Alt Left: The US Has Always Supported Fascism Except for a Few Years in the 1940's
America loves fascists, that's the bottom line. And it's worse America loves fascists, that's the bottom line.
And it's worse than that. Capitalists love fascism. Capitalists have never opposed any fascist state or rightwing dictatorship. Nor have any conservatives ever opposed a single fascist state or rightwing dictatorship.
Now that does not mean that the US is a fascist country, at least in its domestic policies.
Its foreign policy is a lot harder to figure. The US been supporting fascism overseas ever since US corporations started migrating overseas, first in Latin America, in search of greater profits, as capitalism demands that they must do. We may well be a fascist country at the moment. Trump is a fascist and the Republican Party is now a full-fledged fascist party, whereas before this aspect of itself was somewhat submerged, hidden, or put on the back-burner.
But the US has always been a pro-fascist country. We supported fascism from 1910 all the way through the 1930's. The New York Times praised Hitler when he took power. Corporations in the UK felt the same way. He was killing and imprisoning the Left, and making the country safe for wealth and capital. Which is all any capitalist ever wants.
It is only when fascism became racialized, expansionist, and colonial in part due to rage at not being invited to the party when the European powers were racialized and expansionist as part of the divvying up, enslavement, and looting of the word outside of Europe by the European powers.
Japan and Germany were left out of this block party, so they decided, "Hey it's our turn now. You guys have your colonialism, now we will have ours." As the West continued to hold all of its colonies, the Axis powers were correct. Indeed we had to be forced into the war by the Japanese attack that we literally provoked and forced them into.
World War 2 was the only time in history that the US has ever used its military might to attack fascism, mostly because fascism had been getting rather out of hand, uncontrolled, chaotic, and destructive.
Right before the war, the US was pro-fascist, and no sooner was the ink dry on the surrender papers when the US started recruiting former Nazis, Mussolinists, and fascist Axis collaborators in Eastern Europe, but also in Italy, Greece, and Turkey. We immediately hired these Nazis to be our army for the dirty war we declared on the Soviet Union probably a day after the Yalta Agreement.
And no sooner were the Japanese fascists defeated that we started funding and training the Japanese fascist collaborators in South Korea to fight communism. The truth is that no one hates Communists more than fascists. Fascists think they should be killed on sight. More non-fascists are a bit more squeamish or at least not as extremist. So we recruited this brutal and amoral fascists to be dirty-fighting (Nazi-like) soldiers in our war against Communism. The first fascist armies funded by the West started operations in the Baltics and Ukraine only a few months after the Armistice.
So we only fought fascism for four years, from 1941-1945. Before that until 1910, we had supported it. And from 1945-on, the US supported any and all fascist countries or guerrillas everywhere on Earth.
After 1989, US liberal Democrats said this fascist dirty war was the lamentable but sadly necessary policy of the Cold War. Now that the Cold War was over, we didn't need to be so evil anymore, and now we could go back to being the shining city on the hill.
Except the fascist Cold War didn't end in 1989. It's still going on to this day in the sense that it has reverted to the pre-World War 2 policy of supporting rightwing authoritarians and attacking any and all manifestations of the Left. All of the Left countries that were targeted in the Cold War remained targets after Gorbachev.
So the Cold War was never about fighting the evils of Communism in the form of the USSR. The Cold War was simply another phase of the fascist war on the Left everywhere on Earth that the US has waged since 1910. The enemy was never the USSR. The enemy was always socialism, or in many places, even social democracy or social liberalism.
So while we have traditionally not been a fascist country, we have always been a pro-fascist country. We didn't practice it, but we supported itself everywhere it appeared on Earth.

Even Genocidal Maniacs Have Sensitive Stomachs
Contrary to popular nonsense, Hitler didn't invent anti-Semitism. Germany was already crazy anti-Semitic ten years before he was in power.
I remember that Goering went to university in 1921 and none of the German Gentiles would have anything to do with German Jews. It was that bad. Goering that that was stupid and joined the swim team that was full of Jews. He couldn't care less about Jews. Goering was never a personal antisemite. But he went along with it anyway on a "just following orders" basis and the deaths of many Jews lay at his feet. If you're Jewish and dead, I don't think it matters whether he was a personal antisemite or not.
The German military in particular was very anti-Semitic, especially the officers. But in the war, the military was probably the least anti-Semitic part of the regime. The reason the Einstazgruppen were created was because originally they gave the job to regular soldiers and it wasn't working.
There was lots of insubordination, faking sick leave, and of those who did it, a lot of hatred for what they did and PTSD. It was a big fail. So they created the Waffen SS – the Nazi Party part of the Army – to do the things the soldiers would not do. The Einsatzgruppen were created out of a lot of SS men and fanatical volunteers. They were the ones who killed all the Jews in the USSR because no one else had the stomach for it.
About the gas chambers and ovens, it's weird that genocidal maniacs have sensitive stomachs to gross things like death and corpses as they traffic in them so much. At first they were just lining Jews up against walls and shooting them in Europe. Goebbels of all people witnessed one of these mass shootings and became absolutely hysterical. He completely lost it, screaming, yelling, crying, breaking down. He didn't mind killing people. He just wanted it done in a nice, sterilized fashion where it looked more like an entry in an accounting book than a coldblooded murder.
So they created the death camps. Some notorious ones in the East like Sobibor were more extermination camps than concentration camps. They were just shooting them or even hanging them there and then burying them in mass graves in the fields. Goebbels came to visit one day. Turns out there were so many decomposing bodies in those graves that the ground itself was heaving up and down like some horror movie.
Goebbels saw the ground heaving up and down like that and was told why that was happening and once again, he completely flipped and lost it. Poor guy was a mass murderer, but he was a genocidal monster with a sensitive stomach. Germans were civilized people after all. If you're going to kill people, be as decent and civilized about it as you can.
Eventually mass shootings themselves in favor of gas chambers as a more sterile, civilized, and even humane way to do this. And the problem of the mass graves was taken care of by the ovens. Ash doesn't decompose badly. And the disgusting task of gathering up the bodies and putting them in incinerators was given over to Jews themselves ("capos") as even concentration camp guards (almost all SS) themselves were known for their sensitive stomachs or at least civilized sensibilities.

Alt Left: The War Crimes and Depraved Murders/Massacres/Genocides of America Began Immediately After World War Ended
Scarcely were the lights out on WW2 when we started recruiting "ex"-Nazis for our military and intelligence agencies.
We started setting up Operation Gladio or the Stay Behind Network, composed almost purely of Nazis and other fascists, to defend Europe after a possible Soviet invasion and conquest. They would form the behind the lines resistance against the new Soviet Order in Europe.
We started setting up and funding "ex" Nazis and Nazi collaborators all over Eastern Europe to serve as similar stay behind networks to wage guerilla war in parts of the USSR, especially the Baltics (the Forest Brothers) and Ukraine. These guerrilla wars lasted until 1956 and were very brutally put down, mostly by the NKVD.

Alt Left: Why Identity Politics Is Alive, Has an Individual Ego, Does Not Wish to Die, and Is Essentially Fascistic at Its Core
Polar Bear: The Social Left is more loony and emotional than ever. "Whites need to be silent but we also need to end White silence."
Sure, I work in mental health, and I assure you that the Social Left is essentially mental disorder spread out over an entire movement. People don't understand. They think only individuals get mentally ill. It's not so.
Entire groups of people get mentally ill at once. We call it a shared disorder. Entire ethnic groups or societies can become mentally ill, and the disorder looks exactly like it does in an individual. In that sense, groups themselves actually have egos, psyches, etc.
What is an individual? An ego. What is a group of individuals? A mass of egos all together. As an individual can become egotistical, paranoid, projecting, etc., so can a group. In that case the amassing of individual egos creates something like a "group ego."
So we can see entire ethnic groups and nation states as having "individual" egos, defense mechanisms, projections, psyches, and mental disorders. Every part of an individual's psyche can probably become part of the group psyche. In this sense, entire ethnic groups and even nations are like "people" or can be constructed as a person, the way turn of the century cartoons had avatars that represented entire countries, for instance, France represented as Beatrice.
And this is why nationalism is so dangerous. All Identity Politics is just nationalism and suffers from all of the problems(and I would argue mentally disordered thinking) that goes along with nationalism. For Identity Politics is just the "nationalism" of whoever your identity nation is.
Normal nationalists may be Syrians, Turks, Russians, Chinese, or whatever, but in IdPol, people are members of the Female Nation, the Gay Nation, the Black Nation, the Jewish nation (although this blurs with actual nationalism), the Woke Nation, and even, yes, the White Nation because White nationalism is just as insipid and mentally disordered as any other IdPol, except it's probably worse because the hatred is so severe, on the surface, and often acted out with violence.
Politics can become nations. Communists are often members of the "Communist nation," being all Communists. Antifa adherents are members of the Antifa Nation, to the extent such a thing can exist at all with anarchists. Even politics now, ordinary Left and Right, seems like forms of nationalism. Democrats are members of the Liberal Nation or Democratic Nation. Republicans are members of the Conservative Nation or Republican Nation.
What is interesting is that all of these IdPol groups will behave precisely like the nationalisms of ethnic groups or nation-states. Look at how nationalists act, especially ultranationalists, which is another word for fascists. Look at the similarities with IdPol.
This is how IdPol in its extremes seems fascistic.
Feminazis anyone? But feminazis often call themselves socialists. Ever heard of Gay Nazis? Black and Hispanic nationalists can seem fascistic, though they often call themselves Communists. Look at Farrakhan (a "Black Nazi") and the Azteca Movement ("Hispanic Nazis"). Both look surprisingly fascistic, all the way down to the typical antisemitism of so many fascist movements.
In this way, a lot of "Communists" in the imperial core are actually fascists. Any "Communist" who supports separatisms such as female or lesbian separatism, Black separatism with a Black state in the South, or Hispanic separatism with an Aztlan state in the West is really just a fascist. If you were a real Communist, you wouldn't be shutting the door to other workers just because they're White or men or whatever.
Communism and Left Populism tends to be inclusive and led by the oppressed or underdogs.
Fascism and Right Populism tends to be exclusive and led by privileged or ruling groups who bizarrely say they are being discriminated against by their own minorities! Mostly they are afraid of losing their power due to some economic, political or demographic threat.
Hence, "Communism" in the imperial core, with its support for the various mental disorders known as Black, Hispanic, female, and lesbian separatism, has always been more fascist than Communist. This is probably one reason why it has failed so badly. It demonizes far too many proletarians for having the wrong skin color or genitals.
White nationalists of course have always been true fascists and often more or less Nazis in one way or another.
Although they really aren't, conservatives call Antifa fascists. They're more Communists but you can see above how these fascist movements often cloak themselves in the colors of socialism and Communism because they see themselves as oppressed.
Antifa is exclusive as it deliberately excludes and discriminates against Whites in some places like the Autonomous Zone in Seattle, and their "fascism of the oppressed; i.e. Western Leftism" is really not a whole lot different from the true fascism of a ruling group threatened with the loss of its power either politically, economically, or demographically. For an example, see American White nationalists. They're coming from completely different places, and they typically want to murder each other, but really they're more alike than different.
Zionazis? Ever heard of people calling Israelis fascists? Israel is indeed a fascist country, especially now under Netanyahu, a classic fascist on the model of the fascism of the 1920's, which is he reduplicating via his heir Jabotinsky. See The Iron Wall by Jabotinsky, 1921. Not only does Jabotinsky express admiration for existing fascists, he lays the blueprint for a Jewish fascist state. And the project in the book looks like a printout of the Likud Party's positions.
The group is alive. All groups are alive. As individuals don't want to die, groups often don't want to die either. That's why movements like feminism and gay rights won't just disband and take off already even though they've gotten most of what they want.
"Feminism" is like an individual person; the movement itself is "alive" like a person is alive. In addition, many mentally disordered people (this is especially prominent in feminism where almost all of the women are disordered) gain a sense of identity or even have their entire identity tied up in the movement.
Furthermore, the movement, while being an extension of their own disorder, also needs to stick around in order to keep the disorder going. Typically the disorders in movements like these are characterological, and at any rate, they are very ego-syntonic. No woman is wailing about how some part of her is forcing her to become a feminist against her wishes. That would be a neurosis or ego-dystonic anxiety disorder.
Without the movement, these people tend to flounder. They are quite characterologically disordered, so this gets in the way of a lot of real relationships in actual Meatspace, itself being different from the "space" inhabited by the movement. They get quite lost and typically start looking around for another movement to attach themselves to gain a sense of purpose in what is now a purposeless life.
They often grab the nearest movement that comes along, even one in complete contradiction to their previous one, to attach to like a remora onto a shark. This is why you see people flipping from fascist to communist and vice versa (the turn from Far Left in university to Far Right at 40 is typical of many upper class Latin Americans). You see feminists becoming radical anti-feminists. You see far Leftists like David Horowitz and many other neocons doing complete flips and becoming raving reactionaries, albeit with a Wilsonian window dressing to cover their "humanitarian massacres."

Alt Left: Starting to Really Wonder about (((Antifa)))
*Note: in the text below, Jews means Israel unless otherwise noted. I'm actually not referring to the Jewish people in the Diaspora themselves. Yeah. I'm conflating your shitty little country with your tribe, dammit! Why shouldn't I?
Ever notice anything? BLM or even antifa never go after the Jews* (Israel) even one time. I'm actually convinced that antifa is running cover for the Jews. Anyone with the balls enough to stand up to the Jews gets labeled "fascist" by antifa. Getting labeled fascist by antifa means they have the right to beat you up, kill you, invade your country, kill your people, etc. Antifa are this generations Trotskyite traitors.
I am starting to think that some of these Western Commies (mostly the antifa-allied loons) and the antifa anarchists are some sort of weird (((controlled opposition))) to divide the Left. Gee, I wonder (((who))) could be behind that? I'm not saying that antifa is a Jewish project. Maybe it just ended up that way. I actually think it has more to do with the fact that antifa is swarming with (((certain people))). Some of their biggest propagandists are Jews who are obviously running interference for the Jews, all in the name of anarchist revolution!
Antifa is absolutely obsessed with anti-Semitism to a degree that few on the Left are. That strikes me as odd.
Of course, we know why BLM never says a single word against the Jews. I believe it has something to do with their (((donors))), you know what I'm saying. Ah, yes! The eternal (((donor))) question, the graveyard of all US progressive movements. Someone really is behind the scene pulling the strings of the puppets. It's the "money guy." It's no conspiracy theory either. If you want to explain most things in politics, geopolitics, etc., it's pretty simple: follow the money. Jesus was right. It is the root of all evil.
Though some of their top spokesmen are absolutely anti-Semites. But they are the bad kind (Nazi conspiratorial antisemitic racist nonsense) and not the good kind (in opposition to (((that shitty little country)))).
Antifa and the Western Commie lunatics:
Hate Russia. It's "fascist."
Hate China. It's either "authoritarian," "fascist," or "capitalist." The last two are not true.
Absolutely hate Assad and actually support Al Qaeda and ISIS' war against Syria! It's all part of the (((Syrian Revolution))), brother! Syria is "fascist" and "anti-Semitic."
Hate, hate, hate, hate Iran. Iran is run by "fascist mullahs" and "antisemites." Support the (((Iranian revolution))).
Hate Hezbollah. Hezbollah is "fascist" and "antisemitic."
Mostly hate the Palestinians from what I can tell. Apparently all Palestinians are "antisemites."
Hate North Korea. Murderous, I guess.
Hate the Lebanese government. It's run by "fascist" Hezbollah, don't you know? Support the (((Lebanese revolution))).
Support the traitor (((Kurds))) in their war against the Syrian people and the theft of their land, all the way to allying with US imperialism and the Jews, believe it or not.
Support the war in Afghanistan against the "fascist" Taliban.
Not one single peep about Israel, ever. Kinda like how (((Isis))) never attacks the Jews. Ever notice that either?
Not one single peep about any US ally!
Not one single word against the (((Gulf States))).
Not one single word about the real Nazis running Ukraine and the Baltics. Actually antifa supported Nazi Ukraine in the recent war with Russia!

Alt Left: Repost: Down with Colin Flaherty
This is a nice old post about Colin Flaherty. I like it and I think it's worth a repost.
The problem is that Colin Flaherty's whole shtick is that he is not racist at all in any way whatsoever! No, really. That's exactly what he says. And that's how he comes across, endlessly, in article after article and video after video. And that is exactly why this man is so dangerous.
Mr. Flaherty is a journalist and a good one at that. But in his middle age, he has decided to branch out into the area of Black crime, except that his focus has a twist – it's all about Black crime against Whites. The subtext of every Flaherty article or video is that Black people are deliberately singling out Whites to attack as hunters single out prey. Nothing could be more nonsensical. Blacks do not preferentially prey on Whites. It's nonsense.
89% of Black homicides are of other Black people. Most Black crime is Black on Black crime. Much is made of Black men raping White women, but Black men rape Black women at 5X the rate that they rape White women. There are all sorts of nutty arguments that try to deal with these uncomfortable truths while keeping the lousy theory alive.
The principal one was symbolized by the noted theory of Le Griffe du Lion, a very racist White professor of…get this…sociology! He did some fancy mathematics showing that Black people mostly see other Black people all day long and don't see many White people. So of course they prey mostly on their own kind. That's who they are around all the time! If Blacks were around Whites just as much as they were around Blacks, their propensity to hunt Whites preferentially as a predator hunts its prey (Le Griffe's exact words) would come out.
But the other side can play that game too. There are 6X more Whites than Blacks. If Blacks displayed no preference at all in victims, they would kill 6X more Whites than Blacks, right? This argument spouts the rejoinder of "But they are only around their own kind all day…" which is probably a tautology and is certainly not falsifiable, so it fails as theory on its face.
Flaherty wrote a book called White Girl Bleed a Lot. It's all about Black crime against Whites. Yes, Blacks commit some very bad crimes against Whites. But they commit just as bad or worse crimes against their own kind. So only writing about Black crime against Whites is lying in a sense, and worse, you are selling a form of poison to the masses. Racist poison. A really nasty racist poison.
Because nothing drives Whites up the wall more than the idea that Blacks preferentially prey on them as victims. Some of these theorists even go as far as to say that Blacks are waging a low-level guerrilla war against Whites. Oh, what nonsense.
But if you study ethnic conflicts all over the world, one of the things that sets off massacres and ethnic cleansings is the notion that Group B, the outgroup or the other guys, is trying to kill us, Group A.
Hitler set off the genocide by saying the Jews were trying to exterminate Germans.
The Rwandan genocide was set off in the same way.
The Sunni-Shia wars start off in exactly the same way. ISIS propaganda goes to great lengths to show how the Shia are preferentially singling out and slaughtering the Sunni. "They're trying to kill us all," is the message.
This was the line that the Young Turks used to kill 1.7 million Armenians. "The Armenians were starting a war against the Turks, and they were trying to kill all the Turks."
The genocide against Muslims in Bosnia was set off by Serbian lies that "The Muslims were trying to kill the Serbs."
Even the anti-Communist slaughters of the last century which the US fully participated in, each and every one of them, were all predicated on the idea that the Communist killers were going to seize power and kill lots of people. Hitler justified his genocide against the Jews by saying that they were Communists and that the Communists were mass murderers who were "killing millions of Christians" in the Ukraine. Yes, the fake Holodomor, the terror famine that never even happened, was used as a pretext for the Holocaust.
Remember that the next time any of you wants to rant about "Stalin's terror famine." Every time you say that, you are repeating Nazi propaganda. Does it make you feel good to parrot Hitler?
Many of the massacres of Indians were predicated on the notion that the Indians "were coming to kill us all." In the original wording of the Declaration of Independence, there is language about how savage the Indians fought, knowing none of the rules of decency in wartime. "They're savages, so we need to kill them all." See how that works?
In Indonesia in 1965, there was supposedly a Communist coup to take over the government. All the world's media reported it exactly that way. Except that it never happened. There was a fake Communist coup to take over the government. "The Communists tried to take over, and they are going to kill millions of people" lie was then used as an excuse to kill 1 million Communists all over Indonesia in only a few months. Most were hacked to death with machetes. Islamic fundamentalists were used by the US and Indonesia in this slaughter. Remind you of anything? Afghanistan, anyone?
The CIA was on the scene immediately and they supplied the new government with lists of known Communists. These lists were then used to single out people for killing. The US media then lied about the whole affair, with the execrable New York Times leading the charge. Later there was an attempt to bury this mass slaughter as "unfortunate but necessary and a good idea in the long run."
It was only years or even decades later that we learned the truth about the fake coup and the mass slaughter. The Left was devastated in Indonesia and has remained in a meager state to this day. Obviously people in Indonesia have gotten the message about what happens to Leftists, which is always the general message of anti-Communist slaughters.
Hence it follows that once White people get it in their heads that "the Blacks are trying to kill us," we can set ourselves up for some serious persecutions of Blacks based on that narrative. I doubt if we will start massacring Blacks, but "the Blacks are trying to rape and kill Whites" was always the excuse for lynchings and Jim Crow.
It's an ugly narrative, and it's a lie.
I could write articles about this sort of thing too, you know. I see articles all the time about Black people acting terrible, killing each other, killing White people, you name it. 98% of the time, I choose not to write about it. Why write about it? Yes, yes, we know Black people commit tons of crime, including violent crime. Yes, we know Black men have a high homicide rate.
Yes, we know that Black men kill many White people – but they kill far more Black people, and by and large, they prey mostly on their own kind.
Looking at the larger picture, Black criminals simply prey on other humans. They rob, rape and kill Hispanics, Asians, Whites and Blacks. They attack everyone. They are not real particular.
And the evidence shows that if anything, they by far preferentially select their own kind for violence, and they preferentially select against White victims. So if anything, Blacks prefer to prey on their own kind and it looks like Blacks actively avoid preying on Whites. If that's the reality, then it's quite a poisonous stew to cook up to sell the lie that Blacks preferentially attack Whites. "They're coming to kill us! The Blacks are trying to kill us White people!" It's not only a lie, but it's a very dangerous lie, a mental poison with grave effects.
Just to see what sort of vibes Flaherty is churning up, look at the commenters. Looks like Niggermania, Chimpout, American Renaissance and Stormfront. There are all sorts of very vicious and ugly remarks against Black people as a race on there. So even if Flaherty really is a non-racist as he insists, look at all the wild racism that his irresponsible (or worse) videos and articles sprout. He's fertilizing the land with poison, watching the weeds he watered grow and take over the land and choke out all the good and decent crops, all the while protesting that he had nothing to do with it, he was just some innocent farmer trying to grow crops. Yeah. Crops of weeds.
Whenever I see that language, I think, "This person is promoting hatred against Greg, Tulio, and Alpha." I think that's unacceptable. None of these Black people do much of anything wrong. They live like good, law abiding citizens, and in short, they are good people. Selling hate propaganda against good people just because they are Black is wrong.
And that is why you, Mr. Flaherty, are wrong.
And that is why you, Mr. Flaherty, are promoting a very dangerous lie.

Alt Left: Conservatives Say That Inequality in Latin America Is Caused by Socialism
Transformer (to Jason): I notice you don't write about Latin America a lot.
I was hoping for Robert to respond to this article but would like your thoughts. I think the issue of inequality in Latin America is very deep. Conservatives like to blame the left and Communism (think Fidel Castro and the current Venezuela government under Maduro), but the situation is more complex.
Conservatives say inequality is caused by socialism and Communism? See what liars they are? Conservatives are the biggest shmucks. See? They can't even lie properly. The best liars are at least somewhat believable. Conservatives are like the 13 year old pathological liar. He's just a kid and you can safely dismiss almost everything he says. Seeing as they are such awful liars, why do so many people fall for their laughable, pitiful lies?
It's the greed, right? Conservatives sell greed. They say support conservatism if you want to make lots of money or keep all the money you have. Support liberalism is you like being poor and having most of your money taken away and wasted on boondoggles and ne'er do wells, many of them disgusting criminals, and the rest at least repulsively amoral and stupid.
I guess if you are selling greed, stupid humans will believe everything you say. Tell him if he wants to be rich he will realize it's pitch dark outside when it's 95 degrees and high noon, and he'll go outside and insist it's true. Tell them he can keep all his money if he'll only acknowledge that the sun comes up in the west and sets in the east, and he'll swear they knew it along.
The truth is the opposite. The more socialism you have, the greater the economy. Venezuela before the crash was the most equal country in Latin America. Belarus and the Scandinavian countries are some of the most equal countries on Earth, with GINI indexes of 25-30, which is about where any country should be.
I admit that conservatives have their good points about their Latin American capitalism, but saying that Latin American inequality is caused by socialism isn't one of them.
The more rightwing economics you have down there (or anywhere else in the world, for that matter), the more unequal things get. This is because capitalism is exactly how Marx said it was. The rich get richer and the poor get poorer is the natural, typical, expected, and totally ordinary outcome of any pure capitalist system. You could almost write a Goddamned mathematical law about it. I know you can plot it on a linear chart.
The only countries that split up their wealth in any sort of fair way other than, "Everything for the top 20%, and nothing for anybody else!" are societies that have seasoned and moderated their capitalism with ample helpings of socialism. Capitalism is great for growth and crap and distribution. Social is bad at growth and great at distribution.
I think it's clear that some sort of mixed economies with private, cooperative, family, and public enterprises work best of all. And the commanding heights of the economy must be ruled by the state. This is one thing the Chinese got right. And incidentally, in Japan and even South Korea, it is much the same. And both of the latter countries model their economies in part on, believe it or not, Nazi Germany. There were a lot of terrible things about the Nazis, but their economy was not one of them.
In such a system, the state owns the commanding heights and has the last say in everything. And both quite-capitalist countries use state economic planning to guide their economy. So it's not true that a planned economy does not work. When state and private actors work together to guide the economy of the country forward, the results are very good.

Alt Left: Semantic Entropy Is Here: We Are All Lexicographers Now
Definitions of crimes, thoughtcrimes, or offenses against this, that, or whatever social norm creep steadily upward ever year.
Rape? It's as big as the Atlantic Ocean now.
Assault? What is that? You looked at someone wrong. That's assault.
Sexual assault? The definition spreads every year like a kudzu vine. In my opinion, sexual assault is simply another word for dating. It didn't used to be, but that's how the ladies have it set up now boys, and the girls make the rules now in this world, and don't you ever forget it.
Battery? What's that? I tapped a woman on the shoulder. That's literally battery nowadays.
Sexual battery? What's is that? Can someone explain to me what it is so I don't do it because it sounds kind of fun, and I might try it. They want to get pounded anyway, and that's kind of right battery now that I think of it.
Sexual abuse? What does it even mean? It means any time an adult human had sex with an adolescent human ages 13-17, the poor teenager got abused. Oh boo hoo. Not only that, but the little lass now needs 20 years of therapy for that time she got sexually abused by seducing that 25 year old man at that party and grabbing his cock. She seduced the guy, so I guess she abused herself. Oh well, self abuse is fun. I prefer to do it with some porn though.
But no matter. Abused she was, and abused she will be! The inevitable damage is already there. We can't see it or measure it, but women tell us it's there, so we have to take their word for it. Damaged how long? Forever more. Because of the scars that won't heal.
All women are not only Permanent Children but they are also Permanent Victims.
The victimization starts on the first day when any men around, if there even are any that is, start misogynisting the newborn girl. Because that's what males do to little girl babies. They misogynist them in all sorts of microaggressive ways. The microaggressions are hard to see or measure, but if you get an electron microscope, you can make them out all right. Wicked men. Turning their misogynist abuse into nanotech!
Because that's what we men to do females. We misogynist them. Every day. All day long. Like a rocket barrage that never ends. Poor women! Poor babies! Women are crying! Women are babies!
Quick, someone get that lady a handkerchief to wipe her tears. That man over there walking away just misogynisted her, and now she's going to cry for half an hour!
The misogynisting goes on all through the wretchedness we call the Life of Woman, even in those retirement villages where those evil old men who can't even get a hardon anymore still misogynist those little old ladies all the doggone day. What's a lass to do?
Grooming? What's that? I guess you can groom anyone now. Men can groom 40 year old women. Who knew? Turns out I've been grooming females my whole life. And I had no idea! I heard lower primates like to groom each other as a show of affection, but I had no idea I had so much chimp in me!
Illegal looking! Watch those eyes! It's illegal to look at women now in California! Stamp out that male gaze! We'll put out your eyes and send you to Purgatory to stand on a cliff for half of eternity till you work it off!
Pedophilia? That's probably 90% of all sex now, especially now that all women are shaved as bare as 12 year olds. It's mass hysteria and a moral panic. So half the population are effectively psychotic at least on the issue being hysterisized.
Hitch a ride on the moral panic train! It's a fun ride, folks. Full of thrills and spills and an outrage around every bend. You'll be scared from the moment you hop on til the moment you disembark, if you ever do. But that's the whole idea.
Pedophiles? Well that's 100% of us men for sure because if you get turned on by 17 year old girls, nowadays you're literally a pedophile. Well not all men. Dead men and gay men don't count, but the rest are disgusting pedos!
Trespassing? What's that? I don't even know what that is anymore.
Breaking and entering? That includes reaching inside someone's door to knock on their door now. You broke into their house with your hand to knock on the door. I got the cops called on me the other day for that. A cop came to my door and threatened to arrest me for putting my hand into someone else's doorway, and thereby breaking and entering their residence. I tell ya, we got one Hell of a serious crime wave in this country!
Sexism? What's that? Define it. Another word with either no definition or any definition, whichever you prefer. Take your pick! Or just make up your own definition. DIY!
Misogyny? It's everywhere. How do we know it's everywhere? Because it's misogyny. How do we know it's misogyny? Because it's everywhere.It's a great theory because it's not even wrong. There! I just saw some misogyny crawl under the bed! Get a broom and stop it before it kills again!
Racism? What's that? Define it. Ever notice that no one can even define that word? It's literally a word with no meaning at all or a meaning that encompasses half of life, so it's everything and nothing both at once.
Nazi? That's 42% of the population now. Didn't I know that? Silly me!
Hater? That's half the population. Well, now you can feel better as you stew. Know you're not alone.
Homophobia? Nowadays we are at the point where if you won't suck another guy's cock, you're a homophobe. Another word with no meaning. Define it. If you're going to accuse half of society of it, the least you could do is define it. Nope. No one knows what it means, or worse, it means whatever the person uttering the word thinks it means. Everyone gets to define their own words now. Fun, huh? We are all lexicographers now!
Sexual harassment? If a woman was made to feel uncomfortable, she got harassed. That's literally the definition. Crazy, huh? How to avoid giving the crazy the lovely lass a wild hair up her ass? Easy, just read her mind. Easy as pie. Anyone can do that, come on!
Sexual harassment means whatever the woman who says it thinks it means. If the little lady thinks she got harassed, she did.
Rape? It's all rape, baby! What is? Sex! All of it? Well, not all of it, sure.The vanilla stuff isn't rape at the moment, but don't worry, the feminists are hard at work on it. Inventing new crimes every year!
But most of the fun kind of sex is rape, or rapey, or grey rape, or acquaintance rape, or spousal rape, or rape by deception rape (otherwise known as "seduction"), or rape by handing her a beer before you have sex with her rape, or regret rape the next morning or 20 years later rape, or coercive rape by talking or better yet arguing her into it rape (my specialty).

Alt Left: A Rundown of the "Conservative Left"
Here is a rundown on the "conservative Left" – liberal to Left on economics and centrist to Right on social issues.
Nazbols or National Bolsheviks– The classic socially conservative and economically Leftist group. Founded in Russia by Limonov, a writer. They never had much of an ideology other than some extreme nationalism, albeit not ethnic nationalism but instead "Russian Empire nationalism" -see below. Mostly they were just permanent rebels, almost perverse in that sense. They seemed to automatically oppose anything or anyone in power reflexively. Often tarred by the Cultural Left as fascists, Nazis, etc. However, Limonov himself was neither a Nazi nor a fash. His movement united people from the left, right and center in a populist nationalism similar to Peronism. More of a Third Positionist. Arkan's Serbian Tigers of the Serbian National Party could be seen as Nazbol. Horribly marred by racism and even genocidism. They were guilty of genocide of non-Serbs in the Balkans. Milosevic may have been similar – a racist Communist (see below).
The Alternative Left or Alt Left – more Centrist than conservative on social stuff. Already splintered to Hell and split into 13 different wings, including a moderate sort of liberal-Left White Nationalist wing rejected by the others but nevertheless one of the founding factions. Movement was originally race realist, now dropped from program. Agnostic and silent – no comment – on race realism. Brocialist Left (Brocialists), also Partyboy Left, Fratboy Left, Trollblogger Left, Shitlord Left, or Asshole Left, sometimes very irreverent and offensive but mostly just trolls. Shitlord, shitposting and trolling tendencies. Some are "trollbloggers" like Max
The Realist Left. More liberal than left on culture and more between the Cultural Left and the Alt Left on social stuff. Their beef is more intellectual – opposition to postmodernism. They are also anti-Marxist though. Basically Keynesians with safety net.
The Old Left. Hard Left on economics. Quite conservative on culture. Think KPRF or the Russian Communist Party.
Dirtbag Left, etc. Left economics. Other groups think the are too SJW. Basically brocialists. Jimmy Dore, Kyle Kuklinski, Cenk Uyghur, etc. Anti-SJW, irreverent. Partyboy Left, Fratboy Left, Asshole Left. Brocialists.
leftypol -longstanding 4chan sub. Marxist on economics but somewhat anti-Identity Politics (Idpol), nevertheless quite left on culture but not nearly as far as the Cultural Left. Sort of Cultural Left 1995, if you will.
Third Positionists. All sorts of groupings. Vary a lot but tend to be nationalists but not ethnic nationalists – anyone can come to the nation, assimilate, and be a national – French post-Revolution nationalism or Russian nationalism. Russian nationalism like French nationalism is assimilationist nationalist and typically not ethnic nationalist, accepts many minorities into the "empire" of the Russian state, Orthodox but warm towards moderate Islam and assimilating Jews, very pragmatic.
Peronism – longstanding socialist nationalism of the "common man" or shirtless ones and populist in that sense. Somewhat socially conservative. Like Nazbols in uniting right, left, and center around a populist nationalism. Also contained both Marxist and fash wings!
International Socialist Movement – runs International Socialist Review website. Trotskyist but pragmatic, longstanding anti-Idpol on a Marxist theoretical basis.
"Conservative Left" – There are others that are part of existing states. However they are marred by ethnic chauvinism, racism, fash tendencies, authoritarianism, brutality, or even genocidism. Erdogans in Turkey, Orban in Hungary, Arab nationalists like Baath Party people in Syria and Iraq, Burmese regime, Qaddafi's green socialism in Libya, Iranian Revolutionary Left or even the existing state, Putin in Russia, Lukashenko in Belarus, Duterte in Philippines, Sandinistas, ETA in Basque Country (dissolved), and even Hamas & Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood to some extent. All former Communist countries were conservative on social stuff with left economics.
Red Tories – Canadian group. Liberal-left on economics, a bit conservative on social stuff but not too much. Moderate heterodox movement.
George Wallace supporters – left populism marred by racism.
Strasserists – "White Nationalist Left" or worse Nazi Left or Racist Left in the original incarnation. Heimbach's Traditionalist Workers Party, Tom Metzger, etc. I appreciate Metzger's populist support for workers – albeit White workers – and ferocious anti-bossism, anti-rich rhetoric. Both are Strasserists, but they are terribly marred by racism- Metzger's followers have murdered minorities and Heimbach's movement was very racist. Original Strasserists disliked Jews on an economic instead of racial basis and rejected Nazi scientific racism. Nevertheless, modern Strasserists have committed racist murders against Jews, so I don't see why the reason for their antisemitism is important. They are extremely marred if not discredited by racism. Basically Nazi Communists, if that term even makes sense. Strasserists were very pro worker and anti-capitalist, I'll give them that. There is a huge Strasserist wing on Stormfront. Most people don't know that.
"Economic reductionists" – slur directed by mainstream Left towards the conservative left. Also often called fascists, rightists, conservatives, racists, sexists, homophobes, transphobes, bigots, etc. probably falsely because conservative Left types are not even as bigoted as conservative Republicans, instead more centrist on minority and women's issues, and in general most conservative Left groups support equal rights based on race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, and gender identity.
We can go on and on here. Jack London was a sort of Racist Left akin to the WN wing of the Alt Left. The US Left was like this pre-Kennedy. Many US working class and union members are still like this, now scandalously abandoned by the Democrats and US Left as Deplorables, and hence voting Trump and Republican in vast numbers. I think the Democrats need to let these folks back into the fold, but we're too busy screaming at them and calling them bigots and rednecks. Hence we have Trump as President and a Republican Congress. Way to go Cultural Left! Keep electing Republicans!

Alt Left: Zionism Has Turned Some of the Best People into Some of the Worst People, and This Is Sad
I would like to point out that outside the Zionist political formation and state in Israel, the Jews are not responsible for many if any deaths. They're hardly killers, and much less murderous genociders.
This is what their involvement with Zionism has done to the Jews: it has turned this relatively pacific people into murderous and genocidal maniacs.
Jews peaceful? Sure. Look at the quiet dignity and altruistic, even self-sacrificing manner in which the Jews went to their deaths in World War 2. The Holocausted Jews are close to the definition of "pure victims," who did little if anything wrong to justify their persecution and extermination.
I am not commending the way that the Jews went to their deaths. They were mostly blindsided. There were armed Jewish resistance groups, mostly in Poland, Belarus, and the Ukraine. Jews were probably members of most of the anti-Nazi resistance groups in Europe.
The Jews of the Warsaw Ghetto waged a hopeless if supremely noble act of resistance. But there was an air of supreme self-sacrifice or pure victimhood in this battle too. These Jews in Warsaw knew they were headed to their deaths but decided to go down fighting rather than be taken peacefully. This is among the most noble ways a man can die.
Of course I would have preferred if the Jews fought back more, but as I said, they were mostly blindsided. The non-Jews in the Nazi-conquered areas didn't fight back much more than Jews. The Nazis quickly overran all of these countries and were in control almost before any resistance could appear. They ruled with iron control.
I am not "blaming Jews" for going placidly to their deaths like sheep either. If the 70 years since the establishment of Israel has shown us anything, it is that Jews are definitely fighters and are quite capable of killing their enemies to survive.
I am only saying that the way in which they solemnly marched to their deaths approaches "pure innocence," oddly enough a Christian trait. The Jews who did this were nearly saintly in their ultimate self-sacrifice, especially the doomed fighters of the Warsaw Ghetto, who should be revered as some of the finest of men .
I am sure many Jews will object to being compared with their worst enemies, the Christians. Fine, this is how they are. Let them rage on. This is their nature – to see faults and enemies everywhere every time a non-Jews breaches the subject of the Jews. Jews are nothing if not paranoid. That it's understandable doesn't mean it's not disordered.
However, I would like to point out that there are extremely noble aspects to the Christian faith, and it's a much more morally demanding religion than Judaism, acknowledged by Jews themselves in their many jokes about Christians being goody-goods, fools, suckers and knaves who act so good that they harm themselves. But even there, we see the ultimate self-sacrifice embedded in the Christian religion.
I don't care what Jews say. The Christian notions of ultimate self-sacrifice, pure innocence, and the saintliness that ensues is one of the crowning moral achievements of the human race. Everyone knows Christians are too good for their own good. That's as clear as air. But it's also paradoxically the entire rationale for the religion in the first place. As the Jewish convert Saint Simone Weil* noted, it's pretty easy to be a Jew, but its awful hard to be a Christian.
Christianity is one of the most morally demanding religions, and this is its Achilles Heel. Most humans are simply not good enough to be good Christians. People don't want to be that good. They want to be a bit bad instead. But a religion that demands the ultimate in self-sacrificing morality can hardly be faulted. Someone who is too good for his own good is still a very, very good person, let's face it.
What I am saying here is that a lot of the behavior of the Jews during the Holocaust resembles saintliness, a moral pinnacle for human behavior. Yes, many of them died. But they died by being some of the finest people on Earth.
And here is the saddest thing about Zionism. Zionism has turned Jews into their worst enemies in the name of survival. It turned some of the finest people on Earth in terms of pure saintliness into murderers and genociders. And this is a very sad thing.

Alt Left: Former Nuremberg War Crimes Prosecutor on the Immoral Killing of the Iranian General
I am very happy to print this piece by Mr. Ferencz.
However, I have to tell you a few things about Ferencz. First of all, of course, he's Jewish. Well, you probably figured that out.
Though I appreciate his judge duties at Nuremberg, that's not all there is to this man. He was involved in rounding up many of the people who were sent to trial in Nuremberg. He was out in the field helping forces to detain suspects. In many cases, he went out to villages and he would line up say 20 villagers and say that if they didn't tell the truth about their involvement in Nazi war crimes, he would shoot them all in the end. So a lot of the confessions he obtained were coerced.
Ferencz ferociously defended his methods of obtaining confessions by threatening people with execution if they didn't confess. I don't agree with that. I don't agree that you point a gun at anyone's head and order them to confess or you blow their brains out. Screw that. I don't care if they're Nazis. I don't care if they're terrorists. I don't care if they're serial killers or child murderers. You don't get to do stuff like that.
As I noted, 98% of the ~530 top Nazis interrogated by US Jewish interrogators had their testicles crushed. So all of those confessions were coerced too. I don't agree with coercing confessions with beatings, torture, or threats of executions. For one thing, the person's confession is now immediately suspect because you beat or tortured it out of him.
By doing this, Jews gave a ton of ammo to Holocaust Deniers who can point to these coerced confessions and use it to justify their Holocaust Denial. Way to go, Jews! Give ammo to the Nazis! Once again, Jews react completely emotionally and screw things up, in this case the prosecution of their very worst enemies.
Personally, I think it was a terrible idea for the US to employ Jewish interrogators for the worst Nazis. What was the point? It was so obvious that these Jews were going to beat or torture these men, often drastically. So why do we want to do that? This just sounds like paybacks on the part of the US. That was emotional thinking. It was bad strategic thinking from our point of view.
Anyway, he has a good point about Soleimani.
Former Nuremberg War Crimes Prosecutor on the Immoral Killing of the Iranian General
Below is timely letter to the New Your Times by Benjamin B. Ferencz, who was chief prosecutor at Nuremberg. What is required is the establishment of a Nuremberg 2.0 Criminal Court to judge US war crimes. As pointed out by Benjamin B., the ICC and the ICJ are being bypassed.
By Benjamin B. Ferencz
New York Times 15 January 2020
Now in my hundredth year, I cannot remain silent. I entered the United States in January 1921 as a poor immigrant boy, and I have felt obliged to repay the United States for the opportunities given to me.
I was an American combat soldier in World War II, and was proud to serve my country as the chief prosecutor in a war crimes trial at Nuremberg against Nazi leaders who murdered millions of innocent men, women and children.
The administration recently announced that, on orders of the president, the United States had "taken out" (which really means "murdered") an important military leader of a country with which we were not at war. As a Harvard Law School graduate who has written extensively on the subject, I view such immoral action as a clear violation of national and international law.
The public is entitled to know the truth. The United Nations Charter, the International Criminal Court and the International Court of Justice in The Hague are all being bypassed. In this cyberspace world, young people everywhere are in mortal danger unless we change the hearts and minds of those who seem to prefer war to law.

"There's a Little Jew in Every German"
Jason: In the new antisemitism – maybe post-Darwin – it's all about race, so the Jew who coverts doesn't make a difference.
This was one of the saddest things about the Nazi type of racial antisemitism or new antisemitism. A lot of European Jews, especially in Germany, had converted out of Judaism – usually to Christianity – and the Nazis rounded them up anyway if they had a Jewish mother.
And in Germany a lot of Jews had converted out, often to Protestantism. There's a saying in Germany, "There's a little Jew in every German," and it's true to an extent. Which makes the Holocaust even more weird because it was basically very watered-down Jews (Nazis) calling much more pure Jews (the actual named Jews) "Jews" and killing them. So in a way the Holocaust was Jews killing Jews!
It's hard to see Nazis as Jews, but I'm sure a lot of them had a little Jewish blood. Jewish blood in Germany was such a huge problem though that the Nazis had to devise all sorts of odd rules about who was a Jew. If your father was a Jew, a lot of times, you just got off scot free. Not necessarily always though.
A huge number of half-Jews served in the German Army, and I there even a figure tossed around that 300,000 half-Jews served in the SS! I'm not sure how true that is, but if it is true, it is shocking because the SS was truly vicious antisemites. The Nazis needed to draw the line somewhere about who was a Jew because otherwise they would have had to kill half the country ha ha.

Alt Left: Why Is It That All Antisemites Are Holocaust Deniers?
PB: Most people lynched were White and deserved it. The showers were for delousing, Typhus was the big killer. I'd trust a mentally handicapped kid with a NS over Woody Allen.
I don't know if most of those lynched were White. Maybe they were. But the Nazis absolutely murdered 5.7 million Jews, and quite a few others for that matter, in cold. They were trying to wipe them off the face of the Earth or at least off the face of Europe.
I don't necessarily blame people for being anti-Semites. Sort of like I don't blame people for being racist against Blacks. Lots of Blacks and Jews act horrifically. To some extent, each is sort of a race of psychopaths. Which is precisely why people don't like them. A lot of people who dislike Jews and Blacks are simply good, moral, honest people who despise psychopaths and other amoral rats.
But why every anti-Semite on Earth has to deny the damned Holocaust is just beyond me. I mean if you were a real anti-Semite, you would think that the Holocaust was the greatest thing since sliced bread, right. "Woo-hoo! We killed 6 million of those fuckers! Oh Hell ya! Go Nazis go!"
Instead they've got to lie and say it never happened.

Alt Left: A Whole Nation Was Guilty of Mass Murder, and Most All of Them Got Off Scot Free
I assure you with 100% accuracy that there was poison gas in those showers. And I know precisely why they went to that method of killing too. They had been killing inmates in other ways, but there were issues with those ways of killing people, so they went to gas.
And before that, they used mobile gas vans. We have Germans who used to drive those vans on camera testifying about what they did. They were walking about Germany just a while ago. A lot of the men who did things like that never served a day in prison.
The Allies had a real problem at the end of the war. They basically had a whole country full of damned Nazis who were up their necks in all of this mass slaughter. Even if they weren't doing it, they were often cheering it on or being willfully ignorant.
Right after the war was over, some Jews tried to go back to their old residences. They were met with hostility by just about everyone, and a number of them were simply murdered on the spot. And no one said a word. You had a whole nation full of homicidal antisemites.
What are you gonna do? You gonna execute a whole country. Morgenthal wanted to and his plan was almost put into place. Damn good thing we didn't have Jews running postwar Germany. It was bad enough that we deliberately hired Jews to interrogate the worst Nazis at Nuremberg.
Out of 550 of the worst Nazis, 98% of them had their testicles crushed. Obviously by their Jewish interrogators. It's understandable, but now we are as bad as they are. Also now the Holocaust Deniers get to say that all confessions of Nazis at Nuremberg were tortured out of them. Just downright stupid. We should not have had one Jew among those interrogators.
We executed approximately 1,000 of the worst Nazis at Nuremberg. A Hell of a lot more than that were guilty as Hell. Many served short sentences of 2-10 years and got out. Others served longer. Rudolph Hess served until the end of his life, and he was one of the best Nazis of all. The USSR demanded that he never be released so he died in prison at an advanced age.
The truth is that a whole country full of Nazis more or less got off scot-free after the war. There wasn't really any other way to do it, honestly.

Alt Left: "Bolivia Faces Ethnic Cleansing, Racism, and South African-Style Apartheid?" by Andrew Korybko
Granted, there's a lot of hyberbole in this article. There's no evidence that ethnic cleansing of or South African-style apartheid against Bolivia's Indians is going to happen, and it seems a bit far-fetched.
But trust me when I say that this coup is absolutely racist to the core.
The opposition in Bolivia is strange. They're White Supremacist Nazis who aren't even White people! They just think they're White. I really doubt if there are more than 5-10% actual Whites in Bolivia – never mind that they've always run the country.
The Bolivian Nazi opposition are actually mestizos – how dark they are is a matter of conjecture – but they're not pure White by any means. I remember the time I saw a Bolivian opposition woman waving a Nazi flag. I looked closely at her and she was quite brown-skinned. She had more or less White features, but she obviously had some Indian in her. The contrast was shocking. I'm thinking why in the Hell is this brown-skinned mestizo woman waving a Goddamned Nazi flag?
I guess they're Whiter than the Indians so they think they're White?
What's odd here is that this seems to lend credence to the moronic anti-racists' attitude that there's no such thing as race and that race is simply a social construct.
That's obliviously not true, but it's definitely the case that the race people identify with is not necessarily their own. In other words, people's own racial identification is often a hallucination or a product of their mind.
The opposition comes from the wealthier eastern part of Bolivia which is more of a tropical jungle than the freezing Andean highlands where the Quechua and Aymara Indians with the bowler hats reside and have long worked in the mines, lately mostly tin mines. Bolivia has long been one of the world's biggest producers of tin.
Recently riches of oil and natural gas have been discovered in the east, and this has resulted in a lot of prosperity in that region.
Morales' economy was not socialist by any means, but he infuriated these mestizos in the east by nationalizing the oil and gas reserves for the Bolivian people. Previously they had been privately owned, and having them owned by the private sector was a great way for a lot of the people in the east to suck a lot of that oil and gas money out of the country and into their pockets.
There are also Indians over in the east – lowland jungle Indians. I'm not sure that the easterners have any problems with them.
Morales also massively redistributed wealth in the country, taking a lot of the oil and gas wealth from the east and shifting it over to the Indians in the west. Obviously this infuriated the easterners. Well, if you think income redistribution is the definition of socialism, I suppose Morales had a socialist economy, but that's not the way I define the term.
As the article points out, Bolivian politics have always been about the ruling mestizos and Whites' overwhelming hatred of the Aymara and Quechua Indians of the western mountains. That's the theme running through Bolivian politics for over 100 years.
With Morales, for the first time, the Indians had power in Bolivia. It must have been a supreme insult for these haughty mestizos to be ruled by those lowly Indians. A similar dynamic is going on in Venezuela. The light-skinned ruling class is furious that darker-skinned more or less "niggers" are ruling over them. It's like the maids and the servants taking over your mansion and locking you in your bedroom while they party with your stuff.
Morales also engaged in a lot of affirmative action with the Indians, so a lot of jobs were opened up to Indians that were closed off to them in the past. I assume that Bolivian Indians are about as competent or intelligent as Bolivian mestizos, so I don't have a problem with AA when the groups are relatively equal.
I just don't like lesser qualified people being hired and promoted over the more qualified ones. To say that's perverse is an understatement.
But I believe that that AA for the Indians is definitely on its way out with this new government. They've made some statements along those lines.
Frankly, the statements being issued by the new fascist coup regime officials are absolutely shocking in their outrageous and blatant racism against Indians. There's also a frightening amount of venom behind those words.
I knew the US always loves fascists, but I didn't know we loved actual Nazis. Well, we supported them in prior fascist governments in South America in Bolivia and Argentina in particular.
And we installed a blatantly Nazi regime in Ukraine, mostly anti-Russian Nazis in that case. By the way, Israel was a strong supporter of the Nazi putschist regime in Ukraine. Many young Israelis went over to Ukraine to fight in the Maiden alongside out and out Nazis.
I'm sorry but I lose all respect for any Jew who supports Nazis for whatever insane reason they have. I really don't care what happens to Jews like that. You don't support your worst enemies for God's sake. If you do, you're an utterly amoral slug of a person, barely fit for life. You don't stand for anything and you have no morals, no values, nothing at all of any consequence. You're basically just a pure whore of a human being.
Here we are again, supporting Nazis, this time anti-Indian Nazis. Just when I think my country can't get any lower, we do something like this.
Bolivia Faces Ethnic Cleansing, Racism and South African-Style Apartheid?
By Andrew Korybko
Global Research, November 18, 2019
Post-coup Bolivia is at risk of Croatian-style ethnic cleansing and South African-like apartheid unless the protesters succeed in putting substantial international pressure on the new "authorities" and ensuring that genuinely free and fair elections are held as soon as possible as the most realistic attempt to reverse the recent regime change.
Far From Over
The Hybrid War on Bolivia succeeded in carrying out regime change and could potentially have far-reaching geostrategic consequences, but its most devastating impact might be domestic if the new "authorities" are allowed to carry out their socioeconomic agenda.
Post-coup Bolivia is at risk of Croatian-style ethnic cleansing and South African-like apartheid unless the protesters succeed in putting substantial international pressure on Jeanine Anez and her military backers in order to ensure that genuinely free and fair elections are held as soon as possible as the most realistic attempt to reverse the recent regime change.
"Former" President Morales' Movement For Socialism (MAS) reached an agreement with the the self-professed "president" on Thursday night to work towards new elections, during which time lawmakers also voted to approve a member of MAS as the new Senate head. Although there are still protests and the death toll continues to rise, the latest political developments are somewhat encouraging, but that doesn't mean that the Hybrid War itself is over, or even close to it.
A Christian Supremacist As The "Head Of State"
Anez is a Christian supremacist who harbors extremely racist views towards her country's indigenous population. She wrote in a now-deleted tweet from April 14, 2013 that
"I dream of a Bolivia free of Satanic indigenous rites. The city is not for the Indian: they should go to the highlands or the Chaco".
She also dramatically declared herself president while brandishing a gigantic Bible and stating that "the Bible has returned to the palace", which was meant to imply that President Morales wasn't really a Christian like he claimed but a paganist because of his previous support of indigenous religions.
It's also extremely symbolic that her so-called "cabinet" doesn't include a single indigenous person, and it shouldn't be forgotten that the capital was convulsed in an orgy of violence against Morales' many indigenous supporters the night that the coup succeeded.
Taken together, it convincingly appears that one of the hyper-nationalist coup plotters' agendas is to ethnically cleanse the indigenous population out of the cities and back to the countryside where their racist supporters believe that they "belong" so that the "civilized" parts of the state can become "purely" Christian.
The Roots Of Racist Rage
President Morales' 13 years in office saw the massive influx of indigenous people to the cities as this demographic became empowered through his socioeconomic policies and finally began to more actively play their rightful role in the country's affairs.
This shift upset some of the mestizos who felt that their comparatively privileged positions were being challenged with the connivance of the state, which contributed to their rising anger against the long-serving leader and the racist-fascist views that some of them started to more openly embrace as a result of perceiving this to be a "civilizational struggle".
Investigative journalists Max Blumenthal and Ben Norton exposed the dark social trends behind the Bolivian coup in their piece last week titled "Bolivia coup led by Christian fascist paramilitary leader and millionaire — with foreign support.", The article drew attention to the shadowy role played by Croatian-Bolivian oligarch Branko Marinkovic, who they wrote:
"has long been dogged by rumors that his family members were involved in the country's powerful fascist Ustashe movement."
It's a well-known fact that many former fascist fighters from all over Europe fled to South America after the war, so it wouldn't be surprising if those rumors about his family are true.
The Croatian Connection
Those journalists' investigation revealed that Marinkovic shares Anez' Christian fundamentalist views which also not-coincidentally align with the Ustashe's.
Hence, the case can be put forth that some of the former fascist fighters who fled to South America (of which Marinkovic's family might have been a part) fertilized the social soil over the past seven decades and made the revival of World War II-like fascism possible in present-day Bolivia.
Modern-day Croatia, one should be reminded, is the partial geopolitical revival of a Nazi puppet state, and it carried out the largest ethnic cleansing in Europe since 1945 during 1995's US-backed "Operation Storm" against over 200,000 members of its indigenous Serbian minority.
History has an odd way of repeating itself, and while that same scenario probably won't unfold the exact same way in post-coup Bolivia, its ethnic cleansing end game could potentially be pursued by pressuring the indigenous population to leave the cities en masse following a forthcoming campaign of state-supported intimidation against them.
"Clever" Ethnic Cleansing
This could be "cleverly" conducted away from the watchful eye of the international community through "plausibly deniable" means such as turning a blind eye towards fascist mob violence, the de-facto imposition of discriminatory hiring practices by coup-sympathizing mestizos, and the dismantlement of the plurinational state promulgated under President Morales on the basis of "removing societal divisions".
The latter isn't just purely speculative either since Anez said that:
"We want to be a democratic tool of inclusion and unity…We leave behind those times in which ethnic and class resentments which divide Bolivians are used as an instrument of political control…"
…which could be interpreted as a dog whistle to her supporters that the coup "authorities" intend to reverse the hard-earned socioeconomic and political gains that the indigenous population received during President Morales' tenure.
Affirmative action programs could therefore be rolled back on the basis that they were "polarizing the country along ethnic and class lines" in a way inimical to Anez' "inclusive and unifying" vision, potentially even making the AA programs restricted to specific territories instead of demographics so as to encourage indigenous migration back to the countryside as a first step towards apartheid.
Bolivian Bantustans
After all, to crudely paraphrase the feelings that many of the coup's mestizo supporters have towards their indigenous compatriots, the mestizos believe the Indians are "uncivilized heathens" who "deserve" to live in ethnic "reservations" that would de-facto function as a Bolivian form of South Africa's notorious "Bantustans".
Putting pressure on this enormous segment of the population to "return to their rightful homes" for both physical safety and social security after being intimidated to leave the cities and having their affirmative action rights stripped from them unless they live in specific territorial zones could eventually accomplish the dual goals of Croatian-style ethnic cleansing and the imposition of South African-like apartheid.
All the while, these Indians would also risk becoming slaves to the neoliberal-globalist system that the coup plotters are planning to impose upon the country, therefore becoming second-class citizens once again after almost a decade and half of finally experiencing freedom.
It's therefore incumbent upon the Indians to do everything within their power to put substantial international pressure on the new coup "authorities" and ensure that genuinely free and fair elections are held in order to avert this worst-case scenario before it's too late and the world stops caring.

Alt Left: Germany's Self-Abasement to the Jews – When Will It Finally Be Enough?
Germany's support for crazy US-Saudi lies about Iran is hard to figure, but it's probably just Germany sucking up to Israel the way they always do.
Germans have cucked badly to Jews for decades now, bowing in abject slavery and humiliation at the feet of the Jews in order to do penance for their Nazi crimes, which were horrible after all – let's face it.
But Jews being Jews are of course not reasonable about this, and no matter how many billions Germany hands over in extortion money to Israel or International Jewry, it's never enough, and the Jews keep agitating for more payoffs in what amounts to a blackmail/shakedown operation by the Jews.
Obviously anti-Semites are still prevalent and more or less Nazi parties regularly get 10-15% of the vote. The latest regeneration is called the AfD.
But as a whole Germany is incredibly philo-Semitic now at the state and educational level. Germany is so pro-Jewish and pro-Israel that visitors would wonder in amazement how Nazism could ever take hold in such a philosemitic land. There are ~50,000 left in Germany; a few have come back in recent years. They are treated like conquering heroes by the Germans, who fawn over them. Germany has half-built Israel's army. It even sells them nuclear submarines.
Germany's political class is constantly bowing and apologizing to Jewish interests. That's understandable for a while, but it gets old. The education system is virtually anti-German, with a focus on the horrible crimes of Germany in the 20th Century and the theory that these crimes grew out of an essential German anti-Semitic evil that apparently is genetic.
There are regular lessons in the schools on the Holocaust and on the awesomeness of Jewish people. Not to mention the usual Holocaust Museum on every corner that you find in every Jewish-cucked country, including our very own abject and abased United States.

Alt Left: The Muscadins, an 18th Century Analogue of the Modern Cultural Left
From commenter Francis Miville in response to my post about the modern Left, It's Low Wages and Sodomy! It's Homosexuals and Bicycles! – This is the Modern Left (published elsewhere – not yet published on this site yet but coming up soon).
This comment discusses a group called the Muscadins, sons of the ruling class ancien regime during the French Revolution and continuing for long afterwards. They called all working class men rapists, argued for the superiority of homosexuality over heterosexuality, attacked the people's religion by elevating Judaism and Islam over Christianity. Sound familiar?
Back then they were regarded as Far Right, which is maybe how this Fake Left (Cultural Left) should be seen. Anyway they were waterboys for the ruling class, and they were used by the remnants of the ancien regime to keep the rabble down.
From its start at the turn of the century, this Muscadin movement bullshit continued all through the 1800's – a whole century. The Muscadins even continued on into the 20th Century, when, not surprisingly, this Fake Left embraced the Nazi invaders. Because it was really Reaction in Disguise all along, just like Modern Left Frankenstein Monster is.
I also think we ought to start calling the Cultural Left because in my opinion, that is exactly what they are.
Starts here:
This modern Cultural Left has nothing to do with Left. In France the kind of Fake Left as you called it was very present during the Revolutionary period, as the popular subversive impetus had been crushed, and only the well to do's sons allowed to demonstrate. They were called the Muscadins.
They called for all-out repression against the rabble as they called it but presented themselves as the intellectual vanguard of the world by fostering practically the same causes as the same ilk now.
Their counterparts echo the Muscadins today:
Radical feminism opposing both the old Church and the proletariat suddenly described as a bunch of rapists.
The supremacy of gay sexuality on the Ancient Greek model.
Catholic-bashing in favor of Judaism or Islam.
And so many other stupidities that sound so familiar nowadays.
But these Muscadins, which would later on be classified with the incipient Romantic Movement, were never allowed to call themselves Left. They were classified at the Extreme Right of the allowable political spectrum, and remained so together with their quirks and whims for a long period.
The only thing more to the right was the now illegal Right of Royalism, which played the part of fascism as the abominable evil to be fended off at all costs. Anyway that was at the fag end of the French Revolutionary period. Napoleon was taking over as a kind of mafia don pretending to reestablish Roman civilization, and the Empire once established would no longer need the Muscadins to keep the populace at bay and destroy them though obligatory military service.
But their ideological party remained and was to linger on throughout the whole Nineteenth Century and later as a toxic breeding ground for ideas of the Extreme-Right that came to be discredited for good in 1940, as all these self-styled Muscadins ended up supporting the Nazi invaders.

Hindutvas, White Nationalists and Trump Supporters: Some Similarities
The White nationalists are obviously out and out fascists and it is not an exaggeration to say that the Hindutvas are too. The Trump supporters are not so much fascist as they are Muslim haters. Anyway there are some similarities among the three.
SHI: I think there are fundamental differences between USA right-wingers and the Hindutvadi morons. Completely apples and oranges.
While the former is mostly about anti-immigration and against big corporations, the latter are plain and simple crazy bigots and 100% mini-fascists, with Islamophobia being their only agenda. That's what I find very distressing. The level of hate they have for Muslim persons and Pakistanis is insane. Ironically, many of them don't mind Hindu Indians working in the Middle East because they send remittance money home.
Since 2007-08, India was in news for Hitler-themed coffee shops and Mein Kampf selling like hotcakes. I thought it was just a sick joke, and the people are just stupid, but the worst nightmare became a reality. It's like suddenly I woke up one day to Nazi-era Germany.
The real Nazis might be laughing at these brown-skinned posers but there is REAL CAMARADERIE between the neo-Nazis of Europe and America and the Hindutvadi Nazis. There are blogs like Bare Naked Islam and in Breitbart itself where you will find the two ideologies pump each other up.
With American White Nazis, I suppose there is still a way to reason with them. I mean they just describe themselves as race realists, which would have been just fine.
But, then you go to Breitbart, you have the other loonies to deal with: climate change deniers, Holocaust deniers, anarchists, female psychopaths, potential mass shooters, and of course, the honest two-bit racists.
I joined Breitbart for a while. I don't think this crowd does you any favors.
WHERE ARE THE NORMAL PEOPLE? LOL

Alt Left: Nothing Worse Than a Liberal Democrat
Liberal Democrat sites I am banned from:
I am banned from Democratic Underground. I have been banned from Daily Kos twice. I am usually banned the very first day I register there, typically within 24 hours. I am banned from Mother Jones. I am banned from Media Matters. I got banned from Alternet but got a new name and came back and am now safe for a while. I was banned once from (((Daily Kos))) for attacking Israel. They called me anti-Semite and banned me. All the other places banned me for attacking the Cultural Left.
Suffice to say that these are all liberal Democrat sites except for Alternet, which is more Leftist.
In other words, I am usually very quickly banned from all liberal Democrat sites, usually amidst screams that I am a Republican! Except that I'm not a Republican. I think Democrats are too rightwing. I'm a flaming out and out Leftist.
There are few things more awful than an American liberal Democrat, mostly because there is almost nothing liberal about them.
They all support US foreign policy to the hilt. They all believe every lie the media ever shoved down their throat and every lie the foreign policy wing of the state ever told them. They're flag waving patriotards.
At the moment, they are frothing with hatred against the evil Russia and the evil Putin. They all supported the Nazi Maidan coup and think Russia shot down that M-17 jet. They all hate Assad and support arming the jihadis and Al Qaeda against him and think think Assad gassed his people. And nowadays they all really hate China.
No matter what lie the state and media shove down their throat, they swallow it right up.
They reject all alternative explanations to US propaganda because it comes from Iran, Russia, etc. And they don't believe one word those nations say because those countries lie.
You throw evidence at them, like people on videotape confessing their CIA-induced nefarious acts or even actual CIA statements (for instance, half of the CIA says Ukraine shot down that M-1 7 jet), and they shoot it all down. They say that everyone that says anything that goes against the US government/corporate media one party propaganda line is lying.
Anything other evidence is unproven. It's "state your sources" and then all sources other than the US state and media are not credible. Any theories against US government and media propaganda lies are called conspiracy theories that must be subjected to the "extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence," rubric, evidence which, of course, is never enough.
The Democrats are always right and never wrong. And the Republicans, of course, are never right and always wrong. If you dare to admit that the Republicans might be right once in a blue moon, then that means that you're a Republican, and they insist that you now support Trump and are voting for him. It's pure political tribalism of the most insipid kind.
Oh, and I forgot one more thing. One thing they really, really hate, probably even more than they hate Republicans, is the Left. You know, people like me. And the Squad. And Bernie. I've always said that the Democratic Party hates the Left more than anything, more than Republicans, Hell, more than out and out fascism.
A liberal Democrat will support a Nazi before he supports a socialist. Look at how they reacted to Ukraine (supporting Nazis) and Venezuela (attacking socialists).
Bottom line is they will never admit they were wrong. And they will never change their mind, ever, about anything.
Liberal Democrats are some of the most rigid- minded, hopelessly brainwashed people I have ever met.

8chan Is Still Up
Here ya go, folks.
And you can even see the notorious pol board which has everyone so up in arms.
pol/.
I'm not sure how many boards either 8chan or 4chan have. I thought at one time that 8chan has ~1,800 boards, but I could be wrong. The main thing is that there is no such far rightwing board called "8chan." No such thing. 8chan, 4chan and the rest simply host scores or hundreds of boards ranging over every possible subject you can think of. All of the problems are coming from one of those boards, pol/, which stands for Politically Incorrect, not politics like Net "experts" say.
So really the whole problem is with one single board, which is indeed a White nationalist / White Supremacist / Nazi board.
There are some other boards like b/, which stands for Random. There are some Nazi and White Supremacist posters on there, but a lot of their enemies are on there too, and there are many people talking about things that have nothing to do with that subject. b/ is not some radical rightwing racist board. It's just a board where anyone of any ideology or belief can post whatever the Hell they want to.
But there are other boards dealing with everything under the sun. In addition, there are quite a few Leftist or liberal boards, and they absolutely hate pol/ and want it shut down. But if you shut down 8chan, you shut down all those anti-fascist Leftist boards at the same time. Get it?
Even pol/ is rather misunderstood. Yes, posts have been made announcing attacks on there, but posts have also been made on Facebook announcing attacks. I suppose you can announce a coming attack anywhere you wish on the Internet.
All such posts are taken down by 8chan quickly, and this post was taken down 15 minutes after it was posted. 8chan also cooperates fully with law enforcement in terms of turning over IP's of anyone doing anything seriously illegal on there. That was a condition of them staying up. 8chan is run by some guy in the Philippines who has no particular politics at all other than hating the government and an absolute commitment to free speech.
I saw the post that was taken down. There were several responses, all attacking the poster for his post announcing the attack. Most responses were saying "Hello FBI" or calling him a Fed.
There were a few pol/ threads after the attack that I looked over. Probably 80% of the responses were either condemning or criticizing the attacker or calling each other feds or Jews. ~20% were supporting it in some way or another, but often in a rather subtle way, like, "A Jew killed 20 Mexicans. I think I like Jews a lot more now." This was based on a mistaken idea that the shooter was Jewish.
Criticisms of the attack included people saying that they opposed murder, that the shooter killed 20 "nobodies" when he should have been killing those responsible for replacing the White race, how stupid it was for a 21 year old White man to throw his whole life away on something this stupid, how this will backfire and just result in more deplatforming and and victories for the other side, how they should be trying to convince people of their argument rather than murdering people, etc.
There were a few posts saying, "Kill feds. Kill Jews. Kill Muds." These posts were generally mass attacked as being posted by either feds or Jews.
Others were saying, "Hey look, we are in a war now whether you like it or not. You need to pick a side. You're either with us or with our enemies." These posts got a lot of criticism.
This wildly conflicted and somewhat subdued response was in marked contrast to Brandon Tarrant's shooting at the mosque in New Zealand which killed 47 Muslims. The pol/ response to that attack was wide cheers.
As you can see, the responses to these attacks even on the virulent pol/ board are all over the place, and the vast majority either condemn the attack or call other people feds.
8chan went down a few days ago, but then it came back up for a while. What you see now is a somewhat archived version of 8chan, as the last post on any board was 8 AM August 5, not quite 48 hours ago.
They will obviously come back just like The Daily Stormer did. Incidentally, the Daily Stormer has a new policy that anyone directly advocating violence gets an instant ban. It's still a ferociously racist site, but it's not openly calling for any violence.
To me shutting down these sites is a fool's errand. These people are under the mistaken impression that you can kill an idea. It should be obvious to anyone that you cannot kill an idea.
Speaking philosophically, ideas are not even objects, a constant source of discussion in philosophy. So they're not even real, actual things that you can see, hear, touch, hold in your hand, etc.
One wonders if ideas even exist at all. They are simply these nebulous things, not even objects, that float around in human brains, often going from brain to brain. They're not even on the level of an electron or quark. We can actually see that those things exist on some level.
We have no idea if an idea even exists unless some human with a brain tells us it does. Can you see, hear, touch, or hold an idea in your hand? Nope. In fact it is very hard to tell if an idea even exists at all except that someone tells us they have one in their brain, and there's no way to prove even that, as they could be lying.
I really want to know exactly how these people are going to go about killing an idea. Do they have machines that search inside the brains of all of us humans, machines that can spot all of these nebulous idea-things floating about in our heads, reading and decoding them, somehow isolating the bad ones, and then zapping the bad ones with some laser ray?
What else are they going to do? Are they going to put people in jail for having an idea? They can't. Are they going to put people in jail for propagating an idea? They can't do that either, thank God.
If they shut one site down, ten more will pop up. They will end up with an endless game of wack-a-mole. The sites will move to the Dark Web (when you go to Daily Stormer, you are going to the Dark Web), and there's no way to shut down anything down there or even to tell who's running any site or who anyone posting anything even is. Even the FBI can't crack the Dark Web, as it's un-crackable.
There are quite a few bulletin boards up all over the Net that support the Islamic State and other Islamist guerrilla groups. People working against these organizations have chosen to leave these sites up so the groups can be easily monitored. You enemy's not going anywhere just because you want him gone, and the number one rule of warfare is to know your enemy. That goes all the way back to Sun Tzu.
How do you kill an idea? You don't. But you can fight an idea, and no you don't fight an idea by shutting down everyone who has it. You fight an idea by countering its message with the opposite message, one that points out that the idea is bad and wrong and that people should abandon it for those reasons.
If White nationalism and White Supremacism, particularly in their armed forms, are such terrible things (and I do think they are wrong), the people who hate these ideas need to forcefully make the case that these concepts and ideologies are wrong and bad and should be abandoned.
There's another silly concept floating around. It's the idea that these armed White nationalists want to start a race war. I've got some news for everyone. The guys on pol/ are right. It's too late for that by a few years already. The war's already here. It's already on. It's happening right now.
You can't stop an existing entity from starting. Is it time to pick a side? Maybe so, or you can always go neutral. I will choose to oppose these maniacs because killing people because of their race, religion or ideology is just messed up. I don't agree with the morality of it.

Alt Left: The Jewish Bolshevism Nonsense
This theory is not only nonsense, but it's also very dangerous nonsense because this really is Nazism in a nutshell at its very essence. People don't realize that Nazis hated Communists as much as Jews. When the Einsatzgruppen were ravaging the Baltics and the USSR, two types of people tended to be killed on sight by these assassination squads in many cases:
And neither was favored over the other. Furthermore the lines were blurred, as the Nazis' main enemy was Communism, and Nazi theory held that Communism was a Jewish plot, and essentially all Jews were Communists who had to be killed to snuff out the Bolshevik threat.
Of course they had other reasons for hating Jews, but most folks don't Trealize how important the Commie Jews theory was in the annihilation of the European Jews.
This line went along with growing anti-Semitism on the Right in the US and elsewhere along the lines that the Bolshevik Revolution has been a Jewish revolution and that Communist Jews posed a threat to the so called Free World, which was always anything but.
This line held basically that all Jews were Communists. It wasn't true, though most European Jews in the 1930's were definitely on the Left, especially in places like Poland. Many were just liberals and social democrats though. An old line says that maybe one out of ten Jews is a radical, but five out of ten radicals are Jews. So you do the math.
While there were many Jews in the leadership positions of the early Soviet government, most Jews were not Bolsheviks. In the 1917 election before the Bolsheviks seized power, 70% of Russian Jews voted for the Zionist party.
They may have supported the Bolsheviks after they seized power, but the majority of people in the country did anyway, including a lot of the military, especially the military intelligence of the Czar's army, most of whom went over to the Reds.
I did some research on the makeup of the early Bolsheviks and there were people from all ethnic groups of the USSR. Yes there were a lot of Jews, but there were just as many Latvians, of all people, and possibly more. So I guess the Bolshevik Revolution was a Latvian Revolution, right?
There followed short lived Communist revolutions in the several years after the October Revolution, one in Hungary under Bela Kun, a Hungarian Jew, and another in Bavaria under Rosa Luxembourg and some others, all German Jews.
Kun's regime lasted only a few months, but he did kill some people, though the death count, which may be as low as 300, is much exaggerated by anti-Semites and Nazi sympathizers. But he killed just enough to scare the European middle classes.
The Bavarian government was overthrown after a few months, but the fact that it existed at all spread horror throughout the German petit bourgeois.
It was this early revolution on German soil that cemented the Nazis' belief in Jewish Bolshevism, which held that all Jews were Communists intended on overthrowing all non-Communist regimes and seizing power for the Jews over the Gentiles the world over. The theory said that the main reason the Jews wanted to do this was to get rich by exploiting the Gentile masses when they had established World Communism.
As anyone knows, nobody goes into Communism thinking of getting rich. And Communists don't exploit workers to make a profit anyway. That goes right against Marxist theory. It's nearly on the level of a transgression.
So this part of the theory was so nonsensical it is almost laughable.
But many to most hardcore anti-Semites continue to push this line to this very day, that Communist Jews are a threat to the world, want to take over all countries and convert them to Communism, thereby finally ruling over their hated Gentile enemies, while at the same time ruthlessly exploiting the Gentiles so that these Communist Jews get filthy rich under this world Communist system.
The theory is so absurd that you would think it would have no more than a limited shelf life, but its recrudescence seems eternal and vigorous. Perhaps the theory's staying power speaks more about the essential irrationality of obsessive, paranoid, conspiratorial anti-Semitism than anything else.
The Holocaust was largely driven by this belief in subversive Jewish Bolshevik Communists out to overthrow the established governments of Europe. It was a paranoid argument with no basis at the time, and it still is.
European Jews in the 1930's had little power. They held quite a few high positions in some countries, especially in Hungary and Germany, and in Germany they had acquired quite a bit of money, but they had little power in either country. What Jewish power existed was quickly overthrown by the Nazis when they came into power.
Many of the East European Jews, especially the Polish and Russian Jews, had become terribly poor in recent decades. They lived in ignorant, backwards, poverty-stricken villages called stetls. They were pathetic but they were hardly world-controlling wealthy Jewish profiteers and oligarchs. It's hard to see how they were a threat to anyone, but Polish anti-Semitism was very high anyway.
These Jews were poorly assimilated and this is offered as a reason for Polish antisemitism, but many Jews in Western Europe were much more assimilated (indeed assimilation was the laudable goal of most West European Jews).
The German Jews were the most assimilated in all of Europe. Lot of good it did them. In the previous century the assimilation was so thorough that many Jews had left Judaism and converted to Christianity, especially Protestantism.
This caused no end of problems for Nazis trying to figure out who was a Jew and who wasn't. To this day you can find many German Protestants who will tell you that their ancestors were Jewish converts to Christianity. Even in Marx's time this was quite common.

Alt Left: All That Glitters Is Not Capitalist: Various Types of Non-Capitalist Forms of Production That Work Well
Rahul:
I would argue that being pragmatic while being a communist is almost impossible. Communism doesn't work, because humans are too greedy.
A mixture of a bunch of ideologies is probably the way to go.
If you are talking about hardcore Communism with the state running everything and no market or private enterprise as in the USSR, nobody wants to go back to that anyway. Even most Communists don't want to go back to that.
But otherwise, you are just wrong. Most Communists nowadays see some sort of a role for a market. There are lots of ways to do this.
For instance, in Venezuela, various neighborhood groups and communities operate bread factories, farms, on and on. They sell the bread at a small reasonable profit to the community. The proceeds and profits are invested back into the enterprise and used to pay the salaries of the employees.
The farms and animal husbandry industries work along the same lines. A community will be organized as a commune. They will raise chickens for eggs or pigs or they will grow various crops.
They then sell the eggs, pigs, or crops to other communities for a reasonable profit. The proceeds and profits are invested back into the company, used to pay the salaries of the workers, and if there is anything left over, they are invested in the community itself – new sidewalks, new roads, a new health facility, water treatment, a community center, on and on.
The Venezuelan communes are considered to be a non-capitalist form of development.
Communists all around the world have supported this model. The Chinese Communists are operating a form of market socialism that utilizes a market mechanism. The Vietnamese Communists are doing the same. The Cuban Communists are doing something similar.
Most Communists also support the cooperative movement, where workers own the enterprise and compete against other firms, including capitalist firms. The enterprise either sinks or swims.
The proceeds and profits are best collected by a regional bank, which reinvests them in the enterprise, uses them to pay salaries, or even gives bonuses to the workers. So a very successful enterprise that made a lot of profits could end up having some workers who were making some good money if they were pocketing some of the profits.
When you give the workers the control over what to do with the money – whether to sink it back into the enterprise or to take it home as increased paychecks, workers tend to choose to take home the bigger checks. This is what happened with Yugoslavia's otherwise very successful worker self-managed Communism.
The workers would not put enough money back into the firms to keep them going, and the firms would start to deteriorate to the point where they were no longer operative. So everyone was out of a job. But no worries as everyone got a bigger paycheck!
In the Mondragon Cooperatives in the Basque Country in Spain, a similar system has unfolded and has been successful for a long time now. There, the workers elect their own management, which is a great idea in my opinion. You would think that workers would elect management that let them slide and screw off, but they elect very good managers.
The decisions about what to do with the proceeds and profits – whether to sink them back into the enterprise or to take them home in higher worker wages – is left up to management and ultimately large regional banks.
These large regional banks are the ultimate owners of all of the Mondragon cooperatives. These are public banks so they are not run on the typical profit motive. They resemble more the customer-owned credit unions in the US which give much better customer service than the capitalist banks do.
I'm not even entirely sure that credit unions are a capitalist enterprise. How can you have a capitalist enterprise that is owned by the consumers of its service? That does not seem possible.
The banks tend to make the best decisions for the firm. Keep in mind that Mondragon cooperatives utilize a non-capitalist form of development.
The problem with Mondragon is that they have to compete against capitalist firms. So all of the cutthroat behaviors that capitalists engage in to reduce costs and maximize profits – exploitation of labor, shafting consumers, investors and the public at large – means that Mondragon is forced to some extent to lower their own costs however they can to keep pace with these firms.
So Mondragon is a non-capitalist system that is still privy to the logic of capitalism in which they are ensnared.
In North Korea in the far north of the country there is a lot of private gold mining going on now in new-found reserves. They are often just one man enterprises of small groups of men working together.
The state's footprint up there is small, and the state has stepped aside and simply lets these miners mine whatever they want. They only ask for a 25% tax cut on all mining proceeds. As long as you give them your cut, it's all good. Most of these miners would not be described as capitalists.
In North Korea and Cuba there are now farmer's markets where farmers can bring their produce directly to farmer's markets to sell to the public. These are generally not capitalist enterprises. These are just farmers selling the product of their labor to consumers (other workers) buying their crops. There's no tendency to maximize profits, as the prices are set by the market.
The entire cooperative sector all around the world is a non-capitalist form of development. The workers actually own the firm so there is no exploitation of labor, which is the definition of capitalism. No exploitation, no capitalism.
In this way these cooperatives have gotten rid of the division between Labor and Capital which is the backbone of any capitalist system because capitalist systems work by marking up the products of workers' labor and then adding onto it something called surplus value when is then pocketed by the capitalist as a profit.
So a worker producing a product that is paid say $20 in labor has his product taken by the owner of the firm, which then proceeds to mark up the worker's labor cost to $25-30, and thereby make a profit. This is called the Labor Law of Value, and it has been proven to be the backbone of the capitalist system.
As you can see here, the worker is not getting the full value of the product he produced. He produced a product worth $25-30, and he only received $20 for it, with his owner taking the $5-10 surplus value and pocketing it as profit.
Independent contractors such as electricians, plumbers, painters, attorneys, physicians, accountants, etc. are not usually capitalists at all. Instead these are just workers – albeit highly paid workers – who are simply selling their labor time to others, mostly workers, who purchase their labor time when they hire them or use their services.
Middlemen and traders who simply intervene between the producer and walnuts and the seller of say walnuts, adding on their profit, are not capitalists. Those are simply traders or merchants. They are not exploiting anyone. They can be thought of as a form of workers who act as go-betweens vis a vis producers and sellers, adding their small amount on as a fee for helping to get the two together.
Finance capital or people who buy and sell stocks are not usually capitalists. These are like people who trade in rare books, stamps, coins, precious metals, or anything else.
The stocks and bonds are like rare coins or precious metals. They simply try to buy them at a lower rate and sell them at a higher rate, which merchants have been doing forever even long before capitalism. They have no employees so they are not exploiting anyone.
Music groups and other performers, authors, artists, sculptors, etc. are mostly just workers who sell their labor time as performers or the product of their labor as books, paintings, sculpture, DVD's, etc. Most of these people, even bands, do not hire employees.
Now granted the book publishers, record companies, galleries, etc. are marking up the labor time and labor products of these entertainment workers and taking the surplus value, hence they are capitalists.
A big rock music band can be thought of simply as performers (workers) who make a musical product and sell it to fans, mostly other workers, who enjoy their entertainment product so much they are willing to pay good money for it. So most bands, artists, authors, sculptors, etc. are not capitalists. They're just workers for the most part marketing their labor time or the products of their labor time.
Now granted finance capital and speculative capital, while generally not capitalist, are nevertheless regarded as "parasitic" industries because they don't produce anything.
They can be thought of as gigantic casinos in the sky (the stock market in particular can be seen this way). Speculative capital produces nothing and often has bad effects on society. Look at the wildly inflated housing markets on the US West Coast and in New York and Paris for example.
In China under what they call market socialism or socialism with Chinese characteristics, a Communist party cell sits on the board of directors of every large corporation. When corporations get a certain size the state usually takes them over in a sense. However, the managers have large leeway how to operate their company.
All private enterprises are underneath the state or the Communist Party. The CP sees the market or the private sector as a tool for the development of the productive forces. However, the capitalists are underneath the state. They have to do what the state says.
They have to adhere to 5-year plans. Yes, the 5-year plans that were said to be so devastating to the USSR and other Communist countries are working great in China.
The government, the party, and the private sector all work together on economic goals. In this way it is similar to the state capitalism of South Korea and Japan or even Nazi Germany.
That state capitalism is a non-capitalist form of development because the state works closely with the capitalists on economic goals which are supposed to serve the nation and not just the petty temporal demands of capital for maximal profits come Hell or high water, forget about consumers, workers, society, the environment or the nation.
Under state capitalism, the state controls the commanding heights of the economy. In Japan this boils down to a several huge banks which effectively run all economic development in Japan.
Nazi Germany was similar. Yes, you could have your corporation but you had to do what the state said, or they would just take you over and confiscate your firm. So the firms in Nazi Germany in effect all worked for the state.
In China, if firms do not follow guidelines and do as they are told, the state will simply go in and seize the firm, confiscating all of its assets. The state will then take over the firm or hand it over to a more obedient capitalist. You see here that the state rules capital. Capital has to do what the state says.
Here in the US, the market is not a tool for the development of productive forces. Instead it is a form of politics. In other words, the market or the corporations basically run society. The market is over the state. The state has to do what the corporations demand, or the corporations will get rid of the state and put in a new state.
The state obeys the demands of capital and not the other way around. Capital, the market, and the corporations are our true rulers in the US. The government simply acts as if they are employees of capital. The state does not rule us except to the extent that it carries out ruling directives that Capital gives to the state to enforce on the people.
In China state firms are often run by local municipalities. So if we had their system, say Los Angeles and San Fransisco might both have steel mills. These mills would then compete against each other and against private firms both domestic and foreign. It's sink or swim for all public firms in China.
Firms that are more successful see their incomes rise and more workers move to those cities to be part of those enterprises.
The workers still officially own the enterprises, but the city takes 95% of the income that the enterprise brings in in the form of a paycheck for every worker. 95% of each workers paycheck is taken by the city and reinvested in the firm or in the city itself (similar to the Venezuelan model). The workers get 5% of their check to take home as pay.
Keep in mind that this can be a good paycheck, as cities running successful firms pay their workers more.
There are large cities in Southern China with 700,000 workers where 1/3 of the population works for one of the many enterprises that the city runs. The residents of the city, who are also workers for the city, have a say in how these firms are run.
For instance, they try to fight corruption, since it hurts the firms, which hurts the city, which hurts them in the end. So the firms of the city in a sense are under the control of the people who live and work in there in the sense that their input is used to make decisions about how to run the firms.

Alt Left: A Puzzle Solved: The Main Reason for Antisemitism Uncovered
Antisemitism is caused by Jews. Antisemitism follows Jews like day follows night. A lot of antisemitism simply boils down to the fact that the Jews are intellectually superior to the White Gentiles they have always lived among.
Hence you get situations like Jews, 2% of the population, owning 32% of the wealth of Germany. No nation is going to put up with that, no matter if the money-hoarders got it fair and square or stole every nickel of it. And indeed not coincidentally, Adolf Hitler assumed power as the dictator of Germany that very next year after gaining the most votes in the prior election. Not that I am excusing the monstrosities and horrors of the Nazis. I'm no Nazi. More like the opposite. But the Nazis did not engage in their horrors for no reason at all. Most terrible things are done for reasons, usually not very good ones but reasons nonetheless.
But the sad fact is that anti-Semitism is simply the "normal", though regretfully so, reaction of of non-Jews towards Semitism, or Jewish behavior in the societies in which they live.
I will credit the much-maligned Kevin MacDonald with that particular insight. In the sense that he finally figured it out, right there, this particular antisemite, MacDonald (he wasn't one at first but he's surely one now), is smarter than every Jew who ever lived combined because he finally solved the theorem that the Jews have been pondering for 1,500 years.
Please note that when I say normal I don't mean good. Many terrible things are sadly normal, death and taxes being two that immediately come to mind. I mean normal in the sense of common as wifebeating is common and therefore "normal" while still being reprehensible.
And as I noted, much anti-Semitism simply derives from the outrage, offense, envy, and sour grapes attitude of whatever Gentiles the Jews happen to be competing with at the time. The Jews are simply a superior race, perhaps the most superior race on Earth, hence they tend to out-compete most if not all other races, obviously provoking outrage and sore-loserdum among the defeated.
The Jews' crime is being too successful! In fact, they are so successful that the races they beat get so mad about the Jews always winning the gold that they go to the envious retaliatory extreme of murdering Jews simply because they won the race and showed up the defeated losers. Jews then are so successful that they actually get murdered for their success by the envious and outraged races that they defeated!

A Look at the Chinese Model of Communism – Market Socialism
You are starting to see a lot of articles in the capitalist press bashing China now, saying their economy is not as good as they say, that it cannot be sustained, and that it is headed for crash. They base this on a comparison to other Communist countries, but those economies fell behind far before China's did.
China has sustained Communism under various forms, including presently under market socialism, for 70 years now. That's as long as the Soviet Union, and the Soviets started stagnating a long time before that. China is an example of a smashing success for a Communist country, and the capitalist press is freaking out because that shows that their anti-Communist propaganda has been crap for all of these years.
Incidentally, Deng Xiaoping emphatically stated that he was a Communist. Deng's idea was to create "a rich Communist country.". In an interview in 2005, a top party official was asked if China was still committed to spreading Communism all over the world.
"Of course," the minister beamed. "That is the purpose of the Communist party (CCP)."
Incidentally, China still has 5-year plans and the whole economy is planned. The business sector has to go along with the plan, and if you do not go along with it, they can confiscate your business. A party committee sits on the board of all large corporations. The government owns every inch of land in China. The state invests an incredible amount in the economy and also overseas where it makes vast investments. This is because some Chinese government companies are very profitable. A number of Chinese government companies are on the list of largest companies in the world.
Capitalists in the US openly complain that they cannot compete with Communist Chinese government corporations, crying that they get subsidies so it's not fair. So here we have US corporations openly admitting that they can't compete with Chinese government Communist state-owned companies.
45% of the economy is state owned and it is very profitable. 87% of all investment in the economy is made by the state. This figure includes all Chinese private investment and all foreign investment.
Much of the state sector is owned by small municipalities, and this works very well. Further, cities compete against each other. For instance, City A's steel mill will compete against City B's steel mill, and both will compete against a private sector steel mill, if there is one. Successful enterprises bring in a lot of money to the city, which it uses to upgrade the city, which results in more workers moving there, which grows the economy more with more workers and more demand.
There are also still a number of pure Maoist villages in China that are run completely on a Maoist line. Everything is done as it was right out of the Mao era. I understand that they do very well, and there is a huge waiting list to move to those villages.
I did a lot of research on China recently, and the party is literally everywhere you look every time you turn around. The party itself still runs many enterprises all over the country, especially in the rural areas. There are party officials in every village and city, and they take a very active role in developing the municipality in every way, including culturally. They have an ear to the ground and are typically very popular in the villages and cities.
Party officials lobby the state to try to solve any urgent problem in the area. The government is always spending a lot of money all over China on public works, on fixing various environmental problems, or on really any societal problem or issue you can think of. This of course includes economic development, which tends to be state-led. I read synopses of many dissertations coming out of Chinese universities, and most were on how to deal with some particular societal problem or issue. Many others dealt with technology and industry. So a lot of the research on technology and industry that is driving economic development is coming straight out of state universities.
Instead of leaving it up to the private sector to deal with the problems in society, create public works, and even plan the economy, the government does all of that. Incidentally, the way the US leaves the planning of the economy, such as it is, up to the private sector is insane. All sensible economic planning in any nation will always be done by the state with a view towards allowing the country to prosper. Capitalists have no interest in whether the country profits or not, so they engage in no economic planning at all. Leaving economic planning up to the whims of the capitalists is economic malpractice.
There are 1,000 protests every day in China. Yes, there is corruption and there are government abuses, but if protests last long enough, the party usually gets alarmed and tries to do something about the problem because they don't want serious unrest. This is party that does everything it can to serve the people and try to remain popular with citizens by giving them as much as they can and doing as much for them as possible. The party spends every single day of its rule literally trying to buy off unrest and keep its citizens satisfied.
It's illegal to be homeless in China. If you end up homeless in China, they will try to put you in a homeless shelter, or if they cannot do that, they will send you back to your village because most homeless are rural migrants who moved to the city. The state is now investing a vast amount of money in the rural areas because these places have been neglected for a long time. The state still wants to own all the land because they want to keep the rural areas as a secure base where rural migrants to the city can always return if they fail in the city.
How can a government in which 45% of the economy is publicly owned, 87% of investment is done by the state, and every inch of land is owned by the state possibly be called as capitalist country? No serious political economist anywhere on Earth considers China to be a capitalist country. The only people who say that are ideologues and liars, which includes almost all political conservatives and most businessmen.
The state spends an unbelievable amount of money on public works all over the country all the time. Many projects that in the US have "conclusively proven" to be too costly to be implemented have been done in China quickly and easily. And China's per capita income in less than 10% of ours.
Most ethnic minorities are still allowed to support their culture, and in most cases they are allowed to have education in their native language. In these areas, the native language is co-official with Mandarin.
In recent years, the Chinese government has begun to support a lot of the Chinese dialects, of which there are over 2,000 main ones, many of which are actually separate languages. Cantonese is still an official language in Hong Kong, and it is widely used in Guangdong. The other major Chinese languages or macrolanguages still have millions of tens of millions of speakers. Lately the Chinese government is telling people they can preserve their dialect as long as they also speak Mandarin. Many schools now have classes in the local dialect.
Cheap medical insurance is available and it covers 85% of costs. State medical centers are still very good. However, if you have a serious medical condition in China, you will quickly run out of money with no recourse.
This is a serious problem but it is much better than earlier in the Deng Era when millions were dying from lack of health care. However, the state still need to cover everyone. They got away from universal coverage when they moved away from Maoism early in the Deng era. In addition, tens of thousands of schools, many of which were built during the Cultural Revolution, were closed early in the Deng era.
The introduction of a market had a lot of problems in the early days. The capitalist press was cheering wildly as thousands of schools were closed all over China, medical care was cut off from or reduced for hundreds of millions of people, while millions of Chinese died from lack of medical care. This was all cause for celebration! Isn't capitalism wonderful? What's millions of humans dying from lack of health care as long as a few rich people can buy ridiculously expensive, useless items that they don't even need?
A recent good survey done by a Western polling firm found that 87% of the population supported the Communist Party. The excesses of the Mao era, especially the Great Leap and the Cultural Revolution, have been widely discussed and the party has admitted that many errors were made and resolved not to do this again. These excesses are being blamed by the party on what they call "ultra-Leftism."
The economic model of China is called Market Socialism and a lot of modern day Leftists and even Communists support it and agree that this is the way forward for the left and Communist movement. Like all words, the word Communism has no inherent meaning. It means whatever people who use it say it means. So the definition of Communism can clearly change with the times as Communists update their definitions of what the word means.
China cannot be called capitalist in any way. Their model is far more socialist than anything in any European social democracy. It also goes far beyond the US in the New Deal and of course beyond beyond the social liberalism and its more left analogue in Canada, not to mention beyond social democracy in Australia or New Zealand.
Interestingly, Japan is not a capitalist country. They don't have neoliberalism. That country does not operate on the capitalist mode of development. Instead the resemblance is, I hate to say, to Nazi Germany. Nazi Germany also did not have a capitalist mode of development. I'm not sure what you call it, but it's not capitalism. For instance, in Japan, the commanding heights of the economy, including almost all of the banks, is owned by the state.
The state still plans the economy. They plan the economy together with the business community and the state allocates a lot of funds and loans to areas of the economy it wishes to develop. There is probably a similar model in South Korea, which also is not capitalist and instead operates on a series of monopolies that are owned currently by large corporations and the government. The South Korean economy is also planned, and the plan is worked out by the government and the business sector working together.

Male Homosexuality Is Compatible with Conservatism and Religious Fundamentalism
Male homosexuality is certainly compatible with fundamentalism.
There is a lot of male homosexuality in Pakistan, but it's all undercover and hidden. This is especially true in the very fundamentalist western part where the Al Qaeda / fundamentalist types exist.
Of course Afghanistan is one of the gayest countries on Earth in addition to being one of the most reactionary, so homosexuality is compatible with Reaction. Nazism was full of gay men, and Sparta was essentially a reactionary fascist state, while being one of the gayest societies known to man.

India as the True Home of White Supremacism
Another great comment by Francis Miville:
If that is your opinion, first give up your Sanskrit name, a language elaborated by Whiter than Whites and used by White supremacists. These people are far Off Whiteness, though many of them are actually off-Whites. Off-Whites as they are generally called are the real center of gravity of all White Supremacism, as they depict their Gods rather than themselves as the perfect White ones that should prevail.
The genocide most needed to end White Supremacism has to take place where it came first from, that is to say among off-Whites, starting with the Indo-Gangetic Plain, and the doctrine best suited to perform it is Cultural Revolution style Maoism as it is still believed in by the Indian Naxalites, not Brown Nationalism. When the issue of money is not tackled in top priority as is the case with nationalism, Brown Nationalism always end up taken over by millionaires who will buy White slave girls to breed with, as Whiteness is valued as movable property even by those who dehumanize it most.
Even the fiercest traditional German Nazi White Supremacists themselves consider their Indian counterparts as purer than themselves, endowed with more desirable features, despite their skin being somewhat darker due to the sun. However darkish you may seem, you are the dirt the plant of White Supremacism keeps on sprouting from. You are the clay the statues of White idols are made from. Whites come from Northern lands such as Russia and Scandinavia, but White Supremacism originally came from India to be taught to the former, not the other way round.

Jordan Peterson: (Most) Everything He Says Is True
I really hate this guy mostly because he's a reactionary, but honestly, almost every single thing he says is true.
He's right that it's insane that you can talk to a female student behind closed doors anymore. That's insane! Way to go feminists! Way to backwards, bitches!
Sexual impropriety? What the Hell is that? Can you define it? Define it. Define sexual impropriety. See? You can't. This Orwellian concept has no definition at all. Truth is, sexual impropriety is anything a woman says it is! Isn't that great? Now we have a real definition we can all live with. I do want to know what his sexual impropriety bullshit charges are though, just out of curiosity.
Right. Women are not as interested in things as men. So women in academia are not going to be as much into those fields that focus on things. Well, that's obvious! I don't even think women like ideas very much. The airy world of pure ideation, the realm of the prowling intellectual, is pretty much a male thing. It's not that women can't conceptualize this stuff – it's more that they think it is flat out boring. I have met women with IQ's very close to mine – I recall one woman with an IQ of 143 – but she simply could not fathom why I would engage in some wild Herculean task of chopping up German into 138 languages. Why in the Hell would you even do that in the first place? Was her attitude. She was just as smart as I was, not one bit less, but her brain worked differently, being a typical female brain. Women are just as smart as we men are, but their brains work differently so they are interested in different things than we are. Which is fine of course. Vive la difference!
Of course, the more women dress up to be sexually attractive, the more they will contribute to sexual harassment (What the Hell is that anyway?) in the workplace. The more women sexualize themselves to make them look sexually enticing to men, the more men are going to be turned on by them, so the more women will interact with them in a sexual manner because they are getting turned on. I mean, it's not rocket science, right.
And yes, lipstick does in fact mirror the swelling and reddening of the labia during sex. That's why it exists in the first place. And I believe cheek blush is based on the same thing. And yes, high heels do indeed mimic a sort of estrus in females, more specifically, heels directly sexualize women by making them appear more as they do in the sex act. Which is, after all, why women wear heels in the first place. Of course.
Women are innately competitive, of course. They especially compete for men. Anyone knows that. And they compete on the basis of beauty too. I know this because women told me so. They told me that women dress up for other women, not for men. I never believed it until I heard it from them.
Of course a man has to remove about 90% of himself when he's around women, particularly in the case of Peterson, a professor who is banned from having any sexual feelings or even thoughts for that matter. I have to do it myself.
Of course politeness trumps truth with women. Any man knows that. Hell, I learned that in high school!
Of course women manipulate men sexually to advance in the workplace. Duh! Anyone knows that.
Of course makeup is sexually provocative, but I do not agree with Peterson that makeup should be banned in the workplace.
Of course there's a war on masculine behavior among boys. Boys being banned from throwing snowballs is a straight up war on masculinity itself. Even picking up snow off the ground was seen as toxic masculinity. Of course the bad boys didn't care and broke all of these stupid rules. Only the good boys obeyed the rules not to act masculine. The worst boys, who probably needed to act less masculine, were not deterred at all. So all you are doing is neutering the mildest displays of masculinity in the best of boys, putting at the back of the pack, while shoving the worst boys to the front. Good job feminists! And he's correct, in such a dispensation (a topsy turvy morality turned upside down Sadean one at that) the worst boys will get the most women and the most psychopathic males will be fathering the most children while the most decent males will father few if any kids. Way to go feminists!
Of course a transwoman is not a real woman! A transwoman is a man who thinks he's a woman. His delusion that he is a woman is so fixed that he often has surgery to try to turn himself into some sort of a fake woman, but a man is a man is a man. No man can ever be transformed into a woman. Of course not. Why would anyone think a man can be turned into a woman? That's ridiculous, I mean given our current technology anyway.
Ok this moron Peterson just compared Chairman Mao, of all people, to trans activists! How ridiculous! Mao was a puritan. The single most awful thing about Peterson is his idiotic fanatical anti-Communism. This dumbass has even covered his entire home with socialist realist paintings just to remind himself, every day mind you, even evil those damned Commies are. Anti-Communism is probably the single driving force behind all of Peterson's intellectual oeuvre. And that's where he runs right off the cliff, just like Coyote in the cartoons, following his cartoonish Roadrunner boogeyman of Communism right over the edge of all reason and sense.
And this is what I mean when I say this guy is a reactionary and he can go take a long walk on a short pier. Sure, he's right most of the time facts-wise, but his mind is just oh so wrong. He's motivated by sheer puerile idiocy and reaction. Take your anti-Communism and shove it up your ass, Jordan.
He follows online PUA's because he finds them interesting psychologically. Well, they are saying a lot of psychologically interesting things and most of what they say is flat out true. Look. Let's get real. PUA's are all about success. Men don't mess around with BS and get lost in wildernesses of psychological defenses like women do. Men's whole raison de etre is "do what works, and all else be damned." Men don't care what the theory is as long as it works. If it works and it smells like roses, fine. If it works and it smells like ordure, well, you hold your nose and plow forth anyway because if it works it works, stink or not, damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead.
These PUA's are absolutely not going to waste any time on bullshit that doesn't work. That's something a woman would do. Women would obviously waste endless time on projects that don't work simply because the ones that did work were so awful. Women would think, "That's awful, so it can't possibly work," and then focus on some feel-good solution that smells like roses but fails every time. Women aren't concerned with the destination. They're concerned about the road you take to get there. If it's a horrible road, they're not driving on it. They're taking the scenic route to feel better about themselves, no matter if it gets you anywhere or not.
The idea that these PUA's would have wasted all these years of intense study on things that don't work. Men are far too practical for that. These guys conduct nearly controlled double blind studies to test their theories.
And at the end, Peterson violates Godwin's Law by equating SJW boneheads and fools with literal Nazis. No, Jordan, no. SJW's are not Nazis. If they are like anyone, they are like Commies, and Commies are not Nazis as you probably think, you silly man.
Peterson gets an 85% rating, but when he's wrong, good God is he wrong.
