All About Me

After a while of doing this, you get to see the patterns. Certain times of the year have high traffic to the site, more comments and so on. Other times of the year it goes the other way, sometimes in the extreme. Most years, the week leading up to Memorial Day in the United States is one of the slowest weeks. Independence Day is another dead period for the site. It makes sense and is encouraging. People are thinking about outside stuff, so they don’t have time for politics.

This year has not been much different, despite the fact everyone has been stuck at home for going on two months. Around here, people would normally be headed to the beach or off to the woods for camping and hiking. The locals would be looking forward to a long weekend of shooting at one another. The lock down has been lifted by the state, but local government continues to keep the policies in place, so the beach and camping are closed. Gun play is still possible.

Still, traffic has ticked down, so I thought it would be a good week to catch up on the mail bag, but the mail has gotten away from me again. I sat down last night to clean out the inbox and the task was too much. I did notice a lot of familiar questions from unfamiliar correspondents. That spawned the brilliant idea of doing a show on the most common questions I get from readers and listeners. All of them are about me in some way, hence the title of the show this week.

I have to say that I did not like how it came out. I’m not a fan of talking about myself, as I’m not that interesting. It’s not false modesty. It is reality. No one is really that interesting when you think about it. You can do interesting things or have interesting experiences, but those things are not dependent upon you to be interesting. Throw Fred from accounting into the middle of a street riot and Fred will have some fun stories for the next office party. Fred, however, is still a boring guy.

That said, I have been studying live streaming for the last couple of months, as I have been contemplating that avenue. One of the things I’ve noticed is all of the popular streamers are highly personal in their presentation. They talk about themselves endlessly on their shows. That may be the appeal. For the people watching these shows, it’s like having the streamer in the home. Even TV chat show hosts are not as personal in their presentation as the live streamer.

What that means is if you wish to be a modern media star these days, you will have to endlessly talk about yourself. That’s probably why the space is so heavy with women and gay men. That’s the other thing I’ve noticed about the live stream world. It has a lot of girls and gay guys. At least I think they are girls and gays. You never can tell for sure, as some of them may be a man dressed as a woman claiming to be deer. Some claim to be hundreds of people trapped in a girl’s body.

This is a familiar topic, but there has to be consequences to having the public space dominated by lunatics. Even assuming they are harmless lunatics, like the guy in drag claiming to be Bambi. It is impossible to have a serious conversation with someone in that condition. Why would you? It is impossible to be mature and thoughtful in the presence of someone claiming to be a deer. It means all serious conversation about serious issues will be crowded out by the lunatics.

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. I am now on Deezer, for our European haters and Stitcher for the weirdos. YouTube also has the full podcast. Of course, there is a download link below.

Grtst Gen 85% White Silent Gen 80% White Boomers 72% White Gen Xers 60% White Millennials 55% White Gen Z 50% White Under 15 years old is majority non white. As this continues all problems – ones of faith, economics, governance, political optics, political rights, cultural touchstones, community formation, power and influence – will no longer be a problem for whites to mull and argue over. Non Whites will relieve us of those responsibilities. It would be great if all dissidents could all be on the same page in how to approach this but that’s not going to happen. A… Read more »

God I hope you’re right. We’ve been waiting for that alarm to go off for ages. My biggest worry is that as things deteriorate more and more of our people simply begin dropping out because they don’t see anything worth fighting for. At some point a quandary becomes a lost cause. Too many people going down their own rabbit hole isn’t helping.

Just so. Imagine the heady 1950s and 60s in the USA. We’d just won the world war, democracy was victorious. Anything was possible. We could finally throw off the last shackles of the Negro. Now with equal rights, he would join his rightful place in civilization. Meanwhile, we saw that we must generously let in a lot more of the foreigners who would become good Americans in just a generation or two. Hell, we were going to the Moon. Nothing was impossible!

Great comment. Demographics are destiny.

“Not to worry, empty stomachs are a great motivation. Won’t be long until American whites aren’t fat & happy.” True. Other great motivators include being attacked, hated, abused, slandered, shamed, and ultimately possibly murdered en masse. Oppression—or the realistic threat of it—is a wonderful tool for driving people together. That would be us.

We went the other way on the children thing. When my high school sweat heart got pregnant, we got married. Coming from shitlib families we were considered a disgrace, and nobody gave our marriage a chance of lasting more than a couple years. (We just had our 35th anniversary back in March). Contrarily, unlike the other kids in our families, we are the only ones still on our first marriage. All the others are divorced. 🙂 I hate to say it, but having a child was the biggest life mistake I ever made. I was in trouble right from the… Read more »

If you don’t have one already, develop a local mannerbund. It doesn’t even have to be explicitly political. You’ll be shocked have much pain you can absorb and how much easier you can swat away your pozzed families’ idiocy (and influence them), when you have a strong male tribe you are attached to.

Learned this in my twenties when I wondered why everyone saw me as weak and a pushover. Once I started hanging out with a group of like-minded guys, it changed like a switch.

I think you men have the right of it. In fact, I think it should become one of the first and foremost missions of the dissident right. Look: we know how these f*cks roll. They sexualize kids in elementary now, and put queers and pedos in charge to teach them everything they didn’t need to know about anal sex. It goes downhill from there: kids are taught from childhood why Johnny has three daddies, why Trump=Hitler, and why Tyrone and his fellow joggers can never succeed. We need the Boy Scouts back – minus the queers and pedophiles. We need… Read more »

I sincerely feel bad for what happened to you with your daughter. I am blessed to have great kids who have never given me a minute of trouble. They are the best thing that happened to me in my entire life.

I can’t even take credit for them being the way they are. They have been that way since birth. I never even had to discipline them. They are now adults and are much better people than I am. I just got lucky.

I generally don’t give down votes, but – you’re full of chit. I’ve seen any number of parents that brag about their perfect children. Single moms are the worst, they all think their children are ‘amazing’. And the kids are invariably always monsters. By the time their kids are in their teens they’re either failing at school or in trouble with the police, or both. Pull my other finger, MA – It has bells on it.

John. All important life decisions involve proportional levels of risk. Marriage is a risk, even without kids. Read any of the men’s groups for eye openers. And I’ll admit, marriage seems a poor choice for ready availability of sex these days. Marriage would seem important precisely because of desire for family. In the Jewish tradition it is considered poor form to brag about your children—as they are a gift from God, good or bad—and you play a limited roll in the process.

Any word on how men (or women for the matter) turn out after a divorce? I’m a sample of the no-kids, never-married male, but just the risk of divorce would quash the deal for me. A wise man once said, “When the dick grows hard, the mind grows soft.” 🙂 As regards the lower classes, widespread welfare destroyed whatever remained of the need for a traditional male in the home. Did the middle class really do much better?

As I understand the stat’s from Murray’s book, “Coming Apart”. The middle and lower middle classes are not doing very well in the traditional family department. That’s in contrast to the upper middle and elite classes who have not readily abandoned traditional values such as marriage and family.

Not sure of cause and effect here, but in friends who have broken (or no families) families, I tend to note that they are/were also doing poorly economically at the time.

My sibling John says, “if you are going to have kids, it is something that you really, REALLY need to think about. There are real risks….” True, but not relevant: Children are ALWAYS a leap into the unknown. I feel for my bro and the family insanity he’s experienced. Yet today’s children will inherit the future and make it what it will become. We cannot leave it to the degenerate and insane, so we must take a leap of faith and be the best parents we can, even if we risk failure in the end.

Possibly Jim. I can see a flip side to that: what kind of kids are raised by single parent mothers? 25% of all our mass murderers and criminals are from single parent families. And I have no firm numbers or data, but my anecdotal observation seems to be that over 80% of the remainder children – go on to become marginal adults at best.

They can’t look after themselves, never mind our collective future… But as one of the others pointed out – you can do everything right and fail,… Read more »

John said with respect to having children, “as one of the others pointed out – you can do everything right and fail, and do everything wrong and succeed.” That is true; it is also why having children is always “a leap into the unknown.” Yet doing so is related to the Christian concept of faith; that is something we must uphold, no matter how uncertain the ultimate outcome.

I have watched kids in our private school go from 3 years old to 8th grade for a long time. Some are like your kids and never gave any trouble at all. Some had great parents and some had bad parents. On the other hand, there were those who were bad apples from being a baby. And yes, some had good parents and some did not.

There is something in the DNA that contributes to these things. Damn, I’ll say it. Genetics matters.

I made lots of mistakes, James. In my defense, I was still on the other side of the great divide. I didn’t come here willingly. It was only after my daughter left home that I began to notice things and question them. We should have homeschooled – but at the time our economy was in recession and we both had to work to make ends meet. We couldn’t afford the private schools either. The other thing that I would do over, if possible – would be to move as far away from the family and in laws as possible. Especially… Read more »

The one piece of advice I now give to parents is, don’t stop with just one child. My wife and I did stop with one (tried for another, but we started too late I guess). He’s a great kid with a good heart, but the only child thing is very real. They are spoiled in more ways than I ever imagined. It’s not just the material stuff. Not having a younger sibling, he hasn’t learned the independence that comes when parents have to shift their attention to a baby. Not having an older sibling, he doesn’t have an example.

It is thought that much of the feminazi grift gripping the culture is due to small families bringing on great percentages of girls having no brothers.

Outdoorspro

I’m thinking it might also be from boys having no brothers. Brothers fight and learn to fight by fighting each other. Not too long ago, my young son started making some noise about wanting to fight a classmate. I reminded him that this classmate has an older brother, who isn’t exactly a nice guy, so he probably knows how to scrap better than my son. Of course, it made me realize that I need to find an outlet to teach him how to fight. Couldn’t hurt his hockey game either…

I know this opinion could be very unpopular here but I think… spanking a child turns out bad for the child (except for maybe a necessary light swat on occasion around the age of two or three.)

Philadelphia is a lot like Baltimore in that sense. It’s one of the oldest cities in the US with lots of great architecture. There are parts of Philadelphia which used to be majestic.

Like the other mentally ill man dressed as a woman who has taken over the open source movement, these lunatics also tend to be obsessive and devote endless energy to their projects.

I told my brother when he reached thirty (he’s 60 now) that he needs to go places where the women who want to get married are, like church. He didn’t and is childless. Men didn’t used to require their wives to share their philosophy. Rich, educated men used to marry their secretaries, and went to church with their wives even if they weren’t believers. It wasn’t just the teenage girls who changed in the ’80s.

The best thing we can do is give them a place of their own to run [down] 🙁 White do-gooders should be allowed to help them, but not if it causes problems for those of us who would rather live in a monochromatic community 🙂 If any… Read more »

Funny to hear about the whole Gen-Xer no kids thing – it seemed to happen over the span of one afternoon that everyone agreed children were the worst possible thing. I listened to Springsteen’s “The River,” the other day and was thinking about how odd it seems now and how, in 1980, it perfectly captured how all the kids felt. How strange: a sad ballad about how a guy spent a couple years shagging his tasty girlfriend, knocks her up, gets married, and then the community provides him with lifetime employment so he can raise his family. But he sings… Read more »

It’s always fun watching middle and upper-class blacks trying to relate to and draw no distinctions between themselves and their children and Travon Martin, Freddie Grey, Mike Brown and now the Jogging man. It really is fun watching them justify the appalling behavior of these guys and pretend the only reason they are dead is because they are black and that they themselves are one ‘agitated white guy’ away from being killed in the streets for driving while black or jogging while or just generally living while black.

I understand completely why middle and upper class blacks respond this way. Even if they can’t articulate it this way, a “middle class” black mom knows her kids will be just as violent and dysfunctional as the people she left behind in the ghetto. One or two isolated “middle class” black kids in the suburbs may be able to have their most extreme impulses managed by their white friends, but as soon as you get a critical mass of black kids in the suburbs, you get the same behavior that you see in the ghetto. This is because the behavior… Read more »

It’s more complicated than that. The black middle class is on average smarter and less violent than blacks in the ghetto. They are on average more violent than whites of the same IQ though. Their kids tend to be closer to the racial average than they are (the same is true for whites) via reversion to the mean. But my point is that they know the behavior is appalling and indefensible. And while it may be funny to watch them squirm, at the bottom of it all is hatred of white people. It is very easy to ascribe the bad… Read more »

PG County, back when I grew up in Montgomery County in the ’60s-’70s, was lower middle-class/working-class Whites. The so-called “middle class blacks” who moved in and took it over absolutely destroyed it. The entire “middle-class black” thing is a myth. Income does not alter genetics. Even half White admixture is generally not enough to overcome sub-Saharan genetics and life outcomes.

Pity the Talented Tenth Blacks (at least a little): they’ve made it into a semblance of the middle class (quite likely with a genrous helping of affirmative action and quotas). Then they have kids. Those darn genetics kick in. Even with “normal” (White people) the sad fact is that kids rarely turn out as successful as the parents (unless the parents are average!). The best thing that wealthier Blacks can hope for is to isolate their spawn from the worst elements of their race, for as long as possible.

Z on why he didn’t have kids resonated with me. I’m of Z’s generation, but younger and better looking.

In the 70s-80s, the message everywhere was that marriage was for suckers. My parents, bless them, stayed together while half of my friends’ parents divorced.

I guess that my parents wondered if they would be happier if they were single and childless I guess my Dad imagined he’d be having lots of sex with liberated women and my Mom imagined she’d be a CEO.

I absorbed the message that marriage and kids were for suckers and didn’t unlearn it until recently.

Your content is basically great, but one suggestion is to chop up your podcast into individual videos. You don’t even need real “video”, just one photo per segment.

People will be less intimidated by the 5 and 10 minute run times. Also, the “classics” can go viral, and be seen for many years after they’ve been released.

As it is now, they’re “locked up” in the longer podcasts, and only very hardy or hardcore listeners will binge-watch whole podcasts from years before.

Just a thought.

Yet Sowell and Thomas are general recognized as rare examples of human genius, regardless of their status as the “talented-trillionth” for blacks.

This threat they’re treating as a totality is actually a small minority TRS has admitted in the past is the most active. Ironically, being so black-pilled they’ve pigeonholed themselves into a place where they’re no longer a threat.

LineInSand, “hating” a group is not the same as “having a realistic view” of that group. It is not a “distraction” to say “I don’t hate [all] Jews.” Why? Because NAJALT. Nor is it a “distraction” when one does not “hate [all] blacks” because NABALT (as you noted yourself).

“The Right Stuff” 5 years ago they started a blog and a podcast as racially aware libertarians who opposed immigration and affirmative action. They attracted a big audience because many people found them funny and insightful. Their positions have evolved towards pro-white advocacy, “antisemitism,” socialism, and Modern Monetary Theory. Mike Enoch Peinovich is the leader. Many of their podcasts require a paid membership, from which a few of them make a living. They are a big deal in the pro-white world.

Z, since being anti-Semitic is so clearly not a part of being “dissident right,” how do you define “dissident right” today versus last year when you appeared on TRS’s “Fash the Nation” and the TRS-friendly “Myth of the 20th Century?” Is the admirably anti-Semitic “Rebel Yell” podcast of Identity Dixie – where last week’s “Power Hour” is on page 1 – part of the “dissident right?” I’d bother to mention that the TRS guys are considerably younger than you or I am, or point out that their network is probably newer than this blog, but you’ll just tell me you… Read more »

You’re absolutely correct. The Alt-Right’s embrace of big government repels a lot of potential recruits. Additionally, many of them have proven complete cucks on this virus hysteria. Richard Spencer is such a self-destructive twit that he might as well be a Fed. The Alt-Right’s ideas tend to look like little more than adverse reactions to mainstream conservatism. Hunter Wallace is an especially glaring example of that. Beyond that, whatever leadership they have shows no grasp of public relations at all. Say what you will about Nick Fuentes — he’s a lot more grounded than some of these other clowns.

If you had to choose between living in an all white big government polity or a multiracial small government polity, which would you choose? Is the crucial issue race or economics?

(This is a hypothetical example as I don’t believe non-whites would ever choose small government.)

It’s not a coincidence that Mike Enoch went full NazBol the moment that the court dismissed his issues in Charlottesville.

Hey RFF, Great to hear from you! Was in Deseret not long ago and thought of you (didn’t make it to Cedar). You’re 100% right as to what NazBol is – it’s essentially Communist economics married to National Socialist racial policy (conveniently forgetting that Uncle A was perfectly content to let Krupp & co make gobs of money as long as they supported the regime.) Sounds like a great way to win over the 25 year old white guy in Iowa who’s working at WalMart watching his High School buddies drop dead from fentanyl, right? Because if there’s one thing… Read more »

Hi Meme! Thanks for your take and good instruction. I don’t have the strength of will anymore to noodle around and research.

I don’t listen to TRS. Is the NAZBOL legit? Because from my experience many conservatives have taken up capitalism as a religion and call anything critical of corporate behavior socialism. I’m also apparently supposed to believe the nordic countries are hell on earth because of “socialism.”

The Nordic affluence experienced under socialism is really quite a recent thing, and the socialism followed the creation of wealth. 19th century Nordics were quite poor. They are by no means immune the the wreakage that socialism brings to family formation and everything that sustains a civilization, and their clock too is running out.

Well I’m pretty sure there’s tons of advanced structures from as early as the 16th century in Denmark so I’m little skeptical of your claim. What I can see is that most European countries were able to prosper under feudalism, monarchy, socialist-lite, and capitalist systems. Which tells me that the key ingredient is a population of high IQ, industrious people. They can make anything work. While places like Africa can’t make any system work. Even East Germany was many times wealthier than African nations despite an absurd government. While socialism may be absurd it is not the prime driver in… Read more »

There will never be anything like small government under DIVERSITY — as you hint at parenthetically. As to your questions: I choose race over economics. However, choosing race is essentially indistinguishable from choosing economics, because we all know the type of preferences that whites in this part of the world tend to have.

All the evidence suggests that government expands to fill the available resources. So far as I know the only proven way to get less government is collapse. Could the corona panic be a Libertarian hoax designed to achieve just that?

“Is the crucial issue race or economics?” Race, of course. Because economics is well downstream of race. So?

Non-whites (ex- Asians) probably are incapable of forming anything resembling a large government. (Counter-examples, please?) A geographical area with a smattering of tribes is not an acceptable substitute 😀

Simple explanation, which I assume you know, tribalism/ethnocentrism. White’s and East Asians are about the only ones to get beyond it. Hence any “successful” governments in those areas are by necessity, authoritarian—rather than democratic—albeit they might operate under such facade.

Not familiar with all this but it sounds like they might be making a play for the Bernie bros. On the (no longer outlandish) chance the Democratic party withers away, there will be room for a kind of nationalist leftism. Fascism by another name?

Lefties being unprincipled opportunists, it’s possible. Question is, does the former alt-right switch camps?

Paintersforms, interesting question. http://www.consentfactory.org is written by a hard leftie, that has gotten to roughly the same place we have on a lot of particulars, even though the underlying philosophy is completely different. I get the feeling that there really is no easy way to put things together in a way that is both internally completely consistent, or that would be popular enough to be picked up by Normie. We must simply chip away at things with what we know and understand, and we will find situational agreements about particulars, with those coming from other places. It is interesting to… Read more »

I haven’t listened to the podcast yet, but Spencer and the TRS guys aren’t doing what needs to done, which is getting the patriotic, flag-waving folks on our side. I’m sure they think of these people as “fake and gay” or “cringe” or some other contrarian novelty take. They’ve blown past trying to recruit American patriots to help stop importing the third world and keeping manufacturing at home, etc, and are off into some delusional new type of government which will have zero appeal to almost everyone. I’m sure they sneer at people like Fuentes, or Vince from Red Elephants,… Read more »

Optics-cucks are quick to declare victory and demand we all move on.

Don’t count a White man dead until you’ve seen his body, Meme.

PS – please explain how you can reconcile saying “who benefits from that” with the new Z-blog stand against anti-Semitism.

It’s ok to vaguely hint at Zionist conspiracies so long as you say 3 NAJALT’s first and take a sip of the communion kool-aid?

Readers, keep in mind that “optics” can be used to distort as well as enhance clarity.

TRS and the Jews. Right train wrong track. The only thing worst than their current tack would be ignoring the JQ. Holocaust denialism after 7 decades of brainwashing is self-defeating. Holocaust weaponization against the West would be a more productive tack. Describe Jewish group interests and how they differ and conflict with Western interests and values in a few paragraphs. As an example focus upon the fevered dreams about the Holocaust coming out of Hollywood and how they are like everything else that comes out of Hollywood, an endless anti-White psyops working in favor of non Western group interests.

The Visegrad countries are worthy of tremendous respect. I wish they were not in the EU, but they at least don’t seem to be as corrupted by that organization as the other members. But, yes, Visegrad could be an analogue to what I, and many other dissident rightists, have in mind for North America.

In regards to the TRS types, I’d like to see our own coalition of the fringes. I agree, though, what is needed is not to persuade or convince, but to first find mutual agreement. That’s why people talk in the first place. Me and the Christians think each other has it bass-akwards, but we’ve arrived at the same place. The Tribulation is here. What the Christians don’t quite get is that many of the figures in the Book- Adam and the Snake, Cain and Abel, the False Jew and the Messiah of the Revelations– are not individuals or entities.

(Apologies to whatever parable I stole this from…) We are just the servants treating each other poorly and wrecking the home, while the Master is away on a journey. The believers would have you believe that Master will punish wrong-doers and restore order when He returns. The skeptics would say there is no master. The Realist (me) sadly notes that, in either case, the house is a shambles in the meantime. No problem, grab a bottle from the cellar, light up a Blunt and enjoy 🙁

Zman, what you are talking about (other livestreamers) is a persona. also your voice is probably your best feature (not having seen your face though) and you have said people have recognized you at events based on it. So IMO that should be the “core” of whatever persona you come up with. I personally find the South eternally interesting, and more than a little exotic. Southern Gothic is one of my favorite genres, whether in literature, plays, or movies 🙂 And I think there are a lot of Americans with that same interest; maybe even in the South itself.

Try being that guy that lets his guests talk about interesting things, without the host walking all over the conversation, or turning each conversation into a story about what the host thinks. Of course, the trick is to get guests with interesting things to talk about, and who know how to tell a good story without going on forever. Finding a good supply of that kind of guest is the hard part.
