From the Newspeak appendix to 1984:
Crimestop means the faculty of stopping short, as though by instinct, at the threshold of any dangerous thought. It includes the power of not grasping analogies, of failing to perceive logical errors, of misunderstanding the simplest arguments if they are inimical to Ingsoc, and of being bored or repelled by any train of thought which is capable of leading in a heretical direction. Crimestop, in short, means protective stupidity.

I always thought the “alt” in “alt-right” meant “alternative” as in “alternative lifestyle”, and that that was the reason for the prominence of figures like Jack Donovan and Richard Spencer. I didn’t know it came from the keyboard button.
For any newbies, it was alternative to what was mainstream conservatism in the Bush era, which was lots of wars in the Middle East on behalf of Israel, and lots of illegal immigration. It's now coming to mean 'conservatism based on white gentile identity politics', more or less.Replies: @Anon, @AndrewR, @Lyov Myshkin
Nobody knows how many Alt-Right people there are in The United States, but my guess is they outnumber the KKK but they are still outnumbered by other non mainstream groups like Juggalos, The Flat Earther Society, and Scientologists for example. In other words there are not enough Alt-Right people to help Donald J. Trump win any states in a presidential election. The overwhelming majority of people who voted for Donald J. Trump are not part of the Alt-Right. 63 million people voted for Donald J. Trump and there are nowhere near 63 million Alt-Right people in The U.S.
The mainstream media is using the term Alt-Right way too loosely to describe anybody who believes protecting the 1st amendment trumps protecting political correctness and racial diversity.
I'm not sure anyone is a 'member', but I can assure you there are many out there who share some of the opinions and outlooks that are grouped under the Alt-Right banner. Certainly more than there are Juggalos (I hope!)Replies: @Jefferson
No pun intended, of course.
The “neo-Nazis” may be a “rump”, but the anti-Semites aren’t, and anti-Semitism is one of the primary aspects of the alt-right. And the anti-Semites aren’t powerless judging by the speed and degree to which they’ve been able to resurrect and proliferate anti-Semitic ideas and memes to people who would have never heard of them otherwise.
Stop trying to hide the man behind the curtain, it only makes Jewish Leftism look far worse and will only incite anger. Can't you admit Jews in America have different group interests than white gentiles, and that Jewish advancement of certain causes is not based on universal ideals but Jewish-group interests?
If you admitted that, we could respect you intellectually. But until you do, you're just trying to deny the sky is blue.Replies: @syonredux
I found some really good educational stuff from right-leaning Jews.
I was starting cold. A Math/Physics major, a long career as a computer programmer, plus raising two kids on my own, didn't leave me a lot of spare time. By 9/11 the kids were leaving home, successfully launched, giving me a lot more spare time.
The New Republic had some good stuff (too bad they've become just another lefty site).
Front Page Mag is also good, taking many of the same stands as most readers here. But I've noticed occasional articles by their writer Daniel Greenfield complaining bitterly about the number of Jewish lefties. He thinks they are essentially suicidal, since they're been active in bringing Muslims to the West. On the whole, Muslims simply hate Jews. Greenfield can't figure out why they can't put 2 + 2 together.
He calls them JINOs (like RINOs).
Since a group of right wing Jews has influenced my waking up to how bad the Left is, I can't understand why the knee jerk anti-Semites can't take a more nuanced view.
For example, I think Islam poses a great threat to the West, but I acknowledge that not every single person born a Muslim is a threat. There are even a few good writers there too.
I was surprised to find anti-Semitism on the left. But it is. As far as I can see, it's related to the influx of Muslims. Politicians want to cater to them.
But there could be other reasons. I wasn't reading up politics pre-9/11. I foolishly assumed that media like Newsweek would give a realistic picture of the world.Replies: @Kylie, @Opinionator, @SFG, @Lurker, @Lyov Myshkin

My first few computers did not have a mouse, so keyboard shortcuts are second nature. Even with Windows 3.1 and 95, a lot of the software was DOS with no mouse support.
I noticed people only a few years younger than me are not, and mostly do not even use ctrl-c and -v.
Microsoft Word for DOS used Del for Cut and Ins for paste. Having a one-key command for paste makes a lot of sense. (You can customize the keyboard in almost any decent modern word processor.)
One of the reasons why WordPerfect 5.1 was so popular (aside from the old WordPerfect Corporation's exemplary customer support*) was that you could remap the entire keyboard. You could even reprogram the alphanumeric keys.
Cttl-V and Ctrl-C were taken from the Mac, where the equivalent commands were issued with the Command key.
Incidentally, in 1984, IBM PC keyboards had the Cttl key where the Caps Lock key is now. IBM switched to the modern layout around 1986. As late as 1990, some clones were still being sold with the earlier layout. (Some Apple keyboards had Cttl in the Caps Lock spot, as well.)
The early Mac keyboards had no arrow keys. Word 1.0 for the Mac used such combinations as Cmd-Opt-semicolon for moving the cursor.

I think Ctrl-P was already ‘print’. It’s easy to make fun of the more labyrinthine hotkey combos until you realize how easy it is to run out of letters of the alphabet.
Alt-Right turns out to have been a disaster of a coinage. It was first used as a rough equivalent of paleoconservative, but in the six months it was appropriated, with heavy MSM support, by Spencer and other fringe neo-Nazi types. So the press, in article after article, does a friendly profile of Spencer, and then runs the same Bannon quote about Breitbart being a platform for the alt-right, when Bannon of course used the word in the normal way.
Spencer is not a fringe 'neo-Nazi'. If he is, then so is Sailer. Stop throwing around epithets designed by the SPLC. Also, Bannon didn't use it in the 'normal way'. That's absurd. Breitbart basically serves up Neoconservatism/libertarianism. It isn't alternative in any way. The Alt-Right is a White identity movement. Nothing else.Replies: @SFG, @Prof. Woland

Disaster for who? Spencer got himself a lot of media attention. We’ll see if they grow in strength or just become useful foils for the MSM.
Bannon is ironically a lot less racially-focused than his detractors on the left want to admit and his detractors on the right wish he were.
It meant a more radical form of paleocon to begin with–the whole thing started with Paul Gottfried telling the paleocons they’d failed. It depends how far back you want to go–there were neoreactionaries, the Dark Enlightenment, and so on. ‘Memba?

The media is highly selective about who gets to claim the moral high ground of being a victim when death threats and abuse are involved.
I think we of the anti-Left need to play by the same rules, and start publicizing each and every death threat our guys get. Use their own rule book against them. If they want to claim victim-hood points from it, so do we.

But she probably did get a lot of insults, which is what really pissed her off.It's the nature of Twitter or Twatter.
You can't say much, so it's only good for sharing links, posting memes, hurling insults, tossing epithets, being 'snarky', etc. Mockery and ridicule. Someone with a knack for slogans can use it creatively, but it's just a mud-slinging fest for the hoi polloi, most of us.Btw, how convenient for her that a word like 'antisemitic' exists with which to discredit her attackers. But she can proudly indulge in the worst kind of anti-white-gentile-male hatred because it hasn't been terminologically pathologized.
No, kidding, The whole point of the alt-right is to stop tilting at (ideological) windmills and actually engage the problem. This is a conflict between groups of people, not ideas.
I’ve seen no evidence of this. What have you seen?
Even the Cold War can be viewed as part of the greater Russian-Anglo conflict. America adopted many socialist practice during those years but incorporated them in a different way.

Meanwhile in reality, Trump is the most pro-Israel president ever.
Clinton and W both made and broke the same promise.
His ambassador is also saying it will happen. He’s a settler activist focused on building as fast as possible housing in the occupied outskirts of Jerusalem, some of which has been demolished after court fights in Israel.
The full article is overly long but advances the idea that the goal will be formal Israeli annexation with US support of nearly all of the West Bank outside of the Arab population centers. Or should I say Judea and Samaria.

If I had to describe the alt-right it would be a group of predominantly white people, albeit not exclusively, having an anonymous conversation with other whites primarily on the internet where they can discuss openly their interests without the interference or threat of retaliation from the powers that be.

Using the strictly narrow non mainstream media definition of Alt-Right, there aren’t enough Alt-Right people to get someone elected mayor of Reno, Nevada, let alone get someone elected POTUS.
Saying politically incorrect shit doesn’t automatically make someone Alt-Right. If that were the case than Compound Media for example (Gavin McInnes, The Proud Boys, East Side Dave, Pat Dixon, Anthony Cumia) would be Alt-Right because they say the N Word a lot, mostly in a joking matter for shock factor. Nobody who is truly Alt-Right would consider Compound Media to be part of their tribe.
It isn’t recent, and he didn’t appropriate it. Spencer coined the term “alt-right” several years ago. When Bannon used it, he probably only had a dim understandng of it’s origin and meaning.

The same could be said of most Jews… they don’t have a problem with self-hating whites who kiss Jewish asses.
Well, some of them but tbh there are plenty of Jews writing those “unbearable whiteness of X” type articles who simply have a problem with white people existing and doing white things together. These horrible, horrible white people, a global minority, numbering less than the Han Chinese, with below replacement birth rates, admitting migrants into their countries at the highest rates in the world, paying their medical costs and allowing them to draw benefits from a system they have not paid into, for the most part witlessly enjoying the output of a Hollywood that demonizes them, sending their children to university to absorb the ideas of the likes of Donna Zuckerberg. And I might mention, sending billions to their friends in Israel, fighting wars on their behalf (most who say that talk about the recent wars and not WW2, the most important of them all), and allowing them a seat at the table such that nearly half of the Forbes 500 or whatever it was is Jewish. And being perfectly fine with that.
But no, all of those self-hating, ass-kissing flyover white people who have hosted us without quarrel going back a thousand years to the UK where it all started… let’s burn it all down because the Frankfurt School thought it would be a good idea.

Any account that sends Donna a threat on Twitter will almost certainly be banned in hours. Common sense says you can’t send stuff like that to the sister of the guy who owns the website without retaliation. I wouldn’t be surprised if everyone propagating alt-right messages on Twitter gets banned after this.
Given the general modern prevalence of the "hate hoax" as a method for these identity lobby wannabe censors to jusify their "defensive" aggressions, the biggest group is probably jewish and pro-jewish groups and individuals who want to see more favourable treatment for their identity group. Exactly the same as the black and gay identity obsessives who do exactly the same kind of thing (faking up "threats" and "outrages" to make their side appear more threatened), time after time after time.
The second group is probably far smaller and would consist of reasonably decent people who have been provoked/censored/threatened with violence or with actual prosecution by jewish and pro-jewish groups and individuals on the internet (I can confirm from direct personal experience that this kind of thing is a regular occurrence), and who lack the discipline to contain their responses.
The final and probably vanishingly small group is of not too bright people who actually sent the messages with menacing intent.

That’s probably the dumbest thing you’ve ever said. The fact that you think lots of folks make death threats against anyone who enters the world of politics proves that your view of reality is about as unhinged as any leftist screaming hate hoaxes. The only people who regularly GET death threats are federal judges and prosecutors. The thirty threats Obama gets every day are idiots who say something suggestive on Facebook or Twitter that they didn’t actually send to anyone. I knew someone who got a phone call from the secret service because he posted something a bit too angry about Obama on his Facebook page. Back in June there was a case of one insane guy making insane death threats on Twitter to a few congressman and that was unusual.
I suspect you assume that since you are on a self-styled sinister doxxing mission of female strangers that there must be a lot of people doing so much worse stuff all the time like sending death threats out left and right but you are wrong. And you need to think about that. And you need to repent. Because LOOK, you are being critical of a woman who takes a vividly monstrous DEATH THREAT personally. You people talk about the Classics and Western Civilization and you are threatening a women with death for speaking out like a perfectly typical and adorable woman who wants to pretend she’s Joan of Arc for a minute. You see that Tweet she loves it, she’s Joan of Arc dude she’s having a blast.

Here, the left’s Black mascots fill that role.
You clearly are in denial about how political fame draws the violent ire across the political spectrum. Your local talk radio and politicos get death threats regularly for minor and medium-events. Blow it up to a national pundit on the Ann Coulter-level, and you are going to see some serious numbers.
The difference is not whether a threat is made, but whether it is “credible.” Most of these Leftists are whining about incredible, silly threats from dudes who got a little drunk or were a little stressed out that day; Ann Coulter gets those, too. The investigators give those a cursory glance.
But, occasionally, there IS a credible threat; the dude writes several threats in a row, or mentions where a famous person lives, etc. And those occasions happen to everyone with a national profile once in a while.
Nice. So the secret police were more concerned with vague anger at Obama rather than using their resources to scan the Facebook pages of new immigrants to see if they ranted about how great ISIS is?
Good job Jack Hansen!
Sweet justice, I think there’s some projection going on here. What women are you doxxing, Cucksey?
Having seen evidence of this, and your conclusory denial, makes me very suspicious of why you’re in such denial. I’ll trust Ann Coulter and other girls of the right on this over you, Patty C.
.
lol. What she’s describing aren’t serious threats, otherwise she wouldn’t be whining about them. She’s akin to an actress getting famous and then whining about not being able to go to the store. People writing mean things about you is the price you pay for being a national political figure, don’t like it, stop being one , the attention (good and bad) will go away.
Wow, just more projection by Patty. I never threatened her, Patty C.; I was making fun of her hysterical overreaction to basic hatemail. You do get the difference, right?
….Right?
But the more important questions are: why are you threatening women with death? And which women are you threatending?
Are you drunk? lol.
This is the downside of the relative anonymity of the Internet--some people use the added freedom of anonymity to have worthwhile discussions that would get them hassled by HR if they used their true names, but there are plenty of idiots who can think of nothing more creative to do with it than send death threats to a stranger.Replies: @whorefinder
Ann Coulter relishes inviting her haters more than anyone who's not on talk radio I would say, she would get death threats if anyone in that line did I suppose, and I'm sure she does, though I can't find them on twitter, and I'm sure her email is not public, much less her address, so anyways its hard for me to see how she gets deluged with them. So how is that what you know? I suspect we think people like her get more death threats than they do because they get a lot of hate mail and maybe its one of those things with celebrities where they like to call all hate mail death threats because that's more special, and I suspect not a few of them don't receive any hate mail but will say they receive lots of death threats---you believe women lie like that don't you whorefinder?
But if EVERYONE with a national profile does get real death threats eventually I would like to know what we know about the folks who tell the least of them they are going to be killed by yours truly, who are these people and how much fun are they having or how insane are they or how much fun is their insanity? Come to think, my father used to be one of the lessers, he was on the evening news a lot and sometimes nightly for a few years when he was executive director of the ACU during the Reagan administration, and trust me when I say there is not a soul on TV today meaner than my father when he is telling you how stupid you are, for I have got the scars to prove it--- but he never got a single death threat, even though its never been uglier than it was during the Bork confirmation that's for sure. So as I say I'm skeptical, and there appears to be a conspicuous absence of data on such a stark social phenomenon. I do suspect there is not a little bit of humble bragging going on when women start talking about how much hate mail and death threats they get, tell you the truth I can't imagine otherwise, and for all of your PUA knowledge of these being, you might be gettin beta fooled bro.
But all that is really beside the point, because, and note that no one has ever mistaken me for a philo-semite, because it's pretty self-righteous to expect a jew moreover a jewish woman that she not take it "personally" when a bunch of "our guys" tell her we prefer you were a lampshade. Nor can I fathom why she should not act like such a woman---which is bro you want your women feminine or not? And this was not like the celebrity who complains about the attention idiot, this was like the celebrity who complains about the death threats. Like I said, you are being critical of a woman for complaining about a deluge of death threats. Are you saying she should laugh off the attacks you totally support because you just want to joke around with her? Or do you not totally support the attacks and if not then why are you concerned with her reaction?
Now lets say your right which probably you are and call it hate mail. I think a straight death threat would bother me less than hate mail that mean, because I wouldn't likely believe the death threat but I might wonder if the hate mail was more of a death threat, and that's the type of wonder that makes you wonder more. And the first thing she wondered was who is he who sent them? I suspect she was wondering was he a Nazi.

Spencer did not coin the term “alt-right.” Spencer named a web domain “alternative right,” which was a term introduced to the public about six months earlier by Paul Gottfried.
Spencer seems to have a penchant for appropriating others’ ideas and memes.
And not only is “alternative right” a phrase distinct from “alt-right”. When the latter term exploded onto the scene last year, it had a different meaning from Spencer’s “alternativeright.com” referent of five years earlier.
And last year’s term now has an additional meaning thanks to Spencer: racial purity ethnonationalism and ethnic cleansing on U.S. soil.
"Alt-right" is different than "alternative right". Can you point to Gottfried's use of the former? As far as I could tell, Spencer was the first to use it.

Making death threats is against the law, and I’ll bet she only got few of those if any.
But she probably did get a lot of insults, which is what really pissed her off.
It’s the nature of Twitter or Twatter.
You can’t say much, so it’s only good for sharing links, posting memes, hurling insults, tossing epithets, being ‘snarky’, etc. Mockery and ridicule.
Someone with a knack for slogans can use it creatively, but it’s just a mud-slinging fest for the hoi polloi, most of us.
Btw, how convenient for her that a word like ‘antisemitic’ exists with which to discredit her attackers. But she can proudly indulge in the worst kind of anti-white-gentile-male hatred because it hasn’t been terminologically pathologized.

Considering the fact that what Tiny types can’t be described by either “good” or “bad”, then yes, “ze” is providing an example of goodthink.
Wasn’t there a Seinfeld episode about that?
I was quite pleased to find this term, “alt-right”, some time ago. It felt liberating, and had a pleasing oxymoronic flavor: “right” suggests conformity, dull rigor, seriousness; “alt” the opposite, with a “think different” flavor. For some reason and perhaps wrongly, I associated it with Razib and his unapologetic un-pc opinions. Certainly I did not link it to any kind of racial or ethnic movement, quite the contrary. The label “paleo-con” had its charm and humor too (long after “neo-con” had been robbed of any novelty or appeal), but it felt as self-evidently doomed as my attempts to follow the diet of the same name.
By the way I assume “alt” came from Usenet, the “alt-*” newsgroups providing a “home for a wide variety of things that did not fit elsewhere”. This home, and all of Usenet, has slowly disappeared, due to obsolescence and uncontrolled dissemination of illegal materials such as child pornography. Nobody’s perfect…

He thinks they are essentially suicidal, since they're been active in bringing Muslims to the West. On the whole, Muslims simply hate Jews. Greenfield can't figure out why they can't put 2 + 2 together.
He calls them JINOs (like RINOs).
Since a group of right wing Jews has influenced my waking up to how bad the Left is, I can't understand why the knee jerk anti-Semites can't take a more nuanced view.
For example, I think Islam poses a great threat to the West, but I acknowledge that not every single person born a Muslim is a threat. There are even a few good writers there too.
I was surprised to find anti-Semitism on the left. But it is. As far as I can see, it's related to the influx of Muslims. Politicians want to cater to them.
But there could be other reasons. I wasn't reading up politics pre-9/11. I foolishly assumed that media like Newsweek would give a realistic picture of the world.Replies: @Kylie, @Opinionator, @SFG, @Lurker, @Lyov Myshkin
Some of it’s as you claim–Breitbart probably did as much as anyone to help elect Trump–but there’s a very, very large Jewish contingent among the theoreticians and enforcers of PC and the modern left in general. Combine that with the large Jewish presence in the NeverTrump movement. Jews get spooked by white identity politics because, well, Hitler, and hundreds of oven memes sent at every Jewish reporter who mocks them don’t help.
It’s an old blood feud going back to the 1890s that I don’t see abating anytime soon.
They don’t, but it’s pretty much Spencer at this point–Moldbug was an interesting theoretician but most of his insights have been well absorbed and his branch of the movement is no longer active.
It’s people on the right who think that GWBush, Rove, Weekly Standard, National Review et al are effing idiots and whose principal motivating drive is white identity politics. Leaving out white identity politics still gives you most libertarians–leave out both and you get the left.

Adolf Hitler worship is very Homo and creepy if you ask me. The whole sieg heil White nationalist Stormfront 14 words movement gives off such a creepy Manson Family and Jim Jones Jonestown type cult vibe.

So what is western civilization? Is democracy western civilization? What about paganism? Or feudalism or absolute monarchy, or a hereditary oligarchy like the Roman republic, can Philip II’s Spain be regarded as being part of the west even though it is a theocracy, what about Russia under the czars? Should the eastern orthodox church be treated as a part of western civilization, Samuel Huntington disagrees, what about the Eastern Roman Empire, should it be treated as part of the west? What about the Carthaginians?

Your point?
I wonder if there is any data on this. I know Megan McArdle has written in her blog about the fairly frequent crazy death and rape threats she gets. I don’t think she’s at all unique. My impression is that prominent online figures tend to get a certain level of this, women usually more than men.
This is the downside of the relative anonymity of the Internet–some people use the added freedom of anonymity to have worthwhile discussions that would get them hassled by HR if they used their true names, but there are plenty of idiots who can think of nothing more creative to do with it than send death threats to a stranger.
And that's before you can even consider whether the threat is credible.
You can always tell when a Lefty is lying about their supposed "death threats" because, when challenged, they won't release the email/posting/tweet that supposedly threatened them with death, fully and in context. They want to be able to make accusations of "death threats" and not be challenged on it. When this happens, assume they're lying and don't believe them.
“Spencer did not coin the term “alt-right.” Spencer named a web domain “alternative right,” which was a term introduced to the public about six months earlier by Paul Gottfried.”
“Alt-right” is different than “alternative right”. Can you point to Gottfried’s use of the former? As far as I could tell, Spencer was the first to use it.

Although she says it “speaks to me”, I doubt she really means that. She means “I hope it speaks to you, white gentile woman”. She’ll probably marry a jewish guy.
Oh this is pretty damn funny actually. I always found you beyond the pale because I took your website ‘about’ and motto literally and thought your thing was doxxing feminists bloggers or some such. At one point, or maybe still now and then, that was going on between Roissy or one of those guys and some feminist blogger or several of them—- actually Roissy seems to viciously attack average people he somehow comes across online on a regular basis— and under that impression I assumed your blog was about being a zealous disciple of your guru and the whole business struck me as repugnant. I don’t know, the phrase ‘a woman’s past matters’ is provocative I suppose. I just never scrolled your blog at all. We can be friendlier now though if you don’t actually worship the devil in that way. I am glad you don’t do that, I assumed you must be an omega who despised women, and could only hope to help your PUA brethren in cyber battle, and I even thought to feel sorry for you, that you went out in search of whores because you couldn’t enjoy them. It’s pretty hilarious altogether, especially now that you’re just a regular guy who calls yourself whorefinder lol. Oh man shall I now tell you the time Roissy thought I didn’t know who he was when he started his performance and tried to shuck me?
Ann Coulter relishes inviting her haters more than anyone who’s not on talk radio I would say, she would get death threats if anyone in that line did I suppose, and I’m sure she does, though I can’t find them on twitter, and I’m sure her email is not public, much less her address, so anyways its hard for me to see how she gets deluged with them. So how is that what you know? I suspect we think people like her get more death threats than they do because they get a lot of hate mail and maybe its one of those things with celebrities where they like to call all hate mail death threats because that’s more special, and I suspect not a few of them don’t receive any hate mail but will say they receive lots of death threats—you believe women lie like that don’t you whorefinder?
But if EVERYONE with a national profile does get real death threats eventually I would like to know what we know about the folks who tell the least of them they are going to be killed by yours truly, who are these people and how much fun are they having or how insane are they or how much fun is their insanity? Come to think, my father used to be one of the lessers, he was on the evening news a lot and sometimes nightly for a few years when he was executive director of the ACU during the Reagan administration, and trust me when I say there is not a soul on TV today meaner than my father when he is telling you how stupid you are, for I have got the scars to prove it— but he never got a single death threat, even though its never been uglier than it was during the Bork confirmation that’s for sure. So as I say I’m skeptical, and there appears to be a conspicuous absence of data on such a stark social phenomenon. I do suspect there is not a little bit of humble bragging going on when women start talking about how much hate mail and death threats they get, tell you the truth I can’t imagine otherwise, and for all of your PUA knowledge of these being, you might be gettin beta fooled bro.
But all that is really beside the point, because, and note that no one has ever mistaken me for a philo-semite, because it’s pretty self-righteous to expect a jew moreover a jewish woman that she not take it “personally” when a bunch of “our guys” tell her we prefer you were a lampshade. Nor can I fathom why she should not act like such a woman—which is bro you want your women feminine or not? And this was not like the celebrity who complains about the attention idiot, this was like the celebrity who complains about the death threats. Like I said, you are being critical of a woman for complaining about a deluge of death threats. Are you saying she should laugh off the attacks you totally support because you just want to joke around with her? Or do you not totally support the attacks and if not then why are you concerned with her reaction?
Now lets say your right which probably you are and call it hate mail. I think a straight death threat would bother me less than hate mail that mean, because I wouldn’t likely believe the death threat but I might wonder if the hate mail was more of a death threat, and that’s the type of wonder that makes you wonder more. And the first thing she wondered was who is he who sent them? I suspect she was wondering was he a Nazi.
Anyways I take it this was her first go around with any such attention, and actually I would have expected more of a reaction from her than I saw after reading that call to arms she penned, but then I don’t know any norms of twitter.
What if that death threat is followed by I know where you live and they post your home address, would you still not be disturbed?
there there.
*pat pat* I spent five whole minutes trying to parse that mishmash of nonsense. I think because Patty C. missed his prescription last night, he doubled up this morning and this is what happens. Your father did not have Facebook, Twitter, email, and his own personal website. One of the blessings of Twitter has been how it momentarily pops the bubbles of Leftist celebrities by people trolling them, and then setting them off. But they also receive a ton more threats/threatening insults to them because they are more connected.
Don't be obtuse. The Left has only itself to blame for pushing Holocaust Worship/Evil Nazis down everyone's throat for 70+ years now. Like the term "rape", the Left has so wildly overused the Nazi trope it's now a joke, especially since there are no Nazis around. This is the natural, over-the-top, clearly-not-serious reaction to it. And she was never in the Holocaust, her claiming any "personal" insult is laughable. Unless you were an actual Holocaust victim, a Holocaust joke isn't serious, you're just overreacting, trying to invoke some Jewish privilege, so wusses like Patty C. white knight for you. This is like a celebrity complaining somebody was mean to them online. Because that's all it is. Relax, white knight. LMAO. Not death threats, she's overreacting to her fame bringing people don't like her, like a wuss. If a woman wants to be fame, she doesn't get to make everyone like her.
Not death threats, white knight. .
So Patty Cuck goes through an entire white knight rage spiral defending this anti-gentile's hysteria, and then admits, "Yeah, dude, you're prolly right."

So, mission accomplished for the trolls in this case. If she makes [email protected] mad by quoting a poem the real world consequences are nil.
Trump’s genius is that he has figured out how to troll the left while running for president. I’m still not quite sure how he does it.

I take your point and I wanted to ask you, in relation to that point, how many of those right-wing Jews are actually pro-White? Or, at the very least, how many of them would support the idea of the historical populations of the West maintaining their ethnic dominance? How many of them would denounce White people practicing the same ethnocentrism and identity politics that the Jews themselves aggressively pursue?
In my experience it’s literally one in a million — Jews that support White identity — although I’m sure you’d find at least a plurality of the anti-semitic set that has no problem with and in fact supports Israel as a Jewish ethno-state.
Which is more nuanced?
But at FrontPage (run by Jew David Horowitz) all the writers (including the Jew Daniel Greenfield that I mentioned) seem to see themselves as white too.
They agree with all the points that made Trump a winner (largely a cutback on immigration, including a separation fence) and a distinct distaste for Islam. They do support Israel, but I cannot see a contradiction as they support reduced immigration to the U.S.
They don't see themselves as a Jewish site and many non-Jews write there also.
You could check it out yourself.
They are likely not far from a site like Breitbart.
BlazingCatFur supports both Israel and an end to mass immigration to Canada (the man who runs the site is not Jewish).
There are many site in this category.
As to what fraction of Jews would identify with editorial line at FrontPage, I can't say.
Another point: many of the Jews who support mass immigration to the US are not particularly interested in Israel, or are outright anti-Israel.
Statistics on these points would be useful, but I can't see any polling organization taking up the task.Replies: @ben tillman
This is ridiculous. In Canada, Pierre Elliot Trudeau was the driving force behind multiculturalism. And his idiotic son is now our prime minister.
Trudeau Sr. was part French and part Scottish. I have it heard it said that the 100% French Canadians didn't accept him due to this mixed background. Thus he wanted a whole bunch of other ethnicities to dilute the French and English-speakers.
I have no idea if this true or not, but the man certainly wasn't Jewish or even particularly interested in them. The francophone/Anglophone debate was the big story in Canada.
And at the present time, there is no shortage of Gentiles who are all in favour of mass immigration for some reason I can't figure out. I've encountered many of them. They don't seem to even have an opinion on Israel or Jews.
There are fewer Jews per capita in Canada than the US. They are particularly thin on the ground in western Canada. Yet there are leftist idiots galore out here. You can take that to the bank.Replies: @ben tillman, @ben tillman, @dfordoom
Now if I had lived my life in a an area where there were large Jewish minorities (I'm thinking pre-WW II Eastern Europe) I might have a different opinion.
But since they're a tiny minority in B.C., Canada, I can't see them as a threat. There aren't even enough in all of Canada to bother me.
So you might say, I just have no experience with the problem.
But as I mentioned in another comment, the small number of Jews in Canada did not slow the globalist agenda, including mass immigration from very different cultures, at all.
The point I'm making is even if Jews were prominent in the onset mass immigration in the US, it happened even so in Canada. In summary, the idea that there would not have been mass immigration without Jews, is wrong.
The West is crawling is crazy Gentile leftists. The emphasis on Jews makes no sense. You have to look at the West as a whole, rather than restrict yourself the US.

“It was first used as a rough equivalent of paleoconservative, but in the six months it was appropriated, with heavy MSM support, by Spencer and other fringe neo-Nazi types.”
Spencer is not a fringe ‘neo-Nazi’. If he is, then so is Sailer. Stop throwing around epithets designed by the SPLC.
Also, Bannon didn’t use it in the ‘normal way’. That’s absurd. Breitbart basically serves up Neoconservatism/libertarianism. It isn’t alternative in any way. The Alt-Right is a White identity movement. Nothing else.
It's more a sort of kosher alt-lite; they support white interests as long as it doesn't mean directly attacking Jewish ones. And they'll often go after Jewish liberals, they just don't call them out for being Jewish. (Except for the one time Dave Horowitz went after Bill Kristol, and the MSM hung that around their necks for weeks.)On the one hand, I guess it's not a pure white identity movement. On the other hand, they won.
We have overdosed on Hispanics. Even if we kept immigration levels at where they are but put our thumb on the scale to help Indians (dots not feathers), or South East Asians, that would be completely unacceptable for the poor poor Latinos who are sitting 10 feet on the other side of the border looking to hop across. We should be playing these dirt bags against one another rather than using them to fortify the left. Building a fence / concertina wire / anti-tank ditch along the US-Mex border will help that hugely.
My two cents is that we should require an environmental impact report every year regarding immigration. What could be more environmentally correct? Want more Somalis? I don't. Just make sure there is a detailed report showing how it impacts the rest of the country, our quality of life included, and we will be back on the road to having a sane and civil national conversation.

What were you trying to educate yourself on specifically?Replies: @Frau Katze
I wanted to understand who the terrorists were and why they did what they did. It seemed comparable to Pearl Harbor.
As I studied, lines of inquiry not directly related to 9/11 opened. I stressed my newfound spare time to emphasize how much effort went into this.
I even spent two years after I retired 2012 immersed 24/7 as a co-blogger at the Canadian site BlazingCatFur.
I found blogging too time consuming and even too depressing. But I continue to read, although I have long since understood that 9/11 was ultimately a product of Islam.
I developed an interest in various offshoots of study, some ranging far from my original quest (including reading Steve’s blog).
Oh yes and I discovered how badly the Left had deteriorated since I been an leftist based on family background (my father was a union organizer in Canada in the late 1930s). I also discovered that even in the 1930s the Left was not so great as I’d thought with their support of Stalin.
Is it weird to identify politically as a juggalo?
A few points:
1. Making fun of sanctimonious people is fun. Jews have pushed this idea via popular culture for generations. She’s upset about whose ox is being gored; it’d be okay if it was Christ showered in piss (but not Annelies Frank).
2. Lampshades made of Jewish skin were a Jewish calumny against Europeans. A blood libel against Europeans. There were no lampshades of skin. The evil there was Jewish-perpetrated. So Europeans get to make jokes, and Jews get to suck it up, and – if they want to be honest – acknowledge their calumny.
3. Coping mechanisms are good. The trolls are toughening you up, princess. You didn’t choose a life of needlepoint, you chose a life in the public eye. Jews are famous for their chutzpah and brass, so a few tweets shouldn’t be a biggie. They’re also legendary for their complaining about Gentiles, so again, there’s a symbiosis. P.S., get some sleep, nobody should go at it for 24 hours straight for something as trivial as Twitter.
4. It IS subversive using social media to share pics of your creepy shitheel robber baron (Big) brothers’ face on lampshades. You’re experiencing the less-than-total-hegemony of Jewish Privilege, which is (inter alia) the idea that Jews get to dish it (subversion, irreverence, iconoclasm, etc.) out, but they don’t have to take it.
5. Maybe if Weimar-era Germans had Twitter to vent their feelings, the Jewish holocaust wouldn’t have happened.
6. This is what freedom feels like. It’s the American Way. If it’s not to your taste, there’s always Europe, where they put people in jail for crimethink, and humor Jews don’t like.
7. You’re a stinking filthy rich member of the plutocrat class. This is what “afflicting the comfortable” looks like.
8. You have your own personal ethnic Reich to decamp to; we do not.
9. You are being trolled, and yes, it’s funny. Not objectively funny, but nothing is.
I can go on if you like, princess. Good luck with the pea.
Yeah but he was also the most opposed-by-Jews president ever. Probably because he’s the most wrong-kind-of-pro-Israel president ever. He’s even said stuff like “I love Israel, I’m gonna build a wall like theirs,” a strategy which this ANTI-SEMITE!!! has been recommending for years.
Personally, I like the idea of boosting Israel (and White Zionism) at the expense of Diaspora Jewry.
(To Syon):
Jewish Supremacy: nobody thinks about Jews more than Jews do (Jews on the brain is great if you’re Jewish, but bad Bad BAD if you’re not); the 1/4 of his ancestry is EVERYTHING, the other 3/4 is shit not worthy of mention.
Funny, starting a “massive self-education program after 9/11 via the Internet” is exactly how I became an ANTI-SEMITE!!! I haven’t noticed many counter-Jewish ethnopatriots of the Jewish persuasion, though. And I was into forums, too, not just articles.
(The problem with people who are “confused about the anti-Semitism” is distinguishing the people who are genuinely confused and could use a primer, and the people who are rhetorically confused, and will remain so confused until the day they die, no matter how many primers they receive. In my experience, the latter far outnumber the former. The former tend to find a primer and stop being confused.)
Jews are pretty invested in leftism, and leftism is heavily into (forcing society to) tolerate the intolerable. Personally, I hesitate to call people “suicidal” when they perceive their own interests differently than I do. Especially Jews, who show every indication of being the least ethnically suicidal white tribe on the planet, by far.
I assume by “knee jerk anti-Semites,” you mean people who bear animus to all Jews, regardless of their positions. I’ve rarely encountered any such, outside places like Stormfront. At places like iSteve, I can’t think of the last time I encountered one. I’m some people’s idea of an arch-anti-Semite, and even I have a long list of Righteous Jews.
From Princess Donna:
I doubt she’ll give birth to even one mixed-race baby. Her agreement will very likely turn out to be of the “let’s you and him fight” variety: it’s great that you are having mixed-race babies, honey.

No, her face on a lampshade isn’t a death threat. It’s dark humor and trolling. And she responds the way the trollers intend. It’s kind of like replying to an email spammer.
K, you go on to sink back into incoherence; you seem to shift (in the next two sentences, mind) to suggesting that it’s her catnip. Her comments to the tune of “male tears cup” and “they think they’re subversive” do seem to suggest that she’s engaging in rhetorical combat, which puts her victim pose in a different light.
Europeans get spooked by (Jewish-run) leftism because, well, communism, Palestinians, and Big Media fellow-traveling with communism and Zionism doesn’t help.
Sounds like a case of irreconcilable differences.
Well, you do watch way too much TV. That shit rots your brain. Not defending Hitler-worship, just pointing out that your feelings have been manipulated from the cradle.
Communism and leftism are what I find “creepy.” Especially the Stepford-Wives-like attitude Americans have toward them.

“Think outliers vs averages here. Political movements in the US aren’t generally violent, but there are outliers (really rare people on the outer edge of the distribution) who do get violent–notably pro-life terrorists killing abortionists and animal-rights terrorists vandalizing labs and terrorizing scientists.”
100 percent of the violence in this presidential election has come from the political Left.
Ann Coulter relishes inviting her haters more than anyone who's not on talk radio I would say, she would get death threats if anyone in that line did I suppose, and I'm sure she does, though I can't find them on twitter, and I'm sure her email is not public, much less her address, so anyways its hard for me to see how she gets deluged with them. So how is that what you know? I suspect we think people like her get more death threats than they do because they get a lot of hate mail and maybe its one of those things with celebrities where they like to call all hate mail death threats because that's more special, and I suspect not a few of them don't receive any hate mail but will say they receive lots of death threats---you believe women lie like that don't you whorefinder?
But if EVERYONE with a national profile does get real death threats eventually I would like to know what we know about the folks who tell the least of them they are going to be killed by yours truly, who are these people and how much fun are they having or how insane are they or how much fun is their insanity? Come to think, my father used to be one of the lessers, he was on the evening news a lot and sometimes nightly for a few years when he was executive director of the ACU during the Reagan administration, and trust me when I say there is not a soul on TV today meaner than my father when he is telling you how stupid you are, for I have got the scars to prove it--- but he never got a single death threat, even though its never been uglier than it was during the Bork confirmation that's for sure. So as I say I'm skeptical, and there appears to be a conspicuous absence of data on such a stark social phenomenon. I do suspect there is not a little bit of humble bragging going on when women start talking about how much hate mail and death threats they get, tell you the truth I can't imagine otherwise, and for all of your PUA knowledge of these being, you might be gettin beta fooled bro.
But all that is really beside the point, because, and note that no one has ever mistaken me for a philo-semite, because it's pretty self-righteous to expect a jew moreover a jewish woman that she not take it "personally" when a bunch of "our guys" tell her we prefer you were a lampshade. Nor can I fathom why she should not act like such a woman---which is bro you want your women feminine or not? And this was not like the celebrity who complains about the attention idiot, this was like the celebrity who complains about the death threats. Like I said, you are being critical of a woman for complaining about a deluge of death threats. Are you saying she should laugh off the attacks you totally support because you just want to joke around with her? Or do you not totally support the attacks and if not then why are you concerned with her reaction?
Now lets say your right which probably you are and call it hate mail. I think a straight death threat would bother me less than hate mail that mean, because I wouldn't likely believe the death threat but I might wonder if the hate mail was more of a death threat, and that's the type of wonder that makes you wonder more. And the first thing she wondered was who is he who sent them? I suspect she was wondering was he a Nazi.

I often find myself reverting to the Windows 2.0/3.0 commands: Ctrl-Ins (copy) and Shift-Ins (paste). (Don’t forget Ctrl-Del for cut.)
Microsoft Word for DOS used Del for Cut and Ins for paste. Having a one-key command for paste makes a lot of sense. (You can customize the keyboard in almost any decent modern word processor.)
One of the reasons why WordPerfect 5.1 was so popular (aside from the old WordPerfect Corporation’s exemplary customer support*) was that you could remap the entire keyboard. You could even reprogram the alphanumeric keys.
Cttl-V and Ctrl-C were taken from the Mac, where the equivalent commands were issued with the Command key.
Incidentally, in 1984, IBM PC keyboards had the Cttl key where the Caps Lock key is now. IBM switched to the modern layout around 1986. As late as 1990, some clones were still being sold with the earlier layout. (Some Apple keyboards had Cttl in the Caps Lock spot, as well.)
The early Mac keyboards had no arrow keys. Word 1.0 for the Mac used such combinations as Cmd-Opt-semicolon for moving the cursor.
*Unlimited free tech support for as long as you owned the product, and the best printer support of any DOS word processor. In the DOS days, each program had its own printer drivers. WordPerfect supported hundreds of obscure models.
The Windows 1.0 commands were F2 (Copy), Del (Cut), and Ins (Paste). As I said earlier, DOS Word used the same keys for Cut and Paste.
Oddly, the first three versions of DOS Word did not have a keyboard shortcut for Copy, aside from Esc (Access Menu)-C (Copy).
Another DOS Word 1.x-3.x oddity was that the menu at the bottom of the screen:
http://toastytech.com/guis/word115default.png
...was accessed with the Esc key, but dismissed with the Alpha command. Pressing Esc while in the menu did nothing. (The menu could not be hidden.) Also, the program used Tab and Spacebar, not the arrow keys, for menu navigation and selection.
(Some of these conventions live on in Windows, where Tab and Spacebar are used in dialog boxes.)
Microsoft's DOS applications were extremely quirky and awkward. The company's early Windows apps benefited tremendously from Microsoft's experience in writing Mac apps.
They also benefited from Microsoft's ownership of the operating system. Microsoft apps used undocumented calls to gain better performance and greater stability. (They were still buggy, but not as buggy as some of the crap other companies were dumping on the market.)
Companies such as WordPerfect and Lotus that ported their best-selling DOS programs to Windows struggled to produce versions that didn't crash every five minutes.
In late 1991, the brand-new WordPerfect 5.1 for Windows took 45 seconds to load on a 386/33 - hardly a slow machine at the time. (It was somewhat faster on a top-of-the-line 486.) Any small change involving a printer - such as changing the default paper size - could take upwards of ten minutes, during which the machine was frozen.
Around the same time, Lotus 1-2-3 for Windows was so sluggish that one reviewer, who usually took 15 minutes to run through the features of a new program, gave up in frustration after it took him two hours to get halfway through his checklist.
All Windows programs were slow in those days, but not that slow.Replies: @Anonymous

They were supposed to be the Nazis. The Imperial flag even looks like the Nazi flag. Where do you think they got ‘Stormtroopers’ from?
While I actually agree the heavily-Jewish MSM has a large portion of the blame, Communism? Really? That stuff’s dead. The modern left is basically capitalist with a large government on top to make sure all the groups, including weird ones like transgenders, get equal portions of the pie (which means white males get screwed because of their superior effort, etc.). They’ve basically made their peace with private industry, they just want to equidistribute every race and gender at equal portions throughout every level of it.
Damned if I know, but I’m down with the tribe, and I’m down for life, yo.
Spencer is not a fringe 'neo-Nazi'. If he is, then so is Sailer. Stop throwing around epithets designed by the SPLC. Also, Bannon didn't use it in the 'normal way'. That's absurd. Breitbart basically serves up Neoconservatism/libertarianism. It isn't alternative in any way. The Alt-Right is a White identity movement. Nothing else.Replies: @SFG, @Prof. Woland
Eh…no. Spencer isn’t a Nazi per se. He does represent the core alt-right. There are people like Anglin who are even more extreme.
I wouldn’t really say Breitbart is neocon (though they do support Israel quite strongly) or libertarian. They’ve covered European nationalist movements quite positively, at least the milder ones like UKIP, FN, and AfD. They’ve covered crime by illegal immigrants and Muslims quite extensively.
It’s more a sort of kosher alt-lite; they support white interests as long as it doesn’t mean directly attacking Jewish ones. And they’ll often go after Jewish liberals, they just don’t call them out for being Jewish. (Except for the one time Dave Horowitz went after Bill Kristol, and the MSM hung that around their necks for weeks.)
On the one hand, I guess it’s not a pure white identity movement. On the other hand, they won.
I can’t speak for those I haven’t read in the short time since Trump was elected.
But at FrontPage (run by Jew David Horowitz) all the writers (including the Jew Daniel Greenfield that I mentioned) seem to see themselves as white too.
They agree with all the points that made Trump a winner (largely a cutback on immigration, including a separation fence) and a distinct distaste for Islam. They do support Israel, but I cannot see a contradiction as they support reduced immigration to the U.S.
They don’t see themselves as a Jewish site and many non-Jews write there also.
You could check it out yourself.
They are likely not far from a site like Breitbart.
BlazingCatFur supports both Israel and an end to mass immigration to Canada (the man who runs the site is not Jewish).
There are many site in this category.
As to what fraction of Jews would identify with editorial line at FrontPage, I can’t say.
Another point: many of the Jews who support mass immigration to the US are not particularly interested in Israel, or are outright anti-Israel.
Statistics on these points would be useful, but I can’t see any polling organization taking up the task.

I don’t think it does either, it’s just a funny thought.
More than one in a million. Romney got 30% of the Jewish vote and Trump 20%, so you might go as far as two in three, though I suspect a lot of those were vaguely right-leaning guys who couldn’t stomach Hillary, or didn’t think Trump would really go after the Jews. A lot of the right-wing intelligentsia didn’t like Trump, and a lot of those were Jewish. If I had to guess I’d say ‘right-wing Jews’ are usually OK with generic white people and terrified of white nationalists.
The Breitbart crowd actually practices a sort of soft white identity politics. They’ll report on crimes by illegal immigrants and Muslims, though of course those aren’t races per se. When you get to real white identity politics the Hitler stuff scares a lot of people off, Jewish and otherwise.
One of the things I’ve realized over the years is that the mushy middle is actually a pretty vital place politically even if it’s flabby intellectually. Soft-pedaling racial appeals gives you just enough deniability to moderate whites to get elected to major offices. If whites are afraid of black crime, you can promise to crack down on crime and put lots of black people in jail, and well, theoretically black people who aren’t criminals have nothing to worry about.
One thing I forgot to mention. People talk as though Gentiles were powerless puppets of Jews.
This is ridiculous. In Canada, Pierre Elliot Trudeau was the driving force behind multiculturalism. And his idiotic son is now our prime minister.
Trudeau Sr. was part French and part Scottish. I have it heard it said that the 100% French Canadians didn’t accept him due to this mixed background. Thus he wanted a whole bunch of other ethnicities to dilute the French and English-speakers.
I have no idea if this true or not, but the man certainly wasn’t Jewish or even particularly interested in them. The francophone/Anglophone debate was the big story in Canada.
And at the present time, there is no shortage of Gentiles who are all in favour of mass immigration for some reason I can’t figure out. I’ve encountered many of them. They don’t seem to even have an opinion on Israel or Jews.
There are fewer Jews per capita in Canada than the US. They are particularly thin on the ground in western Canada. Yet there are leftist idiots galore out here. You can take that to the bank.
Your second paragraph, which you seem to believe contradicts the first, is entirely consistent with it. And the "driving force behind multiculturalism" in Canada was not Trudeau but the force that caused Trudeau to push multiculturalism.Replies: @Frau Katze

there’s also the issue of what constitutes a “death threat.” Hysterical Lefties will claim that if someone says “you’re a cancer on humanity” or “I hope you get AIDS”, it’s a death threat; they constantly stretch the definition. Look how Patty Cuck is so delusional that he thinks that I’m making death threats and doxxing women, simply because I’m refusing to believe she’s receiving credible death threats.
And that’s before you can even consider whether the threat is credible.
You can always tell when a Lefty is lying about their supposed “death threats” because, when challenged, they won’t release the email/posting/tweet that supposedly threatened them with death, fully and in context. They want to be able to make accusations of “death threats” and not be challenged on it. When this happens, assume they’re lying and don’t believe them.

The alternative to any of the above was a workstation. A workstation was a microcomputer that thought it was a minicomputer and brought a minicomputer price, and usually ran Unix. There were no shrink wrapped commercial applications for regular office and business tasks on workstations for several years, and when they were introduced the price was always a lot higher than for the same program on a 'mainstream' platform.
What changed the game? Two things, NeXT and Linux.
NeXT, Steve Jobs' startup after getting fired from Apple, showed that you could have the power of a real multitasking multiuser environment and an interface the non-Unix-guru could use effectively and without a steep learning curve. Few people bought them because they were overpriced and underpowered and not marketed to home and small business users, but they showed what could be done.
Linux didn't do anything commercial Unix machines didn't, but it was free. And it was drastically more reliable than early versions of Windows, even if it was not especially user friendly. That made it a potential threat.
Microsoft was scared, and they spent the money to make a system that worked and wasn't especially ugly. Windows 95, 98 and 98SE were distinct improvements on the DOS based Windows, and NT4, 2000 and XP finally did away with the DOS underlayer (there is still a command prompt, that uses DOS commands: it isn't an inner layer but a outer shell) and developed into a reliable environment.
This would never have happened had Microsoft not believed it necessary to cut these interlopers off at the pass.
Meanwhile, Apple bought NeXT and got Steve Jobs back. It meant the end of NeXT, but much of NeXT became apparent in the new Mac OS X (though not all of it: Mac OS X is a dumbed down version). The Classic Mac OS was simply inadequate in the world of the Internet.Replies: @Stan Adams

Your father did not have Facebook, Twitter, email, and his own personal website. One of the blessings of Twitter has been how it momentarily pops the bubbles of Leftist celebrities by people trolling them, and then setting them off. But they also receive a ton more threats/threatening insults to them because they are more connected.
Don’t be obtuse.
The Left has only itself to blame for pushing Holocaust Worship/Evil Nazis down everyone’s throat for 70+ years now. Like the term “rape”, the Left has so wildly overused the Nazi trope it’s now a joke, especially since there are no Nazis around. This is the natural, over-the-top, clearly-not-serious reaction to it. And she was never in the Holocaust, her claiming any “personal” insult is laughable. Unless you were an actual Holocaust victim, a Holocaust joke isn’t serious, you’re just overreacting, trying to invoke some Jewish privilege, so wusses like Patty C. white knight for you.
This is like a celebrity complaining somebody was mean to them online. Because that’s all it is. Relax, white knight.
LMAO. Not death threats, she’s overreacting to her fame bringing people don’t like her, like a wuss. If a woman wants to be fame, she doesn’t get to make everyone like her.

Spencer is not a fringe 'neo-Nazi'. If he is, then so is Sailer. Stop throwing around epithets designed by the SPLC. Also, Bannon didn't use it in the 'normal way'. That's absurd. Breitbart basically serves up Neoconservatism/libertarianism. It isn't alternative in any way. The Alt-Right is a White identity movement. Nothing else.Replies: @SFG, @Prof. Woland
Restricting immigration, both legal and illegal, implies that we are favoring whites which is true, but it also implies that we are favoring other ethnic groups based on who gets in. Seeing that there is an unlimited number of people from everywhere other than Europe and Japan who want to come here, there is a very real competition among the ‘others’ so we are favoring who ever else we lean in favor of.
We have overdosed on Hispanics. Even if we kept immigration levels at where they are but put our thumb on the scale to help Indians (dots not feathers), or South East Asians, that would be completely unacceptable for the poor poor Latinos who are sitting 10 feet on the other side of the border looking to hop across. We should be playing these dirt bags against one another rather than using them to fortify the left. Building a fence / concertina wire / anti-tank ditch along the US-Mex border will help that hugely.
My two cents is that we should require an environmental impact report every year regarding immigration. What could be more environmentally correct? Want more Somalis? I don’t. Just make sure there is a detailed report showing how it impacts the rest of the country, our quality of life included, and we will be back on the road to having a sane and civil national conversation.

But at FrontPage (run by Jew David Horowitz) all the writers (including the Jew Daniel Greenfield that I mentioned) seem to see themselves as white too.
They agree with all the points that made Trump a winner (largely a cutback on immigration, including a separation fence) and a distinct distaste for Islam. They do support Israel, but I cannot see a contradiction as they support reduced immigration to the U.S.
They don't see themselves as a Jewish site and many non-Jews write there also.
You could check it out yourself.
They are likely not far from a site like Breitbart.
BlazingCatFur supports both Israel and an end to mass immigration to Canada (the man who runs the site is not Jewish).
There are many site in this category.
As to what fraction of Jews would identify with editorial line at FrontPage, I can't say.
Another point: many of the Jews who support mass immigration to the US are not particularly interested in Israel, or are outright anti-Israel.
Statistics on these points would be useful, but I can't see any polling organization taking up the task.Replies: @ben tillman
But that’s part of the problem. In so doing, whether or not it’s sincere, they deny us our own identity. The acid test is whether they accept our undeniable right to exclude them from anything and everything of ours. And that is the one-in-a-million thing that Lyov Myshkin is talking about. One-in-a-million may be an exaggeration, but the number of Jews who accept white rights is minuscule. But, in any event, we are wrong to focus on the beliefs of specific Jews who operate outside he framework of the organized Jewish community.
Actually, they wouldn’t be useful. What matters is what organized Jewry does. And organized Jewry, or an organizing force within organized Jewry, remains the sole significant force behind anti-whitism.
This is ridiculous. In Canada, Pierre Elliot Trudeau was the driving force behind multiculturalism. And his idiotic son is now our prime minister.
Trudeau Sr. was part French and part Scottish. I have it heard it said that the 100% French Canadians didn't accept him due to this mixed background. Thus he wanted a whole bunch of other ethnicities to dilute the French and English-speakers.
I have no idea if this true or not, but the man certainly wasn't Jewish or even particularly interested in them. The francophone/Anglophone debate was the big story in Canada.
And at the present time, there is no shortage of Gentiles who are all in favour of mass immigration for some reason I can't figure out. I've encountered many of them. They don't seem to even have an opinion on Israel or Jews.

That’s facile and internally inconsistent.
Your second paragraph, which you seem to believe contradicts the first, is entirely consistent with it. And the “driving force behind multiculturalism” in Canada was not Trudeau but the force that caused Trudeau to push multiculturalism.
As to where the zeitgeist came from, that is a huge question, beyond the scope of blog comments.
The whole multicultural thing has become frankly depressing to me. To research it's exact origin would be a large project. I choose not to spend my time on it.
You believe that Jews were involved to the extent that without them, it would never have happened?
My own sense is that WW I was the trigger for anti-Western sentiments (disgust rather than pride in one's society and culture).

The term “white people” is perhaps where we differ. Most Ashkenazi Jews do look white, and if a Jew wants to call him/herself “white,” that’s fine with me.
Now if I had lived my life in a an area where there were large Jewish minorities (I’m thinking pre-WW II Eastern Europe) I might have a different opinion.
But since they’re a tiny minority in B.C., Canada, I can’t see them as a threat. There aren’t even enough in all of Canada to bother me.
So you might say, I just have no experience with the problem.
But as I mentioned in another comment, the small number of Jews in Canada did not slow the globalist agenda, including mass immigration from very different cultures, at all.
The point I’m making is even if Jews were prominent in the onset mass immigration in the US, it happened even so in Canada. In summary, the idea that there would not have been mass immigration without Jews, is wrong.
The West is crawling is crazy Gentile leftists. The emphasis on Jews makes no sense. You have to look at the West as a whole, rather than restrict yourself the US.

The fact people feel the need to debate the meaning of a term is a good way to know it is useless for communication.
The Windows 1.0 commands were F2 (Copy), Del (Cut), and Ins (Paste). As I said earlier, DOS Word used the same keys for Cut and Paste.
Oddly, the first three versions of DOS Word did not have a keyboard shortcut for Copy, aside from Esc (Access Menu)-C (Copy).
Another DOS Word 1.x-3.x oddity was that the menu at the bottom of the screen:
http://toastytech.com/guis/word115default.png
...was accessed with the Esc key, but dismissed with the Alpha command. Pressing Esc while in the menu did nothing. (The menu could not be hidden.) Also, the program used Tab and Spacebar, not the arrow keys, for menu navigation and selection.
(Some of these conventions live on in Windows, where Tab and Spacebar are used in dialog boxes.)
Microsoft's DOS applications were extremely quirky and awkward. The company's early Windows apps benefited tremendously from Microsoft's experience in writing Mac apps.
They also benefited from Microsoft's ownership of the operating system. Microsoft apps used undocumented calls to gain better performance and greater stability. (They were still buggy, but not as buggy as some of the crap other companies were dumping on the market.)
Companies such as WordPerfect and Lotus that ported their best-selling DOS programs to Windows struggled to produce versions that didn't crash every five minutes.
In late 1991, the brand-new WordPerfect 5.1 for Windows took 45 seconds to load on a 386/33 - hardly a slow machine at the time. (It was somewhat faster on a top-of-the-line 486.) Any small change involving a printer - such as changing the default paper size - could take upwards of ten minutes, during which the machine was frozen.
Around the same time, Lotus 1-2-3 for Windows was so sluggish that one reviewer, who usually took 15 minutes to run through the features of a new program, gave up in frustration after it took him two hours to get halfway through his checklist.
All Windows programs were slow in those days, but not that slow.Replies: @Anonymous
Just how lousy Windows 3.11 and previous versions were has to be remembered. The old Macintosh, with its lack of true multitasking and primitive networking, was actually far more reliable and if you were using the machine for any real work was worth the (not inconsiderable) difference in price. The third party options had serious flaws, too: the Amiga was physically a piece of junk and its video resolution stunk except in the highest end mode: the Atari ST/Falcon had few apps for anything but gaming, and the Acorn RISC which was never seriously marketed in the US had little in the way of productivity apps either. (It did have the superb Sibelius music scoring system, but there is not all that big a market for music scoring.)
The alternative to any of the above was a workstation. A workstation was a microcomputer that thought it was a minicomputer and brought a minicomputer price, and usually ran Unix. There were no shrink wrapped commercial applications for regular office and business tasks on workstations for several years, and when they were introduced the price was always a lot higher than for the same program on a ‘mainstream’ platform.
What changed the game? Two things, NeXT and Linux.
NeXT, Steve Jobs’ startup after getting fired from Apple, showed that you could have the power of a real multitasking multiuser environment and an interface the non-Unix-guru could use effectively and without a steep learning curve. Few people bought them because they were overpriced and underpowered and not marketed to home and small business users, but they showed what could be done.
Linux didn’t do anything commercial Unix machines didn’t, but it was free. And it was drastically more reliable than early versions of Windows, even if it was not especially user friendly. That made it a potential threat.
Microsoft was scared, and they spent the money to make a system that worked and wasn’t especially ugly. Windows 95, 98 and 98SE were distinct improvements on the DOS based Windows, and NT4, 2000 and XP finally did away with the DOS underlayer (there is still a command prompt, that uses DOS commands: it isn’t an inner layer but a outer shell) and developed into a reliable environment.
This would never have happened had Microsoft not believed it necessary to cut these interlopers off at the pass.
Meanwhile, Apple bought NeXT and got Steve Jobs back. It meant the end of NeXT, but much of NeXT became apparent in the new Mac OS X (though not all of it: Mac OS X is a dumbed down version). The Classic Mac OS was simply inadequate in the world of the Internet.
Wait, did I miss something or did either of those candidates run pro-White campaigns? Also, the ludicrous thing about your point is both of those candidates were explicitly and almost shamefully pro-Jewish in their stances and you cite this as evidence that the good Jews are on our side? Don’t make me laugh.
I agree. They’re utter hypocrites.

Yeah Neocons have to be pied-pipers leading patriotic Euros down a sewer. Simply supporting Israel, and even a muscular foreign policy, doesn’t cut the mustard if you’re going to give aid and comfort to the enemy (support nationalism and sanity on borders for Euro populations, fair trade, etc.).
Yeah, they’re still doing it. It’s funny to me: “you’re an ANTI-SEMITE!!! because you let a Jew call another Jew a renegade Jew!!!” Yeah, sure buddy.
Sort of like how slaveholders were likely overwhelmingly good Christians toward their compliant slaves, but not so much toward the uppity ones, who probably terrified them.

It’s the same in Australia. It was a WASP supposedly conservative prime minister, Malcolm Fraser, who unleashed multiculturalism upon us in the late 70s. Jews are a tiny minority here. Jewish groups do agitate in favour of multiculturalism and mass immigration but there are so few of them their influence is pretty marginal. Mostly they’re so insignificant that nobody notices them.
In Australia it’s whites who have pursued national suicide. We have nobody to blame but ourselves.
In Britain it was done partly out of confusion post-empire, partly out of desire for some cheaper labor in mill towns, and it was kept at levels that were too high, but barely tolerable till Tony Blair arrived. In Canada, immigr/multicult was adapted by a combo of French-Irish-Jewish activists who were resentful of, & wanted to demolish the Anglo & Tory hegemony in certain areas. It was also done to suppress Quebec separatism (read vdare).
In Australia, it was probably done to curry favor with western elites in Europe, North America. I suspect it was also an Irish-Jewish alliance that agitated for it behind the scenes. Keating would have been in favor for sure since he resented pre-1970 Australia. Fraser sounds like an effete, pompous blowhard who was virtue signalling to the sociology faculties & editorial boards.

I would be OK with some restrictions on voting:
Men: Acquire the right to vote upon completion of military service (yeah, I got the idea from Starship Troopers).And by completion, I mean honorable discharge. Loss of voting rights after getting divorced, having a child out of wedlock, or being convicted of a felony.
Women: Acquire the right to vote after giving birth in wedlock. Loss of voting rights after getting a divorce, having a child out of wedlock, or being convicted of a felony.
And loss of voting rights after getting divorced? So your wife sleeps with a couple of dozen other men and when you've finally had enough and you get a divorce you lose your right to vote? Or your husband runs off with a floozy half his age and leaves you with the kids and you lose your right to vote?
The only sensible and safe restriction on the franchise would be to raise the minimum voting age to 25. That's the only method that is not open to abuse, it's totally fair (it would apply to everybody), and it would solve most of our problems.

It’s an incredibly dangerous road to go down.
Loss of voting rights after being convicted of a felony can easily be extended to loss of voting rights after being convicted of Thought Crime.

Exactly. It’s a complex issue.
There may have been signs even before WW I that things were going wrong. But I haven’t studied up on it. I’m not even sure where I’d start.
But one thing is clear at the present time: the continuing trend of blaming Jews is a big problem for trying to build a movement that is a respectable alternative to currently accepted conservatism (or right wing, or however you want to define it).
It’s bad enough that the entire left is demonizing us, calling us white supremacists and neo-Nazis. But we can’t even get our own “side” to agree on what exactly we are.
We all seem to agree that mass immigration to the point where we become minorities in our countries is no good. We don’t want it.
So the argument over Jews divides us and makes it much harder to articulate a common position and work towards political power.
That’s why on a number of times I’ve tried to argue with people over the Jew fixation. But I’ve never succeeded, although I try to be polite and not attack people. But some people feel so strongly that after even after a most politely worded statement, I’ve been told to just eff off.
Can’t they see that I’m largely sympathetic to their concerns and at least not start swearing at me? They’re treating me as if I am their sworn enemy simply over the issue of Jews.
If the aim is to create a political movement that might gain real influence then we have to be realistic. Certain positions are just political poison. Blaming Jews for everything is one such position.
HBD is another. If we want to argue against immigration then there are powerful economic, social, cultural and environmental arguments on our side. But any argument that sounds like a claim that some races are inherently superior to others is political suicide.Replies: @Frau Katze
