From The Nation: Open Borders Must Be Part of Any Response to the Climate Crisis The alternative is the death of millions and a world fractured by nationalism.By Ben Ehrenreich YESTERDAY 8:40 AM Borders, like nations, present themselves as natural and eternal. They are neither, but movement is. Humans have been on the move for hundreds of thousands, perhaps even millions of years. Progressives,...

Europe’s Cultural Marxist newspapers are gloating that nationalists performed poorly in this week’s Danish Parliamentary elections: for example, “The big news of the election was that the DPP [Danish People’s Party] lost more than half its seats, decimating their influence and plunging the party into a crisis it might not survive”. [Europe, take note: in Denmark, the humanitarian left is on the rise, by Michael Strange, Guardian, June 7, 2019] The problem with this gloating: the victorious Social Democrats actually ran stole the DPP’s immigration patriotism issue. Also other, even tougher anti-immigration parties made gains.

It is certainly true that the Danish People’s Party did badly, declining from 21% of the vote at the last election to 8.7%. (Denmark has a Proportional Representation system). But this wasn’t as disastrous as opinion polls had predicted. The right wing “Blue Block” of parties, who tend to form government coalitions together, had been 10% behind in the polls for weeks, but, in the end, they were only about 2.5% behind. Also, the Danish People’s Party had been part of the government and there is a tendency in Denmark for junior government parties to be punished at the subsequent election.

Re: Kushner’s Plan Maybe Not DISASTROUS For Immigration Patriots, But Trump Should Go Back To RAISE Act Anyway  From: Fabrizio Evola [Email him] I occasionally watch Bill Maher on HBO to get an idea of how the other side views the big issues of the day.

New York Times token conservative columnist David Brooks [Tweet him]think it’s time for conservatives to stop fighting multiculturalism and embrace it. Otherwise, the GOP is doomed. [The Coming G.O.P. Apocalypse, by David Brooks, The New York Times, June 3, 2019]

Brooks argues young people are less white and love diversity and immigration. He laments that the GOP under Donald Trump opposes all these wonderful things. He believes the party should offer a “conservative way to embrace pluralism and diversity” to counter the Left’s negative multiculturalism.

According to Brooks, the Left’s multiculturalism says “blacks and whites will never really understand each other; racism is endemic; the American project is fatally flawed; American structures are so oppressive, the only option is to burn them down.”

In contrast, conservatives’ multiculturalism would be more “optimistic”—“We can communicate across difference; the American creed is the right recipe for a thick and respectful pluralism; American structures are basically sound and can be realistically reformed.”

Kumbaya!

This, allegedly, is Brooks’ grand vision for how Republicans can survive in a multiracial America. Rather than try to stem the demographic tide that will crush the GOP, he claims the party can ride it out by offering a politer liberal agenda.

In 2018, a record turnout of women, minorities and young added 40 House seats to Democratic ranks and made Nancy Pelosi speaker. This, we were told, is the new diversity coalition—women, people of color, millennials—that will take down The Donald in 2020. So, how has the Democratic field sorted itself out half a year later? According to the Real Clear Politics average of polls, two old white guys, ...

Back in March, I posted “PATRIOTS HAVE RIGHTS. THEY HAVE JUST NOT ORGANIZED TO DEFEND THEM—UNTIL NOW”, explaining how VDARE.com has been forced to enter the nightmare world of litigation because of the Totalitarian Left’s unprecedented Reign of Terror, enabled in large part by various complicit private corporations. I announced the launch of our Legal Defense Fund—many thanks to those patriots who donated (tax-deductibly!), and also to our lawyer readers who offered advice.

I recently updated readers on VDARE.com’s First Amendment suit against Colorado Springs Mayor John Suthers for his role in the 2017 cancellation of our projected conference there. Again, our lawyers expect this to go to trial, and quite possibly to the U.S. Supreme Court.

But now I want to discuss a narrower but equally important case: our complaint against the credit card processer PayPal for suddenly and arbitrarily cutting VDARE.com off from receiving donations, after a business relationship of some 12 years, in August 2017. Our Notice of Dispute, required by PayPal’s User Agreement, is here. [PDF]

PayPal has still not, despite our repeated requests, explained why it cut us off. Our Notice of Dispute documents our interactions with various puzzled PayPal lower-level employees who had obviously believed they worked for a politically impartial entity in a free country.

It appears they were wrong.

Whocares

New York City public school teachers recently revealed that they have been instructed to reject “objectivity,” “written documentation” and “perfectionism” by Schools Chancellor Richard Carranza, as part of his effort to “dismantle racism.” Carranza identified these values as tools of the “white-supremacy culture.”

Our cultural overlords are way ahead of Carranza. With lightning speed, we've abandoned old, hidebound, Anglo-Saxon facts-and-evidence standards in deference to new, fresh African folk tale standards. (According to J. Bekunuru Kubayanda, writing in the Afro-Hispanic Review, even Latin America and the Caribbean got their oral history traditions from Africa.)

Thus, for example, Gen. Robert E. Lee has been re-invented as a white genocidal lunatic. Meanwhile, actual tape-recorded evidence of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. engaging in sex orgies will not put a dent in his hero status.

Michael Korda, a lion of the New York literary set, published an admiring biography of Lee just five years ago, Clouds of Glory: The Life and Legend of Robert E. Lee. His book received a favorable review in the New York Times, which chirped that Korda portrayed Lee as a "master strategist" who was "physically fearless."

How can it be that the longtime editor-in-chief of Simon & Schuster and author of dozens of books—not to mention the New York Times itself—totally missed that Lee was a vicious racist, with no redeeming qualities whatsoever? Thank God Nikki Haley's parents emigrated here from India so she could set Korda straight on this country's history!
