Racial Communism, by David Cole.
Heather Heyer’s death gave the media everything it needed to create a new martyr for peace and tolerance (even though she was fighting alongside a bunch of goons who are unpeaceable and intolerant). …
Now, to be very clear, there were plenty of people at the rally who did not seek confrontation, and who just wanted to make their voices heard regarding the removal of Confederate monuments. I’m not the first person to point that out, but it’s only fair that I do.
But a whole bunch of other Unite the Right attendees were fully expecting a brawl and looking forward to it. All year, people in alt-right and white nationalist circles have been obsessed with countering Antifa violence with rightist violence. …
Enough people on the alt-right/white nationalist side were so pumped up for a brawl (as were those on the Antifa side) that bloodshed was inevitable. And anyone should have been able to foresee that if the blood ended up being on the hands of someone on the right, the consequences would be dire. …
Don’t get me wrong; I’m all in favor of standing up to Antifa thuggery, and there’s a part of me that cheers a little every time I see some leftist prick get his or her nose punched in …. But just don’t deny that the brawling was something a lot of you were looking forward to, either as participants, spectators, or online observers. …
Seriously — the white dindus of Charlottesville might as well join BLM; they have the responsibility-deflection thing down pat. And the “hair” thing, too. When I saw the mug shot of cat-fancying, mom’s-apartment-dwelling Fields, I was struck by my immediate revulsion at his adorable little “fashy” haircut. Oh, how proud he must have been when his stylist held up the mirror (remember — real white nationalists visit stylists, not barbers). I’ve always been suspicious of people who feel like they have to wear a “life uniform,” people who insist on trumpeting their identity through clothing or haircuts. That’s what lesbians and “black power” wackos do. “Life uniforms” are for people so empty on the inside, so devoid of individuality, that they have to paint on a crowd-approved identity because they have none of their own.
This is the fashy right path. This is the Richard Spencer path — to bring whites down to the level of black SJWs with their “ethnic pride” clothing and hairstyles. If the purpose of communism was to make everyone equally poor by pulling the wealthy and capable down to the level of the lazy and indigent, Spencer’s brand of “racial communism” is all about bringing whites down to the level of the most pathetic, identity-obsessed SJWs. And I get that there are not that many whites on the right who are following Spencer’s lead, but these rallies make it seem as though we’re all minions of David Duke. I can’t say it strongly enough — events like Unite the Right are nothing but a whole lotta bad road.
Keep holding rallies like this, keep ringing the dinner bell for costume-wearing fashy-haircut losers, and I’m sure we’ll see how much worse the crimes, and the repercussions, can get.
And lest I be misunderstood, I want to stress that I have no concern for what happens to the nuts on the racist, fashy right. But the blowback from their escapades has the power to affect a lot of other people and damage a lot of legitimate causes. By all means, let the loons demonstrate. The problem in Charlottesville was that the event gained publicity and credibility because too many non-fashy fence-dwelling rightists showed up to take part or at least dip their feet in as “observers.” …
The anti-SJW right needs to be discerning. Some of us have been unjustly held hostage by the left’s “Nazi” slur for so long that we seem to have developed Stockholm syndrome. Nazis, Klansmen, and other race-hating radicals are not “misunderstood.” They’re not “victims of MSM lies.” They’re poison, and justifiably so, because they represent very bad things. …
With all the “naughty fun” some folks on the right have been having recently, getting into street brawls with commies and rubbing elbows with swastika-clad “bad boys,” I’d like to remind everyone that the right is currently getting its ass kicked on the whole Confederate-statue thing. The SJWs are winning that one hands down; every day, more statues bite the dust. This is the kind of fight that matters (as opposed to based Spencerians and woke Antifas beating each other with sticks like chimps in the wild), and as of this moment it’s a severe thrashing with the right on the losing end.
Read it all.
