Kyle Rittenhouse Found Not Guilty of Shooting Three Black Men
As I explained last week, the only remotely racial element of the Kyle Rittenhouse case — if you discount the convicted boy-raper dwarf Joseph Rosenbaum shouting, “shoot me, nigga!” to a crowd of non-niggas — was the idea that mobs were roaming the streets of Kenosha burning buildings and destroying property for three days because, in the course of trying to arrest a black man named Jacob Blake over a domestic sexual-assault situation, a Jewish cop had shot Blake after the domestically violent Negro had turned his back against police orders before walking away from them and reaching inside his car.

I came across David Cronenberg’s Videodrome relatively late in my arc of movie-viewing enthusiasm. It went well past the high school-aged fascination with low-brow horror (the original Friday the 13th or Nightmare on Elm Street) or college-years serial killer obsession (American Psycho or any movie derived from Ed Gein mayhem).

Denis Villeneuve’s Dune, Part I is now in theatres. I can’t recommend it. It isn’t terrible. It is merely mediocre. I found it dull to the eyes, grating to the ears, and a drag on my patience. Villeneuve spends 156 minutes and only gets halfway through the novel. David Lynch told the whole story in 137 minutes. Of course audiences are willing to sit through long movies if they are really good: Peter Jackson’s The Lord of the Rings trilogy, for instance. But this film isn’t in that league. (more…)

Zatímco si pohledný řecký mladík Narkissos (Narcissus) zálibně prohlížel svůj vlastní odraz na hladině lesní tůňky, nabízel by skvělý terč pro černošskou „vybíjenou“ (Knock-Out game). Nějaký utlačovaný snědý mladík by k němu snadno mohl připlížit a názorně ukázat sílu spravedlivostí sevřené černé pěsti. (more…)

It’s remarkable, astounding, depressing, confounding, perplexing, and infuriating to behold the lengths to which Wikipedia will go to deny black Americans the overdue credit for something at which they truly excel — namely, crime. (more…)

As the handsome Greek youth Narcissus gazed into his forest pool, adoring his own reflection, he would have made a perfect target for the Knock-Out Game. An oppressed black could easily have crept up behind him and demonstrated the power of the righteous black fist. (more…)

We all know that when you have a hammer, everything looks like a nail. But does it follow that when you understand the culture of critique, every Jew looks hostile? Of course not, but, boy, it’s kind of tempting to think that way, isn’t it?
I think Tobias Langdon might have given in to that temptation a little bit in his engrossing essay “The Spinal Solution.” (more…)

When the Swiss mathematician Johann Bernoulli received an anonymous solution to a difficult problem he’d set in 1696, he saw at once who had sent it. The solver was Isaac Newton, he said, because he knew ex ungue leonem — “the lion by his claw.” (more…)

The New England schlockmeister Stephen King is a bad but interesting writer. Success is an interesting phenomenon, after all, and King is one of the most successful writers who have ever lived. Born in 1947 in Portland, Maine, he has sold millions of books in dozens of languages and won even wider exposure through film adaptations of novels like Carrie (1974) and The Shining (1977). (more…)

There appears to be a sea change underway on the American Right, as edgy, yet still-mainstream conservative outlets use the term “anti-white” increasingly often, as the word “white” becomes less and less unmentionable on talk shows like Tucker Carlson Tonight, and as Republican State legislatures across the nation adopt legislation to combat “critical race theory” propaganda in government, schoolrooms, and corporate boardrooms.
