One thing everybody knew about Napoleon was that he was a midget.
As usual the lesson I want to point out to you about this has nothing to do with Napoleon.
The man was actually dug up and autopsied!
But the story that he was about 4’10” tall made it into a quote from his autopsy report I once saw.
The word is now that they quoted a British length that made him 5’2” instead of the actual over 5’6”, which was actually slightly above average in his age.
You will probably find all of these somewhere in Google, each of which could be quoted to make your point.
It’s not as if nobody ever SAW Napoleon. Half of the British aristocracy went over and met him personally during the one year of peace under the Treaty of Amiens.
Simply the complete disagreement and movie after movie showing Napoleon as short — especially Time Bandits — makes it clear that somebody is DEAD wrong.
Once you ask “Why is information produced?” you have the answer: A midget Bonaparte is more INTERESTING than one of average height.
But what most people don’t ever understand is the POWER of “Why was this information produced?”
Most people before the Internet could not have imagined that leading experts and witnesses produced AUTHORITATIVE statement that he was midget or above average height.
People laugh at us when we explain HOW mistaken information is. And our entire world view is determined by information a lot harder to get hold of Nappy’s vertical.

I wonder what other myths are recorded as History?
#2 by Genseric on 01/28/2012 - 9:39 am
The Civil War was about slavery.
Lincoln was a pious man.
Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu was a Saint (she NEVER sinned).
Hitler was Evil personified.
Stalin was simply a patriot defending his homeland.
The U.S. wanted NOTHING to do with WWII.
Martin Luther King Jr. was a Holy Man.
Anti-racists don’t HATE. They Love.
Epiphany was a BUGSter.

IMO BUGsers can be seen as the adults in the room, perhaps not seen in the West since 1945 when only adolescents needed to apply. (and why Obama’s SOU reads at an 8th grade level)
Most of these lies can circulate in a sea of immature humans not ready or willing to be responsible humans.
We like our pre- WWII ancestors have outgrown our college educations.

Any of these story makers engender real respect of real adults and not that of a patronizing mother telling her child that her 1st grade hand outline turkey is great art? Of course not.
When real adults stand up an restore order the children obey and the children love it.
Take the myths of human lamp shades, gone, the infallible Tuskeegee airmen, gone.
Jews now free from their evil brethern’s fanciful tales of one day meeting Aunt Elda at the antique store and niggers free to dribble a ball and not having to actually fly a complicated instrument of the white devil’s genius.
There is so much power out there that once you grow out of your college education it is as if “2001 Space Odessy’s” final scene is upon us.

The Civil War was about slavery…
(oppression and genocide of non whites by whites)
Hitler was about also genocide, but of jews (oppression and genocide of non whites by whites)
The history of Inidans in America was all about the genociding of non whites by whites, and not much else)
The history of liberties in America, civil rights, is about non whites making all people free (by making a non-white majority left-right coalition warfare-welfare state government).
—- So all ms history has only one exact same point to it.
Since Vatican II, all religion also has the exact same point.
If everything boils down to proof of the same point, then isn’t the history “about” the principle it seems to prove, much more than the “facts” (the highly selective facts) that always prove the one establishment point.
It’s not just that Hitler was “an evil man,” but he was evil in a very particular way, and exhibited the exact same “evil” as others such as “colonists,” or “generational americans,” (carriers of that historical narrative), or pioneers, etc.
slavery and the holocaust are
#6 by BGLass on 01/28/2012 - 11:05 am
…are the two main memes that are discussed.
another is the “white genius killer,” who is featured in so many movies and films.
one might better ask: are there ANY stories AT ALL that do not exist to make this exact same main point? (exhibit this one-sided expression of ethnic-identity-based perception)
is there a newscast, a movie, a t.v. show, a poem— that does not boil down to the movie Edmond and ecumenical councils?

There are no “Americans”, only U.S. Citizens, and there is no such land or country as “America”, only THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA (all caps). Pursuant to the 14th Amendment, anyone born within the borders thereof, is termed a U.S. Citizen.
Most use slang without even realizing it!
#8 by stradivari on 01/28/2012 - 9:15 pm
You can pretend all you want. The Constitution says “We the People” and “our posterity”. Your so-called 14th Amendment says that “all persons born or naturalized”, as in citizens, living* in the same state of the country pay the same taxes. This ofcourse makes our current ‘proggressive’ tax system unconstitutional.
Your 14th DOES NOT say what CONSTITUTES a born or naturalized “person”(citizen). I think you and all the other Idiots should try reading it again.
* As opposed to a US citizen living in say, Sweden. They would obviously pay taxes in Sweden.
P.s. don’t know why I bother, seeing how your probably an anti-white fraud.

Good catch. I was wondering what this guy was about. I thought he might just be a little slow or stuck in a mental rut but now it’s pretty clear that he’s just an anti-White trolling us.

“History is a set of lies that people have agreed upon.” – Napolean
#11 by ANOTHERWHITERABBIT on 01/28/2012 - 2:08 pm
maybe they were practicing changing the facts and seeing if it sticks even after bob says neopolian was average height i still see him as short because my brain registers him as the way the media portrays him. It seems like they were practicing demoralization by attempting to own the truth. I always you napolean as a point that he killed many europeons and ruthlessly killed many people just as hitler but how come all you see is comedic short man with small man complex or (Napolean) complex my chiwawa is named Napolean for this reason. It hides the fact that he killed millions of people but emancipated the jews so lets make him short and comedic and use that to hide the fact that he was responsible for millions of deaths just as hitler. seems like they were practicing changing facts in the broad game or our white demoralization
#12 by Gavin on 01/29/2012 - 3:18 am
Nowadays someone will mention that Napolean is short to make a joke or because their in some other opportunity to make an impression on people using it. They are not interested in accuracy.
Often times someone else will chime in that Napolean was not short and was average or above average height for his time and place. They say this to show how informed and intelligent they are. Accuracy is not their primary objective.
I see parallels in things that show up in regards to race but unfortunatly I seem to have a difficult time viewing our battle from an objective outsiders perspective where I can easily spot these things, perhaps I am too emotinally invested.

Do not trust either Television or the Movies. That is where most people get their false ideas about history from.
#14 by The Dude on 01/29/2012 - 7:28 am
History and news are written by the victors. Here are few things, given enough time and media exposure, the average buffoon will come to believe as factual: 1)Thomas Jefferson screwed only black women, 2)The Tuskegee Airmen won WW2, 3)Alexander the Great was only a fag, 4)Obama saved the country from white ignorance, 5)The Chinese invented pasta and made a killer gravy….. If I’m missing the point, some things are born in the mind of the enemy and some things are real. Everyone has a choice after that to either accept or reject….

There is nothing “elite” about the “Elites”.
They will always attempt to belittle all the rest of us, because there is nothing they can do to elevate themselves.

a general trend in public (tax paid) employees. when pay is reliant on begging for money (essentially), the recipients often put down “the public” in order to obscure their financial relationship with them and keep their self esteem intact. Feeding on the public, then looking at how the impoverished public really can’t afford you, that they can’t buy for themselves what you buy for yourself with their money— it’s a ugly relation that must be obscured. one root of white privilege campaigns. the ones being taken from can ‘always afford it,’ and ‘deserve whatever they get,’ and are ‘stupid” anyway, ppl must be assured (apparently).
