But Good riddance to the Beeb: let those delusional Euros pay for their own lies.

In Virginia, Where Infanticide is Called Abortion, the Murder of Western Civilization Continues Apace

Breitbart: Gov. Ralph Northam: Aborted ‘Infant’ Saved if ‘Mother and Family Desired’

Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam said Wednesday that a bill introduced in the House of Delegates that would allow “abortion” even during childbirth itself would permit an “infant” to be “delivered” and “resuscitated, if that’s what the mother and the family desired,” until the physicians and mother discuss what to do.

So if the mother and the family do not desire that the child be "resuscitated," then the infant will be "aborted" by the denial of life-giving care — if not by more direct means, such as slicing its spinal cord.

But why, is the denial of care called "abortion"?

For the simple reason that under American law abortion is not a criminal offense, whereas killing a baby is murder.

And why does the Governor emphasize the wishes of the mother? Because, under the law, killing a newborn child by the mother is considered a lesser crime than murder. Of course the killing is not by the mother, but by making it dependent on maternal consent has the intended effect of suggesting that the killing a necessary clinical procedure, for the good of the mother you understand, not a capital crime.

Or as we wrote before:

The [Very Lethal] Values of a Liberal Society

After-birth abortion: why should the baby live? is the title of an article in the current issue of the Journal of Medical Ethics by Alberto Giubilini, of the Universities of Milan and Melbourne, and Francesca Minerva, of the Universities of Melbourne and Oxford.

The paper is summarized thus:

By showing that (1) both fetuses and newborns do not have the same moral status as actual persons, (2) the fact that both are potential persons is morally irrelevant and (3) adoption is not always in the best interest of actual people, the authors argue that what we call ‘after-birth abortion’ (killing a newborn) should be permissible in all the cases where abortion is, including cases where the newborn is not disabled.

The feeble-mindedness and moral nullity of this argument is established by the use of the term "after-birth abortion," a contradiction in terms introduced to establish the moral equivalence of abortion, which is now legal throughout the "liberal" Western world, and infanticide, which is still deemed to be murder.

How Tony Blair Wrecked the EU

How Brexit Burst the West’s Immigration Taboos

The key thing to recognize about the Brexit conflict is that the critical issue is not economics but immigration. Absent the immigration surge initiated by Tony Blair, Britain’s adhesion to the EU would have remained a sideshow among Tories and not the political centerpiece it has become during the last three years.

and

Blair increased the number of “economic” visas available and immigration rates soon quadrupled. His multiculturalism had a zealous missionary quality to it, as if Britain was seeking world leadership in a race to negate one’s traditional political culture. It was never especially popular outside of London, but social taboos against racism nonetheless kept it out of the realm of public debate.

An excellent analysis by Scott McConnell of the the damage done by the war criminal and inveterate liar Tony Blair, although McConnell fails to make the point that Blair's immigration policy did not merely negate Britain's traditional political culture, its effect was to negate the British race. This it did not only by progressively replacing an aging and declining native population with people of an alien race and culture, but by intensifying the economic pressures on the British population through competition for jobs, housing, and infrastructure, thereby further depressing their fertility. As a consequence, the British are now a minority in London, Birmingham and other great urban centers, and are expected to become a minority in the country as a whole within a generation.

Blair's policy of mass replacement immigration was, in effect, a policy of national genocide. It was, furthermore, totally undemocratic, shown by opinion surveys to have been consistently opposed by a large majority of the population, and opposed even a majority of the immigrant population. Hence Brexit. Hence Blair, the most hated man in Britain.

The gilets jaunes are unstoppable

Christophe Guilluy on why the Euro elites seek to grind the common people of Europe down by means of hate speech, suppressed reproduction and mass replacement immigration, and why the Yellow Vests' reaction cannot be stopped.

The middle-class reaction to the yellow vests has been telling. Immediately, the protesters were denounced as xenophobes, anti-Semites and homophobes. The elites present themselves as anti-fascist and anti-racist but this is merely a way of defending their class interests.

Now the elites are afraid. For the first time, there is a movement which cannot be controlled through the normal political mechanisms. The gilets jaunes didn’t emerge from the trade unions or the political parties. It cannot be stopped. There is no ‘off’ button. Either the intelligentsia will be forced to properly acknowledge the existence of these people, or they will have to opt for a kind of soft totalitarianism.

... the bourgeoisie needs a cultural revolution, particularly in universities and in the media. They need to stop insulting the working class, to stop thinking of all the gilets jaunes as imbeciles.

Cultural respect is fundamental: there will be no economic or political integration until there is cultural integration. Then, of course, we need to think differently about the economy. That means dispensing with neoliberal dogma. We need to think beyond Paris, London and New York.

The gilets jaunes (yellow vest) movement has rattled the French establishment. For several months, crowds ranging from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands have been taking to the streets every weekend across the whole of France. They have had enormous success, extracting major concessions from the government. They continue to march.

Back in 2014, geographer Christopher Guilluy’s study of la France périphérique (peripheral France) caused a media sensation. It drew attention to the economic, cultural and political exclusion of the working classes, most of whom now live outside the major cities. It highlighted the conditions that would later give rise to the yellow-vest phenomenon. Guilluy has developed on these themes in his recent books, No Society and The Twilight of the Elite: Prosperity, the Periphery and the Future of France. spiked caught up with Guilluy to get his view on the causes and consequences of the yellow-vest movement.

A Message to You From the United Church of Globalist Corporations

Having killed Christianity, the globalist elite have apparently determined that the role of the church is to become a corporate function. Hence Gillette, a company hitherto known chiefly for making razor blades and sundry related products, has launched an ad campaign against "toxic masculinity."

Now toxic masculinity, whatever that may be, like toxic feminism, or toxic anything else, is by definition toxic. But do you really want moral instruction from your supplier of razor blades? Or how about condemnation of white privilege on your breakfast cereal package, or advocacy of abortion with your laundry detergent?

Well whatever you want, that is what you are going to get, courtesy of the globalist corporate elite. True, the media have long doled moral direction, but at least they offered it, along with ads for razor blades, breakfast cereal and laundry detergent, with a degree of circumspection: a liberal commentator countered by a more conservative view, the globalist plug, offset by a more patriotic if not actually nationalistic comment.

But now it seems the media are too weak to provide the moral redirection the globalist elite require. Hence, Google will join FaceBook and others in cramming their interests, morals, whatever you want to call self-serving corporate propaganda, down your throat by giving the media an injection of cash for what will surely be globalist trash:

Report for America, an initiative of the GroundTruthProject, Google, and others, plans to place 1,000 journalists in local newsrooms over the next five years. Writing in CJR, the project’s co-founders argue that America needs “a dramatically new approach at the local level—grounded less in the traditional commercial model and more on a reawakened spirit of public service among reporters.”

Steven Waldman and Charles M. Sennott say that they want to model their initiative on organizations like the Peace Corps and Teach for America, providing opportunities and support to emerging journalists while also helping newsrooms around the country do civically important reporting.

Meantime, Google will go on fiddling their search results and YouTube contents to shape your view of the World as the globalist elite desire:

...an internal discussion thread leaked to Breitbart News reveals Google regularly intervenes in search results on its YouTube video platform – including a recent intervention that pushed pro-life videos out of the top ten search results for “abortion.”

Clearly corporations that can devote hundreds of millions to revising your opinions and moral convictions are too big for democracy and should be broken up. Hence, one reason for the drive to oust Trump: he could be crazy enough to act against the corporate monopolists who seek not only to rig the market against you, but to control your mind.

Google Censorship: How Google Aims to Control Your Mind

Breitbart, January 16, 2019: In sworn testimony, Google CEO Sundar Pichai told Congress last month that his company does not “manually intervene” on any particular search result. Yet an internal discussion thread leaked to Breitbart News reveals Google regularly intervenes in search results on its YouTube video platform – including a recent intervention that pushed pro-life videos out of the top ten search results for “abortion.”

The term “abortion” was added to a “blacklist” file for “controversial YouTube queries,” which contains a list of search terms that the company considers sensitive. According to the leak, these include some of these search terms related to: abortion, abortions, the Irish abortion referendum, Democratic Congresswoman Maxine Waters, and anti-gun activist David Hogg.

The existence of the blacklist was revealed in an internal Google discussion thread leaked to Breitbart News by a source inside the company who wishes to remain anonymous. A partial list of blacklisted terms was also leaked to Breitbart by another Google source.

In the leaked discussion thread, a Google site reliability engineer hinted at the existence of more search blacklists, according to the source.

“We have tons of white- and blacklists that humans manually curate,” said the employee. “Hopefully this isn’t surprising or particularly controversial.”

Others were more concerned about the presence of the blacklist. According to the source, the software engineer who started the discussion called the manipulation of search results related to abortion a “smoking gun.”

The software engineer noted that the change had occurred following an inquiry from a left-wing Slate journalist about the prominence of pro-life videos on YouTube, and that pro-life videos were replaced with pro-abortion videos in the top ten results for the search terms following Google’s manual intervention.

Great Hypocrites, No. 79: George, No-Border-Wall, Soros's Border Wall

James Delingpole: Making Britain the Land of the Living Dead

Breitbart, January 13, 2019: At dinner the other night, a QC friend of mine — I forget what the Q stands for but I know exactly why they’re all called Cs — tried explaining to me why Theresa May’s Brexit ‘deal’ is actually a good deal for Britain.

So I asked him to explain to me what’s good about it.

He began by agreeing that the deal isn’t perfect but said that there’s got to be a bit of give and take on both sides. Then he conceded that of course “No deal” might have been better but because the government had made such poor preparations for such an eventuality over the last two and half years…

“Let me stop you right there, you despicable, fat, Establishment sell-out tosser…” I said.

This is the problem with every Remain argument I’ve ever heard. None of them can actually explain why Theresa May’s ‘deal’ — or any of the other fudges, cop-outs and surrenders being planned by the Remainers — in any way respects the wishes of the 17.4 million people who voted Brexit in 2016.

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.

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 BBC, Macleans, 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.”
