Since growing up cocooned in economic wealth is far likelier to shield a person from life’s harsher realities than merely growing up white, writer Nellie Bowles is spoiled to the point where she stinks. She’s descended from Henry Miller, but not the softcore porno novelist — the Evil White Male who helped bankroll Bowles’ charmed and risk-free life was the “Cattle King of California” who “was at one point one of the largest landowners in the United States.” Bowles inherited everything except a pretty face. It takes a rare sort of cluelessly rich cunt to brag about being awarded a Fulbright Fellowship to Swaziland, and you have to be sheltered to a nearly psychedelic degree to think Jordan Peterson is some sort of scary misogynist.

But at some point Bowles apparently decided she wasn’t sufficiently annoying by dint of being a trust-fund shiksa who barks endlessly about white patriarchal privilege, so she converted to Judaism to appease her lesbian wife Bari Weiss, whose name is German for “Barry White.” Weiss, a former writer for the Wall Street Journal and New York Times, is the author of a 2019 book called How to Fight Anti-Semitism, which I imagine is as exhausting to read as it is to constantly pretend you have to fight anti-Semitism. As Glenn Greenwald has documented, despite Weiss’ public posturing as an anti-“woke” free-speech warrior, she has left a long slime trail of trying to silence anti-Zionist Arab scholars.
Bowles and Weiss were able to produce a daughter together in 2022, but don’t ask me how the pair of lesbo power-yentas was able to magically pull that little rabbit out of a hat without the assistance of some Evil White Male sperm.
On Tuesday, The Atlantic published an article by Bowles called “Are White Women Better Now?” Not only does the meandering screed never get around to answering the question, I’m not even sure what question it’s posing: Are white women better now than when? And “better” in what sense?
The article contains so many passages that make me want to grind my teeth until my gums bleed, but I’ll mercifully only roll out a few:
There I was, one of about 30 people attending a four-day-long Zoom seminar called “The Toxic Trends of Whiteness,” hosted by the group Education for Racial Equity.
Sounds like a blast.
The course began with easy questions (names, what we do, what we love), and an icebreaker: What are you struggling with or grappling with related to your whiteness? We were told that our answers should be “as close to the bone as possible, as naked, as emotionally revealing.” We needed to feel uncomfortable.
I’m starting to feel uncomfortable, too.
People said they felt exhausted by constantly trying to fight their white supremacy. A woman with a biracial child said she was scared that her whiteness could harm her child. Some expressed frustration. It was hard, one participant said, that after fighting the patriarchy for so long, white women were now “sort of being told to step aside.” She wanted to know how to do that without feeling resentment. . . .
A woman from San Francisco had started crying before she even began speaking. “I’m here because I’m a racist. I’m here because my body has a trauma response to my own whiteness and other people’s whiteness.” A woman who loved her cats was struggling with “how to understand all the atrocities of being a white body.” Knowing that her very existence perpetuated whiteness made her feel like a drag on society. “The darkest place I go is thinking it would be better if I weren’t here. It would at least be one less person perpetuating these things.”
Stop it. I’m starting to get horny.
And then, just when you think the article can’t epitomize white-female virtue-signaling self-flagellation any better, Bowles trots out the intensely brittle and easily shattered Robin DiAngelo of White Fragility infamy as her surprise ringer:
The seminar would culminate with a talk from Robin DiAngelo, the most prominent anti-racist educator working in America. . . . Seminars like hers exploded as anti-racism was shifted from a project of changing laws and fighting systems into a more psychological movement: something you did within yourself. It was therapeutic. It wasn’t about elevating others so much as about deconstructing yourself in hopes of eventually deconstructing the systems around you. . . . She introduced some challenges. First was white people’s “lack of humility”: “If you are white and you have not devoted years, years — not that you read some books last summer — to sustained study, struggle, and work and practice and mistake making and relationship building, your opinions while you have them are necessarily uninformed and superficial.”
It’s rich to behold rich white women such as Bowles and DiAngelo proudly bludgeoning themselves in narcissistic, navel-gazing public struggle sessions about “humility” over their “unearned privilege,” when in reality they’re both wallowing in ritualistic public struggle sessions about unearned guilt. Notice how they never apologize for being women, or rich, or especially for being Jewish, whether by blood or by conversion — only for being white.
You can buy Jim Goad’s ANSWER Me! here.
It leads me to wonder whether one day, this small cadre of wealthy, mentally disturbed ethnomasochists will realize that despite all of their empty gesturing, it won’t ever absolve them of the Great White Stain. Will they be forced to learn the hard way that not only is “whiteness” the original sin, it’s also the unforgivable sin? Although European ancestry is a verifiable biological reality, “whiteness” as people such as DiAngelo frame it is purely a social construct, but one constructed as a death sentence. Trying to apologize your way out of whiteness is like trying to apologize your way out of AIDS.
Is it possible that the only way for modern white women to redeem themselves is not through renouncing their whiteness, but by cuddling up to it and giving it a big, sloppy kiss?
Lest anyone accuse me of trying to make excuses for white women, I feel compelled to declare as indisputable fact that no one reading this has been more physically or verbally abusive to white women than me. Just as I’ve come to believe that “anti-Semitism” is mostly caused by Semites, I also think that women are the culprits behind nearly all “misogyny.” They are a breed largely without honor. There are exceptions, but on the whole they are weak and cowardly and traitorous and infantile. Often they don’t even practice good personal hygiene.
So I understand there’s a lot of entirely justified bitterness out there toward white women. For far too long, many white women have leveraged their status as a protected gender as a Pussy Pass to pile on white men.
If white women insist on these creepy performative acts of self-immolation, there are countless good reasons they can hate themselves. Hate themselves for being women. Hate themselves for being all too human. And if they want to hate themselves for being the undeserving recipients of predatory capitalistic intergenerational wealth, I’ll let them know where they can send me the reparations check.
But if you truly believe that white people have been marked for extinction, you’ll have to concede that until cyberneticists develop some 3D-printer version of a white womb, we’ll at least need to humor white gals and charm them into breeding with us if we hope to stave off our demographic death spiral.
White women, I hereby grant you my permission to hate yourselves for everything except being white.

There has been some talk recently about the political differences between young men and women, and the idea that Liberalism itself is feminine while Conservativism is masculine. I don’t believe it, but over the years I’ve noticed that women — and liberals in general seem to have a sadomasochistic streak. With anti-White liberals that streak is much bigger, and in liberal women it’s pretty much all there is.
The entire scam of learning how to not be be racist is made up of all women, so it is basically some weird ass catfight.
It’s like bizarro-world Tony Robbins… Tony Robin[s] DiAngelo.
The shittier you feel about yourself, the happier you’ll be!!!
A good addition to the 1984 creed: “Misery is joy.”
In the early 90s I started writing a book based upon my theory that conservatism is male and liberalism is female. The former has built everything of value around us while the latter seeks to steal/wrangle/assume the wealth created by the former.
The only jobs that white women are good at are school teacher (not principal), nurse, bank teller, pole-dancer.
About the only thing worse than the proverbial loud-mouth jew is a loud-mouth jewess.
Every time I think we might be reaching peak ethnomasochism, those bozos hit a new low. Time for a new public service announcement.
This is your brain.
*Crack* *Sizzle*
This is your brain on cultural Marxism.
Any questions?
I don’t believe that all white women are like this. In fact, I don’t believe that even as much as a quarter of white women are like this.
The trouble is, though, for the 5, 10, 15 or whatever percentage of white women that are like what Mr. Goad is (accurately) describing, they wield far more influence over other women — and men, too — than is even remotely sane.
I see these DiAngelo priestesses and their hormonally-challenged acolytes as being like psychological vampires. Or maybe as die hard members of an intensely dangerous and self-destructive cult — what with their play-acted psychodramas and weird in-group jargon and so on.
(Seriously, where did all this rhetorical crap about “bodies” even come from? “Black bodies” this… “White bodies” that… Why do they all talk this way?)
Worst of all, instead of being burned, drowned, or banished to the wilderness as nature intended, these shrews set the tone for waaaaaay too much of our social norms and discourse. Hell, they write NYT best-sellers about it.
Maybe some of it is grifting — cough, Robin DiAngelo, cough — but for far too many others, it’s very heartfelt and very real. And while those others may not be writing NYT best-sellers, they are the ones running your HR department.
Who said all white women are like this?
Who said all white women are like this?
You did, Jim. A picture is worth a thousand words, and there is literally a picture of a White woman with Devil’s horns at the top of this article about “white female virtue-signalling self-flagellation.”
Since you don’t care about the feelings and concerns of people who aren’t rxactly like you, it may not be immediately apparent to you that Jordan Peterson is a misogynist. As I mentioned in another thread, I recently watched my first and last Jordan Peterson video. He said that children need their moms more when they are little, but then we need to “back the fuck off” so they can learn to fail or something. In other words, thanks for putting up with nine months of pregnancy, childbirth, and all those dirty diapers. We’ll take it from here. You’re a bad influence, and all the problems with “these kids today” are your fault!
Curiously enough, he didn’t then suggest that since he believes men are better at raising children approaching double digits, they should quit their demanding jobs or even cut back on their hours so they can spend time with their children who need them oh so much during this time. After all, it’s only fair that women should have a chance to focus on their own careers for a change. You can ask your wife for walking around money. But of course not! The glory work, and the money and power that goes with that, is for men, always and everywhere. We don’t even get Kinder, Kirche, Kuche. We just get Toddlers, Church, and Kitchen. And for the anti-Christians, well I suppose that would just be… Toddlers and Kitchen.
Anyway, JP probably doesn’t think he’s a misogynist, but that’s only because he is too stupid to recognize his own self-serving contradictions or think through all the implications of the idiotic things that come out of his mouth. I’ll give him this. He did actually articulate a criticism of women that was at least intelligible and specific enough to dispute. That’s more than I can say for you:
Lest anyone accuse me of trying to make excuses for white women, I feel compelled to declare as indisputable fact that no one reading this has been more physically or verbally abusive to white women than me. Just as I’ve come to believe that “anti-Semitism” is mostly caused by Semites, I also think that women are the culprits behind nearly all “misogyny.” They are a breed largely without honor. There are exceptions, but on the whole they are weak and cowardly and traitorous and infantile. Often they don’t even practice good personal hygiene.
So, Jim, did you ever stop beating your wife? Also, thanks for admitting that you’re scared of being called names (simp, cuck, white knight). It was obvious enough to me, but it’s always good to have it right from the horse’s mouth. Speaking of people who are “weak and cowardly and traitorous and infantile,” how about all those White male cops who turned on Irish natives protesting their own dispossession? Do their actions tell us anything about “male nature” such that we should conclude that men are untrustworthy?
The governing principle seems to be this: When women do despicable things, they do them because they are women. When men do despicable things, they do them despite the fact that they are men. When men do noble things, they do them because they are men. When women do noble things, they do them despite the fact that they are women. WTF is that if not misogyny?Notice this approach dispenses with any need to demonstrate that female behavior is objectively any worse than male behavior, so you can go on blaming women for everything even though men did slavery, world wars, forever wars, colonialism, offshoring, and immigration (the 89th Congress that passed the HCA was 98% male).
And to anyone who is tempted to tell me to go FO and try to convert feminists to WN, please understand that you don’t generally invite people over when your house is a mess. You clean it up first. Is that clear or do men not understand housekeeping metaphors?
You did, Jim. A picture is worth a thousand words, and there is literally a picture of a White woman with Devil’s horns at the top of this article about “white female virtue-signalling self-flagellation.”
There is literally one digital illustration of one imaginary white woman. Drawing false inferences, taking it personally, and acting like a humorless, hyper-emotional scold are all your doing.
A perfect rejoinder Mr. Goad!
Who said all white women are like this?
Me, but I was slightly exaggerating. There are maaayyyybe 5% who have no trace of white guilt at age, say, 18 (I was born mid seventies). Actually, that number is too high. I can think of 1 -ONE- girl from my entire high school experience who was of completely sound mind racially, and she was the subject of a bonafide hate campaign complete with flyers.
Today all my friends with daughters report that they pine for Leroy by age 13. My observation is that the dads who fear directly confronting the issue have much less success than the ones who pull no punches.
If white women should hate themselves, white men should hate themselves more. If not, then who’s responsible?
@Lexi. As usual you make some good points. I don’t know what the solution is, though.
@Jim Goad.
I also think that women are the culprits behind nearly all “misogyny.” They are a breed largely without honor. There are exceptions, but on the whole they are weak and cowardly and traitorous and infantile.
Jimmy, that is truly unseemly of you and I hope you will retract your shocking statement. Why would only women (for the most part) be cursed with such terrible characteristics? It doesn’t make sense. “Bad seeds” are probably equally distributed between male & female. In a sane society, negative qualities would recede in both sexes.
Let’s have some estimates here – what percentage of women do you think are weak, cowardly, traitorous and infantile? 90%? More? Less?
Why would only women (for the most part) be cursed with such terrible characteristics?
Why do so many of you rely on straw-man arguments? Where did I say “only women”? It appears that being meticulously careful with my choice of words can’t stop people from freestylin’ with whatever I’ve said.
It’s also silly to request a mathematical estimate, but I believe that generally, society is far more sympathetic toward women than toward men. Just like blacks tend to leap on any general presumption of innocence that society grants them, so do many women. The result is that many of them hide behind the Innocence Shield to do their dirty work.
I’ve always been intensely consistent about the idea that human nature is largely rotten and that there are no good guys and bad guys, only lying assholes pointing fingers at one another. This includes men. My focus has always been on misplaced blame and scapegoating, and I believe a good case can be made that white men are first in line these days for this treatment.
A truly shocking thing to say! Sometimes I wonder why I visit this site lol. However, it has so much to offer in terms of intelligent discourse that I just can’t stay away. I even enjoy Mr. Goad’s articles, usually. I think that he suffers from more than a little misanthropy that comes from being wizened by life. Never mind eh, you can’t make everybody like you, and he does bring a lot of traffic to Counter Currents. As long as the movement overall is not anti-women, I am happy to be here.
Why do so many of you rely on straw-man arguments? Where did I say “only women”? It appears that being meticulously careful with my choice of words can’t stop people from freestylin’ with whatever I’ve said.
No, Jim, being “meticulously careful” with your words, such that you can maintain plausible but very technical denial, is not going to change the tone of your writing. People can and will read between the lines.
It’s also silly to request a mathematical estimate
I don’t know about that, but for my part, I don’t so much insist on estimates as clarity. When you verbally attack people, you owe it to them to do so in a way that allows them to admit the charge or deny it and defend themselves. WTH did you mean when you said women are “a breed largely without honor.”
David Zsutty once sneered at women for our complaints about the “male ego.” The context was a discussion about a place in history for White men who step up to save their race. His comment made clear that he understands nothing of the nature of our claim, which is that men have a tendency to be petty in very destructive ways. Merlin gave King Arthur a Round Table as a wedding gift, so there was no seat of honor at the “foot” to fight over, but then they still fought over the seats closest to the King. Or how about Robinhood’s fight with Little John over who would be the first to cross a narrow bridge? Someone got clubbed over the head and they both fell in the water if I’m not mistaken, during which proceedings both could have crossed the Bridge many times over. This was all in good fun, of course, and what men get up to when they’re horsing around is no concern of mine, but my impression is that sometimes the consequences of the male ego are more dire, as anyone involved in WN has probably seen first hand.
But maybe I am attacking a straw man. If the masculine conception of honor is not petty egoism, but something nobler, please explain. While you’re at it, you might specify what “dirty work” you think women are doing behind our “Innocence Shields.”
Now: a lesson in “meticulously choosing” your words. If you notice, I said men “have a tendency” to be petty, by which I acknowledge that they can and sometimes do overcome it, often with the help of the Christian religion you so disparage. My language here is a vote of confidence in men’s ability to reflect and improve, an essential human capacity that men on this site habitually imply is lacking in women.
My focus has always been on misplaced blame and scapegoating, and I believe a good case can be made that white men are first in line these days for this treatment.
The fact is that women seem to be more capable of conforming their behavior to the norms of peacetime society, and some men are driven to rage that people notice this fact. They have a sort of moral inferiority complex, which they attempt to overcome by telling Big Lies about it, to themselves as well as others. By means of the mendacious “female hypergamy” theory, men were able to turn reality on its head and blame women for both violence and antisocial promiscuity.
To be fair, I do think that TPTB unfairly demonize masculinity because they rightly see it as a threat to their power. Feminine virtue is passive/negative/yin. We are virtuous because of what we refrain from doing. Masculine virtue is active/positive/yang. Men are virtuous because of extraordinary acts of courage, determination, etc. While the female is more saintly, the male is more heroic, generally speaking.
We don’t live in a heroic age just now, though by itself that is not to be lamented, because adventure is the means, domesticity the end. The problem is that White male heroes are being “deconstructed,” and this, I imagine, is profoundly humiliating to men. Effectively, it erases the memory of the men who made all of this possible, thereby obscuring what is particularly great and worthy of celebration in men. If you take away the great and the good, all that is left is the bad and the ugly.
But that’s not our fault. Indeed, many White women are so disgusted by this phenomenon that they choose to teach their children at home with more traditional curricula. I don’t want to bring down the Eye of Sauron on good things, but alternative instructional materials that celebrate heroism can be found all over the internet, the vast majority of them created by women and sometimes offered for free.
The Establishment would very much like to see White men blame all of their problems, material and spiritual, on White women. Our survival depends on you resisting this temptation.
If you notice, I said men “have a tendency” to be petty
Either you didn’t notice, or you chose to ignore, these passages from my original article:
They are a breed largely without honor. There are exceptions…many white women have leveraged their status as a protected gender…
Despite all that, you came at me insisting I said ALL white women are like that…because of, well, the illustration of the horned lady.
The Establishment would very much like to see White men blame all of their problems, material and spiritual, on White women.
And yet again, I’ve criticized men who blame all of their problems on white women, or women in general, over a series of articles for a very long time now. So you’re either purposely ignoring all that or deliberately avoiding it.
@Jimmy.
Why do so many of you rely on straw-man arguments? Where did I say “only women”? It appears that being meticulously careful with my choice of words can’t stop people from freestylin’ with whatever I’ve said.
You are counter-currents’ flagship writer and yet you indulge in manipulative, pilpul-type responses to Lexi and me.
You were not “meticulously careful” with your choice of words: what other way is a person supposed to interpret the statement “I also think that women are the culprits behind nearly all ‘misogyny’. They are a breed largely without honor. There are exceptions, but on the whole they are weak and cowardly and traitorous and infantile.”
Never mind. It’s not nuclear war.
Continuing to avoid direct questions while accusing me of being “manipulative” and even Talmudic sounds a little…manipulative and Talmudic? I welcome you again to point to any passage where a reasonable person would infer that I was saying “only” women act that way. Lazily re-pasting a passage you’d already pasted where I criticize women does not serve as proof that I said “only” women can act despicably. I mean, do we need basic training in logical and illogical inferences? How else could one interpret those passages? Well, here’s one other way: “I wonder if this guy also blames men for most ‘misandry’?” Perish the thought of me ever writing articles slamming IncelsTM and douchebags, because that would never happen. It’s not as if my last book, Gender Psychosis, had separate sections devoted to mocking “Sad Cunts” and “Sad Men,” right? WRONG!!! WAH-WAH-WAH, BAD MISOGYNIST MAN IS ONLY MEAN TO WOMEN, AND HE’S LYING IF HE SAYS OTHERWISE!!!
Gentlemen, I think that sometimes it will always be difficult to fully express each other in short essays of written words alone, unlike some famous playwrights. Our shared opinions are often incomplete and quickly judged without ever looking into ones face at a table where one can fully appreciate the intent of another, and established it through greater query and discussion.
Jordan Peterson is a misogynist? LOL! That dood is as milquetoast as they get.
Guess Jim Goad’s piece triggered ya!
You entitled white chicks. ANY criticism of the massive damage you have done to the nations of the West = misogyny. Do you not realize that the Misogyny and Racism rap have been the cultural lingua franca of America for fifty years? It no longer guilts and silences us.
Yet it’s still your go-to, the moment you feel threatened by the simple truth that white women are the core constituency of the Prog Politburo. They are the manufactured consent for evil.
Great video. I love the blonde with the horns, although by the look of her I suspect she could be a handful for a host of reasons other than avowing White guilt. She could very well be as based as Lana Lokhteff or Eva Vlaardingerbroek.
I love White women, they’re fun to be around and thankfully are not yet subject to struggle sessions in my neighbourhood, but they are constituted to be very sensitive to the prevailing moral consensus and feel empowered by defending that consensus. This and the fact that their nurturing instincts are easily diverted away from their own group interests make them an object of some frustration to rightists since we really need them to be with us. I don’t think the section where Jim calls women weak, cowardly traitors who lack honour etcetera reflects women whom I know which is not to say that he hasn’t met many with these characteristics. It’s just not a helpful generalisation. Those are in any case masculine virtues, compared to feminine kindness, compassion and constancy. where it is absent is the biggest source of complaint from men. The indoctrination of Christian monogamy from infancy was probably the greatest boon to female constancy when it was the guiding ethos of our people.
I would say “not all woman”, but primarily present laws and political fashions which for selfish reasons favor and allow for some injustices to breed and be taken advantage of, by those opportunist within them who will. This has brought out the worst of many groups but can never really condemn each of them entirely / collectively.
You are a very wise woman. I wish that there were more like you in the White positive movement.
I myself started repeating misogynistic talking points when I was 16, without ever truly thinking them over. I was just angry over how I grew up, and worried that I was too ugly to get a girlfriend. I gave these talking points so little thought, that it was like how you yawn when others yawn, or how you fail to achieve when you listen to people who aren’t achievers. I was also afraid of being thought uncool by the White positive movement.
Lexi, don’t you know that Christianity has been the biggest enemy of women in history? It got rid of woman gods, said that women are dirty when they bleed, that they did the original sin and so on. Why believe in a religion that forces you to submit to a non-White male god? Have you listened to Adam Green?
Thanks for this meaningful comment.
Where I live, there are a few very talented right-wing women, one of whom has written a very interesting book on the jewish subversion, but they never get media coverage, as you’d expect.
https://www.theoccidentalobserver.net/2015/05/24/the-culture-of-critique-in-france-review-of-anne-klings-books-on-jewish-influence-in-france/
And they are persecuted.
On the other hand, any crazy, mentally-retarded or hysterical white or non white woman will get plenty of publicity.
An amazing discussion complaining that Goad overgeneralizes about women, then to have the ladies explain that men tend to be petty (an incredible conclusion if one reads modern media and who gets the most upset if one isn’t using the current newspeak). Is that mansplaining? Pardon, I forgot there isn’t really a female term equivalent. And I don’t want to be too harsh sounding, call me a ‘feminist’ in that I believe in equal opportunity for women… It’s just that the same gang of leftists demand that equal opportunity is supposed to guarantee equal outcomes 100.0 percent of the time or else there must be secret male cabal pulling the strings.
Not every woman indulges in the politics of white sacrifice to black angels. But it is no accident that Race2Dinner or “Are White Women Doing Better Now” are targeted at women. The leadership of NPR and SPLC are about 2/3 women. They all have a wild idea that immigrants arriving from south of the border or the middle east are coming from feminist cultures, or that they will somehow convert them by controlling the narrative.
White self-hatred is sick.
Women like this are broken. They also tend to be ugly (as seen in the links and beyond), and screaming “I hate myself more than you can ever possibly hate me” is the weirdest cope-flex ever. The goal is to get the pretty girls to join their club so that more men come under their rule.
What I’ve done with the young gals in my office who claim to be “bi” and have tried trotting out words like “misogyny” in front of me, is ignore what they say, then speak to them as if they are normal. I mention a cute boy and talk about men in a proper way, and they honestly seem thrilled and flattered. I was not popular as a kid. I recognize what I see when this happens. Part of this whole deal is just what club these chicks they think they belong to.
And by the way, by “ugly”, I mean their hate shows on their face. Nellie’s face is literally twisted into a knot from the unending fret of self hate and hate of anyone she considers better than her. It is literally WHY she is a lesbian. If she had ever tried smiling, put on a cute dress, etc. she would be unrecognizable from those pictures. She still wouldn’t be a supermodel, but she wouldn’t look like a human prune.
Among women (and men) there is a certain sect with a anxious need to fit in with social media trends or the media zeitgeist. They subscribe to “Good whites vs bad whites” thinking. This segues to “Passover syndrome” in which they pray that having preached the “correct” thinking, they will be passed over for getting fired to make way for diversity. This is an iterative process. With each cycle there are fewer “bad whites” to remove. The remaining “good whites” need to utter “correct” ideas even more fanatically hoping to avoid the next round of cuts. They cycle has no incentive to stop, because “The work is never done.” Especially when people are paid to implement DEI goals.
The other darkly ironic aspect is that the most rabidly devoted “good whites” seem to come from the whitest spaces. Old money or populaces that are overwhelmingly white such as Portland.
Where can the Israel-Gaza war fit in? I like the suggestions of convincing the Jews that DEI ideology is the root of this, rather than a need for more identity protections, which Muslims will just ask for as well. The task of white identity is a big enough challenge and we best not try to have too many active fronts.
Diagnosing “Passover Syndrome” Among White Liberals
“Passover Syndrome” is one your finest distillations of modern times. It’s right up there with Sailer’s “Noticing”. It exploded in the post-George Floyd era and perfectly diagnoses why whites are still waging a Civil War of sorts among themselves. Whittling down to smaller numbers, hoping to be the last white woman standing. Ah, but a fleeting dream debased, the head of the diversity department wants your head.
Jim, I understand that you, as a journalist and columnist, are obligated to think things through, consider all the angles, parse people’s backgrounds and motivations, etc.
It’s not only your responsibility, but I’m sure it’s second nature for you to do so.
But man are you overthinking this one. There’s nothing deep, or meaningful, or sincere here.
It’s a grift. Nothing more. Anti-whiteness sells. Penis enlargement tablets sell. Fake Rolexes sell. Just as mood rings and pet rocks used to sell.
White women flock to these made-up jobs and enterprises. I can’t turn around without bumping into a White woman who styles herself a “leadership consultant”, “conflict mediator”, Human Resource specialist, or therapist. God, the therapists. Thousands of therapists. Endless therapists.
Vague titles: “Deputy director of associate directorship.”
Anyway. Peddling anti-Whiteness is a slam dunk surefire way to attract an audience and attract major dollars. Nothing more. It’ll go the way of Chia Pets, Members Only jackets, and New Coke relatively soon.
Won’t be long before a copy of Ms. Di’Angelos book is seen as a humorous artifact of the 2020’s lunacy, nothing more.
Give credit to the white/jewish ladies. They identified a market, exploited the hell out of it, and made millions. The civilizational corrosion it caused be damned, right?
But don’t ascribe any deeper or sincere motives to these hucksters.
It ain’t there.
I don’t believe it’s a grift.
I get the sense they are “true believers”, and they have bought in totally, to the Liberal, anti-White, utopian, egalitarian, cult. Evidently it is not economics that drives the White woman, but virtue, or rather this inversion of virtue and values our people have succumbed to that gives her sense of belonging. I was going to add fulfillment, but these women are miserable, loathsome creatures.
Christianity has evidently damaged the White consciousness, as it is here we first encounter not only “original sin” but the act of humiliating ritualistic suicide a means of virtue and atonement. Even if the miracle occurred and we banished Liberalism from the world, we would still have to contend with Christianity at the root.
It is evident Whites have inscribed this deeply into their being, as there is nothing greater than to destroy oneself for the sacred oppressed, and who is more wretched than the holy black man?
But America is by no means a Christian nation, as all other so called Christian principles have been jettisoned, or deemed backwards, beliefs we are now ashamed to have held; no American is a negrolatous nation.
The sacred African is now an object of worship which through our abnegation we seek atonement.
Never in human history have I seen a country psychologically ruin its now former majority population. This is an unprecedented, historic evil.
Even the woman with the anti-White thoughts who carried out the anti-White thoughts to the physical and biological level is left depressed.
One would naturally assume destroying your physical image, and the image of your forbearers would suffice, but not even that in itself is enough.
The situation appears hopeless.
These true believers sure like money.
The “Race to Dinner” scam costs $2500 per evening.
A bargain, really, compared to the $30K Robin D’Angelo charges for a workshop.
But those are rookie numbers.
Ibram X Kendi amassed $40 million for his racism research institute. Then didn’t bother doing any research.
I could probably list another dozen examples if I felt like it.
Maybe they are suicidally altruistic true believers. But they sure put a pretty high price tag on their altruism.
You’re ignoring all the people who are paying the money. They clearly outnumber the ones getting paid.
Ummm…yes. Grifters and scam artists typically have more than one victim. Bernie Madoff had more than one investor. So did Enron. Robin DiAngelo has sold more than one book and Race to Dinner has entertained more than one guest. So what? I didn’t ignore this fact, it’s just not only irrelevant but so stupendously obvious that I didn’t think to mention it.
But, yes. The consumers of White guilt outnumber those who peddle it. That’s undeniably true.
“Never in human history have I seen a country psychologically ruin its now former majority population. This is an unprecedented, historic evil.”
And in such an astonishingly short time frame, well within living memory or almost so.
🙂

Guilt is not a Christian invention. On the contrary, the twin Indo-European doctrines of karma and rebirth (sin by another name) go all the way back to the Rig Veda. What is unique about Christianity is not that there is a tab, but who is going to pay it and how. There is only one “humiliating ritualistic act of suicide as a means of virtue and atonement.” It is unique and final. Ongoing self-flagellation is not only unnecessary but indicative of a lack of Faith in the efficacy of the Cross.
Indeed, some have criticized Christianity for it’s lack of emphasis on guilt and personal atonement. As the great Thomas Hardy’s titular character Tess lamented:
I can’t believe in such sudden things! I feel indignant with you for talking to me like this, when you know—when you know what harm you’ve done me! You, and those like you, take your fill of pleasure on earth by making the life of such as me bitter and black with sorrow; and then it is a fine thing, when you have had enough of that, to think of securing your pleasure in heaven by becoming converted! Out upon such—I don’t believe in you—I hate it!” (Chapter 45)
All that is to say, if Christianity is intended to impose a “slave morality,” it doesn’t go nearly far enough.
What stood out to me was the woman who fought the patriarchy and wanted to know how she was supposed to step aside now without feeling resentment. She had probably fancied herself a heroine on the front lines fighting for other women unable to fight for themselves. (Women think that way about feminism.) Now, the message she’s getting is her work is vanity. They’re ungrateful and she was causing harm by fighting while white. Now she’ll have to take on some support role, which is why she was fighting the patriarchy in the first place.
“WRONG!!! WAH-WAH-WAH,”
Wow, I’ve never seen the Great Jim Goad lose it like this before in the comments section. He absolutely is using pilpul in the comment thread above, with Lexi, to say that what he said didn’t mean what it meant. Not that he’s entirely wrong; just overstating the case against women, in my opinion and in my own experience.
Right. Because when I said “largely” and “many” and “there are exceptions,” I clearly meant “all.” When you go out of your way to make exceptions, the only honest and logical interpretation is “there are no exceptions.”
Despite the fact that I explicitly, and without a tinge of apology, express the negative things I’ve said, felt, and done, apparently there’s a strain of female self-pity that will accept nothing less than complete victimization and erasure. Who is acting Jewish here again?
Right. Because when I said “largely” and “many” and “there are exceptions,” I clearly meant “all.” When you go out of your way to make exceptions, the only honest and logical interpretation is “there are no exceptions.”
Right. You want to put WN women in the same position relative to the movement that Whites are in relative to mainstream society. We’re fine so long as we sing along to your various condemnations of women for this, that, and other thing, while we beg for recognition that we, ourselves, are among the rare, exceptional “good ones.”
Nevermind the fact that there is no reason to believe White women are any more treacherous and opportunistic than men. Personally, I suspect the contrary, given that almost nothing women ever do could equal the colossal blunder of bringing African slaves to the North American continent, failing to repatriate them after emancipation, giving them the vote while your own White women remained disenfranchised, etc.
In Europe, some idiot named Gunnar Myrdal decided he was going to put Sweden on the map as a “moral superpower,” since it would never be able to rival the real superpowers, and, after all, men are going to do what men do: compete for power and position, to hell with the consequences.
We can stop whenever you want to call a truce, Jim, but I’m not going to give you a pass, though I am aware that you criticize incels for various reasons. How do you think I know you’re scared of being called names? It’s appears that you’re trying to manage your critics by criticizing everyone equally, whether they deserve it or not. Or maybe you’re just a sincere misanthrope. Either way, your criticism of incels demonstrates that you, perhaps more than anyone else in the movement, understand that there is a flame, and then you go ahead and fan it anyway, knowing perfectly well how dangerous it is.
Notice I don’t accuse Millennial Woes of pandering to misogynists anymore, because I think he has gone all in on misogynist neoreaction. That’s what happens when you live in an echo chamber. You start to believe your own bullshit, especially when you’re bright enough to find ways to resolve the cognitive dissonance that follows from all the internal contradictions. The same is happening to you as we speak.
Mind-reading fallacy, appeal to motive, additional straw-manning, etc., etc., yawn.
Yes, anyone can clearly look back on my history of writing and behavior and conclude that it’s entirely motivated by trying to appease people and have them like me. I was sitting here shuddering, hoping you’d magnanimously offer me a “pass” or a “truce.” After all, you’re so likable and logical, who wouldn’t seek your approval?
It can’t possibly be that people such as you, with your endless finger-wagging and tut-tutting, all delivered with such palpable bitterness and tone-deafness toward humor, cause people to dislike women. And perish the thought that this is exactly what I was talking about when I said women are a primary cause of this “misogyny” you’re always crashing these comment sections to screech about.
And if you’re not actually that kind of stereotypical nag and are merely some male troll doing an impersonation of that type, hats off. It’s a hell of an impersonation.
Despite all my “misogyny,” I’ve been with the same fantastic woman for over five years now, a fact I’ve written about and which by itself refutes your “You said ALL WOMEN are like this” canard right out of the gate. Despite the fact that you present as unreasonable and annoying, I wish you equivalent happiness with the opposite sex, assuming that’s actually a goal of yours.
Otherwise, go wave your Magical Disapproval Wand in someone else’s face, because it will never work on me.
I’ve learned to avoid people who insist on telling me that I mean what I don’t mean and that I’ve said what I’ve never said.
Bye-bye, Shrillexi.
Mind-reading fallacy, appeal to motive
Actually, I was trying to give you the benefit of the doubt, a mistake I won’t repeat.
Is this guy shrill and tone-deaf to humor, Jim?
https://digiday.com/marketing/copyranter-go-ad-joke-still-white-male-moron/
I didn’t think so.
Shrill : Woman :: Racist : White
I see you’ve added on, Jim, so I’ll do the same.
Despite all my “misogyny,” I’ve been with the same fantastic woman for over five years now, a fact I’ve written about and which by itself refutes your “You said ALL WOMEN are like this” canard right out of the gate…Despite the fact that you present as unreasonable and annoying, wish you equivalent happiness with the opposite sex, assuming that’s actually a goal of yours.
First of all, I have had more kids than you have had wedding anniversaries, at least with your current wife, so I don’t need your well wishes. Yes, they all have the same Baby Daddy, all born in wedlock. He doesn’t cry foul when I stump him fair and square in an argument. To the contrary, he thinks it’s kinda hot. Hence, all the kids.
Now, the fact that you concede that there are exceptions to your general observation that, in your own words, women are “weak and cowardly and traitorous and infantile” doesn’t change the fact that you are peddling misogyny. That is the crux of the issue. Your exact words were “on the whole.” Are you going to persist with your obnoxious hair-splitting and tell me that “on the whole” and “largely” don’t mean “in general” or “as a rule” and tell me that I am irrational for interpreting your words this way?
Of course, you are entitled to peddle misogyny all you like. I’m just pointing out your intellectual dishonesty in so doing. You said “women” (not “people”) are a “breed largely without honor.” Okay. I asked you to tell me what you mean by “honor.” You owe me a response. Your failure to provide one suggests to me that you have no interest in any kind of rational discussion nor are you willing to defend your outrageous statements.
Remember that time Richard Spencer get sucker-punched on live TV. Whatever you think of Spencer, and personally I’m not a fan, I think we can all agree that sucker punching people and running away doesn’t seem very “honorable.” You remind me of that guy. You want to take your shots and then go run and hide behind shut-up words like “shrill” and “humorless.” Nothing is Jewier than the old “Can’t you take a joke?” retort.
Misogynists from years back always made it a point to be specific in their attacks on women. That way, you could take their arguments one by one and demolish them. Now, they just emote like this deranged lunatic Ray whom you treat with kid gloves despite the fact that he clearly celebrates White extinction.
But all the news is not bad. I heard David Zsutty on TPC this week and he was refreshingly honest and fair to White women, so many thanks for that. I object to his claim that we should “attack feminism,” because I think that the word singles out women for an individualist approach to life that is not unique to them, but that is a minor quibble. The important thing is that he acknowledged, sincerely I believe, that White women, ahem… “as a whole” don’t hate babies.
White women have been the heart-n-soul of the Totalitarian Progs for fifty years now. They are treacherous, traitorous scum and they and their money-daddies need to be crushed and tossed on the garbage heap of history.
You ain’t helpin’, sir.
I’m tossing as many as I can on the heap in the time I’ve got left. Plus their enablers. And I have been doing it a long time.
I guess your army and my army ain’t the same thing. So be it.
Someone had to say it.
These hypersensitive, easily-offended chicks just prove Goad’s point. If the accusation doesn’t fit, don’t take it personally. There’s no need to gratuitously defend those to whom the accusation applies. You women protest too much. Please go back to the kitchen and fix your man a sandwich.
Additional support for the general theme can be found in voting patterns and the results of women’s suffrage. See various graphics showing election results if only the votes of men counted. See also various Ann Coulter commentaries.
If you really cared about the underlying issue, you’d accept that you (if you can be believed) represent a minority of women, and you wouldn’t waste your time fighting for your specialness to be recognized and celebrated. Given that most women vote for left-wing candidates, right-wing women should oppose women’s suffrage.
Women’s suffrage will only be abolished if suffrage in general is severely limited. Men who have completed (tough) military service and married women whose husbands are enfranchised and with two or more children would be one possible schema. Something to bias the electorate towards conservatism, suffrage being a reward for contribution to the nation.
Please go back to the kitchen and fix your man a sandwich.
I fix my husband anything he likes, on demand (usually, anyway).
Given that most women vote for left-wing candidates, right-wing women should oppose women’s suffrage.
Not for it, not against it. At this particular point in history, voting doesn’t work anymore, so speaking against (or for) women’s suffrage is useless. The frog’s already boiling and you want us to mouth off about…voting? LOL!
If only men’s votes counted, we’d have Republicans in charge, wouldn’t we. Trump, Biden: two cheeks on same arse (thanks, Belloc). The Republicans are the bastards who made sure Ron Paul did not win the Republican nomination in 2011-12. So I figured out from that, that voting was futile.
I did have to come to that conclusion a year or so ago. Although, like Stronza says, voting is dumb anyway.
Nellie Bowles is a statistical outlier (a wealthy lesbian married to a Jewess). While her behavior is cringe worthy, it isn’t something that I see everyday.
The more common issues that young men have to deal with are:
1. A large portion of women spend their 20s partying and engaging in behaviors which make them less attractive. I could post TikToks of middle class White girls (who I know IRL) bragging about being alcoholics, blasting rap music, getting silly tattoos, and literally crying about how the man they’re sleeping with refuses to make things official. Every man in my age group (20s) has seen this type of behavior.
2. Nearly 30% of GenZ women identify as LGBT:
https://news.gallup.com/poll/611864/lgbtq-identification.aspx
Most never become lesbians, instead they identify as non-binary, bisexual, or transgender. They often adopt these identities after becoming involved with Feminism or going through a depressive period and being put on SSRIs. For obvious reasons, most young men do not want to date women with gender identity issues.
3. Self assortment. Young men & women are moving to different places. This disparity is most obvious in regions like western North Dakota, where there is a severe gender imbalance due to the shale boom.
4. White women racemix in a different way than White men. Whenever this is discussed, someone pulls out marriage statistics (which show that White male x Asian female marriages are more common than Black male x White female). However, we also have stats showing that 92% of mulatto children are born out of wedlock:
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/315367933_Ninety_Two_Percent_Examining_the_Birth_Trends_Family_Structure_Economic_Standing_Paternal_Relationships_and_Emotional_Stability_of_Biracial_Children_with_African_American_Fathers
This means that Black male x White female mixing is far more frequent than marriage stats suggest… but the women almost always end up as single mothers. This has obviously had a disproportionately strong impact on the White working class.
5. Young men are twice as likely to be single as women:
https://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/3868557-most-young-men-are-single-most-young-women-are-not/
This is not due to a huge number of young women dating older men, it’s due to multiple women dating the same guys.
______________
Issues which I do not see as being nearly as troublesome:
– Careerism. In South Korea, this appears to be a primary reason for the low birth rate. However, most White women are not as fanatically focused on work as their East Asian counterparts.
– ‘Women don’t like babies.’ I’ve never seen any proof women have suddenly stopped liking them.
