Repost from the old site.
As usual, this post has been accused of racism, this time by a bunch of libertarians who have nothing better to do than thrown epithets around. Blog position on racism is here. Sometimes I wonder if I should just call myself a racist for the Hell of it so I can get on with my life and be done with all these rejoinders. Why was this post even accused of racism anyway? I don’t get it.
This post also got accused of sexism, which is kind of an honor, as I hardly ever get called that. If I’m ever really bored, maybe I will write up a blog position statement in sexism? I wonder if the purpose of these characterizations is to keep the person tied up running around denying things?
Just to be an ass, and to piss off people who call me a sexist, I will link to the glorious I Hate Women site. And, as we believe in equal time, I will also link to the excellent I Hate Men site (actually the sites are sort of brother and sister sites, as the owners know each other. The hate mail page on I Hate Women is great. I was pleased to see so many women out there hate women too. I knew there were some sensible ones out there.
One of the latest political fads is something called libertarianism. What it means, more or less, in an economic sense, is that the government will not regulate business in any way, shape or form. This includes any and all rights for workers, consumers, society, health and safety codes, environmental rules, etc.
There will be no laws against monopolies, so blatantly unfair cartels will inevitably arise everywhere, illegally thwarting all competition.
Workers, consumers and society will be screwed over by these nasty monopolies, the same way the phone (all phone companies, but ATT is by far the worse), cell phone (all are at least utterly unregulated), cable (all are monopolies), oil (a de facto price-fixing cartel), computer software (Microsoft) and hardware (Intel) monopolies do now.
One of the comforts of modern capitalism is that if a business treats you like crap, you can always easily take your body and money somewhere else. Not so with a monopoly. With a monopoly it’s bend over and take it, with no options to go elsewhere, as there is no competition. It follows that any monopoly granted by the state (phone, cable) must be a regulated monopoly, otherwise the consumer is in for a major screwing.
Libertarians love monopolies. The more monopolies the better. Libertarian-world will probably be one giant monopoly, and all the libertarian consumers will get reamed by the monopolies just like everyone else, but the libertarians will probably shout for joy as they get big business-sodomized, theory being all that matters.
In libertarianism, there will be no state anything. All will be privatized.
No state education, health care, roads, sidewalks, streetlights, bridges, ports, sewers, lands, electricity, plumbing, building or street codes, water systems, street lights, road signs, parking meters, emergency services, Social Security, Disability, school breakfasts or lunches or postal delivery.
No garbage collection, liquor or cigarette laws or taxes, transportation or aviation agencies, trade commissions or agencies, game wardens or laws, ambulances, immigration agents, border control, planning commissions, business licenses, no state anything, except I guess an army, cops, and firemen, and printing money, although some libertarians oppose some or all of that too.
There will be minimal taxes, and what taxes that exist will probably be slammed on the working stiff, not the “entrepreneur” that the libertarians worship.
In other words, libertarianism is Haiti.
Supposedly this is a revolutionary theory. The joke is that this was the actually existing state of capitalism as it first developed, and continued to be the state of capitalism until the 20th Century in the West. It is still the state of capitalism in much of the Third World. Go to Mexico, India, Peru, El Salvador, Thailand or China to see libertarianism in all its shining glory.
Yet I digress.
What about who supports it? Libertarianism is heavily made up of of healthy young men in the 20’s and 30’s making very good incomes. A few older guys and married men are into it, and they are usually making very good incomes too.
There are not many libertarian women, because the life of woman is vulnerable, as she is the bearer and raiser of the very “weak”and vulnerable people, in this case children, so despised by libertarians. And woman is vulnerable herself, as biology and cultures the world over inform us.
The number of poor, low income or working class libertarians is not large.
As these libertarian and far-right men age, many shed off some of their extreme conservatism or libertarianism, as entropy inevitably attacks their mortal coils. In particular, they often endorse more socialist health systems. A tiresome saying says, “Any man at age 20 who is not a socialist lacks a heart, and any man at age 40 who is still a socialist lacks a brain.”
Well, wages of time being what they are, I’ve noticed that older conservative guys sort of move back into that age-20 thing as they grey and hobble. Past 65, you are one of the “weak” that the libertarians hate so much, and most smart American conservatives figure this out.
But this post was about libertarianism and race.
Hanging about the libertarian scene on the Net, one notices something: almost 100% of US racists, racialists, White nationalists, White Supremacists, racial anti-Semites, Holocaust Deniers, along with Indian upper-caste Hindutvas, Asian (usually Overseas Chinese or Indian) Supremacists, in short, racial Supremacists of many types, seem to endorse “libertarianism” as their philosophy.
Whether many of these folks (especially the US Mighty Whiteys) are real libertarians is dubious. Most White racialists are really just very rightwing small government types who want low taxes and and end to social programs. Most don’t want to end regulations on business, most oppose free trade, and most want to restrict immigration. All are anti-libertarian positions.
Hatred of liberalism, socialism and of course Communism is an obsession with Mighty Whiteys, as Whitey and other natural racial and caste elites can make it on their own, thank you very much.
White racialists and their Indian and Chinese allies see government as existing only to steal from the hardworking superior light races and castes and give to lazy, overbreeding, degenerated, inferior dark races who refuse to work and instead live off their paler superiors, while conversely hating, insulting and even committing crimes against the superior lighter races.
So here in the US, National Socialism is dead on the racialist scene. Go to Stormfront and do a search and see how many socialists show up. American Renaissance is hostile to all government social programs. Even Overthrow, a purportedly National Socialist rag, was still “libertarian socialist” last time I checked.
To White racialists, Government can’t do anything for the White man and supports the enemies of Mighty Whitey, so it needs to go away.
Conversely, in Russia, most racialists are explicitly socialist in one way or another, usually in a Third Positionist, National Socialist, or Strasserist way (Interesting links – check em out – also interesting links from ADL bitches Morris Dees, of the clownish SPLC, and Chip Berlet, “anti-racist” super-twit, on Third Positionism).
Saying that almost all US racists and racialists are libertarian types is not the same as saying the obverse, and I would not be so wicked as to suggest that.
But lurk around the libertarian world on the Net a bit and one notices disturbing things. There is a lot of sympathy for the overt scientific racists Charles Murray, Philippe Rushton, Linda Gottfredson and Richard Lynn’s hardline views on race and IQ, which translated into colloquial English, are just, “Niggers sure are stupid!” Some throw Mexicans in with the dumb Blacks.
The message is clear: cognitive elites, and the White and Northeast Asian races, are superior, and all those dark races are inferior. Gene Expression, the premiere cognitive elite blog, is packed with libertarians and extreme rightwingers (libertarianism is the official political philosophy of the site).
GNXP, in addition to the usual White Supremacists, also has Overseas Chinese Supremacists, Upper Caste Indian Hindu Supremacists and just plain Indian Supremacists.
Steve Sailer, a popular scientific racist on the Net, calls himself a libertarian.
Increasingly, these various Eastern racialist Supremacist formulations are forming some tentative and uneasy alliance with the Mighty Whiteys. Some not obviously racist libertarians support Holocaust Revisionism, while others advocate historically for “neutrality in World War” and other gut-wrenching positions.
One thing is clear: libertarian-world is not friendly to Blacks or Browns in theory, prose, or mindset. Any libertarian vision, as an overtly ruling class philosophy at odds with the common man, would harm disadvantaged and mostly-poor non-upper-caste Blacks and Browns anywhere on Earth.
Indeed, the world over, de facto libertarian third world states where the government doesn’t do a damn thing for anyone already are harmful – deadly harmful – to Black and Brown people.
Libertarian hostility to People of Color is not generally rooted in any real racial hatred per se inherent in libertarianism itself. As a philosophy, it is probably race-neutral at core. Instead, Social Darwinists simply see Whites, Asians and natural elites as having won the race, and are entitled to all the fruits of victory, hence they embrace libertarianism as a way to lock in their elite dominance.
Also, White, Asian and Upper Caste Asian Supremacists see in libertarianism a vindication for their elite dominance over others. So racists are attracted to libertarianism and not the other way around.
It follows then that any Hispanic or Black libertarian in the US is a race traitor working with the White man to harm his people. Black libertarians are House Negroes named Tom sucking up to their White massas, selfishly promoting libertarianism to preserve their good-paying White collar brain jobs.
Hispanic libertarians are either mimicking the Hispanic elites in Latin America (“libertarians” themselves) or objectively working against their people.
One wonders why such folks even exist. Here is one. This Black fool, who describes himself as a libertarian, wages Holy War on the countless legions of scientific racists populating the Internet, who are, of course, almost all libertarians and rightwing extremists like him. This is ridiculous. It’s akin to a man who goes to live in a flophouse and then ends up in continuous crusade against bums.
Abiola Lapite, an incredibly belligerent, irritable, arrogant, immature, rude, selfish and conceited upper class Nigerian expat who has the outrageous gall to describe himself as an “intellectual elitist” (Good God!), has only lined up with libertarianism to preserve his ultra-selfish bourgeois upper-class lifestyle.
Lapite has been banned from several prominent Internet forums, has been described as one of the worst-behaved prominent trolls in the blogosphere, and repeatedly threatens to sue those who attack him on the Net for libel. Fortunately, Britain had the pleasure of being tainted with this clown’s presence back in 2004, but he is now polluting New York City by existing there.
He claims to have built, all by himself, a search engine that could easily kill Google’s (He says any intelligent person could easily build one!) yet the company that he worked at, due to their stupidity, refused to recognize his unheralded genius and idiotically refused to invest in his Google-killer (!).
This is narcissism in its most virulent and pathological form. He is simply a Netkook, an Internet crank extraordinaire. An interesting question is whether the Net (especially blogs) is increasing narcissism, or is merely serving as a flame lit up in blinking neon lights to the narcissist moths.
Then he ends up waging continuous Holy War against his fellow libertarians for their anti-Black racist BS. Well duh! Libertarianism is consonant with and an ideal seedbed for every Black-hostile POV around (though I’m sure the Haitian Duvalierists find it endearing). Libertarianism is not, and probably cannot be at any time in the foreseeable future, Black-friendly to the Black masses of the world.
On the other hand, significant numbers of Whites and Asians stand to benefit from libertarianism. Even here, it will typically only benefit the top 20% of society. Repeated studies have shown that the “libertarian” neoliberal reforms of the last 30 years have only benefited the top 20% of society. This has held through time and across widely varying societies.
So why do Black libertarians even exist?
These are narcissistic young men who care nothing about their people and care only about their preening, overbearing, loudmouthed and ultimately grotesquely immature selves. They commit treason against their own kind and ally with the enemy, then rant about their “funny” White friends with their nasty White minds.
Good God. What were they thinking?
