Jason asked how I come up with so much to write about here.
My real problem is precisely the opposite.
In my mind I see myself a new tiger who has spent his life in the wild who is in a cage with tigers who were born and raised in the same cage and the cage has sat there in the same cave all their lives. The problem is not new things to talk to them aobut, the problem is to get them to understand the concept of that whole world out there.
All of my discussions have to begin at the bars. I have to explain, again and again, that beyond this cage there is a world. I must begin over and over and over by explaining how, if they ever walked outside, that there IS an outside.
The world really doesn’t stop over there where the cave bends out of sight. There, where the cave bends, if the spot I must lead them first, in every article.
In every age, “intellectuals” have been paid to provide the cage. The cage has been the purely Biblical cosmology people were burned for violating. The cage now is a Mankind History into which every new discovery must be crammed.
I have seen the cage walls of Political Correctness at least since I read “The Cry and the Covenant” when I was not yet twelve. I was perfectly aware that when I went from Pontiac, SC, to the University at age sixteen, I was simply stepping out of one Bible Belt and into another.
The big difference was that the Bible Belt at the University had no idea it was a Bible Belt.
Its Bible, “sophistication,” was the real truly True Faith, not that fake True Faith the peasants had.
There is more to write about out here than I could do in a thousand lifetimes.
What I had to learn was how to go back again to the that turn in the cave wall which you in the cage cannot see beyond, whether that turn is your Bible or your college education. Believe me, finding places to look outside of the different Bible Belts is no problem at all.
The big stumbling block is that curve.

We must speak out against Communist crimes as vehemently as THEY, the anti–Whites, speak out against Nazi crimes. It is the only way we can beat them at their own game. For too long, Joseph Stalin and his sins were airbrushed out of the narrative of the Second World War!

I looked up The Cry and the Covenant, and it is about a doctor who tried to teach the medical profession that washing hands would cut down on deaths for people with Puerperal fever – and they hated him for it. This despite studies at the time showing it cut mortality to 1%, from an average of 10-35%.
But in his own lifetime, he was driven crazy at the end, partly because no one would listen to him. This tragic soul spent the last 2 weeks of his life in an insane asylum that he was tricked into. He was in a straightjacket being doused with cold water as “treatment”. After 2 weeks, he died.
We don’t always treat out saviors well. It isn’t the average person that causes the trouble; it is the experts in the various fields rigidly guarding their Cages. And there is money and status to be had keeping people in the cage. Jesus had the same problem.
Reminds me of the recent article about Boyd, and the decision to choose between Being Someone or Doing Something. Doing Something doesn’t often get you the pats on the head from the self-sustaining keepers of the Matrix.
But, if we live in pre-revolutionary times, edging toward the real thing, we may be lucky enough to see the payoff of the Mantra in our lives. I don’t know how you guys have been so patient. I am ready for something to happen in the next few years (I know, maybe I’m dreaming), but having 800,000 people bother to sign secession petitions on the actual White House website, sure sends a symbolic symbol message and it is a way for people to get their nerve up for bigger things.
Maybe regular Whites are starting to poke their noses outside the cage a little as well.

R.D. Laing and Wilhelm Reich, yes both jews, were of use to me on that, Jason, particularly The Divided Self and The Murder of Christ— in those books, the idea that others saw that some “madness” is exactly what you describe, the isolation and invalidation of one lone man trying to hold onto a lone idea that was correct, or at least AS correct as the other ideas—and how the consensus trance of the others could push him over the edge.
And showing the concept of “either-or” thinking being silly. Like, man is “all good” or “all bad!” (like it’s the “enlightenment” VERSES “original sin!!” Or biology based “brain chemical” madness VERSUS environment. This whole thing is stupid polarized psychosis, (obviously) when the only real answer to everything is obviously “it depends.”
People seem terrified of “it depends.” It is easier for most to live in stupidity that does grave harm than to live with a little uncertainty. Deep down, it’s the fear of death, maybe. But the Reasonable fear of death is just that it might HURT, and you don’t WANT to do it, b/c you LIKE living, and maybe you’ll feel really lonely and abandoned. But that’s what it boils down to, really. Still, people seem to do anything but deal with this, including fling themselves at huge fantasy governments, pretending they are loved by them, and it will to do things for them, so it will seem there is always a cure, always help, etc.

Well here’s one bend I see around that others don’t: Wilhelm Reich, for all his kooky ideas, was a right-on-the-money genius about one thing: “body armor.” Something the white race would do well to check out after the present unpleasantness has been cleared up. Orson Bean’s unfortunately titled, “Me and the Orgone,” is a brief, enjoyable, and clear but idealized account of the topic.
Every culture needs a critique, but not by those who wish it harm.
One bend I wish whites would peer around a little harder is the bend at which Joos convinced us that cutting off part of our babies’ dicks was a real smart thing to do.
Even the understandings of us at Bugs are not so large, compared to all that needs to be understood.
Of course in whites’ present hypnotized state, in the U.S. the sexual mutilation of infants is no more a useful target than is the Holocaust®.

Our States don’t need the Federal Union.
On its own, the Federal Government is NOTHING.
All money comes from our States, so does the Federal Military equipment, and the troops.
By itself, the Federal Government does not even exist.
It is a paper tiger.

I get your well-made point but I must disagree a bit. The Federal Government is supposed to be the coordinating body for the states, providing the things for them that they cannot provide by themselves. That’s why the founders of this country created it. What we do not need is this anti-white, pro-white-genocide gang of Communists that pretend to be a federal government.

What a gem this blog is! I think it’s planted an indelible picture in my mind…a tiger in a cage (that would be myself), peering through the bars and seeing no further than the bend, and trying to leave the cage and follow Bob around the bend (Uh, unfortunate choice of words, but I couldn’t resist! Lol!)
It frustrates me tremendously that I don’t have the ability to see around that bend on my own (are there others here who feel that way?), and it frustrates me that I often have trouble understanding what I’m being shown when I’m led out of the cage to view the vista on the other side.
There’s nothing for it but to accept who I am and keep learning. It does help some that the more I learn, the more I can look down my nose at those who haven’t even a clue! 🙂
When talking to pro-whites or to friendly whites, I try to call on other feelings than that one.
Bob, thanks!
And I’m sure I’ll find occasions to post to some white anti-white, “You live in an intellectual cave, anti-white,” and link this blog for white onlookers to hopefully read.

I don’t know where to post this. It’s the first I’ve heard of the movement of newspaper sites toward having to pay to even read their content:
“More than 300 U.S. newspapers rolled out paywall restrictions as of Nov. 2, according to the trade publication, News&Tech. That’s more than 20 percent of the nearly 1,400 daily newspapers active in the U.S.”

This will affect us of course.

Speaking of caves, I’m afraid some pro-White groups are locked in them. TOO is currently featuring an article by an advocate of National Socialism. A lot of the posters there are either locked into a peculiar form of Christianity that no one has any interest in, or they are Nazi partisans (all 2 dozen of them in North America). There are good posters there as well, and they did allow one article on the Mantra, but more would be good (I believe another one was submitted but I never saw it run). It isn’t a good sign when TOO banned the use of the term ‘Nazi’ because one of their writers finds the term offensive to the image of National Socialism! It’s the kind of silly thing institutions do.
The same writer who wants to market Nazism to the American public, thinks that the term “genocide” is just too hard a sell – you figure out that logic.
I don’t know why most pro-White groups can’t create an image that resonates with the average American audience. And what I notice is that when you make this obvious criticism, they become furious! How dare you criticize their institution! They basically accuse you being EVIL and a HERETIC for questioning their ideology. By the way, I have never seen MacDonald do that.
If anyone comments on the obvious problems pro-Whites have had getting any traction over the last 60 years, it is seen as some form of disloyalty (institutional or ideological I suppose).
By the way, I have not accused anyone at these groups of being “race traitors”, nor would I, nor has anyone here done that. That should be obvious, but I saw a post that suggested we had said something like that (which I responded to). Just because I make fun of institutional or ideological silliness, doesn’t mean I think they are going to HELL. I just wish they would catch some snap.

TOO has been helping to advertise my book – Jack’s War – which contains the entire Mantra. I frequently use the Mantra on that site.

“I don’t know why most pro-White groups can’t create an image that resonates with the average American audience. ”
I think you have outgrown TOO and are just about ready, to move on to bigger and better things.
Starting a blog that has as its mission statement,
“To only discuss what is good for White people”,
is something White and Normal people, might flock to.

Hey, look at this by Mark Steyn which looks Mantra influence!
Everyone talks about this demographic transformation as if it’s a natural phenomenon, like Hurricane Sandy. Indeed, I notice that many of those exulting in the inevitable eclipse of “white America” are the same people who assure me that demographic arguments about the Islamization of Europe are completely preposterous. But in neither the United States nor Europe is it a natural phenomenon. Rather, it’s the fruit of conscious government policy.
According to the Census, in 1970 the “Non-Hispanic White” population of California was 78 percent. By the 2010 census, it was 40 percent. Over the same period, the 10 percent Hispanic population quadrupled and caught up with whites.
That doesn’t sound terribly “natural” does it? If one were informed that, say, the population of Nigeria had gone from 80 percent black in 1970 to 40 percent black today, one would suspect something rather odd and unnatural had been going on. Twenty years ago, Rwanda was about 14 percent Tutsi. Now it’s just under 10 percent. So it takes a bunch of Hutu butchers getting out their machetes and engaging in seven-figure genocide to lower the Tutsi population by a third. But, when the white population of California falls by half, that’s “natural,” just the way it is, one of those things, could happen to anyone.
Does that not sound like Mantra influenced or is it just me? Notice he brings in the concept of genocide. Amazing that a mainstream NeoCon-ish guy would bring it into the open before most pro-White groups did. Here is the link:
