Calochortus Catalinae

The Hitlerian concept of a musical “racial soul” has gone mainstream, and although the complainant must always be a person of color, the victims are no longer exclusively white. In March, pro-level black lunatic Seren Sensei attacked Bruno Mars (who is Filipino and Puerto Rican) for daring to sing “black” music. And now whites are being told that not only can they not sing “blacks-only” lyrics, they mustn’t even copy-and-paste them.

It’s a hilarious irony: The SJW “punch a Nazi” crowd is mainstreaming Nazi racial theory. Modern leftist racism sees the races in terms of good vs. evil, while white right-wing racists tend to divide the races by high-IQ vs. low-IQ. Leftists don’t see whites as inferior or dumb, but bad. This kind of thinking traces some of its roots to Nation of Islam theology, which teaches that whites are evil beings created by a mad scientist. But this ideology is also Nazi to the core. Yes, the Nazis absolutely did consider many of the world’s races to be intellectually inferior. But Jews were targeted not because they were seen as stupid (that was the charge leveled at Slavs), but because they’re supposedly genetically evil, born with a desire to harm other races. Jews were killed because they were seen as a threat.

Arguably the single most fraudulent claim made by the “never forget” crowd is that once you “dehumanize” a people, it becomes easier to kill them. We saw this idiocy last week in the wake of Trump’s “animals” comment. A thousand never-forgetters crawled out of the woodwork to wail, “Oy, once you compare humans to animals, once you dehumanize them, you make it easy to kill them.” Bullshit. Once you demonize a people, then you make it easy to kill them.

The average human is far more easily moved to murder if he believes he is acting in self-defense against a deviously evil foe.

Every one of the hundreds of articles and op-eds in the mainstream media about how whites are innately bad or harmful, how whites are an oppressive force responsible for all evil in the world, helps create an atmosphere that encourages violent crime against whites. And my biggest fear regarding this kind of leftist Nazism is that it is increasingly unopposed in the West. That’s a huge danger. Safe, mainstream conservatives are allowed to politely rebuke leftist racial extremism, but the actual reverse-negative mirror image of leftist racism—right-wing white racism—is essentially banned (by law in Western Europe and Canada, and by nongovernmental speech regulations here in the States). Now, as I’ve never been shy to say, I strongly dislike white nationalists, white supremacists, and sieg heilers. But one of the reasons I fight for their right to speak is that there needs to be some balance against the leftist Streichers and Rosenbergs. When an extremist ideology is allowed to exist unopposed, it becomes mainstream.

For that reason, we need the right-wing racist nuts as opposition to the left-wing racist nuts. The two extremes should be allowed to battle publicly. The best-case scenario is that the general public, by seeing these cretins face each other on a level field, will understand them for what they are. It’s a better scenario than what’s happening now, as leftist racial theories are increasingly being presented to the public not as one pole on a spectrum, not as one extreme on a scale, but rather as common sense, as truth, as fact, as the norm.

That has to be vigorously opposed. It’s not enough to say, “Oh dear, leftist racism is terrible, but it’s still good and proper to ban rightist racism” (wow, my second Ben Shapiro impression in as many weeks). Let ugly racism on the right freely and openly battle ugly racism on the left. And perhaps more important, for those of us who are not ugly racists of any stripe, we may just have to start engaging in acts of (I hate to use this word) “resistance” that we might find uncomfortable.

It may not seem like a huge deal that a woman, purely because of her skin color, was publicly humiliated and excoriated in front of millions of people for speaking aloud lyrics that she was asked to recite, but it actually kinda is. I don’t care for racial epithets, but I dislike race-based censorship and discrimination more.

So, as much as I hate to admit it, maybe it’s time to say “nigger.”
