Another 23andMe Fail

In a word: hogwash. Read here. I've seen the "timeline" "data" from a number of people, and it's all been as absurd as that (or more so).   If DNAPrint as "bad," how is 23andMe better? In a gross sense it is, but in a net sense, compared to the "state of the art" at the time, and given what we should expect in 2017, and given Der Movement fantasies about absolute accuracy and precision, it's not. For majority ancestry, no problem, but for fine-grained analyses - not good at all. And when are any of these companies going to provide genetic kinship data to established ethnic and racial categories?  Of course, academic population geneticists shy away from genetic kinship data as well - after all, we can't let the rubes know who they are most related to, can we?  I mean, they might get all, like, racist on us and all.

Amren Conference: Wishful Thinking?

A useful outcome. The Amren conference (taking place right now) itself - an Alt Wrong fantasia well represented by the likes of Derbyshire and Brimelow - is nothing of great importance. But would it be too much to hope for that Greg Johnson and Richard Spencer use the opportunity of their co-attendance at the meeting to amicably settle their differences? Perhaps Johnson and Dickson could as well, but the Johnson-Spencer schism is one of the largest ones in Der Movement today and is of greater importance. Imagine the consternation of the Left if such a rapprochement took place.

Ode To Joy: Meet John McCain

A useful summary of the legacy of US Senator John McCain. Read here.   I must say, I didn't know about this incident .  Is there a statute of limitations for criminally negligent homicide?    Now would be as good a time as any to put  McCain on trial for that "accident."

Genetic Continuity in the Levant

Extant Canaanites. Read this paper: The Canaanites inhabited the Levant region during the Bronze Age and established a culture that became influential in the Near East and beyond. However, the Canaanites, unlike most other ancient Near Easterners of this period, left few surviving textual records and thus their origin and relationship to ancient and present-day populations remain unclear. In this study, we sequenced five whole genomes from ∼3,700-year-old individuals from the city of Sidon, a major Canaanite city-state on the Eastern Mediterranean coast. We also sequenced the genomes of 99 individuals from present-day Lebanon to catalog modern Levantine genetic diversity. We find that a Bronze Age Canaanite-related ancestry was widespread in the region, shared among urban populations inhabiting the coast (Sidon) and inland populations (Jordan) who likely lived in farming societies or were pastoral nomads. This Canaanite-related ancestry derived from mixture between local Neolithic popu...

Der Movement Roundup: 7/28/17

Der Movement marches on. Someone gets it right Trump is proving another theory correct: namely, that he is an incompetent and politically unreliable buffoon. He is not loyal to people who risk their reputations for him, and his promises are worthless. The wall isn’t going to be built, and Mexico isn’t going to pay for it. I seem to recall someone on the Far Right labeling Trump a “buffoon” from the very beginning.  Who was that, I wonder?  Probably just some crazy and bitter nogoodnik who should be safely ignored.  Hail Pepe!  Hail Kek!  Hail the God Emperor! Sailer channels Silver. Not a feather-in-the-cap for either one of them, I think. Some confusion about branding. The Alt Right “brand” was a White Nationalist entryist and outreach project from the very start. But the Alt Right worked best for White Nationalists by not being exclusively associated with White Nationalism. Normies would never try the Alt Right on for size if it were an exclusively White Nati...

Rotten Orange News: Behold the Buck Negger

Pathetic Trump. These days, the person the “Buck Negger” is “negging” the most is his own Attorney General, Jeff Sessions.  You remember Sessions – the anti-immigration right-winger who was one of Trump’s earliest and most loyal supporters, and who gave up a safe Senate seat to take the job that the “Buck Negger” is trying to force him out of with a campaign of withering public humiliation and ridicule. That’s the same Sessions whose elevation to Attorney General was claimed by Roissy to be sufficient to justify the “Buck Negger’s” election to the Presidency. Trump: groveling to DACA “dreamers” while attacking, in the most despicable and disloyal fashion, the most anti-immigration member of his cabinet. Mysteriously, Trump worshippers like Roissy, who squeal in delight when Trump makes off-hand comments to aging French hags, have nothing to say so far about the Sessions fiasco.  Is that a shiv too far? Read this, emphasis added: President Trump has been on a Twitter and verba...

Rotten Orange News: 7/26/17

Howdy Doody being publicly humiliated. But, but, but …Roissy says that having Sessions as Attorney General alone justifies the election of the “Buck Negger.”   Trump treats "dreamers" much better than "America's (ex)Senator." Cuckadoodledoo!

Against Game: July 2017

Against “game.” Read this excellent refutation of “game” as a worldview. In a healthy society, relative success in finding a girl for marriage is directly dependent on a man’s possession of character traits that are conducive to building and promoting civilization – e.g., conscientiousness, reliability, hard work, and intelligence. The twist here, and the source of the primary shock experienced while getting red-pilled about women, is that these are not the qualities that women find arousing. On the contrary, they are rather off-putting to them, and men for whom they are their main personality assets are seen as boring by women. That is true.  The manosphere/game crowd are essentially correct from a descriptive standpoint. Where they fail - and fails miserably – is when they start prescribing. Therefore, from time immemorial, it was seen as imperative to refuse women the freedom in choosing their mates, or at least to minimize it as much as possible. This is because the qualities ...

Multiple Nationalisms

Good points. Read this comment. …the concept of “white nationalism” is a distinctly American notion. Europeans are “British Nationalists,” or they support “Germany for the Germans.”   This argument again? Funny how few people counter-signal against “British nationalism” despite “British nationalism” itself actually being a rather artificial conflation of English, Scottish, and Welsh (and Irish even.)  Why is no one attacking “Spanish nationalism” despite the fact that “Spanish” is hardly more authentic than “American” – just look at the Basque vs. the Catalan, etc? America has always drawn on a wider European base than individual European nations.  So what? No one in America is demanding that the nations of Europe all drop their identity and become generic “white” – but apparently there is no end to the attempts to define “American” out of existence.  How eerily similar to the well known Jewish talking points: “Palestinians are an invented people” and “Whiteness is a...

Answering a "Wolf"

More permutations of "movement" stupidity. Read this. ...but count us out... My reply: We will.  Something that took me many years to learn, but which is now obvious, is that it is not possible to convince all people, or most people, or even perhaps very many people, of your views. What is more important: to convince the right people.  It is quite obvious that "radical individualists" are not the right people for racial nationalism. Also: that "radical individualists" need and want a collective tribal wolfpack doesn't quite make sense. As regards the main article: citing the Mafia as an example of a System-resistant group is ludicrous. With RICO, informers, targeted prosecutions, and sociopolitical issues, the Mafia today is a weak shadow of what it was in the past.   The idea that the "Wolves" are going to resist the government like a Red Dawn scenario is equally ludicrous.

Alt Right, Rotten Orange, and Silk Road News

Several items. I can't really disagree with certain elements of the Alt Right on this, although I would express it differently.  McCain is a despicable subhuman. But it is not "godly justice" or any other sort of justice.  McCain is old, and he's had cancer (skin cancer in that case) before. These things happen. Illness happens, accidents happens, bad things happen to people.  I'm not going to celebrate McCain's illness, but I'm not going to be a phony and pretend that I wish him well.  I do not wish him well. Interesting that the leftist cuck Trump is so hostile to the most right-wing, anti-immigration member of his cabinet - oh, yes, ostensibly for the recusal.  Also, some "alpha male" Trump is, using womanly passive aggressive techniques to humiliate Sessions into resigning, rather than just firing him and/or demanding a resignation.  Trump treats "dreamers" better than Jeff "Howdy Doody" Sessions - that should tell you s...

Genetic Variation and Environmental Interactions

Genetic variation and environment. Of interest, re: genetics, culture, and race, I note this methodology paper: Identifying interactions between genetics and the environment (GxE) remains challenging. We have developed EAGLE, a hierarchical Bayesian model for identifying GxE interactions based on associations between environmental variables and allele-specific expression. Combining whole-blood RNA-seq with extensive environmental annotations collected from 922 human individuals, we identified 35 GxE interactions, compared with only four using standard GxE interaction testing. EAGLE provides new opportunities for researchers to identify GxE interactions using functional genomic data.                     Basic findings were that environmental risk factors (e.g., substance abuse, exercise, BMI) can interact with genetic variation and affect gene expression. But the effects were modest, these were not large influences compared to other possi...

More Alt Right Stupidity

More "movement" stupidity. Getting back to a point made here , one needs to remember that Liddell has a history of fossilized "movement" ethnic fetishism, previously noted, for example here and also here. Of course, one cannot forget this either (emphasis added): Perhaps worst vice in our circles is accusing one’s opponents of being “controlled opposition” or enemy agents without adequate evidence. Mike Cernovich has said it about Richard Spencer. Ramzpaul and Colin Liddell have said it about Andrew Anglin…but calling people informants without evidence should be an absolute taboo — right up there with doxing our own people to settle petty scores — as it undermines the trust that is the foundation of every functional movement. The enemy spends a great deal of time sowing distrust in our ranks. So the suspicion of being an enemy agent should fall back on anyone who throws around that charge without evidence. They stand convicted by their own flimsy standards of evi...

Trump, NATO, and Germany

What a real "Buck Negger" would do. While the "game" faction of the Alt Right praises the "Buck Negger" Trump for humiliating the aged "First Lady" of France, and while the ethnonationalist faction praises Trump's speech in Poland, let us consider what a "blood and soil," EGI-aware Trump should have said to the Europeans: You want America to continue to be invested in NATO?  Sure we will - if and only if NATO adopts as a key mission protecting Europe from the migrant invasion and the overall threat from the Global South.  You need to obsess less over a hypothetical Russian threat from the East and focus more on the real and continuing invasion from your South.  America cannot continue a political-military alliance with nations lacking the slightest spark of self-preservation. And if angry Europeans replied: What about America being invaded from your own South? Then the terms of the debate would have shifted very nicely, don't yo...

Destructive Amoral Familism

Criminal auto-genocide. Read this. This supports my contention that amoral familism is completely different from ethnocentrism; indeed, it is incompatible with ethnocentrism and is just individualism extended to a narrow kin group.  What can be more individualist and non-ethnocentric than justifying genocide against your own ethny on the grounds that it is profitable?

Race in Der News: 7/16/17

Stupidity in der news. An Amren commentator gets dangerously close to uncovering the truth behind Silk Road White nationalism: R Sagan  American Tax Payer • 15 hours ago Don't forget that Chinese female spies are actually trained to marry White men (no joke) to infiltrate the culture and steal resources. Way to go race-mixing White guys! Chinese infiltrators are also sucking up many spots in our best universities because we need "diversity" and Asians have 300 IQs and are the model minority or whatever. Thanks cuckservatives! Chinese workers are hired by overly trusting White people, who subsequently get everything in their company stolen from under them. Way to go businessmen! Let me add: cunning Asiatrices are allowed to infiltrate White nationalism and wreck said nationalist activism for Asiatic advantange.  Way to go thirsty beta male White race traitors! See this. Looks exactly like Dolph Lundgren!  No, wait, it’s an Afro-Arab slave, who replaced real Romans, and who...

Why It Won't Work

Realism about the economic future. One often reads smug economists and other “experts” who mock Trump’s idea (real or phony) of bringing back manufacturing jobs to America, and the overall wish of Trump supporters to “turn the clock back” against the “modern global knowledge economy.” Putting aside all of our ideological biases against these elitist criticisms, let’s look closer at their practical argument: since the economic changes of America (globalism, a “knowledge-based” economy, creation and manipulation of ideas and information rather than of material goods) are inevitable and irreversible, those people not yet adjusted to this new economy must “adjust and be trained.”  In other words, all the unemployed factory workers and other blue collar workers must be re-educated and re-trained to become just like the elitists making such suggestions. I trust that reasonable and reality-based rational people understand the absurdity of such recommendations.  But let’s spell it out...

It's Der Alt Right: July 2017

Alt Right notes. Against the theory of pathological altruism. But, but, but…dem dere “high trust hunter gatherers!”  Get with the program, son!  Don’t you know there’s an official dogma?   While I think the essay is mostly on the mark, one point he’s missing is that all those cold and rude Europeans may be cold and rude only to fellow Whites, while worshiping Color. Hasn’t anyone ever had a family member who exhibits disdain for their relatives (no matter how reasonable and helpful you are to them), but loves strangers?  Xenophilia is a (White) defect that operates on all levels of genetic interests. And actually, it's not either/or.  It could be both - that certain Whites personally benefit from White Genocide and that Whites are particularly prone to produce such traitors due to lower levels of innate ethnocentrism. What is required here is honest study of the problem - not fossilized dogma nor Alt Right anecdotes. Yellow fever alert! Those Asians know exact...

Ignorant Buffoon Jr

Touchback Jr.  I essentially agree with Spencer’s analysis .  Did Jr do anything illegal?  I don’t see it. Treason?  Absurd (*).  On the other hand, let’s not let him off the hook that easily. The bottom line is that Trump Jr is as stupid and politically clumsy as his father. Do you go personally to this meeting?  Ever hear of plausible deniability?  How about using cut-outs? Or…whatever – if you are the son of a Presidential candidate who is vehemently opposed by the media and the entire Establishment, you had better at least superficially keep up appearances.  Let others, several layers removed, do the “dirty work.”  It doesn’t matter that he did nothing wrong; in politics, appearance means as much (or more) than reality. Come on, Donnie Jr was on Celebrity Apprentice with dear old dad, doesn’t he know the power of appearance? One thing Spencer could have mentioned – of all of Trump’s children, Don Jr seems the most right-wing and the most...

More on the Sino-Zionist Alliance

Anti-Silker truth. Read here. While the Silkers use yellow fever fetishism and knee-jerk anti-Semitic rhetoric to push their Asian imperialist agenda, the real geopolitical fact on the ground is the growing cohesion between China and Israel, the growing convergence between Jewish/Zionist interests and ruthless Asian expansionism. Sino-Zionist collaboration is nothing new, and Bolton’s article outlines the long history of close ties between Jews and the Chinese. Indeed, we can ask: is the superficial anti-Semitism of Silk Road White nationalism meant to distract gullible Whites from the growing Jewish-Asian alliance against White interests? After all, many “anti-Semitic hate incidents” are manufactured by Jews themselves; therefore, why not use crude anti-Semitic language to have deep state operatives infiltrate White nationalism to subvert its direction for the interests of Sino-Zionist collaborationists? The Silkers also display their fundamental dishonesty by portraying the current ...

Durocher in Der News, 7/10/17

Der Movement marches on. An analysis of race, nation, and culture in the writings of Herodotus could in theory be an interesting exercise, albeit one not directly relevant to actualizing our goals in our present (and future) reality.  Durocher’s Part I didn’t set off any alarm bells, but I knew it would just be a matter of time. Here we have Part II.  Let’s look at this self-contradictory paragraph, with the offending sections highlighted: I would argue that Herodotus’ observations are eminently compatible with a scientific and evolutionary perspective on race/genetics and ethnicity. Race is, especially in geographically contiguous land masses, typically a clinal phenomenon , with gradual change in genetic characteristics (i.e. allele frequencies) as one moves, f or instance, from northern Europe to central Africa. While intermarriage tends to spread genes, gene flow is slowed by geographical and ethno-cultural boundaries, leading to significant racial-genetic clumping and d...
