One the stumbling blocks keeping ordinary whites from becoming white advocates is the idea that not all of “X” are like that – NAXALT. This usually refers to the fact that not all sub-Saharan Africans in America are prone to serious criminal mischief. This is true, not all blacks join street gangs and carry out drive-by shootings with Tek-9 handguns. However, most people, even liberal whites know in their bones that dark skin usually means danger and problems. That is because NAXALT is a meaningless tautology. Furthermore, embracing NAXALT also brings a problem called the normalization of deviance.
A tautological statement is phrased in a way that it is always true, and that’s what makes it meaningless. The ball is green or not green. The color of the ball might not matter, however. One cannot play basketball with a bowling ball. Obviously, no individual representation of the group is exactly alike all the other members of the group. However, groups have characteristics, and those characteristics matter.
In America, the primary domestic social issue which underpins every social and governmental policy from the local level to the US State Department’s interactions with foreign governments is what to do about the blacks. Sub-Saharan Africans brought to America as slaves, or as immigrants in more recent times, are an issue because African group characteristics contain three important differences between whites: an average IQ a standard deviation below that of whites, different attitudes towards crime, and a matriarchal family structure.
Whites as a group, have collective characteristics opposite or divergent from that of sub-Saharans. The differences between the two races mean that American society is like that of the statue in Nebuchadnezzar’s Dream which had a head of gold, but feet made of clay and iron. Clay and iron don’t integrate or create a stable foundation, and in the dream the statue destroyed by a rolling rock not cut by human hands.
Nebuchadnezzar’s Empire consisted of a people held together by force and naturally unable to cooperate so any unforeseen event could bring down the entire kingdom. In America in 2005, Hurricane Katrina was an unforeseen event not made by human hands that caused more social damage than physical destruction. Whites in the impacted area dealt with the hurricane wisely while the sub-Saharan community collapsed. The hurricane marked a downward turning point for both America and the presidency of Bush 43.
A statue with feet of clay and iron represents the normalization of deviance. Where there is a flaw in the system that is unnoticed and usually doesn’t matter but can bring down the system if conditions are right. Group differences and the normalization of deviance are at the root a small event in Los Angeles in 1979, which had a big impact later. A black woman named Eula Love failed to pay a small utility bill. When the utility company attempted to collect, she became violent. The police arrived and she attacked them with a knife which caused her to be fatally shot.
Sub-Saharan race activists hyped the event. It launched the ethnonationalist black Congresswoman, Maxine Waters’s, career. The sub-Saharan lawyer Johnny Cochran successfully sued the City of Los Angeles on Eula Love’s family’s behalf. Eventually, the narrative behind this, helped lead to the 1992 LA Riots, and the acquittal of OJ Simpson although it was obvious Simpson had murdered his white wife.
The events around the Eula Love shooting have rippled outward. In places with large sub-Saharan communities, such as in Flint, Michigan and Jackson, Mississippi, public utilities have collapsed. The root cause of both problems was the failure to collect money owed by blacks to the utility company. The resulting unnecessary shortfall in revenue was a normalization of deviance which led to a failure to make necessary repairs and improvements, and the system broke.
Yes, not all sub-Saharans represent the extreme example of a dangerous gangbanger, witch doctor, or corrupt public official which white advocates point to. But it hardly matters, these figures rise to the top in all black communities. NAXALT is thus true, but meaningless.

Well done! Probably the best NAXALT I’ve read yet. Funny that you brought up hurricane Katrina, and the nightmare that ensued. I’m 100% positive that I’m not the only person to notice that whenever the news shows groups of people preparing for a big storm by making sand bags and putting plywood over windows, you NEVER see a black person pitching in.
I’ve known several people that worked for FEMA in the aftermath of hurricanes. Their saying went “first come the needy, then come the greedy.” Would anyone care to guess what the greedy look like?
True yet irrelevant because I don´t accept blacks, or any other race, in my community totally irrespective of their prowess, only just for the one reason that I want to live with my kin and not with other races.
Most of us here get it. This is for benefit of those who still have a hang-up about NAXALT.
What kind of person is it, I wonder, who simultaneously reads Counter Currents and still has a hangup about NAXALT?
There are people who may have friends who need some extra encouragement. For them, some concise talking points can be helpful, since it’s been found that “NAXALT” is a frequent sticking point holding people back. Alternatively, the article can be sent to someone who needs it. That’s why we’re doing this series.
Fair play to you, as the Irish say.
Consider the slogan widely disseminated by the DEI/CRT commissariat: “All white people are racist.”
Clearly, those promoting this sort of slogan do not believe in NAXALT themselves. They are more than willing to make blanket generalizations about white people which would be considered beyond the pale for any other group.
Look at related slogans such as: “White people are the real terrorists” or “White people invented (horrors!) racism to justify slavery.” The commissariat thinks itself fully justified in making blanket (and usually ahistorical) accusations against white people. Of course, they will toss all sorts of ideological word salad to justify these statements.
So much for NAWALT (Not All White People Are Like That)!
Here is a question: “If white people are really all privileged racists, terrorists, et alia, then wouldn’t if be a good idea for the critics to stop attacking them?” Because when white people decide to take action, they can get really, really mean. Really.
Some things to think about in the continuing chaos…
