Visiting Vilnius' KGB Museum

| Hello, I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance. | |
| Two years ago, I visited Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania. | |
| It's a beautiful city, although it lacks the diversity Americans are supposed to celebrate. | |
| During the Second World War, in 1940, the Soviet Union invaded and occupied Lithuania, which regained its independence only in 1991. | |
| While I was in the country, I visited the Museum of Occupations and Freedom Fights, better known as the KGB Museum because it's in the former KGB headquarters. | |
| It is a somber memorial to 50 years of tyranny, and parts of the building are just as they were under the occupation. | |
| Here are two holding cells, not even the size of phone booths, where dissidents were held in complete darkness. | |
| For days at a time. | |
| This is the door to long-term cell number four. | |
| You can see the bed through the trap door for delivering food. | |
| Here is a KGB interrogator's desk. | |
| The Soviets executed more than 1,000 people in the basement of this building. | |
| But the museum is also a tribute to Lithuanians who fought for freedom. | |
| Known as the Forest Brothers, they hid out. | |
| And fought the Soviets for nine years before they were finally crushed. | |
| Women were essential to the struggle, in which an estimated 30,000 partisans died. | |
| Here is a woman being decorated for her service to her country. | |
| The Forrest brothers always hoped for aid from the West, but it never came. | |
| They fought on alone. | |
| The museum now stands as a warning of a terrible time that must never be repeated and a monument to the courageous men and women who fought to preserve a wonderful heritage. | |
| Like the Lithuanians, we are living through a dark time. | |
| Our country is consumed by madness. | |
| As I've said before, we are in a period of mass delusion of historic proportions. | |
| It is as divorced from reality as the Dutch tulip mania of the 17th century when a single tulip bulb sold for ten times the income of a skilled artisan and then cracked. | |
| Even more to the point, it is like the Salem witch trials, in which wild accusations brought ruin. | |
| I'm talking, of course, about today's racial dogma, in which everything has been stood on its head. | |
| Washington and Columbus aren't heroes, they're villains. | |
| Western civilization isn't a magnificent achievement. | |
| It's a crime spree. | |
| Math and music theory aren't objective analysis. | |
| They're white supremacy. | |
| Whites didn't build America. | |
| Black slaves and Chinese coolies did. | |
| Black or Hispanic ghettos aren't a plague. | |
| They're the source of our white privilege. | |
| All forms of mass hysteria eventually burn out. | |
| The tulip bubble popped. | |
| After four months, the people of Salem more or less came to their senses in about five months. | |
| But don't forget, the Soviet Union was built on mass delusion, and it staggered on for more than 70 years. | |
| I don't know when, but someday we will have our own version of the Museum of Occupations and Freedom Fights, and it will have the same purpose. | |
| It will remind us of our terrible nightmare. | |
| And will be our solemn pledge never to make the same mistakes. | |
| What will we call it? | |
| The Museum of the Great Madness? | |
| The House of European Renewal? | |
| I don't know. | |
| But there will be all kinds of exhibits. | |
| Video clips of prominent Americans saying diversity is our greatest strength. | |
| Newspaper descriptions of crime suspects that include height, color of clothing, make of getaway car. | |
| But leave out one very important detail. | |
| There'll be training materials for fourth graders that explain that whites are, by their very nature, oppressors. | |
| There'll be photos of the statues of whites that were vandalized or came down to appease BLM rioters. | |
| Maybe the tax returns of non-whites who made fortunes denouncing white privilege. | |
| Also accounts of the astonishing power Private companies then had to squelch the truth and punish dissenters. | |
| Tales of the terror that followed when anyone dared pronounce the heretical words, It's okay to be white. | |
| And, of course, there will be an entire room dedicated to what became known as the Cult of the Adoration of the Negro. | |
| Its patron saint was a holy and blameless man who died for the sins of all white people. | |
| The day of his death became a feast day to rival Christmas. | |
| Here, congressional leaders from that dark time bow their heads in adoration. | |
| Maybe there will even be relics of the saint himself to remind future generations of the scale and intensity of the cult. | |
| I believe it will be generally recognized that the 2020s were the worst years of the great madness. | |
| I may not live to set foot in the museum, but some of you will. | |
| You will take your children, and on the way home they will ask, Daddy, or maybe Mommy, Did white people really believe it was a wonderful thing to become outnumbered by blacks and Muslims and Guatemalans? | |
| And you will answer, Yes, they did. | |

Among Those Who Fought

|
| Or if they didn't, they were too terrified to say so because of the great madness. | |
| And then will come, The really tough question. | |
| Daddy, did you ever go along with all that horrible stuff? | |
| And may you, ladies and gentlemen, be among those who can truthfully say, no, I fought it with all my strength, and in my own small way, I helped bring about the wonderful world we live in today. | |
