Perilous Times Ahead? Read American Renaissance to be Better Prepared

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 9 Comments

Gasp!  I will for sure be blasted for daring to even mention American Renaissance the brainchild of the man some call the devil himself—Jared Taylor.

Heck, I’m already a racist hater according to the Southern Poverty Law Center.

But, who cares, and you shouldn’t care if you are labeled a racist, xenophobe or phobe of any sort for trying to understand what is happening in the country and the world and using your understanding to make the best and safest choices for yourself and your family.

At least, so far , we aren’t being arrested for our choices of reading material.

Thanks to reader Paul for sending this especially provocative piece published at American Renaissance yesterday. It does mention a theme I have been touching on here at ‘Frauds and Crooks’ from its inception and one that permeates Refugee Resettlement Watch and that is no matter how hard the Left tries to sell it, diversity is not our strength!

And, secondly, you have seen it here lately—the media, and law enforcement, keep the ethnicity, race or immigration status of a criminal under wraps as best they can so as not to “perpetuate stereotypes!”

From American Renaissance, a commentary by Fred Reed.  Just a few snips to whet your appetites.

And be sure to read VDARE too!

(Emphasis below is mine)

Blackness Fatigue: Enough Is Too Much

Reed: “Government and the media hide what is going on. In crime stories they increasingly do not publish the race or photo of perpetrators. This, they say, would perpetuate stereotypes, as indeed it would. Stereotypes are the aggregate observations of many people over time and are almost always accurate. “

 

Methinks the US may very well be heading toward a social explosion. The phrase “race war “is overwrought if it implies organized units and chains of command. However, in a country awash in firearms, a bloody, disorganized, continent-wide eruption is possible. To think “it can’t happen here” is complacently inattentive. We have already seen it in temporal and geographic piecemeal in the Fergusons and Portlands and Baltimores, in the armed anarchy of the cities. Arguably a broader uprising has failed to happen only because of intense pressure from government and media, and because whites have not acquired a sense of racial identity. If they do, or when they do, Katie bar the door.

Both racial war, and its close cousin, ethnic war, result from contact between groups of different kinds — that is, diversity, which causes most of the world’s bloodshed. Americans seldom notice this. One reasons is that they are constantly told that diversity is a blissful state. But it isn’t. Consider: Catholics and Protestants in Ireland, Sunnis and Shia in many places, Jews and Moslems in Palestine, Hutus and Tutsis in Burundi, Hindus and Moslems in India and nearby, Tamils and Sinhalese in Sri Lanka, Chinese and Indonesians in Indonesia, French and Africans in Paris, and so on. The assertion that “diversity is our strength” seems an attempt to avoid realizing that it isn’t.

[….]

The appeasement of blacks, fear that they might riot, runs through society.

Increasingly, jurisdictions simply give up on enforcing the law. Cities like Chicago and New York have abolished cash bail to that criminals immediately go free, and immediately often offend again. Baltimore and Chicago no longer prosecute minor offenses such as prostitution and urinating in public. San Francisco has made shoplifting of goods worth less than $950 a misdemeanor, the shoplifters not being Asians, with the result that to this date seventeen Walgreens have closed (video). Cities stop prosecuting the jumping of subway turnstiles as this is done only by blacks and Hispanics. The latter won’t riot. The former will, and governments know it. When blacks very often racially attack whites, the media suppress the story. There are many, many of these attacks, covered briefly in local media but ignored by the majors, caught on video that circulates widely online.

[….]

What the country is doing hasn’t worked, isn’t working, and shows no sign of working. Things get worse by the month. With Biden, Harris, Pelosi, and so on apparently doing everything they can to infuriate the other half of the country — gun control, open borders, erasing the South, anti-white indoctrination in the schools, promotion of sexual curiosities, on and on, anger will grow. As the man associated with Finland Station asked, “What is to be done?”

Unfortunately nothing can be done. Anything that might work is politically impossible, and anything that is politically possible won’t work. Cosmetics, moral preening, lowering of standards, party politics — none of these will fix the country. In calmer times, saner heads might prevail. Partial alleviation might be achieved by allowing, or encouraging, voluntary segregation, taking white police out of black neighborhoods, letting black neighborhoods decide what laws to enforce within their own boundaries, letting the races decide for themselves what to teach their children, and to the extent possible allowing racial autonomy. Instead, the elites will double down on what isn’t working and nothing will get better, except the monthly sales at gun shops.

There is much, much more.  Read it all and follow links to further information.

On most days, I’m not as bleak as Reed on the prospects for our survival.

But, don’t live in la-la land!

I’m not saying you must agree with every word Reed has written because I am sure that running through your minds right now are the names of all the wonderful blacks you know, or the black leaders we have come to respect, but don’t put your heads in the sand about the potential for serious conflicts ahead and be prepared to protect yourself.

One Powerful Message Sent! Masking is Corporate Fascism

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 2 Comments

Not everyone is as brave as my friend Fred, so the next best thing is to send his post and his message out as far and wide as you can!

Fellow blogger Fred Elbel was kind enough to give me permission to repost the story of his recent excellent adventure with United Airlines.

From Colorado Alliance for Immigration Reform:

Masking corporate fascism

Yesterday after visiting family, I flew back via United frequent flyer miles. As I entered the airport, I dutifully donned my two-layer micro fiber cloth mask with an embedded internal pouch for an additional HEPA filter. Probably the best mask aside from an N95. I had a nice chat with the attendant at the check-in desk who tried to convince me that I was not really as ugly as my Real ID driver’s license photo.

Fortunately, I was not arrested for failing to don my mask while masticating an expensive but unidentifiable sandwich. I then made my way through the serpentine TSA line and had a brief but polite discussion with the TSA agent who asked me to remove my mask in order to verify that I matched my ugly license photo.

When boarding the plane, I scanned my boarding pass and an alarm immediately went off while a red alert flashed on the gate agent’s screen. It was a sentence of about 10 words, beginning with “Do not board with…”. I couldn’t read the rest. I thought oh, great, I’m being cancelled for my political beliefs just like Nick Fuentes.

America First Patriot Nick Fuentes Put On No-Fly List

Fortunately, the gate agent gave me a huge smile and waved me on. The flight was exceptionally smooth and fast; we must have caught the jet stream running in our favor. I settled into a sound sleep slouched insecurely against the window only to be awakened by two stern flight attendants urgently rapping my arm. I thought, what – was my snoring disturbing the other passengers?

Pulling out an earplug, I heard one of them mumble something about masks while urgently thrusting a handful of bright blue masks in my direction. Puzzled, I could only utter a surprised “what?” Mumbling again, she pointed to her nose – that is, to an unsightly protrusion that vaguely resembled one beneath her all-encompassing face diaper. In ape-like mimicry, I touched my nose, the lower 3/4″ of which was proudly and tightly covered by my very own diaper.

I pulled my mask up a bit and made an obvious effort to re-seal it against my nose. This seemed to satisfy her. Nevertheless she wrote down my name and gave me an official-looking notice regarding mask rules.

Was it something I said? No – upon reflection, all my interactions were polite and friendly. Perhaps it was something my mask said. Yeah, that must have been it:

“This Is What Tyranny Looks Like”

Ironically, United exhibited the epitome of corporate tyranny – that is, Fascism. Today in America, the Deep State and the Democrat Party are delegating enforcement of tyrannical censorship and coercive societal control to corporate interests. The degree of control being exercised is too aggressive for the State to attempt directly, at least for now

Both Mussolini and Hitler merged state and business leadership into a form of corporatism referred to as Fascism. We see it today with Big Tech censorship, corporate cancel culture, and corporate-infused Critical Race Theory (CRT). Corporate interests benefit hugely from this power arrangement, and the resultant monopolistic control.

As a result, we have the insane requirement that people in airports and on planes wear ineffective face masks which the CDC says are not necessary. Americans, once a free people, must now kotow to corporate directives.

I bet the next time I fly somewhere on holiday, the same thing will happen and I’ll be banned from flying for the rest of my life. All for visibly displaying a token of resistance to our Fascist masters.

Visit Fred’s blog and see the long list of related articles he has catalogued at the end of this one.

Again, encourage bravery!  Send either my post or Fred’s far and wide.

Fight back!

You Can’t Make this Up! Somalia Praised by UN for Welcoming Refugees

Somali-born Ayaan Hirsi Ali Says America is the Best Place in the World to be Black and be a Woman

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 2 Comments

That is what the highly respected author and activist told Tucker Carlson recently at Fox Nation.

Not surprisingly, she is imploring Americans to organize against critical race theory.

Hirsi Ali also calls out the “corrupt” Southern Poverty Law Center that has targeted her on its infamous Hate list.

(Just for the record, I am also a target of the SPLC as they have labeled Refugee Resettlement Watch, my other blog, as a hate group.  Never mind that RRW is not a group.  Details like that don’t matter when they are using fear to raise money!)

Here is the news from Fox:

America ‘best place in world’ to be female, Black, gay, trans: Ayaan Hirsi Ali

Somali-Dutch scholar and activist Ayaan Hirsi Ali strongly criticized the increasing presence of critical race theory and racial politics in the United States, commenting that as a Black woman, the United States is the best nation in the world for minority rights on the part of both race and gender.

Too funny! Last summer Hirsi Ali (left) challenged MN Rep. Ilhan Omar by asking her, “Why Flee Mogadishu and then … turn Minnesota and US into Mogadishu?”  Good question!

 

Ali, who was the victim of the regional custom of genital mutilation and later became a women rights activist speaking out against such customs; after her father shepherded her family out of Somalia, said on Fox Nation’s “Tucker Carlson Today” that those who preach division and theories of inequality do not recognize America’s unique standing as a beacon for the oppressed — rather than a feature of oppression.

“That’s what’s so great about America is that a lot of these things have actually been achieved; equality between men and women, it’s the best place in the world to be female, it’s the best place in the world to be Black, it’s the best place in the world to be gay, trans, whatever you want to be,” she told host Tucker Carlson.

I read Hirsi Ali’s ‘Infidel’ when it came out in 2007 and it had a great influence on my thinking at a time when Muslim refugees, like Ilhan Omar, were being spread throughout America.

“That is America. What do we do with all those achievements if you still want to keep an organization going and still want to get money from donors.”

Ali said that institutions like to “invent” new problems that don’t otherwise exist, or at least not to the drastic extent they are advertised to be.

“If you still want to keep the organization going and still want to get money from donors, you start to invent new stories and new problems. And you come up with things like Islamophobia,” said Ali, who was born Muslim but later became an atheist.

Southern Poverty Law Center scammers….

She added that one example is the left-wing Southern Poverty Law Center, which claims to identify hate groups and hateful individuals – which had put her and former radical Islamist Maajid Nawaz – who went on to found an organization called Quilliam dedicated to counter-extremism and empowerment of moderate theism – on a suspicious “list.”

[….]

“The SPLC … put us on a list which looked a bit like a hit list, I have to say. Because if you are on that list, you make it very easy for those people who may not constantly be making their own lists to go after you,” she said.

“So in many ways, they’re sinister, they’re wrong, they’re corrupt, and the corruption is trying to take people’s money, vulnerable people’s money to pretend that they’re fighting for something that they actually are not fighting for.”

Ali told Carlson that it is important for people to organize instead to counter things like critical race theory with critical thinking.

[….]

“When Black people in America were subjected to slavery and all sorts of humiliation, they were able to wave those documents [our founding documents—ed] to fight for their dignity, their equality, their freedom — That’s a unique thing — that’s what I try to tell Americans: You don’t have that in Somalia, Saudi Arabia, Ethiopia or even any of those European countries: It’s unique to America.”

“Trump Won!” Have fun! Keep Saying it, Drive the Dems Crazy

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 3 Comments

The Progressive Leftwingers are masters at keeping the political pot boiling. You can do it too!

Make their heads explode!

Surely you saw the stunt a couple of Trump supporters pulled at Yankee Stadium on Thursday.  It was a peaceful protest, no one was hurt, but the reaction by the media was swift and angry, and fun to watch.

Reportedly fans in the stands booed the message, but hundreds of thousands of Trumpsters cheered at home.

If you missed it, here is the NY Post quoting a reporter who called it a “conspiracy theory banner.”

Men booted from Yankee Stadium after displaying ‘Trump Won’ banner

 

And, what about those audits?

Have you been following especially Arizona right now?  If you were confident in your assertions that no massive fraud occurred why would you fight so hard to stop that audit and all of the others bubbling up?

You would think that Biden/Harris would be eager to prove they legitimately won and be demanding audits!

You gotta love Sidney Powell who spoke at a Dallas event and answered a question we have all had in our minds.  What happens if massive fraud is revealed in several key states? Will the election be overturned?

Gateway Pundit reported her answer:

Sidney Powell: We’re definitely in uncharted territory. There are cases where elections have been overturned. But there’s never been one at the presidential level where everybody will jump to point out. That doesn’t mean it can’t be done, though. There’s always the first case. And as far as I know, this is the first case of abject fraud and obtaining a coup of the United States of America. So, it’s going to have to be dealt with. It should be that he can simply be reinstated, that a new inauguration day is set. (cheers) And Biden is told to move out of the White House. And President Trump should be moved back in.

She is right.  This could be accomplished.

Otherwise we keep stirring the political pot and wait until 2024.

There is no way Biden will make it that long.  Kamala is too wildly UNPOPULAR and dimwitted to win on her own. Did you see her tone-deaf tweet for the weekend set aside to remember our fallen heroes!

Criticism was swift, brutal and justified.

She may have O beat in the narcissist sweeps.

 

But, the question is, how much damage will they do before they get the heave-ho?  A lot!

For instance, see my posts at RRW about the Unaccompanied Alien Children (aka New Democrats) who are arriving by the tens of thousands—changing America every day that those two remain in charge.

 

Biden has a Problem: As Violent Crime Rises, BLM Anti-Police Message Tanking

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 3 Comments

Watch for the Biden Administration to begin weaving and dodging on issues involving defunding the police and “reimagining” policing as Americans now feel safer about the Chinese Virus, but are feeling increasingly less safe from violence especially in large Democrat run cities.

The George Floyd rioting has finally sunk into the American psyche and many are realizing that they need the police after all.

 

The Republicans just got some news that they can use!

Tie every Dem running in 2022 to the anti-police message of the faltering Black Lives Matter movement.

From Yahoo News:

You can bet the real numbers are even worse for BLM and others pushing their racist message because those polled by Yahoo News likely already leaned to the Left.

Poll: More Americans now say violent crime is a ‘very big problem’ than say the same about COVID-19

In stark contrast to last summer, more Americans now say violent crime is a “very big problem” in the U.S. than say the same about COVID-19, according to a new Yahoo News/YouGov poll — a shift that suggests policing and public safety could come to dominate U.S. politics as the pandemic subsides, potentially putting the Biden administration and Democratic leaders on the defensive.

The survey of 1,588 U.S. adults, which was conducted from May 24 to May 26, found that just 32 percent of them now describe COVID-19 as a very big problem, down from 61 percent last July.

[….]

In a certain sense, this isn’t surprising. While mass vaccination has driven COVID-19 cases, deaths and hospitalizations to their lowest levels in many months, violent crime has been rising (even though it’s still occurring at a far lower rate than it was for much of the 1990s and before).

[….]

Nearly two-thirds of Americans (65 percent) now believe violent crime is increasing, including 76 percent of Republicans, 68 percent of independents and 63 percent of Democrats, according to the Yahoo News/YouGov poll. It’s the rare issue that elicits bipartisan agreement.

The scandal swirling around BLM co-founder Patrisse Cullors sure doesn’t help the image of the racial justice movement. https://nypost.com/2021/05/27/black-lives-matter-co-founder-patrisse-cullors-resigns-amid-controversy/

What is striking, however, is that while anxiety about violent crime has held steady across the political spectrum since last summer, concerns about race relations and sympathy with racial justice reformers have fallen sharply in the wake of the protests that followed the murder of George Floyd one year ago.

Overall, the share of Americans who see race as a “very big problem” in the U.S. is now 13 percentage points lower than it was last July.

As a result, the political scales seem to be tilting away from racial justice reform…

[….]

Last June, for instance, 60 percent of Americans told Yahoo News and YouGov that there was a problem with systemic racism in policing; 63 percent said there was a problem with systemic racism in America. Today, both numbers are significantly lower: 51 percent and 55 percent, respectively. And while 57 percent of Americans had a favorable view of Black Lives Matter last June (compared with 33 percent unfavorable), today more Americans view BLM unfavorably (45 percent) than favorably (43 percent) — a net shift of 26 points against the movement.

In fact, when Americans who believe violent crime is increasing are asked why, far more now blame “the racial justice movement” itself (57 percent) than blame joblessness (44 percent), systemic racism (40 percent) or the pandemic (35 percent).

Then this made me laugh….”Experts debate…”   There is no debate. Anyone with half a brain could see that the Progressives’ rhetoric was encouraging violence.

Yahoo News continues:

Experts debate whether progressive reforms and critical rhetoric have played any role in encouraging violence; they tend to cite the pandemic and record gun sales  [Duh! up because people are trying to protect themselves—ed] as likelier factors.

Either way, the issue could vex Democrats going forward.

Asked who has done a better job handling crime, more Americans (34 percent vs. 32 percent) and independents (39 percent vs. 23 percent) say Trump than Biden.

More here.

Quick!  Find every Democrat (or weeny Republican) you can find who snuggled up to BLM (or Antifa) in the last year and capture their laudatory words and images before they are scrubbed.
