When the British-Canadian psychologist J. Philippe Rushton (1943-2012) proved—almost 30 years ago—that blacks are evolved to “live fast and die young,” he was threatened with prosecution, declared a “loony” by Ontario’s Attorney General, and forced to conduct his University of Western Ontario lectures via video to avoid disruption and violence. Perhaps something has changed for the better since 1989:  a study published this week by a group of British researchers, further proving Rushton’s argument, has been reported in the Main Stream Media with no threat to the lives of the academics involved at all. [Dementia rates higher among black people, new study finds, By Alex Matthews-King, Independent, August 8, 2018]

The scientists, based at the prestigious University College London, used a sample of 2.5 million UK residents, including over 66,000 dementia patients. They found that, of all the races in the UK, blacks have the highest rates of dementia. [Trends in dementia diagnosis rates in UK ethnic groups: analysis of UK primary care data, By T.M. Pham et al., Clinical Epidemiology, August 8, 2018]

Rushton presented, back in 1989, and in more detail in his subsequent book Race, Evolution and Behavior, his “Differential-K Theory” of racial differences. He argued that all species—and all subspecies—are positioned on a spectrum between a “fast Life History strategy” (an r-strategy) and a “slow Life History strategy” (a K-strategy).

An r-strategy develops in unstable yet easy environment. In such an ecology, you could be wiped out at any moment, so you evolve to “live fast and die young.” Accordingly, you invest all your energy in mating—in order to have as many offspring as possible with as many partners as possible in the hope that some will survive. You invest very little energy in nurture, because such energy could easily go to waste.

This r-strategy is reflected in every aspect of your “life history”—you’re born younger, you reach developmental milestones younger, you go through puberty younger, lose your virginity younger, you age more quickly and you die younger. You also advertise your genetic quality as conspicuously as you can—as the end is always nigh—leading to large sexual characteristics, strong body odor, and, if you’re a peacock, a massive, colorful tail.

We routinely talk about America’s open borders, but the visa overstay method of invasion is even more unprotected: there’s no system to check on exits at all of foreigners who enter. As a result, hundreds of thousands enter the US legally on a temporary arrangement, but don’t leave, thereby becoming illegal aliens. As the Washington Examiner recently noted, “More people overstayed their visas in 20...

Earlier this week the NYT ran a weak oped from a “Chicago-based” journalist inanely criticizing Rudy Giuliani’s comments on Chicago’s problem with locals shooting each other. But that one didn’t lie hard enough, apparently, so now they are back with a second oped, this one from a “data journalist” “based in Chicago” that’s pretty much identical to the last one. Too Many Politicians Misuse and A...

From National Review: Sarah Jeong Is a Boring, Typical Product of the American AcademyBy HEATHER MAC DONALDAugust 8, 2018 3:32 PM To decry her anti-white ‘racism’ gives her too much credit for originality. The most significant feature of Sarah Jeong, the New York Times’ embattled new editorial board member, is not that she is a “racist,” as her critics put it. It is that she is an entirely typica...

It’s interesting to see the New York Times sympathetic approach to Lebanese citizens who feel overwhelmed by the million-plus horde of Syrian refugees who have flooded their nation. The Lebanese are angry about downward pressure on wages, worsened crime, stressed infrastructure, and other problems caused by the foreigner invasion. In comparison, the Times’ attitude toward Americans has been less ge...

Anniversary

It’s surreal to have lived through an event that is even now being mythologized. It’s nothing short of infuriating to see a mythology growing up that is almost an exact opposite of what actually happened. The lies being told about what happened at the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville VA a year ago this weekend are so outrageous and so demonstrably untrue that it makes you question all of history.

What other historical events and movements have we been lied to about? And can you prop up an entire failing system based on lies?

Main Stream Media coverage throughout the country is being dominated by commemorations of the ill-fated rally [Charlottesville making final preparations for anniversary of deadly rally, by Talya Cunningham, WAVY, August 10, 2018]. The media is also eagerly hyping the second “Unite the Right 2” rally in front of the White House even though few participants in the original rally seem to be going [It’s right there in front of the White House.’: Is D.C. ready for Unite the Right? By Caroline Simon, USA Today, August 10, 2018]. The obvious intention: to claim the Alt Right has been defeated after almost no one shows up.

But it’s more likely that patriots have simply learned their lesson: not to put their trust in the law, the police, or the First Amendment. Flagrantly-biased law enforcement since last August has convinced many on the Dissident Right that they not only will not be defended by police, they will not even be permitted to defend themselves. Since the release of the Heaphy Report on the events in Charlottesville, it has been undeniable that the local police department deliberately fostered a climate of instability and unrest so it would have an excuse to shut down the rally.

This chaos culminated with James Fields driving into a crowd of screaming protesters, an act which led to the death of Heather Heyer, now being celebrated as a martyr. Of course, as Ann Coulter bravely pointed out earlier this week, Fields had good reason to fear for his life. In the end, he may well be acquitted like George Zimmerman or found guilty of a lesser offense—unless, as Coulter half-joked, “his defense lawyer is planning on intentionally throwing the case for the greater good.” Of course, if Fields is acquitted, we can probably expect another riot.

Recently the Washington Post cooed of McAllen, Texas, ‘An all-American city that speaks Spanish’: Immigration isn’t a problem for this Texas town — it’s a way of life [By Kevin Sullivan, July 4, 2018] Steve Sailer responded savagely that while globalists cast the mass influx of Latinos as an “exciting social experiment with who knows what spicy, perhaps magical, outcomes in store for us,” the truth is that we already know what such an influx means for America.

In McAllen, located right on the Mexican border in the Rio Grande Valley, 84% of the population is “Hispanic,” and about 76% speak Spanish. It has lots of obese people [Wallet Hub study finds city of McAllen as one of the most obese cities in America, ValleyCentral.com, March 15, 2018] is the least educated city in America and is the worst city for residents feeling unsafe.

If you're worried about the social media monopolies censoring speech, just be happy they can't put you in prison.

Federal prosecutors are celebrating the one-year anniversary of the Charlottesville, Virginia, "Unite the Right" rally—isn't this the "paper" anniversary?—by indicting James Fields for "hate."

Fields has already been charged with murder in state court. (I would think that "hate" would be subsumed by a murder charge.)

But the federal "hate crimes" statute allows the feds to skirt the Constitution's ban on double jeopardy—at least for certain kinds of "hate."

To make their case, prosecutors did a deep dive into Fields' social media postings to prove that, yes, while he might have killed a white woman in this particular case, he's still a racist.
