Editor’s note: Jim Goad has joined Counter-Currents as a twice-weekly original contributor. This is his first article.
As someone who is both obsessed with race and filled with hatred, I am often accused of being filled with racial hatred.
For reasons that have nothing to do with trying to absolve myself in the eyes of people naive enough to think that “racism” not only exists but is both evil and ubiquitous, I’ll attempt to explain why such an accusation is imbecilic.
It’s true that I hate black people, but not for being black — it’s because they’re people. I suppose my worldview is religious in the sense that with very few exceptions, I see humanity existing in a fallen state. People are overwhelmingly shallow, dumb, and so dishonest that they need to tell themselves twenty lies before they’re capable of putting on their socks in the morning. Perhaps it’s nothing but wishful thinking, but I at least like to pretend that people have far more potential than they are displaying at the moment.
I’m a race realist in the sense that I acknowledge quantifiable physical and cognitive differences among the races, but nearly six decades of hard knocks have taught me we are all equal only in the sense that we are equally capable of being assholes. I can be convinced otherwise, but I’ve yet to see anyone put together a convincing argument that one can quantify differences in character and temperament among the races.
So I reserve most of my hatred not for blacks, but for the liars who not only lack the honor to cop to their lies but whose lies put people in harm’s way.
“We are all equal” is a lie that obviously appeals to people who feel inferior, but it’s so cleverly manipulative that it had to have issued from a superior mind.
And unless you’ve been living since May with your head up God’s ass, you should be aware that telling black people they are equal — and that any disparities in income and victimization by police are due to Demon Racism rather than the fact that, on average, blacks are dumber and more violent than others — has put countless human lives and this nation’s very existence in harm’s way. We are pushing the lowest common denominator to the point where it threatens to become subterranean, to where “justice” won’t be achieved until we’re all squirming in agony way down deep at the bottom of the Lake of Fire.
When I get accused of being a “white supremacist,” I don’t deny it for any moralistic reasons but because I strain to find any way in which whites currently excel beyond collective masochism — at that fine art, we are the undisputed world champs.
I can, however, name at least three areas in which it would be fair to label me a black supremacist.
I suppose it’s my Celtic blood that gives me a fondness for words in a synergistic sense. I can experience words with all five senses. I like writers who use words like a painter employs color or how a singer can convey heartbreak with only a slight shift in tone or amplitude. And I’ve had a lifelong fondness for blacks’ boundless creativity in naming their children.
My parents reared a Jim and a John and a Christina and an Alton — the first three names are woefully common, and the latter is marginally unusual, but it wasn’t even original in the sense that he was named after my father.
Phil Eiger Newmann, Lakers, 2020.
Meanwhile, like cannonballs, black wombs are shooting out Shitaviouses and Letalvises and Stanklons and Tyrekios — white people simply can’t compete, and I suffer no blows to my ego by acknowledging black supremacy in this area. Every time they pop out another human welfare check, they show unlimited creativity in naming the li’l sapling.
Whereas boxing used to be almost the sole domain of blacks from around 1960 to 2000, the heavyweight championship has been dominated by whites for the last twenty years. Basketball, though, continues to be so absurdly ruled by blacks to where I marvel that anyone can believe 13% of the population accounting for 80% of players can be explained by anything other than innate human inequality.
Crime is another area in which blacks are peerlessly supreme. Sure, you could make a case that government and the finance system are innately criminal, but to my knowledge, no black person has ever been clever enough to create a functional government or financial system. Likewise, I’m unaware of any black person ever devising an intelligence test where blacks so much as achieve parity with other races, much less supremacy over others.
As someone who tracks crime stats as if it was a form of porn addiction, I’ve only ever seen blacks underrepresented in one area of crime — drunk driving. And that may be explained by the fact that many of these hapless Sons of Ham are too dirt-poor to even own a car. And I only saw them underrepresented once — by a slim percentage point, and that was years ago. Last I checked, they even excel in drunk driving. Anyone who isn’t a black supremacist when it comes to crime is either innumerate or a liar.
Many are aware of the “13/50” meme — the idea that 13% of the population commits 50% of the nation’s murders. But when you whittle it down to the fact that nearly all of the perps are young and male, it’s more like “4/50.”
What you hardly ever hear about is “64 to 1.” That’s the number I arrived at by crunching the numbers from FBI stats between 1996 and 2008. In raw numbers, black-on-white rapes outpace the inverse by a factor of around 11 to 1, but when you account for the fact that whites also outnumber blacks by about 5.5 to one, a white woman is 64 times more likely to be raped by a black man than a black woman is by a white man.
Only a nimrod would deny black excellency in the field of rape.
Yet it’s precisely this form of denial — as well as the refusal to admit that there are crucial areas in which blacks lag behind all other groups and continue to lag despite decades of elbow grease, oceans of guilt, and trillions of worthless Federal Reserve notes tossed at the problem in the vain hope that it will all go away — which has the United States careening at warp speed to become Zimbabwe. It’s all happening right before our eyes — or at least before the eyes of those who haven’t plunged knitting needles into their eyeballs because they can’t bear to watch anymore.
Only an irredeemably jealous racist would deny blacks their rightful place as the intercontinental champeens of rape, basketball, and child-naming.
Problem is, a nation cannot live on basketball and rape alone. It’s easy to see and just as easy to admit. But white Americans seem determined to learn this simple lesson the hard way. So as I type this, I’m filled with racial hatred toward other whites.

Wow, I knew it, but boy, he really has a way with words. Great to have Jim on board.
I wonder what Jim thinks of political topics such as the Ethnostate, I listened to the interview between him and Greg. What does he think the proper activism should be now for Whites?
I’m genuinely curious what activism will look like myself, post-election, in the aftermath of the increasingly likely Trump drubbing.
I can tell you what it will NOT involve for yours truly, when the Stupid Party completes its inevitable 2013-style “autopsy” and tries to sell me on the idea that only a form of “woke” George W McRomneyism 2.0 is the only “conservatism” that can prevail! Even if that’s true, I have zero preference for whether I live in a globalist, multiculti sewer with high taxes, or with slightly less high taxes.
So what comes next? Secession, third party? I have no idea.
Is that drubbing a victory like that of the Chicago Bears for SNL’s Superfans? “Final score: Green Bay Packers 14, Chicago Bears…177”.
The polls you follow are ludicrous.
He’s talked about this question. Activism is not his thing.
Goad featured Richard Spencer on his old podcast, Group Hug (episode 19). You can find it on jimgoad (dot) net/podcast. They talk about the ethnostate idea. Goad is generally a loner and doesn’t really like the idea of an ethnostate, but also knows individualism is a losing game in a world of increasingly malicious tribalists.
Ha, I used to work with an inner city population and they had all these weird ass names for kids. Shadynasty, for shady dynasty, a rap reference, was a common one. We saw a pair of twins named Syphilis and Gonorrhea. Shithead was another too common one. (Put a hyphen somewhere in the word.)
All the same, I would like to see more creativity with child naming among whites. For example, a Skywalker Smith or Frodo Jackson. Perhaps a Lincoln Rockwell Jones. We are too hidebound.
Syphilis and Gonorrhea? It’s very funny, but it’s not true, is it?
Yes it really is
In a civilized nation, this type of behavior would be disallowed as a form of child abuse. Of course the deeper question is WHAT IN THE HELL WERE WHITES THINKING IN FORCING OUR PEOPLE TO HAVE TO LIVE WITH THAT PEOPLE?
There is something wrong with whites. Those of us who are sane need to segregate ourselves from these evolutionary defects called “liberals”.
Didn’t the nurse or the county government or someone try to tell her how cruel that is?! The French will routinely intervene if someone tries to name their child something even as stupid as Vanille. It can be done without being authoritarian about it.
Reminds me of my favorite urban myth. A white woman and black woman are sharing a semiprivate hospital room after giving birth. The white tries to make small talk, asking “What’s your baby’s name going to be?” The black says what sounds like “fa-MOLL-y.” The white says “oh, that sounds nice. How did you come up with it?” The black says “the doctor gave it” and points to the chart at the end of the bed where the doc wrote FEMALE in the space for infant’s sex.
lol Reminds me of that painfully common joke about American McGee
Chlamydia is another common one.
I heard that a black mother wanted to name her daughter Latrine. The doctor and nurse talked her out of it.
Back in the late ‘90s, a black female contestant named Ketchup appeared on The New Hollywood Squares. Ketchup.
Surely somewhere out there in America is a young black woman named Levitra. Gotta be.
And she probably has a brother named Cialis.
I worked as a public school teacher for 13 years in 3 different schools. In two of those schools, I met a person who swore to have taught or claimed to know someone who taught a Shithead (pronounced ShiTHEED), a Gonorrhea, a Nosmo King (from the ubiquitous sign), a La-a (pronounced La “dasha” a), or a set of Lemonjello/Orangejello twins. What are the chances?
I’m pretty sure are BS, since 1) to the best of my knowledge no one has ever produced any evidence of these names, 2) they are a bit far-fetched, and 3) they often show up in the same exact form in a variety of places. Why repeat these urban legends when there are so many other great examples of the ability of this demographic to create the dumbest names? From a list of Olympic athletes alone, we can find “Tayshaun, Deron, Rau’shee, Raynell, Deontay, Taraje, Jozy, Kerron, Hyleas, Chaunte, Bershawn, Lashawn, Sanya, Trevell, Sheena, Ogonna, and Dremiel.”
I don’t really want to sign up at entropy, but will download your donation form and send a check – in part to make up for time since my monthly donations ceased, and in part to demonstrate my general appreciation for the site. Further great appreciation to Mr. Goad for his crisp yet descriptive writing, and brutal honesty. As a general misanthrope, his disdain for most people’s utter worthlessness appeals to me. I actually listened to his podcast here, and I don’t do podcasts. As one very tired of pretend civility with the uncivilized, this sort of take no prisoners, push no bullshite stance is deeply appreciated. Hope to see much more of it.
Speaking of cheques you haven’t cashed mine yet although I mailed it a few months ago. Perhaps its in a Covid quarantine area!!!!
If you consider that 10-20% of violent crimes in major cities never get solved the numbers are more like 5-6% do 60%.
What really irks me is that they never mention the races of the people involved — I suppose that is to preserve the color-blind ‘equality’ of all our citizens, in order to avoid ‘racism’. The only hint we can get is when the newsperson interviews ‘the neighbors’, or pans the neighborhood, or when they drag the perp out of the car. All I can say is that when I worked at a police station about 10 years ago, the rap sheet that came up on the screen showed all that info — I wonder if it still does? How can they identify anyone without the most perfect descriptor?
This, my first comment on this site, is to congratulate you, Jim. Great first column. I look forward to many more.
Congratulations to both Counter Currents and Jim Goad for this natural alliance.
The dude can write.
HL Menken’s illegitimate son.
Ain’t no one like him.
‘Cep maybe Heartiste.
Who else can give you terrible news and make you feel exhilarated at the same time?
Kudos to Dr J for bringing him on.
Heartiste could really write. Anybody know if he has a new blog up yet?
He’s on gab.
I’ve never read Mr. Goad’s work before, but I clearly was missing out. This is some really fun stuff.
“I’ve yet to see anyone put together a convincing argument that one can quantify differences in character and temperament among the races”
The easiest proof of this is found in the Russian Fox Domestication Experiment, where foxes were bred according to temperament, raised in identical isolated conditions, and retained those variations in temperament across generations. They bred for friendliness and also hostility, and got foxes that were accordingly friendly or hostile. The interesting thing is how FEW generations it takes to cause drastic changes.
Here’s a short video showing the breeding results (I recommend learning more about it on your own just because it’s neat and cute):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-L58NPPQ5eI
It’s an easy proof that genes affect temperament, and to a significant degree. Now we can’t exactly perform the same test on humans for ethical reasons, but we can record some of it’s effects such as time preference and aggression.
We can show that time preference is HUGELY different by race, which means lower likelihood to think about long term consequences.
https://www.amren.com/news/2016/03/how-time-preferences-differ-evidence-from-53-countries/
There’s the classic example of the MAO-A gene or “warrior gene” being distributed unequally by race. It’s linked to heightened agression and criminality.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monoamine_oxidase_A#Antisocial_behavior
Check it out, apparently our legal system recognizes it as a legitimate reason for sentence reduction:
“In a 2009 criminal trial in the United States, an argument based on a combination of “warrior gene” and history of child abuse was successfully used to avoid a conviction of first-degree murder and the death penalty; however, the convicted murderer was sentenced to 32 years in prison.”
Now I’m just some lousy commenter, so you might turn to one of those nerdy researchers like Ryan Faulk or Sean Last for a more comprehensive explanation.
Jim, you make a good point regarding crime in general, however, with regards to rape I believe that the discrepancy can be explained by the inability of most white males to tolerate a sufficiently high blood alcohol level, if you know what I mean.
Thank God for Jim Goad.
I hope this is ends up being a better fit for you Jim, you and Cole were the main draw of Taki’s Mag for me and likely many others.
Cole’s entertaining, but unfortunately he now lacks the honesty he brought to the long-ago Donahue Show ambush regarding the Holocau$t.
Goad posted only one (I think) story at the Unz Report, for whatever reason.
He’s funnier than all the woke comedians in Hollywood combined. Yeah, that’s faint praise but that’s not how I mean it.
He still maintains that Auschwitz, and others, had no gas chambers and that the 6 million number is a myth. He estimates it’s about half that amount and the evidence he provided for that was pretty convincing to me, a lot of holocaust revisionists share his view on that now as well. I question how many the Germans actually killed versus the Soviets when they seized some of those camps, I’d love to ask him about that if I ever get the chance. He still shares his “blasphemous” views even after having his life upended multiple times so I respect him for that and regardless of his revised stance on the holocaust I always enjoy reading his columns.
Also, Jim’s article on Unz is a republish from a different site, I remember because I thought he would be a regular there but alas it said it was from somewhere else at the end of it. Shame that he never officially wrote for Ron’s site, he’d certainly have an audience there if he ever did. Now that he’s writing here he may get republished there again since Ron posts articles from here quite regularly.
The Holocau$t has always been promoted as the “Final Solution” in which Evil Germans planned the deliberate execution of 6 million Jews.
Are you saying the consensus among “revisionists” is that Evil Germans only succeeded in the planned execution 3 million?
I believe the consensus is actually that the Germans, after having been viciously betrayed by Jews in WWI & the Weimar era, put suspect Jews in work camps where they were treated no worse than typical POW’s elsewhere. Near the end of the war POW’s suffered along with the rest of Germany. Germany certainly didn’t round up Jews & fire-bomb them, Dresden-style.
I began to catch on to the stupidity of the average American when I see reporters doing ‘interviews with average Americans on the street’ — when asked why they were voting for one candidate (Biden), it’s because ‘he has a much nicer personality’ or just seems to be a much better person’, or not voting for Trump, it’s because ‘he has such an unmannerly personality’. Not a word about issues, not a word about how one or the other will ‘improve my life’, or ‘improve the economy’, or ‘handle the foreign policy issues that keep us entangled in idiotic wars and police actions all over the planet’. Nor certainly not about the horrendous ongoing problem with ‘illegal immigration’ (is there any other kind?), which the Left immediately devolves into ‘ the plight of the poor little children in cages at the border’.
When I hear all this — and myriad more such short-sighted one-sentence idiocies — I throw in the towel on White I.Q. superiority, let alone thousands of years of obvious White common sense and inventiveness and leadership.
But don’t give up — the American people are obviously gob-smacked by the sweetness and light in which Socialism is presented to us, and even poured down our throats in supposed ‘institutions of higher learning’ — which people with obviously higher I.Q.s now find themselves attending and paying their parents’ hard-earned money and their outdated hopes of education as being the way to success. Our system is so screwed on so many levels, and we really have to dedicate our lives to sorting out all the mess. We are NOT stupid, but we need to get back to basics. Any ideas?
Well, to begin with, I would say that the people you mentioned can’t see the forest for the trees. No matter what their profession is, no matter how many college degrees they may have, I just wouldn’t consider such people to be intelligent when it comes matters of genuine importance. Life is a struggle for survival. Too many whites have been made soft and complacent by relative wealth and comfort, at least by world standards. (Not that I’m saying all whites are wealthy and have this mindset — they certainly all don’t, thank God.)
On the issue of IQ, I don’t believe intelligence can be easily measured, because there are so many dimensions and facets of it. I think our current dilemma is an issue of healthy instincts versus unhealthy instincts.
“I call an animal, a species, an individual corrupt, when it loses its instincts, when it chooses, when it prefers, what is injurious to it.” — Friedrich Nietzsche (The Anti-Christ)
‘A nation cannot live on basketball and rape alone’.
And so it begins…
I knew it could only be one writer.
Would publicly posting “A nation cannot live on basketball and rape alone” be promoting hate speech?
Really enjoyed the article, it reminded me of a time 30+ years ago. I knew this guy who went to a KJV only baptist college in Pensacola Florida run by a guy named Ruckman, he used to refer to blacks as hammites, and talked about a prison ministry where they were ” leading 30 niggers a day to the Lord”. We had an uppity black acquaintance who he called “Hammy Davis Jr”,after the former one eyed jewish rat pack member. Thanks Jim for triggering that precious memory.
Goadspeed the Goadfly! Can honestly say this maiden Goading is a great success.
And much credit to Greg for pursuing the coup…Everybody let’s fling more funds into CC’s coffers and celebrate the momentum.
Black Rape: I had heard awhile back that Eric Holder had quietly nixxed the FBI stats on interracial rape…so prejudicial were they to his inviolable tribe that he had deemed them racist. Does anyone have any hard data or sources on this?
Glad to see you back, Jim.
A friend’s mother used to teach in the Louisiana public schools and encountered many bizarre black names. Once she saw “Psalm CIV” on the roster but no student answered when she spoke it. When she showed the name to a student who hadn’t answered the girl said, “That’s me. My name pizzum sieve.”
It is too bad we don’t have an upvote/downvote system here. I’d give you the upward arrow here. Greg wants substantial comments – no LOLs, etc. – if I recall correctly from years ago, but some responses provoke much wheezy laughter and approval yet no more need be said. So, let’s have the plus/minus or up ‘n’ down arrows in lieu of trying to fill space with something weighty. Thank you.
Somehow I don’t see this ever being posted at Takimag.
Certainly not the illustration. You’re right, this is a much better setting.
Speaking of names, when did Americans start naming their girls with last names like McKenzie? Why? Anybody know?
And what happens when a Coney Barret marries another double namer like Bader Ginsburg?
Name of a murder suspect on The First 48:
Stentory Calhoun.
Jim’s right, NO race does it better.
We are all Goadeans now!
Waiting for Cory Booker or Maizie Hirono to demand ACB denounce Jim Goad in 3, 2, 1.
I articulated a point very similar to this one the other day. I hate idiot whites more than I hate blacks. Whites, for all their casual mental and moral superiority, are suckers. No other race on this planet would put up with the shit that whites put up with. No other race would willingly serve as the cuckold of the world. Whites deserve derision for willingly bowing to manipulative Jews, for allowing themselves to worship what’s inferior, for not standing up for their own kind even in their own damn countries. Yes, these aren’t white schemes, but whites bought into them and whites are letting it happen. That makes them complicit.
There is nothing worse in this world than a Bad White.
Ghetto school teachers and cops know that African immigrants are a lot nicer and more civilized than African Americans. The low IQ is a black racial thing because of a lower density of high IQ-linked genes in African populations, but the heightened level of nastiness is mostly an African American thing. It seems to be due to bad genes and environment. I’d prefer all African American criminals get out of jail early in exchange for a vasectomy or getting their tubes tied. Additionally, welfare should be almost the same amount of money for one kid as for more than one. Curbing the worst of them from reproducing would be a service to humanity. I would rather think of the kind African immigrants I know and the few nice African Americans than the plethora of mean African Americans I’ve met.
The recent interview between Greg Johnson and Jim Goad was hilarious. I still feel that people should be judged on their conformity to the prevailing ideology of the locale – or I should be. As Lenin would have it, a parasitic living is available to me based victimhood status, so I am willing to profess that party line.
The only time I have been cut off welfare was when I was charged with kidnapping while wearing a trump hat. It was never quite clear which was more egregious. During the trial, my lawyer mentioned the Trump hat in support of his theory that I was mentally deranged.
(I am probably lucky that neither the police nor my Jewish lawyer read the copy of “The Occidental Observer” I had been reading at the time.)
Fortunately, the charges were later dropped, so my first donation will come from the next welfare cheque, courtesy of the Canadian taxpayers.
It’s great that Jim Goad is writing at Counter-Currents instead of the social services department. If that were the case, I’d be out on a job – along with many similarly deprived brown people.
Very artful essay. Black art you might say.
I had listened to Greg’s interview with this writer and wondered if Greg wasn’t a little over enthusiastic about adding him to the stable. Obviously I had never read Goad. He is really very clever in a faux trashy sort of way. Which I like very much. He would probably claim to be real trash though.
Anyway, I look forward to his next piece.
It’s so nice to be able to comment on Mr Goad’s thought-provoking articles again. Unfortunately he crystallized my thoughts most eloquently so i have little to say.
Humans, more and more, force themselves to ‘believe in 7 impossible things before breakfast’.
What a state of unreality when a nation can riot and loot in protest because a couple of africans were being held accountable for their behaviour. There should’ve been rioting by Americans years ago at the amount of crime they commit. Imagine America filled with actual Americans…
Great to read another Goad cracker. Looks like I’ll be adding counter currents to my reading list.
Good to have Jim onboard, he’s a real treasure.
Jesus this is good. hopefully you can just do you on here jim.
Also 13 do 50 is even more terrifying when you account for gender and age. A very small part of the population is fucking up society badly, Any sane person regardless of their background is right to have their antenna up at the sight of youfs. “never relax” as a wise cartoonist once said….
Spell checkers are racist:

This seems a little low brow for Counter Currents.
Jim, I appreciated the fact that while at Taki you showed just a bit of restraint. Here you are preaching to the choir. Lovely words, but nothing that will change opinions.
From the article, “So I reserve most of my hatred not for blacks, but for the liars who not only lack the honor to cop to their lies but whose lies put people in harm’s way.”
The Black Problem would be relatively easy to deal with if we could solve the Israelite problem. The Israelites cannot be dealt with until approximately 10% of elite Whites wake up.
How about Euthanasia as a name for a girl baby?
I know a white female who named her daughter Felanie. Not joking.
