That doesn't fly, and it never has since the concept of 'genocide' was invented.<br /><br />The group is what it is. It's recognized by those targeting it. It's being demonized, disadvantaged legally, and deprived of its habitat on a massive scale.<br /><br />If governments were doing to a species like dingos what is being done to whites, it would be perfectly obvious that this is a series of actions calculated to end the breed: flooding its territory with competing animals, breeding interference (disruption of family life), handicapping it in competition for resources and so on. Some of these things might not be hostile in themselves, but the sum of them clearly is.<br /><br />What's happening is like <i>integrated pest control</i>, with whites being treated as a noxious species.<br /><br />If a group is clearly identifiable and possible to be targeted, and it is in fact being identified, demonized, disadvantaged, displaced and pushed out of existence, by measures that would be regarded as a threat to the breed without debate <i>except that academia is on board with getting rid of this breed</i>, then there is a genocide going on, and there is no excuse for it.Daybreakernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6832901.post-78694662660889012162013-01-27T18:27:16.401+11:002013-01-27T18:27:16.401+11:00Also

It's a pretty useless general label too because the meaning of 'white' has shifted several times in the last few decades; as a recent example observe the coverage of the 2012 US Federal election. It was apparently a case of the 'white'-based Republicans losing out to the 'ethnic'-based Democrats. In fact the 'white' base of the Republican party including substantial numbers of people who, in previous generations, would have been considered 'ethnic' too - people from eastern European backgrounds, etc. TimThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10333303180015967125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6832901.post-39552508033130509172013-01-27T17:14:26.639+11:002013-01-27T17:14:26.639+11:00It's hard to talk about official national iden...It's hard to talk about official national identity navel-gazing in white countries in the 21st century without talking about legally mandatory anti-racism, multiculturalism and so on.<br /><br />This is the biggest possible question for a nation: who gets to be part of that nation, and defines it, and who gets to be history, as in "swept into the ash-heap of".<br /><br />The views supported pervasively by white governments in this century are radically at odds with the interests of white populations, and they are often unpopular. The governments, supported by anti-white universities and media, go ahead anyway, which makes the rationales used to promote these radical, unpopular policies central to the (so far one-sided) national identity discussion.<br /><br />Calling attention to the realities that underlie political rhetoric is not misleading or simplistic, and trying to evade the massive loss of fitness, in a Darwinian sense, suffered by populations whose governments go in for genocidal levels of mass immigration and hostile cultural favoritism is not sophisticated or enlightened.Daybreakernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6832901.post-39263944732494284162013-01-27T17:09:57.612+11:002013-01-27T17:09:57.612+11:00Also about simplicity pointing out the inherent ev...Also about <i>simplicity</i> pointing out the inherent evil in suppressing and erasing ethnic identity is simple the crime itself is not simplistic.<br />The crime of erasing ethnicities has historic precedent and is firmly in the court of discussions about nations and politics.<br /><br />To say it is off limits.

Australia was built by one race and a very narrow range of closely related cultures that blended quickly into one. White Australia was monocultural; that's why the multiculturalists were all about importing radical racial and cultural diversity. It wasn't already there.<br /><br />And the people who built the country with <i>enormous</i> effort did not build it so that it could be inherited by anybody from around the world, while their own descendants were dispossessed and ultimately genocided by mass immigration and forced integration and assimilation.<br /><br />What's happening is a total betrayal of the founders.<br /><br />The preamble added:<br /><br />"Australia’s democratic and federal system of government exists under law to preserve and protect all Australians in an equal dignity which may never be infringed by prejudice or fashion or ideology nor invoked against achievement."<br /><br />That would have been the sentence making anti-racism, which is code for anti-white-ism, constitutionally mandated.<br /><br />However bad the Labor Party is, the Liberal Party is also very guilty.Daybreakernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6832901.post-10392182415509833122013-01-27T10:12:45.941+11:002013-01-27T10:12:45.941+11:00Has the 21st century gone in a collective time war...Has the 21st century gone in a collective time warp back to the Australian 1980s? Turnbull's screed reads very much like the sort of stuff about national identity I grew up on. I remember being taught about how Australia was egalitarian, we believed in a fair go, bla bla bla, at school - the kind of shallow Hawke-Labor inspired education in patriotism. <br /><br />National identity - particularly the sort of national identity that requires the endless reassertion of certain terms ('egalitarian', 'fair go', 'diverse', 'vibrant', and not much else) - isn't something I care much about at all. How is endless introspection about national identity different from endless introspection about self-identity? It sounds like civic narcissism. <br /><br />Is it just because we're under a Labor Government that we're hearing screeds like this?
