My sister, who was a religious education director, taught me one good way to deal with problems: “If they keep bringing something they can’t agree on a solution to, appoint a committee.”
This obviously had nothing to do with the problem. What it did was stop two or three people from wasting hours arguing in meetings my sister had to attend, and let them yell at each other on their own.
We do exactly the same thing all the time, but we pay big money for the committee. The DEA is one of these committees. My sister’s committees cost nothing and made no problems. All of the committees, we form, the government organizations and lobbying groups, do a lot of harm and are hugely expensive.
More important, they get in the way of any rational approach to the problem. The DEA does a lot of public relations work with drug busts and politicians and respectable conservatives get to scream about he problem.
And the bureaucracy sprouts “experts.” People who have made a problem worse for many, many years become “experienced.”
I remember an interview with an expert, a judge who opposed minimum sentencing laws. He kept saying we should take his word for it, because he was “experienced.” He had been sentencing people for many years.
The interviewer tried weakly to explain to this imbecile that the whole minimum sentencing movement was directed against “experienced” people like him who were letting criminals off.
The judge didn’t even notice his point. The judge went in saying to the people, “YOU IGNUNT!” and he was experienced.
Never set up a program to deal with something if you don’t demand SPECIFIC results. Don’t set a program if you aren’t going to monitor it regularly and be willing to abolish it if it fails.
That not only does not deal with the problem, it creates a whole set of people who are paid NOT to deal with it. It licenses experts who will defend failure to the death.

Speaking of failures this article on multi-culturalism is MANTRA thinking and I respond to a non-white anti-white in the comments.

The white race has been swept out to sea in a riptide.
For we whites, this very much changes the calculations of what it makes sense to do.
The Establishment has no means of detecting these changes, which forces it to become ruthless and blind to ambit of the conflict it ignites.
Political Correctness is rule by practitioners of philosophy, people who are very cavalier about the procurement of peace. Yet at the same time, unaccountably, they are cowards.

Madhatter taking them to the ground at that thread, excuses for genocide are flying from the “cowards'” keyboards.

As of 10:05 CDT I get an error code trying to access taki mag, in my internet ignorance I wouldn’t rule out that I’ve been blocked in some fashion.
No doubt the respectables will always allow an anti-white to post at least implicity anti-white rhetoric, and no doubt Bugsers will always be banned.
That is why Respectables are our enemy, while anti-whites are our ally (temporarily), and thru the Left will we inject the MANTRA into mainstream discourse.
One day a lefty hate group will demand the Respectables to denounce the MANTRA, pray for the day.
So with that said I nominate Abe Foxman as the Anti-white of the week.

Simmons, that was a sweet thread at TakiMag. Hope everyone goes and “likes” the excellent work of Simmons and Madhatter. After what they did, there’s not much more to say. But of course that’s the whole point of posting the Mantra …
