Not a White Hispanic

The Google Guys aren't really into Easter, so for today's Google Doodle, they're celebrating the birthday of Cesar Chavez by putting up a religious icon depicting somebody or other: That guy in the Philippines who gets himself nailed to a cross every Good Friday? Don Ho resurrected to sing "Tiny Bubbles" one more time? Apparently, Google doesn't have any photos of Cesar Chavez on file, so they had to go with an artist's conception of what Chavez must have looked like as He rose on the third day in his raiment white as snow.
Artist's conception of Cesar Chavez
(Chavez's photo unavailable on Internet as of press time)
It's a funny illustration of how the union boss's birthday has transmogrified into a racial-religious holiday, a celebration of today's religion of race.

In reality, the Arizona-born Chavez was a pretty typical-looking Mexican-American of his generation, as illustrated by how he looked rather like the Texas-born golfer Lee Trevino.

Over the decades, Mexicans in the U.S. have been getting more Indio-looking as the more recent immigration is from farther south in Mexico.

  7. I think it's awesome that while Congress is contemplating surrender to Mexico, Google has aligned itself with a Mexican-American who opposed illegal immi-vasion.

    Besides, it's hard for me to get behind that Jesus fellow since all of his richest, best connected proponents are in favor of immi-vasion, too.

    It's an Easter parable about the Holy Immigrant.

    He Has Risen, from south to north. The saintly Latino who sought only to feed His family walked across the Rio Grande to do the jobs Americans won't do. He knew we have sufficient loaves and fishes to feed a multitude. He turned water into wine, thereby racking up a few DUIs. At last he was nailed at a crossing at which he did not observe the red light. The pharisees entombed Him in jail, only to find it empty three days later, due to the intercession of the Holy Sequester.

  20. One reason Chavez was popular with sophisticated Californians was that there was no cost to them. Chavez led strikes against lettuce growers but only growers of iceberg lettuce. Of course only a prole would eat iceberg. The best people only ate butter lettuce.

    That's all in the past for me. My doctor now has me on a low lettuce diet.

    I was sitting here this morning getting disgusted with Google again for politicizing a search engine.
    I was a teen-ager in the 60's when Chavez was big, and I remembered him as having gray hair on the sides. Liberals can never tell the truth on anything. They have to fabricate every single thing all day long, creating fantasy worlds. For a man like me who wants all truth all the time, living in a country like this disgusts me. Is there any country anywhere on the planet that is dedicated to the truth ?
    I want to live some place where I am not lied to.

  22. Slightly off topic, but a week from today is WrestleMania 29, which is a huge cultural event for many Hispanics, blue collar White swing voters, and children.

    One of the main events is a match between Alberto Del Rio and Jack Swagger, who they've hyped an immigration patriot. While some mainstream conservatives and Glenn Beck have complained that Swagger is WWE's attempt to brand the Tea Party as "racist," the McMahons have cast Swagger as the heel the fans are supposed to hate, and he has nothing to say about Tea Party issues like taxes.

    Frankly, the citizenist speeches from Swagger and his manager Zeb Colter on jobs, English, political correctness, and demographic change are more internally coherent than what you hear from GOP politicians like Ryan, Paul, or Rubio. His catchphrase is "We the people," which is the opening of the Constitution's preamble laying out the purpose of America is to provide better lives for "ourselves and our posterity." It's a strange state of affairs when a WWE villain is the only public figure making these arguments.

  23. I went to Google earlier this morning and saw the image. When I did, I thought, "Oh my goodness, Google has decided to show an image of a black Jesus." Then I hovered my mouse over the image and felt relieved. Okay, it is just a black Cesar Chavez.

  24. Be that as it may--and the fact that Chavez was anti-illegal-immigration in his own time--, let's admit that if he were alive today, he'd be on the side of Obama, globalist Jews, and amnesty.

    His stands were tactical, not principled. He thought back then that illegals would be bad for his core constituency. Now, that the constituency has changed, Chavez will have changed too.
    It's like Sierra Club too changed its views on immigration.

    Chavez wasn't opposed to illegal immigration per se on the basis of principle.
    Just like American labor unions began to embrace illegal workers, Chavez would have done the same thing.
    The essential spirit of the man was to serve his own kind. Today, brown power means being pro-illegal.

    Similarly, though MLK said nothing about 'gay marriage', were he alive today, he would have been for it. Good tactical politics. Gays got the money and clout and are working to form an alliance with blacks against white conservatives. That's what really matters.

    Google is run by globs, aka globalists and Jews. Though Jews are rich and high above illegal aliens, they wanna seem as being one with the underdog against uncaring and mean 'racist' white conservative America.
    This is to be expected.

    The only thing we can do is spell out what is really happening. Jews are funding and promoting anti-white causes and forces.

  53. If I were an indo-looking Mexican, I would be upset. t strikes me as dishonest flattery to elevate and endlessly celebrate third-tier thinkers and actors if they belong (or at least can be considered to belong) to ethnic minorities. For that matter, I would have been upset in grade school if I were black and I had been taught, as all children are, that the inventor of peanut products, George Washington Carver, had a place among the most eminent scientists, such as Newton, Einstein, and Planck. If I were black, I would be happy with MLK Day because he was the greatest person in a category (civil rights leader). If I were Mexican, I would want a Mexican hero who was the greatest person in a broad category of achievement, not the junior division of a category.

    Indeed, if I were black or Latino, I would also be very bothered by the dearth of outstanding achievement among my people. I believe I would hop on the bandwagon of identifying genes for high IQ and try to convince members of my group to use technology to select zygotes with these genes so that after one or perhaps a few generations we could create pure blacks/Latinos who were smarter than anyone who had ever lived.

    And you tirelessly lay down cover fire for Jews because you're "Scots-Irish." And Jewishness is all about religion, hence the fact that scads of Jews are agnostic or "secular Jews" and totally accepted as Jews by Jewry as a whole.

  57. The first wave of silicon valley entrepreneurs, the ones that started the semiconductor fabs in the early 80's that gave the valley its name, were much more oriented towards the icons of free-market economics (e.g. Ayn Rand, Milton Friedman, etc.). The current wave of successful technology entrepreneurs seem to glorify socialist politicians and other icons of statism. This is a mystery to me.

    Robert Noyce, who co-founded Fairchild Semiconductor in 1957 and Intel in 1968, and many of the other great men of early Silicon Valley were Protestants. Steve has written about this, as has Tom Wolfe:


    Robert Noyce and His Congregation

    Tom Wolfe, 08.25.97

    ROBERT NOYCE, INVENTOR OF THE silicon microchip and co-founder of Intel, grew up in Grinnell, Iowa, one of countless small towns in the Midwest that had been founded in the 19th century as religious communities by so-called Dissenting Protestants: Congregationalists, Presbyterians, Baptists, Methodists, and many others. What Dissenting Protestants dissented from was the Church of England and its elaborate ties to British upper-class life. The founder of the town of Grinnell (1854) was a young New England Congregational minister, Josiah Grinnell, who was weary of the decadence of the East Coast and wanted to establish a City of Light out on the virgin plains.

    The Congregational Church had no hierarchy. Each congregation was autonomous. A minister was a teacher rather than a holy shepherd with a flock. Each member of the Congregation was supposed to be his own priest, in direct communication with God.

    When Noyce, whose father was a Congregational minister, was growing up in the 1930s and 1940s, there were still people walking around in Grinnell who had known Josiah Grinnell personally. They were getting old -- Grinnell had died in 1891 -- but they were walking around, and Josiah's hand still lay heavily upon his town of 7,000 souls. There were subtle gradations of status in Grinnell, and it was better to be rich than poor, but the important thing was not to show it. To all intents and purposes, there were only two social classes: those who were hard-working, God-fearing, church-going, and well educated and those who were not.

    ...


    I'm not at all sure that Ayn Rand and Milton Friedman were icons to Noyce and other founders of Silicon Valley.

  68. Kind of hard to view anything Google does these days as something other than currying political favor, especially with Eric "Antitrust" Schmidt around. Remember they are only physically a California company--for tax purpose all that rev goes through Ireland, Estonia, San Juan, etc. You don't think Apple puts the same who-whom considerations into every slight movement? I am sure the day when they suddenly decide to give free iPads to every MEChA local is not far off.

    As for Chris Hensworth (Hemsworth?) I had to look up who he is. That is just lazy kvetching at race-realist tropes, right? Contrive the nearest stock blond Aryan from the funny pages; instead you might consult some recent covers of Us Weekly or Cosmo, or watch a minute of any primetime garbage drama concerning a 110-pound crime-solving botanist woman with dual Ph.Ds and a magazine-writing career on the side and note the immediate exterior presentation of the star (she might have a hip mocha-mix 23-year-old friend on the show who runs computer simulations for her).
