An Uncle Tim


Perhaps the best-written response to Tuesday's election -- frank, clear, logical, and pithy -- is by professional anti-racist Tim Wise.

First, though, who is Tim? TimWise.org says:
Tim Wise is among the most respected anti-racist writers & educators in the U.S., having spoken in 48 states and on over 400 college campuses. He has trained teachers as well as corporate, government, media and law enforcement officials on methods for dismantling institutional racism, and has served as an consultant for plaintiff’s attorneys in federal discrimination cases in New York and Washington State. Wise has contributed essays to fifteen books, and has appeared on hundreds of radio and television shows worldwide to discuss race and racism.

His Wikipedia page says he's now up to 600 college campuses. He has an appearance scheduled at the University of the South in Tennessee next Tuesday and at Cal State LA on Wednesday. (That's not a particularly easy trip. The man works hard to make a living.) I was under the impression that he had a gig at Georgia Tech as well, but that now seems to be off his schedule. 

Now, you might think that this kind of career would be reserved for blacks, but that just shows how you aren't aware of White Privilege. Tim is a white man of Scottish and Jewish heritage.

Of all the Uncle Tims, he's the Uncle Timmiest.

It's important to understand that Tim is neither controversial nor a controversialist. The colleges that pay him his lecture fee view him as a public-spirited citizen, no more controversial than was, say, a doctor in the 1920s who traveled the country lecturing on the dangers of venereal disease. Tim is not "controversial" -- a term that has shifted in the 40 or so years I've been reading newspapers from one of praise (often, back then, with Ron Burgundyish hubba-hubba connotations: "Masters & Johnson Reveal their Controversial Report on the Female Orgasm!") to one of sniffy warning. Today, Charles Murray is "controversial." Tim Wise is, oh, "outspoken."

And Tim is not a controversialist. He is no more expected to engage in debate with those he denounces than that VD doctor was expected to debate the spirochaetes he warned against.

Keep in mind, that Tim is not a major newsmaker in American public life. The last time he was cited in the New York Times, for example, appears to have been 2006 and before that in 1992. Is that because he's kind of a junior varsity player or because what he has to say is not terribly controversial?

And that raises a key question about his recent essay, An Open Letter to the White Right, On the Occasion of Your Recent, Successful Temper Tantrum. Something this lucid seem hardly like an idiosyncratic effusion. Instead, it's the product of a clear worldview. I don't think most of Tim's political allies have thought this through as fully as he has, but I think the emotions and basic logic are, indeed, widespread. We've heard endlessly about Republican anger and hatred, but Freud's concept of "projection" remains a highly useful one to keep in mind when reading the newspaper. 

Tim writes:
For all y’all rich folks, enjoy that champagne, or whatever fancy ass Scotch you drink.

And for y’all a bit lower on the economic scale, enjoy your Pabst Blue Ribbon, ...

Whatever the case, and whatever your economic station, know this . . .

You need to drink up.

And quickly.

And heavily.

Because your time is limited.

Real damned limited.

So party while you can, but mind the increasingly loud clock ticking away in the corners of your consciousness.

The clock that reminds you how little time you and yours have left.

Not much more now.

Tick, tock.

Tick, tock.

Tick.

Tock. ...
Put it on your Facebook wall and leave it there so you’ll remember that I told you so.

It is coming, and soon.

This isn’t hubris. It isn’t ideology. It is not wishful thinking.

It is math.

Not even advanced math. Just simple, basic, like 3rd grade math.

The kind of math that proves how your kind—mostly older white folks beholden to an absurd, inaccurate, nostalgic fantasy of what America used to be like—are dying. ...


And in the pantheon of American history, old white people have pretty much always been the bad guys, the keepers of the hegemonic and reactionary flame, the folks unwilling to share the category of American with others on equal terms.

Fine, keep it up. It doesn’t matter.

Because you’re on the endangered list.

And unlike, say, the bald eagle or some exotic species of muskrat, you are not worth saving. ...

By then, half the country will be black or brown. And there is nothing you can do about it.

Nothing, Senõr Tancredo.

Nothing, Senõra Angle, or Senõra Brewer, or Senõr Beck.

Loy tiene muy mal, hijo de Puta. ...


We just have to be patient.

And wait for your hearts to stop beating.

And stop they will.

And for some of you, real damned soon, truth be told.

Do you hear it?

The sound of your empire dying? Your nation, as you knew it, ending, permanently?

Because I do, and the sound of its demise is beautiful.

So know this.

If you thought this election was payback for 2008, remember . . .

Payback, thy name is . . .

Temporary.

It's important to note that Tim isn't calling here for, say, mass murder, just as when Khrushchev said "We'll bury you," he didn't mean "Under rubble and fallout," but more like, "We'll dance at your funeral."

But, the emotions are clear. And they're common.

    but he is also Jewish so he validates every WN persons perception about his half-race.

  6. My life has been blessed in that I am not dependent upon being respectful to the Wise as a condition of my employment.

    I haven't heard rhetoric like that since 1971, the last year I knew a Klan admirer.

    Charles Manson was a prophet for the Wise, and his prophecy of Helter Skelter is mere years from fulfillment. May I die before that day.

  7. The irony is that Uncle Tims are the ones who will make any kind of "socialism" or "equitable wealth redistribution" impossible in America. It seems quite clear that left wing economic policies and flat income distributions are only possible in racially homogeneous countries. Tim's idiotic favoritism towards NAMs will only strengthen the Rupert Murdochs of the world. By 2050 the US will be indistinguishable from paradises of tolerance, equality and social justice like Brazil or Mexico. I hope the progressives enjoy that.

    Given that Timbo is himself white [or at least half-white], shouldn't that read "our funeral"?

    Which is what I keep trying to tell people: In addition to being democidal, these nihilists are also suicidal.

  10. Around the end of the 19th century, Jewish thinkers looked for protection against the frequent bouts of persecution they were subjected to. One answer was Zionism, leading ultimately to the creation of a Jewish homeland.

    There was another current of thought that looked at neutralizing anti-semitism 'in situ'which, thru the Frankfurt school in Wiemar Germany, the civil right movements in the 60's, led to the present PC ideology. Having identified 'white men' as their tormentors, Jewish intellectuals have used their hold over mass media to array against them a whole slew of victims, including their own women, to destabilize, and eventually, thru demography and immigration, snuff them out.

    On his blog, several people seem to think Wise is deluded to imagine he'll be part of the new 'brown-black' elite because he's white. They're wrong. First of all, I don't think he views himself as 'white' in the sense most of us do. Second, yes, he will be part of the ruling elite because he already is.

  11. Re Tim Wise's reference to temper tantrum.
    Graydon Carter tries the same tack in the online Vanity Fair.
    "A distinguished colleague of mine likens the wiggy mood of the nation to that of a hormonal teenager. What do you call an electorate that seems prone to acting out irrationally, is full of inchoate rage, and is constantly throwing fits and tantrums? You call it teenaged. Is voting for a deranged Tea Party candidate such as Christine O’Donnell, who has no demonstrable talent for lawmaking, or much else, so different from shouting “Whatever!” and slamming the bedroom door? Is moaning that Obama doesn’t emote enough or get sufficiently angry so different from screaming, “You don’t understand!!!”

  14. Of course, if Uncle Tim's vision is ever realized, there won't be much of a market for self-hating white PC evangelists. For that matter, there won't be much of a market for anything beyond a subsistence lifestyle. Tim probably realizes this, which underscores the sick nihilism of the Left.

  15. steve already said this, but tim wise is jewish. of course he's jewish. a certain segment of jewish people in the US feel an intense, burning hatred for europeans. after you have accepted this fact as reality, and you have observed these particular jewish people in their written words and political and legal actions, you have to start to wonder, after a decade or two, what is wrong with them. clearly they have some kind of mental health issue. it goes far beyond the lifestyle contradictions demonstrated by liberal euro americans, with their public lip service to diversity but private adherence to group homogeniety. for liberal euro americans it's a status game. for many of the jewish crusaders though, they really mean it. they want total destruction of every european nation. they want there to be zero countries on earth where genetically european peoples are a majority. they want europeans eradicated.

    compare time wise, and his decades long, continual denial that there was a single valuable or useful thing contributed to the world by a european united states, versus james edwards and his lucid, concise defenses of europeans in the US. wise regularly tirades that there was not even one reedemable quality about the US in the past, while edwards effortlessly cuts those kind of arguments to shreds.

    there could not be a more high contrast example of who is hostile, hateful, and utterly wrong (wise), versus who is calm, not hateful, and completely in the right (edwards). does time wise genuinely believe that when the random jumble of third world people from around the world become the majority in the US, they will lead the US into some kind of golden age? all evidence points towards a simple brazilian downgrade of a previously dynamic and actually vibrant nation, into a mediocre mess fraught with ethnic divisions, with dramatically less actual vibrancy and cultural export.

    The other day, I was glancing through the Yahoo News photoessay on the Hartley 2 comet fly-by [24 pictures in all], and I was thinking to myself, "Wow, those are some seriously old geezers at NASA."

    Many of them look like they date from the Apollo era, and I wouldn't be surprised if one or two of them had been interns during Gemini.

    Point being that civilization [which is necessarily white] is on a collision course with the barbarians [who, sadly, are not only black and brown, but are also Scots-Jewish], and the defining question of our generation is whether we can preserve civilization at all, or whether we are going to allow ourselves to be over-run by the barbarians.

    You're right, Steve. Even that model moderate, Bill Clinton, said that he looked forward to the day that whites would no longer be the majority in this country. After independence from England and the War Between the States, he declared that the reduction of whites to a minority will be “the third great revolution of America, if we can prove that we literally can live without having a dominant European culture."

    Clinton seemed iffy about whether whites "literally can live" as a minority, but that was evidently okay with him.

    "Tim is a white man of Scottish and Jewish heritage."

    Just like Wiskey.

    Anyways, what Tim is saying is pretty much true. If you look at the demographic numbers, they are pretty stark.

    Once the baby boomers start dying en masse, this country is going to quickly become majority non-white.

    People under 30 today live in a different America than those who are older.

    Unlike the white older people, I don't really remember an America that was white.

    My America has always been mixed.

    In the future, white children won't remember an America that was majority white, since for them, non-whites have always been the majority.

    This is why I am certain that no great white revival will come. The change happened too fast. Almost like from one day to another. There won't be ourage amoung people who don't remember a white America.

    White America can be erased from the national consiousness.

    Wise makes the point that half the country will be black or brown at some point in the future. OK, we've heard that before.

    But other than using language that might be considered inflammatory by some, what has Wise said here that's really all that different from, let's say, John McCain telling us that illegal Mexican immigrants "are God's children and we must take care of them"? Both Wise and McCain are in favor of flooding the country with semi-literate Mexican peasants, and both would do it intentionally. The end result is the same.

    And another question: why don't you ever hear people like Wise talk in terms of exile or just plain old kicking those horrible white people out? Shoot, if the likes of Wise said "tell you guys what, we'll give you some states in flyover country, don't bother us, we won't bother you" I'd jump at the opportunity. And I'll bet a lot of others would too. But the dirty little secret is that they know you can't have a functioning 1st world society without those eeevil white people, especially the men.

  31. I wonder if you will make his "enemy attacks" list. Probably not. Absurdly, he lists two attacks there, one by Lou Dobbs and one by Rush. Is that all of the attacking that has happened? Probably not, but I guess those are high profile lightning rods that his following are programmed to hate. Their attacks are trophies.

    His PSAT comprehension question writer analogy is so arrogant. I have spanked nearly every reading comprehension question put before me PSAT, SAT, and LSAT included and I comprehend a very anti-white hostility. There is nothing guarded or subject to misinterpretation about goading anti-immigration platforms with Spanish titles. I was not surprised to see him finish with an effeminate "sigh".

  35. Steve Sailer said..."But, the emotions[expressed in Tim Wise's screed*] are clear. And they're common."

    That's what the majority of those not on the left** don't get. I know this piece has got a lot of attention among conservatives but I suspect most who've read it see it as an aberration, instead of what it really is, a commonplace POV of the left. And of course, comparatively few people are even aware of its existence.

    Non-leftists continue to view the left as a nuisance rather than a threat because they simply can't believe anyone would, without extreme provocation, feel that type and degree of hatred toward them.

    The awareness of this anger toward most of the rest of us is what made me decide long ago not to do anything ever that helps anyone on the left, unless it's to my immediate benefit to do so. Because many on the left really do feel this abiding hatred toward us and really wish us harm, even if they won't (yet) take any steps to harm us. And they're the ones making and enforcing policy in this country that they are so outraged we claim as our own.

    Anyway, great entry.

  36. Steve, despite your contention that this isn't a call for mass murder, it is a necessary condition for mass murder: the demonization and dehumanizing of an opponent.

    Not every white person is in his 60s, 70s, or 80s. What about young white people, who, though at a lower rate currently, stubbornly persist in being born?

    What will their future be like, given the wide acceptance of this bolshevik and his genocidalist views?

    The only way to fight the Uncle Tims of this world is to hold them up in the light, and morally condemn them. I find your piece rather short on the necessary moral condemnation, which is disappointment.

  38. What is the worst crime that a person can commit or even just contemplate? The abduction, rape, torture and killing of children seems pretty bad and much too common and too real. But I would say that a worse crime yet is the largely theoretical crime that appears in science fiction stories - species traitor.

    This kind of villain sides with the invading aliens against the cause of humans. Such actions lead toward the death - usually the horrible death - of everybody.

    Species tractors are mass murderers like genocidists but worse yet because of the greater scale.

    Therefore I find it disturbing that two recent critically acclaimed sci-fi movies glorify humans who are species traitors. In Avatar Sam Worthington the paraplegic hero supports and fights for the blue aliens even though the plot makes clear that that is against the survival interests of Earth. Similarly in District 9, the white male hero like Worthington in Avatar gets under the skin of the aliens and likes it. He aids them to escape so as to return and conquer Earth.

    This must mean something. In the fifties invading aliens was a horrible notion, especially if they were as creepy, and icky as the bugs in District 9. In those days the attitude towards our species enemies was like those in the recent Starship Troopers. Of course Starship Troopers is based on a fifties novel.

    In the old days when the aliens landed there was always some soft headed loon who approached the landed ship/meteorite with a white flag and a message of peace. This character would be immediately incinerated as an object lesson to the others.

    Somehow all that changed. Now it is seen as sophisticated to be like Tim Wise - an advocate of the extermination of yourself and all like you. If the aliens do land and announce a desire to rid the Earth of all humans, expect Uncle Tim to upgrade from race traitor to species traitor.

  39. He's found a lucrative niche. He has an advantage in that he offers a self contained dialectic through which people can view things, a prepackaged religion that saves people the trouble of trying to figure things out for themselves. College age youth are big consumers of this sort of thing as they are naive and prone to being enticed by various pied pipers who promise them a cause they can throw themselves into. The military likes the same age bracket as they are more easily convinced they're involved in the cause of spreading freedom and happiness rather than just grabbing resources on behalf of big corporations. Hope sells because people want meaning in their lives.They want causes. Of course, the democratic facade falls the moment people like him gain the upper hand and they're able to suppress contrary views, just as communists in the past were prone to do. Making money while selling the coming utopia is what he's doing.

  40. I love his response to criticism of his anti-white screed: "you illiterates, I was criticizing white right-wingers, not whites in general!"

    Yeah, sure. He wrote the thing in response to Tuesday's Republican landslide. He's talking to the whites who didn't vote the way he wanted them to...i.e., the white majority.

    If anyone ever wrote something similar to the 80-90 percent of blacks, or 70-80 percent of Jews who vote Democrat, he'd be shrieking "racism" or "anti-Semitism," of course. And "some of my best friends are white" would be no defense. Everything Wise writes screams "who-whom?" from beginning to end.

    "And in the pantheon of American history, old white people have pretty much always been the bad guys, the keepers of the hegemonic and reactionary flame, the folks unwilling to share the category of American with others on equal terms."

    This is the gratitude the Greatest Generation gets from liberal Tim Wise. 400,000 American casualties in WWII, mostly white gentiles, and Tim Wise taunts them and hopes for their faster demise.

    It seems to escape Tim Wise's mind that the greatest generation(and earlier generations) also spearheaded the movement toward greater equality. Truman who integrated the army was pre-GG, and so was Eisenhower who signed landmark bills ending segregation. And the justices who upheld new laws were also pre-GG. Kennedy was GG. Johnson was pre-GG. Most marchers and organizers for civil rights were GG. Boomers take all the credit for changes in the 60s, but this is a fraud. Oldest boomers were born in 1946, which means they were 10 yrs old 1956 when great changes were already afoot. In 1966, the oldest boomers were 20, and already the major changes had taken place. Boomers rode the wave of change than brought upon the change. Even rock and roll were invented by pre-boomers. And they say 60s boomer generation was the film generation, but nearly all the films that mattered in the 60s were made by pre-boomer generations, in US and abroad.
    Even the radical Arthur Penn and maverick Peckinpah were GG or closer to GG than to boomers in age.

  50. Jewish scholars often speak of cultural mentalities. They say due to centuries of Tsarism, Russians have an authoritarian and slavish mentality even today. They say Japanese still have a feudal village mentality despite all the modernity. They say the Chinese still have a middle-kingdom mentality because, for 1000s of yrs, China saw itself as the center of the world. And most of us can agree that even secular white liberals have something of Christian guilt morality.

    Well, Jews practiced their religion and culture for 1000s of yrs, so there must be a kind of Jewish mentality even among secular Jews. (Surely, Jews aren't different than others in this regard). One seems to be monomania. Jews embraced One God and One Truth, and most famous Jewish secular intellectuals try to explain EVERYTHING by focusing on one great all-encompassing trut and claim to have come up with The truth. Marx and class theory of history, Freud and sexual theory of psychology, Ayn Rand and radical indivdualism. Right or left, there is a Jewish way of thinking.

    What about Jews and outsiders? Christians for centuries have been told to love thy neighbor and embrace all of humanity through peace and love. Having failed at this high ideal, white Christians are filled with guilt and try to make amends.

    But what did Judaism teach Jews for 1000s of yrs, a mindset which lingers to this day? To distrust, fear, hold in contempt, and even hate goyim. Also, even though GUILT is a major theme in the Old Testament, it has to do with the Jew before GOD but NEVER Jew before gentile humanity. At best, Old Testament says Jews should treat gentiles minorities within the Jewish community with some degree of civility. But there is no concept of guilt and gratitude towards goyim--similarly Muslims are without guilt over its historical bloodletting because the sacred Koran endorses the killing of infidels without remorse. This may be one reason why Germans feel so much guilt about the Holocaust but Jews feel no guilt about communism. Though Soviet Communism was a new system invented largely by Jewish radicals, modern Jewish intellectuals blame Soviet communism and its failures purely on Russian tsarist tradition and history. In fact, the tsarist system was downright humane and tolerant compared to the modern communist system. When Lenin, Stalin, and Trotksy were sent on exile, they were left alone to fish, read books, have visitors, and have sex with local gals. The gulag system and modern totalitariaism were products of radical Jews, not of Russian tradition.

    Of course, Jews are bound to hate the goyim with power--ones standing in the way of total Jewish control--more than goyim with less power. In the West, this translates into Jews trying to tear down white power.
    It's not enough for Jews that most whites, both liberal and conservative, are pro-Jewish and willing to accomodate to most things Jewish. Jews must have absolute control and power. And it could be that on some subconscious level, this is a something passed down from 1000s yrs of Jewish history. Tim Wise may consciously be a sincere 'anti-racist', but subconsciously, he could be energized by a kind of selfish Jewish cultural gene.

  51. It's important to note that Tim isn't calling here for, say, mass murder, just as when Khrushchev said "We'll bury you," he didn't mean "Under rubble and fallout," but more like, "We'll dance at your funeral."

  53. "divide et impera" is the longtime strategy of elite rule in pseudo-democracies like the USA. One way to divide the majority bloc, i.e., whites in america, is by molding the culture over decades. The plutocrats have done that now via the higher education system, for example. THey have used nonprofit foundations to fund academics who create propaganda that projects the white lower middle class as the enemy of all who are 'good and decent.'

    Over decades, then, in order to be successful and obtain those grants, the academics have learned anti-white behaviors. Thus is born a culture in higher academia--the culture that demonizes the largest bloc in america--the white working class.

    Thus, the plutocrats have domesticated the american culture over decades, just as farmers/pastoralists domesticated livestock. Through natural selection, where the farmers/plutocrats take the place of nature and select for traits that favor use of the livestock/cultural traits for the benefit of those who own them. What are the cultural traits that are dominant in the american academic/liberal culture? hating the white "redneck," loving immigrants, loving diversity. etc. All of which are traits that serve the best interests of rich investors.

    Thus americans, who like all homo sapiens, are ruled by culture, their operating system, have become domesticated. Divide et impera. Now the plutocrats have divided us, turned the pseudoeducated college grads into haters and demonizers of the white blue collar/rural types, the plutocrats have full reign over america.

    It's not a conspiracy; it's an ecosystem.

    So I ask you again: what is leftism? Leftism is pro-white, pro-segregation, pro-secession, pro-states rights, anti-higher education (save for math and science only), pro-home schooling, anti-military, anti-immigration, pro-union, pro-welfare state, pro-progressive taxation, etc.

    You may now return to your regularly scheduled pseudo-political discussion....

  54. I can't think of only two causes for buffoonery such as this:

    1) It is entirely in Mr. Wise's economic interests to pretend he believes all this because for the last several decades it has paid off handsomely to do so. Having had to sit through scores of back-to-school guest speakers pushing their latest books or lastest memes on why kids aren't learning as they should, he is just one of many. The speaking fees do result in a good living.

  56. I have a problem with the phrase "Uncle Tim". An "Uncle Tom" is a black person who is disloyal to his ethnic group. This guy Tim Wise is pretending to be white and selling out his ethnic group, but of course he is an ethnic Jew who considers himself apart from white Gentiles. He is criticizing his ethnic group's #1 rival for power. He isn't selling out at all.

  57. Tim Wise is among the most respected anti-racist writers & educators in the U.S., having spoken in 48 states and on over 400 college campuses. He has trained teachers as well as corporate, government, media and law enforcement officials on methods for dismantling institutional racism, and has served as an consultant for plaintiff’s attorneys in federal discrimination cases in New York and Washington State.



    In other words, he spreads his distinctly Nazi-style message on the taxpayers dime. Seems like a much more worthy target for Republican lawmakers than NPR.

  61. Here is a dose of truth for "Tim." The problem with his plan to dance on my white "grave" is that the inheritance will have been spent. Whitey's credit card will no longer be accepted at the 'ol foreign market.
    So he may have only about 10 minutes to admire his dark rainbow over the U.S.A. Then that rainbow will fracture, possibly turning brown against black..Asian against (?). It may fracture even early enough for Whitey to slap on a beret and pump his fist in the air; will that be on PBS? Oh wait there wasnt enough money for PBS. Then there wasnt enough for colleges. Then there was the point the public employee unions found out that paying for an immigrant invasion didnt leave enough for their golden years, or will that phrase be black years, yes i think they will be black indeed.
    I think "Tim's" problem is that he is making a RACIST assumption that he will be in a "minority" -dominated white world...white money, white institutions..white credit...white ... It will be an entirely different world.

  62. White advocates often get accused of whining about an apparent double standard in media and political discourse, in that whites are routinely exposed to verbal and written attacks, that pointed at any 'protected' group would certainly result in the censure, ostracizing, dismissal and end of public life for the author of the attack.
    The witch-hunt against james Watson was merely a mild attack of the sort, as Watson's contentious speech was muted - the real ferocious attacks always result in the 'professional death' of the protagonist, and thus are rare occurrence these days.
    Anyhow, the acid test to gauge the double standard is to substitute the word 'black' for 'white' in the piece, and to read the piece in its entirety to oneself.If you honestly think that such a piece expounded by a prominent white would result in 'professional death', then the double standard is exposed.

  67. If the anti-White emotions are real and clear, then doesn't spreading and validating those emotions to audiences composed of at least some individuals who do wish us immediate physical harm constitute incitement? And another thing about incitement, which I think Wise's letter rises to the level of, is that it legitimizes violence against us by not only trivializing, but cheering on our loss of political power and our loss of life. Furthermore, as incitement, it has the value-added quality (for anti-Whites like Tim Wise) of legitimizing others to incite against us.

  71. I must say the degree of pure hatred a white American such as this Tim Wise expressed for his fellow white Americans is really quite astonishing. One would think he'd have just slit his own wrists and been done with it already.

    The only comparable case that easily comes to mind is that of the Russian Bolsheviks, who slaughtered so many millions of their fellow Russians in such grisly fashion.

    I'll admit I've always been a bit skeptical of the claims of our Scots-Irish friend "Whiskey" at the burning dislike of white women toward their own race, but it now appears he just hasn't gone far enough in his analysis: white American men such as Tim Wise seem even more virulent in their hatred of their own people.

    Perhaps we may eventually see the second great "auto-genocide" in modern Western history, the first one obviously being that of the Russian Bolsheviks...

  73. I don't think most of Tim's political allies have thought this through as fully as he has, but I think the emotions and basic logic are, indeed, widespread.

    Yeah, I don't know. It takes a special sort to genuinely be that masochistic. And I think it's misguided to grace this with the concept of "logic" in the first place. Sure, for the actual Wises of the world, there may be some thought-out rationale under it all. But for the typical Kossite, being a leftist is merely about looking righteous in public, not about operating on some foundation of reasoned premises and conclusions.

    I'd love to be privy to the internal mental reactions going on with the cheering masses over at Kos. Beneath each "You go, Tim!" exclamation, I would imagine, is a vaguely discomfiting sensation. Whether you're a white conservative or a white liberal, the demographic shifts celebrated by Wise threaten a loss of power, period. And there aren't many human beings who seek that.

    Jane Liberal may clamor for a rainbow society, but she also wants to remain in a position in which such clamoring strengthens her social status.

  74. Freud's concept of "projection" remains a highly useful one to keep in mind when reading the newspaper.

    Projection of negative traits common to one's own people onto others seems to be a strongly Jewish characteristic.

    In secular life, the Frankfurt School crowd seems to have projected its mommy issues onto gentiles. According to some recent biographers, Freud was an exceedingly infantile personality whose wife had to baby him like a little child.

    In the sphere of religion, the founder of Chabad Lubavitch, Rabbi Shneur Zalman of Liadi, may have projected negative behaviors common to his fellow Jews onto onto the goyim. The seminal work of Chabad, The Tanya, thus declares:

    From this soul stem also the good traits inherent in every Jew’s character, such as compassion and benevolence.

    The souls of the nations of the world, however, emanate from the other, unclean kelipot which contain no good whatever, as is written in Etz Chayim, Portal 49, ch. 3, that all the good that the nations do, is done out of selfish motives. So the Gemara comments on the verse, “The kindness of the nations is sin” — that all the charity and kindness done by the nations of the world is only for their self-glorification...


    The funny thing is that when you look into Orthodox Judaism, what you'll find is that almost every justification for treating non-Jews morally revolves around answering the question "Is it good for the Jews? in the affirmative.

    A Jew who defends treating non-Jews morally must make his case by arguing that immoral treatment will lead to chillul Hashem (literally, desecration of God's name, but actually any kind of bad PR for Jews), or that the person who commits an immoral act against a non-Jew may also threaten fellow Jews. There is no intrinsic respect for the non-Jew in any of these arguments.

    I'm beginning to see more and more of the behaviors of secular Jews reflected in their pious antecedents. It's quite interesting and sometimes disturbing.

  77. Tim's outburst is very emotional and suggests a man who is clearly unhinged. The sentiments underlying his outburst are not intellectually driven. This suggests a psychological explanation.

    The wiki has him born in 1968 and growing up in Nashville, TN. He would have been school aged from 1974-1986, being 12 years old in 1980. Tennessee was at this time, and still is, a racially charged place. I think the guy was picked on by his white peers at the time, for whatever reason, and that he sought solace among the black kids. Or maybe he had a black girlfriend in either junior high or high school and they were tormented over it (there was and still is a big color line with regards to social life in Tennessee).

    I believe the root of Tim Wise's hatred towards "white" culture can be found in his childhood or teenage life history.

  79. Steve, I don't think he's mainstream. If he was, he would not have lost his GT gig. He's probably going to be cast out.

    Why?

    Because the internet collapses the space for the professional left, in the College campuses and Corporate HR gigs where this guy is NOT controversial, to the public arena where he is.

    Most White people don't have a life of privilege. Most Whites are like John Boehner than Barack Obama. That is they worked a ton of crummy jobs, often took a long time to work through school (because they supported themselves and did it part time), had no AA scholarships, no connections, no money.

    And they resent like hell a spoiled, foreign prince like Obama or Wise. Zuckerman's column noted only 28% of Whites would vote to re-elect Obama today. A guy like Wise depended on having his message NOT SPREAD OUT beyond the College campus and HR training room. Like Ward Churchill before him.

    Now he's toast. He knows it. EVERY Campus that has him speak, is going to get ordinary people demanding that they not pay for his appearance fees. That people cough it up themselves at the entrance if they want to hear him. Taxpayer money to call for the end of Whites in America during a deep and lasting recession is a non-starter.

    Even the elites are starting to feel the heat.

    ReplyDelete
  80. Let me add (damn Blogger length restrictions) even the elites are getting worried. FT Columnist Philip Stephens noted that in the last twenty years, the economy in the US grew by 60% (remarkable for a mature industrial economy) but living standards for the middle class rose only 10% adjusted for inflation. Cheap Chinese junk and easy credit he notes masked the lack of income (as you've noted as well, perhaps he's read your columns) but that's over now. Indeed, inflation in food and energy are zapping the White middle class.

    Stephens goes on to take them to task for "racism" against Obama, the Muslim thing, etc. But he can see the danger.

    Yeah Wise is campus/HR mainstream, but for ordinary Whites the question is, what's in it for me? For being a sudden, discriminated, punished minority in America dominated by Mexicans? Punished for bad stuff done by long-dead Whites who are mostly no relation to me?

    If you are rich and White, no problem, you live like Carlos Slim. But even as Roissy notes, the SWPL women "when their feminine humours do reassert for a temporary spell, sloppily scattershot in their compassion for indigents a world away while being brutishly curt and spiteful in their dealings with men in their social orbit" well that means nothing if the question is put to them, do you want to be living around lots of poor, and violent Mexicans?

    Status mongering ala Nice White Ladies is one thing. I know quite a few who do that, telling poor Mexican boys in the barrio they will grow up to be engineers (they'd never dream of telling White boys that, they'd prefer them to be erased from society as the original sin of racism or something).

    But they don't want to LIVE in the barrio and Wise undeniably wants to put them there. The lady above, nice, age 57, lives in Aliso Viejo. She's not going to have her home plummet in value to make her status mongering higher.

    That is why Wise is worried. His message got out. He's screwed. As the White population is radicalized.

  85. Obviously, there is no point responding to Tim Wise's miasmic secretion. I have seen it proposed out there that it be sent to businesses and universities around the country, along with a request to please stop patronising this creepy little man, but that is, of course, no use, since his views are, as pointed out, mainstream -- and certainly inside the putrescent cesspit of fetid anti-White hatred that is modern academia.

    Through his subsequent actions, Tim has in fact given us the best ammunition. Following appalled reactions to his open letter, he shut down the comments box, edited the ending, and issued a lengthy and detailed letter of explanation, which of course does nothing but confirm the truth of what we saw in the original text.

    A reminder, if any was needed, that there can be no appeasement, no compromise, no possible accommodation, with the faction he represents.

Unlike the black "Uncle Tom", Wise is NOT being disloyal to Whites since he does not see himself as one. Only as a Jew. Many Jews have this weird fantasy that they share some kind of bond with colored peoples. It exists only in their deluded minds. Blacks and Arabs have no love of them while Hispanics just see Jews as loud, over-privileged, and the wealthiest Whites. Jews will wake up to the reality of this truth too late.

  96. Wise menacingly eludes that the time is coming when whites will be punished and have to pay. The implication seems to be that whites are not only going to be unable to separate themselves from non-whites but rather, will have to forcibly “share” not only what they have built but what they will continue to build. My guess is that Wise understands that even when the US becomes a plurality and blacks and browns control the political power they will permanently lag behind Whites and Asians by every measure that counts. The whole point of having political control is that it allows for transfers of wealth to “equalize” the unequal fruits of HBD.

  98. Yes, Wise's attitude is widespread among a certain type of liberal. A dozen years ago, I was surfing the radio dial one night. I came across a liberal radio talk show host named Mike Malloy (who is still on the air). He said the same things Wise says, "how will whiny white people like it when the nonwhite majority comes in a few years." Malloy also said, "I'd like to take a dirty ball-peen hammer and beat those white racist conservatives on the head."

    Not too surprising Wise is from Tennessee (so am I). He didn't mix well with his schoolmates and they teased him. Wise countered by developing a hero-worship of blacks, starting with athletes he saw on TV possibly.

    Wise found a black person who was friendly and talked to him. Soon, Wise was telling blacks he encountered how much he dispised white people, which was well received.

    It has developed into a life-time job.

    It's called apartheid. A good system in such cases. Very enforceable in the absence of guilt in a significantly large part of the population (even in the presence of boycotts - by whom?).

    Short of that, let's ACTUALLY "take America back" and shut down immigration - and encourage the ones who are here to leave. Time for the body politic to vomit, big time.

  102. The first time I heard of Wise, I saw a campus sign saying that an “anti-racist” would be speaking. This was over a decade ago. I went to hear his speech, but he didn’t actually give one. Instead, he challenged the audience, asking for any racist in the crowd to come forward and debate him. The auditorium was about a quarter full. Many sat in the back of the large, darkened room, like I did. Since no one would debate him in favor of “racism,” he went directly to taking questions. An Asian woman who also sat in the back of the room asked him about Affirmative Action as a means to discriminate against Asians in graduate school admissions. She relayed that she was applying to law school and that she was well aware of the unfair standards to which Asians are held. As I recall, his response was to criticize “cut-throat competition” and offer his own anecdote: he said that his test scores were low, and that the “holistic” admissions approach was the reason that he is where he is. True enough.

    I have to admit that white people are pretty dumb to call racism against their own people and Asian people "reverse racism." I think Sarah Silverman explained exactly why unequal treatment of Asians is acceptable to liberal douches. Was the Boxer Rebellion the last time we had an Asian riot?

  107. Wise is about as Jewish as I am. Jews are the Chosen People. God gave them that designation, and they don't care much about those un-Chosen. Blacks, Hispanics, whatever. Howard Stern makes fun of them, as does Adam Sandler (more gently) in his films. That bit where Stern quizzes Black and Hispanic guys on the street (that Leno ripped off for Jaywalking) comes to mind.

    Nope, Wise is a debased Calvinist. Instead of original sin, "Whiteness" is substituted. The saved and the damned, predestined. And foretold by their status in life and their shouted beliefs.

    Really, substitute "White" for "Satan" and "non-White" for God and you get ... Calvinism. It is amazing, really, how robust the form (though not the substance) of Calvinism remains. Whereas Roman Catholicism and even Evangelicalism that is non-Calvinist have not done well in the Literacy Era.

    "Similarly in District 9, the white male hero like Worthington in Avatar gets under the skin of the aliens and likes it. He aids them to escape so as to return and conquer Earth."

    You're spot on about Avatar, but South African refugee Blomkamp's District 9 was much deeper than that and, as Steve has written, actually rather subversive of PC orthodoxy. On the DVD's audio commentary to the movie Blomkamp muses that he hopes the audience will consider whether the human protagonist in district 9 is helping the alien out of genuine altruism for the other species or because he is being genetically taken over by the alien DNA and his helping the alien resulted from genetic affinity. Blomkamp has obviously thought about sociobiological issues.

  110. If look at Wise's imagery, it is remarkably like John Winthrop's City Upon A Hill except with God replaced with multiculturalism.

    And that is the irony of Wise. In being so "anti-racist" he is the inheritor of a tradition he'd probably despise if he knew it: the Puritans. In doing so of course he lost his Jewishness. What Jew, honestly, looks to a "shining city upon a hill," words taken from ... the Bible? Uttered by Jesus?

    Can anyone imagine Woody Allen uttering those lines? Groucho Marx?

    As far as non-White vs. White demography, there usually occurs a "Silverado moment" whereupon the character played by Kevin Kline realizes, hey no threat to his pal Linda Hunt if the character played by Brian Dennehy is dead. Eventually Whites will realize they can have lots more goodies if lots of people who don't make much money are kicked out. To Mexico or someplace.

    Because its always about the money. ALWAYS.

  111. Those emotions are pretty clear and they are quite common. I read them plenty often on balloon juice which is my leftist blog of choice. Often while I drink my- well not Pabst, but a different beer.

    Timmy is whistlin past the graveyard here. Problem is he assumes an endless tide of "brown" immigration that refuses to assimilate and identify with the American people already here. FAIL.

    Once upon a time the Irish were such, and later Italians and East Europeans. That didn't last forever and neither will this wave of immigrants. For one thing not even Barry and his filibuster proof senate dared propose an amnesty. That's significant methinks.

    Also significant is the election of Marco Rubio to the US senate and the election Raul Labrador to the House from Idaho. I found out today Mr. Labrador was born in Puerto Rico.

    Per Timmy the "brown" Mr. Labrador should be a leftist looking to make a living by taking from whitey. Actually he is a conservative American who worked his way up the old fashioned way- by working.

    Timmy FAIL.

    I wonder what power the leftists and those ethnically predisposed to leftism think they will have after the end of America. Do they really think the Chinese are going to tolerate a non-Chinese banker class? Do they really think the Chinese and Eastern Europeans will pay big bucks to send their offspring to once-great colleges now that they have their own? You'd think the elites would kind of enjoy their position skimming the cream off of a nation of 300M hardworking, productive people. And that they'd work to keep the nation hardworking and productive so that the skimming stayed good, the same way a farmer takes care of his animals. But they seem hell-bent on turning this country into some Columbian meztizo hellhole. I just don't get it.

  114. As Steve has pointed out, a white (and Asian and Jewish) upper class can get along quite well as the overlords of a majority non-white population as in Latin America.

If I were a young white working class guy growing up in California, I would be packing my bags for Boise or Salt Lake City.

    there must be a kind of Jewish mentality even among secular Jews. (Surely, Jews aren't different than others in this regard). One seems to be monomania. Jews embraced One God and One Truth, and most famous Jewish secular intellectuals try to explain EVERYTHING by focusing on one great all-encompassing trut and claim to have come up with The truth. Marx and class theory of history, Freud and sexual theory of psychology, Ayn Rand and radical indivdualism. Right or left, there is a Jewish way of thinking.

    Yup. The Jewish strength - and weakness - is this monomania, this one ideology that everyone must accept. Once you recognize it it's a lot easier to subvert.

  120. Sewanee Diversity Coalition is bringing extremist hatemonger Tim Wise to Sewanee: The University of the South to teach the Diversity Curse how to hate Whitey even more than ever. Paid for by the University. Sewanee endorses anti-Whitey hatred and potential violence against White students at historically White Southern University. Sewanee students are mostly rich, very White, good looking, polished, fashionable, and arrogant as heck. The Diversity Curse will love Time Wise for telling them that hating Whitey at Sewanee is the right thing to do. Will he instigate the blacks to rise up and start beating and robbing the uppity White fraternity boys?

    Sewanee’s Diversity Coalition considers Time Wise an “educator”. Educating the blacks on how to hate Whitey. Why do they need educating in what comes so natural to them?

  124. Judging from his photo he is clearly neither masculine or handsome. He probably wasn't very popular at school. In simpler times he is what would have been called a 'nerd'. Being an "anti-racist" (yeah whatever,) gives him a means and a venue to feel important and be heard. It also keeps him from having to get a REAL job. Being Jewish I can't help but wonder if he takes similar delight in the knowledge that Palestinians will eventually outnumber Jews in the land that was pre-1948 Palestine? Somehow I doubt it.

  126. By the way, earlier today I went to his Facebook profile and saw that he had a post from a week before the election that i can't find there any longer. I am paraphrasing but it said: "People who say the country's budget should be run like a family budget are idiots...family budgets run long term debt, i.e. college loans, current/future value...ANYONE WHO DOESNT UNDERSTAND SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO VOTE NEXT WEEK."

    I'll take that electoral prereq any year any district. I say this because I have tried to tutor blacks. Wisely he seems to have deleted this post.

    My impression is that he is a dummy and the commenter who says that Wise admitted to low scores confirms that. The dumb make widely received blowhards, see Sean Hannity. I'd really like to see more on X chrome/Y chrome IQ and personality traits, b/c this guy (like some others of his mix) seems to have gotten dad's personality and mom's goykopf smarts (although the the revelation that he is 3/4 jewish mucks this up).

    I think you're too nice to have any real comprehension of how driven by hatred this man is. Far from tiring him, the opportunities to speak venomously about his enemies probably energize him. I suspect he'd find enforced idleness more of a challenge than a grueling schedule.

    Sewanee afro aggressively demands more afro faculty:

    http://sewaneeladies.wordpress.com/about/


    iReport — It’s very dangerous what is happening in this University community, please spread this message.

    copy of emails:

    Dear Faculty and Staff,

    As a female faculty member of color I want to publicly express my outrageat the racist web sites/blogs and my continued disappointment in the University administration’s lack of real efforts to address issues surrounding diversity and intolerance at Sewanee. Many students,particularly students of color, are currently experiencing great amounts of anxiety because of these insidious images. To my knowledge little is being done to ease the fears that many of them have shared with me. I also feel a great amount of unease for my children, my colleagues of color and myself. While I truly believe that the ideas and comments found on the web sites/blogs do not represent the Sewanee community, I am concerned that students are losing faith in their professors and administrators in making them feel wanted and safe. I urge every staff member and faculty that truly cares and is committed to diversity and social justice to put pressure of the administration to do the following:

    1. Immediately hire more tenure-track faculty of color

    2. Require that all students complete a social justice requirement

    3. Add more courses to the curriculum that address culture and race in American society.

    Sincerely,
    Kim Gallon

    The question we should be asking Sewanee is, "When will you apologize to your Diversity Quotas for not having brought anti White hatemonger Tim Wise to campus sooner?"

    Given what we've found on the Internet about Sewanee, he should have already spent several semesters there as an Honored Regents Lecturer in Civil Rights, Human Dignity, and the Ongoing Struggle for Equality, with an emphasis on "how to use 'multicultural understanding' tactics to force rich White frat boys to atone for the sins of segregation by holding themselves accountable to people of color for their unearned privileges".

  132. I've looked up pictures of the guy on Google Images, and he seems like a portly, little nerd. But and this is the problem, a nerd who isn't smart enough to make a living as a engineer, lawyer, doctor, professor (In a real subject, not Latin American Studies), whatever, so he spends his time going after the naive undergrads in American academia and their older counterparts in the working world.

    I found something on the Web, where he arguing in the L.A. Times in 2001 that Columbine was but a foretaste of a massive white crime upsurge in the suburbs because and I quote: "What affects the urban "ghetto" today will be coming to a Wal-Mart near you tomorrow, and unless you address the emptiness, pain, isolation and lack of hope felt by children of color and the poor, then don't be shocked when the support systems aren't there for your kids either." In other words, rampant crime is coming to American heartland!!! Better start spending the government money in the inner city Real Soon.

    It's pretty clear what this guy is, he's a pseudo-intellectual who jumps on whatever is in the news at this moment and tries to make himself appear as an "expert" on the topic in order to make a nicer living for himself in his "niche"

    That's an out of pocket $184,000 over four years for those rich, Republican, tantrum-throwing White Parents who send their beautiful, articulate, cultured, intelligent, well-mannered, properly groomed, talented, promising White Children to Sewanee to learn how to transcend that pernicious tendency at getting "too far along" in their ignorant and vile White Identities.

    A little dose of Tim Wise every now and then might be just what's needed to seal the deal and make darn sure that the $184,000 is money well spent.

    The anti White, pro color woman of color from Sewanee, Kim Gallon, fled Tennessee and is now safely ensconced up in Pennsylvania.

    Did the ghost of Nathan Bedford Forrest chase her away from Sewanee?

    Given her areas of specialty, she must be hating herself for leaving here too soon and missing the opportunity to demand that her White students attend Tim Wise next week.


    I never had her for a class last year, but she represents all that Sewanee is now striving to become: diverse, multicultural, change, transformation, apology, overcoming, reconciling, embracing, transforming, caring, compassionate, etc.

    I like the term "Diversity Curse" I've discovered through the Sewanee comments on this blog (you'll be called a "hate blog" by Sewanee faculty).

    Sewanee is definitely cursed with too much Diversity.

    White students know it and talk about it frequently, but not openly, because we would be completely ostracized and socially and academically tortured. We resent all the free stuff given to the blacks and their Posse groups.

    Being a racist is worse than being a child molester in Sewanee. It's so badly perverted up here, that the racists are hounded off the Mountain, while the molesters are compliment for helping children.

    Vile liberals rule Sewanee, and even though the genetic elites are arrogant, the liberal elites are insufferably more so, and empowered to the point of being dangerous to the rest of us.

    Last year, a "hate blog" attacked Sewanee's gays and blacks. You wouldn't believe how insane this campus became after that. Truth is, many of us liked the blog. It told us things we knew to be true, but could never say out loud.

    When Sewanee hired "woman of color" Kim Gallon in the first place, it knew her areas of specialty, and actually believed she'd be good for Sewanee's Whitey White students. Tim Wise's coming and being treated like royalty is no surprise to us!

    Sewanee openly and proudly discriminates against White Males in its hiring practices. At the bottom of all job opening announcements, they put:

    "The University of the South is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
    Minorities and women are encouraged to apply."

    The message is clear. If you are a White Male, Sewanee would rather not have you. Our preference is non whites and women.

    Why haven't any White Males sued Sewanee for race and gender discrimination? Undeniably, Sewanee is sending a message that White Males will be given less consideration than non whites and women.

    Why no class action lawsuit?

    Does Tim Wise's half-Jew status give him minority status enough to apply for a job here, or would he have to sue us first before he'd be hired?

    Anyway, goodbye Kim Gallon. Congrats on that minority AND gender preference that got you your job at Sewanee when you were here. Have you ever met the White Male who didn't get his Sewanee job because of you?

    Kim Gallon
    Assistant Professor of History
    Ettinger 306A
    484-664-3966

    Background:
    Ph.D. University of Pennsylvania
    M.S. Drexel University
    B.A. Rutgers-Camden

    I am a historian of African American life with special interests in gender, mass media, and sexuality in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. I have been specifically engaged in examining the relationships between textual and visual images of race, gender, class and sexuality and the development of early twentieth century African American mass media. Currently I am working on a few projects: a book manuscript entitled Covering the Race in Black and White: Sexuality and Modern Black Newspapers, 1925-1945. The study argues that black newspapers' sensational coverage of homosexuality, heterosexuality and interracial sexuality between 1925 and 1945 actually fit within longstanding racial uplift objectives of African American institutions. In addition to the manuscript, I am also working on a journal-length article, “The Dancing Evangelist: G. W. Becton, the Baltimore Afro-American and Early Twentieth Century African American Religion and Sexuality.” The article details the life and sexuality of George Wilson Becton, a popular traveling evangelist of the first few decades of the twentieth century.

    The classes I teach cover the field African American Studies and the history of black life in the United States and throughout the Diaspora. My courses also offer students opportunities to consider the evolving concepts of sexuality and African American womanhood and manhood and their roles in shaping a collective African American identity. When students leave my classes at the end of the term I want to them to feel as though they have traveled a challenging but satisfying journey, which has illuminated both the past and present lives of African Americans.

    Courses Taught:
    Introduction to African American Studies
    Introduction to the History of Sexuality
    The African American Experience I: to 1896

    Recent Presentations:
    “And May the Best Woman Win!”: RuPaul’s Drag Race and the Historical Function of Race in Drag Culture and Gay Male Communities” presented at Mid-Atlantic Popular American Culture Association (October 28-30, 2010)

  140. Its funny how he takes such a non racial issue of limited government and makes it so.

    But it is a racial issue. Read James Bowery some time -- genetic omnidominance (GOD) and all that:

    The promotion of politics exterminates apolitical genes in the population. The promotion of frontiers gives apolitical genes a route to survival.

    Even sources as diverse as Ibn Khaldun and Albert Jay Nock would recognize centralized government as a racial issue.

  141. It may be hard to understand what could motivate such a man as Wise. What is it that he wants? The concept of "Oikophobia" explains a great deal about him personally as well as how he can make a living lecturing to college students. Oikophobia is the dominant belief system of liberals and colleges try mightily to indoctrinate their students with it.

    What is Oikophobia? Its the reverse of Xenophobia. Its the distain, distrust and hatred of one's own countrymen, nation, traditions and norms. Xenophobes have similar feelings about foreigners and their ways.

    Wise never says that he likes his vision of the American future. He's just so full of loathing for today's Americans that he's giddy over the idea of their demographic defeat. What comes next is of no concern to the Oikophobe, just the vanquishing of his enemy; his own countrymen and his own way of life.

    Oikophobia gives the bizarre ideology of liberals a name, but darned if I can figure out why they have it. Sounds like a job for Steve Sailer.

  150. In the novel 1984 Orwell perfectly described the phenomenon we are seeing here with mr tim wise and his hate filled "lectures" --the "Two Minutes Hate".

    The American fakeLeft has replaced Orwell's Emmanuel Goldstein with the "evil redheck," i.e., the white lower class male, as the object of hate.

    The "two minutes hate" from 1984 is basically drawing upon the fundamental pre-battle bonding rituals of homo sapiens, wherein the tribe would bond together for battle by focusing on the enemy, often using primitive music during this ritual.

    And there are other aspects of the multiculti, diversity-think propaganda regime that remind us of the IngSoc regime in 1984: e.g., the fear of reprisals for using the wrong set of terms. See for example the seinfeld episode where elaine is dating a fellow who george, jerry and elaine wonder might be half black. Seated at the cafe and discussing the matter, one of them asks, "should we even be talking about this?" This is of course similar to the dilemma faced by people in the novel 1984. There were just some things that you were not allowed to say or even discuss.

    Such is the power of propaganda regimes to mold the culture of homo sapiens!

    So what is mr tim wise's role in all this? He is simply reaping the effects of decades of multiculti, white hating propaganda from academia. Why and how did the pro-diversity, anti-white propaganda come about? It is simply and primarily an after effect of many decades of grants from nonprofit foundations such as the Ford Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, etc. These large nonprofits are funded by the rich. And they fund academics who churn out words that favor the interests of those who fund the nonprofits.

    And after decades of such funding, we have a very powerful subculture that exists among the more educated white americans.

    Assuming that's true, probably yes. Just read his articles on Israel.

    As a side note, Israel turned a demographic corner about 5 years ago. The percentage of Jewish births has been rising since then.

    Probably the same thing will happen in the US eventually, i.e. First World people will start growing again, first as a percentage of births and eventually as a percentage of the population.

    Nashville, like a lot of Southern river towns, has always been very Calvinist/Presbyterian rather than Baptist, and they've always had Jews.
    Traditionally, the Baptist/Evangelist/Pentecostals had the hills, and the Episcopal/Presbyterian/Catholic/Jews had the lowland and riverport areas, for obvious reasons.

  154. As other commenters have speculated, Tim Wise must have had some unhappy experiences growing up in the South that lead to his current psychopathy toward all whites -- similar to the way that exposure to hostile half-Jews such as Tim Wise leads some commenters to tar all Jews by association.

    This would be like tarring all Scots for the anti-white actions of Gordon Brown in Britain.

    I just watched a debate between former presidential candidates Howard Dean and Fred Thompson, MC'ed by Ben Steyn.
    http://torydrroy.blogspot.com/2010/11/post-election-analysis.html

    Interestingly, Dean makes the same point that Uncle Tim does. White people's days are over; young people have accustomed themselves to diversity; the Tea Party is the last gasp of an older generation that remembers a white America.

    What Uncle Tim and Dean don't acknowledge is that this isn't some natural phenomenon but rather the result of liberal policies starting with the 1965 immigration act. People like them made it happen through law, vigorously denied it might have negative consequences, and now feel confident enough to gloat over their success in destroying us.

  161. One point that has been overlooked here is Tim's focus on old white people. This allows Tim to respond to any accusations of anti-white racism by saying that it isn't white people per se who are the problems, just the older generation, and therefore he isn't really anti-white, just anti-old-racist-white.

    But the thing is, even if the situation were reversed, and the percentage of whites in America were increasing rather than decreasing, the older generation would still die off! The older generation always dies off. So age isn't an issue one way or the other. But if you take age out of the equation, all that is left is an assertion that an America that is less white is better than an America that is more white. So how is that any less racist than saying the reverse?

    On a separate point, I'm finding a lot of the talk about Jewish conspiracies in these comments to be quite disturbing. I'm not aware that any of my own ancestors were anything other than European Christians, so I'm not saying this out of any sort of clan loyalty, but many of the comments about Jews just sound like crazy talk to me, and I think their appearance in this venue is damaging to the credibility of the HBD movement as a whole.

    (I will however acknowledge that Tim Wise is a really funny looking guy. If I looked like that maybe I'd hate my own race too!)

  164. Someone mentioned protesting this guy's appearances. It wouldn't work. Why? Because he is white. If there were a black guy who said the same stuff, you could protest him, because you could call it "racist". (Eg if Farrakhan were invited to speak at Cal State LA, trouble would break loose.) By contrast, if you protest Tim and call him racist, his campus sponsors will say "But he's White, so what on earth are you talking about? How silly you must be!". So maybe that's actually the essence of Tim's Racket: be someone who will, for a fee, give an anti-white speech on campus (where lots of hard lefties and minority grievance people crave such speeches), but be white, making it hard for anyone to denounce the event as a hate-filled speech that was over the line.

  168. Is he a Jew?
    Wise attended Hebrew school, and -- in the right company -- has discussed Jews with the terms "we", "us", "my people".


    You're only half-right. He did attend Hebrew school (or I'll take your word for it that he did), but he refers to Jews in "we" and "us" terms in his writings, very publicly. Consider this snippet for example:

    Honestly, what ability does Farrakhan have to do me any harm, or any Jew for that matter? When was the last time those of us who are Jewish had to worry about whether or not our Farrakhan-following employer was going to discriminate against us? Or whether our Fruit of Islam loan officer was going to turn us down for a mortgage? Or whether our Black Muslim landlord was going to screw us out of a rent deposit because of some anti-Jewish feelings, conjured up by reading the Nation’s screed on Jewish involvement in the slave trade?

    Even his comparatively milquetoast anti-Zionism, he defends, not in terms of universal moral principles, but purely in terms of... you guessed it ... Jewish self-interest.

    Federation principal Mark Finkelstein claimed I had shown a disregard for the well-being of Jews, despite the fact that my argument has long been that Zionism in practice has made world Jewry less safe than ever.

    Tim Wise may say that he's white (his book was called "White Like Me") but at this point almost nothing could persuade me that he actually identifies as white. Even if he says he does, he's lying or in a state of extreme cognitive dissonance.

    Tim Wise's writing is often written in an angry stream of conciousness style (considered trendy by his readers). He's not at all guarded, and it doesn't cost him any.

  171. The irony is that Uncle Tims are the ones who will make any kind of "socialism" or "equitable wealth redistribution" impossible in America. It seems quite clear that left wing economic policies and flat income distributions are only possible in racially homogeneous countries.

    Socialism has never been about flat income distributions. You're confusing means and ends. It's about the rule of a "scientific" elite over the masses. If this happens to be easier to accomplish with racially heterogeneous masses than with a homogeneous one (and it is) then socialists have shown themselves quite eager to being about those heterogeneous masses.

    The whole "redistribution of income" thing was a socialist tactic, one which they can and do swap out for other tactics without touching their core convictions.

    This is the reason why I no longer support Israel, and view Israel as a hypocritical, violent and racist state."


    South African Jews were generally anti-Apartheid. That's not the same as "trashing Afrikaners"; that's just believing in democracy and equal rights.

  182. Lies of Wise:
    gnxp
    (...)
    Wise’s next paragraph of arguments is so full of make-believe that I am quoting it in full. Literally every sentence is a made-up-on-the-spot fact:

    ” . . . genetic differences between . . . so-called races are still about one tenth the size of any other subspecies on the planet. In other words, generally biologists or geneticists argue, this is the generally accepted science, that in order for two groups or any multiple of groups to be considered subspecies or races or breeds of the same species, they must differ, or they usually will differ, in fact they always will, there will be more difference between the breeds, between the subspecies, between the so-called races, than there will be within the so-called breed, within the so-called subspecies or within the so-called race. In humans, that is not the case. On average, humans will vary by eight to nine times more within a population group than between a population group so that I as a European-descended person will be eight to nine times more different from another European person genetically than I would be from someone who is not at all European, who was Asian, or who was African.
    HOST: That’s evolution for you.


    TIM: That is not true for any other species on the planet. The other species tend to differ by five times, ten times, twenty times more between groups than within the groups. So we do not meet the test as human beings for subspecies or for races.”


    To list the lies and then discuss them in turn:
    1) Genetic differences between human races are 10 times smaller than between the races of any other animal on earth.


    2) “The generally accepted science” for determining sub-species is that the genetic differences between the two populations must be larger the differences within the populations.

    3) Animal sub-species typically differ five times, ten times, twenty times more between groups than within the groups.

    4)Any given European is eight to nine times more genetically similar to any given African and Asian than he is to any other given European (Lewontin’s Fallacy).

    First let’s examine Wise’s claim that “genetic differences between . . . so-called races are still about one tenth the size of any other subspecies on the planet.” Jared Taylor challenges Wise on this claim using dogs and Wise boldly and smugly repeats his claim as a scientific fact:
    JARED: Well, and do you think the genetic differences between subspecies of dogs are greater or less than genetic differences than say between Australian Aborigines and Japanese? Are they greater or less?
    TIM: Well the differences between the breeds, the differences between, let’s say, German Shepherds, and a, I don’t know, cockapoo or something, that’s even a pure breed, a poodle, those differences would absolutely be, I think they’re on the order of ten times the difference between...

    JARED: Wrong.


    Wise doesn’t know what he is talking about. Not only are the genetic differences within any one dog breed greater than the differences between any of them, the differences within a single dog breed, such as Chihuahuas, is actually greater than the genetic difference between two different recognized SPECIES of animals - wolves (Canis Lupus) and coyotes (Canis latrans).

Jewish intellectuals will not have the same power in a brown America, they'll be viewed as contemptible whites, and therefore suspect no matter how willing they are to sell-out their own side. Brown people distrust whites that act against their own interest because that behavior is anti-instinctual, and they are viewed as punks.

    EAU: Stop Tim Wise From Speaking at Sewanee, TN
    Posted on: 2010-11-07 13:05:45


    Send correspondence to: jafisher@sewanee.edu,jpowen@sewanee.edu,
    spurple@sewanee.edu,local@tennessean.com,newsroom@newschannel5.com

    To whom it may concern;

    It is our understanding on the 9th of November, Sewanee will host Mr. Tim Wise to speak to your students regarding "racism."

    Please be advised that Mr. Wise is well known for his blatant bigotry against persons of European extraction. In spite of his credentials, denials (and ethnicity) Mr. Wise is not an 'anti racist.' Mr. Wise is an anti-white activist, but he disguises it in order to further what amounts to a Marxist based degeneration of European Americans in favor of a multicultural socialist Utopia; an activity we understand that also happens to pay quite well.

    His caustic and mean spirited diatribes are well known and normally follow course with a screed he penned (here) regarding the recent Republican election victory and white American voters:

    "We just have to be patient.

    And wait for your hearts to stop beating.

    And stop they will.

    And for some of you, real damned soon truth be told."

    While Mr. Wise has since claimed that he is only referring to what he calls the "white right", the fact of the matter is he is likely including all of our mothers, fathers, sons and daughters in his hateful declarations whose view points diverge from his own. Moreover, following Mr. Wise's sick logic it should also be acceptable to wish the hearts of those on the "non-white left" to stop beating as well.

    In order to maintain the integrity of the University of the South's student body and your reputation, we strongly and publicly recommend that you cancel Mr. Wise's appearance.

    sincerely;

    Mr. Drago Rendl
    Mr Frank Roman

  192. For what its worth, the vast majority of South African Jews decamped after the end of apartheid, knowing that neither their lives nor their assets were now safe. Some have stayed, and done very well out of it, and good luck to them.

    In my fairly extensive experience, Jews were quite prominent in the anti-apartheid movement and some, putting their own physical lives in danger, were very committed to the cause. There were also numerous English whites involved as well, and a few Afrikaaners. Many of these people were out-and-out communists, which was at the time a serious crime in SA. These were not armchair amateurs and I knew at least one who died in police custody.

    On the other hand, there was also a lot of mutual help between SA and Israel, and the majority of Jewish South Africans did not wholeheartedly support the aims and methods of black liberation movements.

    Frankly, a lot of them did not believe the blacks would make a good job of running the country and that's why so many of them voted with their feet and got out, often with a heavy heart and leaving behind elderly parents and good businesses.

    Middle-of-the road, intelligent whites were very conflicted by the situation in apartheid SA, and this is exactly where I would place the majority of Jews in actual fact. Irrespective of what they may say about the evils of apartheid, they knew there was a dark side to "liberation" and that it would have as many if not more victims than apartheid itself.

    And they did not intend to be amongst them.

    As for the heroic-justice-above- all-else types, I hope they are reflecting on the anti-Semitism of the new South African government (witness Durban II) and how their sanctimony has resulted in an own-goal against Israel in particular and Jews in general.

    But I doubt we will here an apology for this, even to their own folks, and not at all to the rising pile of murdered Afrikaners and other whites.

    South African Jews were Jewish Jingoists, which is hardly tantamount to "believing in democracy and equal rights." Where Jews are the majority, they want Israel. Where Jews are the minority, they champion minority interests. It's about their ethnic interests, which is why what they advocate changes based on their situation on the ground.

    Tim Wise's anti-racism is not merely the inverse of, say, Bull Connor's racism. It's worse.

    AFAIK even the Klan didn't seek to erase Blacks from reality, simply to keep 'em down.

    Tim Wise has a problem with the existence of non-leftist Whites and a White-majority America. He burns with quasi-religious fervor not merely for its overturning, but for its utter erasure from memory.

    BTW, Wise appears tomorrow at Cal State LA. Your tax dollars at work.
