“Ethno-nationalism—it’s losers. It’s a fringe element. I think the media plays it up too much, and we gotta help crush it, you know, uh, help crush it more.” ...“These guys are a collection of clowns.” - Steve Bannon.

Paleocon Steve Bannon arrested, indicted for facilitating private sector crowd-funding fraud, build the wall campaign…

Donald Trump’s former aide Steven Bannon is arrested and INDICTED over ‘ripping off $25 million crowd-funded border wall to pay for his and co-founders’ lavish lifestyles’ - Daily Mail 20 Aug 2020

Thamster WitNat (Jefferson, Josh and Tyler), 22 Aug 2020 ( Josh Neal 2:10): “Bannon and several other members of the Trump campaign have basically been, just stealing millions of dollars from the public - from god-fearing, Trump-loving Americans, who took it upon themselves to build the wall.”

”...(Jefferson-Lee 2:46): I love this story, how hilarious this is. I know it’s terrible. I’m not happy that Magapedes got ripped-off. I was going to do my pseudo-Cernovich combined with Styxhexinhammer, “I predicted thith, I predicted thith”..because I remember about a year ago both Josh and I railing against this build the wall floating all over conservative media…. probably you shouldn’t donate to this. In fact, your tax dollars should be paying for it. This is obviously a scam. Don’t donate any money. Now what I found particularly hilarious about this, because I don’t know its because I hate myself or I hate Steve Bannon or maybe its some kind of combination of both, I actually went through the items that these goons bought with the money that they stole from Magapedes. I mean, these guys bought a fishing boat! That’s pretty expensive. OK? They bought a legit fishing boat off of the hopes and dreams off of the broken-back, American boomers who are desperate for something to be done.

This story won’t get enough coverage among the people who need to see it. Like conservaboomers and lets be honest, millennials who are like ironically into Americanism and don’t really know who they are; they need to hear this too: The conservative media is Not your friend. We’ve known this for quite some time but this is a literal grift that they were caught doing; lest I forget, during the ‘great Groyper wars’ of 2020, there were a lot of people saying like, you know, “our beef isn’t with Donald Trump Junior, just go after Charlie Kirk when he is speaking at TPUSA events, don’t go after Donald Trump Junior.’ But Trump Junior was seen shilling these funds too. Now maybe he didn’t know, maybe he didn’t have much of an idea of how much a crook Bannon was; I don’t believe that by-the-way, but it’s just me putting that out there.

Regardless, this just goes to show that the mainstream political establishment and the resistance that you’re allowed to have - Steve Bannon, who by the way, I just saw a picture of him before, leaving jail or something, looks like the quintessential boomer - the boomer of all boomers. These people are not your friends. They hate you.

Bannon’s disregard of ethno-nationalism is “leaked.” Majorityrights

To me,” Bannon said, “the economic war with China is everything” ...“Ethno-nationalism—it’s losers. It’s a fringe element. I think the media plays it up too much, and we gotta help crush it, you know, uh, help crush it more.” ...“These guys are a collection of clowns,” he added. See Majorityrights

There is no doubt about it. And just one more thing… imagine not trusting a Goldman-Sachs banker with ties to Hollywood like Steve Bannon? Shocker, shocker! He might actually hate you. He might not actually have your best interests in mind. Imagine that? Just going to put that out there; seems a little obvious when you actually do some thinking. - Jefferson-Lee.

JF Gariepy is more sympathetic to Bannon, arguing to the effect that Bannon is correct to plead not guilty and may be acquitted for the possibility that he may not have been fully aware, or significantly responsible for what his colleagues were up to, whether crowd-funding money was being spent on personal indulgences and what of the crowd funding money was yet to be spent on the wall.

Laura Towler gives a presentation of the invasion of Britain from the perspective of “pathological altruism” - a term which drew hot objection from Tanstaafl.

Tan objects to the term put forward by Kevin MacDonald saying that it apparently comes by way of Jared Taylor’s White advocacy as Taylor wishes to take the blame off of Jewish power and influence per se.

However, Laura’s use of the term isn’t naive. She acknowledges that this condition of pathological altruism has instigating sources - of which she is well aware.

The U.S. Justice Department on Thursday accused Yale University of illegally discriminating against Asian American and white applicants in its undergraduate admissions process in violation of U.S. civil rights law.

The findings are the result of a two-year investigation in response to a complaint by Asian-American groups concerning Yale’s conduct, the department said in a statement.

The department said it was prepared to file a lawsuit against Yale if the school, in New Haven, Connecticut, did not take “remedial measures.”

A Yale spokeswoman said the university “categorically denies” the allegations but has cooperated fully with the investigation. The Justice Department made its findings before allowing Yale to provide requested documents, Yale said.

“Had the Department fully received and fairly weighed this information, it would have concluded that Yale’s practices absolutely comply with decades of Supreme Court precedent,” the spokeswoman said.

The Justice Department said that although race can lawfully be considered in college admissions in limited circumstances, “Yale’s use of race is anything but limited.” The elite school “uses race at multiple steps of its admissions process resulting in a multiplied effect of race on an applicant’s likelihood of admission,” the Justice Department said.

The Justice Department has previously filed legal briefs in support of a lawsuit, brought by affirmative action opponents, accusing Harvard University of discriminating against Asian Americans.

A federal judge in Boston ruled in favor of Harvard last year, saying the school’s affirmative action program advanced a legitimate interest in having a diverse student body. An appeal of that ruling is pending. The case could eventually reach the Supreme Court.

Affirmative action programs in higher education were meant to address racial discrimination. The Supreme Court has ruled universities may use affirmative action with the aim of helping minority applicants get into college.

U.S. conservatives have said that in helping Black and Latino applicants, affirmative action can hurt white people and Asian Americans.

Women in Germany feel largely unable to move about large cities without risk of verbal or physical harassment, a new study suggests. Every fourth woman reports experiencing sexual harassment in her city.

Almost no women feel safe when traveling about the large German cities of Hamburg, Berlin, Cologne and Munich, according to a study by the German branch of Plan International, a children’s rights organization.

For the study, dubbed “Safe in the City,” almost 1,000 women aged 16-71 were requested to place markers on an interactive map in city locations that they have experienced as safe or unsafe. Eighty percent of altogether 1,267 marked locations were classified as unsafe, for reasons including verbal harassment when jogging in the park, badly lit streets, stalking or unwanted touching of a sexual nature.

“Our survey shows that girls and women do not really feel safe or able to move freely in their city. On average, each of the respondents marked one unsafe location in her surrounding area,” said Maike Röttger, the director of Plan International in Germany.

“Every fourth woman has experienced sexual harassment and every fifth woman has been followed, insulted or threatened,” Röttger said, adding that the study findings were concerning.

Nighttime fears

The most frequent reasons given for feeling threatened were encounters with people under the influence of alcohol or other drugs, badly lit paths and parks and lonely areas where no help would be available in the case of an emergency.

Röttger called for action, saying that every girl and woman had a right to move about in her city freely and without fear. She said they should be included in planning and structuring their urban surroundings to make them safer.

But Röttger also called for a change in thinking about gender roles, saying many boys and men still thought it was all right to harass women. “Underlying stereotypes and discrimination are the reason why girls and women cannot feel safe,” she said.

According to the study, women felt most in danger after dark, with 806 of the 1,014 negative markers indicating evenings or nights and only 208 applying to the daytime.

A 2018 study carried out by Plan International in New Delhi, Sydney, Lima and Madrid made similar findings, with most girls and women saying they feel unsafe in those cities.
