Considering the crime in the inner cities today....


Maybe those “bad” sheriffs in Mississippi were on to something with segregation?

I mean who would want to live in a city(like Chicago) where a dozen people are murdered on an average weekend?

Jackson, Mississippi today is like 70% black with a radical black mayor...and the city has comparable homicide rates to South Africa.

Nobody cares about black on black crime. Cmon man

That’s true. Too bad sometimes Civilized people get caught in the crossfire

reply

Just stay away from shithole liberal run cities and you won't get caught in the crossfire.

reply

Yeah but they keep following us. White flight needs to be transformed into white self determination

reply

By contrast, you sure don’t want to be in a school (elementary, middle or high school) in a shithole red state that thinks anyone and everyone should have an assault rifle.

reply

Statistics show that when people live in a legally heavily armed area there is less crime. History and facts are against your invalid augment.

Look at it this way if there had been BLM "mostly peaceful" protests, rioting, and looting in the suburbs that $h!t would have been shut down mad quick. That's why it only happened in liberal run cities.

reply

It is too bad

reply

Yeah it’s pretty strange. BLM was on the scene a few years back claiming they really cared about black lives so they wanted to defund the police and get Trump out. Biden gets in and the black on black murder rate has only went up and BLM is nowhere to be seen. The democrats are silent on what’s going on - they are still banging on the racism drum . Time goes on and not much gets fixed

The country was built on the slave trade AND on principles of equality incompatible with slavery

This country would have been as white as Northern Europe if it hadn't gone out of its way to bring in all the other races with its policies

I get part of white supremacy, but ultimately it's built on political naivete. Capitalism and white supremacy are incompatible, so the capitol of capitalism will always be an enemy of large-scale white supremacy policies

reply

Yeah you’re about 80% right. You can have Dirigisme and White Supremacy

reply

Yes. America can serve to destabilize international peace, but it will never be the focal point of a white revolution. It'd be a totally unrealistic economic shrinkage

White supremacists basically need to emigrate to countries that aren't corporate puppet states. Or else hope for a YA-novel type of revolution. It's as unrealistic as communism

The modern U.S. is only what it is because of its disgustingly soulless political paradigm. It has regulatory mechanisms only rivaled by biological systems. Race is only as relevant as it needs to be to increase fervor for economic freedom

reply

It has regulatory mechanisms only rivaled by biological systems.

That very well said. But some people aren’t aiming for taking back the whole country. They’re advocating for White Ethnostate.

reply

Everyone went out of their way to bring in all the other races, or did some people do that?

Why is private property, freedom of association etc and white supremacy incompatible? Or is Corporatism and white supremacy incompatible?

reply

You know what I mean. The majority of white land owning males

reply

I have no idea what you mean!

You might not be wrong here. I'm 42 and have been a fan of this movie for decades (have always admired the Willem Dafoe character), and it just recently hit me: those local cops were not necessarily completely in the wrong. Yes, they went to far, but they were kind of prodded into it.
Sometimes, it has to be realized, that no matter how much of a fairytale we want de-segregation to be, it is ultimately impossible. It's just 2 different cultures, and that can't be overlooked. There are good and bad in both cultures, and in the right circumstances, co-existence can happen, but ultimately it's 2 different cultures.
