Eugyppius states the home truth that our elite establishment determinedly persists in denying.

The Civil Rights Movement has successfully indoctrinated the American Community of Fashion into a sort of fanatical religious penitential guilt cult that has produced essentially a Second American Reconstruction Period.

White Americans have supposedly inherited limitless guilt for Slavery and Segregation and African Americans have inherited limitless entitlement to compensatory deference, privilege, and are expected, even sometimes encouraged, to feel racial animosity and to commit crimes. When apprehended, the enlightened member of the national elite looking on, simply nods his head in understanding, urges restraint and supports release without bail. If a white American has the temerity to defend his home or, like Daniel Penny, intervenes forcibly to save other people from violent black crime, the justice system in any major American city will throw the book at him and will pursue his condign punishment with all the zeal of Inspector Javert in Les Miserables.

All this is a pattern of perversity, derangement, and lies enforced by a system of thought and speech taboo.

Aside from Mariupol, the war in Ukraine has directly caused around 11 civilian deaths per 100,000 people every year since the Russian invasion in 2022. That is less than the intentional homicide rate of the city where Zarutska was murdered last August.

And Charlotte is far from the most dangerous place our young Ukrainian could’ve fled to. Detroit (32/100,000), Baltimore (35/100,000), San Juan (37/100,000), Memphis (48/100,000) and New Orleans (54/100,000) are all vastly worse. To put it as bluntly as possible – and with as little racial sensitivity as I dare – the U.S. black population is largely responsible for imposing on many American cities a civilian death rate equivalent to or far exceeding that seen in a modern country fighting a war on its own territory.

This fact has made the progressive American political establishment crazy, and they have developed an entire ideological system to avoid confronting this terrible, ruthless reality. They suppress stories of black violence and desperately promote quite rare and exceptional cases of white-on-black crime to invert the hated truths before them. When they are forced to acknowledge inconvenient stories like Zarutska’s murder, they insist that these are also the fault of white Americans because of things that happened generations ago and for which no living person bears any responsibility. All of this vile excuse-peddling, these blind rehearsals of antiracist ideological nostrums, and these unceasing, desperate searches for responsible parties and factors beyond the obvious ones – all these are psychological reactions arising from cognitive dissonance, finally sublimated into a quite pathological ideology.
