Despair is a Sin

Spencer J. Quinn

2,164 words

Okay, so the worst possible outcome has come to pass. We can all, however, take solace in the fact that it wasn’t our fault. It wasn’t Donald Trump’s fault either. He was our fighter — flawed but spirited — who had taken our nemesis Joe Biden into the later rounds and was thoroughly shellacking him when the referee suddenly held Trump in place and allowed Biden to start whaling away on him below the belt. Then, before Trump could respond, the fight was called. After that, the promoter, the judges, the ring doctor, the commentators, the announcer, even Trump’s handlers stepped in and congratulated Joe Biden as the winner.

Trump’s bellowing protests were ignored. Anyone in press row who cried “Fix!” was escorted from the building. And when the outraged crowd stormed the ring to express their frustration, they were called terrorists and criminals and shot at.

The only fault we can ascribe to Trump — and, let’s be honest, to ourselves — is underestimating the Left’s willingness and ability to cheat. We fought fair. They didn’t. There is no more to it than that. We assumed the computers would tally votes correctly and that GOP poll watchers wouldn’t be kicked out of buildings and that there wouldn’t be dubious halts to the counting in the middle of the night in certain swing states. Something this brazen had never happened before, so we shouldn’t beat ourselves up too much for not predicting it. We also shouldn’t point fingers at people on the Right. Yes, Trump as president did some foolish things (the ridiculous Platinum Plan comes to mind), but if the Democrats hadn’t cheated he would have won handily anyway.

The takeaway here is that this is no time to punch right, feel sorry for ourselves, or to wallow in defeat. We won. It took everything the Left had to reverse that.

Now, fear I can understand. A Biden (and, likely, Harris) presidency will bring all sorts of oppression upon the heads of Trump supporters and on the Right in general, and if you’re not feeling a bitter pit of fear in your gut, then you need to catch up on your news consumption. We all can imagine what’s going to happen very soon: greater COVID crackdowns, greater immigration and amnesty, the abolition of free speech, the purging of Right-wing content from the internet, increased Antifa and Black Lives Matter presence, the direct targeting of high-profile (or even low-profile) Trump supporters, and many other things, I’m sure. Then, of course, throw in the typical evils the Democrats bring with them — high unemployment, gun control, and higher taxes — and what we are facing, essentially, is communist night descending upon the West. Our freedoms are being repudiated, our leaders and elites are no longer hiding their contempt for us, and those of us who still maintain a patriotic, spiritual, or ideological link to the Founding Fathers of this nation no longer have faith in our system.

For good or for ill, the American nation as a free and democratic republic will not last long after this. Nor should it.

This could be bad, of course. I don’t need to elaborate on how. But this ongoing debacle does provide a couple of opportunities to the Right, the Dissident Right especially.

One is that our enemies aren’t thinking rationally. They remain in full paranoia mode, even with Trump promising an orderly transition of power on January 20. They blame him for the recent storming of the Capitol Building despite never doing any such thing and then calling the National Guard on the protestors. With less than two weeks to go in his presidency, ranking Democrats are still calling for his impeachment. Most preciously, Nancy Pelosi, twit that she is, was worried that Trump might start a nuclear war. The Left seems to be laying a new imaginary outrage at Trump’s feet every twelve minutes.

Trump is their boogeyman. Even in victory, the Left can’t get him out of their nightmares. These are not rational people we are dealing with here. This means they will make mistakes and become predictable, all in an attempt to forcefully implement the Great Replacement twenty years ahead of schedule. In 2040, with whites most likely in the minority and desiccated by years of mass immigration, I am not sure the Right would be able to stop it. 2021 is a different story, however. In 2021, the Right is still strong. Hell, we just won an election, despite the weight of our media, political class, and moneyed elites propping up our enemies.

Last Wednesday, we had a quarter-million mostly white, mostly peaceful people show up in Washington, DC to show how strong we still are. And we’re mad as hell. This also happened in Atlanta on the same night when a large group of Trump supporters surrounded the Georgia State Capitol to present a list of grievances. Fearing for his safety, police escorted Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger out of the building.

I used to think that physically menacing political protest was solely the domain of the Left. Not anymore. Right now, the Right — and by this, I mean nativist, traditional-minded American patriots who at the very least are anti-Left and anti-anti-white in their racial outlook — are beginning to make the Left fear us more than they fear COVID. And instead of placating the furious beast, the Left will only antagonize it further with increasingly draconian measures of oppression — at least the ones in government will. They don’t know any better, and are in any case not rational. This will likely escalate and escalate until either the country breaks apart on its own (we hope, we hope) or is consumed in a second civil war.

I know, I have written two novels which deal with a second civil war, so of course I’ll say such things. But is there any likelier outcome here? I would be more worried if the Democrats started paying lip service to Rightist demands at this point. If Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and others publicly forbade Facebook and Twitter from deplatforming thousands of Trump supporters as they’ve done recently, this would indicate that the Left is playing the long game. They would be getting the Right used to the new normal, easing that poisoned needle into our skin rather than attempting to jab us in the arm with it. Under these circumstances, the frog gets boiled when it still thinks it’s going for a dip. No secession. No civil war.

Not that I want a civil war, but it is somewhat inspiring to be part of a movement that not only takes its own side in a fight, but takes the initiative as well.

The second great opportunity recent events have provided dissidents is to increase our proximity to non-dissidents — MAGA types, jaded ex-military, disgruntled Republicans, 2A boosters, Tea Party remnants, and strong, liberty-loving ‘Muricans without whom we really don’t have a great country to begin with. These are people who know truth and justice when they see it, but just haven’t gotten around to taking the Jared Taylor red pill just yet. When the Left, from its illegitimate perch in the White House, commences its Kristallnacht against the Right in 2021, they are not going to bother distinguishing the above groups from real dissidents. We’re all Nazis to them.

You can buy Spencer Quinn’s novel White Like You here.

I will bet that with the Left hounding their every move like prey, many of these Trump supporters will be less likely to spurn dissidents who only want to offer solace and help out. This means that dissidents need to start joining clubs. 2A clubs, militias, neo-Confederates, the Daughters of the American Revolution. I don’t know. Check your local listings and see what’s out there. There is an excellent chance that we’ll be deprived of the internet anyway, so forming IRL relationships with would-be allies is probably a good idea. So what if some of these people are racial egalitarians and have non-whites among them. This is something we’re just going to have to deal with.

And by “deal with,” I mean that we are going to need an attitude adjustment when interacting with our normie friends. First, we have to drop the idea that a white ethnostate is going to be formed in the next few years in a righteous burst of white race-patriotism. That ship is setting sail right now, and with God knows how many black and brown immigrants a President Harris will invite to our shores, it will be gone gone gone before we know it. Not that I think a white ethnostate will never come into being; I just think we should play the long game in the same way our enemies have been playing the long game against us since 1965. We’re not going to live to see the Promised Land, guys. Even with Civil War II, it’s going to take decades at least.

This sounds defeatist, but it isn’t. I’ve discussed this before in Part Two of my “Wargaming Secession” series in which I introduced the ISEE Model of White Survival. Essentially, we attempt to force secession along with as many normies and non-whites as will have us, and in the resulting right-wing milieu, we spread our message until a true white ethnostate becomes feasible.

Here’s the graphic I developed.

With this theoretical model in mind, we need to play nice with our normie allies and put up with PC nonsense that we wouldn’t put up with online. This means no larping, no swastikas, no oven jokes. You get the picture. Just because we’re red-pilled on race does not mean we’re better than others.

The second attitude adjustment involves our message. How can we politely present our ideas to win as many of these people over as possible? I would suggest we distill Dissident Right ideas down to three essential and easily swallowed points.

Race is real. All challenges to this must be met with scientific and psychometric research. These articles at American Renaissance can get one started.

Ethnocentrism is natural. I don’t think we can improve upon Greg Johnson’s three-part “White Identity Politics” series for laying out a clear case for ethnonationalism. One can be pro-white and not anti-anyone else. This is a point that will always bear repeating when converting normies.

The Jewish Question has no definitive answer. My experience has shown that anyone who claims to have the answer will automatically alienate those who claim to have different answers. Truth is less important than perception here. For example, even if the Jewish Holocaust were indeed a big hoax, asserting so in mixed company without the ability to spend hours proving your point will only be counter-productive. Imagine Andrew Anglin sharing a bunker with Kurt Schlichter — both are Right-wing populist types who would relish a real insurrection against our Left-wing power elites. And this is great. But the topic of the long-nose, small-hat people would quickly bring these two to blows. Does this kind of strife bring us closer to our goals? In the end, does it really matter who’s right?

The best we can do with the JQ is to gently yet persistently challenge the prevailing philo-Semitism of our age. We should also avoid having all the answers (even if we do). For example, Mike Enoch and Eric Striker recently discussed how Jews were largely behind the recent push to normalize transsexuality. They may be correct about that, but since perception trumps truth when it comes to the JQ, mouthing off to normies about Jew this and Jew that will only make one seem like a crank, a conspiracy theorist, or someone who likes to blame others for their failings. I’m not saying this is the case with Strike and Mike — nor am I criticizing them. But when normal dissidents who don’t have the communication skills of Strike or Mike deal with our normie allies in the same way, they very well might come across as cranks.

The best would be to ask the right questions until the appropriate Judeo-critical answers come out.

It’s kind of weird how so many high-profile proponents of transsexualism are Jewish. I’m not a conspiracy theorist or anything, but I do wonder why that is.

One more thing we need to impress on others: Nazi bad, Bolshevik worse. Even better: Jewish Holocaust bad, Ukrainian Holodomor worse. Once we can impress these easily provable facts onto our normie allies, as well as the demonstrably true fact that the Bolsheviks of the 1920s and 1930s were disproportionately Jewish, then swallowing the reddest of red pills becomes quite a bit easier.

Things may seem somewhat dismal right now for the Dissident Right, but that’s no reason to despair. Despair may offer comfort for those of us who feel they need it right now. I’ve indulged in it more than a couple times since November 3, myself. But despair serves no constructive purpose. It only hides new opportunities and makes winning that much harder to do.

So be a winner, not a sinner.

    I like what you said about the Jewish Question having no definitive answer. It’s a complicated problem that has recurred in Western history for centuries. I certainly don’t feel like I have all the answers, and I’ve read and thought about it a lot.

    I’ve had some success talking about it as follows: Being Jewish is more like an ethnic group than a religion, Jews are not white, they don’t see themselves as white, when they use the word “white” they’re talking about a group they don’t see themselves as belonging to, they have a very negative view of white people who they see as their historic enemies and persecutors, they’re also afraid of white people being their potential future persecutors, they also just think they’re superior to white people and resent being a minority and having to defer to the majority.

    Also that Jews are an intellectual people, very influential in academia, the media, and cultural establishment, and that they’re very good at shaping public opinion. That sometimes they think more in terms of shaping public opinion than telling the truth, especially when driven by fear, it’s “what do we want white people to think?” or “bad things could happen if white people believe X”.

    I haven’t really said anything negative about Jews, just that they see things differently.

    I would talk about the race and intelligence issue first. It’s easy to establish that there’s a large gap between expert opinion and the mainstream narrative here, just point out Nicholas Wade’s book, etc. Then that leads into Jewish influence in the elite likely being a major factor, that Jews are terrified of the idea of biological differences because it reminds them of Nazi Germany.

    I would also first establish that the media narratives about race are often dishonest, easy to do. The Michael Brown Hoax is my favorite example because it was just so blatant and easily verifiable. Once people start wondering why the media and academia are dishonest and anti-white, the Jewish influence factor will drop into place (I don’t claim that it’s the only factor either, just a significant one).

    The immigration issue is a good example too, you can point out how Jews are hysterically opposed to even moderate and sensible restriction, far more so than Hispanics (polling data confirms this). Again, not even saying anything negative about Jews, just that they see things differently, even from other minorities not just white people.

    People have been so conditioned to think any talk about Jews is kooky, the only way to avoid being dismissed as a crackpot I think is to talk to people who already respect you as someone intelligent and reasonable. Some people just won’t be willing or able to listen, you have to pick people who are receptive. Again I’d start with general media dishonesty on race, and the race and intelligence issue. Don’t assume that people have to be conservative or right-wing necessarily, separate it from other unrelated issues like health care, economic issues, etc.

    I’ve learned a lot from Counter Currents and hope you stay on the Internet.

    Great essay, Mr. Quinn. After feeling the kind of gloom that has been common among us lately, I actually had a spring in my step this morning, thinking about how many of us in the UK, USA and Europe there really are. That is, when one considers not just die-hard dissident rightists, but also the many good, decent people who love their traditional cultures and peoples, but haven’t taken those final red pills yet.

    There really are a lot of good people who are disgusted by this anti-nature, anti-human regime which has seized control. As you discussed, we need to approach them with sympathy and reasonableness.

    1. Jud Jackson says:
      January 13, 2021 at 1:45 am

      I disagree. No Fox means no Tucker. Tucker never comes off as a White Nationalist but he often has Heather McDonald on as a guest. She, herself, may not be a WN but she is excellent, especially on Black Crime. Tucker is excellent although not perfect. Obviously, having Jared Taylor in Tucker’s chair would be much better but we all know that will never happen.

      1. Spencer Quinn says:

        Not necessarily. No Fox could also mean Tucker goes to Newsmax or OANN.

    This was a deep state operation all the way. The jews decided to get Trump out when he refused to send troops into Syria, and was making noise about pulling all troops out of the middle east. Remember how Netanyahu ran up to Biden, and started complaining about Iran right after the election. We should have, (I should have) seen this coming, but I overestimated the fealty that Trump’s numerous deeds, and servile attitude for Israel should have produced (never trust a jew). They couldn’t kill Trump, because the Kennedy assassination is still too strong in the public mind (Too many people would be red-pilled). My predictions for the next four years:
    1)Within 1 to 2 years we will be at war with Iraq to placate Israel.
    2) Universal amnesty, and citizenship will be awarded to all illegal immigrants in U.S.
    3) Construction on the fence will cease, and in some places, possibly torn down.
    We do have one hope though, it is the hope the covid-19 virus mutates, and goes buck-wild, and shuts everything down.

    This is definitely on the right track. We have to play the long game. We have to focus on what we agree on, not what we disagree on. We have to schmooze, nonthreateningly, with normies. The Left are going to make a lot of mistakes, because their entire agenda is based on anti-reality. Things are going to get very ugly in the short- and medium-term, but try to not let the bahstahds grind you down.

    1. Spencer Quinn says:

      Right. Despair is what our enemies want us to feel. We just need to act with greater urgency now and think outside the box for solutions.

      1. Douglas says:
        January 13, 2021 at 12:24 pm

        Fair enough. Let’s pose some solutions.

        Normies are of little use. Hell they even voluntarily closed their churches they are so fund of. How do I know? I frequent the church. No one in my family including In-laws will go now because the churches closed their doors in fear. That is how bad the panic is. When churches will quickly close their doors how easily do you think those that believe in nothing will panic? I think a lot of people on the Right are missing just how devastating that has been because many especially on the Dissident Right do not consider Christian churches of any value and worse a hindrance to the cause of Whites.

    “The Jewish Question has no definitive answer”.

    Theoretically the answer would be ethnonationalism-for-Jews, i.e. now that they have their own ethno-state, all Jews should emigrate to it. Since Jews can’t help themselves being subversive of their host nation, that would be the only solution. The state of Israel itself would welcome that.

  9. J. K. says:
    January 12, 2021 at 9:24 am

    I was pro-Israel until relatively recently. I thought the JQ was total bullshit. But enough people whose opinions I respected believed it, so I, eventually, considered it … and changed my mind.

    But I remember how vehemently I felt about it before. It was a real stumbling block, and were I not so pro-white already I might have been turned off to etho-nationalism entirely had I had more interaction with certain of our brethren who, let’s say, have an all-or-nothing approach to the JQ.

    I’m all in: as a group they’d be gone from the ethnostate, never to re-enter. But it took a while to get there, and the tactics suggested in this article might have gotten me there even quicker.

    1. Douglas says:
      January 13, 2021 at 12:31 pm

      Same here. I was converted from Christian Zionists to totally aware of the destructive behaviors of Jews.

      It started when my wife got me the book, “Blacklisted” by Ann Coulter. Seems very mild. But that led to Whitaker Chambers’ book “Witness” which I read at the library. I finally bought it and reread it. The awakening for me was the Jewish names throughout the book detailing the communist plots to take over America. Chambers married a Jew. I have cataloged the names. Over half the names mentioned as people in the communist party are Jews. Contrast that the how few Jews lived in America in the 1920s and 1930.

      It was my awakening.

    And yet, it tasted, like them all,
    The Figures I have seen
    Set orderly, for Burial
    Reminded me, of mine –

    As if my life were shaven,
    And fitted to a frame,
    And could not breathe without a key,
    And ’twas like Midnight, some –

    When everything that ticked – has stopped –
    And space stares – all around –
    Or Grisly frosts – first Autumn morns,
    Repeal the Beating Ground –

    January 12, 2021 at 10:32 am

    One problem with this approach is that if ever such a ragtag alliance was formed among white dissidents and various breeds of “normies”, and by some twist of fate things really did start turning our way, wouldn’t we have to shed all these people the closer we got to our ultimate goal?

    If you say these people could stay on indefinitely, aren’t you betraying one of your fundamental principles of race realism?

    In fact, isn’t such inclusion at the outset a half measure, and ultimately incapable of producing the desired result? Also, wouldn’t you be guilty of the same error that you accuse Trump of with Israel, only this time in regards to racial egalitarians.

    I find it difficult to get away from the frog and the scorpion analogy here.

    1. J. K. says:
      January 12, 2021 at 11:47 am

      The idea, I believe the article suggests, is to ultimately “convert” them, rather than writing them off just because they’re not on board with every point yet.

      Metaphorically, a military does not consist of only special-operations soldiers. There are a lot more mediocre troops, relatively speaking, but their role is important too.

    2. Spencer Quinn says:
      January 13, 2021 at 6:04 am

      According to the ISEE Model of White Survival, whites must break off from the husk of the increasingly left-wing and racially diverse United States by whatever means, including forming a new nation that is less left wing and less racially diverse but still committed at least somewhat to the project of diversity. Under these new circumstances our propaganda would have better chance of success, so that eventually a real white ethnostate can break off and be formed. This will take decades, I predict.

      I believe gradualism is the answer here. If we as dissidents lead with calls for whites-only ethnostates now, most likely we’ll not succeed. If anyone thinks this model is wrong, I’m all ears to hear about it.

      1. Douglas says:
        January 13, 2021 at 12:28 pm

        Remember when the guy tried to start a White settlement in the Dakotas? That didn’t work out so well.

        A better plan would be to join your local Anti-fa and BLM. Subvert them the way we have been subverted. Cause descension. Also encourage the Africans to form their own communities by telling them the whiteman is evil and they would be better off in their own communities. Some are already seeking this. Hell even volunteer to solicit money for this.

    I think that while we are all sitting home in survival mode, bristling with ideas and schemes, but impotent to make them real, we must study European and American history to the max, in order to have facts at hand. If possible, attend online college or university classes in European history, and even if you can spot the Leftist drift in the teaching, take it in, and then research what else was happening in that country at the same time period. Much of our education will need to be ‘self-generated’, but we need that scrap of paper after four years for societal verification — and to get a job in the field. Major in European History, European languages — French, German, Italian and Russian at a minimum (Spanish you can pick up from bi-lingual signs surrounding you soon enough), and especially European Art and Music — Classical Music is available 24/7 on radio and internet. If possible, find a folk-dance group near you, because when your whole body is involved and having a good time dancing, you’ll be more easily connected to the shreds of your ancestry. I seriously believe that doing all of the foregoing will help us become closer to our culture and form our bonds with each other, which will carry us through the oncoming onslaught without having to resort to violence. Build your culture, while ignoring those who would drown us if they could.

    Very hopeful article again, thank you, except for the “We’re not going to live to see the Promised Land, guys”.
    I don’t know, History has a funny way of moving by gradual quantitative steps, and then take a huge qualitative leap that surprises us all (that dialectics stuff). I think we were all surprised by the very rapid developments of this stolen election and of the Capitol rally; I also think that this event red-pilled more Americans faster than many events before.

    There is already some planning for secession, “Escape” (here):

    https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/01/texas-lawmakers-consider-secession-life-democrat-marxism-several-states-interested-movement-video/

    In Canada there is now a “Maverick Party” with great support in the West, which will be running in the next election and will hold a referendum on separation of Alberta and Saskatchewan.

    Even now, there are thousands of small towns and counties across North America which are 95% White. We just need them to secede.

    If I could live in one of these enclaves (what you call the ‘Escape option’), I would be happy enough –even if it is not the 100% pure White Ethnostate.

    The JQ is important, but it’s not the central point of White Nationalism.

    If there were no ‘white nationalist’ ideology, White people would still prefer their own kind and when gathered together for a common cause, would still enjoy each other’s company.

    The Germans have a word for this: Gemütlichkeit

    I think opening the phone book (or the equivalent) and looking for a IRL group organized around something in which you have an interest that isn’t overtly political is a good idea.

    Don’t go there to convert anyone. Go there to be a willing participant.

    The best ‘argument’ for White Nationalism is going to be White Nationalists who stand out from the crowed when the anti-Whites start trying to push ordinary people around.

    Today, I feel like Whites can get to 90% of a win just by being themselves and not letting anti-Whites and non-Whites push them around.

    Love your people. Have respect for them and yourself.

      Hi Siegheil

      We must remember that perception trumps truth when it comes to converting normies. It does not matter if your opinion is correct. What matters is leading normies down the right paths. To boldly declare that everything they learned in school a is lie will have less success than simply pointing out that there are things they weren’t taught in school that contradict the prevailing narrative.

      This in my opinion is more easily swallowed, and therefore is the better tactic.

    I enjoyed this thoughtful essay, and am a writer myself, with two published novels (now out of print, but I’m starting to self-publish). I did an American Civil War II novel in the 90’s, but decided not to continue, because I wasn’t that good a writer, and I needed to improve. Also, Harold Covington’s NW novels were much better, and I let him own the subject.

    On Jews. Some years ago, I was in a theater group, and one playwright came to read a play; he was a Jew, very glib and had their usual gift of gab, bragged how he’d been a marine (he wrote a play, A Marine in Leotards, ha-ha), and of his Irish red-haired wife. Really liked bragging about his shiksa. He liked to joke about how little goyim knew about jews.
    The play he read, a memory piece about life in NYC circa 1948, was kind of bland, but I noticed in particular when a character was so proud Jackie Robinson had made it. ‘At last,’ he said, ‘one of us got in.’
    I’d never thought of Jews as not being white, and this kind of startled me. It was an early start of being Jew aware. Recently, I sent an email to a writer’s group I’d been in, when one of them, a man, whined about his guilt in oppressing women, how men have been this and that, and how BLM is a wonderful tool for healing. I replied that it was ‘Black Lies Matter.’ The group was furious, and demanded I be expelled. One woman, married to a Jew, swore at me on the replies, referring me to an article on the internet…an article saying anyone who criticized BLM and Soros was anti-semitic.
    They really own the arts, and much of our national intellect is frankly controlled by them, but it is a symbiotic relationship between our upper class and them. Trump is a New Yorker, and obviously Jews have a major influence in his thinking and planning, especially since they married into the family, which seems a common trait, much like Jews did with the English aristocracy.
    As Harold Covington said, Jews always had a back door to the White House, but with Trump they were at the breakfast table, for all the good it did him. But they are only part of the system against our racial unity.
    I was a bit down this evening, but reading this essay cheered me up.
    As for the current situation, I like the meme ‘things aren’t getting worse, only more clear.’
    With clarity, a real struggle can begin.

      It was only around the 1980s that some of them started calling themselves non-White. It’s a long subject, but they’re essentially a peripheral Mediterranean population, not entirely too different from Greeks and Sicilians. If only they’d knock it off with the maladaptive behavior, they’d be a lot better accepted.

    Yes, despair is a sin, but it’s also a sin to pretend the Right has won anything and did not sink even deeper into irrelevancy.

      The Right is lost for at least a couple of generations. It may in fact never fully recover. I also believe we are entering a new Dark Age. Over all IQs are going down fast. It is best to teach our people to hide and grow strong as dissidents. It is far too late to try and convert people.

    ENJOY your FINAL DEMISE, filthy Fascist Trumpanzees and Nazi/KKK/Alt-Right potential mass murderers and genocidal maniacs!… KARMA is a bitch! You are all LIVING FOSSILS, soon to disappear for ever in the Sewers of History: good riddance! No decent human being shall ever regret the sorry pack of you!…

      Oh c’mon! Don’t kick us while we’re down! Why don’t you go attack a more formidable enemy like the children of Gaza? But don’t count us out; the shark is a living fossil, and so is the horseshoe crab, and the opossum. Sorry to say the oldest of all, the coelecanth, may be earmarked for extinction because the Africans put them on the dinner table.

    The JQ will have a definitive answer when WN’s have definitive power. But, I agree that casually pointing out J’s high involvement in degeneracy will go a long way. Remember, it took AH walking through corrupt Vienna, and seeing for himself the true nature of Js, to lead him down the path of discovering their historical presence in anti-White, anti-natural movements.
