White Culture?

     An increasingly common trope amongst the Leftist Intelligencia is that White people have no “culture”, at least beyond being evil incarnate, and that everything they have was stolen or, again, an evil that must be destroyed. This mass unpersoning of an entire race by equating “Whiteness” with the whole of modern Western Civilization puts them in a position of institutional disempowerment and institutional disadvantage in order to justify both racial hatred and to legitimize the Western Civilization itself.

     Sadly, more often than one might hope, the defense of Western Civilization and the White populations from whence it largely came is defended by veiled, and not-so-veiled White supremacists, and often invoked racist tropes and questionable statistics.

     Western Civilization, and the racially White cultures from whence it came, stands on its own:

     However, Western Civilization, which while comes from White populated civilizations by and large, nonetheless has the capability to go beyond such limitations of blood and soil.

Has Euthanasia Gone So Far That Even The Belgians Are Shocked?

     How kill-happy do you have to be when the already kill-happy Belgian medical establishment is so shocked that you are brought up on criminal charges for participating in the killing of your patients?

     This kill-happy:

“Three doctors from East Flanders are being investigated on suspicion of having ‘poisoned’ Tine Nys in 2010. The 38-year-old had been diagnosed with Asperger’s syndrome, a mild form of autism, two months before she was euthanized by a doctor in an apparently legal killing that she had asked for.

“Belgium is one of two countries, along with the Netherlands, where the euthanasia of people for psychiatric reasons is allowed if they can prove they have “unbearable and untreatable” suffering. Among Belgians euthanized for mental health reasons, the most common conditions are depression, personality disorder and Asperger’s.”

Death, Rx

The Origin of Transgender Medicine

     While many find it fun to point out the absurdity of the entire “transgender” thing, this “pwning” of the “libs” is predicated on the assumption that it remains purely fringe and that simply by pointing out that it looks absurd is all that is needed for the great masses to rise up in unison against it.

     This ignores that “transgender medicine” is yet another case of þe olde Gramscian march through the institutions that has been going on for the better part of a century. From this the fundamental precepts of society have been eaten away, and much as with same-sex “marriage”, people have become primed to accept it once opposition to it is denormalized.

     In order to counter all this, it is important to understand how it came to be in the first place. A pediatric endocrinologist goes over some of the history of how all this got started, and how it got so big:

The Coming Assault on the 2nd Amendment in Nevada

     With the election of Steve Sleestak Sisolak to the Governorship of Nevada (the first Democrat to win the seat in nearly a quarter of a century) combined with Democrats newly gained supermajority in the state Assembly (they missed out winning a supermajority in the state Senate by only 24 total votes), the Democrats in Nevada are poised to turn this once purple state a deep shade of blue. This is the first time the Democrats have won a trifecta in Nevada since before the end of the Cold War.

     And what is high up on Sisolak’s agenda? Eviscerating the 2nd Amendment (as well as Article I, Section 11 of the Nevada Constitution):

“Gov.-elect Steve Sisolak says tougher gun laws are one of his top priorities as he takes the top office in Nevada.

“Sisolak told The Associated Press that he wants to see the state ban assault weapons, silencers and bump stocks, which the gunman used in the Las Vegas shooting to modify his guns to mimic the firing of a fully automatic weapon.”

Quick Takes – Institutional Privilege Checking: Mentoring Experts; Unjust Syllabi; “Honorary Whites”

     Another “quick takes” on items where there is too little to say to make a complete article, but is still important enough to comment on.

     The focus this time: F**k off you icky Whites!

     First, a little mood music:

     Carrying on…

     Meanwhile, in the U.K.

“Male, pale and stale university professors are to be given ‘reverse mentors’ to teach them about unconscious bias, under a new Government funded scheme.

“Under the project, white men in senior academic posts will be assigned a junior female colleague from an ethnic minority as a mentor.

“Prof John Rowe, who is overseeing the project at Birmingham University, said he hoped the scheme will allow eminent professors to confront their own biases and leave them ‘feeling quite uncomfortable’. “

Drag Queen Openly Admits Grooming Children

     It was never about tolerance. It was about conquest. It is now that this can be stated openly and honestly.

“I am here to tell you: All that time I said I wasn’t indoctrinating anyone with my beliefs about gay and lesbian and bi and trans and queer people? That was a lie, […] I Have Come to Indoctrinate Your Children Into My LGBTQ Agenda (And I’m Not a Bit Sorry).”

The Neo-Luddites and the Populist Temptation

     In an example of an own-goal portrayed as “owning” the other side, Tucker Carlson totally “pwns” himself:

     The depth of this own-goal self-pwning was noted and viciously belittles by Stefan Molyneaux, including pointing out Carlson’s economic fascism without going so far as to state it for what it is:

     Perhaps Tucker Carlson needs to read “Anthem”…

The Digital Panopticon From Chinese Social Credit to New York and the 2nd Amendment

     The People’s Republic of China is expressing the totalitarian power that social media provides them by giving benefits or denying privileges based, in part, based on their online activity. The State of New York is poised to tell the Chinese Communists “hold my 白酒”!

“Anyone who wants to buy a gun in New York would need to submit their social media profiles and search history prior to purchase if new firearm legislation in the state becomes law.

“Officials would be able to review up to three years worth of search history.”

     More and more, people’s online persona(s) can be linked to their own person in “meatspace”. This is monitoring for thoughtcriminals writ large.
