Very Interesting Article by John Derbyshire

The well-known conservative writer was recently fired from the conservative magazine, National Review (NR), for writing racially-insensitive material.

Read the entire article here.

Here's a lovely excerpt, from The Talk:  Nonblack Version:

"(11) The mean intelligence of blacks is much lower than for whites. The least intelligent ten percent of whites have IQs below 81; forty percent of blacks have IQs that low. Only one black in six is more intelligent than the average white; five whites out of six are more intelligent than the average black. These differences show in every test of general cognitive ability that anyone, of any race or nationality, has yet been able to devise. They are reflected in countless everyday situations. “Life is an IQ test.” 

(12) There is a magnifying effect here, too, caused by affirmative action. In a pure meritocracy there would be very low proportions of blacks in cognitively demanding jobs. Because of affirmative action, the proportions are higher. In government work, they are very high. Thus, in those encounters with strangers that involve cognitive engagement, ceteris paribus the black stranger will be less intelligent than the white. In such encounters, therefore—for example, at a government office—you will, on average, be dealt with more competently by a white than by a black. If that hostility-based magnifying effect (paragraph 8) is also in play, you will be dealt with more politely, too. “The DMV lady“ is a statistical truth, not a myth. (

13) In that pool of forty million, there are nonetheless many intelligent and well-socialized blacks. (I’ll use IWSB as an ad hoc abbreviation.) You should consciously seek opportunities to make friends with IWSBs. In addition to the ordinary pleasures of friendship, you will gain an amulet against potentially career-destroying accusations of prejudice.

(14) Be aware, however, that there is an issue of supply and demand here. Demand comes from organizations and businesses keen to display racial propriety by employing IWSBs, especially in positions at the interface with the general public—corporate sales reps, TV news presenters, press officers for government agencies, etc.—with corresponding depletion in less visible positions. There is also strong private demand from middle- and upper-class whites for personal bonds with IWSBs, for reasons given in the previous paragraph and also (next paragraph) as status markers.

(15) Unfortunately the demand is greater than the supply, so IWSBs are something of a luxury good, like antique furniture or corporate jets: boasted of by upper-class whites and wealthy organizations, coveted by the less prosperous. To be an IWSB in present-day US society is a height of felicity rarely before attained by any group of human beings in history. Try to curb your envy: it will be taken as prejudice (see paragraph 13).

You don’t have to follow my version of the talk point for point; but if you are white or Asian and have kids, you owe it to them to give them some version of the talk. It will save them a lot of time and trouble spent figuring things out for themselves. It may save their lives."

P.S.:  For those that don't understand blatant sarcasm, I am in no way endorsing or agreeing with this author.  However, his forthrightness and the fact that he has no qualms about publishing such material for the world to read just shows how many sectors of white society still do not understand the plight of minorities. The fact that he didn't even bother to use a pseudonym and doesn't fear retribution also shows how insulated the upper crust of society is from the rest of the social strata.  This is the sad state of race relations in 21st century America.

Behind Closed Doors in Rich, White Suburbia (Day in the Life of a Lifeguard in TX)

(FYI:  This is all true but since I still work here, the location and all names have been changed.)

 So I thought being surrounded by rednecks was fun until tonight...

I realized this when I jokingly told someone I knew from before that just like in the new movie, "Iron Sky," it would be cool if Palin were actually president! He said, "Really?!" (Redneck influence?)

It gets worse...I found myself laughing at a drawing of a guy in a truck pulling a black man in chains behind him! Oh and for some reason the black victim had his hands chopped off...The artist later added the caption to the drawing "I EAT HANDS!" and kindly wrote in MY name below the caption.

Later, these lifeguards took turns asking each other how they would react in this hypothetical scenario: 

There's a blind girl, a girl w/ no arm, and a black girl...which one do you murder, fuck, and marry? Oh and Tobey made sure to add that all the disabled people are white, of course. (Replace girl with guy, depending on who was being asked.)

EVERYONE said they would kill the black man/girl except for the head guard, who asked if the black guy was hot or not... 0_0

When they asked me I said I would NOT kill the black girl...they were like everyone would kill the black one! Don't lie!

Tobey's exact answer was:  "Kill the black girl, fuck the one-armed chick, and marry the blind one.  I can lock the blind one in a closet or cellar and she won't know the difference because she's blind!"

Then they decided to make this scenario a little more challenging and changed it up and said OK the black girl/guy is only half black, now what? One of the lifeguards said, "Boil her, skin her, and eat her!" 0_o Keep in mind this lifeguard is from a small Texan town, where he customarily sets traps and hunts critters (skins them and eats them).

One of the college-educated white female lifeguards was creative. She said, "KILL THEM ALLL!"

Another was even more so and said she would rather shoot herself than marry a black guy.

(FYI:  there is ONE black lifeguard that works at this pool.  I told them all but they said it's not true, that they have never seen a black person working there.  Perhaps, he quit from all the racism...can't blame him.)


No race was spared though.

Sam told me that he went to an Indian restaurant and they suggested the lamb dish and told him that they slaughter live goats out back. Sam thought they were joking but when he was leaving and drove around back he saw a pile of lamb carcasses! (Sam also though Indian and Israeli were the same thing before...)

Even my friend, Jeremy, who I don't think is racist, told me that Indians are covered in a "sweaty, sticky slime" and that he touched an Indian child once by accident and his hand was covered in the slime. He said he can smell them whenever they come to the pool.

Jeremy shared an anecdote once with all the other lifeguards: he blew his whistle at an Asian lady and that she was squinting at him and "pretending that she couldn't see him through her Asian eyes." Uhhh... and then he imitated her saying ,"I can't see you..." (This was all done in a really poor attempt at a Asian accent). He said he shouted back at her, "I know you can see me!"

WTF?

Oh yeah and Gavin told me that the solution to America's problems is to "nuke China."

Errrr....

Funny but also disturbing.

Oh Texas.

Why Linsanity is Sweeping the Nation

"America's conversation about race has been mostly black and white. An amazing Knicks point guard changed that."

"My first thought on seeing Jeremy Lin was that he reminded me of my cousins. Like many, I felt like I knew him. He’s a kind of kid I’ve seen my whole life — funny, smart, quick and brave. And Asian American. When I heard he was a Harvard grad, I thought: Of course, the first Asian American NBA superstar also had to go to Harvard and get better than a 3.0. And then: Way to raise the stakes on the Asian American overachiever. It’s still true that whatever color you are in America, if you’re not white you have to be twice as good to get half as far. But the Jeremy Lin paradox is that this champion — this skinny kid just out of college, this overlooked smiling Taiwanese American kid with, as we say, ‘the good Asian hair’ that is thick and stands straight up — he is making room for the rest of us. Part of the Jeremy Lin moment is America looking at an Asian American and realizing he’s just an American, too.

The great irony to his moment is that Jeremy Lin as a national figure is so much better than anyone I might have dreamed up as a possible solution to a problem with a body count: Asian Americans are currently the No. 1 most bullied demographic in America. The same invisibility that kept Jeremy Lin outside the “frame of reference” of coaches also kept the two different units who hounded Cpl. Harry Lew and Pvt. Danny Chen to suicide last year with constant racist taunts and physical abuse from realizing they were well outside the limits of respectful internal military discipline."

This video makes me crave Denny's breakfast food so much! "Breakfast of Champions," indeed!

Racist English Lady

I know this video is rather old but I just discovered it. Original video:

   

"You ain't British!  You're black!" LOL!
