01—Intro. Yes, listeners: Radio Derb turned sixteen this week, on Wednesday to be precise. Our first podcast was on May 27th 2004.
That may—I don't know any way to check, but it may—make us the longest continuously-running podcast on the internet. I'm pretty sure we're the longest-running Dissident Right podcast, anyway. So Happy Birthday, Radio Derb! [Clip: More Neil Sedaka.] All right, Neil, all right, that's enough.
Today's podcast is Radio Derb number 742. All 741 previous podcasts are archived at johnderbyshire.com under "Opinion," along with all the transcripts: a total of 481 hours, 31 minutes, and two seconds of hate-filled ranting, for your instruction and enjoyment — nearly three weeks of continuous listening, if you do it all at once. Give it a try!
I know that precise figure because I keep a running log of the podcasts, listing podcast number, date, duration, opening and closing music, number of segments, geniality modifier, and a note if there is anything of interest. I haven't formatted this log as a web page; it's just an Excel spreadsheet. You can probably download it from the link on my Radio Derb web page. If that fails, send me an email care of VDARE.com and I'll email you back with a copy.
You will then be able to satisfy your curiosity as to which has been the longest ever Radio Derb (#502 at 1h6m38s), which adverb has most often modified my geniality ("irrepressibly," ten times), how many times I've signed off with a Jim Croce clip (three), when we first covered the Miss Bumbum Pageant (#467), and so on.
My topics back in May 2004 were: niceness, Iraq, genetically-modified blue roses, angry divorced men, illegal aliens, and Gwyneth Paltrow's baby. Can I today, sixteen years later, squeeze any continuing relevance out of those topics?
Well, a little. Not on niceness, which has been wellnigh outlawed as we snarl and spit at each other across the barricades of the Cold Civil War. Iraq I'd rather not talk about, having initially supported the damn fool war there. By 2004 I was wising up; but I'd still prefer to skip over the whole thing. I anyway don't have a clue what's happening in Iraq currently, and couldn't care less.
Blue roses seem not to have won much of a market share; I can't recall seeing any. Men are still getting shafted by the divorce industry; but we now, after the Great Awokening, understand that men bring it upon themselves with their Toxic Masculinity, so sympathy for them would be hateful.
Illegal aliens seem to be a permanent feature of the landscape, since nobody in authority is interested in enforcing the people's laws; so that at least is still relevant.
The Paltrow baby, a daughter named Apple, was actually born May 14th that year, and so is a couple of weeks older than Radio Derb; but I'm going to wish her Happy Birthday! anyway. The parents, you may recall, consciously uncoupled six years ago.
Well, well, Postumus, the years glide swiftly by. Let's take a glance at what's been gliding by this week.

02—Panic in the park. America's most enduring problem, the problem of the blacks, has been dominating the news this week.
The attitude I bring to these stories is one of weary despair. They are reported and discussed publicly in language that bears very little relation to reality, so that most of what is said and written is worthless. To speak honestly about race is in fact taboo, and deeply shocking to most Americans.
Here's an example. Back in 2016 a black man in Charlotte, North Carolina was shot dead by a cop, also black. There were protests, riots, vandalism, and looting. A local congressman, Robert Pittenger, said the following thing, quote:
The grievance in their minds—the animus, the anger—they hate white people, because white people are successful and they're not.
End quote.
Nailed it, Congressman. But of course, Pittenger was denounced by all the Great and the Good, and to save his career, issued a groveling retraction.
I've been living in America since the second Nixon administration, with some intermissions. For many years I assumed that this clinging to unreality could not be stable; that truth and honesty would eventually prevail; that we'd learn to speak to each other openly and frankly, citizen to citizen.
To my despair and dismay, the opposite thing has happened. As the years pass we drift further and further from reality and truth, deeper and deeper into fantasy and denial. It's very depressing; like being in a plane that's lost all power and is just going down, down, down.
I love this country; I have two kids who will live out their lives here; yet it's hard to see any hope for America when the landscape of social commentary is smothered in shallow lies and infantile delusions.
Well, here was the first episode this week. A professional young white woman took her dog to New York's Central Park. In a secluded area called the Ramble, much favored by bird-watchers, she let her dog off the leash, which she shouldn't have—there are posted signs against it.
A large black man, a bird-watcher, took objection to her breaking the rules. She took objection to his having taken objection. He responded with the words, quote: "Look, if you're going to do what you want, I'm going to do what I want, but you're not going to like it."
Scared, she called the police on her cellphone, telling them a black man was threatening her … except that she didn't say "black," she used the cant descriptor "African American." She seems to be a standard-issue New York City Goodwhite.
The black man had departed without further incident by the time the cops arrived, and they took no action. He had filmed the encounter, though, and the video was posted on social media. The white woman was fired from her job and gave up the dog. She is now probably unemployable.
You get the impression from the video that the woman is somewhat highly-strung, the man somewhat obnoxious. Neither thing is a firing offense, though.
To the main point, she was quite right to be scared. A small white woman, alone in a secluded place with a large black male stranger using threatening words: of course she was scared.
Black men commit sexual assault and rape against white women with such frequency, the federal government ceased publishing the numbers some years ago, when the slide into denial accelerated under the Obama administration.
I am told that the Bureau of Justice Statistics still collects those numbers, but dare not publish them. Still, even with the media trying their best to hide the facts, it's hard not to be aware of them, especially in a big city with lots of blacks and single young white women.
So a young professional woman was justifiably scared. Because it was a black man that caused her to be scared—deliberately, you can't help thinking, based on those words he spoke—the young woman's life has been wrecked.
Like Congressman Pittenger, she has done a full grovel, whining that she is not a racist. It hasn't helped her. Her fellow Goodwhites have expelled her from the charmed circle of right-thinking citizens. She dwells in outer darkness, and will for ever.
This is how we live now.

03—Turbulence aplenty. And then there were—and at the time of recording here, still are—the black riots over a black suspect fatally manhandled by cops in Minneapolis. The suspect, George Floyd, was 46 years old and had a long rap sheet.
On a first glance at what's happening in Minneapolis itself, it looks like a regular black riot, a replay of what we've been seeing over and over since Detroit 53 years ago. So again comes the despair. It seems like nothing ever changes.
Fifty-three years!—five and some decades of pontificating, agonizing, prescribing, legislating, twisting the Constitution into pretzels in efforts to quell the rage that Congressman Pittenger identified so accurately. Fifty-three years, untold billions of dollars, endless repetitive cant prescriptions that are tried, and tried, and tried, and tried yet again, but get us nowhere at all. "Let's fix the schools!" "Save the black family!" "End institutional racism!"
Nineteen sixty-seven, Detroit; 2020, Minneapolis. Fifty-three years from now, in 2073, will some other American city be going up in flames so blacks can vent their rage at being a failed race? Will nothing ever change?
On closer inspection, there are some key differences between then and now. The one I've mostly been noticing is that a high proportion of the protestors, many of the rioters, and even a few of the opportunistic looters, are white. This is almost as much an Antifa riot as a black riot.
Where the protesting has metastasized to other cities — we had a modest riot in New York Thursday evening—the activists seem to be majority white, with white females strongly represented.
I naturally want to ask these fired-up white anarchists where they were in July 2017 when Justine Damond, a white woman, was shot by a black cop for no reason at all, also in Minneapolis. The cop is currently serving a 12-year sentence for 3rd-degree murder. Yes, I know: there was a vigil in Ms Damond's honor, and a public memorial service. I don't recall any rocks getting thrown, though, or any precinct houses being burned down.
A few weeks ago in this podcast I was cheering on the armed white citizens at the Michigan state Capitol, protesting that state's crazy lockdown rules. Those citizens were, I said, a hopeful sign that we have not yet altogether lost our turbulence.
Well, there's been turbulence aplenty in Minneapolis this week. Most of it was just blacks doing their black thing, which I suppose they always will. A lot, though, was white radicals venting their anger at the Man.
This seems nuts to me. As Ramzpaul famously told a bunch of these anarchists back in 2017, "You are the Man."
If "the Man" means all the power centers of American society—Harvard University, the New York Times, the social-media billionaires, the law schools, every corporation's Human Resources Department—then the Man believes in everything the white anarchists believe in: Institutional Racism, Toxic Masculinity, White Privilege, the whole package.
So … what are the anarchists protesting about? I think the impulse is totalitarian. They know there are still some pockets of resistance to their ideology, and the knowledge enrages them. Enemies of the people, and that certainly includes white cops who manhandle black perps—not to mention white women who call the cops on threatening black men—must be hunted down and destroyed, to the last one.
Why are white women so prominent in these riots, though? I generally close gloomy segments like this one by asking rhetorically: "What the hell is the matter with white people?" Fish gotta swim, birds gotta fly, and—as an elderly Jewish friend of mine is wont to observe resignedly—shvartzes gotta shvartz; but what's with all this white hatred of one's own race, one's own ancestors, one's own culture?
Watching the video clips of this week's eruptions, I think I'll change that closing question to: "What's wrong with white women?"

04—Peak hypocrisy? As our society sinks ever deeper into reality-denial, the level of hypocrisy rises to ever new heights.
If that Central Park incident had never been recorded, the white woman never publicly shamed, might that same woman on Thursday evening have been down in Union Square with Antifa shouting "No justice, no peace!" and "F*** the police!"? She certainly might. It would be rank hypocrisy on her part; but hypocrisy is now so normal, I doubt she'd notice.
Every so often I see some Goodwhite or nonwhite talking head on TV telling me sternly that "Nobody is above the law," usually in relation to something President Trump has said or done. The thought that crosses my mind every time is that there ought to be some kind of international trophy for brazen, shameless hypocrisy that we could award to the speaker.
Both our big political parties, with a handful of brave but despised and marginalized exceptions like Rep. Steve King, want illegal aliens to be above the law—to be left alone, or actually subsidized, rather than prosecuted or deported.
Antifa thugs control the streets of major cities, and do as they please, flagrantly ignoring the law; nobody prosecutes them. Citizens who try to stand up to them are prosecuted, and dealt with harshly.
Now, under cover of the coronavirus epidemic, and propelled by a tailwind of progressive sentiment against incarceration, felons are being released from prison early.
Stories about felons thus released who promptly return to their life of crime are now so frequent, news outlets probably have the headlines set up as single-key macros. Googling to find such a story, so I can add an illustrative link to the Radio Derb transcript, I found one in less than thirty seconds.
"Nobody is above the law"? It is to laugh. The law in America is just a sad joke, when it isn't an instrument of totalitarian repression.
The other big zone of hypocrisy is education. Standardized tests—every single one that anyone has ever been able to devise—consistently, stubbornly show race differences in mental ability. That's way too much reality for 21st-century Western sensibilities, so standardized tests have to go.
This is playing out in New York City as a big push by the communist mayor, Bill de Blasio, and his Hispanic-supremacist Schools Chancellor, Richard Carranza, to eliminate the Specialized High Schools Admission Test. That's a standardized exam for 8th and 9th graders. Those who pass are admitted to one of eight specialized public high schools: Brooklyn Tech, Bronx High School of Science, Stuyvesant High, and five others.
Would you be surprised to learn that Mayor de Blasio's son Dante graduated from Brooklyn Tech? Or that Chancellor Carranza, when Superintendent of San Francisco schools, sent his daughter to one of that city's specialized high schools? Surprised? Of course not.
The late Joe Sobran famously said that, quote:
In their mating and migratory habits, liberals are indistinguishable from members of the Ku Klux Klan.
End quote.
Something similar applies to their choice of school for their kids.
Now I can offer you my Least Surprising Story of the Week, also from New York City ed-biz. The featured person here is Josh Wallack, who is one of Chancellor Carranza's Deputy Chancellors. Mr Wallack heads the Office of Student Enrollment for New York city schools, which, quote from the Department of Education website:
manages … efforts to advance school diversity and equity.
End quote.
Mr Wallack lives in Brooklyn, in a district whose schools are "unscreened," which I think means open admissions: if you live in the district, you go to the school.
That didn't appeal to Mr Wallack. He's sending his son to a competitive middle school across the river in Manhattan. The student body is majority Ice People—whites and Asians.
The New York Post reports a local activist as saying, quote: "The hypocrisy is just unbelievable. Truly unbelievable."
I beg to differ, Ma'am. I have no difficulty believing it, none at all.

05—Riots and elections. Returning to the riots and protests in Minneapolis and elsewhere, there is some discussion on the blogs about how these disturbances will affect November's Presidential election.
Big civil disorders like this, with underclass blacks running wild, looting and burning, seem historically to have favored strong law'n'order candidates. I mentioned the 1967 Detroit riots back there. They happened a few days after a major black riot in Newark, New Jersey and were followed by the archetypal Long Hot Summer.
Then the following Spring saw the nationwide riots in reaction to the killing of Martin Luther King. And then, that November … Richard Nixon got elected.
On that model, it's been argued that the 2014 riots in Ferguson, Missouri and the 2015 riots in Baltimore may have helped Donald Trump get elected in 2016.
So, will what we are seeing now—especially if this is just the prelude to another Long Hot Summer—will these events help Trump in November?
Well, we can hope; though it seems wrong to think of all this mayhem and destruction as something positive. And indeed, electors under representative democracy have usually voted against widespread public disorder, or the recent memory of it.
I don't know, though. Ferguson … Baltimore … 2016 … sure; but we are four years more woke now that we were in 2016, with a big new cohort of voters who get their notions of reality from social media. Just look at those fired-up young white rioters. Try talking to pretty much any white American under thirty. Nixon's "Silent Majority" they ain't.
Meanwhile, the oldest voter demographic, more disposed to favor social order over so-called "social justice," has been dropping off the other end of the demographic chart, with an assist from the geezer-hostile coronavirus.
And then there are the blacks. Their lack of enthusiasm for Mrs Clinton in 2016 is generally given as one of the main reasons Trump won. They already like Joe Biden for his eight years' service with Barack Obama. If he names a black as his Vice-Presidential choice, blacks will be all in for Joe.
I've been arguing for Joe to pick Amy Klobuchar as his veep. She is smart, capable, politically astute, and she has two X-chromosomes. Stodgy, dull capability; that's the way to go. That's the way to win back some working-class white Trump voters. So I have been arguing.
The Minneapolis riots throw a spanner in the works. Not only do they strengthen the case for a black veep choice, they cast a shadow on Senator Klobuchar.
See, before she was a US Senator, the lady was a county attorney, in charge of prosecutions for the city of … wait for it … Minneapolis. Uh-oh.
Worse yet, quoting here from an article in The Week, May 28th, quote:
While in that position, Klobuchar declined to prosecute multiple police officers cited for excessive force.
End quote.
It gets worse. Among those police officers the lady declined to prosecute was Derek Chauvin, the very officer seen in this week's video clip kneeling on George Floyd's neck. Officer Chauvin had at least ten conduct complaints against him before he was fired this week after nineteen years on the force. Some of those complaints, including one where he shot a perp, were prior to January 2007, when Mrs Klobuchar became a Senator. And she didn't prosecute!
Now of course there are all sorts of reasons a complaint against a cop might not lead to the cop being prosecuted. I imagine very few do, although I can't find numbers for the Minneapolis force.
Given the openings Senator Klobuchar offers to GOP election propaganda, and black disillusionment with Joe Biden if he picks her, the lady is looking like a liability. I say she is toast, V.P.-wise.
That could mean disaster for America. As progressive as she may be, Senator Klobuchar is at least halfway sane, and seems not to hate white people. You can't say either thing about Kamala Harris, or Stacey Abrams, or Michelle Obama, or any of the other nonwhite females on Joe's veep list.
Given that Biden still has a healthy lead over Trump in national polls, and given further that five'll get ya eight Biden won't complete his first term, we may very well have a crazy black female in the White House four years from now. Heaven help us!

06—Miscellany. And now, our closing miscellany of brief items.
Imprimis: Presumptive Democratic Presidential nominee Joe Biden continues to amuse and entertain us.
Wednesday this week, in a livestream chat with the Governor of Pennsylvania, Joe audibly cut the cheese. Listen. [Clip: "You don't have to cut those teachers and firefighters, police officers, cut critical healthcare programs, or stop work on roads and bridges frrrrrt …"]
I'm smirking here, but there's a twinge of sympathy behind my smirk. Joe is two and a half years older than I am, but I already own a lapel decoration bearing the legend OLD FART, gifted to me by my daughter.
Furthermore, I learned at an early age John Aubrey's story about Queen Elizabeth the First and the Earl of Oxford, which I'll leave you to look up for yourselves. That story inclines one to a lifelong tolerance for momentary lapses of this particular type.
And when all's said and done, this tiny incident has no bearing on the thing we really want to know about Joe Biden, which is: Can he squeak out a win this November?
[Permalink]
Item: Under Shariah law a man can divorce his wife by uttering the words "I divorce thee" three times. Some years ago, when electronic communications became commonplace, the question arose: Can this be done via email? Islamic theologians had to scrutinize the sacred scriptures and issue a ruling.
A similar conundrum, although this one has nothing particular to do with Islam, came up in Singapore this month. A chap named Punithan Genasan was sentenced to death for dealing drugs, which Singapore takes very seriously. The sentence was delivered by the judge to Mr Genasan via a ZOOM video-call. Singapore has a high coronavirus rate and is strictly limiting all gatherings, including those in courthouses.
Was this acceptable? Opinions differ.
Radio Derb is a strong supporter of capital punishment. Indeed, we are the standard-bearer for the doctrine I call "One Strike and You're Dead." Steal a box of cigarillos from the convenience store, go to the chair. Instead of you smoking them, we'll smoke you. In Singapore, execution is actually by hanging, but the principle could be the same.
We therefore applaud the Singaporeans for bringing a new speed and efficiency to the judicial process, and urge Mr Genasan to accept the verdict of the court in a proper spirit of Oriental fatalism.
[Permalink]
Item: Finally, in regard to the US Postal Service: my impression is these couriers have gotten much less efficient at the swift completion of their appointed rounds since this virus came up. There is, though, just as your mother told you, always someone worse off than yourself.
So spare a thought for the relatives of Private Harry Cole of the British Army's Suffolk Regiment. Private Cole's last letter to them has just been delivered after being in transit for eighty years.
Private Cole wrote the letter during his regiment's retreat to Dunkirk in 1940. He was killed in action before he could mail it. It languished in German and British files for eighty years until an archivist, who by chance lives in the same village as Private Cole's relatives, spotted it and delivered it to them.
I shall never again grumble about my subscription issue of The New Criterion showing up a week late.

07—Signoff. That's it, ladies and gents. Not much to be cheerful about in the public sphere. As Daniel Horowitz has pointed out, that sphere is currently an unholy mix of anarchy and tyranny: rioters and looters running wild without restraint here, bossy governors and mayors enforcing strict lockdowns there.
All the more reason to cherish the private sphere. I shall be celebrating my little corner of it next week with my own 75th birthday—I mean, my actual birthday, separate from Radio Derb's.
An ingenious friend has composed a piece of music covering both birthdays, the 75th and the 16th. Severely edited quote from him:
I managed … to make the main tempo 75 per minute for the quarter note. For the slowed-down portion, I was able to make the dotted half note 16 per minute.
End quote.
My friend, who is way better versed in musicology than I am, actually wrote much more than that; but that is the only part of it I understood. So now prepare yourself for a musicologically sophisticated treat.
There will be more from Radio Derb next week.

[Excerpted from the latest Radio Derb, now available exclusively through VDARE.com]
America's most enduring problem, the problem of the blacks, has been dominating the news this week.
The attitude I bring to these news stories is one of weary despair. They are reported and discussed publicly in language that bears very little relation to reality, so that most of what is said and written is worthless. To speak honestly about race is in fact taboo, and genuinely shocking, for most Americans.
Here's an example. Back in 2016 a black man in Charlotte, North Carolina was shot dead by a cop, also black. There were protests, riots, vandalism, and looting. A Republican local congressman, Robert Pittenger, said the following thing:
The grievance in their minds—the animus, the anger—they hate white people, because white people are successful and they're not. Congressman: Charlotte protesters ‘hate white people because white people are successful’, by Peter Holley, Washington Post, September 23, 2016
Nailed it, Congressman. But of course, Pittenger was denounced by all the Great and the Good, and to save his career, issued a groveling retraction.
I've been living in America since the second Nixon administration, with some intermissions. For many years I assumed that this clinging to unreality could not be stable; that truth and honesty would eventually prevail; that we'd learn to speak to each other openly and frankly, citizen to citizen.
To my dismay and despair, the opposite has happened. As the years pass, we drift further and further from reality and truth, deeper and deeper into fantasy and denial. It's very depressing; like being in a plane that's lost all power and is just going down, down, down.
I love this country; I have two kids who will live out their lives here. Yet it's hard to see any hope for America when the landscape of social commentary is smothered in shallow lies and infantile delusions.
First episode: Panic In the Park
A young professional white woman took her dog to New York's Central Park. In a secluded area called the Ramble, much favored by birdwatchers, she let her dog off the leash, which she shouldn't have—there are posted signs against it.
A large black man, a birdwatcher, took objection to her breaking the rules. She took objection to his having taken objection. He responded with the words: "Look, if you're going to do what you want, I'm going to do what I want, but you're not going to like it."
Scared, she called the police on her cellphone, telling them a black man was threatening her…except that she didn't say "black," she used the cant descriptor "African American." She seems to be a standard-issue New York City Goodwhite [Amy Cooper and Christian Cooper: A Confrontation in the Park, New York Times, May 28, 2020].
The black man had departed without further incident by the time the cops arrived, and they took no action. He had filmed the encounter, though, and the video was posted on social media. The white woman was fired from her job and the dog was confiscated. She is now probably unemployable.
You get the impression from the video that the woman is somewhat highly strung, the man somewhat obnoxious. Neither thing is a firing offense, though.
To the main point, she was quite right to be scared. A small white woman, alone in a secluded place with a large black male stranger using threatening words: Of course she was scared.
Black men commit sexual assault and rape against white women with such frequency that the federal government ceased publishing the numbers some years ago, when the slide into denial accelerated under the Obama administration.
I am told that the Bureau of Justice Statistics still collects those numbers, but dare not publish them. Still, even with the Main Stream Media trying their best to hide the facts, it's hard not to be aware of them—especially in a big city with lots of blacks and single young white women.
So this young professional woman was justifiably scared. But because it was a black man that caused her to be scared—deliberately, you can't help thinking, based on those words he spoke—the young woman's life has been wrecked.
Like Congressman Pittenger, she has done a full grovel, whining that she is not a racist. Of course it hasn't helped her. Her fellow Goodwhites have expelled her from the charmed circle of right-thinking citizens. She dwells in outer darkness, and will forever.
This is how white Americans live now: in fear. Land of the Free!
Second episode: Mayhem In Minneapolis
And then there were—and as of Friday night, still are—the black riots over a suspect fatally manhandled by cops in Minneapolis.
On a first glance at what's happening in Minneapolis itself, it looks like a regular black riot, a replay of what we've been seeing over and over since Detroit 53 years ago.
So again comes the despair. It seems like nothing ever changes.
Fifty-three years!—five and some decades of pontificating, agonizing, prescribing, legislating, twisting the Constitution into pretzels in efforts to quell the rage that Congressman Pittenger identified so accurately. Fifty-three years, untold billions of dollars, endless repetitive cant prescriptions ("Let's fix the schools!" "Save the black family!" "End institutional racism!") that are tried, and tried, and tried, and tried yet again, but get us nowhere at all.
1967, Detroit; 2020, Minneapolis. Fifty-three years from now, in 2073, will some other American city be going up in flames so blacks can vent their rage at being a failed race? Will nothing ever change?
On closer inspection, though, there are some key differences between then and now.
The one I've mostly been noticing is that a high proportion of the protesters, many of the rioters, and even a few of the opportunistic looters, are white. This is almost as much an Antifa riot as a black riot.
Where the protesting has metastasized to other cities—we had a modest riot in New York Thursday evening [ At least 70 arrested at NYC protest over death of George Floyd, NY Post, May 28, 2020]—the activists seem to be majority white, with white females strongly represented.
Can't load tweet https://twitter.com/SSMoghadam/status/1266519350787227648: Sorry, that page does not exist
I naturally want to ask these fired-up white anarchists where they were in July 2017 when Justine Damond, a white woman, was shot by a black cop for no reason at all. The cop is currently serving a 12-year sentence for 3rd-degree murder.
Yes, I know: There was a vigil in Ms. Damond's honor, and a public memorial service. I don't recall any rocks getting thrown, though, or any precinct houses being burned down.
A few weeks ago in this podcast I was cheering on the armed white citizens at the Michigan state Capitol, protesting that state's crazy lockdown rules. Those citizens were, I said, a hopeful sign that we have not yet altogether lost our turbulence.
Well, there's been turbulence aplenty in Minneapolis this week. Most of it was just blacks doing their black thing, which I suppose they always will. A lot, though, was white radicals venting their anger at the Man.
This seems nuts to me. As Ramzpaul famously told a bunch of these anarchists back in 2017, "You are the Man."
If "the Man" means all the power centers of American society—Harvard University, the New York Times, the social-media billionaires, the law schools, every corporation's Human Resources Department—then the Man believes everything the white anarchists believe: Institutional Racism, Toxic Masculinity, White Privilege, the whole package.
So…what are the anarchists protesting about?
I think the impulse is Totalitarian. They know there are still some pockets of resistance to their ideology, and the knowledge enrages them. Enemies of the people, and that certainly includes white cops who manhandle black perps—not to mention white women who call the cops on threatening black men—must be hunted down and destroyed, to the last one.
Why are white women so prominent in these riots, though? What's with all this white hatred of one's own race, one's own ancestors, one's own culture?
There is some discussion on the blogs about how these disturbances will affect November's Presidential election.
Big civil disorders like this, with underclass blacks running wild, looting and burning, seem historically to have favored strong law'n'order candidates. I mentioned the 1967 Detroit riots back there. They happened a few days after a major black riot in Newark, New Jersey [Five Days of Unrest That Shaped, and Haunted, Newark, by Rick Rojas and Khorri Atkinson, NYT, July 11, 2017] and were followed by the archetypal Long Hot Summer.
Then the following Spring saw the nationwide riots in reaction to the killing of Martin Luther King. And then, that November…Richard Nixon got elected.
On that model, it's been argued that the 2014 riots in Ferguson, Missouri and the 2015 riots in Baltimore may have helped Donald Trump get elected in 2016.
So, will what we are seeing now—especially if this is just the prelude to another Long Hot Summer—will these events help Trump in November?
Well, we can hope. I don't know, though. Ferguson…Baltimore…2016… sure; but we are four years more Woke now that we were in 2016, with a big new cohort of voters who get their notions of reality from social media.
Just look at those fired-up young white rioters. Try talking to pretty much any white American under thirty. Nixon's "Silent Majority" they ain't.
Meanwhile, the oldest voter demographic, more disposed to favor social order over so-called "social justice," has been dropping off the other end of the demographic chart, with an assist from the geezer-hostile coronavirus.
And then there are the blacks. Their lack of enthusiasm for Mrs. Clinton in 2016 is generally given as one of the main reasons Trump won. They already like Joe Biden for his eight years' service with Barack Obama. If he names a black as his Vice-Presidential choice, blacks will be all in for Joe.
I've been arguing for Joe to pick Amy Klobuchar as his Veep. She is smart, capable, politically astute, and she has two X-chromosomes. Stodgy, dull capability; that's the way to go. That's the way to win back some working-class white Trump voters. So I have been arguing.
But the Minneapolis riots throw a spanner in the works. Not only do they strengthen the case for a black Veep choice, they cast a shadow on Senator Klobuchar.
See, before she was a US Senator, the lady was a county attorney, in charge of prosecutions for the city of…wait for it…Minneapolis.
Uh-oh.
Worse yet, quoting from an article in The Week,
While in that position, Klobuchar declined to prosecute multiple police officers cited for excessive force. Amy Klobuchar didn't prosecute officer at center of George Floyd's death, left case to successor, May 28, 2020
And it gets worse. Among those police officers the lady declined to prosecute was Derek Chauvin, the very officer seen in this week's video clip kneeling on George Floyd's neck.
Officer Chauvin had at least ten conduct complaints against him before he was fired this week after nineteen years on the force. Some of those complaints, including one where he shot a perp, were prior to January 2007, when Mrs. Klobuchar became a Senator. And she didn't prosecute!
Now of course there are all sorts of reasons a complaint against a cop might not lead to the cop being prosecuted. I imagine very few do, although I can't find numbers for the Minneapolis force.
For purposes of GOP election propaganda, though, and black disillusionment with Joe Biden, Senator Klobuchar is looking like a liability.
I say she is toast, V.P.-wise.
That could mean disaster for America. As Progressive as she may be, Senator Klobuchar is at least halfway sane, and seems not to hate white people. You can't say either thing about Kamala Harris, or Stacey Abrams, or Michelle Obama, or any of the other nonwhite females on Joe's Veep list.
Given that Biden still has a healthy lead over Trump in national polls [Poll: Biden leads Trump by 11 points nationally, by Jonathan Easley, The Hill, May 27, 2020], and given further that six'll get ya eight Biden won't complete his first term, we may very well have a crazy black female in the White House four years from now.
Heaven help us!

News Analysis: A study in contrast: Trump, Biden respond to Minneapolis crisis
By CHRIS MEGERIAN, JANET HOOK
MAY 29, 202011:18 AM
WASHINGTON — President Trump saw burning buildings and decided to light another match. Joe Biden said he would bring a hose, then fix the foundations once the fire was out.
The crisis in Minneapolis, where protests are raging after a black man, George Floyd, was killed by white police officers, provided a window into how each man plans to campaign for the presidency and lead the country if elected in November.
Floyd was killed Monday while handcuffed and lying on the ground as one of the officers, Derek Chauvin, kneeled on his neck for several minutes. Chauvin was arrested on Friday and charged with third-degree murder and manslaughter; charges are expected against the three other officers involved, the county attorney in Minneapolis said.
The incident, which was captured on a widely circulated video, resurfaced the country’s unsolved struggles with race, policing and inequality, the kind of combustible situation that can confront a president at a moment’s notice and threaten to spiral out of control.
Trump and Biden have both condemned Floyd’s death, but the similarities ended there as they approached the case and the subsequent protests in radically different ways.
Trump’s response was characteristically inconsistent and inflammatory. He first expressed support for a federal civil rights investigation of the officers, then suggested that looters could be shot as the National Guard was deployed to the city.
Facing a backlash for his comments, Trump blamed his enemies for misinterpreting them and said he did not want the situation to “descend further into lawless anarchy and chaos” as he urged the Justice Department to complete a swift investigation.
Meanwhile, Biden sought to demonstrate the steadiness and empathy that he hopes voters will welcome after four years of Trump’s caustic and tumultuous presidency.
“I think the whole country, the world, see a contrast in Biden and Trump — a contrast that I hope will not be lost on the American people,” said Rep. James E. Clyburn, a South Carolina Democrat who is one of the former vice president’s most prominent black supporters. “Biden has demonstrated what I have said about him for a long time — he knows us and we know him.”
Trump has low approval ratings among black voters, who have been repelled by his history of racist statements and his contention that there were “very fine people on both sides” of white supremacist protests in Charlottesville, Va., three years ago. But his campaign has been trying to boost his numbers in hopes of limiting Biden’s advantage, and Trump said he was troubled by the video of a police officer kneeling on Floyd as he begged for air and became unconscious.
“That was a very bad thing that I saw,” he said on Thursday. The Justice Department is conducting a civil rights investigation.
Later, however, as demonstrations in the city became more violent and protesters set buildings, including a police precinct, afire, Trump’s focus shifted, and he lashed out on Twitter.
“These THUGS are dishonoring the memory of George Floyd, and I won’t let that happen,” he said. “Just spoke to [Minnesota] Governor Tim Walz and told him that the Military is with him all the way. Any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts. Thank you!”
Twitter affixed a warning label to the tweet saying the message was “glorifying violence.” The suggestion that looters might be shot echoed some of the country’s most traumatic experiences with urban riots.
“The thuggification of black folk is a standard trope,” said Carol Anderson, chair of African American studies at Emory University in Atlanta. “That’s the narrative that you’re seeing now.”

It is China that gave us the latest Corona virus , and this is not the first version of the flu that came from China , whether it is the misnamed Spanish Flu , or the flu outbreaks in the United States in 1957 and 1968 .
I was not around for the flu pandemic that killed over 100,000 Americans in the late 50s ( known at the time as the `` Asian flu '' ) but I was around , and a vunerable child in the 1968 Hong Kong Flu pandemic .
There there was no shutdown , there @ @ @ @ @ @ @ brother and an uncle about the 1968 pandemic and none recall it .
It was from China though .
We don ’ t know the Patient Zero of these earlier pandemics , but for the current pandemic we do know the Chinese Virus Patient Zero , and it ’ s an immigrant of some sort .
Press reporting does not say if this immigrant was legal or illegal , so I will go with illegal because that is something the Lying Press would cover up .
It started in a Sanctuary State , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , mostly through aliens , legal and illegal .
Not just in New York , the center of the China Plague , but also though presumably illegal alien field hands in the Pacific Northwest , not just Washington , but the other Sanctuary State , Oregon .

For weeks they ’ d heard reports from family and on Chinese social media about a virus terrorizing Central China , where several had relatives .
Now the new coronavirus had landed at their doorstep .
On @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the nation ’ s first confirmed case of what would come to be called COVID-19 : in a Snohomish County man who had returned from Wuhan , the epicenter of the crisis .

It is China that gave us the latest Corona virus, and this is not the first version of the flu that came from China, whether it is the misnamed Spanish Flu, or the flu outbreaks in the United States in 1957 and 1968. I was not around for the flu pandemic that killed over 100,000 Americans in the late 50s (known at the time as the "Asian flu") but I was around, and a vulnerable child in the 1968 Hong Kong Flu pandemic.
There was no shutdown, there was nothing. I quizzed my older brother and an uncle about the 1968 pandemic and none recall it. It was from China though.
We don’t know the Patient Zero of these earlier pandemics, but for the current pandemic we do know the Chinese Virus Patient Zero, and it’s an immigrant of some sort. Press reporting does not say if this immigrant was legal or illegal, so I will go with illegal because that is something the Lying Press would cover up. It started in a Sanctuary State, Washington, and spread throughout the nation, mostly through aliens, legal and illegal. Not just in New York, the center of the China Plague, but also though presumably illegal alien field hands in the Pacific Northwest, not just Washington, but the other Sanctuary State, Oregon. Lesson learned, border control is plague control.
For weeks they’d heard reports from family and on Chinese social media about a virus terrorizing Central China, where several had relatives. Now the new coronavirus had landed at their doorstep. On Jan. 21, Washington state had announced the nation’s first confirmed case of what would come to be called COVID-19: in a Snohomish County man who had returned from Wuhan, the epicenter of the crisis. “What China goes through, we will all go through,” Wang, principal of the Sammamish Chinese School, later said. [How The Coronavirus Overwhelmed Washington State’s Early Efforts To Contain It, by Daniel Gilbert and David Gutman, Seattle Times, April 5, 2020]
Truer words were never spoken: What China goes through, gets brought to our shores, including diseases.
And it is not just the Chinese bringing disease and economic collapse due to politically contrived panic, it is the usual Hispanic illegal aliens from south of the border. Our Lugenpresse, of course, does not specifically identify the disease spreaders as aliens, legal or illegal, just by words designed to deceive, just “seasonal workers” as if that did not mean illegal aliens working in jobs obtained by fraud, deceit, or connivance with their employer, the Slave Power at Townsend Farms.
The state of Oregon reported three more deaths and 49 new confirmed cases of COVID-19 on Thursday. The state’s death toll now stands at 151. Among the newly confirmed cases are seasonal workers at Townsend Farms operations in Multnomah and Washington counties. Public health investigators with Oregon Health Authority and Multnomah and Washington counties say the outbreak currently affects a total of 48 of about 350 people who arrived in the Portland metro area on May 23 and 24 to harvest fruit from Townsend-owned sites in Fairview and Cornelius. The workers are believed to have been exposed to the virus prior to coming to Oregon. [COVID-19 Outbreak Linked To Seasonal Workers In Multnomah, Washington Counties, Portland Tribune, May 28, 2020]
There we have it, China, and some nation likely south of the border, is not only the original source of the Chinese Flu, but illegal aliens, likely from Mexico or Central America, are spreading the Chinese Plague anew. Note the dates, months after the initial Chinese Virus infection landed, other illegal aliens are still spreading it.
While I can applaud the Trump Administration for closing the borders and immediately deporting illegal aliens caught at the border back to Mexico and Canada, and closing the border mostly to legal workers, sadly, some of the spreaders may be H-2B agricultural workers. But what is missing is that ICE SVU is failing to do interior enforcement and work-site raids to help shut down the spreading of the Wuhan Virus in the interior of the United States.
It is time for the border shutdown to expand to the interior. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has a responsibility during this pandemic panic to use this opportunity to crack down on illegal aliens inside the nation. Time to whip ICE SVU into action to save Americans from infection by an imported disease spread by imported aliens.

If you want more riots, how you get more riots is by not punishing rioters.

vdare--2020-05-30--Even Right Abandoning Accused Minneapolis Cop—But They Shouldn't

So , there we have it , Con , Inc. , AltRight , Civic Nationalists , and the NRA spokesmouth Dana Loesch are attacking hero white cop Derek Chauvin , he who bravely found , fought with , and successfully arrested violent Black career criminal George Floyd .
Whether it is one of the most censored men on the internet , Jared Taylor , who called Chauvin a psychopath on his latest podcast , to Rush Limbaugh calling Chauvin a killer , to normally levelheaded vlogger Donut Operator , a former cop who usually defends cops based on evidence , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for the rioting based on nothing more than panic , to Mike Penovich of The Daily Shoah who called Chauvin a killer , the right has lost its collective mind .
So let this be a full throated defense of Derek Chauvin , who is as innocent as George Zimmerman , Darren Wilson , and Daniel Pantaleo .
First , and foremost in this , like Eric Garner , pictured right , George Floyd was a large and fundamentally unhealthy black man with a penchant for crime and violence .
George was a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bad end , and he got it .
George ignored the 70s cop show , Baretta , theme song ’ s advice , don ’ t do the crime if you can ’ t do the time ; he died because of his bad decision making , just as Trayvon Martin , Eric Garner , and Michael Brown did .
He rolled the dice and it came up snake eyes .
And as the Eric Garner case , there is no basis for any criminal charge .
The autopsy says no crime was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of anything wrong with his neck—Chauvin was charged just because he was white .
Floyd was fundamentally unhealthy and had illegal drugs in his system .
Not a good idea to then go commit a crime , get arrested , and fight the police , both before and after being handcuffed .
There is also a rumor that he was conscious in the ambulance and slipped his handcuffs in an escape attempt .
Now , the Lugenpresse is making much of the fact that Chauvin had his knee on George ’ s neck @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , as if that is something bad or unusual .
I tell you kneeling on the head or neck is quite common and useful physical control technique .
It is also used daily in hundreds of arrests .
The technique is quite common when making arrests and the criminals , especially black criminals , often fight back even after being handcuffed .
And this is what happened .
Police officers do this for two main reasons , first , as in this case , Floyd resumed fighting after being handcuffed and had to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the neck was a precautionary measure meant to keep him down so he did not attack again .
One can see examples of this if you watch Cops or Live PD .
Criminals even try and run away while handcuffed .
They also slip the handcuffs and escape .
Secondly , Chauvin and his fellow officers were surrounded by a hostile mob of blacks who by their proximity and common black behavior , were likely to attack the officers and help Floyd escape .
Chauvin had to keep his knee on Floyd , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the growing , hostile , and potentially violent crowd .
Crowds commonly attack police and interfere with arrests .
Maintaining control over the suspect is very important in these situations .
Thirdly , criminals often feign injury , especially now claiming they can ’ t breathe in part to help set up the loosening or removal of handcuffs so they can escape .
Even the criminal complaint , note this is not a Grand Jury indictment , which tells us much , the Hennepin County Attoreny ’ s Office was afraid to take @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is required by the Constitution , admits that Floyd was violently resisting before and after handcuffing .
The complaint says Floyd initially resisted being handcuffed when officers sought to arrest him on suspicion of trying to pay for a purchase with a counterfeit $ 20 bill , but he then became compliant .
He sat on the ground at officer Thomas Lane ’ s direction while Lane asked him questions .
When Lane and officer J. Alexander Kueng tried to walk Floyd to a squad car , however , the complaint says that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fell to the ground , and told the officers he was claustrophobic.
” Floyd allegedly continued to intentionally fall down and refuse to stand still to avoid entering the car , but the officers eventually got him into a passenger seat of the vehicle .
At 8:19 p.m. , Chauvin pulled Floyd out of the car and brought him to the ground , facedown and handcuffed , the complaint says .
Kueng allegedly held Floyd ’ s back , Lane held his legs and Chauvin put his left knee near Floyd ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in position while Floyd said he could not breathe , according to the complaint .
“ You are talking fine , ” they allegedly told him as he moved back and forth .
This is quite similar to the Garner case , he complained he could not breathe , which is not factual—if you can talk , you can breathe .
You might be having trouble breathing , but you ’ re still breathing .
Garner was claiming he couldn ’ t breathe , but also was physically and verbally resisting arrest .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ criminals to resist initial handcuffing and detention , then play to the crowd in an attempt to intimidate the police with the subsequent threat of attack by the crowd , and it is usually black criminals who do this , and black crowds who attack the police .

He was arrested based on a Criminal Complaint , which is generally only used when the suspect is agreeing to plead guilty .

This is part of the war on whites being waged by most of the American government , at all levels , State , local , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and just as President Trump has been a victim , as George Zimmerman was a victim , so is the latest white victim , Derek Chauvin .

So, there we have it, Con, Inc., AltRight, Civic Nationalists, and the NRA spokesmouth Dana Loesch are attacking hero white cop Derek Chauvin, he who bravely found, fought with, and successfully arrested violent Black career criminal George Floyd. Whether it is one of the most censored men on the internet, Jared Taylor, who called Chauvin a psychopath on his latest podcast, to Rush Limbaugh calling Chauvin a killer, to normally levelheaded vlogger Donut Operator, a former cop who usually defends cops based on evidence, but who blasted Chauvin and blamed him for the rioting based on nothing more than panic, to Mike Penovich of The Daily Shoah who called Chauvin a killer, the right has lost its collective mind.
Heroic Victim Of Anti-White Hysteria Derek Chauvin
So let this be a full throated defense of Derek Chauvin, who is as innocent as George Zimmerman, Darren Wilson, and Daniel Pantaleo.
First, and foremost in this, like Eric Garner, pictured right, George Floyd was a large and fundamentally unhealthy black man with a penchant for crime and violence. George was a career criminal who was riding for a bad end, and he got it. George ignored the 70s cop show, Baretta, theme song’s advice, don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time; he died because of his bad decision making, just as Trayvon Martin, Eric Garner, and Michael Brown did. He rolled the dice and it came up snake eyes.
And as in the Eric Garner case, there is no basis for any criminal charge. The autopsy says no crime was committed, because Floyd did not die of anything wrong with his neck—Chauvin was charged just because he was white.
Meantime, the Hennepin County Medical Examiner announced it has made “no physical findings that support a diagnosis of traumatic asphyxia or strangulation.” The preliminary results of the May 26 autopsy were included in the statement of probable cause for charges against Chauvin. The medical examiner suggested underlying health conditions contributed to Floyd’s death. Floyd’s family said it will seek an independent autopsy. [Derek Chauvin Charged With Third-Degree Murder And Manslaughter In Death Of George Floyd, by Marisa Iati, Kim Bellware, Mark Berman, Lateshia Beachum and John Wagner, WaPo, May 29, 2020]
Floyd was fundamentally unhealthy and had illegal drugs in his system. Not a good idea to then go commit a crime, get arrested, and fight the police, both before and after being handcuffed. There is also a rumor that he was conscious in the ambulance and slipped his handcuffs in an escape attempt.
Now, the Lugenpresse is making much of the fact that Chauvin had his knee on George’s neck for a whole 7 minutes or so, as if that is something bad or unusual.
Derek Chauvin kept his knee pinned down on George Floyd’s neck for 8 minutes and 46 seconds, according to a criminal complaint filed Friday. Chauvin did not remove his knee after Floyd said “I can’t breathe” or after he shouted “Mama” and uttered “please,” the charging statement from the Hennepin County Attorney’s office says. He allegedly did not move his knee until nearly three minutes after another officer was unable to find Floyd’s pulse.
I tell you kneeling on the head or neck is quite common and useful physical control technique. It is also used daily in hundreds of arrests. The technique is quite common when making arrests and the criminals, especially black criminals, often fight back even after being handcuffed. And this is what happened. Police officers do this for two main reasons, first, as in this case, Floyd resumed fighting after being handcuffed and had to be subdued again. The knee on the neck was a precautionary measure meant to keep him down so he did not attack again. One can see examples of this if you watch Cops or Live PD. Criminals even try and run away while handcuffed. They also slip the handcuffs and escape.
Secondly, Chauvin and his fellow officers were surrounded by a hostile mob of blacks who by their proximity and common black behavior were likely to attack the officers and help Floyd escape. Chauvin had to keep his knee on Floyd, so he could maintain situational awareness of the growing, hostile, and potentially violent crowd. Crowds commonly attack police and interfere with arrests. Maintaining control over the suspect is very important in these situations.
Thirdly, criminals often feign injury, especially now, claiming they can’t breathe in part to help set up the loosening or removal of handcuffs so they can escape.
Even the criminal complaint, (note this is not a Grand Jury indictment, which tells us much: The Hennepin County Attorney’s Office was afraid to take it to a Grand Jury, which is required by the Constitution), admits that Floyd was violently resisting before and after handcuffing.
The complaint says Floyd initially resisted being handcuffed when officers sought to arrest him on suspicion of trying to pay for a purchase with a counterfeit $20 bill, but he then became compliant. He sat on the ground at officer Thomas Lane’s direction while Lane asked him questions. When Lane and officer J. Alexander Kueng tried to walk Floyd to a squad car, however, the complaint says that “Mr. Floyd stiffened up, fell to the ground, and told the officers he was claustrophobic.” Floyd allegedly continued to intentionally fall down and refuse to stand still to avoid entering the car, but the officers eventually got him into a passenger seat of the vehicle. At 8:19 p.m., Chauvin pulled Floyd out of the car and brought him to the ground, facedown and handcuffed, the complaint says. Kueng allegedly held Floyd’s back, Lane held his legs and Chauvin put his left knee near Floyd’s head and neck. The officers remained in position while Floyd said he could not breathe, according to the complaint. “You are talking fine,” they allegedly told him as he moved back and forth.
This is quite similar to the Garner case, he complained he could not breathe, which is not factual—if you can talk, you can breathe. You might be having trouble breathing, but you’re still breathing. Garner was claiming he couldn’t breathe, but also was physically and verbally resisting arrest. This is mostly a tactic used by criminals to resist initial handcuffing and detention, then play to the crowd in an attempt to intimidate the police with the subsequent threat of attack by the crowd, and it is usually black criminals who do this, and black crowds who attack the police.
Derek Chauvin is a political prisoner. He has been denied his right to a Grand Jury indictment for this crime. He was arrested based on a Criminal Complaint, which is generally only used when the suspect is agreeing to plead guilty. The Fifth Amendment to the Constitution guarantees the right to a Grand Jury indictment:
No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a grand jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the militia, when in actual service in time of war or public danger; [Fifth Amendment, by James Madison, Legal Information Institute]
As mentioned before, it is clear that the Hennepin County Attorney wanted to bypass the Constitution, as is usually for politicians in the Democrat Party. He was afraid that he would get a no-bill from the generally white jury pool, as few blacks ever show up for jury duty, especially for Grand Jury.
This is part of the war on whites being waged by most of the American government, at all levels, State, local, and Federal. The Deep State is real and just as President Trump has been a victim, as George Zimmerman was a victim, so is the latest white victim, Derek Chauvin.
