Sorry to break the bad news, but 'anti-racism' is actually racist

[European blood]

Yesterday, after I wrote that “the EU, multiculturalism, the Equalities Act, anti-racism, hate crimes, bastardised human rights, Marx, Marxist feminism, Marcuse and Gramsci” all belong in history’s dustbin, lots of people screamed: “If you’re anti-anti-racism that means you’re pro-racism!”

So I thought I’d help your deprogramming with a little explanation.

“Anti-racism” is not the same as being opposed to racism; rather it is the name sometimes given to a particular authoritarian view of what racism is, and how it can be combated.

The conventional definition of racism is the belief that “race” (however one defines that) is a primary or significant cause of differences between men; that some of these races are superior to others; and that it is acceptable to discriminate on grounds of race, or to behave unpleasantly to someone because of their race. The term dates to the 1930s, although “racialist” and “racialism” go back to the Edwardian period.

“Anti-racism” means something altogether different, and is best explained by the Civitas book Racist Murder and Pressure Group Politics, an account of the Salem-like events that gripped Britain in the 1990s. The authors cite the example of the Central Council for Education and Training in Social Work (CCETSW), which in 1991 set out the implementation of its new Diploma in Social Work.

The first tenet was "the self-evident truth" that "racism is endemic in the values, attitudes and structures of British society".

The training manual then stated "steps need to be taken to promote permeation of all aspects of the curriculum by an anti-racist analysis". All "racist materials" had to be withdrawn from the syllabus and CCETSW would decide what was racist.

In the rules there would be no freedom of speech for opinions that can be constructed as "racist" or favourable to "racism", and "anti-racist practice requires the adoption of explicit values". The first value is that individual problems have roots in "political structures" and "not in individual or cultural pathology". (In other words, if different groups have different outcomes in terms of education or crime levels, it is all the fault of British racism, not of individuals).

A second value is that racial oppression and discrimination are everywhere to be found in British society, even when invisible. In other words, impossible to disprove!

This is “anti-racism”, and it is heavily influenced by a Marxist interpretation of race. Oliver Cox's 1948 work Class, Caste and Race presents the idea that race originates in "a practical exploitative relationship" used to justify the exploitation of one group by another as part of capitalism.

Racism is created to justify imperialism, exploitation, and scapegoating when things go wrong, and to divide the population to prevent class consciousness from forming.

Racism, therefore, is a product of western, European society, which is why those schooled in British academia are so bad at seeing racism when it is committed by non-whites, because only whites can really be racist.

This, itself, is a racist idea, because it views only whites as being fully sentient actors capable of committing right and wrong, when of course racism, like all human feelings and failings, is universal.

So if you consider yourself an "anti-racist", you are, in fact, a racist.

Most anti-racists will scream that racists are culturally distinctive, have similar characteristics and limitations within society, and are an inferior breed of people who (to the more extreme) deserve to be deported or killed.

And to them I am the racist, because I believe that there exists a whole world of culturally distinctive populations, each with similar characteristics and limitations within a society, but the difference is I don't wish to remove them from their homelands or see them extinguish their distinct position on this earth. All I ask is I have a right as one of those many populations the chance to exist amongst my own.

There is no 'anti-racist' or 'racist', there is only two sides who hate each other.

I got temp banned from an MBTI forum because I posted an article in the current events section about the group of Muslim women in England who beat a white woman randomly on the street and managed to walk away from it with a mere slap on the wrist and no jail time, then proceeded to debate with people on my views about anti-white trends in Western liberal thought, as well as expressing my views on European nationalism entirely on-topic in relevant threads related to the issue.

I even went out of my way to explain myself, but some forumers felt perfectly justified calling me a racist and a fascist for suggesting that being anti-white and pro-Islam isn't as wonderful as they've been brainwashed to think it is.

I was given a month-long ban for "hate speech and trolling" though 98% of my posts on the forum have absolutely nothing to do with my political views, and are about MBTI and arts and entertainment and cooking, etc.

Apparently expressing anything other than the Western liberal "anti-racist" regime is "hate speech" and "trolling."

I thought a troll was someone who had nothing worthwhile to contribute and just baited people to get a reaction.

My posts about anti-white, pro-Muslim trends were sincere, and made up only a small percentage of my total posts on the forum. I believe I was judged unfairly for doing nothing more than having an unpopular opinion.
