In this terrible, morally inverted world the Democrats have deconstructed for us, the French are exposing American immorality, oppression and disunity.
France Might Yet Lead the West Against Wokeism
France is officially focused entirely on the integration of its entire population into a cosmopolitan French whole, and in a peculiar arc of alliance between nationalist academics, intellectuals, and conservative politicians, all are warning against the importation of what they regard as degenerate and self-destructive American academic faddishness.
Story continues below advertisementFrance has been warned by its leaders from Right to Left to beware of what is effectively referred to as the latest manifestation of American madness (a phenomenon the French profess to have identified many times since the Marquis de LaFayette assisted General George Washington in securing the surrender of the British at Yorktown in 1781).
The French president became so exercised by comments in the New York Times critical of what was described as the repression by France of Muslims that he telephoned and upbraided a senior Times officer for misrepresenting his policy of “universalism,” which he declared to be the unification of all citizens regardless of their ethnicity or sectarian attachment.
In October, he had announced a series of measures to combat “radical Islamism,” including placing direct government control on mosques, requiring that Muslim clergy are trained and certified in France, and banning Muslim apparel that disguises identity and overstates a religious affiliation.
Monsieur Macron has dismissed the criticism of Amnesty International and others. Large numbers of eminent French academics and journalists have supported the president and been severely critical of what they regard as the moral disintegration of America. France will not be a party to any notion of white self-criticism on grounds of privilege and is unabashed in its expressed belief that the West and France, in particular, has been a civilizing influence in the world, though certainly not without fault.
The new head of the Paris Opera, one of the greatest in the world, Alexander Neef, has been criticized for issuing a statement to Opera personnel urging diversity. Because Neef spent 10 years very successfully at the Toronto Opera Company, he is alleged by many in France to have inhaled and become somewhat intoxicated by spurious American notions of white self-hate.
[the_ad id=”110283″]
Mr. Neef defends himself cogently, but the fact that even exalted French academics and the apparent majority of French intellectual society and the French press dislike and resist contemporary American concepts of sharply formulated white self-criticism may be taken as the beginning of a countercultural trend.
I have predicted here before that in dealing with Islamic-related problems in the West, we would be led by the French. For better or worse, France is the most experienced Western country in managing Arab questions — from 1848 to 1963, Algeria was not a colony but a Department (province) of France itself.
France was also for many years the colonial power in both Morocco and Tunisia, and it governed many other Arabs in Africa as well as, between 1919 and 1948, Syria and Lebanon. There were more than 1 million ethnic French in Algeria when that country was granted independence after a brutal war between 1954 and 1962, in which approximately 750,000 people died (about as many as in the U.S. Civil War).
At the end of that conflict, the French leader, General Charles de Gaulle, had little choice but to admit to France not only the returning French but also those Arabs who had been loyal to friends, to prevent their outright massacre at the hands of the Algerian revolutionary leaders. This was the quick launch of the Muslim presence in France and is the explanation for why there are more Muslim Arabs in France than in any other entirely European country (about 3.5 million, or 5.4% of the population).
This fact and the worldly, cynical, and somewhat feline nature of the French is the reason that country has in some respects been the most advanced Western nation in adjusting to the demographic advances of Muslims in the West and the rise of Muslim militancy in the world.
The French, almost since Julius Caesar began their transformation from a race of barbarous Gauls to the forerunners of the ultra-sophisticated French civilization and culture of modern times, have been a nation that could intellectually rationalize almost anything.
The people who said when the Nazis invaded on May 10, 1940, in the words of Premier Paul Reynaud, “We will fight to the last man and the last cartridge,” and when the succeeding government signed a dishonorable armistice with Germany just five weeks later, the byword was “Better Hitler than Blum” (a French Jewish politician), have no trouble explaining radical policy changes.
To admire or even understand the French one should like cats — the French, too, are elegant, highly intelligent, self-preoccupied, and unselfconscious. Because it was thrust upon them and because their national character when severely challenged is less hesitant to take radical measures than the Anglo-Saxons, I have always been confident that they would show the way forward in managing the delicate and complicated relationship between Western and Islamic societies.
The country of Cardinal Richelieu, Louis XIV, Robespierre and the Committee of Public Safety, Napoleon, and de Gaulle knows its mind. Once threatened in their enjoyment of their splendidly rich and beautiful land with its magnificent food, wine, and culture, the French would not pause over the niceties of the country’s purported ideals of “liberty, equality, and fraternity”; would not be hobbled or inhibited by Anglo-Saxon notions of fairness or propriety, and with a minimum of temporizing, the French could surely be relied upon to act decisively where others wobbled and fidgeted.
France has acted boldly to assimilate its Muslim population, mainly concentrated in urban ghettos. The French education system has gone to great lengths to assimilate these people to French values and culture without interfering with their religious freedom (apart from suppressing overt subversion by the Muslim clergy). Prodigious efforts have been made to improve their standard of living and incentivize them to see and respond to the allure of the country where they reside.
Since the shocking attacks of Charlie Hebdo and other incidents five and six years ago, the combination of the positive measures and the often heavy-handed imposition of public security has reduced the incidence of racial and sectarian violence, though there was a revival last autumn, to which Mr. Macron has responded forcefully, with an eye on the presidential election next year.
France has shaken the world many times in its history and is frequently insouciant about the consequences of its political actions. Some of its security measures and intellectual attitudes may be too authoritarian for the advanced English-speaking countries, but the bold self-confidence of its rulers and always influential and prestigious cultural and media leaders are a model that should be useful in conducting the West out of its present profound torpor of self-doubt and self-dislike.

White privilege is NOT the problem.
IGNORANCE AND THE UNEDUCATED ARE THE PROBLEM.
Antifa, the Antichrist Obama and Biden are the problem.
And Hunter.
The USA must come to heel.
The USA can’t keem on ramming through the Antichrist’s policies and get away with it BECAUSE WE’LL STAND UP. Ignore the Gellers posters: they all work for Satan Obama the Antichrist..
Why do people blame USA for white privileges’ when USA fight every man and his dogs battles e.g. middle east, Vietnam (whether they wanted to or not), WW2. i mean come on!!!????? stop already with the white privilege’s. everyone wants white privilege’s and t heir black or brown and dye their hair red or blonde. give us a break will ya.
Block him (like I did a while back), he’s basically irredeemable.
Obama troll spotted. They’re infesting the board here.
Watch out because Wikipedia says trolls are mentally ill and responding to them only makes their illness worse.
“Deny trolls recognition” (Wiki)
I agree. Ignore the Obama bots heckling here. Why does the USA wage all these wars non stop. I agree that Trump said he was proud of not starting any new wars and pulling back the troops during his four years instead.
Agreed. Both world wars, of which we are the two time champions, started in Europe.
It’s evident, white privilege is not free governments hand-puts, it’s the guts to pick yourself up and make the best of bad situations without whining about how much better someone else is doing than you because of their ‘privilege’.
It looks like we have a bad situation now.
Those are GREAT !!! Thank you, AR !!!!!
Seems the many times the Blessed are somewhat quick to forget +/or ignore what’s been done for them at great cost.
HOWEVER
Even here in America just IF generation’s of young are not told of, shown and indepth explained when, what where + why = HOW can they then know..?
IF this is done intentionally like here with unConstitutionally EO’d – Fed.Ed Dept. w/Marxist NEA it is an act of TREASON of the worst kind = from within as WE watched having allowed it with OUR own children…!
Especially with the perverted bilge now dumped on children shoved into Public Screw-L dumpster’s of trash “education” which is clearly Marxist indoctrination and outright perverted habituation meant to degrade them into mental and spiritual immorality = super poor citizens(sheople) but merely regurgitating “useful idiots”…!
This is not their fault it is OURS for having allowed it..!
Socialism is first by vote and then by force. The result is the same – slavery, genocide and societal decay
I think people were required by law to vote in the USSR, but who they could vote for consisted entirely of a pre-selected group of Communist party apparatchiks.
Macron is our enemy. The ruling families of France are our enemies. The ruling families across Europe are our enemies. They are all joined at the same bank. The old ruling families see freedom as a much greater threat than Islam. They embraced Islam to get rid of all opposition to global rule by privileged bloodlines.
Marcon is too stupid to be an enemy. Another thing is that now all fools have become leading politicians and it is not possible to displace them peacefully .They will not be re-elected. No normal elections have been given in Europe for a very long time. In the US, elections was stolen.
A fool who has achieved absolute power is worse than any enemy
A traitor is the worst enemy.
Fools don’t rule for long. Sometimes ruler play fools so they don’t appear to be the threat that they are.
Justin Truda has served as Prime Minister of Canada since 2015. It’s long for a fool like Justin Trudeau
Yes well just realize “someone” pulls the strings of such puppets.
NAILED IT…!!!
“The the root of all Evil is the Love of money” – for
“You cannot serve both God and mammon”
This for the power and control great wealth engenders which human nature easily embraces without the Spirit of God = the 1st cabal of Oldtime “televangelist’s” called the Pharisee’s/”money changers” whom Jesus literally drove out of His “Church” with a whip.
They’d learned to make money out of thin air bypassing the foolish alchemist’s- to eventually perfect it to its extreme via the then merely theoretical concept of a fiat monetary system Democ-rats illegally installed here under foreign control in 1913 [guess who] which of course is why the Republican’ts are RINO’s and the S.C. is owned also…!
To any and all FOOLS in the world who still refer to this Muslim Marxist black-supremacist racist of indeterminant sexuality as a “great man”, get your heads out of your behinds and commit to reality instead of your “woke” virtue-signaling asininity!
Perhaps you need to consider the same on the topic of homosexuality.
Your perverted virtue waving flags are ridiculous too.
There is nothing honorable, natural or normal about LBGTQ+. but this is what you advocate for because you are a lesbian. It’s not my fault you are male hetero-phobic.
LBGTQ+ is simply vile and wrong and a choice. When it is rammed down the throats of little innocent kids, I find it exceptionally offensive and vile. Yes, yes I know, you are all for abortions anytime for any reason – so typical….of LBGTQ+.
Correct felix tho this is not to take away anyones humanity only point out “wrong thinking that’s harmful to the whole” where ever it’s found and steer it peacefully toward what really formed the platform of core values America formed and was built on of which those Principles have carried us thru til they were slowly abandoned as did the ancient Israelites.
The concept and Spirit creating Americanism which fruited into reality could ONLY have come from and be maintained by a morally virtuous grasp and pursuit from beyond the character intrinsically found in the natural mind of man.
The successful culture and society seen only in and embraced by OUR Founders and Framers came thru in the connecting into the Word and Spirit of the one true living God = no man conceived other ideology nor system has or could have been brought into enduring existence long enuff to bear fruit.
The fundamental ethics and moral connection can only emminate from what transcends what WE find within ourselves in to come into such a precarious place maintained only by that connection as a culture, society and nation as One Nation Under God = why WE swear an Oath of Allegiance to such a nation with OUR hand on the Scriptures.
Of course this is intuitively understood within those having “Ears to hear and eyes to see”…!
Was this the Bataclan massacre? Or some other muslum atrocity in Fwance?
The country is full of great cathedrals and very few Christians. They are glad when muslims burn them down so they are not reminded of their Christian history.
Sadly they do not even know…!
they regard as degenerate and self-destructive American academic faddishness.
Jacques Derrida’s ghost is breathing an enormous sigh of relief!
The French as saviors of Western Civilization? Don’t make me laugh.
At least the French correctly identify the origin of the cancer killing America —- the “philosophers” and the “intellectuals” teaching at the universities.
Objectivism taught at American universities is and will be the answer, even if it takes centuries to get there, and Objectivism is thoroughly American.
“In the history of mankind it is earlier than we think.” – Ayn Rand
Well France is fighting for the west? If you look at French military successes without Napoleon this does NOT inspire confidence.
Ridiculous article . . . I laughed out loud at some of the points: The “feline nature” of the French and the “ultra-sophisticated French civilization and culture of modern times.”
“To admire or even understand the French one should like cats — the French, too, are elegant, highly intelligent, self-preoccupied, and unselfconscious.” LOL
Blah, blah, blah.
Look, France did not “lead the way” in absorbing its Muslim population. It was caught totally by surprise not only by the number of immigrants but by their complete unwillingness to assimilate. (Just like America.)
France has not “in some respects been the most advanced Western nation in adjusting to the demographic advances of Muslims in the West and the rise of Muslim militancy in the world” unless by “adjustment” you mean allowing itself to be conquered from the inside out. France has led the world in shamefully allowing itself to be colonized by Muslims. That’s hardly the example we Americans want to follow.
Just like they lacked the guts to fight in 1940, the French lacked the guts to protect its land from Muslim colonizers. We Americans need to do the exact opposite.
Doubt me? Go visit Paris this summer. Take a stroll through a Muslim neighborhood and see what happens.
None of the powers that be were “caught by surprise”. They knew exactly what they were injecting into western civilization when they decided to embrace Islam. The whitewashing of Islam (by academia/MSM across western civilization), so Muslims could be imported and used as a proxy army, started a century ago when oil became a fuel. Western civilization is being poisoned and gutted by the tyrants who “own” it. The French elite, the European elite, and the Democrats, are all the same monster.
There shouldn’t be a Muslim on western soil, especially our soil.
If this were so then why did the West hand over the oil to the barbarian Muslims? Why did the West’s elite not simply keep the oil to themselves? It is not RATIONAL SELFISHNESS that is destroying the West but SUICIDAL ALTRUISM that is destroying the West.
“Fifty years of increasing American appeasement in the Mideast have led to fifty years of increasing contempt in the Muslim world for the U.S. The climax was September 11, 2001.
Fifty years ago, Truman and Eisenhower surrendered the West’s property rights in oil, although that oil rightfully belonged to those in the West whose science, technology, and capital made its discovery and use possible. The first country to nationalize Western oil, in 1951, was Iran. The rest, observing our frightened silence, hurried to grab their piece of the newly available loot.
The cause of the U.S. silence was not practical, but philosophical. The Mideast’s dictators were denouncing wealthy egotistical capitalism. They were crying that their poor needed our sacrifice; that oil, like all property, is owned collectively, by virtue of birth; and that they knew their viewpoint was true by means of otherworldly emotion. Our Presidents had no answer. Implicitly, they were ashamed of the Declaration of Independence. They did not dare to answer that Americans, properly, were motivated by the selfish desire to achieve personal happiness in a rich, secular, individualist society.
The Muslim countries embodied in an extreme form every idea–selfless duty, anti-materialism, faith or feeling above science, the supremacy of the group–which our universities, our churches, and our own political Establishment had long been upholding as virtue. When two groups, our leadership and theirs, accept the same basic ideas, the most consistent side wins.” – Objectivist philosopher Leonard Peikoff from his essay “End States That Sponsor Terrorism”
https://peikoff.com/essays_and_articles/end-states-who-sponsor-terrorism/
When oil became a fuel, the tyrants of the day saw the keys to global conquest. The tyrants who wanted this place from the start intended to rule the world, and it’s not possible to do so if the USA is a free, prosperous, powerful, sovereign nation. They had no intention of letting us prosper beyond their ability to force us into submission. The only thing they care about is their dominance and global conquest.
The USA has been used as a work horse ($) and warhorse (conquest called defense). They planned to smear the name of freedom with blood and betrayal and failure, and then murder us. Muslims are so eager to help destroy the west, that they positioned themselves to take the blame for someone else’s murder. Oh well, they have to go sooner or later.
The FED and associated family owned/operated central banks are holding hands with the Muslim oil producers to control the global availability and price of oil. The lie that oil comes from dead dinosaurs and plants was already a “fact” or “accepted theory” by the mid 40s. That lie raised the price of oil by suggesting there is a very limited supply, and sent us to the ME to buy oil and protect their oil as if we actually needed it. We were supposed to run out of oil here a long time ago, but we didn’t because the supply story was a lie. As more oil was discovered they had to come up with another reason for the USA to avoid using our own oil (or any oil). That reason they came up with was another lie called the greenhouse effect. A greenhouse effect is not possible in our atmosphere. There is no such thing as a greenhouse gas. This is to limit our prosperity and power and sovereignty. There’s a long game in progress that includes a lot of lies and deceptions.
Muslims imitate Mohammed. Muslims are the problem with Muslim nations. They will despise us and seek our destruction until Mohammed changes his mind, and he’s dead. No one alive can change his mind. You’re reversing the motivation behind the Muslims. They cause their own misery to create migrations of “oppressed” Mohammedans. They migrate to conquer while playing victim. The current migration (invasion) into the west was by invitation, and it wasn’t out of concern for oppressed people.
Hear, hear well written! The great thing is you didn’t use twenty dollar words like the supercilious sycophants of islum do.
One poor mother lost both her beloved daughters there felix, another young woman was pregnant when murdered. The ” woke ” would rather not discuss that night.
That is so sad….
They wouldn’t let families see the bodies because they were so mutilated but a few managed to do so. It was horrendous. I can’t imagine being stifled to go along with their vile agenda.
Well that’s because the “woke” never discuss anything ~
ie = you’d actually have to know something to have an intelligent discussion about knowledgeable subjects and that takes a lot of dedicated time, effort and work to do.
The lazy would rather not be bothered and so flock together and crow only known taught PC dogma to merely regurgitate it unto themselves = “newspeak” which is discusting to see acted out by fools who know nothing of relevance but are in positions of control or worse in authority…!
These same things elected Macron. Our “president” is an enemy combatant.
I must admit that when I was fifteen and struggling to deliver feed to hungry sheep through deep snow and on foot six hundred feet up on the South Downs, I didn’t feel particularly privileged, I just felt exhausted cold and wet when I got home.
The scarcity of my racial and political moral betters helping me on those days was noticeable.
If anyone is interested in dealing with this issue of WP when it’s directed at them, it’s this, the answer lies in clearer rational thinking delivered with force and fearlessness.
What is being delivered is nothing less than the demonization straight from the Marxist rule book of only white, conservative people for being the wrong political colour and suspected of less than Steller credentials when it comes to being progressive {and especially ” woke “}.
The excuses and PC ” Issues ” loved by the hard left can be legion and include defund the police, BLM, ANTIFA, green new deal, WP, the white patriarchy, hate speech, the very old chestnut ” racism “, etc etc. The issues can be developed add infinitum, but they remain the matadors cape, waved in your face so that you waste time arguing the wrong point.
As we say in UK, cut to the chase, reject their anti white racist arguments for what they are when you’re fed up with being their whipping boy.
The right point is that being hard working, moderately successful and of independent thought, you remain a “problem ” for society because you cling to your gun your conservativism and your self reliance.
Those are the virtues the left cannot stand and will not tolerate in others.
There’s lots of hard work in a stagnant economy, so the socialists do love soul-breaking hard work. 12 hours standing in line for a loaf of bread is soul-breaking hard work.
“Collectivism does not preach sacrifice as a temporary means to some desirable end. Sacrifice is its end—sacrifice as a way of life. It is man’s independence, success, prosperity, and happiness that collectivists wish to destroy.” – Ayn Rand
Self-sacrifice was and is hardly the province of the politburo — neither the ChiCom elite nor the elite in the USSR suffered any privation whatsoever. After all the Dictatorship of the Proletariat requires someone operate as the dictator.
Any Rand is all about extreme SELFISHNESS and MONEY and money was her god.
No, Felix, Ayn Rand is NOT about extreme selfishness (whatever that means), but about RATIONAL SELFISHNESS, of course you’ll never know what Ayn Rand means by rational selfishness because you’ve never read any of her books, and you refuse to. You’re an IGNORANT and STUPID BIGOT when it comes to Ayn Rand and her philosophy of Objectivism!
Here is “Francisco’s Money Speech” from “Atlas Shrugged” explaining the profound morality that money represents, of course you’ll never read it, and if you ever did you don’t have the intelligence to understand it anyway, but to anyone who may come along and read this in justice to Ayn Rand, I’ll post it —-

Your ignorance about the subject you speak of is profoundly….sad.
And bear the oh so terrible burden of living that luxurious life too.
Here in America, our welfare recipients could not be expected to endure the hardship that you did. Besides, they’d rather play on their iPads, a right enshrined in our Constitution (it’s actually in the Bill of Rights, or emanations from the penumbra thereof).
Poppey, we didn’t have this imaginary white privilege either. We had to work for every thing we have a deal with the usual unfairness in life. Merit is like using the
“n word.” It’s just soft bigotry for minorities and they are dumb enough to eat it up and they literally covet what you have…..It’s sick out there….
I know you care about kids and babies…. Shame on these overly self righteous social liberals. Always defending them with false self righteousness and being advocates…. False piety is a total turn off.
NOW look what is happening! They are ingraining this perversion onto 3-5 year-olds. Songs are great learning devices…and they know it. they are brainwashing them and tempting the vulnerable. They are totally screwing up these kids….
It’s in their alphabet book too!
I can’t imagine being a parent today with all this evil being thrust on little kids…..
I can wait ’til the muslums crush them like bugs. It’s really the only thing to look forward to in an islamic future.
why do U think islam means submit!
Because it does.
I don’t know… it’s between Communism and Islam….
Neither one will tolerate LGBTQ+.
I too have often thought that the only plus to an islamic move would be the settling of this entire diversity issue…permanently. Too bad western civilization doesn’t have the cajones to do it.
You’re right felix, I care very deeply about them, and the things I read cut me deeper than anything else. Once I needed protection too and it was slow in coming. I remember.
I can relate to that….and why I am especially incensed with abusing kids and defenseless babies….It’s so wicked out there….
Speaking of abusing kids…..Oregon is calling math white priv now. As if its not tough enough for minority students, now they want to send them into world not knowing how to count their change at the cash register, or do their own taxes, or a dozen other things we all take for granted.
Q: Why does Paris have tree-lined streets?
A: So the Nazis can march in the shade.
Sad but – “That’s funny right there”.
for the truth of it.
YET WE have placated them since OUR “War of Independence”…!
that was the 20th century, in the 21st century the answer may well be:
So the muslums can pray in the shade.
To defend the preposterous dogma of socialism/communism the “left” has to resort to equally preposterous (and childish) tactics. Socialists are invariably lazy, work shy scroungers and will resort to every devious means to defend the indefeasibility of their wretched cause.
What a socialists really hate is hard work (and hard working people)!
Yes they use them to then later cast them aside as “useful-idiots” and mere refuse = Stalin and the rest of the monster tyrant heads of the Marxist “ant heaps, forcing people into abject slavery…!
Look at the hands of these politicians when they are on TV. They soft and small. None have done any hard work.
You’re wrong socialists love hard work, ARBEIT MACHT FREI.
How many millions have been worked to death by Hitler, Stalin, Castro, Mao, Pol Pot, et al?
What socialists hate is the man of independence, ability, and competence, on any level, to any degree, whether a taxi-driver or a Henry Ford.
“The advocates of collectivism are motivated not by a desire for men’s happiness, but by hatred for man . . . hatred of the good for being the good; . . . the focus of that hatred, the target of its passionate fury, is the man of ability.” – Ayn Rand
I think you will find the expression “cut to the chase” comes from the American film industry. It means get to the cop chase of the criminals, or in modern terms get to the main point.
So very well and candidly said, Poppey! Beautiful! Right on target, the truth to which I can testify after hard life experiences. The notion of ‘white privilege’, apart from being rubbish and a lie is embraced by imbecilic white liberals and leftists of the politically correct variety, but particularly black racists anxious to explain why whites have generally done better with their lives than they have. I am beyond understanding why whites in Western countries swallow and fall for the WP rubbish. Unfashionable clear thinking truly does expose reality.
I long ago asked myself from what ‘white privilege’ I benefitted after in 1987 arriving in Canada from South Africa with my English wife from Kent. Unlike arrivals from Third World countries we got zero help and, if anything, because in 1987 Canada was on a big (and hypocritical) anti-South Africa campaign over apartheid, life was made quite difficult. And this after me for ten years, 1977 to 1987, through newspapers speaking out against apartheid injustices!
Six years later, while out with my son as part of his 11th birthday present, my wife died in our home that had become raging inferno – after which members of 5 bureaucracies either lied or covered up. It took almost 3 1/2 months of hard effort on my behalf to establish what had gone wrong. In that process I discovered that Dawn had phoned 911 for help and it had failed utterly. No thanks to anyone other than myself and an investigative journalist, it took 13 months to force an inquest during which, on my own, I embarrassed members of the 5 bureaucracies. I then pursued restitution. Disgracefully the matter ended almost 11 years later.
So, after that setback who and what helped me dig my family out of a financial hole? White privilege? It didn’t ever exist. It came from hard and honest effort on my behalf, nothing else.
Deepest condolences Rob, we too have known a similar tragedy and like you we prevailed in the struggle for justice but it was always our will power driving certain professional help.
We too are pioneers, our place, a bungalow in two acres transformed over a twenty four year period from a weed infested dump to a place everyone admires. Our joint best wishes for your futures.
Thanks Poppey, must say I like your style for speaking out as you did regarding supposedly ‘sensitive racial issues’ – that I don’t bother to treat with sensitivity because most of it is fabricated rubbish. A few hard knocks in life hardens one to nonsense.
Can you believe that in the U.S. rubbish based on BLM doctrine is going to be taught in some schools?
The French are right to consider that American society has largely lost its marbles. In reality a lot of North American white liberals have gone mental, without an ounce of intelligent thought accepting every disparagement thrown at them by anti-white black racists, like those of Black Lives Matter, and other non-white individuals whether East Indian or Oriental. Some American blacks want reparations for slavery. Oh yes, so I guess then that China and Russia should demand reparations from Mongolia for Ghekis Khan’s destruction of their cities, murder of millions and enslavement of citizens. India, Afghanistan, Syria and Israel should demand reparations from Saudi Arabia for the invasion of their countries, murder of millions and enslavement. Likewise Egypt and Spain. South-eastern Europe should demand reparations from Turkey for the Ottoman Empire’s invasion, occupation and enslavements of Europeans. The notion that only black Africans suffered slavery stems from gross ignorance that drives much of BLM rubbish and racism.
It’s good to read that you made good out of difficult circumstances. I have a daughter and her family living in N-W London, Hertfordshire, a brother in Kent and in-laws in Tunbridge Wells.
Poppey is a treasure!
Wow, Rob. Quite a story. As for South Africa, tribal dominance is only evil when the dominant tribe is white.
Thank you for sharing this.
Liatris, yes indeed, “tribal dominance is only evil when the dominant tribe is white”, and now that it is black, corrupt and incompetent, it’s glaring anti-white racial discrimination and murder of white farming families is ignored by the hypocritical and selectively outraged Western world.
I know it was right to speak out against racial injustice, but I think you can understand why I now sometimes wonder why I bothered.
Very disturbing to hear so anguishing an occurence to be in.
Tho you well know had you been one of the proletariate under a Marxist regime the politburo would’ve been stone cold silent where if you caused a disturbance you and your son would’ve disappeared one night.
Or false charges would be brought so to cover up your disappearance later…!
No doubt Turdeau would foolishly help usher in such a reality whether he fully understands the full horror of the ramifications or not…!
I just watched Larry Elder’s ‘Uncle Tom’ documentary. They all tell about being told they were a victim in school, including college and of course the media. Charlotte Iserbyt tells on Deliberate Dumbing Down of America book and youtube talks in detail about how our schools were taken over by the elite marxist agenda, ‘Uncle Tom’ tells how the black victimhood was all apart of it. Black and white relations were great in the 70s and early 80s then it changed and I always wondered why, now I know, it is strategized to divide us and distract us from the evil ones. What is anti-racism??? It is to not see color at all- not to judge by the color of the skin but by the character and merit of each person. Therefore this movement is by definition racist. Thomas Sowell, world’s best economist who happens to be black and an elder, explains beautifully why diversity quotas and the like hurt everyone, but especially black people.
Have you noticed that so-called ‘conservative media’ have conspired to remain silent to the Asian ‘privilege’ success story? That’s because so-called ‘conservative media’ – the Marxist ‘false opposition’* – would then upset the Marxist race divisiveness agenda…
ASIAN PRIVILEGE MUST BE STAMPED OUT! TIME FOR WHITES, BLACKS AND LATINOS TO FIGHT AGAINST ASIAN RACISM!
Asians don’t need special help to get by in the United States, they merely took the opportunity that the United States provides to become the highest income earners.
English Americans have a median salary of $47,663, ranking this ethnic group at #85. Indian (sub-continent) Americans earn a median income of $123,453, the top income earning ethnic group in America. Second place goes to Taiwanese, at $102,328. In third place, Filipino at $92,328. In 6th place are Chinese Americans, at $80,944. Japanese Americans are at 8th place, earning a median income of $80,036. And the children of the Vietnamese Boat People? They, ironically, come in at #46, with $67,331, $19,668 more than the #85 ranked English Americans’ average income of $67,331!

There’s no need for special privileges in the United States, except for Marxists who need to promote ethnic and gender divisiveness.
* “Trust but VERIFY” – President Ronald Reagan’s watch phrase when dealing with the USSR…
(1) The West conspired to not VERIFY the ‘collapse’ of the USSR, even though the survival of the West depended on verification should the ‘collapse’ be a ruse, which proves (1) there was no ‘collapse’ of the USSR, because if there had been a ‘collapse’ the West would have immediately VERIFIED the ‘collapse’; and (2) the West’s institutions were co-opted by Marxists, explaining the West’s enabling of the fake ‘collapse’ of the USSR…quod erat demonstrandum.

In fact, there already was an anti-Marxist force in Russia at the time that if ordered would have conquered all of Bolshevik Russia during this period when the Bolsheviks were very weak. The unit was the 60,000 strong Czechoslovak Legion (soon to be 100,000 strong) but instead of sending the legion 700 miles north to Petrograd, the Allies sent it on a 6,000 mile odyssey across Russia to Vladivostok for evacuation to Europe(!), once again proving the Allies knew they were going to win the war…that the war was a Marxist operation.*

Hey Dean . . . you missed the Part about the New York Bankers sending a ship filled with Millions in Gold Bullion to Moscow in 1917 to fund the Bolchiviks . . . Paul Warburg working for JP Morgan arranged for the shipment to go right through the German lines to Moscow.
The Insane US left actually funded the creation of the Soviet Union.
Pres. Woodrow KKK Wilson would have been all on board. A tool of the Globalists even back then . . .
“Hey Dean . . . you missed the Part about the New York Bankers sending a ship filled with Millions in Gold Bullion to Moscow in 1917 to fund the Bolchiviks . .”
Yes…at the behest of the Marxist establishment. Again, when in 1914 the establishment press conspired to remain silent to the refusal of the British to mine the Danish Straits, thereby incapacitating any entry of Germany into the war, we have proof positive for the Marxist co-option of the West’s institutions. The establishment press runs the ideological spectrum, thereby identifying the ‘false opposition’ ‘conservative press’ at the time. Remember, the Republican Party was co-founded in 1854 by Marxists who actually knew Marx…
“Everyone now is more or less a Socialist.” – Charles Dana, managing editor of the New-York Tribune, and
Lincoln’s last Assistant Secretary of War, 1848.
Dana’s admission in 1848 covers the Democratic and Whig Party’s, there was no Republican Party for another six years.
Karl Marx’s largest source of income from work throughout the 1850s and early 1860s was derived from Dana’s New-York Tribune. Dana had met Marx in 1848 and was impressed by Marx’s observations on the contemporary European situation. The New-York Tribune was the dominant newspaper of the Republican Party through the 1860s.
Brigadier General Joseph Weydemeyer of the Union Army was a close friend of Karl Marx and Fredrick Engels in the London Communist League. Assistant Secretary of War Charles A. Dana, close friend of Marx, published with Joseph Weydemyer a number of Communist journals and, also “The Communist Manifesto,” commissioned by Karl Marx. As a member of the Communist/Socialist Fourier Society in America, Dana was well acquainted with Marx and Marx’s colleague in Communism, Fredrick Engels. Dana, also, was a friend of all Marxists in the Republican Party, offering assistance to them almost upon their arrival on the American continent.
The disastrous 1848 Marxist revolutions that swept Western Europe taught Marxists the lesson that open confrontation was contrary to The Struggle’s survival, so infiltration/blackmail became the tools for The Struggle. What is The Struggle? The Struggle is the “abolition of religion”, and the destruction of those civilizations “whose spiritual aroma is religion”:
Critique of Hegel’s Philosophy of Right, Karl Marx (1843)
“The struggle against religion is, therefore, indirectly the struggle against that world whose spiritual aroma is religion.”
“The abolition of religion as the illusory happiness of the people is required for their real happiness. The demand to give up the illusion about its condition is the demand to give up a condition which needs illusions.”
“It is, therefore, the task of history, once the other-world of truth has vanished, to establish the truth of this world.”
Now you know what Socialists/Marxists are referring to when they mention The Struggle:
“The struggle against religion is, therefore, indirectly the struggle against that world whose spiritual aroma is religion.”
Hence how…

You just made my point!
“So Poland & Hungary are not free states today ? ? ? ?”
There was no de-communization in Poland (and the ‘former’ USSR); and in Yugoslavia…
During the period of ’glasnost’ Soviet authorities released false numbers for communist party membership. However, those fudged numbers weren’t what one would expect. Instead of attempting to shore up a crumbling political establishment by inflating communist party membership, Soviet authorities instead deflated the real numbers in order to give credence to a ’collapsing’ political system; communist party membership continued to climb throughout the ‘glasnost’ period, as detailed in the article, House of Cards: The Collapse of the ‘Collapse’ of the USSR.
The same subterfuge was taking place in the East Bloc nations, as illustrated in the case of Yugoslavia. The Library of Congress Federal Research Division 1990 Area Handbook Series study on Yugoslavia informs us regarding the League of Communists of Yugoslavia (LCY), the name of Yugoslavia‘s sole political party:
LCY membership decreased slightly in the 1980s. The last increase
was recorded in 1982, and in 1988 membership fell below 2 million
for the first time since 1979.1
The Library of Congress informs us that the last increase in LCY membership occurred in 1982 and that the actual number fell below 2 million in 1988. Since the last increase in LCY membership took place in 1982, then LCY membership couldn’t rise above its “below 2 million’ figure after 1988, unless, of course, the figures presented were being manipulated. And manipulated the figures were.
Incredibly in the same study the Library of Congress has access to the real numbers for LCY membership, inadvertently included in the study’s coverage of the LCY’s 1990 Fourteenth Party Congress:
The Fourteenth Party Congress included 1,688 delegates, of
which 994 were elected by local commune party conferences (1
delegate per 2,000 party members).2
So let’s do the math to determine if the LCY more or less maintained its “below 2 million” membership number count in 1990…
1,688 X 2,000 = 3,376,000
Wouldn’t you know it, a whopping 40.75% increase in LCY membership throughout the 1980s, and as in the USSR example, in preparation for the fraudulent ‘collapse‘ of communism in Yugoslavia. Throughout 1980s LCY membership was massively increasing in numbers, not decreasing as the Marxist co-opted Library of Congress would have us believe.
Addendum
Communist Control Of Yugoslav ‘Civil Wars’
The massive increase in numerical strength of the LCY allowed for scripted and controlled dirty wars between ‘secessionist’ Orthodox, Catholic and Muslim factions during the Yugoslav Wars, 1991-2001, where the religious factions conspired to not wipe out the 9% of the population that attempted to do away with religion altogether in Yugoslavia, proving the wars were orchestrated and controlled by the communist faction:
Like in most former Communist countries in Central, Eastern
and South-Eastern Europe, the means and actions applied by
the Yugoslav Government between 1945 and 1990 to reduce
the influence of religions and religious organisations were
quite effective: While there was just a tiny group of people
who regarded themselves to be without a religion before the
Second World War (less than 0.1% of the population),
this number grew to 13% in 1953 and to 32% in 1987.3
Before any religious sectarian strife, first there would have been massive reprisals against the reviled Communists who implemented draconian discriminatory policies to wipe out religion in Yugoslavia. LCY anti-religious discriminatory policies were so effective that within fifty years those who were without a religion increased by an astronomical 3,100%! The fact that no reprisals took place against LCY members proves that the breakup of Yugoslavia was manufactured and controlled by the Communists.

I used to know some Jewish WW2 vets their opinion of FDR was shocking considered he refused a boatload of Jews refugee status in the USA and, in fact, turned their boat away, but even more shocking than this, is that a MONTH BEFORE Pearl Harbor, Nazi submarines acting as part of a wolf pack sunk and damaged two US destroyers, killing over 100 US sailors and FDR did NOTHING. Woody Guthrie wrote a song about it: The Sinking of Reuben James, the name of the destroyer (named after a US sailor who fought in the Barbary Wars).
She died in Fwance, even though she was American. She might have even died impoverished.
Macron just pandering to his people because he’s got an election coming up against a real patriot!!–hes nothing more than globalist trash!!
If anyone is privileged it’s Macron, Ms. Trudy, Biden, Hillary, Bill etc.
In fact all the white liberals proclaiming it are white privileged.
Staggering hypocrisy!
The real problem is bigoted hating feral animal libturds!!!!!
Interesting and thought provoking article. The French are fighting for their very soul. The outcome will affect us all.
Quite a strange turn of events.
“France” is, de facto, a Terrorist Entity. We are a Jihadi Factory. “France” can only lead the West to its destruction, but we ain’t even capable of that, that’s Biden’s job.
We are a defeated ex-nation, a Racially Disputed Territory. Infested from top to bottom with our deadliest enemies and their useful idiots. Coming to the USA, unless you guys decide not to let it.
It’s hilarious that the Fwench indict the US for anything while they’re being overrun by f’ing muslums and, arguably, enforcing the cornerstones of Shariah law, islamic blasphemy and heresy laws (i.e. because people have been arrested and charged with crimes for publicly criticising muslums and their fascist, Jew hating death cult [e.g. Brigitte Bardot.).
Oh they think they are Soooo Intelligent when they lack even a little bit of Common Sense. Woke… oh yes, we have woken up, they say. Yeah Right! The further people drift away from God the less wisdom they have. Oh they may have a lot of knowledge even about lies they think are true but they have no Wisdom….. God created all skin colors and to HIM they are all GOOD.
I grew up in the Southern State of Tennessee in America where you had Black people with all kinds of ideology. One was very different then the other and it all depended on their mindset in how they saw themselves. I worked with the most wonderful Doctor at a Catholic Hospital, he was black. But you would never know it. You see folks it has nothing to do with the color of someone’s skin it has everything to do with their Mindset and how they were raised. How they see themselves and how they relate to others. Some people of color let that be their excuse for not making anything of themselves….. Other people of color see it as a springboard to be everything they dreamed of being ….. It is all determined by how they are raised and the mindset they develop as to whether they succeed or fail, it has nothing to do with the color of their skin. Blaming white people for their failure is absurd and just plain wrong.
We see today that the “enlightened” ones, as they call themselves on the Progressive left do just this,
as it has been done before. Pre-Nazi Germany was not some third world country. It was the
“cutting edge”, not only of technology and sciences, but also of philosophy, human rights, and
animal rights. Mistreating your dog was outlawed. Yet the most advanced scientist and
“professors” of ethics came to the horrible conclusion that “Jews”, “Gypsies”, and lumped in this pile,
“homosexuals” did not deserve to live. How ironic is it that “homosexuals” created the Nazi party, then
fell victim to it? Today has joined the voices of those calling for the “death of Jews.” At the famous
meeting that determined the “Final Solution” of extermination of the Jewish people, the majority of those present held
postgraduate degrees and were all “liberal” intellectual thinkers. This White Privilege is nothing more then Nazi Germany’s
Mindset rising up once again. I will not be surprised if soon the Jews will be blamed for everything including the Coronavirus.
If you read about the Eichmann trials, what horrified me the most were the “thoughtful” and calculated
arguments. These monsters sincerely believed they were doing a service for the betterment of
humanity by their extermination of innocent men, women, and children. All this sprang from a “gay
bar” in Munich by the “Nationalist Socialist Workers Party of Germany.” Put that in your “Positive gay”
history books.
In America, a most blessed land, everyone is “free” to read whatever they like, such as the “preamble”
to the American Declaration of Independence; “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men
are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among
these are “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” But if you are Jewish or Evangelical Christian, then
it was obviously excluding you, according to the leftist. Have you ever noticed that with them, every abhorrent
behavior is a right, but your “right” to worship G-d and live a moral life without their interference is NOT
a right but an attack on “society”? The PC movement is nothing new. It is “leftist” minded policing that came
from Psychological warfare tactics initiated by the Nazi Party. Neuro-lingual training or “brainwashing”. It is happening
all over again folks.
Ecclesiastes 1:9…. What is happened in the past will happen again for there is no new thing under the sun.
Interesting article. I will say that DeGaulle betrayed France nd the western world with his retreat from Algiers (the French had the terrorists beaten on the ground). That led the way for the islamization of Europe. Degaulle also was the founder of post Nazi antisemitism with his abandonment of Isrel before the six day war and his vicious criticism of Jews after ward. De Gaulle was financially clever though. He was smart enough to turn American paper federal reserve notes into gold, necessitating Pres. Nixon declaring American bankruptcy by devaluing the dollar.
One of the French Foreign Legion detachments went rogue over DeGaulle’s surrender of Algeria. It’s said they hired a hitman to take out DeGaulle after their attempt failed.

ALL THIS SO-CALLED ‘WOKE’ DOGMA is actually pre-planned GOALS by the Democrat Party, actually taken from the Communists:

I know and like France very much, I visit often and read their media. The problem is that they are still not identifying the danger. Most mainstream articles mentions “religous group” or “religous extremists” instead of islamic terrorists and islamic fanatics. Too coward to even say it out loud is the heart of the problem.. this is why I’m not sure this last move will make a difference unfortunately.
Yeah, France is decidedly NOT leading the West. They and the rest of Europe are the founding fathers of white flag wokeism, & majority are happily celebrating Big Greenie New Deal rituals & return to focusing on welcoming ‘refugee’ operations in honor of Biden’s win & return to endless wars bc thinking for themselves makes their little heads hurt, but thanks for playing!
Well that´s one view of the French .. another view (English) would be that they are a lazy bunch of cheese eating surrender monkeys. Take WW2 for example:- The French air forces were no match for the Germans in aerial combat. The French army was unable to cope with the German Blitzkrieg tactics and was defeated after only six weeks of fighting.
Macron is totally right & the American Biden Administration wrong! SOROS & THE LEFT & BIG TECK are all behind this Marxist nonsense. It will “cripple” the US & IRAN & CHINA will be delighted!
Macron is like an American Mitch McConnell. When the DEW blasted Beirut, he hightailed it off there and was making speeches in Beirut before the government (for that that is worth) said anything. He’s referred to himself as Jupiter. The Temple of Baal is in Beirut. He doesn’t give a fig about the French people, or the Lebanese people for that matter. That blast was a warning to him from the deep state.
My European white privilege is so noticeable that every person around the World, who is obviously not white, wishes to come to my country, get free food, housing and health care, and if they dont then thats only because I have white privilege.
Let me tell these snowflakes something… I, as a British 31 year old guy, arrived in NYC, mid Jan,decades ago, snow on the ground, didnt know a soul, had $27 in my pocket, and had nobody to call for more…. I stayed in NYC for two years and all that time I was looking for some white privilege…didnt find any… USA is THE greatest country in the entire World, trust me on that, as I have lived all over the World.
I believe France will become an Islamic State.
The fact that “Far-Right” Marie Le Pen is being prosecuted for her “racist hate speech” when she compares Muslims to Nazis indicates that the French are clueless when it comes to the totalitarian threat of Islamic supremacy and hijrah. The French don’t see the political similarities between Hitlerian Aryan supremacy and Islamic supremacy simply because they think Islam is only a “religion” and not a threatening political ideology. They also mistakenly view Muslims as a racial group. I don’t think the French have any moral superiority over America since the Leftists in America are no different than the French Leftists. They are apologists for anything anti-West. Macron, like the Pope, thinks he can assimilate Islam into Western values. Don’t think it’s possible since Islam is ideologically anti-West, anti-infidel, anti-Jew, anti-Christian.
The hotbed of creeds crisscrossing in France are the following:
National Socialism overwhelmed and submerged France in 1939.
Islam overwhelmed France in the 1970s when families were permitted to bring families from North Africa to reunite with immigrants in France.
Hitler had allied with Islam against Jews and now the Left has done the same, but the Right has taken back the southern cities that had fallen to Islam i.e. Perpignan and Béziers.
Now also in northern France, the city of Trappes is tottering on the verge of kicking out it’s Muslim major and in Paris, the Minister of Higher Education is ordering an investigation on the influence of Islamo-Leftism in all French universities.
Islam’s on the verge of being kicked out of all of Europe and the drain of Muslims will be felt even in the most remote corners of Europe. It’ll probably take about a thousand years to come back this time around.
France, along with GB declared war on Nazi Germany, the first nations to do so outside of Poland. The French and British were only overwhelmed because they put far too much trust in their impregnable Maginot Line and were ill prepared for the Nazis innovative Blitzkrieg offense.
France has been fighting with GB, Germany, Italy, Spain etc….for the last 2000 years incessantly. They do a new war every hundred years or less and wars last as long as up to 100 years. They get tired. But they always start up the drum beat again…Septimania was the last war with Islam which ended with the Battle of Tours on 10 October 732. That ended exactly 40 years of a Muslim government on French soil.
Mongol Khan Hulagu ended the Islamic Caliphs Golden Age in Baghdad when he rolled him in a carpet and trampled him by his horses until death ensued. The Muslims are still licking their wounds from that. that was in 1258.
The Christians were spared in Baghdad that day because Hulagus wife and mother were Christians. The Baghdad Christians said they’d been delivered 600 years of suffering from the Muslims. They said they considered Hulagu to be their Messiah.
….
…In the West, there was a legend of the “Prester John” who was a Christian king in Asia who protected the Christians. People in that age, thought he was the Messiah. Hulagu fit his description perfectly (despite that Hulagu was a Buddhist…but who protected Christians….). Hulagu’s mother later went on to become an influent Mongol counselor to her extended family of Mongol Kings in Russia and claimed to the Christians among them, that her son Hulagu was indeed the “Prester John”.
Today among Tibetan Buddhists, the future Savior is thought to be the King of Shambhala as taught in the Kalachakra Tantra teaching and prophecy of the end times.
The Kalachakra was composed just after Hulagus death and certainly uses Hulagu as it’s model for that Savior.
The King of Shambhala is said to reincarnate constantly (since the beginning of time) and will emerge from hiding to rule the world in the end times.
He typically defeats Islam and destroys all the heretical faiths. Hulagu, (as one must remember) protected Christianity. So he represents the alliance of Buddha and Jesus, and so as to defeat Islam. See all this in Wikipedia and in the various learned links that I’ve got available. It’s difficult to understand when one’s new to it. But once one knows it like I do, it’s a whiz and is as simple as just going to the local grocery store.
All this crap started in France, it was exported to America. Satanists like Alistair Crowley were followers of Eliphas Levi whose famous depiction of the Baphomet is springing up all over. His original name was Alphonse Louis Constant (b. 1810) and he changed it to look more Jewish (have you ever!).
Ha! French got burned by fascists at NYTrash too! Crap the woke produce starts hitting the fan.
The irony is that the original ideas driving the nonsense in the US came from France…Derrida, Foucault, Lyotard. etc.
Who would have believe that it would be France leading the charge! So different from 1968 and the student revolt.
I surely hope that Mr Macron carries on that way. Americans were always considered the “incorrigible young” as they ran away to the New World, away from the parental supervision of more mature Europeans. But Americans learned and their gift to the world is incalculable. However now some have allowed a cancer to come in with intent to destroy the amazing, wonderful culture started by our founders. And despicable people like pelosi and others, WHO BECAME MILLIONAIRES BECAUSE OF T HIS COUNTRY’S OPPORTUNITIES, are set to allow infamous leftists to destroy it.
if I was in france…I wud start jooos for LaPen… yeah, I know about her grand pappy… but she ain’t him!
The entire world would look like Africa . . . .
Whites are only 10% of the world’s population, yet are the most industrious, ingenious, and innovative race the world has known. Whites have formed nations, built civilizations, assumed and administrated power, created the Renaissance, the Age of Discovery, the Industrial Revolution, automation, technology, discovered electricity, nuclear energy, X-rays and invented automobiles, airplanes, jet engines, spacecraft, submarines, helicopters, radio, television, internet, computers, telephones, anesthesia and medicine, communication satellites, microwave ovens, concrete, light bulbs, telescopes and microscopes, cameras. Whites were the first to circumnavigate the planet by ship, and orbit it by spaceship, to walk on the moon, to explore the solar system, create architecture, unlock the secrets of DNA, and relativity, climb the highest peak, reach both poles, exceed the sound barrier, descend to the deepest point of the oceans…… sub-Saharan Africans still cannot even feed themselves.
19 of the 20 poorest countries are sub-Saharan African (Haiti). There has never been a successful Black country. No modern creations or civilization exists in sub-Saharan Africa that was not brought there by Whites.
There are no White Third-World nations, but all Black ones are.
Put Whites on an island and you get England; put Asians on an island and you get Japan; put Blacks on an island and you get Haiti.
You’re wrong. Towering INDIVIDUAL intellects produced Western Civilization. The rest of humanity, including white humanity, stand on their shoulders.
Aristotle, not white people, created the Renaissance thanks to his reintroduction to the West by Thomas Aquinas. If not for Aristotle the Christian Dark Ages would have gone on indefinitely.
Why single out blacks? You might as well argue that white women could never have produced Western Civilization, but why stop there? By your collectivist premise it can be argued that 99.99% of white men could never have created Western Civilization, because you know what? They didn’t.
Have you ever read “Human Accomplishment” by Charles Murray? Quite a revealing read. Murray restricts his historical study to paradigm-shift discoveries, formulations, and inventions, whether philosophical, theoretical, scientific, technological, or entrepreneurial. The nordic, Scandinavian, countries, have produced not one paradigm-shift discovery or invention, not one. Almost all of the towering geniuses, the paradigm-shifters, came from Ancient Greece (interesting how Greece no longer produces paradigm-shifters even though they are still white), Italy, France, Germany, England, Scotland, and America. The only paradigm-shifter outside of those countries is Copernicus who was born in what is now Poland.
“A genius is a genius, regardless of the number of morons who belong to the same race—and a moron is a moron, regardless of the number of geniuses who share his racial origin….
Like every other form of collectivism, racism is a quest for the unearned. It is a quest for automatic knowledge—for an automatic evaluation of men’s characters that bypasses the responsibility of exercising rational or moral judgment—and, above all, a quest for an automatic self-esteem (or pseudo-self-esteem).” – Ayn Rand
Hmmm, didn’t Aristotle propose a cosmos that had the sun revolving around the earth?
And didn’t Isaac Newton believe in Alchemy and secretly practice it, trying to turn led into gold with magical incantations, hocus pocus, abra cadabra?
We don’t consider Isaac Newton a towering genius for his Alchemy or his errors but for his calculus and theory of gravity among other scientific achievements.
Aristotle, whatever his many faults and errors, validated reason by giving us his system of logic.
Yes but the Catholic Church’s love of Aristotle is why they persecuted Galileo and his heliocentric model of the solar system. I’m sure Aristotle wouldn’t have approved.
Aristotle wasn’t at all a giant in the world of mathematics or physics. Newton’s theories exist not only in modern physics textbooks but modern mathematics textbooks the world over.
Alchemy became the modern science of chemistry, it had to start somewhere.
“Towering INDIVIDUAL intellects produced Western Civilization. ” . . . Towering Caucasian Individuals!
The Renaissance was CREATED when Martin Luther nailed his thesis on the Roman Church Door in the 16th Century . . . Christian Protestants led the fight for freedom & democracy . . . Modern Democracy was born out of Christian & Jewish Philosophies and concepts of Individual FREEDOM.
The FACT that no other group on the planet was able to produce these results is neither racist or incorrect . . . merely Historical fact.
Christianity was always color blind . . .
Many of those towering CAUCASIAN individuals would have been put to death by Hitler for not being nordic and Aryan, Aristotle, Plato, many of the ancient Greeks and Romans, Einstein, Spinoza, any CAUCASIAN Jew. Time to put the myth of the importance of race in the trash bin of history.
Being white has nothing to do with an individual’s towering achievement. Even if it were proven that on average white people are born with a higher average IQ than black people it would tell you nothing about a specific individual. Statistically male DNA produces more morons and more geniuses than female DNA, and therefore statistically the vast majority of the paradigm-shifters of history were men, and probably will continue to be so, but how many high IQ white men never produced an original idea in their lives? The vast majority of them! The rational faculty, the mind, is an attribute of the individual, and it must be developed by choice and circumstances. Even if an individual is born with an IQ of 180 it predicts nothing about his future accomplishments or lack thereof.
Aristotle, the Greek Pagan, not Jesus Christ, nor Moses, nor Abraham, is the father of reason, logic, and science. The introduction of Aristotle by Thomas Aquinas is the reason the Renaissance began, “renaissance” does not mean the rebirth of Christian faith, but the rebirth of Aristotelian reason, logic,and science. Once Aristotle was introduced into the Christian Dark Ages, the stranglehold the Christian religion, Christian faith and mysticism, had on the European mind, began to erode. Give credit where credit is due. The rational, scientific, world is not the product of Jesus Christ, Abraham, nor Moses, but the product of Aristotle.
No, it is not pure Christianity that is responsible for our modern, scientific, rational way of looking at reality. But Christianity tempered, modified, restrained, and leashed by Aristotelian influence. By the Aristotelian Renaissance and the Age of Enlightenment. Pure Christianity untempered by reason, Puritanism, was the cause of the Christian Dark Ages. Protestantism is the product of the Aristotelian Renaissance, the Aristotelian revolution, not the cause of it. Without the Aristotelian Renaissance, Protestantism would have been impossible.
“The mind is an attribute of the individual. There is no such thing as a collective brain. There is no such thing as a collective thought. An agreement reached by a group of men is only a compromise or an average drawn upon many individual thoughts. It is a secondary consequence. The primary act—the process of reason—must be performed by each man alone. We can divide a meal among many men. We cannot digest it in a collective stomach. No man can use his lungs to breathe for another man. No man can use his brain to think for another. All the functions of body and spirit are private. They cannot be shared or transferred.
We inherit the products of the thought of other men. We inherit the wheel. We make a cart. The cart becomes an automobile. The automobile becomes an airplane. But all through the process what we receive from others is only the end product of their thinking. The moving force is the creative faculty which takes this product as material, uses it and originates the next step. This creative faculty cannot be given or received, shared or borrowed. It belongs to single, individual men. That which it creates is the property of the creator. Men learn from one another. But all learning is only the exchange of material. No man can give another the capacity to think. Yet that capacity is our only means of survival.” – Ayn Rand
“Religion versus America” – Objectivist philosopher Leonard Peikoff
https://courses.aynrand.org/works/religion-versus-america/
I give you historical FACT . . . you give me nonsense & dribble.
It was because of the Free Societies created by Christian Men that Science, Logic & Inquiry was able to flourish. Certainly did not flourish under the Popes who terrorized Europe during the dark ages . . . read Foxe’s Book of Martyrs for a little insite.
Back in the same period in the Middle East to Spain . . . Izzzzlam was terrorizing the rest of the continent. Closed the Trade routes of Marco Polo and helped to further isolate.
Judao/Christian Philosophies are the Roots of ALL Freedom loving Democracies . . .
The Atheists gave us the Soviet Union, the CCP and a litany of totalarian regimes over the ages.
Libertarians are also Void of any worthwhile contributions . . . when it comes to the roots of Democracy.
Almost ALL the great Universities were founded by Christian disciplines . . . unfortunately today Leftist thought, Atheism & Marxism have pretty much neutered debate in these Woke Institutions. Govt Schools are turning out inept morons who think Antifa & BLM are the way forward.
Today . . . Izzlam is being used as a weapon to destroy Western Europe, in 50 years things will be much different. You do remember even Turkey, like Egypt were once Christian countries.
“Some of its security measures and intellectual attitudes may be too authoritarian for the advanced English-speaking countries,…”
I would like to have seen a listing of these “too authoritarian” security measures the French so casually put in to place as well as the cause for it and the effect it had on the country or locale it was implemented in.
Maybe America could use some of them.
It’s rather like the article is incomplete without that list and explanation.
You can’t chose your color, parents, siblings, where your born, etc. However, the one choice we all have is who we chose to be, our character. You can always identify a racist because they talk color. Character counts color sucks!
Macron is trying to appear tough. He isn’t. He’s already accusing Le Pen of being soft on islam. This has nothing to do with islam and everything to do with fighting Le Pan. Macron is a leftist, duplicitous putz of the worst sort.
