(About 29 minutes in) Reparations (SF & nationwide) & Civil War: 650K blood spilled means nothing to the Affirmative action Americans because they are simply fueled by murders envy and resentment. The blood libel isn’t even enough. Let’s check facts: 1) Criminality has a personal, as well as a societal cost, but let’s look at the economic costs: “The estimated annual cost of crime is $4.71-$5-76 trillion including transfers from victims to criminals and $2.86-$3.92 trillion net of transfers.” (“The aggregate cost of crime in the United States.” journal of economics. volume 64. No. 4) Safe to say that net approximately 3.5 trillion is predominantly funded by White people. 2A) Criminality: Looking at 2021 FBI online criminal database, can you guess who is responsible for approximately 44% of all violent crime in the year in question? Hint: their population percentage is less than 13%. 2B) when it comes to violent crime, is it predominantly intraracial or interracial? For the demographic that commit to plurality of violent crime, the offenses are majority interracial. This is backed up by over 50 years of crime data and holds fairly consistent. •”Three notable findings emerge from our inquiry: (1) racial segregation substantially increases the risk of homicide victimization for blacks while (2) simultaneously decreasing the risk of white homicide victimization. The result of these heterogeneous effects is that (3) segregation plays a central role in driving black-white differences in homicide mortality. These findings suggest the declines in racial segregation since 1970 have substantially attenuated the black-white homicide gap.” (“Segregation and Violence Reconsidered: Do Whites Benefit from Residential Segregation?”. American sociological review. 2019.) 3) this really could be number one, but I wanted to leave the best for last: the great society. The point is best summed up in the book by Seymour Itzkoff, The Decline of Intelligence in America: “In the United States, we have invested our inheritance of wealth and philanthropy in an attempt to dissolve the barriers, to extend a helping hand. The universally acknowledged failure of all these programs, after almost forty years and the expenditure of over *five trillion dollars*, has not dissuaded ideological liberals.? We see the old knee-jerk responses in the present Democratic administration. Ever a familiar refrain: more summer programs for "needy youth," make-work jobs for the urban poor, a few $89,000-per-year jobs for a year, temporary "infrastructure* jobs to repair our city streets. All these in the face of decisive theoretical and experimental evidence that no amount of tax monies is going to change the situation.” (*Emphasis mine*) And the cultural impact, well, we’re still living in it: “ These are a few of the statistics presented, comparing our welfare today with 1963: Violent crime has increased over 500 percent. • Illegitimate births have increased 400 percent. Divorces have increased 400 percent. Children living in single-parent homes have increased 300 percent. Child abuse has increased 340 percent since 1976. Teenage suicide has increased 200 percent. S.A.T. scores have dropped almost 80 points, despite huge increases in support for education. Focus on the Family, Newsletter, May, 1993 What is culture? It is the ways of thinking, living, and behaving that define a people and underlie its achievements. It is a nation's collective mind, its sense of right and wrong, the way it perceives reality, and its definition of self. Culture is the morals and habits a mother strives to instill in her children.” (Dr. William J. Bennett, U.S. Secretary of Education, Report 1993)

I am surprised at how shamelessly these hacks profess their desire to see Trump re-elected. Just bizarre. I guess they are “ok” with all of Trump’s attacks on our Democracy (not to mention his 91 felony charges).

Gives by far the most interesting commentary on the right of US politics.
