    Teachers in red-state America are hard at work teaching us all a lesson. The American mythos has always rested on a belief that this country was born out of a kind of immaculate conception, that the New World came into being and has forever after been preserved as a land without the class hierarchies and...
  • @WorkingClass
    In post war America we had that rarest of phenomena. A prosperous working class. So prosperous that they began to imagine that they were "middle" class. In America, middle class means middle income. Americans know nothing of class dynamics. That stuff is for Communists.

    If working class black, feminist and queer Americans were to realize that they are working class they would also realize that they have much in common with the dreaded white working class beginning with their relationship to capital. This is not to say that the white working class is not in need of consciousness raising themselves. Next - black and white, male and female, queer and straight, native and immigrant, young and old, religious and non religious, Democrats and Republicans - would discover the power of solidarity. Working together the working class can bring the Capitalist system to a halt. Give us our fair share of the profits or you are out of business.

    The whole working class wants peace and prosperity. Work and wages. The ruling class gives us war and welfare. The ruling class works hard to keep the workers powerless and divided among themselves. Identity politics is a strait jacket for the working classes.

    Neither of our political parties represents workers. Either could morph into a Labor Party if the leadership wanted it. But there is no money in it. They would win elections but also the enmity of the Oligarchs. The .001 percent. If workers would have a voice in government they will have to create a Labor Party. Only the working class can help the working class.

    The biggest interest of the white working class is in not becoming a minority surrounded by non-whites who hate them.

  • Arising from the shadows of the American repressed, Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump have been sending chills through the corridors of establishment power. Who would have thunk it? Two men, both outliers, though in starkly different ways, seem to be leading rebellions against the masters of our fate in both parties; this, after decades in...

    @Faust
    I do tire of the amount of antisemitism I see here on the Unz review. I know a great many Jews (after 35 years of practicing law, how could it be otherwise). While many approve of Israel, in the sense that they are glad it is there; very few are Zionists. They might approve of the defense of Israel, that because they are Americans (a few I have known I would have to rate as communists) and Israel is our only reliable ally in that part of the world. Granted, to my mind, that alliance subsists because of a common enemy.

    Why do we need an ally in the M.E.? And just what do we get for the $3-400 billion we give them? They attacked the Liberty and shopped Pollard’s production to our worst enemy, causing immense damage to us. The ADL, BB, and AJC work to keep our borders open to our enormous detriment. Jewish political power is distorting our national life. What other conclusion is possible?

  • I recommend Kevin Macdonald’s Culture of Critique for all of the nervous nellies who say things like ‘so many US jews are not zionists but support Israel’…a wonderful Alice/Wonderland locution if I ever heard one.

    Jews are the fundamental reason for the Jewish Wars ongoing now for over 20 years, the destruction of the Arab middle east and its consequent Migrant invasion of Europe, the Black Insurrection at home starting with the jew foundation of NAACP back in the 20s, and the 1965 Immigration Act written by jews and campaigned for for 40 years after the 1924 Immigration Act which established the limits on immigration, TV and media negroization of US culture ( I hear the word Kultur and I take out my revolver), the Mexican invasion, and above all…

    the subversion of White Liberals like my ex-self. Jews work in Darwinian fashion for jewish survival and domination of peoples they are around. Can’t blame them for that…it is totally Darwinian about which I of course approve because it is just the way it is, biologically and Evolution wise.

    (Let us overlook Communism for now, which was a Jewish Distortion of White Socialism in 19th century Europe, and responsible for the world war that killed, along with communism’s local murders, way over 100 million people. See The Black Book of Communism, etc.. Communism started world war two.)

    However, Jews always go too far, they want to kill or enslave us all, per “Kill Them All” of the OT, Deuteronomy as I recall. Or enslave them all. The only problem is that Jews are too few to accomplish this. China could do it but that is why we got ICBMs.

    In one our two words, Jews Go Too Far and the goyem figure it out sooner or later. The only reason jews are still with us is that the Catholic Church always protected them from enraged peasants. Jews get whacked from time to time, like Chinese in their diaspora.

    With their current effort of destruction of the middle east, and even their amazing chutzpah in promoting muzzie migration to Europe and the US, at once to stir the pot yet again like their “let’s you and them fight” (from Transactional Analysis, Eric Berne of the 60s ?) and Games Jews Play, as well as destroy Europe and the US as home to the only people that can destroy them, that is Whites, Jews play White Out to their own extreme danger of getting Wiped Out, this time for all time.

    Nothing personal here, I know jews who are just fine, if they could only get over their extreme ethno chauvinism. For certain, they are much better than Arabs/Muzzies. However, they are all Semites and therefore extreme killers of outsiders/non-believers. Which reminds me of the oft stated view of lots of jews today who have forgotten Jehovah, that they themselves are the God, in so many words, and must be worshipped as a holy people. Presumably to rule over the goyem as per usual, like the crazy muzzles. Both of them are in for Death soon.

    The Arabs might be driven back to muzzie land and contained indefinitely, or maybe they will discover the Sharp Light of nukes turning their deserts to glass, as the real knee-jerk white folks from the fly-over zone often put it.

    The jews will simply be pogromed in their diaspora and or delivered to an Israel Disarmed by an offer they cannot refuse from the Pentagon, maybe in the second term of Trump, the Scots Warrior, part of our warrior class of Whites.

    The only way that Jews can survive is to stop making war at least on Whites. If they do not, they are finished, sort of like the neocons who have made so many mistakes that they are now unwelcome in the jew party…the Demagogues, especially by their putative pupils-in-revolution, the Blacks, and now the mexers as well, and, and, and golly gee whiz, the white kids who scratch their altruistic heads about zionism, Inc. , as well as the apparently new Repugnican Party aka Trumpeters. Where can neocons go to finish their Jewish Century? (They are Thinking about it.)

    Trump know how to handle the Jews, very clever.

    So, Kevn Macdonald’s Culture of Critique as well as his earlier two books on the Jews in really the best of all the anti-Semitic literature. My only criticism of KM is that he tends to minimize White Altruism as the other factor in White Surrender.

    Bearing that in mind have a good read!

  • @Jus' Sayin'...
    To equate the earlier - and still extant --"Tea Party" movement with the later Occupy Wall Street and Black Lives Matter movements is ridiculous. The "Tea Party" movement was spontaneous and unfunded, lacked any centralized organization, arose from within and was primarily supported by the middle and working classes, and was bitterly opposed by the political establishment, both Democrat and Republican.

    Both the Occupy Wall Street and Black Lives Matter movements were almost entirely funded by George Soros., This is a matter of public record. Soros's organizations also stage-managed most of these groups' activities. Admittedly, Soros hijacked some spontaneous mob outbreaks that began before he was even aware of them. But these would have been local and disappeared quickly without the suppport from and control by Soros-funded organizations. The participants in these Soros-funded groups were a congeries of the usual Negro looters, unemployable students who felt the world owed them a living, and "street" people, salted with today's "progressives": and nostalgic 1960s SDS types. Mainstream Americans were very rarely to be seen.

    I observed this personally in Boston. I had to commute through the Occupy mob and the general attitude of the workers around me -- lower class, middle class, upper class, White, Negro, Hispanic -- was annoyance and anger occasionally mixed with amused contempt. The Occupy mob in Boston imposed enormous inconvenience on residents and workers and significant costs on city government. Unlike the "Tea Party", however. the Occupy movement got a lot of support from Democrat politicians. God knows why. MSM reporting suggests to me that the situation in Boston was duplicated across the country. The Black Lives Matter movement seems to have been similar except that it involved massive amounts of looting, arson, and other violence and was followed by a large uptick in violence in some major cities, the soi disant Ferguson Effect.

    Trump seems to be recapitulating this contrast. Trump's support has risen spontaneously from within this country's working and middle classes because he is articulating their very real concerns; concerns that have been ignored or mocked by this country's self-proclaimed "elites". Trump not only voices these concerns he provides reasonable policy options for addressing them. Once again the reaction has been Soros-funded and organized mobs of brown shirt thugs drawn from the dregs and using violence and intimidation to suppress thjose with whom Soros disagrees.

    By contrast Hillary Rodham Clinton is the champion of the "elite" and Bernie Sanders is just a sideshow to convince the rubes that the Democrat Party really is democratic. Make no mistake. If Hillary seems to be losing the race against Trump the "elites" may employ more extreme measures. I would not be surprised at assassination attempts. I am expecting that Hillary will be booted aside without ceremony if she proves incapable of defeating the peoples' choice, Donald Trump.


    I observed the Occupy Wall Street movement up close in Boston and through media accounts

    To all those who use the expression Deep State knowingly and write as though they know who the .01 per cent are (30,000 in the US) and how they coordinate and operate: please explain what the others are doing about heretic Soros’s high jinks and whether the answer is “nothing” precisely because the idea of the “0.01 (or 0.1 or 1) per cent” measured by wealth is totally useless for explaining how events in the real world come about.
    Pause and consider how many of these select insiders you know or have known and worked with or for. Almost none so well that you can tell us important truths about them, their ideas, preferences and networks? I thought so. So….
    Let us consider what makes sense as a priori likelihoods.
    1. They would take some steps to support the preservation of a capitalist system where the aggregation of private capital was important. Yes, probably true of 90 per cent of them and there wouldn’t be a great number who were aiming to use their wealth and influence to undermine the status quo economic structure. Is even Soros doing that? We may discount the destructive influence of Buddhist and Christian monks who feel guilty about their huge inheritances!
    2. Many are greatly preoccupied by non economic goals such as national honor, spread of their religion, apotheosis of their favourite or merely owned team of X-ballers, breeding new flowers, acquiring masterpieces for the local gallery, and hundreds of other diversions from Deep State matters. Well yes, some of them are mighty potent Israel Firsters…but…er, doesn’t that sometimes conflict just a little bit with other 0.01 per centers’ objectives?
    3. Well what will some try very hard to achieve or maintain and concentrate considerable influence on. Avoiding confiscations sure. But that is hardly a daily concern of most these days – unlike say the 1950s. Taxes. That’s it. And even there compromise is on the table so there can be an acceptable outcome for those with the ability to plan their tax affairs. After all George W. Bush’s inheritance tax giveaway [don't take that as pejorative: I abhor inheritance taxes] was allowed to expire.
    4. Some would point to Quantitative Easing and near zero interest rates. Well it’s true that only 100 year old widows with dementia amongst the 0.01 per cent wouldn’t be able to cope with if not benefit from that. But it isn’t for the 0.01 per cent that it is done – except to the extent that they share the widespread desire for political stability and a working economy. QE is the Fed making up for the lack of fiscal measures (infrastructure especially) that would keep the economy humming along and the masses quiescent.

    So, less fantasised BS from hermits in the sticks – or inner city garrets – please, and more testimony to personally known facts if you think you have something to back your 0.01 per cent nightmares.

    "Trump is, of course, a conscienceless demagogue, serial liar, and nihilist with a belief in nothing save himself."

    There is no argument here, just assertion. There is no argument cuz there is no evidence.
    This article is just more hysteria from the usuals. Trump is an alpha male of the old type, who gets great women, money, and social and now political power.

    This drives the liberal girlie men crazy. Trump has Stood his Ground: Build the Wall , the Mother of all memes, cut immigration drastically, push the invaders out, put Blacks were they should be (implicitly) in the back of the bus, with no more Free Money, Put the jews/ israel on a short leash, which will get shorter after he is elected, despite dancing with the rabbis, get the economy going by embarking on a nationalist economics, help the white people get some good wages, etc, etc.

    This makes him a demagogue. Great. The thing is however that he will Deliver, maybe not immediately, but over time as the Great Counter-Revolution gathers speed. If the grifters, jews, race traitors, international capitalist pigs are not stopped, there will be civil war and working class Whites are well armed.

    Liberals would not be caught dead with a gun. That is good for us White Nationalists and The American White People

    I do tire of the amount of antisemitism I see here on the Unz review. I know a great many Jews (after 35 years of practicing law, how could it be otherwise). While many approve of Israel, in the sense that they are glad it is there; very few are Zionists. They might approve of the defense of Israel, that because they are Americans (a few I have known I would have to rate as communists) and Israel is our only reliable ally in that part of the world. Granted, to my mind, that alliance subsists because of a common enemy.

Republicans denounce Trump because they know that with the Cold War fading into the taillights of History and the Culture War over and done, they have no way to hold their working class base while still serving K Street/Wall Street. The Democrats denounce Trump because they are now the ruling elites of the country and Trump threatens all points of their program, from cosmopolitan globalism to meritocratic technocracy; while exposing their shibboleths to the cleansing sunlight of ruthless mockery.

    The White supremacists never stop praising GOP front-runner Donald Trump for his hatred of Muslims and non-White immigrants – but never mention Donald Trump’s deep association with notorious Jewish pedophile billionaire Jeffrey Edward Epstein, who got off the hook due to his money, and help from the Organized Jewry.

    In 2007, Epstein’s lawyers – Gerald B. Lefcourt, Alan Dershowitz, Jay Lefkowitz, Kenneth Starr, and Roy Black – convinced federal attorneys to enter into a sweeping, and originally secret, non-prosecution agreement, in exchange for guilty pleas to two misdemeanor charges under Florida state law, instead of federal laws that could have provided a life sentence.

    On January 29, 2016, Ken Silverstein claimed at Jewish Vice News that both Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton will never bring in public their close relations with Jeffrey Epstein.

    Originally, Epstein was charged for having sex with 34 minors. Epstein was ultimately sentenced to 18 months in jail on the state charges. He served 13 before being released. His lawyers are still defending him in a Florida Federal Court against 12 of his sex victims.

    The Jewish-controlled media usually portrays Epstein as Friend of Bill Clinton, and even Friend of Prince Andrew – but never mentions British newspaper Jewish tycoon Robert Maxwell, a Mossad spy.

    Israel-First Glenn Beck called Donald Trump, a modern day Adolf Hitler.

  • The term “Limousine Liberal” was first coined back in 1973 by NYC comptroller and NYC mayoralty candidate- the very bumptious Mario Procaccino- to describe the incumbent Mayor, former Republican-turned-Democrat John Lindsay, who was running for re-election. Like the Clintons Lindsay, who was beholden to wealthy Manhattan Upper East and West Side benefactors, surrounded himself with Ivy-educated social engineers who treated people like chess pieces on a chessboard. On weekends he would beat a hasty retreat to his mansion in The Hamptons. Though Procaccino was basically a clown, the phrase stuck because when all was said and done, it was true. Now, over forty years later, the phrase has been accurately bestowed upon the Clintons. This time, the opposition is a more updated (and far more wealthy) version of the late Mr. Procaccino, Donald Trump.

    And as a footnote: with all the noise emanating from both political parties, the abominable United States Tax Code remains untouched. To the phrase “Keep your government hands off my Medicare” I would add “Keep your government hands off my tax deduction.”

Bush's inheritance tax giveaway [don't take that as pejorative: I abhor inheritance taxes] was allowed to expire.
    4. Some would point to Quantitative Easing and near zero interest rates. Well it's true that only 100 year old widows with dementia amongst the 0.01 per cent wouldn't be able to cope with if not benefit from that. But it isn't for the 0.01 per cent that it is done - except to the extent that they share the widespread desire for political stability and a working economy. QE is the Fed making up for the lack of fiscal measures (infrastructure especially) that would keep the economy humming along and the masses quiescent.

    So, less fantasised BS from hermits in the sticks - or inner city garrets - please, and more testimony to personally known facts if you think you have something to back your 0.01 per cent nightmares.

  • Bernie Sanders is a “closet Zionist” Jews – but his “public lies” have even fooled a great-majority of Muslims.

    Dr. Norman Finkelstein who has thrown his support behind Sanders, in a recent interview with Phillip Weiss and Scott Roth, publisher of Mondowiess news website said: “Ask yourself, would American Jews in their majority vote for a Muslim? Never. Impossible. But Muslim Americans are rallying behind Sanders, even as he supports recognition of Israel and its right to live in peace. Why? Because he comes across as a fair and decent guy. That’s so moving, so wonderful, so inspiring. It gives hope that a better world is possible,” Finkelstein said.

  • “Trump is, of course, a conscienceless demagogue, serial liar, and nihilist with a belief in nothing save himself.”

    There is no argument here, just assertion. There is no argument cuz there is no evidence.
    This article is just more hysteria from the usuals. Trump is an alpha male of the old type, who gets great women, money, and social and now political power.

    This drives the liberal girlie men crazy. Trump has Stood his Ground: Build the Wall , the Mother of all memes, cut immigration drastically, push the invaders out, put Blacks were they should be (implicitly) in the back of the bus, with no more Free Money, Put the jews/ israel on a short leash, which will get shorter after he is elected, despite dancing with the rabbis, get the economy going by embarking on a nationalist economics, help the white people get some good wages, etc, etc.

    This makes him a demagogue. Great. The thing is however that he will Deliver, maybe not immediately, but over time as the Great Counter-Revolution gathers speed. If the grifters, jews, race traitors, international capitalist pigs are not stopped, there will be civil war and working class Whites are well armed.

    Liberals would not be caught dead with a gun. That is good for us White Nationalists and The American White People

    I do tire of the amount of antisemitism I see here on the Unz review. I know a great many Jews (after 35 years of practicing law, how could it be otherwise). While many approve of Israel, in the sense that they are glad it is there; very few are Zionists. They might approve of the defense of Israel, that because they are Americans (a few I have known I would have to rate as communists) and Israel is our only reliable ally in that part of the world. Granted, to my mind, that alliance subsists because of a common enemy.

  • a friend of mine in Texas made a very astute observation about the Trump phenomenon. He said: “Trump may well crash the system, but at least we will know its REAL.” Americans have so little trust in their political system they have entered a full revolutionary mindset. Creation from destruction is the order of the day.

    It has crossed my mind: Should the far left (like me) support Trump because there would be a REAL revolution against him in a year.

  • “The past is a foreign country. They do things differently there.” So wrote British playwright Harold Pinter. How apt that seems when one compares life in our own “second Gilded Age” to the way things were done in the original Gilded Age of a century ago. True, there are some striking similarities between the two...
  • Pinter may have written “the past is a foreign country” but if he did so it was as screenwriter for “The Go-Between”, adapted from L P Hartley’s novel which begins with the now-famous aphorism .

  • George Baer was a railroad and coal mining magnate at the turn of the twentieth century. Amid a violent and protracted strike that shut down much of the country’s anthracite coal industry, Baer defied President Teddy Roosevelt’s appeal to arbitrate the issues at stake, saying, “The rights and interests of the laboring man will be...
  • The gilded age comparison is weak. People like the Koch’s do not have an undue influence on the political process when compared to those that really do — like the military industrial complex, the banking-finance-insurance complex, the lawyers guild, and the public education complex. Barely any of what the Koch’s want done gets done politically. The same cannot be said for all the aforementioned parasitic special interests named above, who through government feed off of what remains of the productive parts of the economy. All one need do is list a few of their political successes — 13 and counting years of wars in the middle east, the militarization of local police, the war on drugs and the largest prison population in the world, the wall street bailout, Obama are, and the no child left behind / race to the top / common core education legislation. All of these have resulted in trillions in wasted spending, thousands of lost lives, and trillions of dollars of destruction; and have left U.S. citizens living in a police surveillance state with a rapidly declining status of living. Only a true idealog could get so worked up over the Koch’s.

  • America now can go to war to stop some of these practices or any of these practices by any of the enemies . America can even label the practice as criminal ,anti democratic,and label the country as enemy of the civilization or threat to national security. Obviously the opulence will be shown on the TV , the pictures of the rich as somekind of crony nepotistic despot will be emphasized . The connections among the leadership and the crony exploitative economy will be highlighted . To arouse passion for killings,some weird sexual behaviors with anti LGBT attitudes and tendency to make the opponents will be emphasized .
