Since this week is a show about answering questions, here are a few items I did not have time to address in the show. A few people have asked about Ann Coulter linking to a post the other day. They wanted to know how much traffic it generated. The answer is not very much. Twitter is not much a traffic generator, even with big accounts like Coulter, as people on that platform don’t follow links. It’s why I have not bothered to get back on the platform. It’s just another silo on the internet.
The number one source of traffic here is the search engine. I can see the URL that brings people to me and it is either a topic I cover or something with the phrase “Z Blog” in it. That I take to be word of mouth. Someone mentions to a friend that they read the site and that friend then googles the term. After that, it is sites like Maggie’s Farm, WRSA and the Woodpile. The Feral Irishman is another example of the type of site that moves a lot of people along to other sites.
A few people have asked about why their comments end up in moderation. This is something I’ve been meaning to explain for a while. The spam filter does a great job of blocking the obvious stuff. Questionable items end up in moderation. What makes a comment questionable? Epithets, vulgar language and too many links. If you avoid using crude language and don’t load up the comment with a million links, then it goes right through, so avoid bad language.
I’ve gotten a few queries about the readability of the site on mobile devices. I just added a mobile option to the site, so let me know how it looks. The text should be heavier and slightly larger. I can also increase the mobile font size, but you can also zoom on your mobile to do the same thing. The thing with mobile devices is they are all different and there is no magic way to make the site just right for all of them. Well, there may be a way, but I’m not investing the time to do it.
This week I have the usual variety of items in the now standard format. Spreaker has the full show. I am up on Google Play now, so the Android commies can take me along when out disrespecting the country. I am on iTunes, which means the Apple Nazis can listen to me on their Hitler phones. The anarchists can catch me on iHeart Radio. YouTube also has the full podcast. Of course, there is a download link below.
Support the media that supports you. While all of us toiling in the fields of dissident media are motivated by a sense of duty, having a place to sleep and food on the table still requires money. Five bucks a month is not a lot to ask. Or, you can send money to me at: Z Media LLC P.O. Box 432 Cockeysville, MD 21030-0432. I now have a PayPal setup for those who prefer that method to donate.

Regarding the Holocaust, it’s enough for us to say it’s entirely irrelevant to modern life and anyone who raises the issue outside of academic history is (((suspect))), because only that Tribe and its lackeys have any need or care to cudgel modrens with this ancient mythology. If they push the issue, remind them many other millions of people died in that war, rarely in pleasant fashion. Don’t get in the weeds with them about details – just keep your frame by knowing the agenda of the people still trying to flay White people with this 70-year old canard. Remind yourself… Read more »
Exile, yes I’d say memory of the event is/has perhaps caused more damage than good at this late date. My general take has always been as an admonishment of the base nature of man (never specifically Germans) and what we are capable of when we lose our moral compass. But then I’m a Northern European first generation American.
I think honking about the holocaust only serves the interests of anti-Semites at this point. My advice to the Jews would be to close the books on that stuff and the endless Nazi references, but no one takes my advice, no matter how sound.
The fact that they won’t close those books is what keeps me counter-Semitic. If and when the 3% stop acting like they have right to tell the 97% what to do b/c Chosen, Shoah, IQ or whatever, I’ll be glad to forget about them.
I agree – honking on on about the holocaust serves the opposite of the interests of whoever does it. “Deniers” just sound stupid when they do it as there is too much evidence. I suppose a talented researcher could do some work and dispute the 6 million number – and exactly nobody would thank him for it.
David Cole’s entirely conservative and reasonable questioning of the scale/numbers, not the event itself, made him the second-most ostracized Jew in America, right behind Bernie Madoff.
“Deniers” just sound stupid when they do it as there is too much evidence
What evidence would that be?
Come on. I personally knew WWII Vets who were there when the camps were liberated. They were small-town working guys with no reason to lie about what they saw. Doesn’t prove the claimed numbers, but ugly stuff was going on.
I personally knew WWII Vets who were there when the camps were liberated.
Except that US troops did not liberate a single death camp.
Holocaust is not about concentration camps – slave labor camps – it’s about whether people (or rather Jews; dead goys do not count as Holocaust victims) were stuffed wholesale into gas chambers.
Buchenwald by the Americans. Bergen-Belsen by the British. Dachau by the Americans. The Soviets liberated most of the camps. These were terrible places, but probably not as brutal as Andersonville, which is considered one of the worst prisoner of war camps in modern history.
War is a monstrous business.
Buchenwald by the Americans. Bergen-Belsen by the British. Dachau by the Americans.
None of those were “death camps” – no gas chambers.
I’ve been to Manzanar. If we’d lost the war, and Yoshi had been the one opening the gates of that camp, it would have looked exactly like Dachau did.
When you bomb supply lines, people starve. Fancy that!
Now, now, Don’t go confusing the good folks with the truth.
Especially when genocide is part of the war plan.
Now be a good goy and give away two millennia of your cultural inheritance!!!
THis is why though we really really need one, people on the Actual Right (Dissident and others) are rather reluctant to start ACW 2
We know what the results will be.
@drake – “Come on. I personally knew WWII Vets who were there when the camps were liberated. They were small-town working guys with no reason to lie about what they saw. Doesn’t prove the claimed numbers, but ugly stuff was going on.”
Outside of the real fringe antisemites and outright deniers, does anyone seriously dispute the reports of the infantryman who initially encountered the camps? Salt-of-the-earth types are often put forth as a sort of proof of purity. It’s not done disingenuously, but it still left-handedly shits on them anyway because it assumes they’re wrong by intended deception.
I don’t dispute that prisoners in German camps were in terrible shape. Since the Germans were losing the war, even the German soldiers were in terrible shape.
There were no camps that conducted industrial mass murder. David Cole, the revisionist J3w, supports this point, although he thinks certain German commanders engaged in mass murder on military campaigns in Poland. Such campaigns are hardly unusual in the history of warfare.
>>>Come on. I personally knew WWII Vets who were there when the camps were liberated. They were small-town working guys with no reason to lie about what they saw. Doesn’t prove the claimed numbers, but ugly stuff was going on.”<<<
It proves detention camps existed; and that by the end of the war they could not be re-supplied.
Again, if Hideki and Junichiro had been bombing California, Manzanar would have looked the same as Dachau.
Does anyone seriously dispute the reports of the infantryman who initially encountered the camps?
Nobody dispute that the Germans had concentration camps – camps were people were imprisoned without trial and used as slave labor.
But that’s not what Holocaust Denial is about, it’s about whether the Germans had “death factories” where they systematically murdered millions of people on a production line basis.
At some point you have to ask yourself if they are simply incapable of taking your advice, and if so, why.
My response now is, “Oh yeah, I’ve heard of it. I think they made a movie or documentary about it once. Can’t remember, but it was a long time ago overseas somewhere.”
Don’t mind sounding doltish to strangers. Just dont want to hear about it in breathless tones anymore.
That’s the rub. For Jews, this is part of their story, the story of their people. It is incredibly important to them. But it has nothing to do with us and so we’re like, god, can you shut about it already!
I saw a TV program many years ago featuring the old neo-con Elliot Abrams. The show wasn’t really about pointless foreign wars but rather the future of Judaism . Now I’m a bit philo-Semitic myself , although not a Jew (some of my best friends, however…) I continued to watch. One of the things he mentioned has stayed with me all these years – he said that Holocaust remembrance is a substitute religion for way too many Jews, instead of actually being Jewish, were obsessed with the holocaust, which in his opinion and mine I guess, is a really unhealthy… Read more »
“Exile, yes I’d say memory of the event ”
“Exile, yes I’d say fantasies of the event ”
There, fixed that for you.
“Millions more women and children than that died at Soviet hands during the Holodomor, but Christians aren’t constantly bitching about that, right? So give it a rest Schlomo and keep packing for the trip home to Israel.”
The thing that really annoys me about holocaustianity is that I am an American living in America where they have erected a bunch of holocaustinatiy “museums” which have absolutely nothing to do with our people. We were not the ones doing it and it wasn’t being done to us. Our only involvement in it was that we were at war with the people doing it. We defeated them and helped the Soviets defeat them, we took all these Soviet reject Jews into America after the war and how do they repay us? By forcing their secular religion on us. They… Read more »
I hear you on that when we went to the library here in our small town because our homeschooled daughter wanted to do a book report on the great depression because her great grandparents lived through it and we couldn’t find more than two books on it but they had a whole shelf for the Holocaust it pissed me right off…Whites have been brainwashed to be suicidal and not have any pride for who they are, what they have accomplished, and the history they have made…Thing is if we remain scattered we will never be able to rectify that and… Read more »
The thing is the new ascendant peoples do not care one iota about the Jews or their Holocaust. Hispanics will push them out when they have the numbers along with the rest of us. That will not be too much longer.
Hispanics and other people of color will no doubt be as successful at removing jews from their world as white people have been. Jews are masters at holding power. Unless there’s some kind of forced expulsion, there’s no getting them out of our business.
I think you might be right Ursula. The ascendency lacks the manufactured guilt by association and are free to act as they please. They may not however, be able to resist manipulation because of a lack of impulse control to bribery and lower IQ to recognize the manipulation.
Hispanics here in CA are showing the same political passivity that keeps them in the favelas in their own countires. Despite huge numbers, their highest officeholder is the California Attorney General. Z noted this in his prior podcast on the PoC Circus party some months back. Castizos rule Brazil, Mexico and many other Hispanic nations, and the very term Hispanic pays homage to these largely hereditary aristocrats’ Conquistador heritage (along with the very language of these countries). The history of the New World has been one of minority rule over passive masses since they wetbacked and Marielito’d their way from… Read more »
At this point, with so much of the populations of Mexico and Central America now inhabiting the U.S., why the heck doesn’t the U.S. approach these countries and say, “Since so many of you already are here in the U.S., let’s just join all our lands together,” take them over and let us white people move to these places and develop them and make them prosperous. Instead, the slackers are taking over the U.S. and we all get poorer and less civilized.
If they push the issue, remind them many other millions of people died in that war, rarely in pleasant fashion.
I’m privileged in that regard. My (Danish) grandfather was conscripted for 18 months of forced labor by the Nazis, so I simply ask how much money I’d be due, if my grandfather were a Jew. (I strongly suspect that’s what got me banned from Breitbart.)
I wonder how they’re going to keep the Holocaust “relevant” – when they run out of 95 year old Lithuanian ex-camp guards to trot out in front of the cameras and kick out of the country? I agree – when somebody starts whining about the Holocaust, remind them that many millions of people died in that war – and included a whole bunch of non-Jews who also died in concentration camps. I usually also throw in: ” and it wasn’t only the Nazis – the Bolsheviks killed people off by the tens of millions – and from what I’ve seen… Read more »
Yeah, Holocaust, terrible thing. But going on 80 years ago. Could we talk about something more relevant?
Like, why can’t the country control its borders? Why is there so much outcry when it’s tried?
And what has happened to morality…we can’t even protect young kids from exposure to homosexuality and transsexuality in schools and libraries. Why is that?
And who is pushing this stuff?
Like someone said, “Conservatives have not even conserved the ladies restroom.”
It’s easy to imagine a Hollow Cost story about how the Nat-zees were performing twisted experiments on Jewish children, like trying to change their biological sex with cross dressing, hormone replacement, and carving up their junk—thirty years ago. Now it’s Jews in the forefront of promoting just that (again).
I believe the holocaust was absolutely real, ie that it was pretty much as described, a systematic, diabolical attempt to wipe ppl off the face of the earth b/c they were Jewish.
What I dont believe is that it was unique, unfortunately. Hitler wanted to kill all sorts of people. Islamics have wiped many people out. I would like to avoid holocausts, against any people, of whatever color, in the future. Im not a fan of slaughter.
Off topic: TomA, you frequently comment on the dysgenic effect of affluence. In a youtube video, “Jared Taylor: The Banned Interview,” Jared Taylor quotes the Roman satirist Juvenal, “Luxury is more ruthless than war.” I thought you might like that quote.
Vox Day links to you as a source. He has no beef with you from what I can tell. His skepticism of evolution is more technical than anything else (he is skeptical of the maths). He has as much disdain for creationists as anyone else. But I do agree that race realism and now gender realism is a major point of entry for dissident right wing politics. If you ever want to smoke out a cuck, just talk about race in their presence. They cannot help themselves from clucking on and on about the evils of racism. VD is very… Read more »
Well, that’s the story today. Vox goes through spasms where he focuses obsessively on a hate-target, then eventually he gets it out of his system and can relax and regard the target as a normal human being, taking the good and leaving the bad. Z-man was such a target last year, complete with scornful nicknames and blanket condemnation. Now he’s OK. The same thing has happened to Ethan van Sciver, Jordan Peterson and other people I don’t know who date back to Gamergate and sci-fi fiction award scandals.
Comments look MUCH better on iPhone. Thanks, Z!
Letter #5 struck a real chord w me. I do wonder about all the ‘good’ non-whites. A post on this at some point would be great. Surprised Z is against the death penalty. True, the government can hardly do anything right. But I think the death penalty could save lives and I think its absence is a symptom of testosterone drop in society, a sign of feminization. If the death penalty has to go (it mostly has, even Texas takes a decade from sentence to execution, it’s just incredible. It should be done as it were in Britain before WW2;… Read more »
Outlawing would be a good idea. I also approve of the punishment of exile for citizens who commit political crimes – expulsion from the country, with a penalty of death should they return. I would consider that an acceptable punishment for people like the Obamas and Clintons, since there’s too much squeamishness and fear of slave riots if they were executed for treason. Let them wander the world like Flying Dutchmen.
here’s the Mamas & the Pepes song TOO STEAMY for Zman’s older listeners

Thank you, I was wondering about that haha
Edit: that was NOT ‘steamy’. But, it was fun 🙂
Great show today!
Re: evolution, on a small scale the process is observable but on a macro level, the theory seems to have major holes, particularly the idea that complex structures like the eye evolve by incremental random mutaton parsed by natural selection. I think we’re at the same level of understanding with evolution that we had with pre-Newtonian physics – we can observe the process and make certain predictions and deductions but we don’t really understand the mechanisms at work yet. Darwinians prefer to straw-man their opposition as hard seven-day Creationists rather than addressing the scientific critiques. Darwinism has become a religious… Read more »

Richard Dawkins, from when he wasn’t an obnoxious twat:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2X1iwLqM2t0
See Coulter’s “Godless” & Vox Day (when I’m not ripping on him in this thread) for some Dawkins refutation. On a more sciencey-plane, check out “Darwin’s Black Box” by Michael Behe. I’m a fan of more science, less faith on scientific theories and Dawkins is one of the guys who reacts like a fedayeen when Darwin-skepticism rears its blasphemous head. Until we have a deeper understanding, we’d be better off if we left the why/how of Darwin vs. anti-Darwin for college students and simply taught the what, when and where of biology in public high schools.
I’ve read “Godless”, which has got nothing to do with darwinism (Queen Ann is too smart to mess with science) and Vox, while making interesting points from time to time, is a crackpot who thinks the moon landings never happened and is endowed with a suspiciously big nose.
But it’s not about Dawkins as a person, it’s about the arguments he lucidly and persuasively makes in the video, explaining how an eye could evolve gradually.
who thinks the moon landings never happened No, that’s not what he thinks. He’s actually been quite careful about never saying that. What he has said is that he thinks the government “official story” has so often been proven wrong or fabricated that he’d be surprised of the official moonlanding story was 100% truthful. That can mean anything from “Yes, they landed on the moon but covered up mission-threatening mistakes” on up. He refers to a number of known cases of the government deceiving the public. I can rattle off a bunch: Gulf of Tonkin, sinking of the Lusitania, USS… Read more »
Gulf of Tonkin, sinking of the Lusitania, USS Liberty incident, Benghazi, Fast and Furious, Russian Collusion None of those have got anything to do with the Apollo program, and is of an entirely different scale of deception than the purported moon hoax, which would have involved several hundred thousand people. That video of Dawkins is only persuasive to people who accept what he says at face value. You don’t have to take anything he says at face value, that’s the beauty of it. He argues entirely from first principles and demonstrates every point he makes with a simple experimental setup… Read more »

They’re not intended to. They’re examples of official government versions of events not being the whole story.

If you can’t see all the gaps in what Dawkins is demonstrating, it would take me weeks to explain it to you.

As I say above about Owen Benjamin, “the guy just seems like a crazy moron to me.” That was about the most painful 9 minutes ever. Benjamin doesn’t even know what he doesn’t know.
I think OB is actually an Andy Kaufman mocking of the people agreeing with him.
That would be meta hilarious.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Everything’s a psyop.
“In its 11 strokes, the symbol encapsulates what it’s like to be an individual on the Internet. With raised arms and a half-turned smile, it exudes the melancholia, the malaise, the acceptance, and (finally) the embrace of knowing that something’s wrong on the Internet and you can’t do anything about it.”

I have never watched OB. I do not want to seem to be putting words in others mouths. But, it seems to me the fist man, Dan Petit, uses the term technology when infrastructure would be more appropriate. We no longer have the Saturn 5 rockets or a supply of lunar landers or command modules that could reach the moon. It would surely take time, as he said, to build suitable vehicles again and that would entail untold billions of dollars. Armstrong said that the computers used were ancient. At least that is what I thought he meant. We did,… Read more »

Vox Day also openly associates with Cernovitch. I think that’s why I stopped reading him.
Queen Ann disagrees:
From http://www.anncoulter.com/columns/2011-08-24.html
“THE FLASH MOB METHOD OF SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY
August 24, 2011”
Roughly one-third of my 2006 No. 1 New York Times bestseller,Godless: The Church of Liberalism, is an attack on liberals’ creation myth, Darwinian evolution. I presented the arguments of all the luminaries in the field, from the retarded Richard Dawkins to the brilliant Francis Crick, and disputed them.
Queen Ann disagrees
I stand corrected.
Vox isn’t White by his own admission, he’s an Amerind. He’s also a Western Christian Civilizationist and an Omninationalist (i.e nearly all nationalism is good)
That said he does edge too close to crackpottery and pardon my use of Bill Maher here religulous thinking.
This is fine. The .Alt Christians and I’m lumping the anti abortion types here for all their flaws and frankly stupid views in some areas are energetic and willing to act even at a heavy personal cost
If the rest of the actual Right were so endowed we’d have many fewer problems
Have worked within the NY system for years in local elections. The Conservative Party came about as a reaction to Rockefeller Republicans–remember they actually elected Jim Buckley to the Senate back in the 70s. But in the modern construct these parties are allowed to maintain ballot lines so long as they hit certain vote thresholds in elections. And what they’ve ended up as is a distinct group you have to negotiate with on platform to gain their endorsement and line–along with getting petitions signed. It serves as an engagement mechanism. On the leftist side we have the “Working Families Party”… Read more »
Good call on the Lib’s, which is why I gave up on them as I became older and wiser. At least here where I live, the Lib’s are a non-entity. Few decades ago, they could turn out 5% or so of the vote for their candidates, now they are less than 1% registrations and rarely field a candidate. I switched to the top party affiliation, IND, 🙂 —which allows (here anyway) for me to declare and vote in whatever primary I desire. Of course, the whole scam is to keep one believing in the “game” and I am debating seriously… Read more »
For now I think we’re better off destroying the GOP and leaving the Democrats to stand alone. I’ll again cite the Caesarism post Z made recently. I think we’ll see more Imperial disruption and internal rot from a one-party system rather than a fake two-party system. The Empire thrived during the Cold War because of the same “lesser of two evils” dynamic we see in American politics. We need to follow Georgi Arbatov’s example and take the Democrats’ enemy away from them. Plus the GOP weasels deserve it and it’s fun.
Looks like the Democrats are going to give you a run for your money then. While you’re out destroying the Republicans – the Democrats are stabbing each other in the chest over and over again. There was a time when I believed in accelerationism, and I was usually pretty good at predicting what was going to happen a year or two out. Now that the rot has accelerated beyond my ability to keep up and comprehend – I really don’t know what is going to happen. It does appear though that Trump is trying to make Sleepy Joe out as… Read more »
We’re going to be stuck with a one-party Dem state sooner or later due to demographics among kids already here that no one will convince Beckys to deport, much less the new Brown Wavers.

Z,
Do you remember the title of your article about the ancient Greek play where women run a town? I have looked and looked and cannot find it again. The name of the play or its author would be equally good.

The point about Washington DC corrupting people on our side is an important point and needs more attention. Whether it be congressmen, Supreme Court justices, or even bureaucrats, it happens. If I were president, I’d sign an executive order moving almost all federal agencies out of the capital and break up the agencies into smaller units and put them in dying Rust Belt towns. The five richest counties (and over half of the top 20) in the country surround DC. These is a HUGE problem. The country was much better off before the DC cocktail party circuit became THE thing.
It reminds me of the Roman emperors not wanting to be in Rome.
It’s why the Brazilians built Brasilia in the middle of nowhere.
The Congress should be moved to a different state (and not the State Capital) every four years: we can come back and review the arrangement after everybody’s had a shot. The next state to be selected by lottery from those yet to be selected drawn on the previous Novembers election day.
All Federal employees should be time-limited to ten years- No more Taxpayer money after that,
It would be a gross micharacterization to suggest Vox Day is anti-science or rejects the reality of genetic differences. It would probably be best for Zman to avoid criticizing Vox about evolution, because Vox is much more well-read on the science. If Vox isn’t dissident right, virtually nobody is.
Vox has very little math or science. And Vox is not dissident right. Neither of those statements are debatable.
Please forward me the official dissident right membership roster and membership requirements doc. I’m curious what authority put them together.
Vox has done a number of Darkstreams and blog posts about the mathematics of evolution. Unless you want to actually dive into refuting him, I reiterate my suggestion to just refrain from criticism. Blanket statements of “Nuh uh! You’re wrong!” aren’t terribly persuasive.
John Derbyshire coined the term over twenty years ago, I’ve covered it in detail for close to a decade now. Words have meaning. “To be in the dissident right is to be in dissent from the prevailing orthodoxy on the human condition. Race is real, Ethnicity is real. Sex is real. Evolution is real. Genetics are real. These are all real things.”
Sorry, thems the rules.
As far as the math of evolution, dachshunds exist.
I doubt Vox Day would disagree with you on any of the above statements, except the “evolution is real” one, and I won’t speak for him more on that as it’s getting pretty far into the weeds. His reasons are published and stand on their own. I guess I’m not in the dissident right either, despite being a fan and periodic financial supporter of Derb for going on 20 years. My sense of Derbyshire’s general personality and ideology over many years of listening to him is that people of good will can have honest disagreements about technical issues without banishing… Read more »
Entryism is always a problem in outsider movements. The best way to prevent that is to have a clear set of definitions that are ruthlessly enforced. Christian Nationalists can make no exceptions on the theological aspects of their thing. Otherwise, they will quickly become just another co-opted group that means nothing.
The dissident right has to do the same.
I can respect that. OK!
I agree with you here. The Tea Party learned this to their dismay Problem is without actual leaders it’s not that easy. No one is following the Derb and as sad as it is a fair amount of people on our side don’t even know who he is. Also this movement such as it is is poor at this kind of thing. We can’t even keep Spencer, the Libertarians and “Liberty Movement” types out much less more virulent types.

Things have changed .At the time Derbyshire coined the term Dissident Right , there was no .Alt Right , little to no NrX and basically no Internet Dissident Community either. In any case the Derb can no more lay claim to the term than Spencer can the term .Alt Right .

Ted Beale is Dis-Right adjacent, more Alt-Lite, has written a lot of good and useful stuff, but he’s a CivNat and a libertarian at heart. The butt-hurt and personal offense you’re displaying about someone mildly criticizing Beale demonstrates the worst trait he shares with his fans. He’s positively feminine in his zeal for extremetly-online interpersonal feuds and gossip. Let Z be Z and Beale be Vox. We need them both, and Z’s being more manly about trying to stay above the fray.
I am not overly concerned with someone who tries to paint anyone who voices a disagreement as “butt-hurt.” It’s juvenile. I am also not personally offended. Zman and I had our back and forth and I accept his final statement. I understand where he stands and that’s good enough for me.

I think you should do further research. Vox is not a creationist and his objection to evolution is because of problems he sees in the math. Vox is educated in statistics.

Most of those guys were insulted that an outsider tried to come in and define their thing. I think a fair reading of Day and his followers is they are Christian Nationalists. They arrive at their positions from a bespoke Christian starting point. That’s a tradition with some history and it is perfectly respectable. Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson, Howard Phillips, who I mentioned in the show, were all Christian… Read more »
While I would never accuse Kessler of being competent, it was Spencer who inserted himself into the UTR rally (which was always a bad idea) because Kessler refused to be photographed doing Hitler salutes. Kessler has the phone records to prove this because he is involved in the lawsuit and these phone records were subpoenad. It was Spencer who invited the usual suspects (Duke, the Klan, TWP etc) which ended turning UTR into the clown-car colossal screw-up that it was. He inherited NPI and ran it into the ground and got all of the donors doxed. Then he had the… Read more »
On a personal level, I like Spencer. Most people like him, as he is a very likable guy. That said, in a serious movement, he would not be in a position of prominence. If the alt-right was the IRA, he would have disappeared into a bog a long time ago.
Amen. He’s charismatic – but I would trust Richard Spencer as far as I could throw Matt Forney. I’m not the first to point this out, but the man is a near-perfect reverse barometer of what is to be done. Ignore the vitriol and check this timeline: https://affirmativeright.blogspot.com/2018/06/richard-spencer-is-death.html The guys at Affirmative Right are admittedly chapped, but that timeline is accurate. And this was the guy that was going to lead a decades-long struggle for self-determination? It’s nothing personal, but the best thing for it is to wrap the Charlottesville fiasco around his neck and then go full Emmett Till… Read more »
I have a similar view of Spencer that Derb seems to have from what I’ve read – too immature, too ambitious – hardly uncommon among smart young White guys. He seems to be learning as he gets older. He wanted to be a leader more than he wanted a specific ideology to succeed long term. I hope he continues to evolve into a useful member of White identity and away from the shooting-star mentality fame whore of the past.
I’m in the Darwin’s-missing-something camp adjacent to Beale on evolution, but agree with Z on Beale’s politics and his ambivalent-at-best relationship with the Alt-RIght and Dis-Right.
No Enemies on the Right should be the rule with few exceptions, and I will righteously criticize Beale on having a feminine-libertarian tendency to pick nits and undermine solidarity with things like the 16 points. That said, Beale’s a net positive if you ignore this, which I generally manage to do. He’s on the White team.
His side the Hard Right or Deus Vult crowd if you like are stuck on Christianity as a social baseline and have no plan to build a society if modernity rejects it
This seems their biggest flaw overall.
When your worldview is derived from some ancient hebrew text and you believe that a functional civilization requires other follow this text , it can cloud your judgement
That aside Beale and his people for the most part are very much on our side.
They are good men just a bit blinkered.
I think for most of the factions on the right, almost everyone is an outsider. Sometimes I feel like I’m watching that scene in Life of Brian where all the various Judean Peoples’ groups are bickering. For some of us, there is probably some confusion between the standard English usage of “dissident right” (“Well, I’m a dissident, and I’m on the right …”) and the movement usage Dissident Right (“I hereby swear allegiance to the Derbyshire Catechism of the Dissident Right.”) I guess I won’t be holding office in the latter, but I still mostly agree and like listening to… Read more »
The dissident right writers and posters should leave each other alone and let them do their thing. Z Man for the most part does a good job at that. Who really should care if we consider Vox Day dissident right or not? Men like Spencer are terrible at keeping their nose in their own tent along with leading us into a Pickett’s Charge. Spencer is a good thinker on his feet and he can hold up well in a debate with our enemies if given the chance but Spencer will be Spencer and if he lets himself be the new… Read more »
@thezman. I live in the Cesspit by the bay, CA. And here, the main 3 places to avoid if your lightly complected are: Bay View, Hunters Point and the Tenderloin. Here’s a link to a place called “Road Snacks.” With an artical intitled: “These Are The 10 Worst Baltimore Neighborhoods For 2019.” https://www.roadsnacks.net/these-are-the-10-worst-baltimore-neighborhoods/
Used to have stay in Baltimore one week each summer for a sports camp with one of my kids. We were quartered up at the old USF&G training center–which was in one of those nice leafy suburbs–but would take the light rail into town for Orioles games. That and driving around reminded me of my tour of duty in Detroit. Neighborhoods turn fast–within a block or two. And unlike the NYC and Philly ghettos–but like Detroit–there seem to be swaths that are both really bad and only partially inhabited. You could simply disappear in those places and no one would… Read more »
I’ve been looking forward to hearing more of your take on Baltimore in light of this current brouhaha. Ha ha ha.
@thezman. You say this Howard Phillips fellow was instrumental in mobilizing the Evangelical Christians into a political force. Personaly I had never heard of the guy. Back in those days my life was all about maximum work, maximum booze and maximum nookie. But I can tell what I think now. It was a huge mistake to continue trying the old tactics of getting the churches deeply involved in politics.This type of thing has been happing for far too long. It weakens the moral standing of the church as an institution unsoiled by the world. Someone in the early days of… Read more »
I like the letter shows. Firstly, the segments are just long enough to approximate your enjoyable daily blog posts. Secondly, (obviously you pick the letters but) having the readers ask questions of you allows you to work outside of the having to generate topics yourself framework. Well done.
I voted for Ross Perot because I absolutely hated HW Bush. I didn’t expect Perot to win and I was living in California at the time so it didn’t really matter. I don’t think Bush was winning even without Perot – you can’t knife people in the back that blatantly and expect loyalty.
Yeah, I wonder if the same fate awaits Trump. he’s feeling pretty cocky at the moment, but the fact remains, he has finked on a lot of his promises.
If Trump was Prime Minister of Israeli, he’d be their most accomplished leader since Ben Gurion.
I kind of doubt it. Trump isn’t really our guy but he does often pick the right fights and say the right things. And he has a super-power for making cucks and commies drop their masks. It’s not like working-class whites are going to reject him in favor of Kamala Harris or some other leftist who openly hates them. (Unlike Bill Clinton who they liked)
Bush was just an obvious snake who never meant a word he said while pretending to be a conservative. He was fully exposed the moment he took control.
Trump has lost a lot of support from 2A people. I have three friends who are gun owners and are active in the 2A community. They say they are not going to vote anymore.
They tell me that they are tired of being lied to and made fools of. The gun blogs seem to show that attitude is prevalent. One of the big gun sites recently showed Trump with about a 50% approval rate on the site. This is a poll from people who were in the 90 plus range of support in November 2016.
I concur. Trump has been terrible on the gun issue. https://thezman.com/wordpress/?p=13049
Trump seems to be banking on the Democrats nominating a nut that scares whites into voting for him again. He better hope Biden drops dead before next year.
Tulsi’s in bed with you on that score… Her debate performance suggests she’s angling for VP – a much more palatable color-cuck option to Biden’s allegedly-spurned overtures to Stacey Abrams, with Tulsi being just non-White enough to tick the box while not scaring GoodWhites. Even if Biden didn’t Woodrow Wilson in his first term and give her the Big Girl Chair, he’d be very unlikely to make it to 2028. If he RBD’d his way through, she’d still be the Annointed One for 2028, and she’s very young. Maybe I’m just trying to rationalize her BDS cuck, but if I… Read more »
Yeah, although anything could happen between now and voting day, my impression today is lots of non-voting people who turned out in 2016 to vote for Trump on the chance that he’s the real deal have seen that he, too, is ultimately just another controlled puppet and are either going to stay home or vote for the wackiest liberals they can so as to accelerate matters. Not so confident Trump’s got a second term coming, impossible as that may seem when looking at his loser opponents.
Not voting for Trump could be a mistake for 2A people. Who do they want making appointments to the Supreme Court? DC vs. Heller was 5-4. Two of the four dissenters are still on the SC. The other two were replaced by justices just as bad. So, practically speaking, it would take one of five justices to flip the other way to have a Supreme Court that would recognize no Constitutional limits to gun control by the federal govt.
It took moving to Europe for me to get what the 2A ppl were on about. You have muslims shooting up whole theaters (Bataclan), running trucks over ppl and of late in Germany, pushing 8 year old kids in front oncoming trains or chopping up ppl w samurai swords on the street. And you have have to take a long class to own a double barreled shotgun which you have to register so they can take it away, b/c apparently you re not allowed to hunt rabbits or ducks if you are ‘right-wing.’ And a permit for a, again registered,… Read more »
I think it’s pretty likely that GHW Bush would have won if not for Perot. Clinton didn’t even win a popular majority and I would guess 90+% of Perot’s votes came from the right.
ETA: I also voted for Perot, but I was in a battleground state. I voted for Perot in ’96, too. Dole & Clinton didn’t represent much of a choice.
Android looks better too, Commenting with mobile also seems to be less “jumpy” – the browser doesn’t constantly run back to its upper left woobie but now happily strolls normally while you’re commenting. The League of Long-Winded Commenters thanks you.
Hey Zman, are you going to be doing an article about ‘rat-infested’ Baltimore? Didn’t you say you live or lived there recently?
Low-IQ Vox Day was destroyed by JF Gariepy.

Great show! Some really fine logic in there. Baltimore sounds almost just like New Orleans. What could they have in common?
Please write the book.
The mobile version is MUCH more readable, thanks.
In completely unrelated news, I’m 63.
Regarding outlier minorities/civic nationalism, I would permit them as “associates” in small numbers (<10% ish of White pop) in similar fashion to how the Mafia treated Irishmen and Jews so long as they were Jim Crow/apartheid-style segregated from core ethnic areas. I've commented before that I'd also make provision in my ideal ethnostate for internationalist free cities which were politically, socially and East/West Berlin-style physically firewalled from their Jim Crow/apartheid mixed ethnic zone "suburbs," with Whites-only areas being the vast majority of remaining territory. Non-Whites of the "CivNat" smart fraction would be eligible for leadership in the mixed zone or… Read more »
Your accepted non-whites will inevitably find means to breed with our women. Even artificial ones. Physical separation must be enforced under penalty of death. We cannot sustain a healthy white population if our females are permitted to birth hatchlings of the others. Exclusive breeding will determine whether whites persist.
I’m pretty clear there about apartheid-level separation. As for death penalty, that’s White Sharia on steroids. I don’t think White wahmen raised in a healthy White society are so desparate to burn the coal that only the threat of death can quench the thirst. Look at the pre-1960’s South – simply outlawing mixed marriage was sufficient until the Berger court stuck its crooked nose(s) into the mix.
Hey Zman, when you recommend people to follow, read, etc, could you provide links, or written names, etc. Listening to the blog then trying to decipher and hunt down can be impossible at times.
For example you said follow the momma and the pepes? Can’t find them but I have no idea if I am even close to the actual name lol.
The left hand bar on the home page is chock full of them. This is how I found James LaFond, who I find endlessly entertaining. And got me to take up rather amateur level stick fighting.
( Sorry, off topic ). SamlAdams said: ” I found James LaFond, who I find endlessly entertaining.” If you want endlessly entertaining, you have to check out Joe Bob Briggs on ” Taki’s Magazine.” https://www.takimag.com/contributor/JoeBobBriggs/245/
You’re full of shinola on “world at war”. I watched it with my dad on tv, and it had an episode called “death works overtime”. Youre local station probably pulled it because of naked bodies moved around by bull dozers.
You might also read Bloodlands by Timothy Snyder. Not much needed to be made up.
The episode was #20 “Genocide” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_World_at_War
Film clips of piles of bodies being moved by bulldozers in a country ravaged by World War II = indisputable proof that 6 million Jews were killed by being cattle-carred into gas chambers by the SS, and if you don’t believe that, you’re full of “shinola,” goy.
And if that doesn’t convince you, read a book by the Richard C. Levin chair at Yale and member of the Council on Foreign Relations whose Oxford mentor was a Warsaw Pact Ashkenazi.
Every. Single. Time.
I didnt present it as indisputable proof. Just that zman isnt ready for prime time, if he cant get this right. Just like he still needs a copy editor.
You might switch to the new lighter flavor jew-spread, because you’re tasting them in every sandwich.
Which other parts of the world at war do you think were falsified?
@AHfOh I go back and forth on the “copy editor” question. On the one hand, my inner perfectionist, highly-verbal, PR professional (for nearly 15 years, back before the bag came off my head) wants him to read aloud his posts, and then he’ll discover 99% of his errors. (It’s that easy.) But on the other hand, I think: “Oh, what the heck. We know what he’s trying to say, and I understand his ideas and observations, which are important in our movement.” But I will admit that sometimes when “women” needs to be written as the singular form of “woman,”… Read more »
How about you run along and go fuck yourself. You are now the third person permanently banned from the site
Who are the other two?
We’re expressly discussing the Holocaust and this shill says that mentioning Jews is a sign of pathology. Shit-tier trolling, shapeshifters.
