Protesting Machete

One would think that a blogger at SF Weekly would be well disposed to locals protesting a movie that exalts populist racial violence and presents crude stereotypes of their ethnic group. But not, of course, when the protestors are White (in this case, AltRight's friend Andrew Yeoman). That doesn't fit the script.  

Writes Lauren Smiley,  

A group of white nationalists will protest the new Robert Rodriguez movie Machete -- which depicts a Mexican renegade attempting to assassinate an anti-immigrant senator played by Robert DeNiro -- at Bay Area cinemas this week. This gets even more interesting: The protesters will show up "armed" with machetes. Jessica Alba and Lindsay Lohan, beware.

Frequent readers of this site may recall the Bay Area National Anarchists -- BANA for short -- the white nationalist group that showed up at the May Day immigration reform rally at Civic Center Plaza to instead show support of the Arizona "papers please" SB 1070 immigration law. BANA founder Andrew Yeoman and two other members were allegedly beaten while leaving the rally by black bloc anarchists, two of whom are now charged with misdemeanor assault.

BANA is also known for showing up to protest the Folsom Street Fair. But they will be doing a warmup act from Friday to Sunday at movie theaters showing the slasher film in the city, North Bay and East Bay, Yeoman says, "along with like-minded individuals and grassroots organizations nationwide." He even started a Facebook page to promote the protest.

"We feel that this is an explicit threat to white folks," Yeoman wrote on the far-right blog Occidental Dissent, "and that it is necessary to send a message to moviegoers and the producers of this film that threatening people because they happen to be white is unacceptable."

Ms. Smiley treats all this as ridiculous or beneath her (the story is captioned "The nationalist doth protest too much, methinks..."). The thing is, despite a cleaned-up trailer, Machete is very much about an angry Mexican taking his revenge, and leading a violent Latino uprising, against Perfidious Albion. According to Alex Jones, who was leaked a script, Machete includes scenes of gringos crucifying Mexican Catholic priests and Mestizo mobs worshipping Machete as their savior.

It's worth noting that Machete was produced, in part, with tax-payer funds, via the Texas Film Commission, which operates out of Gov. Rick Perry's office. Lest Texas Whites subsidize their own slaughter, let's hope that the scenes depicted in Machete remain on celluloid.

Wholesome Machete

Red Phillips has noted that the new trailer for Machete is noticeably more wholesome:

I have seen two trailers for the movie Machete, one before Predators and one before The Expendables. Neither had any hint of the hate whitey element that characterized the “Arizona Edition” of the trailer that came out after Arizona passed their new immigration law. As I predicted at the time (see link above), that take on the movie was so inflammatory that it couldn’t help but alienate a sizable portion of its intended audience. I suspect some people recognized the push back that trailer caused and have sanitized the official version.

So that moviegoing Whites won't get spooked, Hollywood execs have apparently decided to depict "Machete" as a down-on-his-luck special agent with a heart of gold. One doesn't get the impression that the film has anything to do with immigration, race, and the assassination of a populist White senator.  

Arizona Edition: 

Heart-warming version:

To be honest, as much as Machete offends my aesthetic taste, I hope as many White Americans as possible get duped by the new trailer and go see this film. It might bring them closer to recognizing that the media and political establishment thinks of them as "the expendables."

Has Rush Discovered HBD?

Serious discussion of the reality of genetic differences seldom reaches a mass audience, much less the largest one in talk radio, but Rush Limbaugh gave 20 million Americans a lesson in human biological diversity last Thursday.

On August 5, Limbaugh delivered the monologue “Life is Not Fair.” He was so pleased with the result he posted a transcript on his website. It revisited one of his favorite topics:

I've made the point throughout my career, the undeniable truths of life, many monologues on this program, that life is not fair by definition. Life isn't fair. I mean, it just isn't, and there's no way that you can change certain aspects that make life unfair to make them fair. Life is not equal.

He recounted economic, moral, and genetic disparities to show it is life, not the U.S. Constitution, that is unfair. Among his examples were professional sports stars:

Athletes are another thing. Champions are born. They are not made in the weight room. They are not made on the practice field. It's honed and it's practiced and it's improved, but champions are born. If you can't run a 4.2 40, nobody can teach you how. If you can't throw a baseball 100 miles an hour, nobody can teach you how. It's not fair. Some people can and some can't. It's not because the Constitution or the country's unfair.

Rush isn't speaking as a novice. He worked for the Kansas City Royals, lost his post on Monday Night Football for non-PC comments, and attempted to purchase the St. Louis Rams only to be blocked on the basis of lies about race. Rush knows sports.

The New Brownshirts

Via the National Policy Institute, here's an amusing video of Mexican Brownshirts who came out at a recent Tea Party rally in Anaheim. It's funny how even minority groups that imitate fascism complain about white racism.

The Kobe Riots

In scenes reminiscent of the 2005 Paris riots, the Wretched of Earth were out and about celebrating the LA Lakers' basketball victory.

Imagine what they'll do when the state of California starts giving them IOUs in lieu of foodstamps.

Mexico: Rush Limbaugh's Ideal

A Hispanic blogger is upset that other Latinos won't claim their Native American heritage.  Watch the first few minutes and you'll get the idea.  



What's funny is that Mexico has accomplished what Rush Limbaugh and other "right wing extremists" want for the US. The radio host was encouraging his listeners to check "other" on the race question on the 2010 Census and write in "American."  Mexicans identify with their country and language-the ideal of the American Right.  

I wouldn't be too hard on these people though, as I've seen segments on the Tonight Show where whites didn't know they came from Europe.  It used to strike me as a little weird that there were people out there who had no curiosity about where they originally came from before my view of mankind became much more realistic.  I still find a future where there are only individual and familial physical characteristics but no national ones sad though.

Is McCain Mad at Mexicans?

John McCain's latest campaign ad.



Now most people probably believe McCain is simply a liar and I've previously taken that position. But the more I think about it, the more I suspect that he may just be mad at Mexicans.  See this article from last year.  
John McCain sounds angry and frustrated that, despite the risks he took in pushing immigration reform, Hispanic voters flocked to Democrat Barack Obama in last year's presidential contest. McCain's raw emotions burst forth recently as he heatedly told Hispanic business leaders that they should now look to Obama, not him, to take the lead on immigration.

The meeting in the Capitol's Strom Thurmond Room on March 11 was a Republican effort led by Sens. McCain of Arizona, John Thune of South Dakota, and Mel Martinez of Florida to reach out to Hispanics. But two people who attended the session say they were taken aback by McCain's anger...

"He was angry," one source said. "He was over the top. In some cases, he rolled his eyes a lot. There were portions of the meeting where he was just staring at the ceiling, and he wasn't even listening to us. We came out of the meeting really upset."

McCain's message was obvious, the source continued: After bucking his party on immigration, he had no sympathy for Hispanics who are dissatisfied with President Obama's pace on the issue. "He threw out [the words] 'You people -- you people made your choice. You made your choice during the election,' " the source said. "It was almost as if [he was saying] 'You're cut off!' We felt very uncomfortable when we walked away from the meeting because of that."

In 2006 and 2007, McCain was a leader on immigration, but his efforts ran aground largely because his legislation included what many Republicans derisively characterized as "amnesty," a pathway to citizenship for the nation's estimated 12 million illegal immigrants if they took a series of steps to earn legal status.
If we think back to those previous attempts at amnesty, we need to remember that this was never an easy position for McCain to take.  He was pro-illegal immigration when he knew it would hurt him in the 2008 Republican primary.  So why would he go nativist now when he's meeting a challenger from the right whom he leads by double digits?  

McCain probably found most Hispanics he came into contact with over his life friendly and pleasant enough. He figured that they were the new white people and would eventually become middle class Republicans.  He risks his neck for them again and again and then finds out when he runs for president that no matter what he does, they still don't like him or conservative white people in general.  And here he is now worried that he's going to lose his Senate seat-retire in humiliation after being the Republican nominee for president two years earlier-and all because he tried to help those damn beaners who voted against him anyway!  To hell with them, McCain says, and dedicates the rest of his life to making sure no more of them get into the country.

Now it's pretty much impossible to picture Ron Paul or Tom Tancredo arriving at his views through such a vain and petty thought/emotional process, but McCain is a different story.

Sailer Hits the Mainstream

Nice to see Steve Sailer writing for CNN.  People are starting to finally recognize his genius.  

Washington (CNN) -- When Arizona police ask suspected illegal immigrants for IDs, they are protecting your grandchildren's economic future.

Three years ago, ETS -- the people who administer the SAT -- released an alarming study. It combined information on test scores with demographic trends to predict that the U.S. work force of 2030 would be less literate, less skilled and worse paid than the U.S. work force of 1990.

ETS reported: "[B]y 2030 the average levels of literacy and numeracy in the working-age population will have decreased by about 5 percent while inequality will have increased by about 7 percent. Put crudely, over the next 25 years or so, as better-educated individuals leave the work force they will be replaced by those who, on average, have lower levels of education and skill. Over this same period, nearly half of the projected job growth will be concentrated in occupations associated with higher education and skill levels. This means that tens of millions more of our students and adults will be less able to qualify for higher-paying jobs."

Why?

One word: Immigration.Since 1970, America's largest source of immigrants has been Latin America, especially Mexico. More than half of these Latino immigrants lack a high school diploma.

Compare the U.S. experience with Canada's. More than half of all immigrants to Canada possess a university degree. Half of all Canada's Ph.D.s are foreign-born.

Why does America choose poorly educated immigrants? The short answer: America does not choose them. They choose themselves.

In the last decade, half of all the immigrants to the United States arrived illegally...

By contrast, Canada (a country of 1/10 the U.S. population that takes proportionately many more immigrants than the United States) allows almost no illegal immigration.

The result: While immigration has enhanced the average skill level of the Canadian population, it has detracted from the average skill level of the U.S. population.

Many Americans carry in their minds a family memory of upward mobility...This story no longer holds true for the largest single U.S. immigrant group, Mexican-Americans.

Stephen Trejo and Jeffrey Groger studied the intergenerational progress of Mexican-American immigrants in their scholarly work, "Falling Behind or Moving Up?"

They discovered that third-generation Mexican-Americans were no more likely to finish high school than second-generation Mexican-Americans. Fourth-generation Mexican-Americans did no better than third.

If these results continue to hold, the low skills of yesterday's illegal immigrant will negatively shape the U.S. work force into the 22nd century.

The failure to enforce the immigration laws in the 1990s and 2000s means that the U.S. today has more poorly skilled workers, more poverty and more workers without health insurance than it would have generated by itself.

And they let him touch on all his main points besides genetics: demographics is destiny, Mexicans don't assimilate no matter how long they're here, even the praise for Canada's system.

Actually, David Frum wrote that.   Whether he reads Steve or came up with these conclusions independently, give credit where credit is due.  

If you keep telling yourself you live in a Stalinist country that doesn't allow debate, you start to hate the world and it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.  A good lesson for some of us to learn.

The Libertarian Problem, Cont.

A few weeks ago I argued that "the myth that libertarianism and traditionalist conservatism are one and the same is going to come crashing down when amnesty is brought before Congress." It appears I didn't have to wait that long, as libertarians are up in arms about SB 1070, recently passed in Arizona.

Reason puppets the PC lie about Hispanic crime in a piece attacking "Arizona's draconian new law" (the stastically-sound report "Color of Crime" notwithstanding):

The state has an estimated 460,000 illegal immigrants. But contrary to myth, they have not brought an epidemic of murder and mayhem with them. Surprise of surprises, the state has gotten safer.

Over the last decade, the violent crime rate has dropped by 19 percent, while property crime is down by 20 percent. Crime has also declined in the rest of the country, but not as fast as in Arizona.

Babeu's claim about police killings came as news to me. When I called his office to get a list of victims, I learned there has been only one since the beginning of 2008-deeply regrettable, but not exactly a trend.

Truth is, illegal immigrants are less likely to commit crimes than native Americans. Most come here to work, and in their desire to stay, they are generally afraid to do anything that might draw the attention of armed people wearing badges.

Still a "Maverick"

John McCain now believes in militarizing the border.  I wonder what changed his mind.

Does he know he's lying or does being a politician for a really long time make you able to convince yourself you believe something new whenever it's politically expedient?
