Watching footage from January 6th’s “Capitol Siege,” I saw oceans of American flags and Trump flags. I heard people screaming about democracy and a stolen election. I heard them chanting “Christ is King!” and “Four more years!” I saw what appeared to be a crowd composed mostly of boomers and soon-to-be-boomers yelping about how, every so often, the tree of liberty needs to be refreshed with the blood of tyrants.
Apparently I was hallucinating, because it was actually a white-power rally. Or at least that’s how “they” are spinning it.
Hillary Clinton — whose vaginal fangs are still bloodthirsty after her husband’s public infidelities and the loss of an election that she and her ilk insisted for three years was hijacked by homophobic Russian disinformation bots until people started realizing these allegations were baseless — wrote an OpEd for the Washington Post where she spoke of “a violent mob waving Confederate flags and hanging nooses.”
I’m only aware of one person waving one Confederate flag. I’d bet my house that Confederate flags were outnumbered by American and Trump flags by a factor of about a thousand to one. And I’m pretty sure that the dimwits who erected a gallows said it was for Mike Pence — who, for better or worse, is no Emmett Till. Beyond that, there was one guy with long grey hair wearing a “Camp Auschwitz” sweatshirt, but unless he personally explains why he wore it, I think it’s open to interpretation. Maybe he felt that MAGApedes were going to be sent to concentration camps?
No idea. I wish I was able to read minds like so many other writers are.
But based on that one Rebel flag, that one noose, and that one rioter wearing an ambiguous sweatshirt, mainstream pundits said the event was a murderous expression of toxic whiteness.
Hillary Clinton stopped bitch-slapping her husband long enough to peck out the following:
Wednesday’s attack on the Capitol was the tragically predictable result of white-supremacist grievances fueled by President Trump. . . . Trump ran for president on a vision of America where whiteness is valued at the expense of everything else. . . . There are changes elected leaders should pursue immediately, including advocating new criminal laws at the state and federal levels that hold white supremacists accountable and tracking the activities of extremists such as those who breached the Capitol.
When did Donald Trump ever address white people as a group?
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said that the rioters “care [more] about preserving the social order and the mythology of whiteness than the grandeur of our democracy.” She also said that the riot was about Republicans “not giving a damn about the law” but “giving a damn about white supremacy.”
I don’t think Republicans have ever given a damn about “white supremacy” or about white people in general. They’ve consistently made that clear.
After soaking her head in a 50-gallon drum of retinol, Nancy Pelosi said that the rioters proved they had “chose their whiteness over democracy”:
I thought it was going to be an epiphany for those who were in opposition of our democracy to see the light. Instead, it was an epiphany for the world to see that there are people in our country, led by this President, for the moment, who have chosen their whiteness over democracy. That’s what this is about. . . . When that assault was taking place on the Capitol, 3,865 people in our country died of the coronavirus, many of them people of color because of the injustice of it all.
At least from the words and actions of the protesters, they seemed highly focused on democracy. The entire event was based on the premise that the election had been stolen from them. I didn’t see or hear anyone make a point of being white.
Billionaire Richard Branson bewailed the event, saying it was an “outpouring of hate” based on his allegation that a “large portion of America’s electorate . . . [is] gripped by fear of a rapidly changing world and the dismantling of privilege and power generations of white people have come to take for granted, knowingly or not.”
Unless you hate the “generations of white people” in question, how is it a bad thing to resist losing power? One wonders how Richard Branson would feel if Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez told him that his $4.5-billion fortune was only made possible through white supremacy and that he had to be immediately divested of every last penny — by force, if necessary.
The New York Times referred to the event as a “white riot.”
You can buy Jim Goad’s Whiteness: The Original Sin here.
The Associated Press — which formally capitalized “black” but kept “white” lowercase last year — was very careful not to share too much information about exactly who died in this “deadly” riot. The AP said that “Five people died in the mayhem” and that Capitol Police “calmly asked [rioters] to leave the premises.”
I suppose it would be detrimental to the AP’s narrative to mention that a black cop “calmly” shot an unarmed white woman dead with one bullet to her neck.
Another AP article said that the siege left “a Capitol Police officer and four others dead.” It failed to mention that the dead cop was a Trump supporter and, again, painstakingly tiptoed around that whole thing where the black cop killed an unarmed white woman.
The Conversation alleged that the “White supremacists who stormed US Capitol are only the most visible product of racism.” It equated the Proud Boys with the Ku Klux Klan.
A certain Ronald [cough] Brownstein, senior editor at the Atlantic, spoke enthusiastically of “Joe Biden’s Looming War on White Supremacy”:
The attack could also make it tougher for congressional Republicans to resist the Biden administration’s expected efforts to dramatically increase enforcement against white supremacists through the Justice Department, the FBI, and the Department of Homeland Security. By demonstrating both the danger of white nationalism and the bias in policing, last week’s assault has not only elevated those issues even further, but also exposed their common roots.
CNN alleged that the siege “redefined White supremacy as a form of treason.”
Since some of the attendees were white women, Vox leapt at the opportunity to explain “White women’s role in white supremacy.”
New York Public Radio used the event to cobble together a “History of White Violence in America.”
David Brooks — the New York Times’ token fake conservative — wrote that if the rioters had been black, the Capitol’s “hallways would be drenched with blood.”
Hmm. I tend to remember about 200 days of nonstop black rioting over alleged police brutality starting in late May last year, but my memory fails me when I try to remember any white cop shooting an unarmed black person in the throat throughout the whole sordid affair.
Also writing for the Times, someone named Farhad Manjoo — sounds like one of the Founding Fathers, right? — alleged that
These were not just the Trump loyalists of lore, that economically marginalized, over-elegized white working class of the heartland. . . No, the crowd that stormed the Capitol was a big tent of whiteness, a cross-section of American society bridging divisions of class, geography and demography. They were doctors and lawyers, florists and real estate agents, business executives, police officers, military veterans, at least one elected official and an Olympic gold medalist. They’d all come to coup for America.
PBS said that the siege was “an appeal to the lawlessness that shaped the lynching era.
I’m going to forsake my journalistic duties and state without even researching it that PBS never once referred to the endless George Floyd riots and the copious amount of anti-white rhetoric and anti-white violence that accompanied them as “lawlessness.”
And of course the siege had to be depicted as a Holocaust-in-waiting, with Arnold Schwarzenegger comparing it to Kristallnacht and Chuck Schumer placing a highly religious spin on it, kvetching that “this temple to democracy was desecrated.”
Guys, I’d suggest toning down the Kristallnacht analogies, because it implies that Congress is merely a Jewish storefront.
One thing a few pundits got right was the fact that the Capitol siege turned everyone who is opposed to the Leftist agenda into a KKK terrorist. The Detroit Free Press said that the post-election fallout “erodes buffers between mainstream GOP and extremists.” USA Today said that the siege placed Zio-con Trumptard Jack Posobiec and Andrew Anglin of the Daily Stormer in the same train car to Camp Auschwitz.
We are all wignats now.
All these cold takes about the siege say a lot more about the pundits than they do about the rally’s attendees.
If there’s anything good to come from the event, maybe it’ll wake a few people up to the fact that the Left, aided by the FBI and the mainstream media, has declared war on white people. Don’t you tire of insisting “It’s not about race” when your opponents always correct you and say: “Look — it IS about race! It’s about YOUR evil race!”
Then again, maybe the ones who insist it was a white-power rally are merely projecting. Perhaps it wasn’t about white identity at all — it was about people who’ve made careers out of bashing white people getting secretly terrified to see so many angry white people in one place.

They’re not wrong though are they? The desire for meritocracy and not wanting to live under a blatantly corrupt government seems to be an exclusively White idea. Not wanting identity politics is in itself a form of identity politics as far as brown people are concerned, how many gibs and job positions would they have handed over to them if not for playing up their identity as oppressed victims? When they say White Supremacy, aka Huh-White people, are the greatest threat to the system they’re not wrong, how many non Whites are upset with the direction the country is heading?
Mr. Goad, is your ‘whiteness’ available as an ebook?
Whiteness The Original Sin is available on Kindle
https://www.amazon.com/Whiteness-Original-Sin-Jim-Goad-ebook/dp/B07KQGNT6X/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1610997349&sr=8-1
But if you buy a physical copy on jimgoad.net they are sold autographed by Mr Goad himself. It’s a great read!
Thank you. Kindle it is as I am in Costa Rica and books take a while to get here.
Goad : Guys, I’d suggest toning down the Kristallnacht analogies,
because it implies that Congress is merely a Jewish storefront.
(rimshot)
Me: BWAHAHAHHAAAAHAHAAAHA!!! (falls from chair)
Hmm, I wonder if there was an example from three years prior that would have told us how a handful of examples of bad optics could spoil the entire event?
The event is a signal that a black man can shoot a white woman and keep his identity secret.
White girls going along with this Biden thing really need to wake up.
It would seem that a lot of us are slow learners.
About sums it up. Unfortunately the damned stupid white people will keep watching the mainstream news and mostly buying it. Somehow they seem to think their local news coverage is not as biased as the AP and other cable networks.
Reminds me of the polls showing congress approval of 10% while the same representatives keep getting voted into office over and over. You see it is your representative who is bad not mine.
The people will never realize what happened to them when they give up the guns and are forced to close their mouths
Well, the contradiction between the ratings and the incumbency depends upon the mistaken assumption that the ones giving the ratings have a choice in who is installed. Hopefully, the events of the past few months have disabused anyone still harboring such delusions of their veracity.
I’m up to my ears in Qanontards! These people are freaky. They really seem to believe trump is about to organize some kind of miltary coup. They all say “don’t worry.” Trumps supporters are just as crazy as the Black Lives Matter people and leftists. It’s weird to me, I must say, that I have never in my life encountered an actual white nationalist or dissident rightest, but these Q crazies are everywhere! The average intelligence of the populace is abysmal. I side with Mencken and Veblen that democracy can’t work for this reason.
Desperation can make people believe in just about anything. I’m curious to see what they do when none of it happens.
Where did they come from? I’m completely caught off guard by the Phenomenon. And they are not racist. Far from it. Mostly addled and garbled talk about togetherness.
Oh no they’re quite normie underneath it all. That’s what it is essentially. The status quo explained after being filtered of all racist or other uncomfortable notions, forced Procrusteanly into the two party system template. With jfk jr still being alive as the cherry on top. Where that part comes in I’ll never understand!
Don’t worry guys.
It is pretty funny to listen to the ever stuttering Steve Bannon and his “posse” on War Room these days. They just can’t understand why they are being portrayed as “white supremacists” along with the rest of us.
We’re all “evil white nationalists” now in the media narrative, like it or not.
On Branson…
Eton, then a nice palacial pad in a village outside Oxford called Kidlington. Lots of underage girls and boys at those lovely parties.
Asshole always trading in his golden boy image for branding the Virgin products he hawked.
I read a very convincing account of Branson as a hippy running a second-hand (or Indian-import) clothes shop as a front for drug-dealing, which was the foundation of the Virgin Records empire (the profits on the drugs, not the clothes, of course). I believe it.
However, I checked stupid WP on his education, a subject on which they are likely to be accurate, and it has no resemblance to your claims. Sure, he is a child of the imperial upper classes, but you do no help to those wanting truth by writing lies. Why?
Correct he went to Stowe. That’s for dyslexic aristocrats who can’t do maths.
I wasn’t implying he attended U of Oxford. Big house in Kidlington. Notorious parties.
Personally I think he’s got an ear for music.
Have you chosen your whiteness today?
I wish the Left would, for once and all, give us their exact definition of “White Supremacist”. I am White, been born that way, and scored a 93% (out 0f 99%) in 1960 on the Iowa Tests (disguised IQ tests given to all students back then), so — does this qualify me as a “Supremacist”? If so, what must I do to continue living for at least the next four years, with the Left fully in charge?
I miss the Iowa tests. They were fun.
I miss the Iowa tests. They were fun.
White European cultures or Western cultures if you perfer, Are superior, that is fact. Everyone knows it. Every day more whites are beginning to admit this to themselves. Every day.
Jim, a very excellent article. However, you deserve admonishment everytime you do not capitalize “White”, as in White people. I expect 25 pushups everytime you commit this faux pas.
It’s not house style.
“Soon-to-be-boomers”? Does “boomer” now mean anyone past middle age?
I noted that Nancy Pelosi, displaying her Speaker’s rostrum, said it had been freed after being ‘man handled.’ Ah, that was the sin! I’m sorry, and it’s a shame Ashli Babbit was shot, but I still find the Capitol surge more funny than anything else. Seeing some guy pose at Gerald Ford’s (Mr. Moderation) statue with a MAGA hat on the statue, the medicine man loose in the chamber, and all those valiant Congressfolk hiding under their seats…like people keeping the lights out near Xmas so Christmas Carolers will leave them alone.
You realize what a bunch of dorks these politicians are.
As for the white people thing; yes, maybe it’s time for us to just own up to it. Our enemies say this because they don’t have to hide what they want to do anymore. They feel all the cards are in their favor, so now they can swagger…until they have to duck under the chair.
I’d say more people understand this, although they’ve still got the American curse of NEVER ADMITTING RACE EVER EXISTS.
Like Gore Vidal said, if Americans ever admitted the truth of things, the entire system would fall apart. But now, that 2050 date of a white minority is creeping a lot faster, and will really do a Geiger counter when all those illegals are allowed in. Kevin MacDonald said the enemies of the white race are getting ahead of their plan, and are blurting out what they intend to do.
I said the Capitol surge was funny, but still, there’s something glorious about it. More flashmob than mob, sure, but seeing thousands flood in the Capitol stirs your heart.
After all, it still is kind of OUR Capitol, isn’t it?
And when you hear ‘Who Will Join in Our Crusade?’ in Le Miz, whose side do you think the music is on? The MAGA crowd or the hiding suits and the ‘Man-handled?’
“War by deception.”
One Enemy. One and only.
Follow The Trail: bolshevik revolution, holodomor, killing fields of Middle East, mountains of debt, debt slavery, mass unemployment, mass migration (guaranteed low IG slaves), practically free drug distribution, endless dystopia narrative for whites and finally, destroyed economy.
Now ask yourself a question: Who leads The Trail?
Unmentionables. With all robbed trillions in their pocket.
All other speculation is useless.
America is dead. Recognize that first of all. Your nation is your race; no, the race-loyal elements of your race. The white race is doomed, first to mass enslavement possibly within the lifetime of some younger, healthy readers, and then eventually to extinction via mongrelization and/or extermination.
This end is foretold by the obvious (it is now obvious, right?) genetic defectiveness of a majority of the white race. Our race is lacking some quantum of the normal neurochemicals which would otherwise prevent racial “cuckery” and ensure racial perpetuity (or at least a widespread concern for such among targeted whites). That collective genetic deficiency, in combination with now long-embedded structures of dispossession, guarantees white extinction if we do nothing. We can only save our race through conscious acts of political will.
Being the natural product of genetic forces and drives, and in light of the distance towards extinction which we’ve already traveled, extinction will only be avoided via segregation of the racially healthy from the racio-psychologically defective. Race-conscious whites must relocate themselves to existing polities (whether sovereign countries, or at least demarcated states within the USA) with the goal of eventually becoming electorally/numerically dominant within them, and then eventually seceding from the Union, in America, or transforming at least one existent West European nation into a white racial state.
There are some tens of millions of prowhites on the planet, with perhaps several hundred million more “not-antiwhites” (ie, white racial “indifferents”), who would, however, and for reasons other than white preservation, such as conservative ideology or a placing of personal safety ahead of diversity in value-scales, prefer to live in a prowhite nation. In other words, while most of the West will eventually be lost to alien hordes, there is absolutely the raw material to create at least one populous, wealthy and mighty all-white nation.
This mass relocation of prowhites will be the, and the only, foundation of any future Ethnostate (at least outside of possibly Eastern Europe, and certainly within North America). If we are really really serious about saving the race, we should be able to accomplish the above well before the end of this century. It took Mexicans much less than the 79 years left in this century to conquer California.
The ‘lack’ of which you speak has more to do with the poisonous (or poisoned) attitudes of too many women, than any other factor.
It’s very likely that there will be an exodus of darkies out of Northern Europe after the winter of Covid19. The data will push BAME to think very hard about living in a climate like Denmark, Sweden, UK, Ireland where a respiratory disease can flatten your kin every winter.
Think War of the Worlds.
It seems unlikely. A minority of their number succumbing to Covid 19 – that’s if it’s as dangerous as its made out to be by the MSM, is a relatively small price to pay in return for the benefits of living in First World conditions. Besides where would they go to if they did leave?
We must make it so.
What is Jared Kushner’s role in all of this?
