The IQ-ist Creed

Responding to a critical comment from a reader, Vox Day, aka Theodore Beale, wrote:

If you are a Gamma, or even have Gamma tendencies, you simply must learn to resist the urge to correct others, particularly those who are more intelligent than you are.

The implications being, first, that people of only moderate intelligence, i.e., IQ,* are essentially incapable of sound judgment on anything, and that certainly a person of IQ x cannot under any circumstances know better than a person with an IQ that is greater than x.

That, in a nutshell, is the IQ-ist creed. It is the notion that, based on a a 20-minute, paper and pencil test of verbal and numerical facility, everyone can be ranked in a linear hierarchy of intelligence. The IQ test thus provides the technocratic means to implement the Fascist leadership principle. Authority is exercised from the top down, rank being determined by IQ, without feedback or objection from the bottom up. 

There are, however, a few problems with this approach as the Axis powers discovered during WW2. Thus, for example, however intelligent the leadership may be, it may also be criminally insane, which means it has potentially bad consequences for everyone who accepts its commands. There will, of course, be bad consequences for those who refuse the leadership's commands however obviously insane, since the leadership principle requires unquestioning acceptance of the authority of the leadership (see boxed quote above). 

There are other problems with the Fascistic notion that those of high IQ are inevitably right in any dispute with those of lower IQ, the first being that that notion is obviously false. Smart people make errors of judgement all the time; know little in relation to the sum total of human knowledge; and are far from consistently honest. Furthermore, when smart people make mistakes, tell lies, or go bonkers, it may require no exceptional intellectual power to recognize the fact. Therefore, the notion that a person of ordinary intellect cannot criticize someone eligible for membership in Mensa, the club for people of high IQ, is absurd. 

One could go on. For example, Mensa members tend to have an abnormally high incidence of mental illness, suggesting that high IQ and good judgement are not necessarily well correlated. Then there is the fact that IQ measures none of what are, in the common acceptation of the term, considered to be facets of intelligence: judgment, for instance, wisdom, wit, sense, insight, intuition, giftedness or talent. This alone should make one wary of any scheme for ranking all humanity on a single scale of intelligence. To do so would almost certainly have prevented the likes of Johann Sebastian Bach, van Gogh, or Richard Feynman pursuing the careers in which they were able to demonstrate at least a modicum of real talent, i.e., intelligence, undemonstrable by means of an IQ test.

*Vox Day apparently holds to the IQ-ist notion that a 20-minute paper and pencil test of verbal and numerical facility provides a comprehensive measure of intelligence.

Headlines That Tell the Whole Story: No. 79

The Dems don’t want Trump to have a win on his signature policy [of building a wall], because they figure that will cement his re-election. Everything else is noise

In the unlikely event you see any point in reading the story, here's a link.

And here's another one:

Quote of the Day, No. 79: The Problem with Krauthammer's Fundamental Law

Here's a post by the Maverick Philosopher with which it seems hard to disagree.

Krauthammer's Fundamental Law

Here is Krauthammer's Fundamental Law:
To understand the workings of American politics, you have to understand this fundamental law: Conservatives think liberals are stupid. Liberals think conservatives are evil.
It's cute and clever, a nice piece of journalese, but not quite right, although it gets at part of the truth.

Krauthammer's 'law' conversationally implies that conservatives do not think that contemporary liberals or leftists are evil. But surely many of us do. Leftists routinely slander us with such epithets as: sexist, racist, white supremacist, xenophobic, homophobic, Islamophobic, and so on. This is morally vicious behavior and to that extent evil. My view is that many if not most so-called liberals are not good people. You are not a good person, for example, if you routinely dismiss legitimate concerns for the rule of law in the matter of immigration by accusing conservatives of having an irrational fear of foreigners. That is a vicious refusal to take conservatives seriously as rational beings and address their arguments.

A second problem with Krauthammer's 'law' is that intelligent conservatives do not think of most liberals as stupid but as having the wrong values, or, when they have some of the right values, not prioritizing them correctly. Generally speaking, political differences reflect differences in values and principles, not differences in intelligence or 'information.'

There is one point, however, that I would question.

The MP states:
Leftists routinely slander us with such epithets as: sexist, racist, white supremacist, xenophobic, homophobic, Islamophobic, and so on. This is morally vicious behavior and to that extent evil.
But is this morally vicious, or is it simply evidence of an incapacity to think? Indeed, is it not the case that through the program of PC indoctrination led by schools, universities, legislators and media, the heirs to Western civilization are no longer, in a civilizational sense, Westerners or even civilized.

Having lost the essential ingredient of Western civilization, namely, the capacity for rational thought, we have largely substituted memes for arguments. That is not morally vicious, it is merely pathetic. We have become like a band of chattering monkeys, capable of settling a dispute only by the verbal equivalent of throwing shit.*

And if that is the case, then disaster surely looms, for a people unable to think, cannot long survive.

Daily Mail: Fertility rate for white women plummets BELOW the limit needed to maintain the population in every single US state
Fertility rates for white women were down in every US state in 2017 - below the rate needed for the population to replace itself, a new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reveals.

However, among black and Hispanic women, fertility rates were up in 12 and 29 states, respectively.

When researchers looked at fertility rates for women of all age groups and races, they found that the nationwide rate was 16 percent lower than what is considered the level for a population to replace itself.

Experts say this is likely due to the fact that the large proportion of native-born women are having fewer children than before, while the much smaller proportion of immigrant-born women are having more children.

The story is the same for Europe but worse. Worse for the European race, that is. The Germans, the Italians, the Hungarians and sundry other Europeans fuck to hardly any productive effect, poor brainwashed, politically correct, self-genociding dupes. 

But, hey, we gotta have more girls' education, more girls in our front line fighting forces, more girl fire fighters, more girls running the big corporations and sitting on executive boards, more rights for queers, more transgenders, this last to be achieved, as necessary, by surgical and chemical means. The fact is, unless guys start having babies it's game over the Euros 'cos girls are just too busy doing the big jobs that white guys no longer have any right to hold.

And more children? Oh God no! Humans are a plague on the planet, at least white humans, you know, the privileged race. No, Whitey is slated for extermination. What do you think sex "ed." is all about other than to exterminate the white nations of the world. Meantime, no African nation is so stupid as to indulge in such self-destructive bollocks, they just go on multiplying, doubling their population every 30 years. 

Not for white genocide? But that's what the media you absorb every day have been telling you for years. You know, the trusted names, Time Magazine, the Economist (LOL), the BBCMacleans, the Atlantic Monthly, the New York Times, the Globe and Mail, the Gruniard.

And it's what the school your kid goes to, assuming you have a kid, teaches: whitey is a disease on the face of the planet and must be eliminated by mass immigration, racial mixing and lethal propaganda. Diversity is good, except the white part of it, obviously. For whitey metissage is an obligation.

Same for Western civilization: it's gotta go. Christianity is the root of all evil, together with every other manifestation of Western culture: Shakespeare to be removed from the Eng. Lit. curriculum, Kipling a despicable racist never to be mentioned in polite society, Jane Austin to be removed from public libraries.

Either the Western nations get rid of the Treason class: the Mays, the Merkels, the Microns, the Clintons, the Obamas, and Justin, Canada-is-not-a -nation, Trudeau, or they die.

Vive les gilets jaunes.

My Plan To Destroy America

The following remarks have been attributed to Dick Lamm, former governor of Colorado, 1975-1987:

1. We must first make America a bilingual/bicultural country. History shows ... that no nation can survive the tension, conflict and antagonism of two competing languages and cultures. It is a blessing for an individual to be bilingual; it is a curse for a society to be bilingual. …

Scholar Seymour Martin Lipset put it this way: “The histories of bilingual and bicultural societies that do not assimilate are histories of turmoil, tension and tragedy.”

2. I would then invent ‘multiculturalism” and encourage immigrants to maintain their own culture. I would make it an article of belief that all cultures are equal ... there are no cultural differences that are important ... and the black and Hispanic dropout rate is only due to prejudice and discrimination by the majority. Every other explanation is out-of-bounds.

3. We can make the United States a “Hispanic Quebec” without much effort. The key is to celebrate diversity rather than unity. As Benjamin Schwarz said in the Atlantic Monthly recently: “… the apparent success of our own multiethnic and multicultural experiment might have been achieved not by tolerance but by hegemony. Without the dominance that once dictated ethno-centrically and what it meant to be an American, we are left with only tolerance and pluralism to hold us together.”

Italian Deputy PM Calls French President Micron a "Lab Mouse"


"ITALY’S Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini has accused French President Emmanuel Macron of keeping the power from the people and in the hands of the elite, less than 24 hours after he said the young centrist was to blame for the “yellow vest” protests that have unnerved Paris.

The young centrist is struggling to curb a wave of violent protests that have rocked his administration to its core, and forced him to scrap a planned carbon tax and up salaries. Mr Salvini, head of the far-right League party, has repeatedly locked horns with Mr Macron over immigration policy, and has jumped on the anti-government protests rattling France as proof the French leader is out-of-touch and arrogant. He said in Rome yesterday: “The ‘yellow vest’ crisis shows that the French have finally understood that their president, Emmanuel Macron, is nothing but a ‘laboratory mouse’ elected to keep the [elitist] political system in place."

In a thinly veiled reference to his conservative ally Marine Le Pen’s defeat to Mr Macron in France’s 2017 presidential election, he added: “That Macron was a lab-made product invented to block change just as it was looming in the horizon now strikes me as obvious."

Mr Salvini further twisted the knife, mocking Mr Macron’s efforts to position himself as the de facto head of Europe. He said: “Let me remind you that until a few months ago, Macron was seen as the champion of the new Europe by all of Italy’s leftists.

He was Europe’s new genius, Europe’s new saviour… But they had it all wrong, again."

Quotes of the Day, No. 79: James Delingpole on Michael Gove and Other Thereason May Brexit Sellouts

"never forget that whatever gibberish comes out of the mouths of our MPs – even ones we once thought we could rely on, like Brexiteer-turned-Mayite-sell-out Michael Gove – is just the delusional ramblings of a cowardly, self-serving, career-safe, unprincipled, spineless governing elite long, long past its sell-by date."

James Delingpole

"The Chinese may well have discovered the dark side of the Moon, and the Germans a third gender, but there is no end to the dangers discovered by those who would like to stop Brexit. Their latest blag is the repetition of the term ‘forty per cent’. It offers some relief from the mathematically dyslexic 48% of two years ago, but as always it is being used as a rhythmic (perhaps even algorithmic) chant designed to terrify the the commercially gullible among us. The Sky anchor today had a field day with it, but was unfortunate enough to find himself tackling a smiley but no-nonsense Tory lady MP who made him appear to be a moron – which he probably is.

A: But Michael Gove says we may face tariffs of 40%.

TL: Michael is a great friend but he is quite wrong about this, bec….

A: Yes, but 40%.

TL: I cannot imagine the German car industry wanting to face retaliatory tariffs of 40%, given…

A: “Yes but under WTO rules we could have 40% slapped on our exports.”

TL: Australia has been trading under WTO rules now since 1977 and it doesn’t face 40% tariffs from anyone….

A: But 40% is allowable under WTO rules.

TL: It is frowned upon by WTO rules. We have an enormous trade with the United States, and we do not face any 40% tariffs except those set in retaliation against the European Union…..which we are leaving….

A: Yes but 40% would….

TL: Look, trade is a two-way thing….Ireland wants to buy our beef and we want to buy their Guinness…..

A: So why did Michael Gove….

TL: I am not Michael’s keeper, but Michael is a huge supporter of the Prime Minister’s exit deal, and as such I would expect him to support her arguments."

MH17 Turnabout: Ukraine’s Guilt Now Proven

By Eric Zuesse

Strategic Culture Foundation, December 31, 2018: Finally, a clear and convincing — and unrefuted — case can now be presented to the public, as to precisely whom the guilty party was, that downed the MH17 Malaysian airliner over Ukraine on 17 July 2014, and why it was done. The complete case, which will be fully documented here, displays unequivocally who needed the MH17 murders (of 298 persons) to be perpetrated. This mass-murder was done for one leader’s very pressing obsession. For him, it simply had to be done, and done at that precise time.

The full MH17 case will be presented here, to be judged by the public, because no court of law which possesses the power to bring this (or even any) case on the MH17 murders, is willing to do so, and because the evidence in this 17 July 2014 case has become overwhelming, and is unrefuted. This evidence is accepted by both sides. But it still remains effectively hidden from the publics in the United States and its allied countries. (The present news-report, which is the first ever to present this entire case, is submitted to all news-media in English-speaking countries, so that any of them that wishes to provide its audience access to this uncontested and conclusive evidence in the MH17 case can do so, by publishing this article. Any of them that won’t, don’t want their audience to have access to the conclusive evidence in this case, because this article is being made available to all of them to publish, free of charge; so, there is no other reason not to publish it.)

The complete evidence will be described, and all of the conclusive evidence is linked-to, proving who perpetrated, and who demanded, the shoot-down on 17 July 2014 of the Malaysian airliner MH17.

Darwinism in the Service of White Genocide

Vox Day has an excellent post showing the humbug of the globalist shills for open borders. He writes:

It's strange that scientists expect people to be concerned about the threat invasive species pose to the native squirrel population, but not the native human population.
Meet 9 Creepy Species That Pose Greatest Threat to Europe

Scientists have identified 66 species of plants and animals that pose the greatest threat to biodiversity and ecosystems. These species, entering and falling into new territories, displace the local flora and fauna.

Scientists considered eight species to be the most dangerous, another 40 to be high-risk, and 18 others to be medium-risk.

Species considered by the team of researchers included plants, terrestrial invertebrates and some marine and freshwater vertebrates and invertebrates.
This is just additional evidence that even those who affect to believe in evolution by natural selection don't really believe in it.

But I fear, indeed I have no doubt, that far from failing to understand the implications of Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection, the globalist cucks have instigated the migrant invasion of the European homelands to achieve white genocide.

How the Banks Rob Your Savings of Value by Printing Money and Creating the Inflation that Drives Up Housing Costs that Force Millions Into Debt Slavery


The end of democracy and the defeat of the American Revolution will occur when government falls into the hands of lending institutions and moneyed incorporations. 

Thomas Jefferson
Banks create money out of thin air by creating loans.

You get a mortgage for, say, half a million, and the bank adds $500,000.00 to the balance in your account. Where'd that money come from? Nowhere. The bank just created it with a book-keeping entry, and now it's charging you interest on the strength of that book-keeping entry. Let the banks keep creating their own money and soon you've got real inflation.

From the graph below, you can see that the Canadian money supply has grown at the rate of around 7.5% a year for the last 30 years. The Canadian economy, however, has grown at the rate of only around 2.5% a year. So monetary inflation has exceeded economic growth by about 5% a year, meaning, very roughly and ignoring many complications, that what cost a dollar in 1990 will cost around four dollars today.

Good business, banking, innit. Create money at no cost and lend it to the suckers at interest. The suckers spend the money, thereby driving up prices, which creates the need for more borrowing, so more money creation and ever bigger bank profits.

Why the Diversity Cucks and Death-to-the-Nation Globalists Are Headed for the Trash Heap of History

As Thereason May, the fake Brexiteer, and leading British war criminal, Phony Blair, strive to keep Britain chained to the Yellow-Vest-infested European Disunion, Theodore Beale explains why it's game over for the diversity cucks and globalist con-men.

Once you figure out that the other side really, genuinely, and truly wants to destroy your religion and your race, only the suicidal and the delusional will persist in trying to "come together" and seek to "discuss our differences". You can brag about being anti-racist, apolitical, post-ideological, colorblind, or even apathetic all you like, but once it finally registers that the other side is literally hell-bent on destroying everything and everyone you value, it's no longer possible to continue lying to yourself.

I saw this in a microcosm in my interview with Bleeding Cool editor-in-chief Mark Siefert. He simply could not, and would not, believe what I was telling him about the SJWs in comics. He insisted that there must be a place at the table for everyone, that it didn't have to be war to the knife. I assured him that he was wrong, and that the SJWs could not be reasoned with, and the next day, he discovered the truth when he was ejected from his position by the very SJWs he'd been defending as reasonable the day before.

The cuckspace is shrinking. The middle ground is rapidly vanishing and nothing is going to bring it back. There is nothing to bring it back, because diversity is, quite literally, disintegration. It won't be long before those who believed they were morally superior for denouncing nationalists as fascists and Nazis will be crying for those nationalists to save them... if they are not proclaiming themselves to have been nationalists all along.

The real lesson of the Spanish Civil War is this: you will not save your nation without fighting for it.

The Return of Louis XVI: Emmanuel Macron, Roi de L’Ancien Regime

Martin Sieff

Strategic Culture Foundation, December 29, 2018: It is easy to imagine ridiculous young President Emmanuel Macron of France as his fellow-free trading liberal King Louis XVI. Macron’s extraordinary pretensions to regal “dignity” and to god-like authority, far from elevating him have stripped him of all the bogus credibility that the corrupt, servile and stupid mainstream media of Europe and the United States tried to give him.

Far from raising the embattled Fifth Republic to new heights of achievement and success, it is already clear that Le Jeune Macron is destroying it. The contrast with the founder of the Republic, the great and truly regal Charles de Gaulle could not be greater.
