       If they want to call that “whiteness,” let them. That’s what I’m

       I do think of our people as the torchbearers of the human
       spirit, the Faustian civilization, people who carry something
       essential that nobody else does. We carry light into the
       darkness, even into outer space. “People of light” seems
       appropriate.

       We must have utter faith that we will survive, that we will be

       Western hubris endangers everyone:

       [quote]Whites have produced virtually all of the world’s
       creative geniuses; this has made Western civilization the
       wealthiest and most powerful that has ever existed.
       ...
       the best environmental policy is to encourage more industrial
       economic activity, i.e. more factories, more smokestacks, more
       burning of fossil fuels and more R & D, but only in white
       racially homogeneous societies.
       ...
       Environmentalists are too pessimistic; the large number of
       geniuses that have shaped the course of Western civilization
       since the time of Plato and Aristotle are the white man’s
       greatest resource. Average men see limited resources, but to a
       genius, the list of potential resources is infinite; for all we
       know, man’s next most vital resource may be all around us, like
       water or air. All that is lacking are the men with the IQ and
       creativity to discover novel industrial uses for them. The
       scientific method ensures that man is not the prisoner of his
       own biology or even the laws of thermodynamics. As Western man’s
       knowledge increases, his limitations quietly recede into the
       background.
       ...
       Conserving and increasing the white man’s stock of natural
       resources for future generations will not be achieved under some
       neoliberal system of world governance, where national interests
       are subordinated to economic ones, but by cultivating the white
       man’s most important resource, his ability to create the world’s
       great geniuses. This can only be done by implementing a
       pro-natalist policy that encourages high quality whites to have
       as many children as possible.[/quote]
       The irony is that this attitude is what got us into the current
       environmental disaster in the first place. If the Renaissance
       and consequently the Industrial Revolution had never happened,
       there would today not even be an environmental problem requiring
       a solution. And yet they claim the solution is more of the same
       thing that created the problem.....

       "discoveries in the field of formal sciences such as
       mathematics, where arithmetic, linguistics, and algebra predate
       the West by many years and originated in non Western cultures."
       While this may be true, we should nevertheless not encourage a
       "Who Discovered Most Stuff" contest in any form. The very
       premise of quantity of discoveries as a measure of
       civilizational superiority is itself a Western idea:
  HTML https://trueleft.createaforum.com/true-left-vs-false-left/truth-knowledge/
       Discoveries in formal sciences, while on the whole less
       practically dangerous than discoveries in empirical sciences,
       must ultimately be judged by the equivalent principle as we
       judge discoveries in empirical science: they are only positive
       if they can be applied to simplify thought to a greater degree
       than their existence itself might complexify it. For example,
       where we are already required to handle a certain type of
       calculation, a mathematical theorem that generalizes a
       relationship between elements such that all calculations of that
       type can be more conveniently solved using that theorem (we can
       think of this as "formal automation"), then discovering that
       theorem can be considered positive provided the above is its
       only effect. On the other hand, a theorem which makes possible a
       new type of calculation that previously did not exist (we can
       think of this as "formal machinery") is likely to be better off
       left undiscovered.
       I do not consider it a coincidence that, whereas formal
       automation comprised most mathematical discoveries in ancient
       times, a sudden explosion in formal machinery occurred during
       the Renaissance:
       en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_number#History
       en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_calculus#Early_Modern
       Nor do I consider it a coincidence how terrifyingly formal
       machinery empowers material machinery:

       If you really want to understand how imbecilic Duchesne is, read
       this:
       www.eurocanadian.ca/2019/01/transcendental-mind-europeans-stands
       -above-embedded-mind-asians.html
       [quote]The advocates of cross-cultural dialogue, anthropologists
       generally, and the multicultural West, think that understanding
       other cultures entails adopting the other culture's perspective,
       putting oneself inside the shoes of the other inhabitants, by
       bracketing one's own particular perspective. Westerners, they
       insist, must let go of their own cultural presuppositions, their
       individualistic and rationalistic outlooks, if they are to grasp
       the perspective of the Other. The Western worldview is only one
       among many, and using this perspective is bound to obfuscate
       matters, result in the imposition of one's concepts upon the
       other.
       What cultural relativists have failed to understand is that only
       the West developed appropriate philosophies, disciplines
       (ethnography, anthropology) and methodologies (pragmatism,
       historicism, hermeneutics) to understand other cultures and
       other historical epochs, because only the West produced a
       transcendental mind able to stand outside its own cultural
       norms, understand how it is bounded by a particular context. In
       this respect, insofar as the Western self learned to grasp the
       limitations of its thinking, it learned to stand above any
       limiting context, and thus demonstrate its unconditional
       character.[/quote]
       In other words, he himself instantly commits [in bold above] the
       very thing that the anthropologists explicitly warn him not to
       commit [in italics above], while thinking that by doing so he
       has discredited the anthropologists, when in reality it only
       proves the anthropologists all the more correct (in foreseeing
       that he cannot help but be tempted to do so)!
       And the rest of his article is just repetition after repetition
       of his exact same mistake using different examples, while
       sincerely believing he is writing something insightful!
       (He is also wrong to call all who disagree with him "cultural
       relativists". Cultural relativism is the claim that there is no
       way to determine superiority between different cultures. It is
       perfectly possible to believe that superiority between different
       cultures can be determined, without believing that superiority
       must be judged by Western standards!)

       punishment in Hell) in the mental processing of the higher brain
       centers of aristocratic men, damping down the instinctive
       appetite of the lower parts of the brain for multiple
       mates.[/quote]
       No it didn't, Duchesne! All it did was to encourage men to
       pump-and-dump their multiple mates, which enabled the
       rich/powerful men to go through even larger numbers of women
       than would have been possible if they were required to formally

       more energy than would be necessary at lower heights.
       Furthermore, a skyscraper consumes a lot of electricity because
       potable and non-potable water has to be pumped to the highest
       occupied floors, skyscrapers are usually designed to be
       mechanically ventilated, elevators are generally used instead of

       extent. Non-white people being killed is what gets the media the
       most attention, and is also what brings the nation closer to the
       collapse that (((they))) want. But where were you when any of
       these non-white people were being killed? I never saw you
       spreading your condolences and condemning the mistreatment. If
       they really believed in the whole “Love for your own race

       black lives do in fact matter before bringing any of these cases
       of white people being killed to light. But for 99% of these
       people, it’s either complete silence or they post edgy memes
       about the incident. So yeah, screw the whole “white lives
       matter” nonsense. It almost comes off as narcissistic how much
       they pull the “Oh yeah? Well what about these white people?”

       there’s a king waiting to rise.
       The problem of each European being a king, or at least a

       Our history books tell us the ancients were not technologically
       advanced. Hmmm.......

       ‘Ancient Aliens’ Needs to Stop Erasing Non-White Cultural
       Excellence
       [quote]You might think that History Channel’s Ancient Aliens is
       nothing more than a kooky guilty pleasure. After all, what’s the
       harm in letting a couple of camera-ready quacks share their
       completely unproven theories about aliens visiting ancient
       civilizations and gifting mankind with their superior knowledge?
       The problem is that the basic concept of Ancient Aliens is,
       well, rather racist. The implicit suggestion that ancient
       cultures, often non-white ones, would be incapable of advanced
       art, science, or architecture is problematic, to say the least.
       It’s a blindspot perpetuating the insidious idea that non-white,
       non-modern, and even non-Christian peoples were intrinsically
       dumb, when we have ample evidence to the contrary.
       Yes, Ancient Aliens is not a guilty pleasure as much as its a
       troubling reminder of the disrespect we show non-white
       cultures.[/quote]

       Has this been brought up yet? This is like the archetypal
       Western mentality--designing a machine which is as complex as
       possible in order to do a simple task, in order to show off
       one's ability to create complex machines.
       [quote]A Rube Goldberg machine, named after American cartoonist
       Rube Goldberg, is a chain reaction-type machine or contraption
       intentionally designed to perform a simple task in an indirect
       and overly complicated way. Usually, these machines consist of a
       series of simple unrelated devices; the action of each triggers
       the initiation of the next, eventually resulting in achieving a
       stated goal. In the United Kingdom, a similar contrivance is
       referred to as a "Heath Robinson contraption" after cartoons by
       the illustrator W. Heath Robinson. [/quote]

       But never forget, Jews do not care about money at all, it's just
       a stereotype according to Foxman:

       Never mind the fact that so many Jews have "Gold", "Silver", and
       "Ruby", in their last names.
       Here's Abe Foxman:
