Snappy Refutations, Exercise 4 I’ve noticed that the Guardianistas are clueing up on the availability of DNA testing, and are endeavouring to use it as a challenge to the argument that my succession of thread phenotypes at CiF are members of a genetically distinct European people. As tactics go, it’s a smear really, the unspoken inference being that somewhere lurking in my ancestral history are a whole stack of Somalis and Afghans. And it’s a variation on the old tactic of claiming that our people don’t exist or can’t be defined, and so there’s nothing to preserve. Of course, it could just be that the folks who use this tactic are mixed-race self-haters. Anyway, it goes like this:-
Another version concentrates on genealogy instead of the DNA test, but the inference is the same. You are invited to snap back. By the way, a couple of days ago I constructed a comment out of material in the second and third threads of this series, and it was bloody good. Too bloody good for the CiF moderators, in fact. It got deleted. But it shows that this exercise is worth doing, and my thanks go to PF who thought of it. Comments:2

I think the popularization of DNA testing amongst Whites to reaffirm identity and for mate selection is of immense utility for White preservation. JWH definitely thinks so. 3
Posted by Captainchaos on Sat, 11 Apr 2009 02:17 | # If it be our destiny to be swamped by the Third World we’ll need methods of ensuring our genetic continuity and establishing group cohesion. Popularization of DNA testing could serve as a useful ritual on both counts. 4

It doesn’t really fit in with the “Snappy Refutations” project but it was amusing. 5

Conversely, if I am in fact 100% English, would you grant the legitimacy of my position?” turnaround “Does that mean that recent immigrants, having 0% English ancestry, should have no say in the comparison “So if an Indian person can be shown to be part Turkish - do they lose all claim to an Indian identity?” argument “Even if I’m only 95% English, do I not have a right to attempt to stay that way?” nya-nya-You’re-Hitler smear “Well, well, well - the racism of the left comes out. It turns out my ability to make arguments apply it to everybody “If the legitimacy of my defense of the rights of the English people to exist depends on a blood sample, “If it turns out that I’m more English than some of the other commentators and journalists - will my opinion count for more than theirs?” [I actually made the same point about 5 times here, kind of boring] We really need Svigor, q, Lurker and The Narrator to get on this, they have a knack for this stuff. 7

Posted by Dasein on Sat, 11 Apr 2009 12:26 | # It’s a bizarre request. They might as well ask for a picture of your genitals to prove that you’re a man. Your argument would be valid regardless of whatever race you really were- the test would only prove that you are insincere and lying about your racial makeup. I don’t think anyone should be sending their DNA sequence to others, especially publishing it on the Internet. The participants in the Personal Genome Project (at least the ones I’ve seen interviewed) seem very naive about the dangers of exposing themselves in this manner. This is a good blog for keeping track of developments in personal genomics: As for the Guardianistas, perhaps the best tack is to take up their admission that there is such a thing as the English ethny. 9

I think exPF is on the right course here. Of course it depends on how you are interacting with the people you are debating/discussing with…the history, the back and forth, the tone and so on…..if they would acknowledge when you were making a point for illustration and such. But I’d be tempted to come back with an answer such as, “Well, it turns out I’m 75% English, 20% Polish and 5% Italian.” It would be interesting to see how they would respond. If they except the results and say, “see, we told you so”, then they will have just admitted that English, Italian and Polish people exist as distinct groups. After all you can’t be a percentage of something that doesn’t distinctly exist (and recognized as such) to begin with. If they reject the results then they will have made null and void their appeal to the DNA testing, thus relenting and retreating in that angle of attack… . 10
Posted by Ernest Wesley on Sat, 11 Apr 2009 19:03 | # Who I am is irrelevant to the idea the British people deserve their homeland. So you’re saying a member of another race might propose this, doesn’t that mean its not racist? 11

That kind of silly ad hominem is an impertinent way to end the discussion by changing the subject. Isn’t there an all-purpose proverb that can be used to reply to all ad-hominems? Maybe you could say that “truth knows no race”. (it will sound awkward if your point is that race exists)
My suggestions (not snappy) : - My poodle has wolves in its ancestry, but wouldn’t last long in a pack of wolves. Race matters even if you are not pure race. - The English may have had some African DNA in very small amount prior to the 20th century, but they are still recognizable from Africans. There is still something to preserve. - There has been some non-white admixture in the past, but today’s immigration is a phenomenon of a much higher magnitude. 12

Go and take an IQ test then publish the result here so we can all see if you are as smart as you think you are. Go and take an AIDs test then publish the result here so we can all see if you like taking tests and making the results public. Go and take a long walk off a short pier so we can all see if a man-sized turd floats or sinks. OK, turns out I’m 100% English. Your turn! I like this testing idea. Let’s test everybody and find out what they are. We don’t need any test to see who hates the English. 14

Yes, but they’re unlikely to mean it so you put them back on the spot. 17

Ho, ho, ho! So race-replacement is “development” now? Well: a.) Bullshit. b.) Go fuck yourself. Btw, race is well-defined scientifically, the “science” of your Boasian idols notwithstanding. 19

If “scientists” won’t accept race, then they aren’t scientists. They’re Jewed. Fuck what “they” say about race, it doesn’t matter. “They”‘re a bunch of tomfools. 20
Posted by Gudmund on Thu, 16 Apr 2009 03:30 | # To race-blind old “Collector”: “A leopard doesn’t change his spots just because you bring him in from the jungle and try to housebreak him and turn him into a pet. He may learn to sheathe his claws in order to beg a few scraps off the dinner table, and you may teach him to be a beast of burden, but it doesn’t pay to forget that he’ll always be what he was born: a wild animal.” That’s the only information you’ll need about other races, fuckface. I don’t need a scientist to tell me that our adversaries are wild-fucking-beasts. 21

Posted by Guessedworker on Fri, 17 Apr 2009 09:18 | # Gudmund, Your commentary is welcome and often interesting, but the epithets here are beneath you. Collector: Identity is not about genes per se, it is about the association of shared genes with shared cultural and historical identity “Identity” is a slippery Marxian slope that leads us straight to self-authorship and the choice of the individual. Of course everyone uses the term, but that doesn’t negate its lack off serviceability to our ends. We would benefit ourselves by developing the idea of a partition of the ways between “knowing thyself” as a European man or woman, rather than simply as an individual, and self-estrangement. The spiritually deracinated prisoner of his or her own time can have his “identity”. But we wish to open the doors of what could be called the eternal European nation, or the European soul - which, of course, can never be chosen. If we concentrate on this we can do that uniquely difficult thing and unify genes and culture and we can extirpate from our minds all that belongs to The Other. 23

As much as I’d like to live up to ex-PF’s expectations, I have to agree with Dasein. It’s friggin’ bizarre, and I can only think of one reply: “Argumentum ad hominem is a logical fallacy.” Obviously, there are many ways of saying the same thing: “So, if I say stealing is wrong, and you prove I’m a thief, that means stealing is not wrong?” 24
Posted by Svigor on Sun, 19 Apr 2009 04:29 | # And obviously, after the response “well if you aren’t English enough, you’ll be kicked out if your own rules are followed,” (assuming I actually proposed such rules, otherwise I’ll be tearing my interlocutor a new ass for putting words in my mouth), the obvious counter-response is, “well, I believe in freedom for ethnic nationalism for everybody, and since everybody includes me last time I checked…” 25
Posted by Guessedworker on Sat, 09 May 2009 10:37 | # By way of a thanks to you guys I thought you might be interested in a demonstration of the efficacy of this pooling of ideas. Yesterday evening on this Guardian thread ... http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2009/may/08/eu-economic-immigration-poland?commentpage=3 a commenter style cmnimo instructed me thus:-
... to which I flew back to this thread, cobbled together a reply as follows:-
... and lo and behold, this morning I find my interlocutor baffled and silenced:-
Thank you very much. Post a comment:

I look forward to the series entitled ‘Thorough refutations’, which I think will actually be more useful in the long run.
