Refute the following, while maintaining conversational tone and diction and a minimum of verbiage (preferably several sentences length).

(related in a dinner table discussion of miscegenation):

The Anglo-Saxon people are actually a mongrel nation anyway. All those Jutes, Angles, Normans and Celts, we’re all such mixed up mongrels.

Refutations will be evaluated for conciseness and overall “snappiness”, i.e. the ease of wielding them in everyday convos with average people.

Maybe, after all entries are submitted, we’ll take a vote as to whose was best.

I have been assured by a very knowing American of my acquaintance in London, that a young healthy child well nursed is at a year old a most delicious, nourishing, and wholesome food, whether stewed, roasted, baked, or boiled, and I make no doubt that it will equally serve in a fricassee, or a ragout.

Jonathan Swift: A Modest Proposal for Preventing the Children of Ireland from being a Burden to their Parents or Country, 1729.

Some proposals for solving particular problems of the day may have all the merits of logic on their side, assuming one acquiesces to facile assumptions and glib premises, but their conclusions are so outrageous that the proposal must be treated as satire.  Or God help us.

In our current circumstance of economic crisis – housing bubble burst, busted banks, bankrupt states and municipalities, exploding government liabilities, depression waiting in the wings (or hyperinflation or hyperinflationary-depression) – and those are only the manageable problems, to say nothing of the trashing of the West’s 500 year hegemony and the transfer of wealth and power to Asia, and China in particular – various proposals are being mooted that formerly would have been whispered only by conspiracy theorists or dismissed by sober minded people, or treated as satire.

To wit, the ones I’m familiar with, that the (US) government will force all holders of 401k and IRA plans (private, ‘self-directed’ pension plans for non-US readers) to accept zero-coupon government bonds in exchange for the assets in their accounts; these plans representing perhaps the single largest untapped source of wealth for the US government.

The other modest proposal, and the subject here, is the idea that the US should solve the problems of housing (primarily the vast excess supply of housing relative to current demand – the supply ‘overhang’ ) by giving any foreign person a US green card – i.e. an immigration visa – in exchange for their purchase of a housing unit.

One house, one immigrant – and his extended family.  Very neat.

Rahm Emanuel, who is now Obama’s Chief of Staff:

...and we’ve gotta make this the Number One Issue as a test vote and then take it into the election—that is:  If you are on the No Fly List because you are known as MAYBE A POSSIBLE TERRORIST, YOU CANNOT BUY A HANDGUN IN AMERICA.

So the de facto US government’s #2 man has stated it is the “number one priority” that your right to keep and bear arms shall be infringed—without you even being convicted of a crime—in direct contravention to the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution.

When Deja News (plausibly a government spook shop run by Bobby Inman‘s boys spun off of the MCC) went belly up, the only web-searchable archive of Usenet newsgroups disappeared.  That archive was revived when Google became the dominant search engine.  So now, we can go back and see who was saying what about what regarding racial politics and when they were saying it, right?

Wrong:

This isn’t even a matter of free speech anymore.  Its a matter of erasing evidence.  Pretty much everyone knows there were agents provocateur running around Usenet conducting psyops, so it is pretty obviously “unproductive” to leave that information open for later analysis.

PS:  This gets to be almost comical:  According to Google’s version of Usenet history, I wrote only 2 Usenet posts between 1990 and 1997, one of which cannot be retrieved because it was posted to alt.politics.nationalism.white.  We need to acquire the Russian sense of humor quickly.

Tomislav Sunic’s first book, Against Democracy and Equality: The European New Right, has just been released in a Croatian language edition.  It carries a lengthy preface by Alain de Benoist, which sets out the background and principle positions of the ENR.  I reproduce it in English here, as translated by Tom.

The New Right: 40 Years After ...
by Alain de Benoist

In 1990, as a current of thought under the name “European New Right” (ENR) had began to celebrate its twenty-first birthday, a Croatian friend of mine, Tomislav Sunic, published in English the first edition of his book on the New Right. This was originally the text of his doctoral dissertation, defended two years earlier at the University of California in Santa Barbara, (1). Having acquired a very good knowledge of French during his studies at the University of Zagreb, Sunic was keen to probe into the ENR very early on. Moreover, he also had the opportunity to read ENR works in the original French language. Unlike many other commentators who spoke of the ENR on the basis of hearsay and formed judgments from second hand sources, he demonstrated the ability to go right to the core of the issue. He demonstrated a sympathy for the ENR which plainly distinguished him from those commentators.

It was also plain that his book’s interest derives from something more than sympathy. Its importance is due to its pioneer character. Certainly, in the late 1980s several books (but also a number of scholarly works) had already been published on the ENR. But they were almost all published in French. Tomislav Sunic’s book was one of the first to appear abroad (a privilege he shared with some Italian authors). Presenting the history and main ideas of the ENR to a public who had never heard of it before was not an easy task. Thanks to his informed mind, his sense of synthesis, but also his knowledge of the readers he addressed, there is no doubt that Sunic succeeded immediately in his endeavor.

In hindsight, what I find most remarkable is that Tomislav Sunic’s book was written in English, especially given that the author resided at that time in a country - the United States - that he knew from the inside-out and which he viewed in a very critical manner (as evidenced by his latest book, Homo Americanus).

Rolling Stone reports that:

That guy — the Patient Zero of the global economic meltdown — was one Joseph Cassano, the head of a tiny, 400-person unit within the company called AIG Financial Products, or AIGFP. Cassano, a pudgy, balding Brooklyn College grad with beady eyes and way too much forehead, cut his teeth in the Eighties working for Mike Milken, the granddaddy of modern Wall Street debt alchemists. Milken, who pioneered the creative use of junk bonds, relied on messianic genius and a whole array of insider schemes to evade detection while wreaking financial disaster. Cassano, by contrast, was just a greedy little turd with a knack for selective accounting who ran his scam right out in the open, thanks to Washington’s deregulation of the Wall Street casino. “It’s all about the regulatory environment,” says a government source involved with the AIG bailout. “These guys look for holes in the system, for ways they can do trades without government interference. Whatever is unregulated, all the action is going to pile into that.”

The ongoing Princeton lecture series, The Strong Free Will Theorem by John H. Conway and Simon Kochen bears on “creationism”.

It presents science with a choice:

Either believe free will is, in a strong sense, universal or deny your own free will.

How will scientists choose?

PS: I hate to break it to sophomoric anti-creationists like Dawkins, but the fact that so-called “creationists” have their cranks that insist on the literal interpretation of Genesis doesn’t mean you can just dismiss the field.  Evolutionary theory has a lot more room for religion than the determinists would have us believe.

Chatting with a friend of mine about the confluence of events in the 1960s (approaching fertility of the baby boomers, birth control, the technosocialist nightmare of NASA, the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, takeover of Anglo Saxon bastions by Jews, rise to cultural dominance of TV, replacement of Christianity with Holocaustianity) I reflected on the seeming common direction.  All these things happened right at the point in time when the most pioneering subpopulation of humanity was ready to send its largest and most educated generation into a lifetime mission to bring life to space—and not only stopped it, but may have risked that life on Earth will extinguish itself.  A mutual friend of ours, who is known for his wild theories, has previously offered up his interpretation of this coincidence—that it is aliens from outer space!  They don’t want terrestrial life messing things up, so they come down here in their UFOs and manipulate our so-called leaders to do these things that are so stupid it boggles the mind.

Come now—why wait until the 1960s to do all this subtle manipulation?  Why not just wipe out the planet?

So I said, “Well, I guess, looking at how incredibly insane our “leaders” have behaved over the prior decades, it might make a little more sense to consider the possibility that the Nazis really did discover antigravity toward the end of WW II but all they could do was build a few space ships—just enough to establish a lunar colony.  You know, hang out on the “dark side of the moon” while occasionally lending a helping hand to the most virulent Jews as revenge against the Allies or something.  Who knows?  Just about anything would make more sense than what has been done to the boomer generation.”

Then my friend sent me a link to this Finnish movie production:

The only problem is, if the Moon Nazis wait until 2018 to return and conquer Earth, their sweet revenge on the Allies may have gotten out of hand and destroyed Earth!
