Letter to The Editor - demands for more, leading to an inexorable slide towards the division of the continent into two nations

to THE AUSTRALIAN
     The current state of ‘moves towards indigenous constitutional recognition’ has not ‘reached a damaging impasse’  (‘Angry Pearson turns on Turnbull’, 6/11).  Rather, it has been fruitfully clarified by the Government’s sensible and well argued rejection of the ‘voice to Parliament’ and then by the dogmatic and intemperate responses of those disappointed by the result, including Noel Pearson.
     Greg Sheridan summed up the situation well  (‘Just being Australian is good enough for us all’, 2/11).  Opponents of constitutional recognition have proved justified in their fears that there would be ‘no end point to the process’, since any concession would be followed by demands for more, leading to an inexorable slide towards the division of the continent into two nations.

Letter to The Editor - a leader bequeathed by a process rich in tradition and sanctified by religion

to THE AGE
     There have been monarchies and republics for thousands of years, so neither model is more ‘anachronistic’ than the other (‘Symbolism matters: why I’m a staunch republican’, 6/11). Nor is it true that our monarchs have ruled ‘through no other merit than birth’; they had good genetic endowments and long periods of training to prepare them for their arduous responsibilities.
     Then again, Her Majesty the Queen is not accurately described as an ‘unelected foreign monarch.’  She shares her ethnicity with most of us; she is constitutionally an Australian as well as a Briton; and she has been chosen (‘elected’) by a respected system, even if it is not by the kind we use to change our governments.
     I wonder why Dan Crowley is so enamoured of having a national president subservient to popular whims and vested financial interests, rather than a leader bequeathed by a process rich in tradition and sanctified by religion.

The Culture of Civil War By Michael Ferguson

     In a recent post Brett Stevens waded into controversy, attacking both ethnic and racial diversity, sacred cows of our age:

“In short: “At this point it has dawned on most in the modern West that diversity causes civilizations to decompose from within through internal ethnic conflicts, race guilt and the massive costs of a permanent underclass.

More Fake News By Peter Ewer

Another Day, Another Terrorist Attack By Paul Walker

     As Trump noted, the terrorist, who was a lucky winner in the Green Card lottery, brought in another 23 people, as part of his chain migration. This diversity lottery is just another means of diluting America.  Better yet, in the absurdist stakes, the mosque where the mass murder had worshipped had been under police surveillance but this was dismantled on the grounds of anti-racism and political correctness:

No More Pepes Out of Pepe By Ian Wilson LL.B

      Pepe the frog once was an Alt Right meme, used to troll and upset the Left.  Pepe certainly got under the nose of  Hillary Clinton during the US election.  But, all humorous things come to an end in a world without smiles, as the creator of the meme is now asserting his IP rights.  This means that those who have used the meme on say book covers, such as Andrew Fraser in Dissident Dispatches, will have to cease using the artwork.  That entails that books with Pepe on the cover will have to be withdrawn, and I think that some have been.

     I could see this coming a mile away.  Taking some IP and using it for non-Left, anti-system purposes, will always leave open the immediate remedy of IP violation.  So, the Alt Right should stop being lazy and do some work getting new memes.  How about a big white fluffy rabbit?  Or, at the other end of the spectrum, a fat hog, or a mangy rat?  The animal kingdom offers enormous diversity for political satire, so the young lads need to get creative, or get sued:

     Snoop Dogg album cover:

continues his meme of a dead Trump.  It is all rather amazing since Obama sent the secret service to hound down even kids making jokes about his assassination, but here it is openly celebrated as a commercial enterprise:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassination_threats_against_Barack_Obama

     It just goes to show how cucked the “Rump” presidency is.  I imagine that each day he survives without being impeached must be crossed of his calendar as a victory.  As Trump would say: “Sad.”

Uncle Len Embraces His Inner Diversity By Uncle Len, Hidden Master of the Multicult

     Sunday was some sort of multicultural diversity day in the mall, with people from all races doing wonderful colourful things.  How drab Anglo-Saxon culture is/was, and how wonderful that migration has finally brought civilisation to this land, which did not exist before 1946.  Oh, it did exist before British colonisation, which was truly evil, bringing white privilege to this land, which migrants helped overcome because they are fantastic.  Not like my kind. 

     The good thing though is that highly educated university types are exposing White privilege, such as seen in the creation of mathematics, whatever that is:

Letter to The Editor - reconciliation needs no tampering with the Constitution

to SUNDAY AGE
     The Government is right to have rejected the Uluru Statement from the Heart’s recommendation for a constitutionally enshrined ‘indigenous Voice to Parliament’ (‘Coalition contempt for our first peoples’, 5/11).  The proposal is fundamentally inequitable and endangers the integrity of the nation.
     A distinction needs to be made between ‘the Aboriginal people’ (meaning those of the past, the present and the future) and living Australians who have some or whole Aboriginal ancestry.  No one has dispossessed anyone in the latter group; nor are they the only indigenous Australians.  As for the dispossession of ‘the Aboriginal people’, it is a fact of history that no-one can undo in any way.  No one living today can justifiably be blamed for it.
    There is widespread goodwill towards contemporary Aboriginals, and Aboriginal culture and history are rightly recognized and celebrated throughout the land.  Thus reconciliation needs no tampering with the Constitution.

Letter to The Editor - It can be at the same time both an Aboriginal sacred place and a shrine for all

to THE AGE
     There are good arguments both for and against allowing people to climb Uluru (Letters 4/11). The practice of making pilgrimage to sacred mountains and climbing them is found all around the world; but such must not be confused with mere tourist sight-seeing.  On the other hand, there are also traditions of sacred places which are taboo or not to be approached by ordinary folk - such as the Holy of Holies (only entered by the high priest) or the Kaaba (only entered by Muslims).  These places act as physical testimonies of the divine mystery.
     In the present case, abiding by the wishes of the current owners or guardians of Uluru may be one good way of affording recognition of our ‘first peoples’, their culture and history, which does not inequitably jeopardise the rights and welfare of others.  We can still walk around it and honour its beauty and sanctity from ground level.  It can be at the same time both an Aboriginal sacred place and a shrine for all.

Letter to The Editor - the profound challenge Christianity faces to recover from its many past mistakes

to THE AUSTRALIAN
     Dyson Heydon rightly states (‘Faith’s implacable enemies’, 4-5/11) that religion ‘looks for windows into another world.’  He is on less safe ground in claiming that Jesus ‘taught that all human beings were equal before God, and all could enter the kingdom of God.’  Much of the Gospel teaching asserts that the way to the kingdom is difficult and that few are able to find it. This accords with the wisdom of the other great sacred traditions, all of which differentiate between the life of piety (open to all people) and the way of gnosis or attainment (obtainable only by a few).
     Why is it important to keep before human communities an awareness that there is a mysterious ‘other world’ of which saints and sages bear strange witness? It seems that from that world flows an ineffable quality - truth - which cannot be summed up or defined in any words or logical propositions, but which is essential for the continual renewing of society and the political order.  Old-fashioned Christianity, such as Heydon expounds, has been steadily losing its power to open those windows.  Damning the intolerance of atheistic elites is easy but does not confront the profound challenge Christianity faces to recover from its many past mistakes.

Letter to The Editor - Adequate recognition can be achieved without any tampering with the Constitution

to THE AUSTRALIAN
     How amazing to learn that a law professor was able to persuade some netball parents in five minutes that the indigenous ‘voice’ to Parliament should be supported (‘Pollies, not people, the real obstacle’, 3/11)! How could the rest of us not see that it’s all so simple? It’s odd, however, that nowhere in Rosalind Dixon’s statement can we find a single reasoned argument justifying the proposed change.
     By contrast, Simon Breheny (‘Decision on “indigenous voice” a big win for liberal democracy’) gives us at least six such arguments to justify the Government’s decision. The most important of these is that any ‘advisory’ voice does not need to be constitutionally enshrined. Adequate recognition can be achieved without any tampering with the Constitution.

Letter to The Editor - the Copernican revolution demanded a change in cosmological understanding

to THE AUSTRALIAN
     Tony Abbott sees a main cause of ‘our civilisational self-doubt and the collapse of cultural self-confidence’ as being a ‘decline in belief’ (‘New conservative activists may be key to defending our fragile rights’, 2/11). Yes and no. If he means a loss of conviction in the reality of the transcendental, he is right. However, if he means a failure of belief in ‘orthodox’ theology, he is wrong.
     The Western world has reached a turning point from which there can be no going back. ‘Belief’ that Christianity is the only way to salvation, buttressed by false claims about the authority of ‘the Church’ or the authority of the Bible, must be revised, just as the Copernican revolution demanded a change in cosmological understanding.

“Zero Emissions” will Test the Convictions of Canberrans by Viv Forbes

     Canberra with its “zero emissions” target yearns to be Australia’s greenest address. 
Good. Let’s use them as a full-blown test of “zero emissions” before we all jump over that cliff.

     Canberra passes thousands of laws for us. If their zero emissions dream is fair dinkum, they need to pass just three laws for themselves.

The Uselessness of Academic Research By James Reed

“Spend the years of learning squandering
Courage for the years of wandering
Through a world politely turning
From the loutishness of learning.”
Samuel Beckett, “Gnome” in Dublin Magazine Vol. 9 (1934), p. 8

     More on my “close the universities” theme. If academic research was achieving anything at all, even if most of it is false:
http://journals.plos.org/plosmedicine/article?id=10.1371/journal.pmed.0020124
then, at an absolute minimum, the articles should be read by the peer community.

Australia Should have had Nuclear weapons Back in 1946 By James Reed

     Fabian socialists in the Labor Party began the dismantling of the White Australia Policy in 1946, with a massive non-British immigration programme, under the guise of populate or perish. Even though nuclear weapons existed, and Australia cooperated with the British in the development of their nuclear weapons, Australia opted for migrants.

     Even back then, no doubt the elites knew that this would lead to Australia ultimately becoming Asian, but as good globalists, they just did what their masters told them. From what I can ascertain, opposition to this program was minimal because freedom movement types were too concerned about the communist threat, even though Dr Sutton had shown that it too was part of the plan. Consequently, Australia slid down the road to Asia, and who knows what else.

The Trolley Problem By Chris Knight

     There is a “problem” in academic ethics called the  “trolley problem,” which involves your choice of saving an innocent child tied to the railway track by the villain, by diverting the train and killing a fat man, tied to another track. The problem can be changed to cause difficulties for whatever course of action one takes.

     Recently this problem received debate in Alt Right circles, over the abortion issue: would you save say, 10,000 frozen embryos over the life of one child?

Global Demographics and White Survival By Dr Peter J. White

     American Renaissance, a journal which presumably defends White interests, even though its core writer Jared Taylor  champions the East Asian IQ superiority theory “they are just so much smarter than us,” Taylor has said, in so many words. I would be cautious about following too closely someone who has embraced a position open to controversy and challenge, even within mainstream psychology, let alone once one begins conceptually deconstructing IQ, as I have done in many articles at this site, which you can follow via our search engine. As far as I am aware, Taylor has never done this sort of fundamental investigation of the IQ issue, but simply quotes some cherry-picked standard papers.

     I will comment here on his article dealing with the demographic threats that Whites face:
