This debate between Steve Sailer and Jared Taylor is worth watching.
Contrary to what some believe, posting an article does not imply agreement with all the contents of the article or everything the author of said article has ever said or done.
Debates between racialists who are intelligent and include a lot of truth in their arguments should be carefully followed by those who claim to be against racism. People who appear to make sense are more likely to win converts.
Example from Taylor:
| Quote: | "White liberals are openly, breathtakingly hypocritical. The appearance of racial rectitude is perhaps America’s most highly-regarded virtue, but it comes at essentially no cost.
You don’t have to have black friends, you don’t have to have Mexican neighbors, you don’t have to send your children to schools where no one speaks English, and you don’t have to invite Hmong refugees to your dinner parties. You can be racially respectable without doing anything. Just gush about the things you, yourself, carefully avoid: integration, multi-culturalism, and diversity.
"This is the Clinton/Kennedy/Bush racket.
"People get away with it because everyone is in on the charade. By any real racial test, by any measure that requires sacrifice, everyone fails, so whites never apply real tests to each other. Mouth the right clichés and you’re on the side of the angels. Racial rectitude is therefore the most cheaply bought virtue in American history— and also the most easily forfeited. Because only words matter, not deeds, a single sentence can wreck a career. " |
I can't disagree with most of this. One of the main reasons we have so much trouble getting a true debate on the ODR, hypodescent, white antebellum slavery, multiracial whiteness, etc. is precisely because being "anti-racist" is defined as keeping your mouth shut and not criticizing blacks or the other official minorities in any way, shape or form.
Dealing with the issues we raise will only get you called "racist" if you venture a politically incorrect opinion. Why bother with these issues when you can be a respectable "liberal" by not thinking for yourself? Of course, our concerns are very different from those of Taylor and Sailer. |
