A Bridge Too Far

The other day, I witnessed a Korean complain about whites using “WuFlu” or “Kung Flu” to describe the Chinese flu. He claimed that he and his family have been the victims of harassment, because angry whites are blaming China for the flu. Because white people are raging racists, we cannot tell the difference between Koreans and Chinese, so Koreans are getting the business from roving mobs and angry whites. It’s all nonsense, but not surprising. Hating white people is the national pastime.

This event happened on a message board, so I took the opportunity to remind the Korean guy that many white people lost family members saving his people from the clutches of communism. If not for white people, he would be standing in a rice paddy or pushing a wooden boat along a diseased river. That assumes he would be alive, as the life expectancy of Koreans was quite low until white people arrived. In a sane world, he would spend one day a year thanking white people.

If there is to be just one line to describe the history of white people on this planet, it should be “No good deed goes unpunished.” White people literally pulled the world out of the dark ages, but the world remains an ungrateful place. Asians in America are now working on their grievance tales, about how the round-eye was mean to them during the great yellow pandemic of 2020. The fact that they would be eating bugs and living in huts if not for the white man is conveniently forgotten.

One has to wonder if this is a bridge too far. Whites can tolerate ungrateful blacks, because of slavery. There’s also the fact that left to their own devices, blacks revert to a Neolithic lifestyle. Without white people, Africa would look like a Tarzan movie. This is something even the most far-left person knows, even if they refuse to admit it. White people feel obliged to help Africans, despite the lack of gratitude. It remains to be seen if the same dynamic can hold up with Asians.

Asia is not Africa. After the war, Japan rebuilt itself with the help of America and joined the modern world quite quickly. Korea took a lot longer, but once they found the right strongman, he pulled his people into the modern world. Again, massive help from America made it possible, but they eventually made it. Other Asian societies have joined modernity in fits and starts. Even Vietnam, which is one of the most backward places in Asia, has slowly modernized over the last few decades.

China, of course, is the elephant in the room. It was a backward, barbaric madhouse through the 1970’s. Before Deng Xiaoping dragged his country out of the dark ages of Maoism, it was one of the most dysfunctional societies on earth. Even so, she went from barbarism to modernity at a remarkable rate. China is still very Chinese, but China is not Africa. In fact, all of Asia has the human capital to avoid being Africa, even if the West turns its back on the continent. They don’t need us.

The same applies in America. Asians have never suffered much in the way of discrimination in America. The Japanese internment always gets brought up, but that was thoroughly justified. War is never pleasant. Otherwise, white people in America have welcomed Asians into the country and allowed them to make what they will of themselves and Asians have done quite well. East Asians have a median household income of $85,349 compared to $57,865 for whites.

Without the burden of slavery or low human capital, it seems like a hard sell to convince whites to feel guilty toward Asians. In fact, the result of such an effort could very well be the opposite, a resentment toward an ungrateful minority of visitors. Asking Africans to head back to their ancestral homeland is unreasonable. Asking Asians to go back to their homelands is not so unreasonable. Korea is a sparkling first world country, so if Koreans are unhappy in America, planes leave daily for Seoul.

Then there is that China problem. It is highly probable that China poisoned the world, causing massive damage and suffering. Maybe it was an accident. Maybe it would have happened anyway, but the evidence is clear that China lied to the world about the nature of this virus and where it started. No amount of special pleading can cause white people to overlook this. Western politicians, despite their lunacy, will have no choice but to address the China problem, even if that makes the other Asians sad.

It is not just the virus or the lying about it. People forget that the Chinese tried to poison the world’s pets a few years back. In 2007, many brands of cat and dog foods had to be recalled due to contamination with melamine. The Chinese also poisoned our toothpaste with toxic chemicals. Go way back and we have the expression “sand bagging” from the way dishonest Chinese tea merchants tried to cheat their European customers. This is what’s called a pattern of behavior.

To Westerners, Asian habits are barbaric, but not primitive. Again, Asians are not backward people like Africans. Asians know better, but choose to eat dogs and cats and turn pests into bizarre delicacies. They choose to poison our pet food. With choice comes responsibility. If Asians choose to do these things, then the West has no choice but to turn its back on Asians. As we see with the virus pandemic, as a matter of survival, the West will have reevaluate its relationship with China.

That’s what makes the effort by Asians in America to play the victim card seem like a bridge too far. They can file their complaints with the office of grievances, but that line is very long. The reason the line is especially long is social distancing means everyone has to stand six feet apart. That and half the staff is working at home in order to avoid being too close to one another. No, there will not be a pogrom against Asians, but whitey is in no mood to hear their complaints.

Five hundred years of being on top and a very clever 5th column minority pushing their agenda can lead a people to believe very stupid things.

To my way of thinking the Asian mind is not so much IM-moral as DIFFERENTLY moral. For good or ill, we of European descent live under an ethos and morality that is HEAVILY steeped in Christianity. Asia remains – TO THIS VERY DAY – profoundly pagan.

Bill, once again, religion and culture are downstream from genetics. There are plenty of putative Christians in China – and in Korea. And tons of them come here, buy buildings from formerly White churches, repaint the roof and door in keeping with fung shui and various superstitions, and worship in their own language and still manage to retain their ethnic identity and ‘different’ morals – despite their pastiche of Christianity.

Not really no. I have met many Asian Christians and while they still have some cultural hangovers (my own Celtic and Germanic ancestors took centuries to fully Christianize), they are almost a different species from their pagan brothers and sisters. They are intelligible. They are my brothers and sisters and far closer to trustworthy than the apostate liberal American white.

Genetics is being used like some sort of augury here. If it’s all materialist determinism, then even this conversation doesn’t matter. You really can’t prove religion and culture as downstream from genetics, at all, the science isn’t there.

the thing is, Asian Christians will probably remain a minority in their countries, at least for a while, unless they can keep growing and take power (could happen, at least they attempt to breed more than secular Asians). added to the probably slightly different genetic makeup (because populations within a race are similar, but not the same), they are stigmatized as pro-Westerners too. ergo both genetics and culture interplay, as culture tends to be controlled by the genetic (sub)group in power. i agree that this blog is pretty much more sober NRx talk, but still has the slight drawback of… Read more »

Anecdote: during a very brief career ca 2000 with a tiny firm with HQ in DC (It was a sub-sub-contractor), 8A firm Chinese owned. I had some contact with Chinese workers. Those with children would send their kids to “Chinese school” (no idea of percentages). In a way that’s good: Even in the affluent DC area, you’ll probably get higher quality at the average private academy. They want to teach their offpspring some of the mother land’s culture.

I believe it was Roger Scruton (I could be wrong about the source) that spoke on why East Asia never developed classical music with the level of complexity seen in Europe.

I think it was attributed to Christianity, the idea of sin, repentance, forgiveness. And that it adds something to you. I think it’s that plus the concept of the individual which is missing in East Asia. Take those two things away and you end up in a sterile, if still materially successful, world.

In the DC area, Asians and Indians are on the rise. Whites don’t like it. Jews really don’t like it because the Asians and Indians play their game.

Whites – even liberal whites – don’t like being lectured by Asians and Indians. It just doesn’t fly. Personally, I like Asians and Indians bitching about white racism because it wakes up a lot of whites,, especially upper middle class whites, who are realizing that this will never end and that their jobs and kids’ futures are threatened by these groups.

A key aspect of the problem with dealing with the CCP is that they began bribing and blackmailing US politicians, business executives, and media power players nearly two decades ago. And that effort has borne much fruit. Much like the Mafia of yore, they own a lot key people in important positions. And this is worldwide, not just the US.

Indeed. the whole Lewinsky impeachment was a complete set up from day one to cover the Clinton’s selling top secret tech to the Chinese. Bill and Hi decided that to be known for a sex scandal was a great cover to drown out the stories that were peeking through, provided a long running impeachment cover and no one in their circles really gives a shit about that stuff. So who cares.

It was manufactured from day one and nothing about it was real.

A colleague of mine is a Korean, brought to this country and cared for by white parents who adopted her. A few years ago she changed her last name back to her ancestral Korean name. Honestly, not a big deal, as where one comes from still matters, even if adopted. Unfortunately it’s slowly progressed to your usual prog victim bandwagon, complete with hectoring people who call COVID19 The Chinese flu and is trying to bask in those sweet, sweet, victim points.

Funny thing is, most of the “anti-Asian” incidents of the last couple months have been by blacks, in the typical black way. The Asians have to pretend that it’s mostly whites doing it. They understand that they cannot bitch publicly about Africans lest Jews accuse them of white supremacy, even though they are yellow.

There’s also the current fashion for Whites to adopt Black babies. A loving family and healthy environment can only do so much to overcome a negative genetic inheritance. The offspring of a welfare mamma and gangbanger isn’t going to grow up to be a Rhodes scholar. The pull of biology will probably pull the adoptee back into the Black world.

Adoption and twin studies show over and over and over that biology trumps nurture. That is not to say biology isn’t at least somewhat plastic. However, like real plastic, there are limits. Also, nurture can do a lot more damage than it can do good. Like starving a child can make them really dumb, but feeding it properly isn’t going to make it smarter. Depriving them of school will make them ignorant, but putting them in school will do no good if the biology isn’t there.

The funny thing is we always had a strange “love/hate” relationship with the Japanese. The industrialization post Meji restoration was one of the under appreciated economic miracles of the time–frankly the Chinese look like pikers under Deng. Japanese immigration always had a “special” status compared to Chinese–including Roosevelt’s “Gentlemen’s Agreement”. Plus they were accorded Great Power status at Versailles and the subsequent international agreement (Washington Naval Treaty, etc.). The 1924 Act caused a break, when Japanese were fully excluded from entry.

A long, long time ago, spent quite a bit of research time on the origins and Congressional debates on the 1924 Immigration Act. Despite historical revisionism, Congress was taking a gimlet eyed stare at what was importing itself from Europe and rightfully concluded that stocking up on leftist radicals was not a good idea. Unfortunately, the Japanese got tacked on for exclusion, mostly due to Valentine McClatchy and his newspaper chain stirring up resentments and convincing reps from CA to tack on that language.

Every person of Japanese descent born in the US was considered a Japanese citizen and encouraged to register with Japan. 2.

The Chinese invented the typeset press 500 years before the Europeans. And for five hundred years, they used it for printing paper money – a fact they’re extremely proud of.

Two decades after Guthenberg, there were more than a thousand print shops in Europe, and Europe was in the throes of political, philosophical, scientific and religious revolutions.

Same story with gunpowder. In the space of time it took the Chinese to develop artillery rockets into slightly less ineffectual artillery rockets, the Europeans went from stone cannonballs to machine guns.

The problem with spoken Chinese, Mandarin at least, abandoning the use of characters is that it uses only a limited amount of phonetics.

There’s no way in Chinese to make new sounds or accurately create phonetic representations of sounds that don’t already exist in the language.

In order to become a ‘Mandarin’ (state official) one had to pass a series of exams where you were tested on your knowledge of traditional Chinese literature and also on how well you formed the characters of your written answers. This knowledge had little practical use except being the entry ticket to the arena of intra-elite competition for the usual prizes of sex power and money. But it had many socio-political… Read more »

Perhaps we’re reaching a tipping point on globalization? Yesterday on twitter, something called the George W. Bush Presidental Center (@TheBushCenter) posted this: “When the crisis is over…we must be ready to come together around a new strategy for globalization that secures its benefits and cures its ills.” And linked to this article: https://www.realclearworld.com/articles/2020/03/25/globalization_and_resilience_responding_to_the_pandemic_487506.html

The “like to reply ratio” was more lopsided than I’ve ever seen on twitter. Thousands of replies, 99.9 percent along the lines of “hell no,” “globalization is what got us into this mess,” “STFU,” “hard pass,” “Pat Buchanan was right,” “enough with globalization”…..and so on….

There’s a synergy between the state and the corporations in these things too because no matter how insane the latest panic a big enough corporation can always position itself to scoop up some of the profits from whatever mad crusade the political class is pursuing. Corporations in turn “make suggestions” (written on packs of hundred dollar bills) to the politicos about what the next crusade should be. This vicious spiral… Read more »

American Blacks and East Asians living in America seem to dislike each other at a level that appears to be pre-conscious. Based on what I have heard from men who have served in four different countries in East Asia, this is a universal phenomenon, varying in intensity (or at least obviousness) depending on the locale.

It would be malpractice not to exploit this and similar friction between the other tribes contesting for this continent. But the hall monitors and den mothers of purity always wet themselves when I bring up engaging nonwhites to achieve our own objectives.

No.. Dad is White. He was headed for the Pacific theater (Airborne) for the invasion of Japan (Operation Downfall). Thankfully, Japan surrendered after getting nuked twice.

The initial invasion plans for Kyushu was going to use 7 nukes in the opening salvo followed by chemical weapons. Dad’s chances of survival would have been questionable at best.

Judas priest, somebody wanted to genocide those people like they wanted a full genocide of the Germans.

No, I don’t think that somebody was us, but then I’d have to explain that whole ‘spiritual war and genetics’ thingie.

Without white people, Africa would look like a Tarzan movie.

Well, but without the heroic White Tarzan to save the day.

Actually, in what way does Africa not look like a Tarzan movie? Except in real life the White saviors are better dressed.

The natives now have AKs and Javelin missles instead of spears and rocks with which to kill each other.

If you ever wondered what would happen if Neolithic men had automatic rifles I have a ticket to the Congo I’d like to sell you.

That said, Africa w/o gun powder, or only for ‘bwanas’, is a pretty adventurous place.

He should go back to Korea where he doesn’t have to deal with such terrible persecution.

Would make (probably already is) a good bumper sticker, at least for a pickup where “open carry” is legal: 🙂

“If you’re so proud of where you’re from, why don’t you go back there???”

That Japanese-American guy I’d read way back in the day reflected at times that, even though he was 100% genetic Japanese, they he may as well have been a red-headed Irishman in Japan due to his American accent. It’s as with much else, it’s projection.

Zman sorry you are fundamentally misreading the situation. What White peoples want is totally irrelevant.

Already cops as a matter of course arrest Christians worshiping at Easter. Even in their cars. Most states have outlawed Christianity.

White peoples will be forced to kneel and grovel. Governors and Mayors like Judge Dredd are the law.

Cuomo seems intent on ruling by emergency for a few more years. Northam and Newsome are following suit.

Governors have cops ready to arrest and fine you on the spot for not groveling. To your betters. Which most definitely includes Asians.

Re: ” Asking Asians to go back to their homelands is not so unreasonable. Korea is a sparkling first world country, so if Koreans are unhappy in America, planes leave daily for Seoul.” “Asking Africans to head back to their ancestral homeland is unreasonable. ” First off I’d say that *maybe* asking African descended Americans to go back to their ancestral homeland is unreasonable – especially because they’ve been here so long – and also because many of they truly do support this country. I’d agree that unreasonable is a term that can possibly get applied here – because blacks… Read more »

IIRC, we tried “repatriating” blacks to Africa after the War of Northern Aggression. The result was Liberia (average I.Q. 80?). IMS, Sierra Leone is the result of the Brits doing the same thing earlier. I always was a big fan of “America. LOVE it or LEAVE it!”

It is irrelevant whether Whites like Asians playing the racist guilt game. The country no longer belongs to Whites and our opinions don’t matter. All we do is keep the wheels turning, pay for our replacements, fight the tribe’s wars and serve as bogeymen to keep our replacements motivated and slightly cohesive. The fact that we built the country and are still a majority yet are inconsequential is why Asians take so much glee in copying the tribe by mocking us and treating us like chumps. They would never willingly let people do to them what we have and continue… Read more »

My old man, two uncles and a great uncle got to spend “holidays” on the Korean peninsula from ’50-54. It changed all of them. Great uncle got yanked back to active duty at the outset, since apparently guys who managed to survive D+6 to VE in a Sherman were considered “talent”. Never recall any of them getting a thank you card. Though, to their credit, the Koreans made the most of the blood contribution. I’ve always found societies that manage to maintain their identity when surrounded by great powers interesting–think Korea and Vietnam interesting. Have to hand one thing to… Read more »

In the U.S. Marine Corps there is a lot of respect for ROK Marines. Hard little bastards who are fully prepared to fight to the death.

My understanding was that in Vietnam the NVA would deliberately avoid contact with Korean units for that reason. We had a guy owned a dry cleaners in town and used to march in the Memorial Day parade every year and was a member of the local VFW post, though he had served in the Korean Armed forces–and in Vietnam. Didn’t find out until after he died recently that he was “grandfathered” into the org because he was apparently one of those “badasses”.

The idea that some trans national Asian racial identity exists is complete and utter bullshit. The Korean claiming such has been thoroughly assimilated into American progressive culture.

The reality is that Koreans, Japanese, Vietnamese. Khmer, Thais, Laos, Hmong and innumerable other East Asian nationalities all hate each other, especiall
