THE FILTER DOWN EFFECT | 2010-01-28

Filter Down has always been accepted in all societies. Newly discovered ideas and techniques take a while to be accepted by the general population. Ideologues who refer to themselves as Idealists say that their progressive concepts have not yet "gotten accepted."

This was legitimate in earlier times. In earlier societies basic knowledge remained fairly static, so the only dynamic was the filter down of the different TAKE on people's knowledge and world view. But now we have a dynamic which is even more rapid than the fastest filter-down process. Today our view of reality itself changes far faster than the analysis of OLD world views filter down.

Marxism has filtered down into Political Correctness. But Marxism is a set of ideas derived from Kantian dialectics and, far more so, from the realities accepted in the mid-nineteenth century. Marx assumed that only human beings had institutions. Everyone in his time knew that only man had borders.

Marx assumed that only men had inequality. Marxism did not move a whit from those positions. Political Correctness is based on them today. Lysenko took over Soviet agriculture insisting that genetics was not important.

Today the Missing Frontal Lobes (MFLs) on our side get paid to debate the Communist fairy tale as if it were a serious point of view. If they took the Flat Earth Society that seriously, they would probably be institutionalized.

You will never get rid of this outdated crappola by taking it seriously. To coin a phrase:

When I was a child I thought as a child.

Now it is time to put away childish ways.

MEXICO IS THE PRODUCT OF MEXICANS | 2011-01-19

There is literally a war going on just south of the Mexican border. Any time anyone gets killed on THIS side of that imaginary line from stray bullets, it is news. Then there is the question of whether Mexicans coming here will make this the same kind of country they have.

This is the kind of connection anyone who THINKS about the situation would make. But the job of the liberal-respectable conservative duo is to prevent such thinking.

As I said in the New Rights Papers a generation ago, the reason Mexican labor is worth several times as much when it crosses that invisible line is not magic. It is because, when a Mexican crosses into the United States, he works in a country that is NOT run by Mexicans.

This is a conclusion every respectable conservative points to as heresy. They say it is racism because it cannot matter WHO populates a country. All that matters is the pieces of paper the country is supposedly based on.

So libertarians believe in magic. They insist that there is no reason labor should be worth more on this side of the border.

How many times have you ever heard anyone ask WHY Mexicans have to come HERE for opportunity. We always hear that they are only doing it for their families, of course. There is no greed in Mexicans.

We also hear that the Mexicans are not at all responsible for the full scale slaughter going on where Mexican rule begins. The media are always saying that the whole blame is on Americans, because Americans "have an appetite for illegal drugs."

Political Correctness is a religion, but it seems to me that even after being trained act the liberal seminaries we call colleges, this sort of cant would begin to pall. But all the people around me repeat this crap like trained parrots.

Why is it that the same labor is worth so much more when you cross the Rio Grande? The only thing that changes there is the jurisdiction.

Which is why they are all shouting that Mexico is having that war within gunshot of the American border because Americans are greedy for drugs. So why is the war on the Mexican side of the border?

Americans are impenetrably stupid about immigration. But a war of that magnitude and violence inside the United States would cause even the theologically-obsessed American morons to see that we don't want Mexico here.

So the war is kept on the other side of the border and is never used as an argument against populating this country with the same workers who make Mexico what it is.

In the longer term it will be racist to say that outright war like that should not be inside the United States. That will take a while, but, like everything else I have predicted, it will come to pass if we let the present arguments go by without comment, as respectable conservatives are paid to do.

It is population, not appearences, that makes a country what it is

THE EXPLANATION OF POLITICS | 2007-12-24

These words should be inscribed on every government building, from the White House to the county courthouse:

"People do not get the best government they can conceive. They get the worst government they will tolerate."

Those in power are there for a payoff. We all know that. This obvious fact leads to the conclusion that they will not listen to real problems unless they are FORCED to. But those who do the most bitching about what is going on keep complaining that it is, of all things, UNFAIR.

How on earth can a person bitch about how politics is all about money and selfishness and then moan about how UNFAIR it is?

This is why those in power genuinely love minorities. You just make your deal with the minority "leaders" and then find people with brown skins and hand them a slip of paper telling them how to vote.

Has anybody noticed that the "Get out the vote" that used to be yelled at every election has ceased? They get out THEIR vote now.

Anti-whites and respectable conservatives have joined in a tacit endorsement of suppressing real dissent. William Buckley has endorsed Europe's Thought Crime laws.

"People do not get the best government they can conceive. They get the worst government they will tolerate."

So until we stop putting up with it, it will stay.

Period.

PRO STRATEGY | 2005-04-29

I have a hell of a team.

In the blog below I pointed out Kim Novak was a blue-eyed blond-headed slut, like Sonja Henie, so it was assumed that any black man, married or not, had the right to go after her.

I can make mistakes, my team can't. So one of my team informed me that Kim Novak was a brown-eyed slut with blond hair which may have come out of a bottle. They sent a complete set of photographs to make the point.

These are pros, and nobody charges me a dime. They get the same pay I do, fighting for the cause and nothing else.

They are pros who work for me because I'm a pro.

They have to make sure I KNOW when I'm skirting the thin edge. But my job is to skirt that edge.

For example, I often use the forbidden word, "All."

I say, "All colored countries are poor." This is a trap, and my opponents invariably fall into that.

When there is an audience, my opponent thinks he's got this poor old ignorant redneck bigot right where a truly sophisticated person wants him. He digs for exceptions.

And he is digging his own grave.

There is an almost all-black island in the Carribean which has almost half the per capita income of the US. It is tourist spot, essentially an America suburb. On a world scale, it is rich, not poor. They bring it up.

Kuwait, Dubai and other oil-ruch countries have a much higher per capita income of the United States. They bring that up.

They can win a point on me. They are welcome to it. In the meantime, I keep making MY point:

Without white countries to find uses for oil, to find oil, to get the oil from under the brown folks' feet, the world is doomed to poverty and despair. Without white Americans to generate tourism and airplanes, that Carribean island would be another Haiti.

My team is very, very careful to let me know when I am not correct factually. I need to know that.

But they are also professional enough to know not to worry about it. They figure this poor old stumbling bigoted redneck has a pretty good idea of what he is doing.
