    Very disturbing signs call for white people to mobilize against multiculturalism in Toronto

    Global News, November 14, 2016

    Toronto police have launched an investigation after residents in the city’s east-end found ultra right wing posters that urged white people tired of political correctness to question when immigration will stop.

    The signs have the following ultra right racist text:

    “Hey, WHITE PERSON. Tired of political correctness? Wondering why only white countries have to become ‘multicultural’? Figured out that diversity means ‘less white people’? Sick of being blame for all the world’s problems? Tired of being told you’re ‘racist’ for celebrating your heritage? Disgusted by the garbage on television? Don’t see a future for yourself and your family? Questioning when immigration will stop?”

    City Counselor Janet Davis told Global News:

    “I found the posters very disturbing. The sentiments expressed in the poster are totally unacceptable in this city and it’s very worrisome. I’m quite worried that the Donald Trump election has legitimized this kind of ultra right wing viewpoint and encouraged these kinds of expressions of hate. Toronto and Canadians generally don’t take these kind of extreme views. This is a city that is tolerant and inclusive and these views just aren’t acceptable. It’s hard to know what the motivation is behind whoever did this.”

    Davis said city staff are removing the signs and have launched an investigation to try to determine who is responsible for the posters.

    Nate Erskine-Smith, the member of parliament for Beaches-East York, also condemned the sign. “We are better than this. Ignorant, unacceptable and #NotMyCanada,” he tweeted.

    Marilyn Mayo, a research fellow at the Anti-Defamation League of Bnai Brith’s Center on Extremism, issued the following statement: “People feel emboldened right now to promote their white supremacist view. They feel that the movement has been embraced and is getting into the mainstream. They were more of a fringe movement, but they’ve received a lot of attention this year because of their support of Donald Trump.”

    Ian Daffern said he saw the posters while taking his son to school. “I was shocked, it was disgusting. So I started to tear it down. And he started pulling me along to make us go but I told him I don’t like bullies, so I took it down. I think it’s 100 per cent coming from the U.S. Election,” Daffern said. “People feel emboldened by these negative things that came out of the Trump win.”

    Toronto Police Const. Victor Kwong said they have launched an investigation and are taking samples of them for analysis.

    Kara Black, a caregiver, said she was shocked by the message. “It’s just sad,” she said. “Hopefully they’ll find whoever did it.”

    • My God are White people getting uppity now. The bullies actually put posters up on trees! How scary! We can’t tolerate this hate and the perpetrators must be found and punished! On the other hand, privileged White people need to stop whining about the “protesters” like the black ones beating the old man in Chicago.

      • That’s fine with me. Once the fags and the shitlibs up there die off we can march in and take over that country without any resistance. It will be a fine addition to the Trumpenreich and provide millions of new White American families with much needed Lebensraum.

          • Never forget sailing was the NUMBER 1 way to the West before the trailblazers in the ’40s, Eastern Canada was settled by New England/New York Loyalists, and these same people sailed around South America to our west coast and up to Vancouver. Which is why everything from Frisco-British Columbia WERE carbon copies of New England

          • How many of the original Texans arrived via sailing to New Orleans and onto Galveston? I would say a sizeable percentage. Sailing was the easiest way to travel west. Never forget the hundreds of Yankee businessmen who sailed from Boston to New Orleans and went west from there especially after ’65

          • The German and Czech settlers to Texas landed at Carlshafen(Indianola). Lots people came down the Wilderness Road and Nueches Trace from Virginia, Kentucky and Tennessee. They crossed the Red into Texas. Some came over from Louisiana. A lot more came by land, than by sea. Especially the French and Belgians.

          • I know most came by land, especially the Lower South. Usually the ones coming by sea were the Yankee Merchants looking to fleece people. Especially after 1865 when the Merchants descended upon the frontier like a plague of locusts

    • It’s really scary that just looking after your own interest is now White Supremacist.

      We need to defeat these people. There’s a post I saw that if we can get the electoral college to be proportional in “SOME” states instead of winner take all that this would keep us in power for another 50 years. You can do a lot on 50 years like mass White immigration. We could only have White people immigrate who said they were persecuted for being White in Europe.

      Another thing is to clean up the voting system. It can be done to where all or the vast majority of votes are legal. Add to that ID to vote. Judges have ruled against us on this it’s time to start impeaching them. Just because they wear robes doesn’t make them God.

      We need to play hardball for keeps like they do.

    • I’ve waited for years, in vain, for one of these smug types who blithey throw around the word “ignorant” to tell something I don’t know!

      I mean, the word does still mean not being aware of facts and information, right? Or has it devolved into a shorthand for, “You’re a bad person!”

  3. What is she doing here?? Oh right being an obnoxious annoying Jew. Paul Ryan is not your congressman Lena. Why aren’t you calling the fatass Jew Jerry Nadler and bitch to him?

  8. Assume everyone here knows major HRC surrogate Lena Dunham literally called for the extinction of white heterosexual males not too long ago. Video is out there.

  9. To Lena Dunham,

    As a White, Christian, Southern, heterosexual, man your opinions bore the hell out of me. You guys need to come up with a new playbook because your old one doesn’t work anymore. After all, it’s the current year and you lost. In short…piss off.

  11. The arrogance Anti-Trump groups decides who Trump can and can’t appoint for his administration.

    Meanwhile SPLC spray painting swazi and kkk stuff.

    • Watching Holocaust, it was a carnival ride set up outside of the Warsaw Ghetto. In real life, a fork in the road in Lithuania.

  16. Obongo, in Athens, warns us!

    “We are going to have to guard against a rise in a crude sort of nationalism or ethnic identity or tribalism that is built around an ‘us’ and a ‘them’.”

    “In the United States, we know what happens when we start dividing ourselves along lines of race or religion or ethnicity. It’s dangerous.”

  19. No need to use ‘brainwashing’ when you can use ‘brainwishing’.

    Make people wish and wish. Like hope and change of Obama. When you wish upon a star.

    Btw, I think ‘brainwashing’ is a misconception.

    For one thing, everyone is born with washed brains.

    We have no memory of anything that came before us or happened to our ancestors. We don’t know jack shi*. We are blank slate in that sense. We are born with inborn abilities and drives. But we are born without memory of any kind.

    Our personal memory depends on personal experience, but collective memory of ‘our people’ and our ancestors depend on what is told us by others.

    Communists didn’t wash brains. They just filled the brains of newborns with their narrative. Why wash what arrives washed? Children remember and know nothing, so whatever they are told becomes their truth.

    This is the power of PC. It fills the born-washed brains of children with worship of MLK, homos, and Diversity.

    Kids don’t know nuttin’.

    If a million Jewish kids are born this year, and if none are told about the Holocaust, it will be as though it never happened.

    Indeed, if they are told that Jews killed 6 million Germans, they will believe that and be filled with collective guilt.

    Every birth is like reboot-restoring a computer. All the previous files are gone. The innate operational program remains but all it stored in files are gone.

    So, PC(political correctness) is like PC(personal computer). It understands that each new kid is like a new computer without memory. So, Political Correctness provides the files with images and sounds that will be downloaded or installed on that organo-computer that is the child’s mind.

    PC is like Microsoft Windows. It seeks monopoly.

    Alt Right and other Alt ideologies are like Linux and other programs offering something different.

    =====================

      • Shortly before I discovered the suspension of Spencer’s account at Twitter, I saw a tweet in which he reported, breathlessly, that he was off to an interview, at National Public Radio. Twitter and National Public Radio: his enemies control both.

  22. http://www.unz.com/proberts/trumps-opponents-see-normal-americans-as-deplorables/#comment-1651889

    —-Chris Hedges in Death of the Liberal Class [2010] argues that:

    … “the failure of the liberal class to confront the rise of the corporate state and the consequences of a liberalism that has become profoundly bankrupted.”—-

    But Hedges is also in denial. Many of his critique of late capitalism is spot on, and I agree with his denunciation of what he calls the empire of illusion. We are living in some kind of perverted mickey mouse fantasy land where reality meets fantasy.

    But Hedges is also living in a kind of fantasy, one built on PC. He won’t challenge the real shibboleths of American Power, namely that there is an ethnic component to this problem. Jews aren’t merely rich people acting like ‘rich a-holes’. They are rich people using their power for tribal interests. Now, Jews acting tribally is fine as long as whites are allowed to act tribally too. But Jews defend their interests and identity but excoriate whites for expressing any identity or interest. Worse, Jews keep fanning anti-white flames among non-whites.

    Also, Hedges is too wedded to radical cliches to realize that they are just as idiotic as Pop Culture fantasies. Good for him to tear apart something like 50 SHADES OF GREY, a vapid celebration of wealth, power, and obsession with privilege. But what was his healthy alternative for a better future?

    Yep, you guessed it:

    https://static.independent.co.uk/s3fs-public/styles/story_medium/public/thumbnails/image/2016/02/13/20/42-Andrea-Dworkin-rex.jpg

    Read the whole thing here: https://www.truthdig.com/report/item/pornography_is_what_the_end_of_the_world_looks_like_20150215

    Hedges is so deeply into radical PC that he is clueless that he essentially trolled himself. I mean what worse sexual torture can one think of than Andrea Dworkin?

    50 Shades of Grey is Mister Rogers compared to Andrea the Giant.

    Hedges is right that the Democratic Party now serves the globo-capitalist elite.

    He is right that our pop culture is about excessive narcissism, hedonism, escapism, trashism, infantilism, and etc.

    But he won’t attack homomania that is the center of this idiocy. He won’t admit that the elites pushed homomania as the new ‘progressivism’ to turn the Left into a joke, more a fashion show and faddish cult than a serious movement about basic problems facing most middle class and working class folks.

    Now, I can understand Progressives championing tolerance for homos and allowing homo individuals to pursue careers. If a homo is a fine accountant or engineer, why not let him do his job?

    BUT, homosexuality can never be of EQUAL value with real sex, and notions such as ‘marriage equality’ opens the pandora’s box to all sorts of inanities and insanities.

    I mean if homo fecal penetration is basis for marriage, then just about any freak can make any demands on the name of equality.

    After ‘gay marriage’, there is no moral defense against polygamy or ‘incest marriage’. Such aren’t yet laws of the land, but if we follow the logic of ‘marriage equality’, anything goes. If homos should ‘marry’ on the basis of their idea of ‘love’, then why not mother and son or father and daughter and homo father and homo son?

    Also, if homosexuality is just as good as real sexuality and if trans-sexualism is also great cuz of its alliance with homos, then so are 50 or 100 other ‘genders’. Doesn’t Hedge see how homomania is related to the Empire of Illusion? We now have ‘progressives’ in colleges bitching and whining endlessly about how having green hair and tattoo on their ass makes them a ‘ze’ than a ‘he’ or ‘she’.

    In a real and normal world, we should acknowledge some people are born homo and accept them as such. But we should not turn praise of homos into some kind of pomo-homo-religion.

    Also, Leftism used to be about hard men and women facing hard times and having the guts to take on hard tasks for a better future. Grapes of Wrath is not about Fruits(homos) of Frivolity.

    But once proggism was taught to EVERY kid in America, even coddled privileged upper middle class and elite kids grew up with precious ‘victim’ mentality. Even though they had easy lives and all the privilege, they grew up wanting to be ‘victims’. So, every snowflake in college doesn’t want to be ‘triggered’ by uh.. ‘micro-aggressions’.

    Leftism used to be about workers with rough hands from real work in factory or on the farm. Now, it’s about fragile emotions and chipped fingernails of spoiled brats and pampered twits like Emma Sulkowicz, Lena Dunham, fat blowhard on Young Turk, Black Lives Matter lesbians(who have no understanding of reality), and men in dress who wanna wee wee in women’s room.

    But Hedges won’t touch on any of this.

    Also, Hedges overly idealizes the People. Yes, many people are suffering from White Death and Black Decay and all sorts of decadence, but a lot of people brought it upon themselves with excessive hedonism, narcissism, individualism, and infantilism. Granted, the elites made it worse by feeding garbage to the people via TV and movies and music, but there is moral corruption at every level of society.

    During the Great Depression, times were much tougher with far fewer safety nets, but people were stronger and had moral fiber. But look all around, and the problem of a lot of people is excess, not lack. Even among the poor, their main obsessions are hair weaves. It’s like that black woman in Milwaukee saying it’s better to burn stores in suburbs cuz they need their hair weaves. I mean WTF.

    Trump is right that the working class did get the shaft. But watch the documentary COUNTRY BOYS, and there is something really wrong with white working class and underclass. They are lazy, unmotivated, and have a millions excuses for messing up.

    They’d rather get ass tattoos than some learning.

    Americans were far less educated in the 19th century, but country boys back then walked miles to get to school to learn the basics. Now, a lot of students don’t even bother to learn when school buses pick them up.

    Where the elites have failed is in their refusal to lead. But then, in Jewish-controlled America, the notion of white elites caring about and leading white masses is just a no-no. Sounds too much like National Socialism.

    Hedges, like Gore Vidal, is a much better critic of the rich and privileged than an expert of the American People. Vidal wasn’t born rich but he had rich connections, and he knew the ins-and-outs of how the elites thought and operated. He has no illusions about how devious and nasty they could be. But he knew nothing about the people. They were a mere abstraction for him, and he was pro-people in ideology without having any knowledge of them realistically. Also, being pro-people was an easy way for him to gain advantage credits since he wasn’t born with lots of money like others in the rich class. It’s like the Tom character in METROPOLITAN. He is born into elite class culturally but lacks the means financially. So, his crutch is ‘socialism’.

    I think Hedges is the same way. He attended elite schools with kids with far more money and connections. He watched them with envy and resentment. He knows their world, and he finds people like George W. Bush just awful: entitled, spoiled, and shallow. So far so good. But he has no real understanding of people since his formative experiences were with the rich. Later in life, surely he went to poor towns and troubled nations and reported on problems. But he always saw that reality through the formative prism of ‘corrupt elite vs everyone else’, and his sense of ennoblement is premised on self-image as champion of the suffering oppressed masses.

    But real folks like us, who’ve had contact with the underclass all our lives, have no illusions about the People. They are as corrupt, if not more so, than the elites. It’s just that they don’t have the power or means to rob tons via Wall Street or cook up BS to invade other nations.

    Now, religions are useful in this sense. The concept of sin says moral corruption is in all our hearts. Sure, the rich and powerful can exploit religion as ‘opiate for the masses’, but if used properly, religions or moral philosophy can be a sobering medicine for the people. Unlike leftist ideology that says, “bring down the evil elites, and we will have kingdom of heaven on earth”, religions teach that Sin is in the hearts of each and every person. Each of us, rich or poor, have the seven deadly sins that make us eat too much, covet too much, get ass tattoos, refer to women as ‘cu*buckets’, or stare into the mirror all day with fake eyelashes and lipsticks. We are our own worst enemies. Look at rappers in ghetto. They be yapping about how the white man got all the goodies, but whenever some rappers makes some money, all he cares about gold bling, lotsa ho’s, mansions and swimming pools, vanity, and materialism like Tony Montana of Scarface.

    When Jesus was tempted by Satan, He owned nothing. Yet, He felt the temptation of wealth and power even in His poverty-stricken state. In other words, rich or poor, our hearts are tempted by same sins. NO wonder that whenever a revolution heralds a new era, the new boss is hardly better than the old boss. So, it’s not just about good poor folks vs bad rich folks. It is about moral corruption in the heart of anyone.

    The problem with Hedgian ideology is ALL THE BLAME is placed on elites and capitalist. Yes, they do a lot of bad things.

    But the people must learn to realize that their own hearts are tempted by rot, evil, and wickedness. Getting an ass tattoo may not blow up the world, but it is trashy. It is an act of perversity, narcissism(of the most twisted kind as what is beautiful about a picture of a skull on one’s ass?), stupidity, infantility.

    So, if poor folks don’t wanted to be exploited and manipulated by scum suckers like Jerry Springer and Hollywood and others, they need to wake up and grow up and etc.

    But Hedges just sees the people as victims without agency. And the ONLY kind of agency he believes in is the politics of demento rage that does no good. He supports nonsense movements like BLM that is founded on lies.

    In fact, Blacks are dying because too many blacks are nuts with guns. Black problem is that too many blacks holler ‘Black Lives Matter’ from one side of the mouth while hollering ‘Die Ni**a Die’ from the other side of the mouth as they blaze away with their guns in crazy gang wars.

    “The “ALT-RIGHT” movement is a violent reaction to the excesses of LIBERALISM. It places a favorable emphasis on ultra-nationalism, white supremacism, Islamophobia, antifeminism, homophobia, antisemitism, ethno-nationalism, right-wing populism, nativism, traditionalism and reactionism.”

    I don’t think you are understanding the real appeal of Alt Right. True, Alt Right has certain ideological leanings. But its real appeal is lack of PC and lack of dog-whistling.

    Outside Alt Right, it’s all PC or dog-whistling.

    Gentrification, we know, is really about pushing blacks out of cities.

    We know about the Wall Around Hyde Park. It’s all about race — blacks are stronger and more aggressive, therefore more thuggish — , but Libs pretend otherwise.

    http://uchicagogate.com/2014/06/02/a-wall-around-hyde-park/

    When Jews denounce ‘white supremacism’, they really mean white identity is obstacle to whites supporting Jewish Supremacism.

    We know ‘rape culture’ is all about driving a wedge between unity of white men and white women. After all, top rapists are blacks, not white men, but ‘rape culture’ hysteria is always about white males raping women. Rape culture freaks out about Haven Monahans like BIRTH OF A NATION freaked out about black rapists(who were more likely).

    Neocons, Libs, traditional Conservatives, Christian Libs and Cons, Mormons, the Left, the Far Left, blacks, and etc. are all full of PC, hypocrisy, and dog-whistling. Regardless of their position, they are not capable of carrying out a HONEST conversation about identity and interests. The so-called ‘Left’ and non-whites resort to same old same old KKKrazy Glue and pretend whites or white males are responsible for all problems.

    And Cons and Libertarians pretend ‘liberty’ and ‘constitution’ are panacea for everything.

    Behind all such talk are issues of race and ethnic interests. But they pretend otherwise.

    But Alt Right is willing to speak honestly and put everything on the table. It doesn’t dogwhistle about race or Jews because it wants an honest debate.

    This is where Alt Right is different from Trump. When Trump says ‘globalists’, he could be meaning ‘Jewish elites’… but then, Stephen Miller his speechwriter is Jewish, so maybe not. Or, maybe Miller is paradoxically trying to appropriate ‘antisemitism’ to make it pro-semitic. Have Trump talk like a dog-whistling ‘antisemite’ while supporting Israel and bashing Muslims. Thus, talk of ‘globalism’ goes from hostility toward Jews to support of Jews.

    But Alt Right is different cuz it talks about race and ethnicity and different interests.

    And it scoffs at all taboos on the matter.

    By the way, I don’t think Alt Right had much to do with Trump’s success. Most Trump voters never heard of Spencer or Alt Right. They were voting on the basis of “it’s the economy, stupid”. Also, they are not asking for pro-white policies that favor whites over others. They are just asking for policies that aren’t anti-white and esp not anti-white-working-class.

    Alt Right votes for Trump was what? Maybe 5% if that. I think less. Alt Right got a boost because the media wanted to smear Trump via association, but it only made Alt Right look funny and trollish cuz they played with frog memes.

    —–The “ALT-RIGHT” movement is a violent reaction to the excesses of LIBERALISM.—–

    I think the Dems made a big mistake in going with Obama in this sense.

    While Obama was no hardcore lefty socialist, he had ties with people like Bill Ayers and Wright. He also appointed a woman who claimed to admire Mao(though she was dropped from the nomination).

    For American Politics to work, the Center-Right must reject the far right, and the Center-Left must reject the far left. Center-Right must favor Center-Left over the far right, and the Center-Left must favor Center-Right over the far left.

    And I think ‘anti-nazi’ conservatives and ‘anti-communist’ liberals got along during the Cold War.

    But Obama’s ties to loathsome Wright was too close. And what was he doing with Ayers, a total shi*head?

    When the media and Libs said that doesn’t matter, they lost their moral justification to attack the Right of shmoozing up to the ‘far right’.

    If it was a-okay for Obama to pal around Ayers and Wright, then it’s okay for Trump to pal around ‘alt right’ types, even though, to be sure, Trump has no direct connection to any ‘far right’ figure. Unlike Obama who really was close to Wright and palled around with Ayers, Trump never golfed with David Duke. Not even with Pat Buchanan.

    But because Alt Right supported Trump and because Bannon has loose ties with Alt Right, people are freaking out over Trump’s ties to extremism.

    But it’s too late for the media and progs to bitch. They said they didn’t pursue the Wright-Ayers thing cuz it had ‘no traction’. Well, it had no traction because PC and media normalized radicalism on the left and vilified extremism only on the right.

    Chicken’s coming home to roost. Lib media shrugged off the problems of Obama’s associations and, if anything, worked with PC to suppress free speech and real debate.

    So, it is disingenuous for them to freak out about Trump’s extreme associations and authoritarian ways(when PC has been the main driver of shutting down honest discussion). But in fact, Trump has no direct connection to any extremist organization… except for AIPAC, the vehicle for Zionist supremacism over Palestinians.

    Another thing. The media look foolish mocking what they see as Trump’s cult of personality, but they paved the way with their celebrity mania over Obama.

    Media didn’t cover Obama. They anointed him as The One, the messiah, the messenger of ‘hope and change’. Evan Thomas said he is ‘sort of god’.

    http://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/kyle-drennen/2009/06/05/newsweeks-evan-thomas-obama-sort-god

    And when Obama won the presidency, the gushing drivel from the media was comparable to North Korean adulation of the Great Leader.

    https://www.mrc.org/biasalerts/new-time-editor-nancy-gibbs-has-lengthy-record-liberal-goo

    “Some princes are born in palaces. Some are born in mangers. But a few are born in the imagination, out of scraps of history and hope….Barack Hussein Obama did not win because of the color of his skin. Nor did he win in spite of it. He won because at a very dangerous moment in the life of a still young country, more people than have ever spoken before came together to try to save it. And that was a victory all its own.”

    – Time’s Nancy Gibbs in the November 17, 2008 cover story.

    When American politics turns into such mindless celebrity mania and fawning adoration of The Leader, is it any surprise that Trump took it the next step as the ‘god emperor’?

    But Trump is refreshing because his cult is a kind of stunt, circus, and joke.

    It’s not earnest and naive like the gushing worship of Prince Obama.

    The Cult of Trump comes in with a built-in cynicism of the media, the celebrity enterprise, and of Trump himself.

    Twitter suspends alt-right accounts

    http://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/news/2016/11/15/twitter-suspends-alt-right-accounts/93943194/

    Heidi Beirich, spokeswoman for the Southern Poverty Law Center, told USA TODAY that the center had asked Twitter to remove more than 100 accounts of white supremacists who violated Twitter’s terms of service. She also pointed to two alt-right accounts that had been verified by Twitter, including Spencer’s.

    Twitter says it verifies an account by giving it a blue check mark when “it is determined to be an account of public interest.” Twitter launched the feature in 2009 after celebrities complained about people impersonating them on the social media service.

    “We are encouraged by the decisions taken by Twitter. Now it is a matter of whether they are carried out,” Beirich said. “Obviously, well-known white supremacists violate these terms of service and we are glad it appears that Twitter has chosen to step up on these issues.”

    • In contrast, what you’ll NEVER see:
      “Obviously, well-known, violent BLM supremacists violate these terms of service and we are glad it appears that Twitter has chosen to step up on these issues.”
