Goddamn, ain't that the truth. I went from ranting at CTR in here last night to reverently listening to the songs of Leonard Cohen just 30 minutes later.

You cannot be a cultured well-read person without having a deep respect for the works of many Jews, and a deep disgust for the works of many Jews.

You're a county commissioner and you're swinging your dick around about using you're authority and you're dressed like you're selling 1/8ths at riot fest. You're out and out saying you're going to ubstruct law enforcement and you can't even get the cheapest optical win by getting arrested in a suit.

They’re not wrong. When almost the entirety of your populace are in some degree of military service “muh civillians” cries fall short.

The concept of a legal distinction between "civilian" and soldier is itself very recent in historical terms. While it was considered immoral to wantonly rape and slaughter noncombatants as far back as history can remember, only until a hundred or so years ago everyone realized that a military force and the ostensibly nonmilitary industry and society of its nation formed a complete organism.

It's the same as modern propaganda's very successful attempt to differentiate "good" immigrants of a given race from the bad. The Mexicans who work in the hotel and on the farm, the "doctors and lawyers," ultimately facilitate the Mexicans who are narcos and traffickers and garden variety nigger-tier criminals. When the good facilitates the bad, it isn't good at all.

Part of accelerationism is a realization that its literally impossible to undo or fix certain problems once they take root. You have to build a new structure.

My issue with accelerationism is that it is too passive and depends too much on the masses having a sudden realization. It is very easy for people to get stuck in a cycle of helplessness and despair, waiting around for a flashpoint that never happens while cheering on their own destruction. Cuckservatives have been doing a lighter version of this for decades, tediously pointing out leftwing hypocrisy and waiting for others to take action. It hasn’t worked!

Don't want to share too much, but I have knowledge from someone who work with government documents that at least one office that handles tax assessments has supposedly been firebombed. Given the nature of everything going on, I have a hard time believing it was a random act of violence.

Update to those interested:
The managed to catch the dude who did it. Short version is a schizo let out of prison early. Many such cases.

herzl was a very smart man, his takes on the jewish question in europe were almost prophetic and way ahead of his time.
one reason for why he pursued the zionist project was that he predicted a growing tide of antisemitism in europe, which would make life increasingly difficult and dangerous for the jews, and he described the causes for it like this:
this was in 1896, two decades before the first world war, and it's crazy how right he was in hindsight - the jewish involvement in revolutionary politics would indeed be a huge driving force behind the antisemitic reaction that swept europe in the early 20th century.

Wow, that's really on-point.

I'll confess, I've never actually read Herzl, and a quote like this makes me think there may be more to him than I've thought before. What work is this quote from?
