When They’re Right, They’re Right

, , ,

VDare is Nativist, which seems ironic to me considering the fact that its run by a Limey immigrant, and it very obviously relishes indulging in the sort of divisive rhetoric characteristic of less savory elements of the Alt-Right. But… we are living in a time when only the likes of John Derbyshire has guts enough to speak the obvious truth out loud.

Last night Tucker Carlson did a segment on looting in the flooded city of Houston; or rather, on the outraged reaction to ABC journalist Tom Llamas, who had calmly and factually reported the looting.

“What about our society has changed so much that noting that you’re watching [the looting] is somehow a thoughtcrime?” asked Carlson. …

The segment was decorated with video clips showing the actual looting. So far as I could tell, the looters were all black.

Yet this did not come up. In a 4m37s segment, the word “black” did not occur. Nor did any of the common euphemisms for “black” or “blacks.”

Why not? Because, as the late Larry Auster told us, blacks are sacred objects in our state religion. Criticism of them is received as a species of blasphemy.

As I watched these two talking heads blathering on about “nihilism” and “the destruction of objective values,” I kept hearing, in my mind’s ear, the voice of my old South African colleague cutting through the baloney: “It’s the blecks, dear fellow, it’s the blecks.” That was, in fact, the answer to all the questions they were chewing over so earnestly.

It’s a bit depressing to see that even Tucker Carlson, one of the more fearless of our heterodox commentators, believes he has to cleave to convention on this. …

So here’s my question: When a person inside the state religion observes the orthodoxies like this, is he at all aware how deeply weird it looks to us outside?

If you cannot bring yourself to mention, perhaps even to think, obvious true facts, then the world you are living in is to some degree a make-believe world, and you yourself are, to that same degree, slightly nuts.

I just posted this to Facebook and it will necessarily stir up the leftist loons but I will not stop. In my last few years I will go down fighting. I do have grandchildren.

We call it “race realism” for a reason.

These are our most prized citizens shopping.back in the Great Depression, John Dillinger had the right to shop at Banks. That lasted till he went to the wrong movie. Stealing is stealing, period.

No. Hence the common observation that liberalism is fundamentally a mental disorder.
