Cold Eye Nausea

What is the difference between a cultural outlook and a prejudice?

There is none. Not only is there no difference, but only the most nauseatingly ignorant person thinks there is.

I made my living for decades operating among highly intelligent, ruthless people who wanted my blood. That is an experience that makes you instantaneously boil things down to basics. It doesn’t take long for you to stop noticing whether the person you are talking to uses big words or has an accent; all you learn to notice is whether he is buying what you say or not, whether what he is saying is drivel or not.

So almost everything that impresses other people completely disappears for you. In such a raw fight for power, you not only ignore people’s pretenses, at some level you don’t even notice them at all. Let me give you a shocking example of this.

Have you ever been standing in a line at a supermarket and seen a charming baby on in a crib? Us older folks do. But instead of grabbing at the child, a mature person looks it in the eyes and grins and maybe says some words. Very often this is delightful to the infant, and they grin and kick and blow bubbles.

Have you ever seen a respectable conservative when a liberal praises him for being “cultural” instead of “prejudiced.” It takes a very experienced, cold, professional eye to see how exactly a Buckley reacts the reaction of that baby being smiled at by an adult.

A Buckley, senior or the departed senior, does his own version of grinning and kicking and bubbling at the mouth. So does every respectable conservative. You see, the liberals who call the shots have the same frigid professional eye that I do. This reaction to liberal praise is the sine qua non of being given the absolutely essential credentials of being labeled a “respectable” conservative by media liberals.

So a Buckley will bubble and grin and kick in an entirely different way. Me will not be wearing a diaper, but an expensive suit as approved in New York and New England. He will raise his eyebrows in the way he would expect one of his gods, an Ivy League WASP or a Jewish Intellectual, would expect him to.

Where the baby goes “Goo!” the Buckley will use big words.

But to a really cold, professional eye, all this is superficial. In fact, you learn very quickly it is fatal to let these superficial differences impress you at all.

This very hard-learned ability to see right through the superficialities becomes automatic, and it is absolutely essential if you are to be hired and trusted at high levels. People with power and money don’t hire people who don’t have this Cold Eye.

But, in all honesty, this Cold Eye has certain drawbacks you don’t see until you have been through the mill and developed that Cold Eye.

Once again, I am not being cynical, but dead honest: One of the things that comes with this Cold Eye is nausea.

In my seemingly endless list of life experiences, I once worked in a retarded home. My stomach is churning right now as I try to write this down. No matter how hardened you are, that room full of grown men in diapers, the few extreme retards who make it to beard-growing age, makes your stomach turn. They are smiling, every one of them, delighted to see you. You CAN’T hate them.

But I will never forget that one of the most extreme bleeding-hearts I even knew saw them and said, Bob, I never thought it would be possible that I would ever agree with the Nazis about euthanasia in any case, but God help me, I would do it to these people.”

Now you get an idea why the Cold Eye carries with it a threat of nausea.

It is critical to understand that there is not a bit of cynicism in what I am saying. It is a REAL problem for me. With my combined experienced and the Cold Eye I could not help developing, watching a respectable conservative react to a liberal telling him he Cultural and not Prejudiced is literally nauseating. I can’t help it and I certainly don’t LIKE it.

You see, a Buckley or a Hannity or a respectable conservative Southerner looks at an establishment liberal exactly the same way that baby ion the supermarket looks at me. Hannity and Buckley and a Southern apologizer have EXACTLY the same attitude to Ivy Leaguers and Jewish Intellectuals that that baby has to me. To Buckley, who is not tainted in his own mind with a Southern family but is also Catholic and IRISH, of all things, the true Yankee or the true Jewish Intellectual is the True Adult, the True Final Judge.

This was true of Buckley, it is far more true of somebody down the line like Hannity. Buckley senior must have pointed out a thousand times that he was born in NEW YORK. He and his family never allowed anyone to call their background without answering, ANGLO-Irish.”

To someone with my Cold Eye, these inferiority complexes stand out like a black man at a Nuremburg Rally.

Too often, this reaction to respectable grin and bubbles at any liberal praise really reminds me of those smiling men in the diapers, and I anteing cynical and it IS a problem for me.

White Alarmists

Walter Williams pointed out that “What people label a stereotype is usually just an unpleasant fact”

I black man can get away with that, just as Jesse Jackson was able to admit that he was relieved when the footsteps he hears behind him at night are made by WHITE man. That is stereotyping, that is blatant

It is also true.

I said below that Orientals have a stereotype of being relatively placid. As anybody who was in Nam will tell you, that is not a universal Oriental trait. But a couple of doctors, an Australian man and Chinese woman, did a study on this which involved a comparison of Oriental and “Caucasoid” newborns reaction to swaddling, and came to a statistically significant demonstration that, in fact, there is genetic truth to that stereotype.

Routinely, any such large statistically significant is repeated immediately to check it out. You have a guaranteed journal article if you do it quickly before everybody else does. This one was not repeated.

At all.

Nor was it disputed.

Gator, on the other hand, is a white alarmist. Teddy Roosevelt was an alarmist back when pollution outside factory gates was almost unknown. Oriental calm is not conducive to such alarmism.

Take a part-Oriental example. The Polynesians on Easter Island fished to provide their protein. Then there was apparently a competition to build those huge stone men. To win, the chiefs cut down every tree.

EVERY tree.

No more canoes. No more fish.

As the last trees were being cut down, maybe come alarmist said something. His chief, Moala-Maou, said, “Well, if he wants trees let Malana-Meii save them in HIS territory. Don’t be an alarmist, the important thing is to WIN.”

The trees were gone and the fish were gone, so the Easter Islanders ate up all the birds. ALL the birds. “Leave birds for breeding? You’re an alarmist. Screw that. I’m HUNGRY!”

Instead of whipping us over what we did to the environments, we might see it as amazing that there was a major program of environmentalism at the beginning of this century, when robber barons had a power they have not had before or since.

Westerners were astounded when they went to Asia and saw Buddhas, Shinto gods, and Confucian representations on family along with crucifixes. True, Classical society had something similar. But when the Persians invaded Greece they burnt the pagan temples for exactly the same reason Zoroaster’s inheritors, the Christians, did.

Judaism became monotheistic half a millennium after Zoroaster died.

This line of reasoning leads to a really strange conclusion. Westerners are alarmists and extremists. We insist on ONE truth.

And here is the strange conclusions: Isaac Newton, Galileo and the Church people who persecuted them came from the SAME source. Orientals can talk all day and not insist on any conclusion. But once Newton and Galileo got hold of the law of gravity or that Dutch invention the telescope, it had to apply to the whole universe.

But the Church could not allow these IMPLICATIONS in THEIR universe, any more than Westerners could understand Buddha up there with the crucifix. It was totally alien to them. It was totally alien to the Western Church. It was totally alien to Newton. It was totally alien to Galileo.

A good Oriental philosopher would tell me to calm down. He would tell environmentalists to calm down. The air in China is beginning to show they are very calm indeed over there.

Confucius will tell you all about table manners. But his kind would never push the law of gravity without restraint the way Newton did.

More than one good Oriental has told me to calm down about the fact that the best economic indicator we have is skin color, though a surprising number of them, as indicated in my last article, see it clearly.

There is something aggressive about a white society that makes jumps others cannot. If you look, you will see it disappears with mixing with browns.

I am a white alarmist. No matter what our established church threatens, I will keep on saying that the future of the world rests on saving whites.

For Gator

Adam Smith wrote a whole long book on the simple observation of supply and demand.

Alfred Marshall had to write another book a century later covering that simple point even better.

Two or three thousand years, at least, before Smith and Marshall wrote merchants who survived took supply and demand as the basis for all their actions. In no age did anyone think it a smart idea to take coal to Newcastle.

There is only one law simpler and more universal than supply and demand. That is the law of gravity. It took the to work out the implications of THAT one. Every merchant took the laws of supply and demand for granted, but its IMPLICATIONS were not really laid out until 1776.

Every ancient man who carried home a dead animal felt the law of gravity, but no one studied its IMPLICATIONS until Newton.

Real advanced are made by looking at reality and thinking out its IMPLICATIONS. The Church fought Galileo and Newton because of the IMPLICATIONS their clear thinking brought out.

Asking “What are the IMPLICATIONS” the most common way of stopping independent thought. Today established faith, Political Correctness, is no different than earlier established faiths in this respect.

Gator sounds like what I used to hear in graduate economics: which set of WORDS will make us prosper? He wants ANYTHING but Race,

The Genome Project predictably told us that all humans are, variously, 99.999% (Bill Clinton), 99.8%, 97.5 % ore whatever you like, alike. That means that every moron, every congenital criminal, the strongest and the weakest, the healthiest and those who will die at age ten, are 99.99999999999% or whatever figure you care to throw out, alike.

In other words, it means nothing. Let me state the proposition I think needs thorough analysis. It is as obvious as gravity and as heretical as Newton.

The most accurate economic indicator of the wealth of nations is the color of the skin. All ancient civilizations that went down and STAYED are now brown-skinned. You can wake up in a country after a drunk, take a look at the skin color around you, and tell me what the country’s standard of living is.

Whatever the magic words may be, no brown skinned country ever seems to invoke them. As I said, California is turning brown and its economy has begun its steady slide beyond stagnation down to the level of a brown-skinned country.

The environment will be saved ONLY if we colonize space or make other technological breakthroughs. Environmentalists are already screaming about what Brazil is doing to the rain forests. yet they insist that the future ideal is a “new race” like Brazil.

If you think nature has been crushed so far, just wait until a world-wide Mexico, or even a Japan, which is still killing whales, gets hold of it. Have you looked lately at what China and Southeast Asia are doing to the air?

If they are 99.99999% like us, that .000001% must be a humdinger.

I don’t have to prove cause and effect here. This is an OBSERVATION that is as universal as gravity or supply and demand. Once again the only argument against it is its IMPLICATIONS.

In the post-petroleum age, we need INNOVATION. There was a time when Japan was expected to outrun the West. All it did was what any observation of the Orient would have predicted: Japan caught up and stopped.

Sort of like the people who refused to see supply and demand, or, for God’s sake, GRAVITY, sat around making up gigantic theories conjuring with Aristotle and Company which are laughable today.

So now we are talking about the end of oil while we are dedicated to getting rid of the only race which forms FUNDAMENTALLY CREATIVE societies. We can get rid of the race and conjure some words to take care of it all.

In fact, two Japanese heads of state got into trouble attacking the flow of Mexicans into the US. They both complained this inflow was lowering the average IQ here. That is simple arithmetic, but both were condemned as only an established church can condemn simple reality.

Most people could not understand this Nipponese concern. But it was important to Japan that the flow of technological advance they could see continue. A brown America was a threat to THEIR future.

Orientals tend to look at out obsession with their IQ scores as humorous. To them an IQ test if a puzzle. They are good at puzzles and they go to school twelve hours a day from Kindergarten to learn things by rote and to learn to solve puzzles.

This won’t do much good in a post-petroleum world. That requires societies that can CREATE, not just ADAPT.

Naturally, in just such a time, our established religion is dedicated to doing exactly the wrong thing:

AFRICA FOR THE AFRICANS, ASIA FOR THE ASIANS, WHITE COUNTRIES FOR EVERYBODY!

“It is said that there is this RACE problem. They say this RACE problem will be solved when the third world pours into EVERY white country and ONLY into white countries.”

“The Netherlands and Belgium are as crowded as Japan or Taiwan, but nobody says Japan or Taiwan will solve this RACE problem by bringing in millions of third worlders and quote assimilating unquote with them.”

“Everybody says the final solution to this RACE problem is for EVERY white country and ONLY white countries to “assimilate,” i.e., intermarry, with all those non-whites.”

“What if I said there was this RACE problem and this RACE problem would be solved only if hundreds of millions of non-blacks were brought into EVERY Black Country and ONLY into black countries?”

“How long would it take anyone to realize I’m not talking about a RACE problem? I am talking about the final solution to the BLACK problem?”
“And how long would it take any sane black man to notice this and what kind of psycho black man wouldn’t object to this?”

“But if I tell that obvious truth about the ongoing program of genocide against my race, the white race, Liberals and respectable conservatives agree that I am ANAZIWHOWANTSTOKILLSIXMILLIONJEWS.”

They say they are anti-racist. What they are is anti-white.

“ANTI-RACIST IS A CODE WORD FOR ANTI-WHITE.”

When Jenner proved the effectiveness of vaccination every Anglican pulpit in London rang with denunciations of his heretical procedure. When will Established Churches STOP being so predictable?

The Cost of Fads

The TV ad showed a modern American tragedy. A man was writing a letter to a friend talking about “you remember when we used to say WHEN we retire?” Not too long ago another ad showed a man trapped in a huge office building while another was shown happily walking around in the country in his retirement.

Today I was reading a feature on California as a failed state. For the first time in history, it has lost half a million in population after two centuries of steady rise. Economically it is in a state of collapse.

These are problems I predicted long ago. One comes from the Soylent Green Syndrome, back when everybody who got paid for social commentary predicted a population that was standing on each others’ toes. As always, this evil was blamed on WHITE people having children.

At the time of Soylent Green, Europe was undergoing a population bust unmatched since the Great Plague, but Europe is the most social fad-oriented people on earth, so commenters condemned child-bearing in Europe while the population explosion was in the third world. America went along, of course.

So now the generation that went along with the Soylent Green fad can’t retire.

Poor babies!

But there was another fad that was supposed to take care of the Soylent Green one. Instead of having white children, we would take care of TWO guilt complexes by not having any white children and importing colored ones to pay off our retirement.

That would idealistically get rid of whites and at the same time make sue it wouldn’t cost US anything.

Perfect!

The Libertarians were ecstatic with that idea, open borders!

I pointed out the problem with the latter solution in a paper to an economists’ society which included Nobel Winners and then a chapter in my The New Right Papers, the latter in 1982 when this fad was becoming policy. The disaster I predicted is now shown in California.

You see, what the libertarians cannot see is that labor VOTES. California now has a Politically Correct voting majority which led to socialist mentality which led to the economic collapse described today.

So the end of retirement is simply the result of fads of the past.

By the way, there is no economic collapse in California. All that is happening is that a third world population is returning to a third world existence. It LOOKS like a collapse when a first world economy and government turns into a third world one, but it is not a collapse.

All that is happening is a demonstration of an obvious reality: when you move a third world population across an imaginary border, the country across the border becomes third world.

As I told them in 1982, it is the rankest kind of superstition to actually BELIEVE that a brown-skinned people will prosper because they have crossed a line where Magic Talisman called The Constitution or libertarian books exist.

You accept the fad, the pay the price.

But gee, Bob, it felt so GOOD at the time!

An Individual Point of View

One reason I see things clearly is because I see them from what Aleksander Solzhenitsyn in the Gulag Archipelago called “an individual point of view.” Few readers and no intellectuals understood what he meant by this.

Up until his time in the Gulag, Solzhenitsyn adhered to the established religion of his country, Marxism-Leninism. He thought Stalin was a thug and said so, which is what got him into the Gulag. But he considered Lenin the greatest man in history and it was his life’s work to write the definitive biography of that Saint.

What Solzhenitsyn meant by an “individual point of view” was what he later became: a Russian, not a Marxist. He saw himself as an individual with a, repeat A, meaning ONE, personal point of view: “an individual point of view.” Only then was he able to observe THE REST of the world accurately.

If you are part of the established religion, regardless of what that institution may be, you are not a part of the world or the people you are analyzing. You look down on others in the light of your own Final Truth.

Everybody is a provincial, but you cannot understand anything about real people unless you face the fact that you are a hick, too. The people who cannot understand reality at all are those who THINK the INSTITUTION they are part of does not have a “point of view.”

Those who have an institutional view analyze everything as a step up or down toward their Final Truth. They are the most extreme form of provincial. They possess a hickdom no real hick could even imagine.

And, unlike a normal hick, the institutional hick cannot imagine that he IS a provincial.

Basics

As children we used to sit around the sandbox creating castles, war-zones for army men, and sand bridges after a heavy rain. We played make believe and entertained ourselves for hours on end. Most don’t remember the boredom suffered as a child and the extent we went though to entertain ourselves, but this leads me to my point. Humans are intrinsically creative creatures and in the absence of expressed creativity, we are inspired to create.

When a mind is deprived of all outside influence it will create art, music, dance, literature, and countless other expressions and we can say these expressions of creativity are extensions of ourselves.

A large body of individual creativity can form a culture, and a culture is nothing more than an accepted collective expression of creativity.

The culture that is established by the people is always secondary to the people, as another race can have that culture. If the culture is destroyed, the culture will reestablish itself as long as the people who created the original culture exist.

Respectable conservatives like to say that it is all about culture and that they would gladly open the gates to let the barbarians though as long as they claim to profess the right words and ways. Respectable conservatives condemn to death the very thing they claim to protect.

A child at least defends his sand castle from those who seek to destroy it.

Why I Wrote About the March on Rome

Once again, let me explain why I wrote something.

Several times here I have discussed the fact that Mussolini almost missed The March on Rome that put him into power. He made a speech, probably not for the first time, that the Italian people should march on Rome and force a government that would GOVERN.

As I say, he had probably said that a hundred times. But this time it hit a note, and while Mussolini went about his routine, the March was building up and being organized. He found out about it at the last minute and rushed to lead it.

I am reminded of 1992 when Larry King asked Ross Perot if he would be willing to run for the presidency and Perot said yes. Within days Perot had a spontaneous national campaign organization and with in a couple of weeks he was way ahead in a three-way poll.

These are extreme examples, but a thinking person should see the importance of them. If the actual leaders have no idea what the unrest is like, if they come within view of taking power without even feeling the waves, how about the rest of us, especially the “experts?”

I have discussed the fact that as the USSR was going down cartoons depicted Estonians and Ukrainians demanding independence as drunks in Confederate uniforms. Within DAYS of that barrage of cartoons they began to pull out in mass.

These are giant examples. They have all been carefully forgotten. But there are endless smaller examples.

I have agreed with liberals that if Obama had been white it would have been a landslide. Bush left us both a financial crisis as big as any since 1929 AND an unsinkable, endless war with no exit strategy. EACH of those things took out a historical president who went from a landslide win to a landslide loss, Hoover and Johnson.

BOTH of them combined got Obama a respectable victory.

There has been talk about he tea parties, but you have no idea what is going on unless you see the world as I, and I hope WE, do. Once again, let me repeat what I have said many times: respectable conservatives have always been conservative respectable.

In respectable conservatives you are saying these are conservatives who are respectable. You’ve got their priorities backward. Their first and only real loyalty has been to respectability. National Review has always made it clear that they are part of the establishment first, that they will ditch anybody who really offends liberals. They are first and foremost respectable and any disagreement with Political Correctness is way down on the list.

What shocked the bejesus out of liberals was that a huge groundswell of those lamb like respectables suddenly became blatantly unrespectable, shouting, threatening, violently cowing their opponents the way only leftists have ever been allowed to do.

Every issue of National Review contains at least one apology for it.

No one can analyze this unless he looks at the examples of the March on Rome, Perot’s lead for the presidency which only a psycho could have screwed up, and the world press’s laughter at the idea that the Soviet Republics would secede.

Dave on PC Hypnosis

I wish there some way I could snap my fingers and magically make other people understand the importance and the implications of what BW is saying in this post.

Even among our BUGSTERS I doubt there are few who really get it.

I was fascinated by hypnosis. I read everything about hypnosis I could get my hands on.

I wanted to know the HYPNOTIST’S SECRET.

But I never really got a handle on it, until the “GREAT KRESKIN” gave away the Hypnotist’s Secret in testimony he gave at a murder trial in Spokane, Washington.
He was an expert witness and his purpose was to try to convince an idiotic judge how completely bogus it is to admit testimony obtained from witnesses under the influence of “hypnosis”. Kreskin explained that there was no way such testimony could be reliable because there was NO SUCH THING AS THE HYPNOTIC STATE. Kreskin explained to the judge that the “Hypnotist’s Secret” was all a con. “You simply have to understand the immense susceptibility most people have to the power of suggestion. People have low capacity for apprehending reality accurately. They can easily be tricked into believing anything.”

There I had it! The SECRET!

Now days I just love watching hypnotist’s stage shows. I never miss an opportunity. These shows are wonderful lessons in real politics.

I have come to realize that most of what people say they know about what is real is just the influence of suggestions they have received and are repeating.

Also, I hardly ever believe people when they relate events from their past. VERY FEW PEOPLE are capable of relating their past accurately. They simply believe they have experienced things that never happened and once more, they really and truly believe it.
There is nothing that can be done about this aspect of human life. But if you are real player, you have to be keenly aware of it. People are a lot less connected to reality than you think.

Society’s perceptions are not to be trusted.

This is a wonderful post by BW. It is truly extraordinary.

I hope our BUGSTERS get its importance. Getting stuff like this is what makes you a PLAYER. It is what puts you in power.
