Aaron Bushnell (USAF Recruiting Quincy MA)
1,440 words
Aaron Bushnell was a 25-year-old United States Air Force airman who allegedly graduated at the top of his class in basic training. He was planning on transitioning into civilian life as a software engineer and seems to have been a hypercompetent individual. He was also obviously intelligent, and intelligence often goes along with altruism. He could no longer bear the knowledge that the US is helping Israel to kill innocent Palestinian civilians in Gaza and decided to perform the ultimate act of protest outside the Israeli embassy in Washington, DC by taking his own life via self-immolation.
Many of us feel helpless to stop Israel’s mass murder of Palestinians. Ethnocentric Jews control the narrative in most legacy media outlets. Bushnell found a way around this by livestreaming his self-immolation for the world to see.
Much of the greater support for Palestine among the younger generations comes from the fact that there are more non-whites in younger age groups than in the boomer age cohort. These non-whites physically resemble Palestinians more than the third or so of Israelis who are comparatively light-skinned Ashkenazim, so it’s natural for them to side with the Palestinians.
Some of the increased support for Palestine comes from young white people. Part of the reason for this is that colleges tend to be pro-Palestine, and more white zoomers attend college than white boomers did, but another is they can access the Internet and find out the truth and thus bypass the whitewashing and censoring of Israel’s war crimes by Jews in the legacy media.
The Israel-Palestine war is one of the most horrendous conflicts in terms of civilian casualties in the twenty-first century. While George W. Bush and Vladimir Putin also started wars unjustifiably, they killed far fewer women and children per capita than Israeli is killing in Gaza. This is not to excuse Bush or Putin, but to show just how much worse Benjamin Netanyahu is in terms of killing innocent people. Not since Hiroshima, Nagasaki, and Dresden have there been such civilian casualties. Most young people seem to be affected by this realization while most old people seem numb toward it, although the more intelligent older whites, be they on the Left or the Right, seem to have more sympathy on average for the Palestinians.
Jews are now using the holocaust as a red herring to distract us from their killing of thousands of Palestinian women and children in Gaza. Using mass murder in an attempt to excuse another case of mass murder is quite a feat of mental gymnastics, requiring high verbal IQ and even more chutzpah. The lack of a conscience that ethnocentric Jews display as they giddily work their iniquity in manipulating the stupid goyim is disturbing.
Over the past century, ethnocentric Jews have called attention to the evils of mass murder, slavery, and apartheid only to immediately do an about-face when they perceive such things as benefitting Jews. The most ethnocentric ones corral most of the rest, though many young Jews, being more likely to have a white gentile parent and greater access to the truth online, aren’t cooperating with them. Nobody’ ethnocentrism should ever entail endorsing the mass killing of civilians. The fact that white Americans allow Jews to take their tax dollars in order to kill innocent Palestinians in a war of conquest to benefit Jews is the result of extreme moral confusion on the part of whites, where cowardice, cold-heartedness, and generosity are wrapped up together in an ugly form. Bushnell may have died for non-whites, but at least he wasn’t cowardly or cold-hearted.
White people are the most humanitarian race. We were the first to abolish slavery, and white nations have the lowest Gini coefficients, meaning there is more economic equality in them than in non-white nations. It’s thus hard for whites to suspend their humanitarian feelings when self-serving Jews demand that they do so.
Whites have helped other races more than vice versa. White advancements in medical care have reduced childhood mortality among non-whites and permitted the latter to multiply rapidly, outbreeding whites by a factor of four over the past century. While most Asians have reached birth-control mediated replacement-level fertility, Africans continue to multiply, and overall with each generation whites become a smaller proportion of the world’s population. Whites are dying out and bestowing their amazing modern advancements and lifestyles upon brown people who could never create either. Bushnell is therefore a microcosm of whites. He tragically sacrificed himself for the “other.”

Bushnell’s death is something we should mourn rather than mock. We may disagree with self-immolation as a means of protest, or with whites sacrificing themselves for Palestinians, but no one can doubt Bushnell’s sincerity, extreme altruism (intelligence), and courage. We cannot deny that he had many good character traits. Bushnell rejected the hegemony of Jewish ethnocentrism to some extent because he believed Jews don’t have the right to get away with murder. For that, he deserves respect.
It bothers me when the mainstream media omits the reasons why he committed the act in its coverage. Telling half-truths is a favorite activity of psychopaths, and many such people seem to be attempting to conceal Bushnell’s motives. Still others seek to call his sanity into question. Jews didn’t do this in response to those Vietnamese and Americans who self-immolated to protest the Vietnam War. They only do it to people who are protesting injustices committed by Jews. The mask of Jewish ethnocentrism is slipping, and their cold-heartedness belies their humanitarian posturing.
It doesn’t seem as if ethnocentric Jews delight in murder so much as they delight in controlling people’s minds to the point that they can get away with it. Bushnell sacrificed his life due to his conviction that “our elites,” whomever he thought they may be, don’t deserve to get away with murder.
My intent in this piece is not to exploit Bushnell’s death to promote my own beliefs. I have not given my life for a cause, and I neither want nor need to hijack his sacrifice to spread my own views. Instead, I want to convince pro-white readers not to mock him. We should credit him for his good attributes, express disagreement where relevant, and offer condolences to him and the families of the tens of thousands of innocent Palestinian civilians in Gaza for whom he sacrificed his life.
Moreover, we shouldn’t envy people who commit extreme acts of protest for causes other than explicitly pro-white ones. People care about many things, and this concern is not always antithetical to achieving the hegemony of white ethnocentrism over political discourse. Perhaps if Bushnell had mentioned that he was sacrificing himself in an attempt to spare white Americans from dying for Israel, it would have been more pleasing to white advocates, because otherwise, on the surface at least, it looks like a white guy dying for brown people. Regardless, the practical effect of his action may not only save the lives of Palestinians, but those of white soldiers who might be sent to die for Israel. Also, once Jewish hegemony fades browns won’t be able to attempt to make whites feel guilty for supporting the mass slaughter of Palestinians in the same way that Jews now extract guilt from whites over the holocaust.
Many are sad about Bushnell’s sacrifice, and some feel angry. They hate the fact that the whitewashing media coverage in the Jewish-owned media has resulted in the death of an altruistic white guy who was in many ways is a microcosm of the most altruistic race. Rich ethnocentric Jews are in fact the ones who best exemplify the “elites” Bushnell identified in his video. If not for their influence, Aaron might still be with us. Few trace the toxic influence of ethnocentric Jews to their wealth, but that’s where most of it comes from. If they weren’t so rich, they couldn’t influence US foreign policy to the degree that they do.
It’s imperative that we not act on our frustrations with Israel’s getting away with mass murder in a way that harms ourselves or others, as Bushnell did. Instead, we must diligently warn the public of the pernicious influence of ethnocentric Jews over the media and foreign policy. The TV-benumbed boomers soon pass away, and America’s unconditional support for Israel will fade as younger people vote out those corrupt, treasonous politicians who are complicit in Jewish control over US foreign policy. Thus, in our efforts to hasten the end of Jewish tyranny we shouldn’t resort to Bushnell’s tactics, but we shouldn’t mock him, either. A combination of respect, disagreement, and mournful sadness seems most warranted.

Anti-white communist Aaron Bushnell was a sworn enemy of White Nationalists and white identity, and he died a detestable fool. Why didn’t the article’s author share with readers the fact that Bushnell recently wrote that he would welcome his [Bushnell’s] own family being murdered by brown people as revenge for colonialism? As Bushnell’s writings indicate, he was a nasty, angry, high strung person who had no problem excusing violent acts being committed against innocent white people. But apparently we’re supposed to believe that Bushnell was primarily driven by “altruism”?
Antifa Aaron Bushnell would have celebrated the demise of any white advocate and even Trump supporters whom he deemed complicit in “white supremacy” and brown genocide. Oh, but let us mourn this terrible loss.
I notice that this article is using a more flattering, smiley picture of the little rat traitor Bushnell instead of the more familiar closeup image of Bushnell’s ugly mole face that accompanied Morris van de camp’s fawning piece. Is this supposed to make us warm up to Bushnell? It doesn’t work on me. I will NOT take a knee for Bushnell.
Having said that, I wish to say that I appreciate and respect the articles’ authors, and I thank them for sharing their thoughts.
The world is a better place without people that advocate for my genocide.
This is just another “TV-benumbed Boomer” Hate-piece. So our cohort is “less intelligent” than the kids today, are we?
The best way to have stopped Hiroshima and Nagasaki, or the more-deadly firebombing raids, would have been to not have attacked Pearl Harbor in the first place, nor to have raped Nanking. In any case, these were not our generation’s battles, so let’s not go there.
Why is it that so many of our guys think that the Boomers were ever the one-percent who had any of the actual power? You can’t have it both ways.
Furthermore, Boomers consumed way less Jewish mass-media than you did, and I’ll bet many of them have far more prior military service experience than your typical Zoomer or Millennial, who would expect a trophy for meeting the weight requirements to pass Basic Training.
I am sorry that Mr. Bushnell ─ Antifa priors and all ─ sacrificed himself in such a horrible way to own the you-know-whos. No, to own Whitey since Israel is supposed to be our greatest ally. He undoubtedly had no clue what any of this was about. His act is just not anything for White people to be proud of. In war, the Truth dies first and it always takes two to tango.
When some guy burned himself to death outside McNamara’s office window in 1965, with his infant daughter in tow, Dr. Strangebob was unfathomably sad about what had happened ─ but that did not fundamentally change anything.
Fighting a proxy-war instead of World War III was far more problematical than what ever could have been imagined ─ but Kennedy and Johnson did not start fighting the Viet Cong one day because they were bored with Lucy reruns and wanted to goose their stock dividends (Noam Chomsky notwithstanding).
Zoomers are the ones who see everything as though it were a morality play, or in reality, just the insight of a varsity football game. And I am not seeing how that is helpful.
The real enemy is here at home, where the Diaspora effectively leads us around by the nose, and ultimately spins the propaganda as they wish, certainly not in our favor.
Way too much importance is being given here on body-counts and the expected horrific outcomes of war than the actual loathesome foreign entanglements themselves, let alone what power dynamics are actually behind our bondage.
It is good that people are asking questions, but for how long will they? Perhaps I am lacking the necessary fantasm, but I don’t see how this sordid act helps to remove the yoke from our necks.
🙂
Yeah, kind of odd to drag “TV-benumbed boomers”—and, of course, their IMMINENT EXTINCTION—into an article about a meme-tarded 26-year-old masochist who elbowed all the boomers out of the way and killed himself. Oy, the irony! As much of a brain-killer as TV was, one might even get the impression that the digitally raised are entirely incapable of thinking outside of memes.
