The Trope That Never Expires

     …is racism. Supposedly, American society is so pervaded by racism and the attendant maltreatment of Negroes that their physical health is being degraded:      Health disparities are the topic under scrutiny in today’s episode of Everything Is RacistTM. According to an investigative series by the Associated Press, black people are the biggest victims of …

You Can’t Make This Stuff Up Dept.

     If anything still requires explanation in this Age of the Absurd, it’s what sort of genetic engineering (or conditioning through drugs and torture) produces people with this degree of barefaced gall:      Susan Rice, who lied on five Sunday News shows about Benghazi, claims that systemic racism cost the economy $16T.      “In the …

The Judgmental Cadre And Their Accelerating Irrelevance

     I read somewhere that cartoonist Scott Adams believes himself to be politically on the left: “Somewhere to the left of Bernie,” to use his formulation. Hm. Well, maybe. But Adams respects evidence, and anyone who does that won’t remain on the left for long.      I’m sure my Gentle Readers are aware of Adams’s …

Social Deterioration In Real Time Dept.

     As long as we’re looking at signs of the Apocalypse, have another: Walmart has taken the racist step of protecting their inventory. pic.twitter.com/eOXhFE4sJP — Dane (@UltraDane) March 16, 2023      Well, yes, she’s an idiot. The cloth mask is a dead giveaway. But not only is she mumbling through a completely unnecessary mask, she’s …

An Unsurprising Reaction

     The old fable about the emperor’s new wardrobe, which only the honest and competent could see, ends with a small boy shattering the delusion, simply by speaking the truth. What Hans Christian Andersen had in mind in his fable is disputed today. Partly that’s because Andersen’s original ending for the tale was somewhat different. …

Good Sense Dept.

     Good sense often seems to have been anathematized, if not outlawed. It’s still possible to have good sense, but to speak good sense where others can hear is becoming increasingly dangerous. It can cost you everything: Your family, your friends, the good will of your neighbors, your occupation, your business associations. Now and then …

And Coming…

     This one should shock any man of good will:      Police are investigating reports of an assault at a Springfield [Ohio] Elementary School involving two groups of students.      Monday morning Springfield police were called to Kenwood Elementary School about an incident that happened during recess Friday, according to an incident report obtained through …

For The “Whites Are Inherently Racist” Crowd

     I can’t imagine how any of you could justify this: Equity… pic.twitter.com/F1oBFQfDaH — @amuse (@amuse) February 11, 2023      …but you’re welcome to try.      I don’t see how whites can share a country with savages like this. They simply must go, one way or another. And I don’t care what anyone thinks of …

The Ugliest Front In The Race Wars

     Full disclosure: I’m married. I’m not going anywhere except to the grave. Hopefully, neither is my wife. So you wouldn’t think the subject of racial preferences in dating would be of intense personal interest to me. However, as it happens, I have some relevant experience with interracial dating: all of it bad.      It’s …

War Against Whites News

     This is for the moron who called me a racist — Oh boo hoo! I’m gonna cry! — for this piece:      Have a nice day, Anonymous asshole.

An Idea With Some Odd Historicity

     Revolver News has the idea:      Want to strike a blow against cancel culture and the power of the media? Then don’t simply complain, do something: Make it legally risky to throw around the allegations that are a canceller’s bread and butter. Expand defamation law, and make clear that bogus accusations of being a …

Separations

     (No, not “reparations.” Spelling matters at Liberty’s Torch. We’re carful about it. We proofread very carfully, both for spelling and to make sure we don’t any words out.)      These days it seems like every noisy group in America wants “our own space.” That means different things to different people, of course, but the …

Homicide Rates: Racism Or…Something Else?

     Jared Taylor has the numbers, courtesy of the FBI – and virtually no platform but BitChute is willing to host his presentation: BitChute embedding powered by embed.tube      The numbers tell quite a different tale from that purveyed by our mainstream media.

Unforced And Uncorrected Errors

     In his book In Pursuit: Of Happiness and Good Government, one of Charles Murray’s arguments for the policies he advocates is that they watch the correct “dependent variables:”      When the way we add up results is combined with the difficulties of operationalizing hard-to-reify constructs, the nature of what I call “the dependent variable …

The Political Function Of Racism

     I cribbed the title above from a chapter in one of the books on my Most Admired list: Jean-Francois Revel’s masterwork The Flight From Truth: The Reign of Deceit in an Age of Information. In that chapter, Revel does a masterful job of delineating the Left’s perversion of what was once a simple, precisely …
