       "The real question should be how to reduce "White" (including
       Jewish) control over capital, as the owners of these companies
       are almost all "White" and their net worth totals in the
       hundreds of billions."
       The state can decide to nationalize the companies at any time:

       As part of demographic blueshift, why aren't you encouraging
       "non Whites" with Aryan blood to reproduce? Or do you see
       promoting immigration as a better strategy since the immigrants
       are already of working/fighting age?

       "why aren't you encouraging "non Whites" with Aryan blood to
       reproduce?"
       Ethically, I just cannot bring myself to explicitly encourage
       anyone to initiate violence.
       "Or do you see promoting immigration as a better strategy since
       the immigrants are already of working/fighting age?"therefore
       This too, but fundamentally immigration is redistributing those
       who already exist, thus avoids calling for adding new people.

       [quote]New American Leaders is a national nonprofit nonpartisan
       organization dedicated to training immigrants, refugees, and
       second generation Americans to run for office and manage
       campaigns. It provides the necessary resources so they can step
       into their own political power, NAL CEO and president Ghida
       Dagher said. The first thing that NAL does is ask participants
       to embrace their immigrant heritage as part of their new
       American background, rather than shy away from it.
       To date, New American Leaders has trained more than 1,700 people
       across the country, and of those, at least 500 are in the
       organization’s Elected Officials Network, its diverse alumni
       base.
       “Traditional political wisdom is that you have to look a certain
       way, you have to come from a certain kind of background, have
       access to a certain kind of network,” she said. “And so we have
       helped them redefine what [the] political system looks like.”
       ...
       In 2022, the average participant age was 30 years old, according
       to the organization’s own tally. Seventy-two percent of
       participants were women, 31 percent were LGBTQ+, and close to 30
       percent were AAPI. They came from 21 states and the District of
       Columbia, representing different racial, ethnic, religious,
       political, and socioeconomic backgrounds.
       ...
       The organization found that not one state has Asian American,
       Pacific Islander, or Latino representation in proportion to its
       population. To address this, the organization created a training
       specifically for Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific
       Islander women. The program is conducted by AANHPI women, and
       the case studies are about AANHPI women.
       NAL also found that unlike white state legislators, where men
       greatly outnumber women, new American state legislators have
       near gender parity, and Latina and Black new American women
       state legislators actually outnumber their male
       counterparts.[/quote]

       Continuing:
       [quote]The biggest hurdles NAL has heard from trainees, Dagher
       said, is the “polarized political lay of the land that we are
       all experiencing,” whether it is racism, Islamophobia, or
       anti-LGBTQ sentiment.
       ...
       Camilleri said people of all backgrounds are needed when making
       decisions about a community’s future, and that Michigan has done
       a much better job recently of electing immigrants and people of
       color at the local and state levels.
       “We know that when we are in the room, we’re making decisions
       that are reflective of all people’s voices, whether we’re
       talking about English language access, or Arabic or Spanish
       access on some materials,” he said. “Those types of decisions
       would never have been brought up unless people who come from
       communities like ours are in those spaces in the first
       place.”[/quote]
       Homework: using the above logic, whom do we need to permanently
       get rid of in order to end pro-Israel decisions?
       [quote]Anyone interested in civic life can participate by
       showing up, going to meetings, getting appointed to local boards
       or commissions, or running for office, Camilleri said. When
       ready to seek public office, people should then seek out
       mentorship from others, whether at the local level or higher, he
       added.
       Without this kind of active participation by people from all
       different groups, “we’re not going to have the government that
       serves us,” Camilleri said.
       ...
       “because we don’t see enough of us in these types of positions,”
       Yahya said. “I don’t see my people, specifically, Yemeni women
       and Yemeni Muslim women as well, out there being active and
       creating an impact and also creating spaces for people who are
       like me and have experienced things like me.”
       Her big role model since she was in middle school is U.S. Rep.
       Rashida Tlaib, the first Palestinian American woman to serve in
       Congress. Yahya said she shares similar values, background, and
       work ethic with Tlaib.
       “Rashida has my heart, she has my full heart. The way that she
       pulls herself and fights for everybody, has always been
       something that I looked forward to, and I’ve always wanted to
       become that type of person,” Yahya said.
       “Now being actually able to work with her and work alongside her
       and fight alongside her in these types of battles, it’s
       inspiring,” said Yahya, who was a U.S. House of Representatives
       legislative caseworker for Rep. Rashida’s district.
       “I also feel like I’m getting the necessary training to
       hopefully be able to be like her one day,” she added.
       ...
       She remembered coming to America as a refugee. On her first day
       of school in a conservative, all-white school in Ohio, everyone
       stared at her and made fun of her hair and clothes. She was 5
       years old.
       She ran to the bathroom, locked herself in and cried.[/quote]
       Homework: whom do we need to permanently get rid of in order to
       ensure that the above never happens again?
       [quote]Mohammad realized that there are connections between this
       childhood story and how persistent and determined she is today.
       ...
       “What drives me to run is when I see these marginalized,
       vulnerable communities that keep suffering. That is my drive to
       help them because their voices need to be heard,” Mohammad
       said.[/quote]

       @90sRetroFan Referring to your second to last comment, while I
       support anti-natalism on an ideological level, I find myself
       being vehemently opposed to it at this stage in the game.
       Anti-natalism (and being child-free more generally) is much more
       common nowadays due to the internet’s ability to help people
       effectively spread fringe ideologies, and I can’t shake the
       feeling that it’s causing human quality to decrease to even
       lower levels than it normally would have. At least back in the
       days where people had children simply because it was expected of
       them and they didn’t think too much about it on a philosophical
       or ethical level (or perhaps felt compelled to go against their
       intuition because they followed a religion or belonged to a
       culture that encouraged it), we had more of a fighting chance.
       But now you have leftists constantly telling other leftists to
       not have children, and even vegans telling other vegans that
       having children isn’t vegan. I feel like anti-natalism and
       child-free ideologies recently becoming widespread is extremely
       bad (at least until we gain state control over reproduction),
       lest the entire world be populated by the spawn of people like
       Elon Musk

       "lest the entire world be populated by the spawn of people like
       Elon Musk"
       I understand, which is why we must focus on the necessity of
       preventing them from reproducing. As long as we think we can
       stay in the game for another generation by also reproducing to
       compensate for our enemies reproducing (which we should have
       been preventing), there will never be any real urgency to
       prohibit or otherwise prevent our enemies from reproducing, and
       we will just keep kicking the can down the road while getting
       more and more used to initiating violence ourselve

       [quote]NEW JERSEY (VINnews) — Court documents reveal shocking
       allegations of a recorded conversation between the mayor of
       Linden and two school officials, discussing their preferences
       for school hires. The mayor, now a congressional candidate, said
       that he wanted to “keep our community being taken over by guys
       with big hats and curls.” He also said that you can sometimes
       figure out someone’s ethnicity just from their names.[/quote]
       :)
       [quote]In a whistleblower lawsuit filed Thursday, Paul Oliveira,
       former assistant school superintendent, accused Mayor Derek
       Armstead, school board president Marlene Berghammer,
       Superintendent Atiya Y. Perkins, and others, of blatant
       antisemitism. Oliveira claims that they deliberately excluded
       Jews from being hired by the school.
       ...
       “I don’t care what they are,” Armstead responded to the
       suggestion of Black or Haitian candidates. “If they’re from the
       general area here, that’s what we’re trying to build here.
       That’s what has to happen to keep our community from being taken
       over by guys with big hats and curls.”
       Berghammer asked if they had demographic data on the applicants’
       race or ethnicity.
       “You can almost figure that out by the name sometimes,” Armstead
       suggested.
       He also lamented a prospective maintenance worker who sold his
       house to someone in the Jewish community.[/quote]

       occurred to date:

       [quote]Momentum grows behind Democratic boycott of Netanyahu
       speech
       ...
       A growing chorus of House Democrats say they’re planning to
       steer clear of next month’s speech by Benjamin Netanyahu before
       a joint meeting of Congress
       ...
       “I won’t attend and turn my back towards him,” Rep. Hank Johnson
       (D-Ga.) said. “So I’m just gonna stay away.”
       ...
       “I’m not planning on attending, and/or I’ll be participating in
       whatever events there are to express that we want this war to
       end and we want both him and Hamas to agree to a cease-fire,”
       said Rep. Greg Casar (D-Texas), a first-term member.
       ...
       “I’ve spoken to several members in the House and the Senate,
       actually, who had gone to the last speech, the last time he was
       here, even though they had a lot of misgivings about it, and
       have been clear that they’re not planning to go this time,” said
       Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.), head of the Congressional
       Progressive Caucus, who noted that she will not attend the
       address.[/quote]
       :)
       Predictably:
       [quote]One exception to that trend is Rep. Steve Cohen (Tenn.),
       a Jewish Democrat who skipped the 2015 speech but plans to
       attend this year.[/quote]
       ::)
       [quote]“I will and I would say to my colleagues, this is about
       the United States and Israel, not about any individual leaders,
       and a key relationship as you know, a key ally for us in the
       fight against terror, including Iran and other Iranian-backed
       proxies like Hamas or Hezbollah or Palestinian Islamic Jihad,”
       Rep. Josh Gottheimer (D-N.J.) said on MSNBC when asked if he
       will attend Netanyahu’s speech.
       “I think hearing from a key foreign ally like Israel is
       critically important.”[/quote]
       Gottheimer was previously covered here:

       [quote]Prior research has shown that racial minority groups are
       more likely than Whites to hold negative views of Jews. We
       discuss several theories that may explain this phenomenon,
       including group competition, anti-White attitudes manifesting as
       antisemitism, spillover from anti-Israel attitudes, and more.
       Some theories, especially those developed in the mid-20th
       century, may be less applicable today, particularly to young
       adults. Through an original survey of 3,500 Americans, including
       an oversample of 18–30 year olds, we discover that antisemitic
       views remain far more common among minorities than Whites,
       especially among young people.[/quote]
