The Assassination of Charlie Kirk

Or rather, what one hopes will turn out to be the attempted assassination of Conservative Inc.’s current spokesman.

Shots have been fired at a Charlie Kirk event at Utah Valley University in Orem. Footage from the scene showed eventgoers screaming as shots rang out on Wednesday. The conservative firebrand, 31, was reportedly shot in the neck area at the Turning Point USA event Wednesday, according to bystander accounts.

If the orcs and goblins of Clown World are going after the cuckservatives, it’s probably best for genuine nationalists to stay frosty and stay very far away from public speaking events on college campuses… which is not exactly a problem.

If Charlie dies, this may prove to be the first shot fired in Round Two. It should be noted that the Right didn’t start it. It’s far too soon to know what the eventual impact will be, but it would not be surprising if Charlie Kirk’s death also marks the end of the moderate Right.

UPDATE: The man arrested appears to be a 60-something liberal Boomer. But he may not be the shooter.

UPDATE: MSNBC just speculated the Charlie Kirk shooting could have “been a supporter shooting their gun off in celebration.”

UPDATE: He didn’t make it. Requiescat in pace. Charlie Kirk was 31 years old.

False Flag in Poland

Three drones, supposedly of “Russian origin” were shot down in Poland.

Russia’s defence ministry denied targeting Poland and its foreign ministry accused Warsaw of spreading ‘myths’ to escalate the war in Ukraine.

The military said ‘there had been no plans to target facilities on the territory of Poland’.

The Russian embassy in Warsaw separately told AFP that ‘Poland has failed to provide evidence of the Russian origin of the objects that entered Polish airspace’.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters: ‘We wouldn’t like to comment on this.’

‘This is not for us to do so. It’s a matter for the [Russian] defence ministry.’

Now, what is more likely? Russia violates Polish airspace for no reason with drones that can be easily shot down and do no damage or Ukraine obtains a few Russian drones and flies them across the border in order to give the Europeans more ammunition to demand US military support? Look at where the drones were flying.

If Russia ever decides to attack Poland, it’s not going to be slow drones flying out in the countryside, but hypersonic Kinzhals and Oreshniks hammering military sites. This is an obvious Ukrainian false flag of the sort we’ve been expecting for months.

American Game Theory

Nick Fuentes poses a philosophical exercise.

  • Scenario A: You board a train car and see a black person, you immediately turn and leave— You’re a racist.
  • Scenario B: You sit beside a black person and get stabbed to death— You’re dead.
  • Scenario C: You fight back and subdue your attacker— You’re charged with manslaughter.

This exercise isn’t that hard, because racism isn’t bad, evil, wrong, or a sin. Racism is nothing more or less than the normal preference for the survival of one’s genetic kindred, culture, language, and religion, and opposing their destruction. That’s what it has meant since the term was first coined by General Richard Henry Pratt in 1902. The fact that the term has been twisted and redefined for rhetorical purposes doesn’t change what it actually and observably is.

Racism is even a Biblical and Christian virtue. See 1 Timothy 5:8.

But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.

Anti-racism is literally anti-Christian, as its reliably satanic fruits have proven over and over and over again. Let them call you whatever they want to call you, so long as you do what is right. Which, in this case, is obviously Scenario A. Because they’re going to call you racist no matter what you do, say, or even think to yourself, so long as you and your race of people survive with their identity intact.

“Segregating any class or race of people apart from the rest of the people kills the progress of the segregated people or hinders their growth. Association of races and classes is necessary to destroy racism and classism.”
—Richard Henry Pratt, 1902

The Talk was Necessary

ESR observes that John Derbyshire, who was canceled for pointing out the undeniable, was right all along.

15 years ago, John Derbyshire was canceled for writing an essay titled “The Talk: Nonblack Version”, framed as safety advice for his mixed-race children. In it, he said a number of things about dealing with the presence of Blacks in American society that I think are true, a few things that I think are probably false or exaggerated, and one which has stood out in my mind because I didn’t have the evidentiary basis to have any idea whether it’s true or not.

I’ll quote his point 9 in full:

“A small cohort of blacks—in my experience, around five percent—is ferociously hostile to whites and will go to great lengths to inconvenience or harm us. A much larger cohort of blacks—around half—will go along passively if the five percent take leadership in some event. They will do this out of racial solidarity, the natural willingness of most human beings to be led, and a vague feeling that whites have it coming.”

Now consider “I got that white girl” and the fact that the first public statements of the Black mayor of the city where the murder took place oozed sympathy for the poor mentally ill murderer while not even naming the victim. I think we can safely describe the murderer as ferociously hostile. And the mayor as part of Derbyshire’s 50% subset that willingly enables such hostility. What I’ve wondered about ever since “The Talk” is the size of the “ferociously hostile” cohort.

On general principles I was sure it’s non-zero, because if you go far enough down the left tail of any normal distribution you can find arbitrary levels of craziness; but I had no way of knowing if I can trust Derbyshire’s 5% estimate, and I still don’t know what the size of the “ferociously hostile” cohort is. I do think it’s time to abandon the taboo in polite society on recognizing that it exists, and needs to be contained with violent and punitive measures. It won’t do anymore to bandy excuses like “mentally ill” or “oppressed”. That way only leads to a lot more murdered women.

Anti-racism was always evil and stupid, but it was quality, high-pressure rhetoric that was more than capable of emotionally manipulating weak-minded whites. But the sight of a beautiful young blonde woman being brutally murdered by an unrepentant predatory criminal for no reason other than his racial hatred for white people is even more powerful imagery capable of dissolving the anti-racist rhetoric once and for all.

We Never Went to the Moon

As the Boomers die out, so too does the belief that the Apollo Moon landings were real.

The moon hoax theory was almost unheard of before the spread of Internet, and gained momentum with the development of YouTube, which allowed close inspection of the Apollo footage by anyone interested. Before that, individuals who had serious doubts had little means to share them and make their case convincing. One pioneer was Bill Kaysing, who broke the subject in 1976 with his self-published book We Never Went to the Moon: America’s Thirty Billion Dollar Swindle. He may be called a whistleblower, since he had been working for Rocketdyne, the company that designed and built the Apollo rockets. Then came Ralph René with his NASA Mooned America!, also self published.

Research gained depth and scope, and disbelief became epidemic around the 30th anniversary of Apollo 11, thanks in great part to British cinematographer David Percy, who co-authored the book Dark Moon with Mary Bennett, and directed the 3-hour documentary What Happened on the Moon? An Investigation into Apollo (2000), presented by Ronnie Stronge. It remains to this day greatly valuable for anyone willing to make an informed opinion.

Then there was the much shorter A Funny Thing Happened on the way to the Moon (2001), directed by Bart Sibrel, which brings in valuable insight into the historical context. Sibrel also went around challenging NASA astronauts to swear on the Bible, in front of the camera, that they did walk on the moon, and he compiled these sequences in Astronauts Gone Wild, together with more useful footages of embarrassingly awkward statements made by NASA astronauts who are supposed to have walked on the moon but sound hardly competent and consistent; Alan Bean from Apollo 12 learning from Sibrel that he went through the Van Allen radiation belt is a must-see.

Then, using materials from those films and other sources, came the groundbreaking TV documentary Did we land on the moon? (2001), directed by John Moffet for Fox TV. To my knowledge and judgment, this is still the best introduction to the arguments of the “moon hoax theorists”.

I don’t believe for one second that the Apollo missions went to the Moon and landed on it. It has all of the characteristics of a government-funded fraud, right down to the equivalent of the “training exercise” of the films made by Stanley Kubrick. There are obviously a whole host of flaws in the Official Story, but the one that finally converted me to a Moon Landing Denier was the “oh, we recorded over the telemetry tapes and then we lost them” excuse that was belatedly produced when skeptics wanted to analyze them.

It’s worth noting the background of NASA’s first administrator, T. Keith Glennan.

Born in Enderlin, North Dakota, the son of Richard and Margaret Glennan, he attended the University of Wisconsin–Eau Claire and then earned a degree in electrical engineering from the Sheffield Scientific School of Yale University in 1927, where he was a member of Chi Phi fraternity. Following graduation, he became associated with the newly developed sound motion picture industry, and later became assistant general service superintendent for Electrical Research Products Company, a subsidiary of Western Electric Company. During his career he was studio manager of Paramount Pictures, and Samuel Goldwyn Studios.

NASA was a Hollywood operation all along, from the very beginning. And while Ockham’s Razor is not perfectly reliable, it is a reasonable metric that tends to point toward the truth.

The reason Man has not been back to the Moon is because he never went in the first place.

Monday Night McCarthy

After three quarters of the offense doing less than nothing and scoring -1 points, the Vikings finally managed to put it all together and come back for a 27-24 win against the Bears. McCarthy looked frighteningly bad under pressure throughout the first three quarters, holding the ball too long, getting repeatedly sacked, and even throwing a pick-six to an ex-Viking, until apparently Kevin O’Connell told the OC to start throwing the ball down the field to Justin Jefferson. An excellent 4th quarter meant McCarthy finished with respectable stats: 13 of 20 for 143 yards, 2 TD, 1 INT, 98.5 QBR plus a rushing TD, and in his first game he accomplished something that tended to evade Kurt Cousins in his entire tenure, namely, a big win over a conference rival on national TV.

Other observations:

  • The defense has to improve its pass rush. It had three sacks; it should have had nine.
  • Jordan Mason was a nice pickup at RB for the Vikings. He looked shifty.
  • Caleb Williams looked like a cross between an eel and the young Russell Wilson in the pocket.
  • Justin Jefferson hasn’t missed a beat. When in doubt, throw him the ball. Also, when not in doubt, throw him the ball.
  • The Vikings clearly missed the Hitman in the secondary. And on the blitz.
  • McCarthy’s accuracy was not great and he was holding the ball a little too long when Chicago was obviously blitzing. On the TD pass to Aaron Jones, the ball was two yards short. But he’s got courage, the other players clearly like him, and the potential is definitely there.
  • McCarthy is the first Vikings quarterback to throw multiple touchdown passes in his debut since Fran Tarkenton threw four against the Bears in 1961.

All in all, beating Chicago at Soldier Field on Monday Night is not a bad start for a young QB, especially on a night when the defense wasn’t particularly good. And ruining Ben Johnson’s debut as a head coach is just a bonus.

No Confidence in France

The French government collapsed again for the second time in nine months:

Emmanuel Macron has faced humiliation today as his government lost a confidence vote, plunging France into political chaos after Prime Minister Francois Bayrou warned his peers to not make ‘the same mistake as the British’.

The French parliament voted to bring down the government today over its plans to tame its skyrocketing national debt, with the political crisis only deepening as the President now has the task of finding a fifth Prime Minister in under two years.

François Bayrou only became France’s PM nine months ago, but now, he must resign after 364 of 573 of the government’s deputies voted against the vote of confidence.

The 74-year-old centrist pledged to ‘fight like a dog’ to stay in power, but could not prevent the collapse of his government on Monday night.

As Assembly President Yaël Braun-Pivet announced the result, MPs applauded loudly and Mr Bayrou sat in silence.

‘The National Assembly has not approved the Prime Minister’s general policy statement,’ Ms Braun-Pivet said.

‘The Prime Minister now has to submit the resignation of the government to the President of the republic.’

This will happen on Tuesday, Ms Braun-Pivet added, and the current French administration will immediately dissolve.

The Front National had better not imagine that it can be successful without delivering massive change, and even bigger repatriations, for the French people when it finally comes to power as the very last political alternative.

Liberalism is dead. We’re rapidly approaching the last gasp for any form of democracy in Western Europe.

The End of Anti-Racist Liberalism

In which ESR, a smart, well-educated anti-racist liberal, reluctantly accepts that the racists who fought against the imposition of civil rights in the United States were right all along:

“The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere / The ceremony of innocence is drowned;”

The part of me that was once an idealistic anti-racist liberal marching for civil rights died its final death last night as I watched the video of Irina Zarutska on the Charlotte light rail, being fatally stabbed in the throat from behind by a black savage I refuse to name.

What has finally broken me is, incidents like that aren’t even a surprise anymore. The frequency of brutal, senseless murders by “African-Americans”, both individually and in predatory mobs, has risen exactly as rapidly as social and coercive controls on their behavior have weakened.

Meanwhile, for anybody who’s wondering, American whites still have about the same crime rate as Switzerland. When enforcement of norms disintegrates, only intelligent people with low time preference still act civilized.

As I’ve watched us sliding down the civilizational failure gradient, the question I’ve been increasingly unable to dismiss is this: was the whole ugly apparatus of racial repression – segregation, sundown towns, lynchings -really just senseless hatred? Or was it a rational containment strategy evolved under pressure from living alongside a large, visually distinct population of low-IQ savages?

I think I know the answer now. And I hate knowing it. I preferred my innocence.

It doesn’t do any good to protest that this particular savage was “mentally ill”, whatever you think that means. The mobs that routinely form to beat up and kill whites unwary enough to wander onto their turf aren’t psychotic, unless all Blacks are psychotic.

Yes, yes, I know. If you were to select a population of whites for the same distribution of IQ and time preference as American Blacks, and then coddle them, scholarship out their brightest kids for four generations, and tell them all of their failures are society’s fault, you’d get the same level of pathology and violence in about the time it took you to say “dyscultural and dysgenic”.

That doesn’t matter. We’re not dealing with that hypothetical. We’re dealing with reality. The reality is that we have a predation problem that will only be solved when our actual population of low IQ savages is contained again. Creatures like Irina’s murderer, cognitively unable to participate in civilization, must be subject to either segregation or repression so brutal that they live in fear of it.

I don’t really want to live in the kind of society that can do either these things. But Irina Zarutska’s murder is the seal on my realization that there are no longer soft options, only hard choices.

I’d prefer the one where armed citizens routinely shoot down creatures like that at the time of the attempted crime, or immediately after it. All the alternatives seem far worse.

My only observation would be that the problem isn’t four generations in the making, it’s one that would require about 1,000 years of relentless eugenics to solve given the time to civilization required for the erstwhile savages of Northern Europe.

Focus on the Homeland

A long overdue shift from maintaining the failing Pax Americana to defending the US homeland would be a very welcome change.

Pentagon officials are proposing the department prioritize protecting the homeland and Western Hemisphere, a striking reversal from the military’s yearslong mandate to focus on the threat from China. A draft of the newest National Defense Strategy, which landed on Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s desk last week, places domestic and regional missions above countering adversaries such as Beijing and Moscow, according to three people briefed on early versions of the report.

The move would mark a major shift from recent Democrat and Republican administrations, including President Donald Trump’s first term in office, when he referred to Beijing as America’s greatest rival. And it would likely inflame China hawks in both parties who view the country’s leadership as a danger to U.S. security.

“This is going to be a major shift for the U.S. and its allies on multiple continents,” said one of the people briefed on the draft document. “The old, trusted U.S. promises are being questioned.”

Why the American people should give one quantum of a damn about “old, trusted US promises” given to foreigners when none of the promises given to them have been kept is an obvious question. But Simplicius and others doubt that this “major shift” is real anyhow.

Recall the US even under Trump has dragged its feet for years on initiatives to pull troops from Iraq, Europe, etc. An excuse is always somehow resurrected at the last moment which buys the MIC time and keeps US occupation forces perpetually in places where their presence stirs conflict, exacerbates tensions, and unnecessarily provokes so-called “adversaries” like Russia, China, or Iran. US troops in Syria, for instance—which Trump has likewise failed to pull—have done nothing but facilitate conflict, act as JTACs for Israeli strike corridors, etc.; the claim of being some sort of ‘peacekeepers’ is a sham.

If the troops are brought back from Europe and the Middle East, the borders are manned, and the mass repatriations begin, then perhaps we can take some of these pronouncements seriously. But until then, it’s all just irrelevant noise.
