Have you ever tried to “stir up racial hatred”? Me, neither.
Despite the foul torrents of racially insensitive things I’ve written and said over the years, I come before you today blushing with a raw and naked honesty to state that my intent has never been to “stir up racial hatred.”
I’m not even sure what it means to “stir up racial hatred,” much less to intend to stir it up. Can you attempt to stir up racial hatred and fail? If so, is that worse or better than succeeding at stirring up racial hatred?

The only people who’ve ever stirred up racial hatred in me are members of other races. I think that’s sort of the way the process is supposed to work.
In my experience, racial hatred is something you either feel naturally or you don’t, so I can’t grasp why someone would feel compelled to stir up racial hatred in others, nor do I understand how someone could be so passive as to sit back and allow racial hatred to be stirred up within them simply because the demagogue who’s doing the stirring is quite a smooth talker.

By the way, why is racial hatred always “stirred up”? Why did “stir” become the go-to verb? Just like racial slurs are always “hurled,” racial hatred is always “stirred up.” And in legal terms, what is the distinction between “stirring up racial hatred” and “stoking racial tensions”? Which one’s more serious?
It should come as no surprise that the biggest and most tireless instigators of racial hatred are the aggressive anti-racists. If anyone’s been stirring up racial hatred, it’s the media, universities, corporations, and government with their obsessive and non-stop denigration of all things white.
Last week in England, Sam Melia (pronounced “MEAL-ee-uh”) — described by the British government as a “far-right activist who set up an online library of racist stickers for supporters to download and put up in their area” — was sentenced to two years behind bars. In January he’d been found guilty of two crimes: stirring up racial hatred through the distribution of his stickers and “encouraging racially aggravated criminal damage” by providing downloadable PDFs that enabled aspiring racist vandals to print out the stickers and deface public property with them.
Melia had built up a vault of 200 to 300 “racist” sticker designs, including ones featuring the following phrases:
REJECT WHITE GUILT
WE WILL BE A MINORITY IN OUR HOMELAND BY 2066
WHITE LIVES MATTER
STOP ANTI-WHITE RAPE GANGS
DIVERSITY DID NOT BUILD BRITAIN
LABOUR LOVES MUSLIM RAPE GANGS
LOVE YOUR NATION
MASS IMMIGRATION IS WHITE GENOCIDE
SECOND GENERATION? THIRD? FOURTH? YOU HAVE TO GO BACK
THERE IS A WAR ON WHITES
THEY SEEK CONQUEST NOT ASYLUM
BLOOD AND SOIL
SMALL HATS BIG PROBLEMS
NATIVES LOSING JOBS; MIGRANTS POURING IN
WHY ARE JEWS CENSORING FREE SPEECH?
NATIONALISM IS NURTURE
STOP MASS IMMIGRATION
EQUALITY OR QUALITY — YOU CAN ONLY HAVE ONE
DIVERSITY — DESIGNED TO FAIL, BUILT TO REPLACE
ASK NOT WHAT JEWS CAN DO FOR YOUR COUNTRY. ASK WHAT YOUR COUNTRY CAN DO FOR JEWS.
Imagine that awkward moment when you stroll into your first prison cell and your cellmate says, “I’m stuck here for three consecutive life sentences. I murdered three underage triplets in the course of raping them. What are you in for?”
“Uh, hi, hey, yeah, they nailed me on two counts of stickering.”
Nick Price, head of the Crown Prosecution Service’s Special Crime and Counter Terrorism Division — because, let’s face it, designing and distributing stickers is about as terroristic as it gets — says that Melia was conscious and complicit in the act of racial-hatred-stirring:
Melia was perfectly aware that the stickers he published on his Telegram channel were being downloaded and then stuck up in public places around the country. He also knew full well the impact these racially inflammatory stickers were having. . . . It is illegal to publish such material intending to stir up racial hatred towards others, and the CPS will not hesitate to bring prosecutions against those who break the law in this way.
Moments before his sentencing last week, Melia appeared with his wife, Laura Towler — deputy leader of the British nationalist group Patriotic Alternative — outside the courtroom to thank well-wishers for their support. Since Towler is eight months pregnant, her husband will miss the birth of their second child as he sits behind bars and ponders the gravity of his racial-hatred-stirring.
After the sentencing, Patriotic Alternative’s leader, Mark Collett, criticized the state’s decision:
This is absolutely shocking. A man has been sentenced to two years in jail with immediate effect, i.e., not suspended, for putting up stickers that the Crown admitted firstly contained only lawful speech and secondly did not lead to any criminal acts. They did not incite anyone to do anything so there was really no case against him. The only case was that the Crown wanted to punish him because they felt his supposed motivations were racism. Now that, to me, is the definition of a thought crime.
You can buy Jim Goad’s Whiteness: The Original Sin here.
This isn’t the first time that the Crown has jailed racially-conscious white activists for thought crimes. Last June, Patriotic Alternative member Kristofer Thomas Kearney was sentenced to four years and eight months for “disseminating terrorist publications” after he’d shared the manifestos of Anders Behring Breivik and Brenton Tarrant on his Telegram account.
Last May, pro-white podcaster James Allchurch, AKA “Sven Longshanks,” was sentenced to two and a half years for, as his prosecutors phrased it, “stirring up racial hatred” on his podcast.
Last November, a British nationalist named James Costello was handed a five-year sentence for publishing a website “alleged to contain racist themes pertaining to his religion, Creativity.”
Sam Melia isn’t even the first person in England to be jailed for disseminating “racist” stickers. In 2016, four members of the now-banned group National Action received sentences ranging from 12 to 21 months in connection with posting stickers on a campus in Birmingham with messages such as “WHITE ZONE” and “BRITAIN IS OURS THE REST MUST GO.” Speaking for the Crown Prosecution Service, Sue Hemming said:
These men were committed members of National Action who went to Aston University with the intention of stirring up racial hatred. . . . Their hope was to inspire others to stoke racial tensions but their criminal attempt to incite others to despise, reject, and expel non-whites failed. . . .
Wow, they wanted to stir up racial hatred and stoke racial tensions. I’m surprised they weren’t shot live on television by Her Majesty’s Royal Firing Squad.
It only seems as if white people are going to jail in England for stirring up racial hatred. Anti-Jewish invective from Muslims is widely tolerated because, well, most Muslims aren’t white, and for the time being, England’s white people are the ones blocking racial progress.
Many were quick to point out how many non-white sex criminals got sentenced to less time than Sam Melia got and the fact that you won’t be criminally charged for posting #KillAllWhiteMen so long as you’re a non-white woman.
At Melia’s sentencing, Judge Tom Bayliss said:
The publication of this kind of material is corrosive to our society. . . . For the first time since the 1930s, a real risk of gross, potentially violent, antisemitism is becoming normalized on our streets . . . It has been used before to tear at the heart of Western democracy. It must not be allowed to do so again. . . . I am quite sure that your mindset is that of a racist and a white supremacist. You hold Nazi sympathies and you are an anti-Semite. . . .
Prosecutors made a point of reminding jurors that when police first raided Melia’s home in April 2021, they found a Hitler poster on a wall in his garage and a book by Oswald Mosley in his bedroom. These two artifacts were presented as “key signs of Melia’s ideology.”
If you asked Sam Melia or Laura Towler what motivates them, they’d both probably say, in unison and without blinking, that it’s love for their own people. But they live, and are currently suffering, under a regime that automatically reframes self-interest among whites as hatred for others, so their meek claims of self-love will be dismissed as lies and denial.
And that’s why the legal question of intent — especially in cases where even the prosecution agrees that no crimes were committed and no one was hurt — is such a sticky matter. Over the years I’ve found myself entangled in two separate legal cases, one involving obscenity and the other involving assault, where prosecutors used my writing against me as “proof” of malice aforethought. And in both cases, the prosecutors couldn’t have been more wrong about the reasons I’d written what I wrote. It’s quite a little existential nightmare to have the full power of the state, which can lock you in a cage and keep you there, telling you what you actually meant because it suits their own twisted needs to hate and punish.
What’s so bad about racial hatred, anyway? Off the top of my head, I can think of at least ten things that are worse. Hypocrisy, gaslighting, and sadism cloaked as “justice” are three of them. At least racial hatred is honest.

Great article, Jim.
However, I can’t find evidence of the Orwellian quote in the article you linked or elsewhere online. Do you have the source?
“The sentence would have been much longer had you actually committed a crime.”
I know you have the quote, but the BBC article you linked doesn’t have it. Nor does any other news source I can find. I’ve only seen it making the rounds on Twitter.
Parts of the quote are in the BBC article, but not this part.
Well, this guy linked to the BBC article and then wrote this in the same tweet: “Judge Tom Bayliss KC said: ‘The sentence would have been much longer had you actually committed a crime’
A couple tweets later, he writes: “And I think I need to point out that the Judge didn’t use the words I attributed. That bit about not committing a crime was satire.”
Article has been amended. I should have double-checked, but this might be the first time I’ve ever seen a “satirical misattribution” like that.
Yeah, I don’t know why he added this. What the judge actually said was bad enough on its own.
Thanks, Jim.
The System just set a precedent. When the shoe is on the other foot, I hope the crooked judges won’t mind too much if they get locked up without any real charges.
I like how the judge used all the boilerplate words that he could. I wonder if there will ever be a case where a judge throws down a similar sentence and labels an offender “anti-white.” Highly doubt that in the UK. In another ten years women will be charged for racism for not wanting to be raped by migrants.
Maybe they will start importing Haitians.
Britain is the least-free country in the world.
“Britain is the least-free country in the world.” Because the British don’t care about their freedom. If the British had the Right Stuff (which they don’t) 500,000, 1,000,000 etc. Brits would, after Sam Melia’s sentencing, not only put stickers but spray paint – Britain Is The Homeland Of The British People. There must be at least 50,000,000 British People in Britain. Basically, this would end the current corrupt government & the British People would begin to reclaim the Nation. Not even the military can handle hundreds of thousands or a million angry people. Oh well! We deserve what we tolerate.
I sometimes think up pretty decent analogies that describe things like this.
it occurred to me as I was reading the article that my childhood, as the older brother of a shitty, bratty, sibling sister, was a lot like what being a white man has become today.
My little sister could hit me with all manner of toys or implements. She could chase me around the house with a kitchen knife. She could call me every name in the book. She could humiliate and make fun of me in front of my friends…
But what was the one thing an older brother is taught that he’s never to do to a little sister? He’s never allowed to lay a hand on her. Ever.
Now I’m glad that this is how I was raised. For ME, it built character. But my little sister only got more bratty and more shitty as time went by. She didn’t learn any lessons. She only learned that she could practically get away with murder. She learned that there were no consequences for her bad behavior, because if she got any kind of reaction out of me, she had won.
So this is what white men face. We have to just take it and take it. We have to take the abuse and hold our tongue, lest the entire legal system come down on us. We aren’t allowed to speak up for ourselves or defend ourselves. Everyone else is the bratty baby sister who gets away with every trespass.
I have the same sister. And I’m a sister, too. Dad just liked her better. Now she’s 63, still pretty on the outside, and all alone. Her reputation proceeds her.
And you made a great analogy, by the way. Hopefully the end of both stories will be the same: all the brats will end up alone.
Don’t worry whites can escape into sports or pop culture. Wait, we can’t do that anymore either.
So True
No surprise that Tom Bayliss is a KC (King’s Counsel). That means he’s a member of the Inner Party. Orwell’s prediction is coming true – Britain is evolving into a communist dystopia.
The British establishment is disloyal to Britain, just as much as were Philby, Burgess & Maclean. This so-called “judge” is unamenable to reason. He is capable only of half-baked political arguments and defective historical analogies. The above quote from his summation demonstrates his purely political approach to this case. An honest, unbiased judge would have dismissed all charges before the trial even began. This one is not a real “judge” – he is a political commissar.
Here’s a refreshingly reasoned and non-hysterical evenhanded not to mention extremely well-written in its well-writteness article on the abhorrent and horrible bad thing Eric Clapton once said about w*gs and c**ns at a show that, aside from being a deeply ugly and violently insulting thing to say, one steeped in fury and ignorance -no! really! steeped in BOTH things!- and incendiary rhetoric of division and divisionality and rock stars like Clapton using their privileged positions to heap further misery on the oppressed (that’s what Layla was really about) in a flagrantly fascist stance in its flagrant fascism and its deeply flagrant flagrancy… no, wait, violently fascist fascism that’s both ugly and violently ugly! And fascistical. Oh, and incendiary. Deeply.
Ouch!
How bad could his comments really have been? “Well, pretty damn, terrible.”
And, if you ask me, that’s pretty damn, awful.
He probably had to buy a new thesaurus after all that. Read at your own risk. Article contains bizarre punctuation and w*gphobic commentary.
https://faroutmagazine.co.uk/eric-clapton-racist-outburst-details/
You know, as fun as it is for us, what was Clapton thinking railing against “coons” onstage?
Back when he said it, it was a completely different world. Things got remarkably worse since then.
If he said that these days, he’d get worse publicity than Jeffrey Dahmer. He’d probably try to salvage his career by undergoing a struggle session that left him a cringing wreck, as well as cutting a seven-figure check to some shitty anti-White foundation. Despite all the self-abasement, he’d never be allowed to sell another album or take the stage again. He might even get a visit by the political police.
Beau, I actually saw Cream. In Philly. Maybe that’s where his aversion to c**ns started?
Oh… dear…
It’s really amazing how those types can work themselves up into such a lather.
And hilarious.
In some ways the British public has it worse than what the Haitians are going through.
Interesting stickers and article,
“Prosecutors made a point of reminding jurors that when police first raided Melia’s home in April 2021, they found a Hitler poster on a wall in his garage and a book by Oswald Mosley in his bedroom. These two artifacts were presented as “key signs of Melia’s ideology.”
Ignorance is 1 thing, and Fascism and Nazism are 2 different things. The doctrine of Mussolini’s social political system was the inspiration of Mosley, Dollfuss, Franco, FDR, and the admiration of many other great men to include Gandhi.
As for Nazis, in the middle east (as anywhere else) they can be identified by their actions.
In regards to “terrorism”,
“And you dare to call me a terrorist… as you look down your gun.., when I think of all tha things that you huv done”. (An Irish song lyric).
“I have learned through time that “threats” are usually reactions aimed at those who initiate and perpetuate them.” – (Guzziferno)
The problem in the first place is that they’re putting his opinions on trial. It’s like this. If I’m accused of robbing a bank, whether my bedroom walls are lined with cute kitten pictures or if I’ve made it a shrine to Charles Manson has nothing to do with my guilt or innocence.
I understood that, and agree that the courts have become too intrusive in their dealing of justice. A person has a right to his thoughts and opinions and violations of law require physical acts. As for thoughts, if they could read minds we would all be incarcerated considering the level of uncontrolled thoughts entering the mind. I spun off when I focused on the similar accusation of guilt for owning a book of Mosley, which they also incorrectly associate with Nazism, and worse, incorrectly use it as a tool for deciding intent.
The other problem is that the stickers displayed represent a factual political injustice and not racism at all, if I dare say so.
The irony is that, if you do openly say hateful ‘racist‘ things about non-whites in modern Britain, then, whatever your supposed intention, in practice you’re more likely to incite or ‘stir up‘ hatred against yourself as a loathsome ‘racist‘ than you are to stir up hatred against the ethnic group you’re ostensibly attacking.
There it is in a nutshell.
Sam Melia, whom I’ve had the pleasure of meeting, is a good man. His prosecution and incarceration are a national disgrace.
The British establishment exemplifies anarcho-tyranny. Unable to keep order on the streets of its capital city or repress rampant crime, it is well able to persecute and imprison its critics. Its luminaries need not expect any kinder treatment when they eventually fall from power and find themselves at the mercy of those whom they presently oppress.
A silver lining to this abominable proceeding is that the system has allowed the mask to slip and cannot pretend seriously to believe in free speech after this grotesque travesty of justice.
There is also a lesson here for our people. It really is not apparent what purpose there is in plastering stickers with dissident messages on lamp-posts. No discernible benefit comes from it. Once upon a time when there was no internet and no alternative media, perhaps stickers promoting a political party and its views had a purpose, but now?
What’s more (or less) the Hundred-handers’ stickers did not promote any party, organisation or other alternative structure, but amounted to a primal scream of pain and anger against how things are. Things are not as they ought to be, but more sophisticated tactics are needed to change them.
That’s right. Don’t argue with Eloi. They have a death-wish. They want to be eaten by the Morlocks. Laugh at them, instead.
Sam Melia did nothing wrong, and certainly nothing criminal. His only “crime” was his race. This White man gets locked up for two years, while non-Whites go free despite their real crimes.
That’s amazing. The tales of occupied Britain I read as a boy in the pages of Boys Own or was it the Rover and Adventure, have come true. Biggles will be rolling in his grave
It really was odd when Chad O’Melia was denied justice after his girlfriend, Bryn Spejcher, received only 2 years probation and 100 hours of community service for stabbing him 108 times, and then, only a couple days later and across the pond, the Sam Melia verdict also made him a victim of the injustice system.
Fellow white men: we are Melia!
This case is nothing less than the destruction of the rule of law. Why? Because it removes predictability. Also, a point of comparison bringing into relief the moral relativism being practised by the courts:
http://northwestnationalists.blogspot.com/2024/03/blog-post.html
Is the Melia scenario much distant from the “Nazi era” approach as relayed in a 1970s UK legal theory textbook:
“Traditional criminal law defines a burglar both by his acts and by the intent. The phenomenonological school defines him by personality. A burglar is one who is a burglar ‘in essence’ (wer seinem Wesen nach ein Diebist). The judge must decide by intuition whether to convict or not. …”
“Protocol No. 19
In order to destroy the prestige of heroism for political crime we shall send it for trial in the category of thieving, murder, and every kind of abominable and filthy crime. Public opinion will then confuse in its conception this category of crime with the disgrace attaching to every other and will brand it with the same contempt.”
Well said, and the perfect truth. We use distortion and distorted definitions of our vocabulary to manipulate collaboration or collective endorsement, or in this case judicial and social legitimation.
Bill Stickers will be prosecuted.
Bill stickers is innocent!
The Rico Law was devised to prosecute people simply by their most minimal association with the accused ( a photograph together in a ball park, ice cream parlor, etc.)
