A Brief History of the 80s AIDS Pandemic…Modified For Current Year Sensibilities

AIDS Day: See the 1980s Posters That Raised Awareness | Time

By Colby Malsbury

Do you want to be woke? Sure, we all do. One cannot attain to this eminent domain without first being familiar with one of the epoch’s great genocides – the demise via HIV of a handful of outgoing ebullient types not too discriminating as to where they ground their gears forty years ago. But how can Gen-Z ever hope to relate to the lessons learned then? After all, the 80s was a notoriously troglodyte time, when Eddie Murphy and other notable racists held the zeitgeist in thrall, and refrigerators contained Freon, and people smoked, and all kinds of things. Perhaps it’s time we altered the historiography just a wee bit for modern comprehension. Pulping encyclopedias is a cathartic experience. read more

How Should Conservative Blacks Respond to Research on Racial Differences?

7 Unwritten Rules Of A Black Family Thanksgiving – 100.3

By Davis Carlton

Recently Charles Murray has published a new book called Facing Reality: Two Truths about Race in America, and it is causing a bit of a stir while still largely being ignored. In this book Murray lays out a case for racial differences in intelligence and crime rates. Murray’s work builds upon the information provided by many other race realists, and provides opportunities for new discussions about what this data implies for race relations in America. Unsurprisingly black commentators haven’t spoken favorably about Murray’s research, even going so far as to question why someone would be so interested in doing this research in the first place. read more

Spare Us Any More Buffoons Pretending To Be In-Your-Face Confrontational ‘Conservatives’, Please

Tensions build in Toronto ahead of public debate against anti-masker Chris Sky

By Colby Malsbury

Many moons ago, I watched a gormy little 1970s movie called Stunt Rock.

The plot? Re-read the title, bro. That’s the plot. A stuntman plies his trade in Hollywood, engaging in many of the fads of the era (dig the hang-gliding scenes!) Because he’s established his awesome bonafides, he is allowed to hang around in his off hours with the rock group Sorcery, a banal combo that makes the Bay City Rollers look like Zeppelin. Their entire schtick is featuring a dude in a cheeseball Merlin costume onstage who causes fireballs to explode every time he waves his arms, because Lord of the Rings and Frank Frazetta were also yuge in the 70s. The entire movie consists of intercutting between Stunty’s stunts and Sorcery’s sorry excuses for prog-metal rock numbers. At the end, Stunty has to come cascading down on a zipline for some reason right into the midst of a Sorcery concert and Merlin really goes apespit hurling fireballs around on account of such audacity. Brilliant stuff. A veritable masterpiece. read more

False Dichotomies: Kinism, Wokeness, and Indifferentism

WAR ON WORDS: Why Race Is NOT A Social Construct | IDEAS ON IDEAS

By Davis Carlton

The mainstream conservative response amidst the onslaught of “wokeness” now plaguing the West has been to call out liberals for their supposed hypocrisy on race or betraying the “dream” of their beloved Martin Luther King. Conservatives are aiming at preserving the fragile and unsteady status quo of the late twentieth century following the Civil Rights revolution which sought to detach America’s identity from her past rooted in European colonization of North America. The idea defended by most conservatives and Christians is that race is unimportant and shouldn’t matter. When conservatives defend principles of liberalism that are a mere few decades old, they vindicate R.L. Dabney’s powerful assessment of modern conservatives as “a party which never conserves anything. Its history has been that it demurs to each aggression of the progressive party, and aims to save its credit by a respectable amount of growling, but always acquiesces at last in the innovation. What was the resisted novelty of yesterday is to-day one of the accepted principles of conservatism.” read more

Exclusive: Our Interview With a Christian Proponent of Critical Race Theory

Hipster Youth Pastor Blank Template - Imgflip

By Colby Malsbury

Tribal Theocrat has been the beneficiary of white privilege for far too long now. After all, we couldn’t produce these articles without laptops and electricity, and that’s grotesquely unfair to those Wakandans living in the nether regions of Chad. To atone, we have agreed to be coerced into interviewing the charming Declan Whiteout (preferred pronouns to be released to us as soon as our funds are deposited in his account), recent graduate of Bayard Rustin Seminary and a self-described conservative, on the inerrancy, irrefutability, and just plain goodness of Critical Race Theory. Hey, it was either this or the rack. read more

The Racial Correlation Between Marxism and the Current Year Church

By Francis Samuels

One pursuit that has always been consistent as found among the Revolutionary guild is the dream of eliminating distinctions among races, ethnicities, and peoples.

This is not merely my opinion.

In a moment I will provide an avalanche of quotes that will prove this to be the case.

What I want to do now is tee these quotes up by pointing out the reality that it is the clergy and the church now who are hot in pursuit of the same thing. It is a preponderance in the clergy who are telling us that God loves inter-racial marriage and there is nothing in the slightest wrong with that. Indeed, it is to be preferred in order to break down preexisting barriers. Churches now that are people-group integrated are churches that are automatically superior to churches that are not people-group integrated. read more

Popular Entertainment as an Inversion of Reality: A Review of Amazon’s “Them”

By Davis Carlton

I remember watching the movie Galaxy Quest when I was younger. The basic plot is that an alien race sends a representative to recruit the aging actors of an old space sci-fi television show to help them fend off an attack from an aggressive reptilian alien species. The aliens who are asking for help do so by mistaking the old television show for “historical documents” that chronicle actual history and the actors for real life combat veterans and heroes. Today, the consumers of streaming content don’t seem to have any more discernment than the naïve alien race featured in Galaxy Quest. Enter the new series available on Amazon Prime called Them, purportedly about the dystopian horror that was the black experience in 1950s America. read more

When the Right Finally Started to Make Inroads…and Then Promptly Blew It

Atlanta Unites with Israel - Atlanta Jewish Times

By Colby Malsbury

And things had been going so well.

The blatant usurpation of the US presidency by the forces boosting the first-ever Catholic Veep, combined with the continual metastasizing of the Covid LARP, seemed to light a large enough fire under the neo-Right’s sizable posterior for it to finally arise from its Barca-Lounger and get mad.

And their targets were big enough and juicy enough that a wide-eyed freshman seminary student inexplicably drafted into the Marine Corps could hit them his first day on the rifle range. read more

This Won’t End Well

Racial Unrest Impedes U.S. Bid to Counter China in Africa - Bloomberg

By Davis Carlton

I’ve gone on record arguing that racial segregation is a practical solution to the increasingly hostile nature of race relations in the Western world. The past several months certainly haven’t changed this belief as the specter of all out violence continues to loom. The George Floyd/Derek Chauvin verdict managed to stay black violence at the expense of justice…at least justice as understood in the Anglo-Saxon Christian common law tradition. Calls from black California Congresswoman Maxine Waters for “confrontation” directed at BLM activists with a well-documented history of violence were blatant threats aimed at jurors and the city to render the “right” verdict. The threatening nature of Waters’ rhetoric was even noted by Judge Peter Cahill in the Floyd/Chauvin trial as a potential pretext for granting Chauvin a new trial. Add to this that one of the black jurors has been discovered to have participated in a BLM protest prior to the trial and who was clearly prejudiced (in the proper legal sense of the term) against Chauvin from the beginning. read more

Clickbait Conspiracy: Or, the Death of Discernment Among the Right

Dangling this” drip torture, or the “poor man's clickbait” | Multidisciplinary Reflectives

By Colby Malsbury

Things have been understandably quite tense around Pastor James Coates’s GraceLife Church, as reported here recently.

So it was with a mixture of horror and elation that conservatives read about a typical example of state overreach in which two hundred Royal Canadian Mounted Thugs attempted to strong-arm the church service being held outside the fenced-off church grounds on Sunday, April 11, moving in en masse to break up the gathering with brute force. Enraged congregants, pushed to the very limit by nwo diktats, stormed the fence and began breaking it up, just like East Berliners venting their frustrations on their anything-but-beloved Wall in 1989. Details remained sketchy, but no doubt massive arrests were made and onerous prison sentences were meted out to the participants. read more
