Fisking Todd Blodgett

Riposte to a buffoon (aka – answering a former Quota Queen). In all cases, emphasis added.

Laugh at this.

Let’s look at some background about Blodgett before getting to the letter.

Todd Blodgett…

With a surname like “Blodgett” you just know he got an instant free pass in Der Movement. And as you’ll soon see, you’d be correct.

…worked as an FBI informant…

Rat.

….inside the white supremacist movement.

There is no such thing.  There are very few “white supremacists” in America.  There are many pro-White activists, including White nationalists, which is a completely different type of specimen.

His political career began in the Reagan administration as a junior staffer. He helped the 1988 Bush-Quayle presidential campaign. But in the 1990s, Blodgett drifted into circles that included infamous American Nazis like Willis Carto, and “The Turner Diaries” author William Pierce.

Yeah…he “drifted.” Translation: As a NW European “WASP” type, he was immediately scooped up and elevated to high levels in Der Movement sans any real merit.

While Blodgett said he was never a “true believer,” …

There you go.  He was “never a true believer” but he was working with the biggest names in the American Far Right, including Carto and Pierce.  But, you see, you don’t need to be a “true believer” – just have the “correct” ethnic ancestry and surname.

…he helped Carto increase circulation and funding of his tabloid magazine, The Spotlight, and was a co-owner of Resistance Records, the largest white supremacist music label in the U.S. He spent time with other notable white supremacists, including Jared Taylor and David Duke.

Taylor and Duke.  Calling the Southrons!  How could they resist someone named Blodgett?  Of course, had he been named “Finkelstein” or “Chen” he may have still appealed to one of those gentlemen.

In the early-2000s, Blodgett become an FBI informant…

We’ll get an idea why shortly.

…and used his access to the highest levels of the American white supremacist community, including the KKK, neo-Nazis and the Aryan Nations. Since then, Blodgett has spoken out against white supremacy and has worked with groups like Life After Hate that rehabilitate white supremacists.

OK, a typical apostate.  But, we need more information.  

First, see this.

From March 2000 to November 2002, Blodgett was retained by the Federal Bureau of Investigation to supply information concerning organizations and individuals affiliated with the racist Far right. He regularly met with and reported to FBI and JTTF (the Joint Terrorism Task Force) agents and other officials, after attending gatherings hosted by Holocaust Deniers and White Supremacist groups, which featured racist, far-right extremists who were of interest to American anti-terrorism law enforcement officials and agencies.

More importantly, see this.

In the next four years, he would meet and work with other extremists including the notorious..

Emotional ad hominem.

…William Pierce, leader of the neo-Nazi National Alliance. After his role as a broker for Pierce was revealed in the Intelligence Report, Blodgett says his world began to collapse. In short order, he approached the magazine hoping, he said, to redeem himself publicly.

OK.  Motivation part one.  His work for Pierce was exposed, causing difficulties.  Therefore – “he approached the magazine hoping, he said, to redeem himself publicly.” Note there’s nothing there about the ideology of White nationalism being flawed, or the facts upon which that ideology is based being wrong.  Instead, he suffered personally because of System/Left social pricing, and therefore he wanted the personal damage to be alleviated.  

But…there’s more.  Now we’ll move on to motivation part two.

Blodgett: Truthfully, the answer is I was very opportunistically inclined. It was business — strictly business — and now I'm paying the price for it, and I'm not happy about it. I was stiffed by Willis Carto to the tune of about $78,000, and I'm angry.

OK. He was angry about money – allegedly he was “stiffed by Willis Carto to the tune of about $78,000.” Note once again – nothing about ideology, facts, or anything else, re: the cause being wrong.  Again, this was a personal issue. Now, a bit more about motivation number one:

My wife and my parents are not happy about the Washington Post [which ran an article recapitulating the earlier Intelligence Report story], and I want to get past that.

The personal social pricing pressure was increasing since his family was “not happy” about the whole situation, so he wanted “to get past that.”  Once again – a purely personal issue. Where’s the epiphany about the errors of White nationalism?  I’m sure any faux “epiphany” was retroactively applied later to rationalize a personal response to personal issues.

Now, let’s take a step back and discern how he got involved in Der Movement to begin with.

Blodgett: Republicans lost a lot of seats in 1990 and were kind of on the defensive and I just decided I was tired of politics. So I employed my skills as a salesman and advertising writer with a California entrepreneur who was and is the owner of Slick Times, a kind of Clinton lampoon. In January 1995, I decided to start my own consulting company.

In the meantime, Willis Carto had been contacting me to come work for him. I named a price I thought he'd never meet — $3,500 a month — and sure enough, he agreed. He also gave me an assistant.

I mean, do you need any more evidence of the "movement's" ethnic affirmative action policy? He went from “a salesman and advertising writer” and being involved with his “own consulting company" to being recruited to work for one of the leading lights of the American Far Right – and at $3,500 per month (1990s money – adjust for inflation)!  And with an assistant! That’s akin to Johnson hobnobbing with Taylor and Francis from day one, or Spencer being made the head of NPI sans any meaningful qualifications for that position.

Oh, you'll say that the "movement" interest in Blodgett was due to his mainstream Republican connections and was thus somehow merit based.  Really? First, as he himself admits, he was out of the political game when he was recruited by Carto. Second, according to Wikipedia, his initial entry into the mainstream political world was via personal connections, and his father was a politician. So, even if Carto's interest was connected to Blodgett's past foray into Republican activism, that GOP activism itself was connected to a mainstream "good old boys network" that mirrors that of Der Movement. In the end, it all conflates to ethnic affirmative action.

Now, we’ll get confirmation of another Sallisian meme – that some Quota Queens realize that what they are doing is practically hopeless, and are only in it for the money:

…there are certain people out there that when somebody speaks up for what they advocate, they give you money. Carto realized the value of espousing a lost cause: there's money in it.

And here is (according to Blodgett) Carto’s opinion of Der Movement and his role in it:

I asked him one time, "Do you really think you're going to succeed at what you're trying to do?" And he said no. He said, "It's the only thing I can do. I have no hobbies except my garden. I don't have any children." He knows there's no way he's ever going to be influential like he once was. He also once said, "Todd, the problem we have is that everybody on our side is stupid." That's what he said.

Of course, Blodgett can be lying about all of that. Perhaps Carto never said any of it.  Perhaps Blodgett's perception of Carto as being primarily interested in making money is derived from Blodgett's dislike of Carto. But it does have the ring of truth to it, at least from my perspective.

Before I begin fisking Blodgett’s letter, let me begin by summarizing the three major flaws within it.

• 1. He conflates White nationalism with “White supremacism,” which really does not exist anymore to any significant extent, and is quite different from White nationalism. Anyone who mislabels today’s pro-White advocates, including White nationalists, as "White supremacists" is being so fundamentally dishonest that their mendacity suggests to you there is little or nothing of what they say that you should believe.
• 2. He conflates pro-White activism with Der Movement, while in fact the latter is merely the currently extant vehicle for the former, akin to how the Republican Party is currently the vehicle for American conservatism. The failures of the vehicle do not necessarily reflect upon the righteousness of the cause that vehicle allegedly supports. If the vehicle is no good, it should be replaced; you need not give up on the cause itself.
• 3. The righteousness of a cause and the objective facts upon which it is based do not disappear just because a particular person becomes disillusioned with the cause and/or with the vehicle currently embodying that cause. Facts about White demographic displacement, racial reality, anti-White structures of the System, the failures of globalism and multiculturalism, and the reality of ethnic genetic interests, do not disappear just because someone is angry that they got “stiffed” for money by Willis Carto, or because the exposure of their activity upset their family. 

OK, back to the letter.

AN OPEN LETTER TO WHITE SUPREMACISTS

I once trod the treacherous path you’re traveling and it wrecked my life. Taking a detour and exiting the nasty, racist road is as much in your best interest as it is America’s. 

I do agree that it is in the interest of people to leave the catastrophe of Der Movement, but I do NOT agree that they should disavow pro-White activism (two different things; see above). Now, could it be in their selfish personal interest to drop out of activism completely? Well, would it have been in the interest of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn to never have become an anti-Soviet dissident? I suppose he would have had a more comfortable life if he hadn’t gone down that path, starting with that Stalin-critical letter that led him from the Red Army to the gulag during WW II. But would that have been in his overall interest?  Would that have led to the proper fulfillment of his life?  His destiny? His dignity and self-worth? Would that have been in the interest of his people?  What is interest anyhow?  What price interest?  And do personal interests include ethnic genetic interests? I say yes. Hence, we can see the interest, the personal interest, in being a racial advocate. Why is it, according to people like Blodgett, only in the interests of Whites, and not of other groups, to eschew racial activism? Why is social pricing, and hence the damage to material personal interests, always focused on Whites and on pro-White activism?

Further: What is America? The concept is essentially meaningless in any practical sense. What is it?  A land area where disparate groups of people live?  A nation state that has drifted away from its original purpose? An economic unit of consumers? What? A set of “ideals?” Ideals are not ultimate interests. As human beings, as evolved organisms, as people, our prime concern is with people; our ultimate interests are in genetic continuity. After all, the “ideals” are for who?  For “Americans?”  What’s an “American”?  Who are the “people” we are concerned with?  The American population is being demographically transformed.  So when we refer to “people” we can ask – “what people?”  Who?  Whom?  If a pregnant illegal alien crosses into the USA and gives birth, then that offspring is an “American citizen.” That’s an “American.” The concept of America, which has become disconnected from a distinct people, and has become unmoored from normal human interests and from basic biology, is, as I have stated, practically meaningless. The concern should be with specific people in America, viewing America and its ideals as a vehicle for meeting the needs of those people and their interests, not as a vehicle for their dispossession and destruction. Talk to me about White Americans, not of an abstract America. Thus, America has no inherent interests.  Only groups of people in America - like White Americans - have inherent interests.

And, by the way, even IF you want to focus on an abstract America and its equally abstract interests, your beloved multiculturalism is destructive to those American interests, and it brings in people who have no understanding of, or interest in, preserving the “ideals” traditionally associated with America, peoples whose presence and whose own ethnocentrism breeds racial and ethnic conflict. Even from the standpoint of abstract ideals, America is a failure, and a greater White homogeneity would only assist in preserving the ideals Blodgett allegedly cares about. So, Mr. Blodgett, you are doubly wrong.

Significant differences exist between legitimate conservatism…

Why is conservatism “legitimate?”  Because it is useless, accomplishes nothing, is part of the System, agrees with the fundamental premises of that System, and is essentially fake, controlled opposition?  In any case, we are NOT conservatives.  What is there to conserve?  I am a Far Right Revolutionary.

…and bigoted, racist hatred. 

Emotional nonsense. In any case, if you are against “bigoted, racist hatred” you should oppose that targeting Whites.

Do you hate minorities so much that you overlook the significant contributions made by Conservatives…

I oppose conservatives, moron.

…who are black, Jewish, Hispanic, and Gay, to the honorable causes of limited government, a strong national defense, lower taxes, and freedom for the individual?

All those ideals are meaningless if they are enjoyed by a different people, if MY people are race replaced.  What Whites should care about “the honorable causes of limited government, a strong national defense, lower taxes, and freedom for the individual” in a Brown America?  And even his own premise is silly, since the vast majority of Blacks, Jews, Hispanics, and Gays are leftists who oppose all of these “legitimate” and “honorable” conservative concerns. If you really cared about those concerns, then you’d want a White America, full of people who have repeatedly demonstrated a fidelity to those issues and concerns.

And anyway, the whole point of White nationalism is that we do NOT want to live in the same polity, in the same society, as non-White peoples, regardless of if they are “conservatives.” This idiot is speaking a different language than what the “white supremacists” he is addressing actually understand - they understand RACE and CIVILIZATION, not tax rates and limited government.  By the way, has conservatism actually achieved progress toward any of your “honorable” causes? No, America moves in the opposite direction, away from those ideals, because of racial demographics.

Further, these days, mainstream conservatives are called "Nazis" and attacked in the streets, GOP congressmen are shot at (e.g., Scalise), and GOP senators assaulted (e.g. Paul). Rational people see what's happening in America and view Blodgett's stupidity as either painfully naive or blatantly mendacious (and that was true when the letter was written, not just today).

If so, you’re subscribing to an agenda comprised of unadulterated HATRED. 

So, Whites defending their group interests is “unadulterated HATRED.” Other groups doing the same is wonderfully admirable, and as you note, not criticized by this buffoon, who thus, in his hypocrisy, essentially confirms the validity of the WN worldview.

The high-tech, PR-savvy…

They’re not.

…well-funded…

That’s true, although they always cry poverty.

…evildoers…

Hmmm. Call your opponents “evildoers.”  Cue Dr. Evil asking for “one million dollars.”  Grow up.

…you’ve thrown in with will alter your life in the most negative of ways – as personal experience taught me. 

So, this moron is angry at Carto over money, and he is upset that his activity with Pierce got exposed, so that’s the “personal experience” he’s talking about, that and being a FBI informant – a rat.

If happiness, stability, and success are your goals, then you must open your mind and change your heart. 

Sure! Supporting a System that hates you for your race, and practices de jure and de facto discrimination against you, and defames your race and civilization, is the road to happiness and stability.

It’s not too late to change, and your past can be a lesson, not a life sentence. The late Willis Carto – a professional White Supremacist/anti-Semite, who conjured up the fraud called Holocaust denial, and who spent 60 years promoting hatred – was my boss from 1995 to 1998. 

And what real qualifications did you have for that?  Besides being a High Truster named Blodgett? Besides being involved in the GOP due to family and other personal connections? Did you ever have an involvement in politics - either mainstream or Far Right - based purely on your own merits?

To my lasting regret, I raised nearly $3 million for his Liberty Lobby, and generated an even greater amount of advertising revenue for his publications.

With all the money floating around Der Movement, that’s no grand accomplishment.

Within a few years, my business partner was Dr. William L. Pierce – the founder of the National Alliance, who wrote ‘The Turner Diaries’. 

Affirmative action.

He and Carto were America’s leading neo-Nazis. Motivated by greed and a lust for power, Pierce, Carto, and I owned what was then the world’s most profitable, successful racist music company, Resistance Records. These facts, for which I’ve atoned, won’t ever go away.

The facts about White race replacement and the System’s anti-White racism “won’t ever go away” either.

I routinely dealt directly with sociopaths like David Duke, ‘Pastor’ Richard Butler, Erich Gliebe, and John Tyndall, and racist killers like Jamie Von Brunn, Eric ‘the Butcher’ Fairburn, Tommy Mair, Wade Michael Page, and Benjamin Nathaniel Smith, among many others. 

High Trusters!  Inner Hajnal!   

My life spiraled downward, resulting from my involvement in HATE. This included becoming a drug addict for seven+ years, getting divorced and nearly being killed in a knife fight. These tragic consequences and others could’ve been averted had I avoided the vile realm of White Supremacy, even as an opportunistic profiteer. 

Make sure you capitalize "HATE" just in case your readers are not sure of whether you disapprove or not.

What an imbecile. His personal choices, his defects, those he blames on a set of political beliefs. As if being pro-White means you must be a drug addict, and, gee whiz, you can’t find any anti-racist leftist drug addicts anywhere, much less Black ones, right? Only White activists get divorced and, of course, there's never been Whites knifed by racist criminal Negroes.  Bad things happen to people only if they are pro-White, and don't you forget it!  This guy’s “logic” and his writing style (“vile realm of White Supremacy”) is akin to that of a not-too-bright twelve year old girl.

Monitoring haters for the FBI as a full-time, paid informant…

Note - paid. Being on the side of the angels, against hate wasn’t enough. Like Judas, he wanted his thirty pieces of silver.  Betrayal for a price.  Take that, you cheapskate Carto!

…opened my eyes to the insecurity of most of those who were brain-washed into the counterproductive, evil world in which you’re now ensconced. 

Pure projection. All these apostates are insecure, personal defectives and failures, who get involved in the cause for the wrong, almost always personal, reasons, and leave for the same bad reasons. You’ll note that nowhere in this screed is any sort of reasoned, analytical rebuttal of White nationalist beliefs. It is all emotion, all personal issues, and all superficial leftist buzzwords.

Seeking personal redemption helped me realize a better life was, indeed, within my grasp. I slayed my demons, beat drug addiction and got my life back on track. You, too, can do this! Walking away isn’t hard, but remaining with hateful, violence-prone, racist losers will ruin you.

One basic problem with the “movement” is that is full of drug addicted, illogical, hysterical losers like Blodgett, who have NOTHING going for them but their ethnicity.

Removing your Swastikas, covering up racist tattoos, replacing Doc Martens boots with pricey athletic shoes and wearing tassled loafers, Polo shirts and khakis, and calling yourselves “identitarians” instead of neo-Nazis, fools no one. 

As if most WNs were like that. I thought stereotyping was "bigotry?"  By the way, if "no one" is being fooled by pro-White activists, why do you and your handlers worry so much about those haters?

If your ideas were sound, you’d not need to engage in such chicanery. Got it?

Pure projection.  If YOUR ideas were sound, you’d need not write a long screed that contains ZERO substantive content, and is nothing but “being an activist made be angry and unhappy, so it is bad.” Got it?  Your mendacity fools no one.

Question - if WN ideas are so unsound, then why are they repressed by the System/Left instead of debated and refuted?

I hope and pray you’ll turn your life around, and that you and all misguided activists leave the milieu of organized Hate. 

Join the System that hates you and is destroying your race and civilization. That'll turn your life around. Just make sure you're paid for it, amirite?

Those who admit they were wrong are in a great position to help make things right.

Yes, make things right by being a PAID informant.  You may as well make a buck when you “make things right,” eh?

Like many who are now wasting their lives in this putrid, so-called Movement, I’ve been jailed. More than once. 

Was that a direct result of your prior beliefs? If not, it is irrelevant.  If so, being jailed for your beliefs means that the anti-System worldview of WNs has validity – the System is repressively anti-White. Either way, you're wrong. And if you were jailed because of activity you did that was somehow connected with your work for Carto and/or Pierce, that's either on you - a mistake you made - or it is diagnostic of a repressive System (or both).  Either way, you're wrong...again.

But whether or not you’ll ever be locked up, as long as you harbor hateful, anti-Semitic, bigoted thoughts, you’re locked in a hellish jail of your own making. 

Huh?  Having a set of political beliefs is not a “hellish jail.” The real “hellish jail” is not the straw man of “hateful, anti-Semitic, bigoted thoughts” but instead it is the reality of multiracial America.

So, set yourself free; unlock your mind…

Yes, reject the System and embrace White nationalism. That's my prescription, although I'm sure that's not exactly what Blodgett has in mind here.

…and banish hate from your soul. 

Tell that to those who hate Whites.

Having learned this the hard way, it’s easy for me to see where you’ll end up, unless you alter your thinking and change your ways. 

Don’t blame a set of political beliefs for your personal inadequacies.

You CAN get your life on track, even if it wasn’t previously all that cool. It’s easier than you think, and you won’t regret it. Trust me, I know.

In summary, Blodgett is a meritless defective Quota Queen loser, elevated in Der Movement because of his High Truster ancestry, who left Der Movement for purely personal reasons, became a paid FBI rat, and now justifies his pathetic life by preaching to us as if he had a grand epiphany. But, hey, trust him...he knows. He knows how to be a useless asshole.

Once again – there isn’t a single substantive, objective argument against White nationalism in that letter.  Not a single one.  Nothing. It’s all emotion.  It’s all the story of a pathetic defective, by his own admission not a “true believer,” who got involved in the cause for all the wrong reasons, left for personal reasons, became a PAID FBI informant, and now spews girlish tirades – Evil! Vile! Hate! – assuming that all WNs are as defective as he was (and likely, still is), and will become ever-so-happy if they ditch their beliefs – ideas that he has no actual arguments against – and become more System zombies.

What a buffoon.

It is obvious to the reader of this post that I was rather irritated by Blodgett's letter; the combination of emotional non-argument, illogic, and empty platitudes was just too much to take. The disturbing question is this - how many people like this are there in Der Movement today?  How many are not true believers, how many are FBI informants, grifters, drug addicts, or other types of defectives? Then we have the Hermansson case, which demonstrated how easy it is for even a non-government actor to infiltrate pro-White activism; Der Movement is lucky Hermansson was only a (relatively) short-term information-gathering infiltrator and not a long-term mole. With his ancestry and ability to make high-level "movement" connections, he could have risen to a position of some influence, and did considerable damage.  His sexuality, as we can observe with others, would not have been a hindrance for this (I wonder if his sexuality was known by any of the "movement" people he interacted with during his infiltration).

One wonders if such moles currently exist and how high in the "movement" hierarchy are they?  Who are they and what are they doing?
