The Speaker Syndrome

Of interest.  Emphasis added.

Some background.

Speaker apparently was a member of the KKK when that organization’s main focus was animus toward White ethnic Catholics:

By contrast, Speaker-Cobb-Rogers Hornsby biographer Charles C. Alexander, a Klan expert in his general history writings, told fellow baseball author Marty Appel, apparently referring to the 1920s (Anson died in 1922), “As I’ve suggested in the biographies, it’s possible that they [Speaker, Cobb and Hornsby] were briefly in the Klan, which was very strong in Texas and especially in Fort Worth and Dallas. The Klan went all out to recruit prominent people in all fields, provided they were native born, Protestant and white.”

Speaker’s hatred toward White ethnic Catholics was well known:

During the 1910s, the Red Sox were beset by a religious rivalry, and members of the Golden Outfield were not immune to this. Lewis and catcher Bill Carrigan were leaders of the Catholic faction, while Speaker, pitcher Smokey Joe Wood and third baseman Larry Gardner were leaders of the Protestant faction.

Later, Speaker was noted to be contemptuous of Joe DiMaggio.  And Speaker's criticism of DiMaggio was not the justified analysis of loutish behavior, but nonsense about DiMaggio's defensive prowess.

However, when it came to Blacks and Jews:

In an article in the July 1952 issue of SPORT, Speaker recounted how Veeck hired him in 1947 to be a coaching consultant to Larry Doby, the first black player in the AL and the second in the major leagues. Before the Indians had signed Doby, he was the star second baseman of the Newark Eagles of the Negro Leagues. A SPORT photograph that accompanied the article shows Speaker mentoring five members of the Indians: Luke Easter, Jim Hegan, Ray Boone, Al Rosen and Doby.

Doby and Easter were Black.  Rosen was a particularly unpleasant ethnocentric Jew.

Also:

…Speaker was a staunch supporter of Doby when he broke the American League color barrier, working long hours with the former second baseman on how to play the outfield.

Speaker was therefore a perfect example of a certain strain still extant in Der Movement today. The main enemy, the main target of hatred, are European-derived White ethnics. Blacks are to be catered to and groveled to, assisted in their invasion of White niches. Arrogant Jews are also to be catered to.

By the way, later in life, Cobb groveled to the Negro as well.  

So, "they have to go back" - and by "they" Der Movement means the White ethnics, and not the wonderful Blacks and Jews, and certainly not East Asians, whose women will "ruv the Alt Right, ruv them a rong, rong time."  That's a "rite of passage" in the Alt Right, after all.
