Quotes of the Week

Enlightened insights taken from the past week’s reading:

"Relationships are some of the most important things created in life, and that is the key to understanding Southern music.  Southern music was not created by committee, or by decree, or by a government.  It was created by individual people building relationships with each other, cooperating and collaborating with each other, learning from each other, and having a good time.  Ultimately, that is also the key to understanding all of Southern culture."

Tom Daniel

"How can a good society ever be attained by building up a state-made 'right' to vote and placing it ahead of natural rights of free exchange? In the classical liberal view, the state has a limited role in protecting property rights. Elevating the role of voting as superior to property rights is a political philosophy subversive to property rights."

Michael Rozeff

"Far from enjoying supremacy, white males are denied equality. They are discriminated against in university admissions and employment. Free speech is denied to them. According to military wives, white males are being denied promotions while the military achieves diversity balancing.  Google fires white males for stating basic facts. White school boys are being browbeat and feminized.  The charge of white supremacy is being used to herd white people to the back of the bus.  While they sit there and suck their thumbs, white people are being propagandized out of existence."

Paul Craig Roberts

"Democracy does not ameliorate conflict; it generates conflict.  It does not eliminate the essential nature of the state as a violent institution; it only masks that nature.  It is the nature of the state itself, as an institution that systematically uses aggressive violence, each instance of which creates winners and losers, that is the cause of escalating conflict in America.  Unless we wake up, the misplaced reliance on democracy and voting as a means to resolve conflicts among individuals and groups, will lead us all the way to the brink of civil war as it has done already in other countries and in our own country in 1861!"

James Ostrowski

"Many leftists desperately desire a kind of apocalypse, but an apocalypse on their terms. The globalists are giving them one, or at least a farcical version of one called 'climate change,' in which mankind angers nature with his production and progress, but is smote down with catastrophe while the devout leftists watch on in their purity saying 'We tried to warn you, but you would not repent...' This is of course science fiction, not fact, based on junk science funded by organizations with agendas to manipulate the masses.

The solution to this apocalypse, coincidentally, always ends up being more government, more control over human trade and progress, population reduction, and perhaps even global governance of every aspect of life. Otherwise, we might incur the wrath of the great leftist war god of destruction — carbon fed global warming. In the minds of leftists, that will be the moment when we all understand that they were the sane ones, that their cult was right all along, and we will come to them willingly, prostrating ourselves before their mighty intellectual superiority."

Brandon Smith

"Only if there is already an existent social order is it possible for anyone to immigrate to it. To put it another way, the logic of the concept of 'immigrant' logically presupposes both an established society to which the immigrant immigrates and, importantly, the concept of 'native' or 'indigenous,' i.e. of the non-immigrant.

America was established by those who settled it.  There was no America before specific people at a specific time decided to tame the vast wilderness that would become the territorial jurisdiction of the United States.  Those people were all white, all British, and, at the time of the War of Independence—about 170 years after the first settlers made a home for themselves in Virginia—they were at least 80 percent English and 98% Protestant Christian.

To repeat, there was no America until white, British Protestants created it.

Thus, the term of 'Native-American,' designed to refer to those who were formerly described as 'Indian,' are patent misnomers. Yet the movers and shakers of the Big Con use it just as frequently as do 'Politically Correct' liberal leftist Democrats."

Jack Kerwick

"In the world in which we live in right now, millions of people in the United States are supposedly hungry, homeless, sick, and economically disadvantaged. If the super-rich want to help these people, then why don’t they put their money where their mouth is and do it? Why involve the government? And why do they want the government to force their super-rich brethren to be philanthropic?"

Laurence Vance

"The Founding Fathers feared a standing army, and for good reason. While its ideal purpose is to create peace, we do not live in a world of ideals. The actual effects are to lower the costs of war to those who would have it, and to create a special-interest group of bureaucrats and military personnel who have a vested interest in advancing the war machine. As long as the army stands, peace is unlikely to be achieved or long-lasting."

Andrew Kern

"Slavery never ended; the terms of employment changed for the quaint but anachronistic chattel slave institution to update servitude to the contemporary government arrangements for mass theft.

America is too big to succeed at anything but tyranny."

Bill Buppert

"Assistance given voluntarily … is truly charity; that taken from another by force … is not charity at all, in spite of its use for avowed 'charitable purposes.' The virtue of compassion and charity cannot be sired by the vice of thievery. … All told, the process of 'political charity' is about as complete a violation of the requisites of charity as can be conceived."

F.A. Harper

"Attacking a person as a 'conspiracy theorist' was the only tool critics really needed to keep a piece of evidence or a concrete viewpoint from going viral. Conspiracy theory is equated to insanity, or stupidity or buffoonery. Everyone knows a conspiracy theorist is not to be taken seriously, so why waste time listening to what they have to say in the first place?

It should come as no surprise that conspiracy reality is not something these people want entertained by the public. Conspiracies are a fact of history. Governments lie all the time, and they have been caught doing it. The media lie constantly, and has been caught doing it. Yet, we are supposed to ignore this and assume that anyone daring to stand contrary to government and media claims is some kind of lunatic?"
