Der Movement in Der News, 6/26/20
Sallis right again.
From a Counter-Currents article, I was alerted to this Amren book review. The review is fine as far as it goes, but it ends on an interesting note (emphasis added):
Author Marisa Abrajano, whose origins we can only imagine from her name and appearance, teaches political science at UC San Diego. Zoltan Hajnal also teaches at UC San Diego. Zoltan is a Hungarian name, so it’s unlikely his ancestors came over on the Mayflower. White Backlash is published by Princeton University Press.
This is the perfect symbol for our degenerate times. Foreigners tell the American founding stock how benighted and deserving of oblivion we are, and are published by one of the country’s most prestigious academic presses. We have work to do.
Now, if Abrajano is some sort of Hispanic, that individual’s ethnic activism in favor of “Latino” immigration makes sense. But note the implication that White Americans of Hungarian ancestry are also “foreigners” who are, naturally, expected to “tell the American founding stock how benighted and deserving of oblivion we are.”
That’s quite remarkable. First, all it takes is irritation over an obnoxious book to let all of the Anglo animus toward White ethnics come flowing out. Brotherhood of Europeans indeed! Second, is there any evidence that Hungarian-Americans in general harbor grudges against America’s founding stock and wish to tell them “how benighted and deserving of oblivion” they are?
On the other hand, there is voluminous evidence that Jews, in general, actually do have such attitudes, and have actively engaged in anti-White and, more specifically, anti-Anglo activism for a century or more (e.g., see all of MacDonald's work on that issue). But alas, if “Zolton Hajnal” was instead named “Moshe Finkelstein” we can very much doubt that the same comment about “foreigners” would have been made in that case. And, did the ancestors of “racial status quo” Weissberg and “multiracial White separatist state” Hart come “over on the Mayflower?”
It has been the contention of EGI Notes that Der Movement has nothing to offer to White ethnics (and here “White” excludes Jews), and Der Movement does nothing but continue to support that assertion.
Side note – Hey! I thought that the “HBD race realists” loved anyone named “Hajnal.” Isn’t “Hajnal” a holy name among HBDers?
Then we have VDARE’s recent problems with web site hosting. Readers of this blog, knowing my frequent harsh criticism of VDARE and Brimelow, may be surprised that I fully support VDARE in this case (*). But you should not be surprised, since I am a vigorous supporter of free and unfettered expression, and my vision of the Internet is as an open marketplace of ideas - a “free for all” where views are openly aired and critically examined. VDARE should be able to do their thing, and I mine, and then we’ll see who makes the better arguments.
Indeed, it are some of my cowardly critics who are the ones afraid of free debate, not me.
And I do not want to hear excuses for web hosting companies that “they are privately owned entities and can do what they want.” Besides the fact that these companies form a de facto monopolizing cartel, the fact is in today’s America, people do NOT have the right to do with their private property what they want. If you are a real estate property owner, try advertising rent to “Whites only” and “no Blacks allowed” and then get back to me about “private entities can do what they want.” And don’t give me nonsense about “immutable categories” being protected either, since, even if we disregard evidence of a genetic basis for political views, the fact is that religion is also an officially protected category as well in the sense that you cannot rent to, say, "Protestants only" with “no Catholics or Muslims allowed.” Religion is not immutable or else converts and apostates would not exist. With respect to “identity,” for many people politics trumps religion, so that’s no excuse either.
*But perhaps if those hundreds of thousands of dollars per year had instead been going to build a legal infrastructure and free speech-friendly web hosting, this problem wouldn’t have occurred in the first place.
