Hooray!) Kevin Maconald at Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_MacDonald_(evolutionary_psychologist) Kevin MacDonald at the SPLC: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_MacDonald_(evolutionary_psychologist) Kevin MacDonald Twitter: https://twitter.com/TOOEdit "The Culture of Critique" PDF at the Internet Archive. https://archive.org/details/CultureofC The Occidental Observer: https://www.theoccidentalobserver.net/ TOQ Live: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVL-NtVxGUTAuba3QpIqiZg Judith Shulevitz, "Evolutionary Psychology's Anti-Semite." https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2000/01/evolutionary-psychology-s-anti-semite.html "MacDonald's central thesis is that Judaism is best understood not as a religion but as a blueprint for an experiment in eugenics–a "group evolutionary strategy," he calls it–designed to maximize a single trait: intelligence. For thousands of years, he says, Jews have separated themselves from their neighbors, choosing to confine themselves to a closed society with strict rules against marrying outside the group. They have lived by policies of extreme group loyalty and obedience to rabbinical authority, which served to maintain their racial purity; and they practiced low-birth-rate, high-investment parenting, which is the royal road to a high group I.Q. They conferred social status (which brings along with it the most desirable women) on men according to their brilliance–indeed, says MacDonald, study of the Talmud was nothing more than a casuistic exercise meant to weed out the dim. Eventually, their highly developed genes for mental and verbal acuity, as well as their social aggression (also carefully bred-in), gave the Jews powerful tools that enable them to dominate neighboring ethnic groups in the endless war of all against all for food and resources." [...] "Are MacDonald's peers aware of what he's writing in the name of a field long accused of fostering–unfairly, many of them would say; by Jews, MacDonald would say–sexist and racist stereotypes? Do other evolutionary psychologists have an opinion on MacDonald? Culturebox called several well-known members of HBES, specifying in her voice messages that she was writing an article about MacDonald. Few returned her phone calls, but those who did said they'd never read his Jewish trilogy. Two leading scholars said they had read papers of his on other subjects and found them "muddled"; one academic said she had been forced to reject a paper by MacDonald on child development for an anthology she was editing. When Culturebox described the contents of MacDonald's books to them, they expressed extreme shock and said he contradicted the basic principles of contemporary evolutionary psychology. "The notion that Jews are a genetically distinct group doesn't make it on the basis of modern population genetics," said John Tooby, the president of HBES and a professor of anthropology at the University of California at Santa Barbara. Also, he said, "group-selection theory"–the idea that natural selection can occur at the level of a group (such as a bunch of Jews) as opposed to individuals–was debunked in the 1960s, and though some scholars are working to bring group-selection theory back, it remains a minority view." George Michael, "Professor Kevin MacDonald's Critique of Judaism: Legitimate Scholarship or the Intelleetualization of Anti-Semitism?" "Kevin MacDonald was bom in 1944 and raised in a traditional Catholic family in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. Growing up, he attended Catholic schools and obtained a BA in philosophy from the University of Wisconsin in 1966. While in college, he became involved in the campus anti-war movement. Interestingly, several of his roommates were Jewish, which, as MacDonald later recounted, opened his eyes to Jewish involvement in radical causes. One incident in particular that left an impression on him was when Jewish student radicals recruited him to give a speech in order to present a supposedly non-Jewish veneer to their politics. During this phase in nis life, MacDonald entertained dreams of becoming a jazz pianist, i Several years later, however, he abandoned both his musical career and radical politics to enter graduate school at the age of 30." From the introduction to CoC: "CofC describes how Jewish intellectuals initiated and advanced a number of important intellectual and political movements during the 20th century. I argue that these movements are attempts to alter Western societies in a manner that would neutralize or end anti-Semitism and enhance the prospects for Jewish group continuity either in an overt or in a semi-cryptic manner. Several of these Jewish movements (e.g., the shift in immigration policy favoring non-European peoples) have attempted to weaken the power of their perceived competitors— the European peoples who early in the 20th century had assumed a dominant position not only in their traditional homelands in Europe, but also in the United States, Canada, and Australia. At a theoretical level, these movements are viewed as the outcome of conflicts of interest between Jews and non-Jews in the construction of culture and in various public policy issues. Ultimately, these movements are viewed as the expression of a group evolutionary strategy by Jews in their competition for social, political and cultural dominance with non-Jews. "Here I attempt to answer some typical criticisms that have been leveled against CofC. (See also my website: www.csulb.edu/~kmacd). I also discuss issues raised by several books that have appeared since the publication of CofC. There have been complaints that I am viewing Judaism in a monolithic manner. This is definitely not the case." Kevin MacDonald's statement to the court in the Irving/Lipstadt case: https://web.archive.org/web/20010415064434/http://www.csulb.edu/~kmacd/statement_court.htm "The main point of my testimony is that the attacks made on David Irving by Deborah Lipstadt and Jewish organizations such as the Anti-Defamation League should be viewed in the long-term context of Jewish-gentile interactions. As indicated by the summaries of my books, my training as an evolutionist as well as the evidence compiled by historians leads me to conceptualize Judaism as self-interested groups whose interests often conflict with segments of the gentile community. Anti-Jewish attitudes and behavior have been a pervasive feature of the Jewish experience since the beginnings of the Diaspora well over 2000 years ago. While anti-Semitic attitudes and behavior have undoubtedly often been colored by myths and fantasies about Jews, there is a great deal of anti-Jewish writing that reflects the reality of between-group competition exactly as expected by an evolutionist. Particularly important have been the themes of separatism—the fact that Jewish groups have typically existed as recognizably distinct groups and have been unwilling to assimilate either culturally or via marriage to the wider society, the theme of economic, political, and cultural domination, and the theme of disloyalty."

This week, we look at a bit more Nazi infighting, and talk a little bit about some reactions we've had... Content Warning.

Now They've Put a Target on His Back." https://www.thedailybeast.com/i-dont-speak-german-podcaster-daniel-herman-exposed-neo-nazis-now-he-has-a-target-on-his-back "In early September, Harper and his co-host released a pair of episodes that focused on the adherents of an obscure neo-Nazi author named James Mason. A book Mason wrote has become a bible of sorts for terroristic neo-Nazi groups like Atomwaffen Division, and it has helped spawn a new wave of so-called accelerationists—people who believe societal collapse is the quickest way to create an all-white ethnostate. Many of those adherents flocked to Telegram, the encrypted messaging app, in recent months after getting booted from other social media platforms. And they've created their own enclave there, which they refer to as "Terrorgram." It was there, in the Terrorgram community, that the threats against Harper took shape. On Sept. 11, an anonymous post appeared on one of the Terrorgram channels, telling people to send Harper "fan mail" at his address in Michigan. The following day, the same channel published a video from someone who drove by the address and filmed the house. "Howdy, antifascist activist Daniel Harper," the text of the post read. "Nice place you've got there." The posts set off a wave of chatter on Telegram. In the midst of it was a user who went by the handle "Anti-Kosmik 2182," who chimed in with his thoughts about what to do about Harper. "Ditch the car somewhere a few blocks away, take back alleys, trails in the woods, etc., and then come up on the house wearing a mask," he wrote. "I'm not saying do anything illegal, but I am saying it would be a real shame if all he has went up in literal flames." In court records, the FBI later said that "Anti-Kosmik 2182" was Smith, an infantry soldier stationed at Fort Riley, Kansas. The bureau also revealed that it had an undercover agent on Telegram who was interacting with Smith around the same time."

Their thinking on this is roughly that once the system is collapsed, the citizenry will welcome the iron fisted rule of Nazis who will restore order by force. Though they make a compelling case, I differ from their view on this. I support the President of the United States, they do not. I support the Republican Party, they do not. I want to save America from collapse, they do not. We are part of rival factions, and associating me with them is nothing short of a fraud upon this court. We disagree so much, that this faction to which I refer has endlessly harassed me, made death threats, defaced my website, made false reports to law enforcement, and launched Distributed Denial Of Service attacks against my website and radio servers. This has gone on for almost a year, ever since the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting, of which they concluded I was not nearly supportive enough. In response to the crimes they committed against me, I contacted my local police department, who suggested we involve the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and we did just that. All of this is documented in extensive discussions I have had with law enforcement about these crimes perpetrated against me by the faction Plaintiffs falsely try to associate me with."

An intriguing concept called the 'siege pill' contrasts mainstream nationalism with radical extremism. The discussion delves into the alarming activities of the Atomwaffen Division and the dangerous rhetoric surrounding domestic terrorism. It further explores the legacy of neo-Nazi movements through James Mason's influence. The rise of Internet Bloodsports provides insight into content creators navigating extreme ideologies. Conversations on FBI tactics and the balance of humor with serious topics reveal the complex nature of addressing domestic violence in today’s societal landscape.

This week, Daniel talks to journalists Shane Burley and Alexander Reid Ross about white nationalism in the Pacific Northwest. Content warnings.
