructed to prioritize "diversity" over merit, and 53% believe they will lose their jobs if they don’t hire accordingly.
All across the country there are special programs, of every shape and size, for minority applicants. If you had any idea of the scale of it, you would be shocked -- no matter how much you think you know about the subject.
Instead of the kind of gratitude you might expect from people who have benefited from the most systematic effort in any society to assist a minority group -- I haven't even mentioned the literal trillions in wealth redistribution -- it is never enough, and the recipients will scream "RACIST" in your face even for pointing any of this out.
We can hope that the Karmelo Anthony case accelerates the coming of the day when whites say: we have done everything humanly possible for you, and received only hatred and ingratitude in return. You are on your own now.
