Hi all,
I hope your Halloween was a good one. The Dodgers are World Series Champs - what a great series. Here’s a video to celebrate the victory.
This morning a friend of mine sent me an X post that I thought I would share with you. As some of you know, I grew up on the liberal side of things but have always rejected identity politics. I have made documentaries like “How Jack Became Black” where I’ve talked to people who embrace identity politics and asked them why. Their language is usually euphemistic, but not this post which features a guy offering an unapologetic defense of what his racial role should be in America:
As my father says, race is nothing but a corruption and a means to power.
This man is white supremacy reinvented. The original white supremacist of the slavery and segregation era used race to corrupt the American principles to maintain power on top. This new iteration seeks to destroy the American principles under the illusion of penance for the earlier version. But this is still white supremacy, inverted.
The question here is why do we continue to give power to these demented, navel-gazing, narcissistic, racist fools? Why have we indulged this behavior for so long and at the expense of blacks and other minorities pursuing their own American dreams?
The only way forward is to destroy this contemporary racism without mercy by unapologetically embracing the full power of the American individual as the way forward.
It never fails to stun me how much deference and power we give to these racialists.
On another note, I wanted to share another post from X. Washington Free Beacon exposed Senator Chuck Schumer for trying to sweep antisemitism under the rug by scapegoating Republicans.
Sadly, the behavior that Schumer exhibits is one that I have encountered from many Jews - liberal to left - since the release of the Killing America documentary.
They simply refuse to confront the true forces behind antisemitism, such as DEI, liberated ethnic studies, etc., — their political identity matters more than doing the right thing. They’re even willing to accept the liberation ideology’s erasure of their Jewishness by pushing them into the white box.
(How are they that much different than the above white supremacist in the first post? What is Jewishness that has been “whitenized”? Controversial questions, for sure, but fair game.)
These Jews allow this, in a general sense, because to confront this ideology that drives identity politics and causes like Black Lives Matter would mean admitting they have been on the wrong side all along. So many of them value the cloaking of themselves with civil rights virtue (without doing the real work) to the point that they see it as part of their identity. So, like Schumer, they chose to look the other way and blame the big bad Republicans.
Not only that, I have witnessed these Jews socially and religiously ostracize any Jew that dares to voice the truth. These Jews have made the devil's bargain with tribalism and they are a major reason why antisemitism flourishes.
But this is nothing new. It’s an old story in the history of Jews and one that Israeli Jews have learned far more than American Jews.
On a lighter now, this will be my last post until election day where I’ll be sharing Pastor Brooks’ uplifting message to America. Off to celebrate the Day of the Dead in Oaxaca. We’ll be wearing our Fernando Valenzuela jerseys in his honor.
My best,
Eli
That dude's tweet is just a white supremacist's humble brag.
Thanks again for sharing such great words of wisdon!
