Time Text
Hello, everybody.
Welcome to another episode of Radio Renaissance.
My name is Henry Wolfe, standing in again for Jared Taylor, who is out of town.
I'm here with the inimitable Paul Kersey of Stuff Black People Don't Like.
And what is your new project going to be called?
Maybe you could introduce that to our listeners.
Hey, I'm pretty pumped up to be here, Mr.
Wolfe. Again, we had a fantastic talk last week.
Yeah, the new project is simply Because We Live Here.
It's a line from the 1984 film Red Dawn, when the leader of the guerrilla, Wolverines, is asked what separates the Russians, the invaders, from the Americans, and Patrick Swayze's character, his name is Jed Eckert, in the movie simply says, Because We Live Here.
That line has always resonated with me.
And I remember reading a review of the movie by Murray Rothbard.
Murray Rothbard is someone you should read because his book, Egalitarianism is Revolt Against Nature,
one of the more impressive books to understand the crisis that we're still living under.
But he said that that line was one of the more profound...
Well, from a libertarian perspective.
And you could say that Murray Rothbard was one of the great racial libertarians of our time.
We won't get into that now.
So the new project is going to be another site.
It's going to be called Because We Live Here.
It's going to go into more of the ideas that really don't have time or they don't fit in at SBPDL. A lot of people who want to contribute and you know SBPDL is a project of one person because we live here will be a project.
Multiple people and very excited about where that platform will head but more importantly I'm excited about the opportunity to once again chat with you.
Well we look forward to seeing what you come up with.
We've been big fans of your work over the years.
Today, obviously, we've got a lot to talk about.
It's been a huge news week for the alternative right for Richard Spencer who went down to Gainesville and held a
An event that was as successful as it possibly could be Considering the circumstances that we were up against it
was so crucial to have a big event Be a success and be peaceful and you know have open
discourse in the wake of Charlottesville And I think this is another thing that will go to
Undermine that narrative of Charlottesville that kind of cloud that's hanging over the head of the alternative,
right?
Well before we begin this podcast today you showed me the quote from the mayor of Gainesville
The Gainesville mayor is a male by the name of Lauren Poe, and he said, There's no question that he, Richard Spencer, is a terrorist leader and that his followers look to commit acts of terror to disrupt our community.
Mr. Wolfe, this idea is so pervasive on the left, on Twitter, on social media, and within the mainstream media because the narrative was established in Charlottesville, an erroneous narrative, but unfortunately it's one that has permeated throughout the Throughout the consciousness of the left and unfortunately of a lot of conservatives as well.
I mean, you probably saw the story in the Miami Herald that a professor at the University of Florida saw what he thought was a militia of white supremacists.
And it turns out that it was, no, it was just cops.
But remember, Mr.
Mr. Wolf, the left has since Barack Obama's tenure as president, they have so successfully
created this idea that the police are nothing more than an extension of a white supremacist
society.
That it's not that far of a question to believe that how dare police protect an event such
Well, that's certainly what the Antifa believe.
I mean, if an event is going on successfully and we're managing to get our message out there and speak our minds, then the Antifa will start attacking the police because the police are enabling that event to happen, which is exactly as it should be.
But that's not something that they believe in.
I mean, our opponents have found out some time ago that when they engage us in open debate, they lose.
The facts aren't on their side.
There are unjustifiable double standards against whites and white identity.
And so they no longer want to debate us on the merits.
They want to simply shut us down.
We could go back to the American Renaissance Conferences, two of which were cancelled in the early 2010s.
And we've successfully held conferences since then in public venues.
And the NPI Conferences has been successfully held in public venues.
And now we're expanding beyond that.
And Richard is not invited by a student group to Gainesville.
They basically came in and Paid the fee that anyone, any community member, any American has the right to pay and rent out that facility.
And so the left wants to shut it down.
And so people on campus were saying, oh, the university should have simply litigated it.
They should have, even if they were going to lose, they should have pressed hard to get this event canceled down.
And the way that they're trying to justify that is by saying that the alt-right and its leaders are terrorists or are going to bring violence.
Yeah, and again, Richard has spoke at a number of colleges over the past number of years.
Jared Taylor spoke at a number of public venues.
But you go to the events at Texas A&M, I believe Richard spoke at Auburn University.
There was no violence.
Well, there was no violence committed by so-called members of the alt-right or Spencer's supporters, people who were actually coming there to listen to a speech.
We should want to live in a society where a totalitarian, top-down ideology is not allowed to squash any form of legitimate debate and inquiry.
And we're now at a point, though, when you look at the amount of money that was spent to ensure that this event could go on.
I saw estimates of $500,000, but as you said, Mr.
Wolf, $600,000 to secure this event.
Yeah, an unbelievable cost.
And we should point out, too, that it's not just people in the alt-right who are being shut down.
You could go back to the Milo events at Berkeley, which were shut down, the Ann Coulter event.
You could talk about Charles Murray being attacked at Middlebury.
These shutdowns are happening all across the country.
I saw that at William& Mary, an ACLU speaker Was shouted down, and they were yelling at her, chanting at her.
The BLM people were upset because the ACLU stood up for the alt-right's right to speak in Charlottesville.
About the only conservative that's probably allowed on college campuses now to give a talk is George W. Bush, because he's going to denounce We're good to go.
The right and left agree on the main issues and there's just, you know, maybe tax cuts and these other small, minute issues that don't really impact people's lives such as demographic change has so significantly changed people's life and the ability to have upward mobility when it comes to income.
George W. Bush, who, you know, during his presidency, had trouble being able to speak anywhere.
He was made fun of by Saturday Night Live, lampooned by every leftist.
Now, of course, becomes every leftist's favorite conservative.
Oh, they said, I just saw a headline, it was his greatest hour.
It was George W. Bush's greatest hour.
Of course, it's your greatest hour whenever you're doing the bidding of the left.
And what is doing the bidding of the left?
It is shutting down any discourse on the issues that are really of significance to our day.
As long as conservatives are talking about, you know, minutiae of policy and, you know, stupid things that ultimately are going to be of no consequence because once demographics shift, they're all going to be swept away.
But if you talk about demographics, you're threatening the left's chance for a permanent stranglehold on American politics.
At the heart of every issue, the right, the so-called right, care about, the right that the Koch brothers, that the Koch
Industries found, support, the so-called right that the Heritage Institute supports.
Race is at the heart of every issue.
I remember someone once told me that if they were going to re- someone very, very important, a very important name,
they told me that if they were going to reinvent the right, this was well before Trump came on board on the scene in
2015, they said Jared Taylor would be at the heart of the reinstituted
right, because every idea, it's like the heart, it's like a heart.
It pumps the blood, race pumps the blood of every issue that matters.
That's right.
And as we see with the profound response where, I can't remember what the hashtag was on Twitter, but this was the
biggest story in the world.
Spencer.
Spencer at UF. That's right, hashtag Spencer at UF. NPR's number one talking point.
They had a whole hour of it that I listened to.
It was really pretty incredible.
And they were basically talking about our shifting understanding of free speech in the First Amendment.
That's what they labeled it as.
And one of the people they had on was a Black Lives Matter student at William& Mary who was one of the people shouting down this ACLU speaker.
And it was just priceless.
Liberalism is white supremacy.
And the NPR host was just utterly flabbergasted that, you know, they would say, he'd be like, oh, you're going to have to explain that one.
And, you know, trying to be sheepish.
But clearly he was, you know, she struck an arrow straight to his heart.
But to some extent, it's true.
It's true because these ideas of free speech and open discourse, they're white ideas, but furthermore, they're only a subset of whites.
It's only a subset of whites, really more Anglo-whites, who believe in these ideas of open discourse.
And we should remember that even in America, Open discourse is something that's really only been recently realized.
Profanity and all this stuff was not really allowed in the public square.
You could go to the Alien and Sedition Acts, things like this.
I mean, free speech is really a pretty new thing, actually, in America.
Even in the 90s, you had the PMRC trying to censor music and stuff like that.
And of course, even James Joyce's novel, Ulysses, It was really one of the first to, in the early 1900s, I believe it made it all the way to the Supreme Court because they were trying to have it banned on grounds of obscenity.
So we should remember just what a fragile thing free speech is, that you're talking about a subset of whites really only recently Beginning to embrace this idea that we should allow all ideas to be heard, we should debate them, we should treat people as rational animals who can make up their own minds.
And as demographics change, those ideas are going away.
You can look at polling data out of California.
On what the different races think about free speech and so-called hate speech.
And you see that the only group with a majority of people who support free speech is whites.
And non-whites definitely oppose it.
And they think you shouldn't be able to be, you know, quote, racist.
And then who's going to decide that?
To your point, I was watching a documentary with Halloween approaching.
I watched a documentary on the making of the Boris Karloff Frankenstein.
And they were talking about how some of the scenes in the movie...
There's a famous scene that was edited because I believe the entity...
It was a Catholic entity called the Legion of Decency.
What a cool name. That tried to enforce standards on movies.
And they didn't want the scene to show where Frankenstein throws...
I'm not sure if you've ever seen that.
It's a very famous scene that was actually cut from the theatrical release because it was so shocking that this girl would be drowned by the monster.
And you do think about how throughout most of American history, free speech is one of those ideas that everyone loves because it's in the First Amendment.
But most people are afraid to actually exercise that right.
And for a lot of people, it's like a muscle that you don't work out.
It's atrophied. And Jared Taylor.
American Renaissance has been around since, what, the early 1990s.
And you think about all of the obstacles that this great organization has had to overcome.
What you guys faced in Charlotte when the mayor of Charlotte basically declared war.
When you hear these words that Richard Spencer is somehow a terrorist leader.
This is from an elected official.
A terrorist leader.
That, unfortunately, is a byproduct of the media's ability to turn Charlottesville into such a significant loss for the alt-right side.
They're totally unhinged. Even on the normal NPR news report, which is just supposed to be strict news, not opinion, they said that he led the Charlottesville rally.
And that's not true. He was a speaker.
I mean, if anyone led it, you could say it was Jason Kessler.
He was supposed to appear there and speak there.
But no, everything is put on him that happened there.
And why is that? Because what they're trying to do is silence his speech.
And the only way they can do that is by saying that it's associated with violence or that he engages in calls to violence, which You know, anyone who's intellectually honest would say that that's absolutely not the case.
That, you know, Richard is very into dialogue.
He'll talk to anybody.
He's appeared in videos with talking with Antifa leader Lacey, whatever her name is.
He'll be on CNN talking with that black divinity guy, whatever his name is.
He's very open to talking to anyone.
He talks to media more than anyone on our side.
Talked to Charles Barkley. He went down to do some show on TNT. You think about how he's supposed to be this boogeyman and how the media wants to use him to frame the conversation.
So that anyone who voices concerns about white people become a minority in the United States and what's going to happen based on all the evidence we see in other countries and cities throughout the United States, what transpires.
But so few media outlets, I mean, again, there's almost a blackout when it comes to Spencer being allowed, or anyone from our side.
Jared knows this. I mean, I can remember watching Jared when he went on in 2003 the Phil Donahue Show.
Yeah. You would think that he would try and have Richard on because A, it would pop some ratings, B, it would be good for social media hits the next day, and C, it would get Tucker some points to showcase that, hey, he's not a supremacist, he's not part of this identitarian movement.
Well, conservatives are terrified of Touching us or our ideas because they'll instantly be conflated with us.
There's no intellectual honesty on the left, so anyone who even engages with us, if they're on the right, they're automatically us.
When liberals engage with us, they can call us all the names they want, and so no one really thinks that they're guilty by association.
But conservatives, of course, are.
Wow, and that's been one of the great tragedies of the past 70, 80 years of conservatism, the Buckleyite version of conservatism and what we saw degenerate with the John Birch Society.
You know, there's some great writings out there, Rebel Oliver's analysis on what transpired in the post-World War II conservatism, what happened, and basically...
It's one failure after another when you think about the billions of dollars that have been raised by these non-profits, sometimes on a yearly basis, and virtually nothing to show for it.
I mean, I know this isn't really race-related, but it is so stunning when you see that picture of the transvestite dressed in satanic garb reading to children.
When you think about it, The degeneracy that has been unleashed by the civil rights era where we declared egalitarianism and equality, the new American creed, that enables any idea, no matter how psychologically alarming and the sociopaths behind pushing this stuff, we have to defer to the fact that the American creed now is Absolute egalitarianism.
Well and that's the thing is you have to constantly have this one-upism on the left where you know the frontiers are constantly being pushed because you know the right sort of white people always need to signal that they have the progressive opinions and as soon as the rubes start getting their the opinions that they used to have they've got it they got to push it to the next level right so You know, at one point it was saying that all races are equal.
Now we have to, like, deny that there are sex differences, right?
And what could be more obvious than sex differences?
You know, race differences, Jared has said this many times, you could basically forgive someone for thinking that the races were equal, maybe they didn't have the interaction with them, but sex differences, everyone has a mom, many people have sisters, you know, you can see what the heck is going on there, but that's not enough either.
Now it's all sexualities.
Beyond that, we've got gay marriage now, so now that that's out of the way, now it's the tranny stuff.
Now we've got a tranny on the cover of Playboy.
It's this constant one-upism on the left, and they have to pursue ever greater frontiers of lunacy, but I think they're going to jump the shark.
You just mentioned something that I still have tried to wrap my head around it.
with Hugh Hefner's passing, everyone tried to praise this guy who liberated women and as some
great feminist hero when you think about the objectification of women in the magazines.
And now you have the ultimate, the zenith of World War T, as I think Steve Saylor coined that term.
I mean, this transvestite stuff came out of nowhere, but its origins all come from the egalitarian victory that transpired in the 1960s.
A transvestite on the cover of the November 2017 issue of Playboy.
It's a transsexual.
Transsexual.
Mr. Kersey, there's some important difference.
I mean, again, but it all goes back as we stated earlier.
It all started with this denunciation of race being a vital part of the national discourse.
Once you supplanted this idea that race mattered, that race was irrelevant, sex differences
are irrelevant, morality is irrelevant, everything, ethics are irrelevant.
It definitely started then, but I think you could say that since the election of Donald Trump, the left has basically jumped the tracks.
And I mean the left in the broadest sense.
I mean, I think the media has become totally unhinged.
I think you've got everyone from the AP on down.
I mean, the headlines that they're putting out are just shockingly biased.
It's trite to say that the media is liberal, the media is biased.
We've always known that they were a little bit.
But they'll just put out this incredible stuff.
And now that we're at the center of media in so many cases, you get to see exactly where the lies are.
And you're like, wait a second, I know this person.
Or I know this organization.
This is not that. And you're just simply lying.
And the media has gone totally unhinged.
The tranny stuff has increased.
And also the reintroduction of violence into the public sphere has happened.
And so the stuff that we're seeing that's happened, you know, we talked about Berkeley, we talked about Middlebury, we could talk about Gainesville now.
The stuff that you're seeing is qualitatively different than what we saw prior to the election of Donald Trump.
It is a different tier. I think the left has jumped the tracks.
What you just said is so important to consider because Mayor Loren Poe's words, if Richard Spencer is in the eyes of the left a, quote, terrorist leader, end quote, what does that mean?
That means he has to be stopped by any means necessary.
A terrorist leader is someone who is going to do harm, who is going to potentially lead a counter-offensive against the establishment.
And what must Going back to January 20th, I believe, when he was punched, there must be preemptive strikes against not just Mr.
Spencer, but Henry, his followers.
And the twisted logic of the left goes something like this.
They will come to an event and they will create all sorts of violence or the threat of violence.
Then there has to be a massive police presence and response in order to protect the people who are just trying to have an event.
And then after the fact, they'll gaslight everyone and say, oh look, this massive police presence means that the group which was just trying to speak its mind, they're actually responsible for bringing the violence.
So they had someone on NPR who was saying, Someone in Gainesville who said, you know, look at the fact that the university is having to spend these hundreds of thousands on security.
Look at the fact that the National Guard rolled in this morning.
Look at these facts and tell me that Richard Spencer is not a violent man, is not bringing violence.
It's like, look. There would be no violence at our events if there were no Antifa.
There's no question. And we have proof because there have been other rallies in Charlottesville at the very same statue, with the very same people involved, not as large, but as Charlottesville 2.0.
But we've had two events there, and because they were flash events, they were not announced publicly, they were totally peaceful and successful.
Furthermore, we have conferences regularly that are totally peaceful and successful, with the exception of when Antifa show up.
And the gaslighting of the media on this stuff is just unbelievable.
Well, the Antifa is the shock troops of the establishment.
Remember, the establishment cannot allow any of our ideas to enter into the national consciousness or the debate.
That was one of the reasons why they did everything possible.
The media, going back to what George W. Bush is saying, where he's attacking...
Where he's attacking Trump for the nativist forces he's unleashing, and the war against globalism.
And of course, a couple days ago, our favorite senator from Arizona said virtually the same thing in another event, where he just blasted the American people for daring to stand up.
That's been one of the more exciting things that has happened over the past few years, is the attempt to conflate what Trump is doing with our ideas.
Because the fact is, Mr.
Trump is the President of the United States.
Right. And this idea that 63 million Americans are somehow irrelevant.
That's what the establishment wants you to believe.
When the mayor of Gainesville can say something like, hey, Richard Spencer is a terrorist leader.
I've followed the University of Florida for a number of years.
It is amazing the number of black athletes they bring to the football program who are kicked off the team for committing violence against women, who are committing violence against fellow students.
I believe that the University of Florida had suspended nine players earlier this year.
They've had a rash of players that have had to kick off the team for committing violence against women, violence against students.
To be truthful, the football program could be labeled a larger terrorist threat to the student body at the University of Florida.
But no one's going to consider that because people live vicariously.
They base their identity off of what happens on football Saturdays in the fall at Gainesville and Baton Rouge and Tuscaloosa, Athens, Georgia, Oxford, Mississippi, Starkville, Mississippi, Columbia, South Carolina.
At the same time, Richard is going to a college campus and all he's trying to do, all America Renaissance is trying to do, is simply state that if we continue...
Going where we're headed in the present, that the future is going to be unbelievably terrifying for whites and unborn Caucasians who are going to inherit our...
Well, it goes to the title of Mr.
Taylor's new book, If We Do Nothing.
And it is amazing to see the vitriolic response by the establishment and their shock troops in the establishment And the shock troops, the establishment, the Antifa, two people, like a Milo Yiannopoulos, like an Ann Coulter, like a Heather MacDonald, like a Charles Murray, who were
gingerly touching the issues and the insane response they get.
But then you look at what Mr. Spencer just received, $600,000 spent to secure an event
because of the grotesque threats against the lives of anyone who came.
And I watched the event, I know this is something you want to get to, is the actual event.
And I watched the event.
I know this is something you want to get to, is the actual event.
It was amazing to hear a question from someone who didn't know what Richard was all about.
It was amazing to hear a question from someone who didn't know what Richard was all about.
I think he said he was an immigrant.
I think he said he was an immigrant.
He just wanted to come and hear the event, but because of the behavior of the leftist,
He just wanted to come and hear the event.
But because of the behavior of the leftist, the Antifa who showed up, he was unable to
the Antifa who showed up, he was unable to even hear anything and he was shocked by that.
even hear anything.
I thought that he said...
When he was at BLM, he was associated with BLM.
That's right.
He said no more.
He said, I'm done with this because this isn't what I'm about.
It's funny that an immigrant has more fidelity to American values than the African Americans
who are here and their white allies who were in the audience raising black power fists
and shouting down Spencer during the entire event.
Yeah, you go to the fact that Spencer showed up in Gainesville And it was just an attempt to have dialogue.
And we were so past the time where dialogue is even possible when you have leftists going at MP3s.
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, and also shouting that at the ACLU people.
I mean, it was funny watching the...
Richard did a press conference beforehand and there were dozens of members of the press there, maybe something like 50 to 100 of them.
And just the questions that they were asking were so out of touch and so ignorant and shocking.
I mean, they asked him, how do you feel that you frighten children?
I mean, what kind of a question is that?
And this is supposedly from, you know, I don't think it was from, like, the AP or something, but it was from a big news station.
And they were saying, you know, how does it feel that you frighten children?
And, you know, then, of course, some other predictable questions like, you know, define white, define white.
And Mike Enoch, who was there, had a good point, which was like, you know, do you ever ask when you go to, like, a BLM press conference, do you ever ask them to define black?
Because plenty of blacks have, the average African-American has 20% white admixture.
Did you ever ask Obama to define black because he's 50% white?
No, of course not.
This is just an attempt to derail our efforts.
Do you think anyone will be offended if there's cultural appropriation of Mr.
Spencer and his appearance as a Halloween costume?
That's an astounding question to be asked.
How do you feel about frightening children?
The reality is children should be frightened by what's going on and the sacrifice of their inheritance.
Children is to drive them through Anacostia here in DC or drive them through some of the seedier areas in Baltimore.
Some of these effective no-go zones.
If you want to give your kids a real treat for Halloween, take them through there and they'll be absolutely terrified.
You know, I'm excited. This is a nice little tease of what's coming next week.
Back in 2011, I wrote something for Vidair that still gets a lot of traffic, I'm told.
It's, can your city pass the trick-or-treat test?
I think that's one of the great hallmarks of social capital.
A number of sites, Zillow and some of these real estate sites, they love to say the best places to trick-or-treat.
They give you the zip code. We're good to go.
You know, if someone dressed up as Spencer for Halloween, no one would be scared because they'd just see a well-dressed white dude that they'd probably be like, hey, who's this college professor here?
He's probably going to give me a king-size candy bar or something.
That's what they would expect.
Now, it really goes, if you watch that press conference, you can kind of look behind what all these questions, what is the underlying assumption behind these questions, and often it's that White identity and white racial consciousness can only be a pathology.
It can only be a pathology.
And of course, black identity, black racial consciousness, Hispanic identity, these are all normal and healthy and good.
You're fighting for minority rights.
You're on the side of all that's good.
But if you have a white identity, You are tainted with our society's highest sin.
You're a pariah and you shouldn't be allowed in the public square.
Something must have gone wrong in your childhood.
I remember the AP reporter asked him, was there a moment in your life when you really felt like you came into these views, like a decisive moment?
And, you know, what he's looking for is like, oh, I was mugged by a black guy or something.
You know, they're looking for some moment like that.
But I've known Richard for 10 years.
And I can say that, you know, he was not always where he is now.
You know, he's a very intellectually curious guy who arrived at his positions through careful study, careful thought on these issues.
And there's no pathology to it.
And that, I think, is something that utterly terrifies them.
It's not a contagion. It's not a virus that he was infected with.
It is rationalizing an irrational world where you begin to observe.
I mean, going back to what you said, liberalism is white supremacy.
Obviously, the next step is scientific method is white supremacy because you have this hypothesis, okay, races are equal.
Let's test that. Yeah.
Oh, my gosh. When you go to the experimentation phase and then you have to draw your conclusions after you test this hypothesis, you realize, holy cow, wow, that right there, my friends, that's the virus that has infected the body politic.
That brings us to another wrong thinker this week who got in quite a bit of trouble for pointing out this sort of thing, which is Mark Faber.
Who's a Swiss investor who's based in Thailand, but he's known as Dr.
Doom. And he has committed a grand heresy, a grand heresy against the prevailing orthodoxy.
In his October investment newsletter, he was discussing Confederate monuments and basically going after the people who want to tear these down, saying, oh, you know, they went after Al-Qaeda for tearing down these Buddha statues, but now look at them.
Look at what they're doing.
And so he says about them, he says, I cannot omit mentioning how the liberal hypocrites
condemned the Taliban when they blew up the world's two largest standing Buddhas.
But the very same people are now disturbed by statues of honorable people whose only
crime was to defend what all societies had done for more than 5000 years, keep a part
of the population enslaved.
And thank God white people populated America and not the blacks.
Otherwise, the US would look like Zimbabwe, which it might look like one day anyway, but
at least America enjoyed 200 years in the economic and political sun under a white majority.
I am not a racist, but the reality, no matter how politically incorrect, needs to be spelled out.
And let's not forget that the African tribal heads were more than happy to sell their own slaves to white, black, and Arab slave dealers.
Mr. Kersey, I'm frankly offended by this.
I'm shocked. You know, I don't remember the name of the college in Animal House.
I believe the name of the college is The motto of the school is, knowledge is good.
And when I saw this quote, A, you knew this guy's career was potentially done.
I'm sure he just didn't care anymore because he's probably got so much money that he just doesn't care.
He's an older guy and he's just watching as the United States of America is tearing itself apart, heading toward a tectonic shift in the way that we view Individuals who, you know, ten years ago, no one cared about.
It was something that was not divisive.
A hundred years ago, we celebrated.
In H.L. Minkins' biography, he talks about how they would have July 4th parades that went by, this is in the early 1900s, that would go by these Confederate statues, and no one cared.
You would be celebrating the Stars and Stripes, while at the same time, there are monuments to the honorable people who raised the Stars and Bars.
Knowledge is good and it's very difficult to find anything that Mr.
Faber said that you could say was objectionable.
No, I mean, that's the problem.
So the hysteria, of course, began and everyone's, you know, calling him up.
What they really want is the backtrack because this is the part when they tie him to the whipping post and they really get it in there.
I mean, that's That's what they look for in events like this.
A nail stood up, it's got to be hammered down.
And, you know, the greatest part about this is that Mr.
Faber did not back down.
In fact, he doubled down.
He responded to Business Insider, and they wanted to know if this was all a hoax, if he had actually written the letter.
He said, if stating some historical facts makes me racist, then I suppose I am a racist.
Adding... Maybe I am wrong, and the U.S. would be far more prosperous if the blacks had populated it, but please explain to me why you would think so.
And indeed, the burden of proof should be on them to explain, you know, give us one counterexample.
And there is a- A society that has been populated by blacks that has been- No, no, no, no, no, no.
Mr. Wolf. Mr.
Wolf. The blacks. Yes, we have to speak in Trumpian terms here.
And then the New York Post asked if he thought that African Americans were inherently less capable of delivering economic progress.
He replied, He added, Europeans brought science to America, they brought technical skills, and I am not sure Africans would have done that.
The Africans would have done that.
You know, a couple years ago, the big idea in the world of economics was Brazil was the next world power, the next economic superpower.
Of course, all these projections that The Economist, that Bloomberg, that everyone was saying, you gotta look where they're headed, the Invest, invest, invest.
And what's happened?
The exact opposite.
The exact opposite.
You've actually got a point now where this polygottenation, this multiracial society, that is America's future.
And I'm sure that at some level, if you were to go back and just as people comb through the Ron Paul newsletters to find some of these unfortunate things that Ron Whatever those newsletters were.
I'm sure you could find even some more shocking statements by Mr.
Faber. No, I'm sure.
I'm sure. But the fact is that someone who's operating with a proper set of assumptions when they look at the global economy and things, they've got an edge.
And so if you bought all the hokum about Brazil, you lost out.
But we have some friends who are in hedge fund investing, Got a friend who owns a hedge fund.
And he will specifically invest in enterprises that he thinks that because of the egalitarianism of the broader investment community, that they're not going to pay attention to.
They're not going to see. And he'll short sell things like the Brazilian economy that he knows are going to be propped up because of wishful thinking.
And he profits big time.
He does very well. One of the headlines you see on social media a lot, The Economist keeps For some reason, tweeting this story out is that the Japanese, is that police in Japan have so little crime to try and fight or to try and figure out who is committing crime because there's just no crime.
There are no murders. Nobody is committing the type of crime that we see every day happening in America.
That we've allowed to inundate our lives where we're worried about even going out to the mall or going out in public.
In Japan, police have nothing to do, and so they're trying to find things to do.
The Economist always points this out, whereas, you know, that's probably a nation, and we know that Mr.
Faber, he spends most of his time in Asia, largely in Singapore.
He probably walks the streets, and he looks around, and then he has friends in New York and in Chicago and in Los Angeles who are talking about the unbelievable security measures that would make the...
The attempts that the Gainesville police had, or what the Gainesville police had to do to secure the Spencer speech, to try and live in a place like New York, to try and live in a place like Los Angeles, to try and live in a place like Chicago, the amount of money that you're spending to secure that existence and to keep your family safe is appalling.
It's appalling because it's a reminder that everything that we were told about egalitarianism is a utter lie.
And Faber, who's marinated now in these Asian, all Asian societies, he's able to look around and say, oh my god, what in the world?
He can call things as he sees them, but for his crimes, for his sins...
He has now been banned from, he was a regular guest on cable news, so CNBC and Fox Business have said they'll no longer have him on.
He was dismissed from the boards of three asset management companies.
What we've got is the war on noticing.
You've got a guy just like James Watson, about a decade back, came out and said, you know, he's inherently bleak on the prospects of Africa because of race differences in IQ. They, you know, Nobel Prize winning, you know, arguably the most important guy with respect to DNA. And, you know, don't worry about it.
He doesn't know anything. This guy's an idiot.
Get him out of here. And he got fired from his position as well.
But there is a silver lining in this, and this goes to some broader trends.
And that is that Faber is scheduled to speak at the World Wealth Creation Conference in 2017.
And some of the organizers of this conference were contacted and told, you know, are you going to disinvite him because of these comments or whatever?
And they said no because, you know, they cited his vast investment knowledge.
But guess where the conference is going to be held?
It's going to be held in China.
Singapore. It's going to be in Singapore, and so they don't, you know, Asians do not care about these taboos.
What they want are the facts, and what is going to lead them to achieve better investments.
Yeah, economic security, and one of the best predictors of economic security, especially
when you're investing in something as consequential as a home in the United States, is to make
sure that you're investing in an area that will pass the trick-or-treating test, so that
you know that you're going to see appreciation.
Home ownership should be one of the great wealth creators in the country, and I know
that a number of investment gurus now are very bearish on home ownership, just because
when you look at the demographic trends, how long, and without the ability of freedom of
association, restrictive covenants, you cannot keep, it's impossible and it's illegal to
actually keep the racial integrity, for lack of a better term, of a community in check.
Bye.
You know, in the United States of America, it's not uncommon for a new subdivision, a new development, two in ten years, to completely collapse and go to a point where it's depreciation, where a strip mall was built, where there was some economic vibrancy, when the founding racial...
Stock leaves because it's no longer tenable to live there and then you see whether it becomes a barrio, whether it becomes a ghetto, whatever the term you want to use.
You know that some of these high-level individuals who have children, who have families, who have grandchildren, and they're looking at what's going on in the West.
If you're an honest person who's lived through Who saw Apollo 11 land on the moon?
And then you had this vision of where the country was headed.
You saw all this hopeful for massive infrastructure building.
And you had all this hope.
And you had all this desire for the world being a better place.
Tomorrowland actually coming.
And what you see instead.
And you know that this guy, Dr.
Doom, has thought a lot about this.
Just because of something Or you can look at just what Steve Saylor has coined the minority mortgage meltdown, the housing crisis.
And if you had an eye toward the racial angle of politics and you knew that some of these programs that George W. Bush was putting into place were to prop up minority homeownership, they were forcing banks and Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to underwrite these mortgages to underqualified non-whites.
Subprime lending was overwhelming, disproportionately hit non-whites as well.
You could see these things coming.
You could say, look, these people aren't going to be able to afford it.
Striving after equality and home ownership is stupid.
If you really want that, you need to do it in economic outcomes and wealth and things like that.
But he just went for the housing development.
It caused a huge bubble.
But we haven't learned our lesson.
America hasn't learned its lesson.
You can look at some of the stuff that Obama started pushing really shortly into the recovery.
And he was pushing the same kind of policies.
He's like, we need more non-white homeowners.
Yeah, the banks to loosen the regulations when it comes to lending.
When banks only have, truly banks only have one person to adhere and to answer to, and that's stockholders.
And stockholders should be just Absolutely ashamed that these banks would loosen lending practices because that is going to adversely affect the stock price.
It's going to drop. And, you know, the community reinvestment that you're talking about that George W. Bush pushed.
I mean, George W. Bush truly, you know, That's right.
Disproportionately white Southerners actually were killed in Afghanistan and Iraq.
And, you know, isn't that something that the left celebrates now?
Anyways, Faber, you know, to go back and to really accentuate just how important what just happened with Dr.
Doom, when he stated, quote, I cannot think of a person of his credibility, of his stature, who has stated, hey, F you.
That's what he's saying right there.
Well, when you live in Asia, you've got those privileges.
I mean, here, you know, he would probably have people, Antifa, you know, breaking down his door or something.
You certainly wouldn't be speaking at any conferences because those conferences would be picketed and they would pressure the venue to cancel.
It would be total hysteria.
Or the people who are also going to be speaking would be pressured to pull out.
I mean, again, these investment seminars, I mean, my gosh, probably every...
Hilton, located at a major international airport in the United States, every weekend they've got some sort of investment real estate seminar going on where you've got a cottage industry of people coming out and speaking on how to make money in the stock market, how to create revenue channels throughout, besides your primary vocation.
This guy, though, he literally is one of the, if not the, top financial advisors.
This guy is In his newsletter, he would write this.
I mean, again, you have to go back and think he consciously knew what was going to happen.
You're an investor. I think he had to.
What you've got to look at, to pair this with the Spencer thing, you see that This is part of the ever-growing campaign of dissidents, of people who are willing to speak out and say things which are obvious, which are obviously true and that need to be said.
But the system is going to lash out.
He was dropped from the positions.
He's no longer going to be on cable news.
They'll do everything in their power to silence it.
But we can't be silenced.
No, the oligarchy built upon egalitarian thinking, again, we go back to what we're talking about,
they have to continually push the envelope.
I mean, who would have thought...
Oh my god, I haven't picked up a Playboy since the middle of 2005 or 2006.
Who would have thought that this magazine that was once...
You know, a lot of people would say, this is a wonderful gentleman magazine.
I don't get it for the pictures.
I get it because of the great articles. Now you actually have transvestites.
I mean, just where is the left going to go now?
Transsexuals. It's such a...
I mean, these terms are...
I mean, I've got that image of that transsexual transvestite dressed up in the satanic garb just seared in my mind.
We live in a world where you would think every day that this is perdition.
But at the same time, you have these moments of...
You have a moment of, what's the best way to put this?
Illumination in the darkness.
These breaks in the clouds.
These breaks in the clouds where you realize, you know, you can't stop.
So few people out there willing to put themselves their fortune, their sacred honor, to borrow a phrase from the Declaration of Independence.
But we're at that point again, Mr.
Wolf. We're at that point where it is such a wonderful time to be alive because we stand on the precipice of the United States becoming a Brazil or South Africa, or we stand on a moment of A renaissance.
History does seem to be restarting and there's no guarantee that our side will end up victorious, but at least we're putting up a fight and more and more that fight seems to be escalating.
We should emphasize this is a fight of words and ideas that we are trying to win over primarily white people.
To our side. And actually, if we could encourage non-whites to pursue their own destinies, that would be fantastic too.
But primarily, we are interested in a Western white renaissance.
We need to wake white people up to the demographic realities that they face.
And all these efforts to silence us on social media, to kick us off the internet, To shut down our events at public venues, to physically attack us.
All these efforts are a system that is floundering, lashing out in increasingly egregious ways, and it is only going to bring more and more people to our side.
