Friends, enemies … enemies! Please, there has been far too much civility lately and it is bad for polemics. Remember who you are and where you are, please!accelafine wrote: ↑Tue Apr 14, 2026 8:41 pm What could be more racist than telling particular groups of people that they are inherently inferior by birth and need special help in order to achieve anything?
We have another knotty topic to divulge here. Remember, this is a thread dealing on The Culture Wars and — how shall I put it? — the romanticism of the deranged “woke” vs the realism of the grounded realistic. I will try to explain why I put it like this.
We live in a world constructed by a dominating race of men. I refer, naturally, to the Age of Discovery and the Vasco da Gama era:
Unfortunately for the dreamy idealists and their tendency to conceive of and establish as “absolutely true” various falsehoods, the Vasco Da Gama era was determined by and dominated by northern European men generally always with strains of “Nordic” blood. These were (are I suppose) a conquering peoples. A war-making peoples but also creative and constructive in the ‘worlds’ they built. So there you have it: the impetus of the White Race. Within a certain strain of “racialist theory” (Madison Grant, Lothrop Stoddard for example) Europe is comprised of three ‘strains’: Mediterranean, Alpine and Nordic. (This is laid out in Grant’s The Passing of the Great Race (1916) and this analysis of both history and physiology was a dominant current if “accepted thought” at the time.)Da Gama's first voyage (1497–1499) was the first to link Europe and Asia using an ocean route that rounded the southern tip of Africa, although he was not the first Portuguese mariner to round the Cape. This route allowed the Portuguese to avoid sailing across the highly disputed Mediterranean Sea and traversing the dangerous Arabian Peninsula. A milestone in Portuguese maritime exploration, this voyage marked the beginning of a sea-based phase of international trade and an age of global imperialism. The Portuguese later established a long-lasting colonial empire along the route from Africa to Asia. The outward and return voyages constituted the longest known ocean voyages ever completed.
This was, naturally, a time when America defined itself as a “White” country and Europe-derived. You must understand how (and why) this “structure of identity” functioned within the culture. You must also understand why and how this “identity” was systematically undermined in the years following the end of WWll.
Let me now make a clarifying but poignant statement sure to cause Old Flash to suffer conniptions: Each “race” on the planet is distinct from every other. Whew! I said it! And the Dome of Heaven has not collapsed on me! I shall proceed …
I might refer to Tocqueville’s exposition on The Three Races of North America as a point of departure: White, Red and Black.
What is my point here? Every race of men, and for complex reasons, develops itself along lines peculiar to itself. A Pygmy is non-comparable to a Nordic Viking. I guess you could interpret this realism as an “evil intrusion of a false physiognomy” or a “false anthropology”, or too (from a realist’s perspective) as a “tragedy of terrestrial life” or what-have-you.
But I simply say that to understand our present, you have to back-track through intellectual and social currents that involve “definition and understanding” and to see, with real clarity, the issue, the fact, of “transvaluation of values”.
Am I being clear enough? Who is that man who “tells others” what they in fact are? Who sees clearly enough, without interposed perceptual lenses determined by ideology, who they are or who they are not? In this sense “the scientist” does this, no? If I say that “a Pygmy” is not the same as a “Nordic Warrior” am I guilty of an inaccurate imposition of anthropological definition?
Anyway, my point is not really so much about “racial distinction” but more about the control of thought along Bowden’s lines: that we are taught not to see what we see. Not to ‘know what we know’ or ‘understand what we understand’.
The World of Woke is a world of fabricated, enforced notions that are enforced by politically correct ideologies.
Flash? What say you? you skinny, indoctrinated, perverted cockroach of self-defeated post-Europeanism?
