Time Text
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to today's Radio Renaissance.
I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance, and with me is our usual insightful, indefatigable guest, Paul Kersey.
And we'd like to start today's podcast with a discussion of the Florida governor's race, at least the primaries that were held just a day or two ago.
And, as those who have been paying attention realize, that both Republicans and Democrats seem to have turned against the machine politicians that the Stasi had served up, and the Democrats have tacked left and black, and the Republicans have tacked right and white.
So, the voters will get a genuine choice, which is pretty unusual these days.
Black and left, right and white.
That was a great little play on words there and a fun little and astute observation of what's transpiring as we're going to talk about in two very important southern states.
Yes, indeed.
It seems to be happening all around the country.
And I'm hoping that, as I say this every time we talk about this, I hope that white Democrats are paying attention.
Their day has come and their day has gone.
But, yes, the Republican is Ron DeSantis, a guy who campaigned as more Trump than Trump.
And the Democrat is going to be Andrew Gillum.
He is a self-styled progressive.
He was the mayor of Tallahassee.
He got support from Senator Bernie Sanders, and not only that, he got some last-minute support from billionaires Tom Steyer and our favorite billionaire George Soros.
He was really, he came from behind, too, and he seems to have mobilized the blacks, mobilized the progressives, so-called, despite the fact that his having been mayor of Tallahassee, his mayorship was mired in a very considerable scandal.
And as no less a source than the Tampa Bay Times, they called it a scandal that would have ended most candidates' primary campaigns.
Stopped it dead.
You have to wonder what that is going to play in the upcoming election.
That's going to be a major talking point for DeSantis as they start to hammer out a strategy for how to push back against this candidate from Tallahassee who has lavish funding from those who are That's right.
Apparently there was a big corruption scandal.
Some of the people in his administration in Tallahassee have already come under very close FBI scrutiny and there is in fact a photograph of him With an FBI undercover agent while he's doing an investigation.
This is the kind of thing that ordinarily will sink a campaign.
And during the primary, of course, his fellow Democrats were mum about this.
But I don't think Ron DeSantis is going to keep his lips sealed on this question here.
In any case, I think it is, again, significant that both Ron DeSantis and Andrew Gillum knocked off the middle of the rotors that had been set up by the parties themselves.
The party grandees are all reeling at this.
And just an interesting matter about Andrew Gillum, this black fellow.
He's got all the usual liberal policies, raising the minimum wage and getting a single-payer medical this.
But he also wants to abolish immigration and customs enforcement, which is certainly not something that he's in a position to do being the governor of a state.
And he also wants to impeach Donald Trump.
That's one of his campaigns.
It might be me and my understanding of the Constitution, Mr. Taylor, but I don't see how him as the chief executive of the state of Florida would be in a position to even have any say over the matter except to tweet this out to get support and a lot of retweets from uh verified uh verified blue check marks the verified hate brigade i think is what we should call them well that is apparently what he's hoping to do he is uh really motivating the troops by saying i'm for impeachment i'm for abolishing ice and as you point out neither of which is really within his purview or in his bailiwick
Now, this DeSantis guy, have you seen this remarkable campaign ad that he put on, this video ad in which he has a little daughter and a little son, and he's teaching the little daughter, she must be what, two, three years, just barely, walking around, cute, How to build a wall.
He's building a wall of blocks.
This commercial, obviously in response to Donald Trump's highly popular campaign slogan of build the wall, this campaign video is more impressive than the one of the Georgia governor candidate for the Republican Party, Kemp, who had the video of him with a shotgun when his daughter's boyfriend came over.
This video actually cuts the heart of the matter.
It's about, hey, You are my flesh and blood.
We are going to build the wall.
And guess what?
With Lego blocks, with toy blocks, this is how.
They're big.
They're big, big blocks.
You know, it's a good sized wall.
It comes up to, you know, about the chin of this little daughter.
It does.
You're right.
But in any case, the other aspect of this, he is sitting there reading a book.
To his little boy.
Little boy looks like he can hardly understand it, you know, but a very, very small child.
But he's talking about Donald Trump, and Donald Trump said, you're fired.
This is the best part I like.
He's saying this to his little boy.
He's really Trumpier than Trump.
It's quite over the top.
Which, Mr. Taylor, this is something we've talked about on this program.
This has to happen.
If this wave, if this movement that started in 2015, when Donald Trump came down that escalator in June of 2015 at Trump Tower, if this is going to have any staying power, you have to have individuals.
Who are going to grab that baton and take it in a different direction.
Using the same rhetoric, but in a different direction.
We've seen that with Chris Kobosh in Kansas.
We saw that with Kemp in Georgia.
And now we're seeing this quite powerfully in Florida.
We're also seeing it in Arizona, where the candidate that he endorsed, who refused to accept the endorsement, by the way, of outgoing Senator Jeff Flake.
She refused the endorsement.
She took Donald Trump's, but not Jeff Flake's.
Yes, I'm beginning to realize that Donald Trump really does appear to have remade the Republican Party.
And in remaking the Republican Party, he is remaking the Democrats also.
He has single-handedly done astonishing things.
As we remarked when he elected, he knocked off the crowned heads of the ruling presidential dynasties, both the Clintons and the Bushes.
And now he is turning the Republican Party into something it never was before, and this is forcing the Democrats to go in the opposite direction.
And I am always pleased when the dividing lines become clear.
And this is one of those cases in Florida.
The Democrats have got this super liberal black, and we've got a solid pro-Trump guy.
Not just a super liberal black, Mr. Taylor.
I'm sorry to interrupt, but this is an extremely important point to talk about how this guy is going to be pigeonholed as a socialist.
We are seeing the rise of racial socialism against white people, against white Americans, and this This entitlement mindset that is fueling, I think, a lot of this progressive talk.
It's not working that well with majority white voters of this redistributing the wealth.
It's just not.
It might work in majority white states like Vermont.
It might work in majority white states like Maine or New Hampshire where this type of rhetoric has a more amenable white audience, but in a place like Florida where you have a lot of retirees, you have a lot of businesses, they would be crippled by what this guy has been talking about when it comes to raising taxes on corporations in the state.
Yes, yes.
It's all very, very spendthrift stuff that I think ordinary white people, even if they are not very well educated and have big incomes, They just naturally don't go for that.
And it is also significant, once again, this young non-white has knocked off Gwen Graham, that was his opponent, a woman, an ex-congressman, and a daughter of Bob Graham, the former governor and long-term senator of the state.
Yet again, kind of an anointed machine politician, a white person who thought her time had come.
Too bad, too bad.
It's the young black guys who are eating your lunch.
And again, a whole lot of white Democrats are watching.
Now, immediately after the primary campaigns in which the people who are going to be going up against each other in the general election were established, DeSantis got on Fox News and caused a huge stir by calling his opponent Gillum an articulate spokesman for the far left.
Now, you know we're not supposed to call blacks articulate.
That's a code word for saying that they surprisingly are able to speak English.
But what they're really going after him for is saying this.
When he was asked to comment on what Mr. Gillum was going to do in terms of his expensive policies, he says, the last thing we need... Well, he pointed out, first of all, the economy is really going great.
It is.
For now, in Florida.
And he says, the last thing we need to do is monkey this up by trying to embrace a socialist agenda with huge tax increases and bankrupting the state.
Well, the fact that he used the word monkey.
This is apparently not just a dog whistle.
This is a full-throated shout that is supposed to mobilize all the white racist voters.
And to me, the utter dishonesty of the press was clear as a bell when you saw the headlines that said that DeSantis says that if you vote for a black person, you are monkeying up the state.
As if he had put black and monkey in the same sentence.
Not at all.
Again, you can't say this is even a portrait choice of words.
All he's doing is describing what would happen if this socialist agenda is Embraced by the voters of Florida.
It would have devastating effects upon a state that really exists largely Thanks to tourism when you think about what's happening With the tourist industry and all the wonderful places that you can go visit down in Florida what that would do to the businesses the small businesses all of those Individuals whose livelihood is connected to ensuring that a lot of people from all across the country come to visit the great state of Florida and The dishonesty, like you said, again, I'm not sure what else, what other word that he could use where they wouldn't be.
They're listening to everything that he says.
Everything.
And everyone on the left has just assumed that he was trying to call attention to the race of his opponent by using the word monkey.
I don't believe that for a moment.
Now, I'll ask you a question.
If everybody on the left was saying, oh, this is dog whistle, this is wolf whistle, whatever it is, and Andrew Gillum had said, no, no, no, I'm sure he didn't mean that.
If you sort of took the honorable, generous approach, do you think that would have been good for him to the voters?
Or do you think that would have hurt him to the voters?
What do you think?
Do you think that would have hurt Gillum?
Is that what you're asking?
Yes.
If Gillum had taken a, no, no, I don't believe for a moment, I don't think the press would have reported on that actually.
I think that they would have put it on page A, well I haven't seen a newspaper in a while so I don't even know how many pages newspapers have but it would not have been above the fold if he had taken the high road.
Once again this just shows that This idea of the press trying to be this arbiter of truth, justice, blah blah blah.
Go back to 2007, maybe it was 2008 when Obama was running.
What was it that Joe Biden said about Barack Obama?
Oh, he was articulate.
He was articulate.
I think he actually was articulate and clean.
And I don't, the only people I think that made a big deal about that were, I don't know, maybe, I don't know what was around at that point.
Newsmax, maybe Matt Drudge and Drudge Report had something on it.
I don't think Twitter was even around in 2008.
So who knows?
This is one of those stories where Joe Biden says something far, far worse than anything that this Republican candidate.
But here's the great thing, and this is something that Republicans, white Republicans must learn more and more and more and more.
is that it doesn't matter that he used quote articulate spokesman end quote or said we need to do what the last thing we need to do is monkey this up to try and embrace the socialist agenda end quote the press axiomatically believes that all white republicans are inherently racist irredeemably racist so it doesn't matter if you give them this ammunition which he really didn't do but you know what they've already got the they've already got the gun half cocked and ready to fire of course of course uh But as I say, if his black opponent had really taken the high road and said, no, no, I don't believe for a moment that he was trying to call attention to race in this, I would have had a lot of respect for him.
But of course he didn't.
The press comes up to him and says, well, I'm not going to get down in the gutter.
It's already full of people like him and Donald Trump.
As if to say, well, of course he's misbehaving.
He's playing the race card.
But no, if he'd really taken the high road, I would have respected him.
But I suppose that's too much to ask.
Moving along though, just up north, a very small bit to Georgia.
Here we're going to have a general election campaign that's going to mirror that in Florida.
Because we have Stacey Abrams, a Democrat, who's trying to be the first black woman to serve as a governor.
And going up against Brian Kemp, who, as you mentioned earlier, he had these gun-toting ads, who is a Trump-style conservative, disdains the whole idea of political correctness.
The one thing that I really like about Brian Kemp is he's claimed that he is so opposed to political correctness and illegal immigrants, he's going to round up the criminal illegals and drive them off to the border in the back of his very own pickup.
That'd be a lot of trips.
Georgia has a thriving illegal alien.
Again, that's one of those states that you wish that ICE would have some of these massive raids like they've been doing in Texas where they have hundreds of agents come in and showcase, wow, these industries really are operating so illegally.
And Georgia is one of those states that has been wrecked by By illegal immigration.
I've said it before and I'll say it again.
A place like Georgia or North Carolina, these massive urban areas like Charlotte or Atlanta.
I'm trying to think of some other areas around the country where you have such massive white flight from communities that 20 years ago were all white and now because of what I call the black undertow effect, you have minorities moving in.
So whites move 10 to 20 miles down the road, create new cities.
That's all Atlanta is.
It's homes built by illegal aliens to house white people escaping black crime from communities that used to be all white, safe and prosperous.
Yes, we have this astonishing phenomenon in this country.
Every generation or so, we have to build a whole brand new city.
Because what used to be a pleasant place to live is now taken up by people who have made it unpleasant.
It's this sort of constant leapfrog, getting ahead, getting ahead of the rising tide of color, if I may coin a phrase.
No, you may utilize that great phrase from Stoddard's book and it's important to point out, as we have before, that the non-white population of the great state of Georgia has grown to 40% from 29 in 1990.
That means that in 1990 the state of Georgia was 71% white and now it's roughly 60% white.
I think it's a little less than that.
She opened up her campaign, Mr. Taylor, we know what she said.
You know, she basically demanded the sandblasting of the carving of Jefferson Davis, Robert E. Lee, and Stonewall Jackson.
Perhaps one of the most beautiful monuments in the entire world.
If you've ever had the chance to be there, if you've never had the chance to be there, I implore you to go check this out.
You need to see this with your own eyes because... Say it while it lasts.
Yeah, the way things are going, we're going to see an ISIS-esque moment where the The jubilant New America that has taken over the state of Georgia and the executive branch and the judicial and the legislative at some point in the near future.
They have a moment that is broadcast worldwide as we are going to finally remove the stain of white supremacy from the state of Georgia once and for all.
Of course.
Of course.
Why should we stop there?
Mount Rushmore should be in the colors here too.
That'll be 10 years after.
Yeah, well, maybe I'd give it 20 years.
Okay.
But Jefferson's a slave owner, Washington's a slave owner, and Lincoln wanted to deport the slaves.
Teddy Roosevelt was certainly no egalitarian.
All four of them, they got to go.
They got to go.
Certainly if Stone Mountain's got to go.
But, you know, I saw another figure here in the last 20 years, that as the state's population has ballooned nearly 30%, The share of registered voters who are not white went from 27% to 46%.
That is a huge rise.
And the reason why the press is reporting this, of course, is because everybody knows that Stacey Abrams is counting on the non-whites.
Yes.
It's as simple as that.
What should ordinarily be a contest of ideas and vision, and there is certainly some of that, the press recognizes is going to be a racial headcount.
The ideas are one thing, but the electorate is clearly something else.
Well, in a multiracial society, democracy is nothing more than a racial headcount, and we're going to see that in Georgia and Florida.
I mean, one of the things that we haven't talked about is the shocking number of Puerto Ricans who are going to be eligible to vote in the state of Florida during this upcoming governor's race in November.
Thanks to the hurricane.
Yes!
But yes, once again, this guy, the white guy.
Brian Kemp.
Brian Kemp, the shotgun-toting white guy.
He took 69% against, once again, the machine candidate, Lieutenant Governor Casey Cagle, who had pots and pots of money in the bank, outspent him.
But the bottom fell out of Cagle's campaign when Donald Trump tweeted a surprise endorsement just a week before the election.
Remarkable.
One of the things that was so fascinating about that surprise endorsement is that he was told by his advisors, you should go with Cagle.
You should go with Cagle.
He was told repeatedly.
And again, Cagle is this country club, milquetoast, Well-connected guy who's spent a lot of time in Atlanta and has wined and dined with kings and queens while Brian Kemp is, you know, living and dining on pork and beans to describe the difference between the two and their ideologies.
Yep.
Cagle's fine with basically turning the state over.
You know, Cagle reminds me that mindset.
We're not going to have a chance to talk about it, but it's one of the more shocking quotes I think I've ever heard of the father of that Girl who was killed by the illegal immigrant.
Molly Chabot?
Yes.
And it turns out that she had tweeted something derogatory about white people and then her father came out and said something just so stunning, Mr. Taylor.
Mexicans are better Iowans with better food.
They're just like white people that just have better food or something.
He actually said they're better Iowans with better food.
And, you know, I think in a lot of ways you were traditional Republican that is promoted by the media.
I mean, look at this hagiography for John McCain that we're seeing.
I think you did a video on that.
Yes.
That I recommend everyone watch.
That's up at amren.com.
Cagle's one of these guys.
Cagle's one of these guys who, again, he's not going to oppose at all this rising tide of color that has turned Georgia so close to the point of being another California or another Virginia.
And anything to keep the wages down.
That's the Country Club Republican for you.
That's all that seems to matter to these people.
Bingo.
And this is a good lead into our next story.
It's a report that the Center for Immigration Studies put out just this week.
I really respect the work that those guys do.
They are certainly not white advocates by any stretch of the imagination.
They're not nationalists.
They look at immigration and they make objective analyses in terms of what works, what doesn't, who's doing what to whom.
I really think their work is great and if any of you are not familiar with the Center for Immigration Studies. Look them
up and look at some of their remarkable research papers. Hey, they have all the right enemies. That's
true. But this is a subject that might be, might seem a little dry and dusty to some people.
But what they did was they looked at 474 separate occupations that are defined by the Department
of Commerce to find out what percentage of the workforces in these professions is actually occupied
by immigrants and illegal immigrants.
Thank you very much.
And what they found is out of these 474 occupations, only six are majority immigrant.
That is to say, immigrants are more likely to be doing this work than natives.
And of these, there is not a single profession in which more than 31% were illegal immigrants.
So they're trying to Overcome this idea that immigrants are doing all of these jobs that we can't do or won't do, don't know how to do, forgot how to do, refuse to do, and the professions that they found that account for these six occupations in which there is a majority of immigrants, both legal and illegal, account for only one percent of total U.S.
workforce anyway.
But, you know, obviously the economy would just grind to a halt if the immigrants or the illegal immigrants went away.
And these are, first of all, the one with about the largest number of immigrants is graders and sorters of agricultural products.
In other words, if you're out in the field and you're going to pick the tomatoes that are going to be shipped and the ones that are rotten and throw away, that's a pretty demanding job.
I guess not too many Americans want to do that.
Well, you have to ask yourself as well, Mr. Taylor.
How has this not been automated yet?
How is it or not machines have been invented?
When you go back to the 1900s, when the mechanical sharecropper was invented, basically making, I'm sorry, the mechanical cotton picker was invented, basically making sharecropper labor obsolete, which necessitated the great migration of blacks up north.
How have we not gotten to a point where it's cheaper to have machines than to even employ Well, first of all, the machines would probably be there if we did not have people who are willing to work for practically nothing.
It is a great, great obstacle to innovation when you have people who are willing to do this kind of work.
Now, believe it or not, I, in my youth, was a tomato sorter.
Yes, I was.
It was a pretty simple-minded job, but I was in a factory.
Some of the stuff that had been shipped in was rotten, some was not.
I put the big tomatoes here, the small tomatoes there, and the rotten tomatoes over my shoulder and a big tub behind me.
It's pretty boring work, but at that time, and I was still a college student, we did not have machines to do it, and apparently we still don't.
Do you still eat tomatoes or did that turn you off from tomatoes?
Oh, I love tomatoes.
I love tomatoes.
We were not allowed to eat the tomatoes on the assembly line anyway.
Now, the other profession that is full of immigrants.
This is miscellaneous personal appearance workers.
Now, I assume that's people like do pedicures and manicures and maybe hairdressers.
62% of them are immigrants.
Another is plasterers and stucco masons.
I'm surprised by that because plastering, I mean I bet most of these are stucco.
Plaster is pretty much of a dying art, actually putting up plaster.
But I'm surprised that as many of them, 58% are immigrants and about half that number are illegal immigrants.
than the other professions of sewing machine operators, tailors, dressmakers, and sewers, and miscellaneous agricultural workers.
In these six professions, immigrants are more than half of the workforce.
Now, as the CIS has pointed out, There are 42 million working-age natives who are out of the labor force.
If some of these people were not doing these jobs, I think there's no question that some of them, some of these people would be back in.
And it is true that probably the wages for graders and shorters of agricultural products would have to go up if they went away.
So what?
That's exactly what should happen.
But that's not the kind of thing that uh the Koch brothers and the rest of the country called Republicans want.
Now they did and there is not there's not a single occupation of which the majority of workers are illegal immigrants but uh and the something else that the CIS the Center for Immigration Studies pointed out only four percent of illegal immigrants and two percent of all immigrants do farm work.
Thought that was pretty interesting.
And also, the illegal immigrants who are here work mostly in construction, cleaning, maintenance, food service, making clothes, and in agriculture.
But in all of those, the majority of the workers are either native-born or legal immigrants.
Now, another aspect of this I thought was interesting.
Most people have an idea that a number of professions are overwhelmingly immigrants, like maids and housekeepers, for example.
Turns out, a small majority are native-born.
Now, I suspect a lot of them are Hispanic, but native-born Hispanic.
Taxis and chauffeur, taxi drivers, those are 54% native-born.
Construction workers, 65% native-born.
65%.
I mean, all we ever see when I look out the window of what look like immigrants to me.
Janitors, this is a surprising figure, 73% native-born.
Only 27% are immigrants.
I guess a lot of these immigrants wouldn't stoop to that kind of work, who knows?
But in any case, all of these high immigrant occupations are primarily, but not exclusively, low-wage jobs that require relatively little education, which is exactly what we'd expect, and they're the kinds of jobs that blacks get pushed out of.
So you have this conflict between the world that liberals think they're working for, with all of these happy, employed, productive black people, and this world in which anybody can come to the United States.
If I were a black person, I would be furious about all this.
And there are a few sensible black people.
They're not what the press would call black leaders, but there are some sensible blacks who decry this influx of people who are taking the work that blacks There are a few, but unfortunately the vast majority support candidates and gentlemen or females for higher office like Andrew Gillum and Stacey Abrams who want to redistribute white wealth to enrich non-white pockets.
That's right.
I want them off welfare.
I want them sorting tomatoes.
It's honorable work.
Yes, I can speak from experience.
And one of the concluding remarks I wanted to make about this CIS study is that in the high immigrant occupations, Natives have a 9.8% unemployment rate, whereas the rest of the labor force is 5.6%.
That is no pure coincidence.
When you have all of these immigrants willing to work for a small amount of money, The people who would ordinarily be working in those jobs are out of work.
So thank you CIS for a very detailed and convincing analysis of this idea that somehow our economy would just grind to a halt if immigrants and illegal immigrants were to disappear.
Our next story has to do with the suit that was filed.
It was filed four years ago.
The wheels of justice grind fine, apparently, but boy do they grind slow.
But this is about the idea that Harvard has been discriminating against Asian Americans and the U.S.
Justice Department.
This is Donald Trump.
This is Jeff Sessions.
The Justice Department has filed a notice saying that Harvard is guilty of unlawful racial discrimination.
This is not a legal finding, but this is the view of the Justice Department.
And they say, in their filing, they say Harvard admits that on average it scores Asian American applicants lower on the personal rating than white applicants.
And there was an internal Harvard report that pointed this out and it got buried.
Now, I don't know how closely you followed this, but there is a sort of a section on personality.
Are you popular?
Are you the kind of guy that is going to make an impact on the world?
And apparently Asians are routinely graded down on that.
Now, To me, that's not necessarily implausible.
Some Asians, apparently those who have spent their entire lives here, seem to have lively personalities, but a lot of Asians really do have this kind of closed... I don't know how to quite put it, but they're not outgoing.
There aren't that many Asian comedians, for example.
Life of the party Asians, pretty rare, pretty rare.
And if they are objectively analyzing that, and I don't know really how they could, it is possible that Asians might score worse on that.
But I don't doubt for a moment that when it comes to just strict test scores and things like that, Asians have got to score higher.
I have to ask a question, and this is switching gears, but it's an important one, considering where you grew up and where you were reared and the fact that you are a fluent Japanese speaker.
Have you seen Crazy Rich Asians yet?
I have not.
I'm not sure I will see it.
I watched the trailer for it, and for those of our listeners who are unaware of this, it seems to be an American-born Asian who falls in love with a guy who is the son of some multi-multi-billionaire living in Hong Kong.
And it's this conflict between the kind of up-from-the-gutter American Asian and this super hoity-toity well-heeled kind of Hong Kong aristocrat.
It's sort of a princess story in which somebody that is not particularly distinguished gets to marry the prince.
But why do you ask?
I was just curious because this is a topic that it's a film that I think a lot of a lot of readers of the webzine and listeners of the podcast I think they'd be interested to hear what you have to take on a movie that had a stunning I think like a six percent drop-off in terms of box office from the first week it was out to the second which is almost unheard of for a film to make you know 25 million opening week and make 24.6 million the second week.
Most movies drop off 10, 20, 30 percent.
Your big Hollywood blockbuster, your comic book films, they have a substantial 40 to 50 percent drop.
This just shows the massive interest.
I just haven't seen any data on the demographics.
Whereas we know that blacks went to the theater over and over and over again to see Black Panther.
Are Asians going to see this movie over and over again because they get to see represent racial representation finally?
Well it looks like kind of a romantic comedy set in an Asian American context with all Asian characters and in that and to that extent for it to be a big budget picture with an all Asian cast basically that's significant.
That's the direction in which we are going.
I've seen no statistics on who the viewing audience is, but I suspect you're probably right about that.
But we will certainly see what happens with this suit that has been going on against Harvard.
The Justice Department is independently conducting its own Title VI investigation, that's from the Civil Rights Act of 1964, in which this kind of racial discrimination is forbidden.
Now, I keep wondering, is there ever going to be a suit and a just-in-part investigation into discrimination against whites?
I guess that's too much to hope for, even from a Trump administration.
And then here's just a small item here.
Stephen Colbert.
Stephen Colbert.
There's been a long, rambling, Rolling Stone interview.
I suppose a long, rambling, Rolling Stone interview is what you'd expect for Rolling Stone.
In any case, he says this.
Why am I, Stephen Colbert, white, male, straight, Christian-American, a hegemonic figure?
Now I say a hegemonic figure, for heaven's sake, that sounds like he's pretty self-absorbed to me.
He says, in my life, I don't just mean in character.
Then he goes on to say, like, like, F, yeah, me, me, me, white male, Christian-American, number one.
That is a dark feeling because it is indulging in an appetite for yourself.
It's very possessive, very consumptive, it's pornographic.
And so the confession is, yes, I have these feelings.
But the question is, why are these feelings indulged in America?
The feelings of thinking that being white, male, Christian, American, straight, to think that, to be conscious of that, not to be ashamed of that, that's a terrible thing.
This is the other side of the Jordan Peterson coin, where you shouldn't feel pride in your ancestors, where Colbert is just saying I shouldn't feel anything about being white.
I should just be this amorphous blob who is going to be walked all over and hand the reins of the country to individuals such as Gilliam and Kemp and let them be the next.
You mean Gilliam and Abrams.
Hopefully it's going to be DeSantis and Kemp who take the reins of both of those respective states.
Hegemony is one of those great words that I don't think is used enough.
I love that word and I'm not really sure what Colbert's, you know, is this is this him bemoaning his white privilege?
Well, he seems to think that because he's white, male, straight, Christian, and American.
Well, I suppose in the United States it helps to be American.
We still have certain citizen privilege, but a hegemonic figure.
I think he's just saying that he's a really important cool guy.
Everybody knows me.
I get stopped in the street, people want my autograph, want to have
selfies taken with me, I'm hegemonic. But he seems to think that he has floated to the
top for unfair reasons. He can resign from his post as, I don't know, I
can't remember if it's the Tonight Show, he's the host of one of the top night shows.
Guess what?
He can tomorrow, he can walk in to the production meet and say, guys I'm done.
My white privilege, I've got to let it go.
There's so many people of color who deserve this seat, who deserve to interview celebrities.
And somehow they never do, do they?
These people who bemoan the monolithic whiteness of the elite power structure, but they never step down and offer their place to some deserving person of color.
But yeah, he calls it pornographic.
Pornographic, that people would even think in those terms.
Well, boy, Stephen Colbert, sad guy.
But you know, all of this pornography is coming to an end, as is proven by the case of Lindsay Ellis.
This is someone of whom I had never heard.
But Lindsay Ellis hosts a show on PBS called It's Lit.
Now, I guess it's lit is some sort of double entendre.
On the one hand, lit meaning it's all very exciting, but it's literature, apparently, too.
And it's described on its web page as a series of smart, funny video essays from PBS Digital Studios about our favorite books and why we love to read.
Well, it turns out that Lindsay Ellis, who according to her photograph, looks sort of half white, half Asian to me.
Hard to make out exactly what she is.
She's something of an obscure.
She could be Hispanic, but my guess would be half white, half Asian.
But just a few of her little tweets lately, she's talking about how she, quote, gets really excited about white genocide.
And it's going to be the best genocide ever, she says.
And she says, white genocide sounds rad.
How do we make it happen sooner?
This almost sounds like a joke.
When I first saw these, I thought, well, you know, maybe she's just joking.
But you see in the context of these exchanges that this is not a joke at all.
No, no.
And another one, she says, all white people are the living embodiment of Satan's ass crack.
What the F do you think I mean?
End quote.
Yes, yes, yes.
That was not me talking.
And the interesting thing about this is it is only the alternative and dissident press that has even covered this at all.
Not one scrap of mainstream coverage, unlike the Sarah Jong saga.
You're not on Twitter anymore, so I do want to highlight there's a brand new Twitter account.
There's an individual.
I don't remember the Twitter handle.
I think it might be verified hate.
They're going around and they're looking at all the blue check marks and they're creating this massive database of all of those that Jack Dorsey's software has Verified with that anointed blue checkmark.
And it's all these stunning comments that would even probably make Lindsay Ellis blush in regards to these verified blue checkmarks opinions on Caucasians and on white people.
And they're all verified and there's a hashtag.
It's simply hashtag verified hate all one word.
It is a brilliant campaign.
It's one of those that has really gotten a lot of support from from some of the more important Just right of center.
You would think just normal conservatives.
I'm talking about like the actor James Woods.
He's been retweeting.
This is important stuff to get this type of vernacular into the mindset and into the lexicon
of your normal white conservative who doesn't truly understand the amount of intellectualized
hate that exists against Caucasians and white people nationwide in the elite.
Yes, it's very, very important for us to spread this stuff as widely as possible.
And in the case of PBS, our taxpayers support this girl, Lindsay Ellis.
And I would think that someone in Congress or in the administration, someone would say, hold on.
If, of course, I mean, to make the obvious point, if anybody said this about any of our racial pets, he'd be out like a light.
But to say this kind of thing and be on PBS?
But basically, apparently the mainstream press just wants to turn the other way.
We're not even going to talk about it.
Inconsequential.
Let's take 30 seconds.
Let me just ask you of your opinion on what Donald Trump is doing by taking the reins, I guess that's my buzzword for this podcast, of the debate with big tech, of the tech left, as Alex Jones calls them.
Well, what he is saying is wonderful, and I applaud it.
Saying things is one thing.
I want to know what he's going to do.
There is a very important law called the Communications Decency Act, and it goes back some years now.
It's got Section 230, which is the one that all of the big tech companies hang their hat on when they say, first of all, you cannot sue us for the content of our platforms.
But we can treat the content of our platforms even as if we were someone that you could sue.
Now, for example, the New York Times.
If the New York Times publishes something that is defamatory or libelous, because the New York Times edits what appears, they can be held responsible.
But the decision has been made, according to the Communications Decency Act, if you are running an interactive platform, your Twitter or Facebook, you're not responsible.
But at the same time, you get it both ways.
You're not responsible for the stuff that's up, but you can take down anything you don't like.
Now, this is a regulation that has been based on the Communication Decency Act.
I think that you could float a different proposal without legislation.
You could probably tinker around the edges of a regulation of that kind.
Is he going to do that?
We'll see.
Now, as far as any kind of legislation that could affect that, I don't know.
But talk is cheap.
And when you've got President Trump, talk is incessant.
What I would like to see is some kind of action.
Now, whether that would take legislation, to what extent he could actually do something by executive power, I'm not sure, but I want to see action.
So that's my response to that question.
Well, speaking of action, regrettably we saw some shocking action for what Steve Saylor has dubbed the hereditary hate, going back to the sins of the father when this When Connor Daly, he's a race car driver.
He drives, I believe, the number six NASCAR.
His father, gosh, last week admitted to using a racial slur in a live interview in the early 19...
That's right.
And I believe he didn't even understand that he was using a racial slur.
That's right.
He was from Ireland.
He'd recently arrived from Ireland.
There was a time when in Britain, for example, I knew a woman, I was rather surprised, a Scot actually, and Ireland's perhaps the same way.
She had a particular phrase for a particular kind of brown, and it was n-word brown.
N-word brown was the name of a color, and you could buy a dress in N-word brown.
And no one ever thought of it as being derogatory.
Sensitive.
Yes.
And when this fellow, Derek Daly, who is Connor's father, he was fresh off the boat, and he used this word, and he was told that's no good, and he promised never to use it again.
But the fact that he used this word almost 10 years before his son is born, now that this has come out, Lilly Diabetes, which is a subsidiary or division of Eli Lilly, has pulled its sponsorship.
Pulled its sponsorship.
This is just extraordinary.
Absolutely extraordinary that something that you didn't even do, that happened before you were born, but you are linked by blood to this ineradicable guilt.
Well, there's a reason why all these statues are coming down and all white people, whether they're linked by blood or just the color of their skin, they had that same sin.
So it's not that shocking when you start to put in context of what's happening nationwide.
But, you know, if you were to dredge up the activities of everybody's father or grandfather, who knows?
You're gonna get some unquestionably unsavory things by today's absurd standards.
And there was a similar story in South Africa.
I was a little bit surprised that it's the K word, as they call it.
Now, I suppose, I don't know if I'm permitted to pronounce this word to an American audience.
All you South Africans, cover your ears now.
But the word is kefir.
And that literally is an Arabic word, meaning an unbeliever.
But in South Africa, it's considered the equivalent of the N-word, and it's one that is used to describe black people in an unflattering light.
But a fellow named Adam Katzavenos, he was a South African white guy, and he was on vacation on some foreign beach, and he was giving a weather report and talking about how wonderful it all was.
And he says, there's an amazing sea and not one K-word in sight.
Well, this created a huge, huge scandal.
The South American Human Rights Commission received several complaints.
The Economic Freedom Fighters, that's Julius Malema's dispossessed white people party, laid criminal charges against him.
And his family announced that he's been fired from the family business.
The family business is a fairly well-known food supplier apparently.
It's called George's Fine Foods.
And some of their customers are cutting them off.
And also this guy, apparently a fairly well-off family, he has his child in a private school.
The private school has told him he's not allowed to set foot in the private school.
For this one word.
And he groveled about as grovelingly as I think it's possible to grovel.
He said, I caused unspeakable pain.
Unspeakable pain.
Got that?
I mean, this is worse than somebody taking a drill and opening holes in your head.
Unspeakable pain to every single person in South Africa.
I don't expect people to forgive me, but I will spend the rest of my life Repenting and trying to make up for my total lack of respect and judgment.
Now, have you ever heard a more groveling grovel than that?
That reaches a pretty low, a pretty deep low, it seems to me.
The only person they compare it to is the one we just talked about, and that's the father of the murdered University of Iowa student who said, hey, you know what?
These are these are better Americans. These are better Iowans.
They have better food I I think that's still something that that's far worse and
wouldn't show I guess there's two categories groveling or or
Siding with this this death cult Yes, yes.
This guy is trying to win back forgiveness, respectability.
It never works.
It never works.
How come they never learn?
It just never works.
They're not going to take him back.
I think people would have some respect for him if he said, look...
You know, I thought we live in a free country.
South Africa is definitely not.
I mean, they're talking about confiscating hundreds of thousands of firearms as we speak.
That's what I read the other day.
300,000 firearms.
Boy.
Well, you know, there is a great observation by Voltaire.
I can't remember what the context was, but he says, this animal is perverse.
When attacked, it defends itself.
Can't have that.
Can't have that.
And yes, the South Africans, now that they are targeted, they're going to now make sure that they'll be easy targets by removing their firearms.
Now, here is another not largely significant story, but it says something about the times in which we live in a particularly, I think, eloquent way.
Apparently, there was a group of young black children in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
And they were out playing together.
It was about a group of four people, I believe, all seven or younger.
And one of the boys, for reasons that have not yet been elucidated, just decided to urinate on a five-year-old black girl.
By the time they got home, they had decided that this was not going to be an easy thing to explain.
But they all got together and decided they were going to blame this incident on some white man who had urinated on the five-year-old black girl and called her the N-word.
At age seven and younger, it had already occurred to these people that this, if you want to shift the blame, Say a white man did it and use the n-word.
Well, sure enough, on the basis of this ball-faced but understandable little lie by these children, a 60-year-old white suspect was arrested and held in the Kent County Jail.
Grand Rapids prosecutors.
As it turned out he had an absolute ironclad alibi.
Of course.
And because he wasn't there and he didn't do it.
And eventually the children admitted that they had made the whole story up.
They admitted they made the whole story up but it's what happened before that came about that is so fascinating.
That's what the local NEECP President of the Greater Grand Rapids NAACP Clay Jackson said, quote, this is clearly a case of child molestation as well as a hate crime and should be treated as such, end quote.
Again, no evidence.
This guy's been arrested.
Like you said, an ironclad alibi.
The story went viral immediately and then the way that it was quietly brushed under the rug was stunning.
It was stunning.
But to me, it's just like Middle Easterners who show up and two weeks in the country, they're already talking about racial profiling.
By the time they're not even eight years old, black children know what the magic words are, who the villains are.
I think this is, it says an extraordinary thing about the mentality of the entire United States that filters down to these people.
Of course, we're all supposed to believe that all these black children have to be told that the world's out to get you.
And I guess this is one of the consequences.
If they really believe that the white man's out to get you, well, everybody's going to believe this.
And everybody did.
Now we do have a foreign story from Chemnitz.
That is in East Germany, where the Western poisons have not flowed with quite the, oh, Mississippian flow that they have in the other parts of the West.
We had two serious days of rioting because a Syrian man and a 22-year-old Iraqi have been held for stabbing deaths that resulted in one German dead and two others seriously injured.
The word got out about this and no fewer than an estimated 6,000 protesters poured into the streets, and they waved German flags, they carried placards that read, Stop the Migrant Flood, and they chanted, Merkel has got to go.
They were met by 1,000 counter-protesters, and there were the usual fisticuffs.
But I find it absolutely astonishing that white people have been motivated to this kind of action.
White people never riot.
I guess I've got to eat my words.
I've said that so many times, but that is no longer true.
At least East Germans will riot.
And I think it was great that one of the alternative for Deutschland people, he tweeted, this is Markus Frohnmayer, who has made some very sensible things in the past.
He put it out in a tweet.
If the state is no longer to protect citizens, then people take to the streets and protect themselves.
It's as simple as that.
Today, it's a citizen's duty to stop the lethal knife migration.
I like that.
Yes.
It could have targeted your father, son, or brother.
Well, it's a knife migration because it's trying to cut the heart of Germany out.
And you saw what Merkel just said about we're a nation of immigrants.
Macron just said that he took some swipes in Italy and he took some swipes at Austria.
I mean the Western European elite are watching this and you have to wonder what type of communication they're having in high-level meetings.
Knowing that this type of pushback, this type of, again, in all the times we've been doing these and all the times that you've been watching all this, this has to be one of the first times we've seen something of this nature.
Certainly on this scale.
There have been some demonstrations in Russia.
Russian groups will sometimes go on the rampage, but small numbers.
And they just seemed like pure thugs for the most part.
They were going to find a Chechen.
Well, this is back in the days when the Chechens were blowing things up, killing people in the subway, in theaters.
And you had groups of Russians who said, I've had enough.
They'd find a dark-looking guy, looked like a Chechen, beat him up.
I don't recall any of them ever being killed.
But here you have 6,000 guys in the streets protesting.
Yes, yes.
That is very, very significant.
And it's reported that some of them were picking on dark-looking people, yelling at them, maybe roughing them up a little bit.
But to me, it is extraordinary that Germans are prepared to take to the streets, to defend their country.
Then our last foreign story here, and our last of all of our stories, is a Nigel Farage tweet.
Just came out August 29th.
And I will just read it in its entirety.
He says, the South African land reform process is clearly not legal or transparent as Theresa May suggests.
She was defending it, of course.
Correct.
Yes.
It is absolute theft and I'm afraid with it we are losing the lives of many farmers.
Standing up for white people is clearly too awkward and difficult for our Prime Minister.
Well, now, what do you think of that?
Nigel Farage, of course, he's UKIP.
He left UKIP once they had Brexited, but he's still in the news.
And I sometimes think, this guy, this guy really does think in sensible demographic terms.
Five words that you're not supposed to utter.
He did.
We tweeted.
Standing up for white people.
That's right.
That's what you end on.
That is something that can't happen.
That's what the entire Western elite, the corporate media exists to try and stop from transpiring.
And it's an inevitability as Vox Dei notes.
Well, you know, I'm not much believer in gravestones and things, but sometimes I think if I ever have one, if I can persuade my children to do it, it'd be nice if it just said, he stood up for white people.
He stood up for his people.
He stood up for white people.
But no, that is something that is forbidden to us, to stand up for our people.
Hey, if we don't do it, we're only going to be stood upon, stamped upon, and kicked to the side of history.
Yes, I'll say that.
We have a little bit of time, and I think we have been neglecting questions from our listeners, and we should try to answer some of these questions.
And this questioner says, what specifically motivated you, and he's asking me, to take the initiative and create American Renaissance?
Then he goes on to say, How did the people close to you react when they learned of my plans?
Now, I don't think personal questions like this are of all that great interest, but the reason I did establish American Renaissance was because, obviously, white people are facing a crisis, and there were very few people standing up for white people, as Nigel Farage pointed out.
Theresa May won't do it.
And certainly, 28 years ago when I started American Renaissance, nobody in any kind of position was doing it.
And I did think those who were, and everyone thought that perhaps the Ku Klux Klan was in some clumsy way doing it, I thought there was a better way to do it than that.
A considerably better way.
And I still think there's a considerably better way.
But that's really all it was.
Just my realization that if we don't stand up for us, nobody will.
And there's a question about how do the people close to you react?
In that respect, I've been very lucky.
My family, despite the fact that my parents were both deep-dyed liberals, deep, deep, deep, they always loved me.
And although there was a time when my father got most of his news about my activities from subscribing to SPLC journals, we never, ever had any kind of family problems on account of that.
I'm extremely lucky that way.
I know that there are people in our movement who have had really serious rifts with their family, and I'm very sorry about that.
Some of them I always say, oh, people who've known me professionally or acquaintances over the years, some of them have screamed and run for the doors, but what I will say is this.
I've made all sorts of new and wonderful friends, like Mr. Kersey, that I never would have met had I stayed in my corner and refused to stand up for our people.
Well, I think that's a fitting way to end this wonderful podcast.
So for Jared Taylor, this has been Paul Kersey.
Our time is up.
