Diversity is Divisive

Commenter Flippityflopitty sends this link via email. Let's Get Real About Racism: Lee Mun Wah:
Before we can truly become a multicultural nation, we must have relationships based on respect and understanding, reflection and compassion; where our differences and our similarities are embraced, valued, useful and integrated into the very fabric of our workplaces, communities, schools and governmental institutions. I come from the belief that awareness and holidays are just the beginning. What is required is an ongoing dialogue and relationship with each other, one that allows for conflict and differences, questions and curiosity. To me, that is what a healthy and intimate relationship possesses. I hope that you will join me in making this not only a better world for our children, but for ourselves – not by starting tomorrow, but beginning today.

Like the punch line for a joke about two Chinese named Wong having a caucasian baby, 'Two Wongs don't make a White."

This man clearly should be named, 'Sum Ting Wong' for assuming that Whites are WRONG in their assessment of the IMPLICIT TAKEOVER OF OUR COUNTRY.

Never again. Never forgive, never forget.

The US is now littered with NFP's that provide the "training" to eliminate racism. What's interesting is the difference between the presented goal and what they cite in resources and "working papers". Another gem (one of hundreds or more):

"Racism in the United States is a problem of white supremacy that has world-wide manifestations. It involves an unequal distribution of power for people with white skin
privilege in four main areas: a) the power to make and enforce decisions; b) access to resources; c) the power to set and determine standards for what is considered appropriate behavior; and d) the power to define reality."
[from "Working Assumptions"]

"OPPRESSION: The combination of prejudice and institutional power which creates a system that discriminates against some groups (often called “target groups”) and benefits other groups (often called “dominant or nontarget groups”). Examples of these systems are racism, sexism,
heterosexism, ableism, classism, ageism, and anti-Semitism. These systems enable dominant grous to exert control over target groups by limiting their rights, freedom, and access to basic resources suchas health care, education, employment, and housing."
[From: "Glossary"]

Now, as much as I criticize for "broad scapegoating" does anyone else see how these two (2) resources apply to you know who?

I had to throw in another personal peeve -cherry-picking history. [There are too many nuggets from the link below so I will stick to the one point]

Another good will organization provides their personal perspective on history in their working papers section:

"Through a deep analysis of the colonial project, the foundations of the systemic economic, cultural, and racist oppression that we have inherited today are made visible. To do this honestly and authentically we must rely heavily on the insights and experiences of those for whom colonialism is an ongoing reality. At one time we might have referred to them as indigenous peoples and recognized them by their true names, but today, because their homelands have been invaded, with
many people forcibly removed and traditional societies destroyed, they have become part of US
society with names imposed on them; Afro-Caribbeans, Central and South American Indians or Indios, Native Hawaiians, Puerto Ricans, Samoans, Filipinos, African Americans, Asian Americans, Arab Americans, Mexican-Americans, Native Americans, Latinos, and Chicanos. The key to understanding the historic experience and current realities of these groups, is to understand that the way they came to be present and their roles in US society differs significantly from that of Europeans Americans.
[From "Historic Development...]

That (and most of the assertions in the "working paper"] are examples of what the racists we are dealing think in terms of history. I dont know what reference in this one paragraph is more ridiculous (aside from "To do this honestly and authentically...") "At one time we might have referred to them as indigenous peoples" or "they have become part of US society with names imposed on them".

Tan - I cant find the original email, can you reply? The second part of it had a citation I lost and I wanted to dig around.

I agree with Brad. Sites like Occidental Dissent say many interesting things. Then sometimes they say they must do what WORKS. But then, something like the Mantra is considered "pissy" only for the ordinary.

I think the point is that you should be pasting the Mantra at neutral or hostile sites and not at websites that are already firmly in the White Nationalist camp.

"The Asiatic menace is nearly as important to solve as the Jewish problem."

Amen. White nationalists need to discuss this topic more often. We should not let the HBD/Race realists gain the upper hand on this topic. We must lead them away from their destructive libertarian ideas that Asians are an "elite" that we should welcome into our nations.

Tan, thought you might want to see, "The text of the speech given by Geert Wilders to the House of Lords."

I feel certain that Wilders is a Zionist, but it indicates a change in strategy by the politicians. They are less influenced by what people think than our own, if possible.

Another one, Tan:

"Racist" -- A Word Invented by USSR's
Leon Trotsky
by Dustin Stanley

"The word "racist" has for a long time been the single most effective fear-word in the leftist and neoconservative arsenal. For decades, they have successfully used it in the political arena to slander traditionalists, shut down debate, and leave opponents running for cover. In the social arena, they have caused even more damage by using it to brainwash impressionable children and young college students, and to teach people to hate their nation, their cultural traditions, and worst of all, themselves.

What surprisingly remains almost totally undiscussed, even on the hard core traditionalist Right, is the word's origin. Did it come from a liberal sociologist? A 60's Marxist college professor? Perhaps a politician in the Democratic Party? No. It turns out that the word was invented by none other than one of the principal architects of the 74-year Soviet nightmare, the founder and first leader of the infamous Red Army, Leon Trotsky.

Take a look at this document if you would, dear reader." [Continues].

Tan, an excellent article from our British neighbor, Green Arrow. [I'll check to see if the link copied].

http://www.thegreenarrow.co.uk/index.php/writers/arrow-straight/1444-nothing-british-and-conspiracy-theorists

"So let us recreate the path I travelled as I travelled it. I first started digging into David Cameron's origins and I discover that Boy David may or may not be a direct descendant of Moses. I wonder what Moses would say about Boy David deciding to switch his loyalties over to Islam? Then again David is just following orders from an higher authority - The New World Order who chose him to lead the conservatives to destruction.

So it turns out that Cameron's great grandfather was the Polish Jew Arthur Francis Levita who made the family fortune in Banking under the directions of the Rothchilds. David of course is married into the elite and wealthy Jewish Astor family and both families are still heavily involved in finance.
---Skip--
But the facts are this. The Rothchilds and "friends", either own or control most of the banks in the world and have been responsible for almost every war ever fought. Sounds incredible but it is true. They also own most of the worlds media(including REUTERS) and so can control the flow of information and propagate propaganda at will.

Their sole goal and their allied families is complete control of the worlds wealth and power. Elected politicians of The Establishment parties are just the puppets of the real rulers of the world.

Now we must take a trip to Serbia to show an example of how the World Bank/International Monetary Fund that is also owned and controlled by the Rothchilds and "Friends" operates. The IMF requires that nations that it "supports" with "loans" do the following.

1. to sign secret agreements of 111 items

2. in which they agreed to sell off their key assets - water, electric, gas, etc.

3. in which they agreed to take economic steps which are really devastating to the nations involved

4. in which they pay off the politicians billions of dollars to Swiss bank accounts to do this transfer of a countries fixed assets
----Skip--

The government has missed deadlines for cutting state jobs and pledged to start them in April. The government needs to adopt a fiscal responsibility law next month, said IMF mission chief Albert Jaeger, also present at the interview.

Sound familiar? Who owns our utility companies now. Who will own the major assets of Serbia? Not the people but private corporations and who owns those?

And what happens to those brave individuals who try to let the people know the evil that is being carried out by these "Bankers".

Well what happened to Ashley Mote the former MEP who asked the following of the European Union President in 2007. Mote finished up in jail on what he says were trumped up charges and is fighting to clear his name." [Continues at the link].
--------------------

What is happening to Mote is just an example on a global scale of what is happening to each of us individually. The roots for our oppression and for the limitations on our freedoms, whether of speech, press or the pursuit of happiness is within the policies devised by these corruptors. RACISTS! Damn right they are! Against Whites, against freedoms, and against YOU.

Some of our diversity suppliers are not happy that the Tea Party movement is becoming less diverse in thought.

"SPLC’s report, “Rage on the Right,” is not as extensive or derisive of the Tea Party movement as ADL’s earlier “Rage Grows in America: Anti-Government Conspiracies.” But it is a cannonball across the bow of the explosively growing Tea Party movement. It warns leaders not to let the whole truth about international Zionist control and conspiracy take root, or these super powerful Jewish muscle groups will use their influence to inflame Jewish media, the Congress and law enforcement against them."

It is said that there is this RACE problem. They say this RACE problem will be solved when the third world pours into EVERY white country and ONLY into white countries.


The thing is, though, who actually ever says that? I don't think I've ever heard it put that way by any anti-racist or immigration booster.

The mantra itself is good, but it'll lose its effect on your target if there's someone around to make the point I just did above.

The purpose of the mantra is to keep us focused on what's important. It puts anti-White double-standards in terms any person of ordinary intelligence operating in good faith can understand. Quibbles about its phrasing and even challenges to its veracity only invite further exposition and discussion. That's a good thing.

Thanks for demonstrating how it works Armor.
