"The Four Horsemen was released March 6, 1921, only two years and four months after the end of the Great War. It has been called a pioneering anti-war film. Maybe that was the intention of the people who made it. Maybe that is how the people who saw it at the time interpreted it. But watching it today, I can’t help but notice just how much wartime propaganda is still in it."

". . .Ducks have never sucker-punched me or held a gun to my stomach. Ducks have never raped a friend. Ducks don’t drive property values down. They don’t burn cities down. They aren’t a net drain on public revenue and public safety. I’ve never known a duck to murder a human. They don’t come home at 4:00 AM and sit in their driveway for 15 minutes with the stereo blasting."

"Jim finally reaches the German and is about to plunge the blade into his chest, but looking into the German’s eyes, he suddenly recognizes his humanity. The German’s face is not one of evil. He’s just a regular guy like Jim. Besides, the German has been fatally wounded and will be dead soon anyway. Jim can no longer bring himself to deliver the killing blow. The dying German requests a cigarette which Jim gives to him. The German passes away before he has a chance to smoke it."

"If the slogan 'Black Lives Matter' means anything, it means 'Black lives don’t matter enough to white people.' But that’s a complete falsehood. In truth, black lives don’t matter much to black people in general or to BLM in particular. In fact, white people tend to value black lives more than black people do."

I have a friend who’s a big college football fan. He loves the local State school -- “State” -- and hates the slightly more prestigious University -- “the U.”
"Halls also touches on a problem not often mentioned: black students who try to excel are harassed and bullied by their fellows for acting too white. There is, deep down, a dislike and incomprehension of higher education by a large percentage of blacks. Things have to be dumbed down to them. In 1970, this was simply not spoken of by the system. Halls of Anger showing hints of this was liberal heresy."

"The recipe for success as a national populist leader was clear: if by any chance you take power, you must crack down on so-called 'civil society,' NGOs, women’s advocacy groups, minority interest groups, LGBT organizations, press freedom advocates, transparency advocates, 'independent' media organizations, or in other words, the infrastructure necessary for color revolution. A good rule of thumb: if they take money from Soros’ Open Society Foundation, the National Endowment for Democracy, USAID, or any of the other globohomo financing schemes, they have to go."

"As far as I can discern, the study observes that the owners of white golf and tennis clubs charge exorbitant fees to prevent black people from coming in and stabbing them to death for 20 minutes or shooting them in front of their wives and children, although I’m reasonably certain that the 'research' doesn’t broach the whole shooting-and-stabbing angle."

"According to Martyanov, the problem started when the Clinton administration doubled down on his predecessor’s 'free trade' policies. NAFTA and WTO enabled China to destroy American industry. Deindustrialization has negative after-effects. One manufacturing job creates more than three non-manufacturing jobs while the opposite is not the case."

"The non-violent protests of minorities have been successful only in Anglo-Saxon nations or their colonial possessions. Tolerance for dissent is a redeeming characteristic of the so-called white mentality. Black civil rights demonstrations could never have succeeded in authoritarian nations such as Stalinist Russia, communist China, Islamic Saudi Arabia, or other autocracies that do not tolerate public disruption or political protests."

"Much of the Oded Yinon Plan reads like 'For Israel’s future security, we need civil wars in this, that, and these other countries.' Destabilizing nations is, of course, practically a technology among some circles, a craft that might be described as destructive social engineering or malicious applied sociology."

The Oded Yinon Plan & American Foreign Policy
In 1982, a foreign policy white paper appeared in a fairly obscure Israeli quarterly, which informally became known as the Oded Yinon Plan.
"But what of this claim that God does not exist? Isn’t the atheist in fact saying, 'I have an idea of a perfect being, but in my idea of the perfect being he lacks existence'? But this is the same thing as saying, 'I have an idea of a being that lacks nothing, but that lacks something: existence.' This, however, is clearly a contradiction."

"We’ve lost those beautiful old letters Þ and ð (called 'thorn' and 'eth'); and that curious little letter æ (called 'ash') for the distinctive English vowel of 'man' and 'hat.' And we’ve lost thousands of rich and beautiful words, both simple and complex: simple words like æÞele, meaning 'noble,' and wuldor, meaning 'glory'; and complex words like æÞelborennes, 'nobility of birth,' and wuldorgesteald, 'glorious dwellings.'"

"But something about this anti-Semitism thing just did not add up for me — even back then. For a people that supposedly saw anti-Semitism as a great evil, they sure liked to talk about it a lot. It really animated them, and in some weird way seemed to raise their morale. I was conscious of anti-white racism as well, but whites seemed to consider the topic distasteful and preferred not to discuss it."
