Posted under Immigration & Political Correctness & TEA Parties
Jim Antle points out that the Left continues to berate the Tea Partiers and other dissenters from the current regime for the morally reprehensible crime of being White. The comment thread is quickly growing so I am reproducing my comment here.
“We see it every time conservatives have any political momentum whatsoever. The idea is that by shouting “racist,” these liberal columnists can make their opponents shut up.”
This is exactly why it is more important for conservatives to call out liberals for their Cultural Marxist PC grandstanding of this type than it is for us to jump on the bandwagon of condemning fellow conservatives for every perceived transgression from right think. In the current political climate, ideological anti-racism is a much bigger problem than is racism.
The Tea Party phenomenon is a perfect example. That Tea Party protestors are overwhelmingly White is a demonstrable fact that is easily observed by all. The desperate attempts by some Tea Partiers to identify Black or Hispanic protestors among their ranks only produce the exceptions that prove the rule. Whether we like it or not, the constituency for limited government is almost entirely White. Not that all or even most Whites favor limited government (I wish), but that those who do are almost all White. This is a fact. This should be a potentially value neutral fact. Like a disproportionate amount of people who consume Tecate beer are Mexican. But it is a fact that the protestors ignore or attempt to wish away at their own peril. (For example, not openly realizing the problem that demographic change brought on by mass immigration [LEGAL and illegal] presents for their movement and goals.)
But the Whiteness of the crowd, again a potentially value neutral observation, is held against it by the likes of King and Rich and the rest of their PC henchmen. Its very Whiteness alone condemns it. Look at all those White people without the magic dust of diversity. They must be up to no good. They must have malevolent intentions. They are probably … GASP … evil racists. But no one would ever condemn a pro-immigration rally for being monolithically Hispanic. Or a civil rights march for being overwhelmingly Black.
This IS the Cultural Marxist double standard. Everyone else gets to play the game of ethnic self interest, but if Whites do it it is the worst of all possible sins. Well screw that. The demonstrably true “charge” that the Tea Partiers are almost all White should be greeted with a big “Yeah. What about it?” That the constituency for limited government and preserving the vision of the Founders is White should mean nothing more than that Blacks and Hispanics need to drop their support for the nanny state and get on board limited government with us White folk.

It obviously is wrong for one race to wish to do physical harm to another race. And it is obviously impolite for one race to use unpleasant racial epithets toward another race.
But this is not what is usually meant by “racism.” More often than not, “racism” is used to attack ethnocentrism – the desire of people to be with others of their own kind. This is odd, considering that ethnocentrism is completely natural and probably sociobiological (cf. kin selection theory, ethnic nepotism, etc.). And nearly every group in the world – every group except one – is openly ethnocentric. Only one group has been bullied into forsaking this natural desire — and ironically it is this one very group* that is most often accused of being “racist.”
Thus it’s no coincidence that Cultural Marxists in the 1930s largely popularized the term “racism” as a means to undermine the West.

Screw that! You got that right.
I ‘m not sure if this is what you meant in your last paragraph but I just don’t ever see large numbers of blacks or Hispanics laying down their ethnic unity. It kills me how many on the right will constantly trot out the latest black conservative in an effort to show how race doesn’t matter. The proof that ideology over race is real yet time and time again they show their true colors(no pun intended). From Colin ‘I Love Obama’ Powell & JC ‘Black radio & TV stations’ Watts to “Hip Hop” Steele and Condi ‘the stain of slavery’ Rice. While I have no doubt there are a select few. Perhaps someone like Thomas Sowell or Clarence Thomas the fact is race is more than just a skin color. Always has been and probably always will be.
If White’s don’t quite running away from race we will eventually find ourselves disenfranchised and worse from the country that our Forefathers sacrificed a great deal to pass on to us their posterity. Successive generations, maybe even the next generation are going to find themselves in a hostile environment all because most Whites today are brainwashed deracinated cowards who seem to be willing to accept a slow genocidal push. The right has become every bit as bad as the left although more recently there does seem to be some new life. I do tire though of this seemingly ceaseless tit for tat of many on the right trying to outdo the left on who is the most racist all the while ignoring the elephant in the room i.e. the Black Caucus, LaRaza and all the other race political and lobbying groups. These race political groups are ever gaining more and more power and influence particularly the Hispanics. I sit and wonder what these borg whites think will happen eventually? Maybe they don’t think at all but do they really believe that at some point these groups are going to just up and disband? Just one day say OK it’s all good now?
Race issues are old as man himself. Whites didn’t invent them nor do we have any unique claim on them. Demographics are reality however and right now the reality of whites is going down the tubes if we don’t band together politically and quit running away from race.

The Reality is that the black vs white median IQ differential (85 vs 100) will ALWAYS push blacks to the lower end of the economic ladder in any modern economy. Thus blacks will ALWAYS be the foot soldiers of socialism. For them there is nothing to lose in Statism and much to gain.
