Erectus Walks Amongst Us - Mindblowing book on race and evolution

I've just read this book in 3 days. The information contained in it kept me awake until 3am last night when I should have been resting for my first game for a new Sunday morning football team.

The introduction and preface of this book explains the author's intentions better than I can and includes an excellent description of the egalitarianism ideology and how it is has affected the world.

Most of us here have seen how it has affected society in many different ways for the worse, and the first mindblowing bit of information is how it has affected Science, specificially the British natural history museum.

In the early 20th century, It had a display of skulls from around the world, demonstrating human diversity. It was replaced by a poster of football fans with the caption 'We are all the same'. And later even that mockery of science was removed.

The book 'Culture of Critique' reviewed by Roosh describes the many ways in which Jewish and other scientists spread misinformation designed to support egalitarianism after WWII.

This has had devastating effects on anthropology, the study of humans. This is not a conspiracy theory. This is simply because even scientists cannot objectively see past their ideological biases.



The author has made the book available to reproduce freely and gives his reasons for that below. You can read the book here. Erectus Walks Amongst Us

Anyway here is the books preface and introduction.

Preface

Every person is a product of the times he lives in. We all believe that our values are objective and moral, but that cannot be true because every generation believes that, yet they have vastly conflicting values. Only a few hundred years ago our ancestors found nothing objectionable about owning and selling other people, and some millenniums prior to that the main course at dinner might be a member of a neighboring tribe. Had we lived then, there is little doubt we would not have objected. Several hundred years from now a future generation is likely to consider our values to be as ignorant and barbaric as we consider those of our predecessors.

    I mention this to encourage the reader to jettison, or at least rein in, the opinions, attitudes, and beliefs that he has picked up during his life, because in this book many of them will be disputed. Step out of your times, as though you had just arrived on this planet, and weigh the evidence and reasoning presented. It is nearly impossible to arrive at the truth by listening to only one side of the story, and you are about to hear another side.
    Much of what people are told in schools and in the media today just isn’t so. There are knowledgeable people who know it isn’t so, but they dare not say anything. The rest of us live in this sea of misinformation. Since almost everyone believes the prevailing misinformation, we assume it must be true. So we act on it, making important decisions about our lives, decisions that all too often are disastrous.

    Now, in my waning years, I can see no contribution I could make to the next generation more important than to challenge what I believe to be at least some of these erroneous beliefs. To encourage the dissemination of this book, it is being published without royalties and may be copied, with attribution, without liability to the author. I hope to make it available on the internet without charge, as I have done with my other books.


    Very little is held back in this book. 2 An effort was made to avoid unnecessary insensitivity, but shocking facts, even facts that some will find offensive, are displayed right out in the open where they cannot be missed. I have tried to be as accurate as possible, though I would be amazed if there were no mistakes, as so much ground is covered and speculation was required to fill in gaps in the evidence. Technical language is avoided where possible and explained where used. Large amounts of additional material could have been included, but after working on this almost full time for about four years, I’ve decided it’s time to call it quits.

Introduction

When man first acquired a brain capable of abstract thought, one of his first questions must have been, “Where did we come from?” His answer was to give himself a glorious origin - from gods, from the earth itself, from monsters or giant animals.

    But modern science offers a more mundane origin – man evolved from an ape, a member of the same family as today’s chimpanzees, gorillas, and orangutans. 1 Millions of years later, a descendant of that ape had evolved far enough away from his simian ancestors to be given his own genus, Homo, man. Many more years and many species of Homo later, the first wise men, a somewhat primitive-looking Homo sapiens, arrived then, still later, the first very wise men, Homo sapiens sapiens, modern man, appeared. (Those who name themselves have the most laudatory names.)

    In paleoanthropology, the study of man’s extinct ancestors, much is in dispute and the farther back in time that one goes, the less certain is man’s lineage. Nevertheless, I have decided to accept the risk of error and make some plausible guesses at the early part of man’s journey, from his beginning as a primitive mammal until he walked on two feet, though the book will focus primarily on the question of how did man evolve from a bipedal ape to what he is today.

    Ask most paleoanthropologists where man originated and they, like Charles Darwin, will answer with a single word – “Africa” – Africa from the very beginning and every step of the way, save the last few when the races formed. Sub-Saharan (“s-S”) Africans, they will say, were the first modern people and the Asians evolved from the S-s Africans and then the Europeans evolved from the Asians. Not everyone agrees with that answer, however, and this book presents an alternative scenario.

    A layman might think that the question of modern man’s origins would be studied as other questions in science are studied, or at least as they are supposed to be studied – by dispassionately examining the evidence and letting the chips fall where they may. Unfortunately, when man studies himself, he is not an unbiased observer; anthropologists are not Martians, they are humans and, like everyone else, they have their ideological and psychological hang-ups.

    Like some of the first humans who asked where they came from, one might expect paleoanthropologists to favor a glorious past for their own people and a less reputable past for others, but that is not the case. Just as tennis etiquette dictates that the winner should not gloat over his victory but should graciously inform the loser that he played well and was a formidable opponent, even though it is clearly not true, most paleoanthropologists try not to draw attention to the differences between different populations, so they minimize the strengths of their own people and exaggerate the strengths of others.

    Why they do this is an interesting question, since it is surely more natural to boast than to denigrate oneself, but there is, nevertheless, a powerful need to do so. And anthropologists are not the only people behaving this way. It is now the only acceptable behavior in all Western (white) societies, including the United States, Canada, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. And, although the winning tennis player who tells his losing opponent, “You stink at tennis,” suffers only a frown for his breach of etiquette, making a remark that an ethnic group finds objectionable can cost you a fine and land you in jail, especially if it is true.

    Egalitarianism, the dominant ideology of our time, holds that all people everywhere are equal, at least genetically, and any suggestion to the contrary is simply not acceptable. 2 I will call those who permit no one to question genetic equality the “Equality Police.” On most college campuses, the Equality Police have speech codes (i.e., rules that prohibit free speech) and (required) sensitivity sessions (i.e., brainwashing), and those who are “insensitive” (i.e., think for themselves) may end up disciplined, expelled, or worse. 3 Research that might reveal racial differences, particularly in intelligence and behavior, is strictly verboten, which has made it difficult to gather up-to-date information for this book, in some areas necessitating reliance upon data that was gathered over a century ago.

    The origin of egalitarianism and the damage it has done to science and to scientists is mostly beyond the scope of this book, but it should be noted that egalitarianism is an intellectual plague that has infected mostly the West and has left s-S Africans and Asians relatively unscathed. Particularly in anthropology, psychology, and sociology, the scientific study of racial differences has been corrupted by egalitarianism. 4 Only those conclusions that are consistent with racial egalitarianism may be published by reputable journals 5 and any research that might produce data to the contrary is not financed by government or any organization that wishes to be avoid being labeled a “hate” group.

    What happens when man sees the world not as it is, but as he wishes it to be? He makes unwise decisions that lead to disasters and the waste of vital resources. He fails to progress and stagnates in his backward imaginary world. Like Lamarck, and later Lysenko, who believed that changes in the environment could not only improve living things, but that those improvements would be inherited and passed on to the next generation, today’s egalitarians also hold that genetics is not a constraint – it does not determine men’s fate. But unlike Lysenko, the reason is not that the environment can change genes, 6 but that the genes of all people everywhere are already virtually the same. It is only the environment that has made people different – poor education, poor nutrition, poverty, and most of all, the evil racism of white people. 7 All that is necessary in order for everyone everywhere to be equally successful and accomplished is to provide an equal environment and do “whatever it takes” to get rid of white racism.

    Today in the West we are living through that same political climate that the anti-Lysenko scientists faced in the Soviet Union. A scientist’s conclusions had better be the “right” conclusions, or else. 8 He will not disappear entirely, as some of those scientists did, but he may well disappear from his place of employment and from the pages of respectable journals, even if he is lucky enough to avoid prison. 9 As Charles Murray famously put it, “When it comes to race, science is corrupt.” 10

    Egalitarianism has more power over the people of the West than any other ideology. It has destroyed careers, bankrupted companies, and wasted trillions of dollars. The weak cringe, lie, and relinquish their wealth and the welfare of themselves and their children to avoid the wrath of the Equality Police. The strong and principled, who will not bend, are demonized and ostracized.

    The Equality Police do not permit any cracks in the egalitarian edifice, and those who defy them suffer the modern version of the Inquisition. Jon Entine wrote the book, Taboo: Why Black Athletes Dominate Sports and Why We’re Afraid to Talk About It (Entine, 2001), where he documented racial differences in athletic ability, with blacks excelling in sports that required jumping (e.g., basketball) and running (e.g., football, track, and marathons) 11 and whites excelling in swimming, diving, and gymnastics. Had he stopped there, his book would have drawn little ire from the Equality Police, as those observations are obvious to all. But Entine went on to show that the anatomy of blacks and whites differs in ways that account for those differences in athletic ability. Anatomical differences are not as “superficial” as skin and hair are said to be, but go much deeper, and threaten the core premise of egalitarianism, that all peoples are genetically equal. For that, he was vilified.

    Dr. J. Philippe Rushton, a psychology professor at the University of Western Ontario, London, Ontario, Canada, suffered even more when he discussed intellectual and other differences between the races. In Race, Evolution, and Behavior (Rushton, 2000a), 12 he noted that Africans American had an average IQ of 85 and s-S Africans of only 70. Had he gone on to say that this was due to the shameful racism of whites, who biased the tests and denied blacks the education needed to obtain a high IQ on those tests, he might have been a hero. But instead, he said this IQ gap was not due to bias or the environment, but to genetic differences, such as a smaller brain. And he was demonized, ostracized by his university, and even investigated by the police for criminal conduct. 13

    That bastion of multiculturalism, 14 the self-righteous United Nations, was even provoked to declare that there was no proof of racial differences in intelligence. (“Statement on Race,” 1950). And one prominent geneticist, Dr. Bruce Lahn, gave up doing research into genetic differences between the races that affect intelligence because it was “too controversial.” (Regalado, 2006). Spenser Wells, the head of the National Geographic Society’s Genographic Project, a five-year, forty million dollar effort to collect DNA samples from 100,000 indigenous people, said that brain differences will not be studied because, “I think there is very little evidence of IQ differences between the races,” despite massive evidence to the contrary. (Id.).

    Scientists, just as most of the remainder of the white population, are terrified of being labeled “racist” by the Equality Police. 15 From some of their convoluted publications, one suspects that they do not dare question egalitarianism even in their own minds, much like “double-think” in George Orwell’s “1984,” where Winston had to suppress even his own thoughts.

    Just as Entine may not suggest that there are racial difference in athletic ability and Rushton may not suggest that there are racial difference in intellectual ability, scientists may not suggest that the races diverged a long time ago (and therefore had plenty of time to evolve into genetically very different peoples). No, since all the races are genetically equal, they could not have diverged long ago, and therefore the origin of modern man must be recent and all the discoveries in the study of modern human origins must support that conclusion.


    How far will the Equality Police go to distort and suppress our origins? 16 Here is one story from Great Britain by Armand M. Leroi:

    “Henry Flower became director of the British Museum of Natural History in 1884, and promptly set about rearranging exhibits. He set a display of human skulls to show their diversity of shape across the globe. A century later, the skulls had gone, and in their place was a large photograph of soccer fans standing in their terraces bearing the legend: 'We are all members of a single species, Homo sapiens. But we are not identical.' In 2004 even this went, and so it is that the world's greatest natural history museum has nothing to say to the public about the nature and extent of human biological diversity.

    “Of course, The Natural History Museum, as the British Museum of Natural History is now known, is not the only institution to relegate such demonstrations to the basement. After the 1960s, physical anthropologists, struggling to bury the idea of race, buried phenotypes [different forms] as well – sometimes literally so, as human remains have been reinterred by aboriginal claimants.”

    The scientific theory of modern human origins that is consistent with egalitarianism is the “OoA” (Out-of-Africa) theory. OoA hold that modern man (Homo sapiens sapiens) arose in Africa, then migrated out of Africa. Thus, consistent with egalitarianism, all living human beings are fully modern. Furthermore, since that migration out of Africa occurred recently (about 65,000 ya), very little human evolution has had time to occur since then. 17 Because the migrating s-S Africans were fully modern and there has not been enough time for any significant genetic changes to occur, all living human beings must be genetically equal. In essence, then, “we are all Africans.” 18

    OoA is the accepted theory of modern human origins. It is in the textbooks and is taught in colleges and universities and is taken for granted by scientists. Even Rushton believes that it is correct (Rushton, 2000a, pp 217-233). But science moves inexorably onward in its march towards the truth. The truth will prevail, not because man is noble or wise, but because man cannot long survive when he has an erroneous view of reality. Eventually, erroneous man will be supplanted by those who see reality as it really is.


Read this book. It is hard to find information like this from a variety of scientific sources that is readable to the average person.

The effect of reading it has been like taking another red pill. A massive awakening, that has given me a better perspective on people, society, race and history. The information is shocking, but at the same time profound, life changing and fascinating.

Not that some of us here would disagree with some of stuff like that, the idea of the forum has been streamlined to not go into every controversial topic about anything and everything. Some stuff just is not beneficial here as it would allow certain someones to attack the forum on points unrelated to the main message

Erectus Walks Amongst Us - Mindblowing book on race and evolution

Yeah, ok I only mentioned one thing that I found mindblowing there, and that was how deeply the egalitarianism ideology has corrupted science, paticularly social sciences like anthropology.

Evolution is still a controversial idea today as it was back in Darwins time. We cannot even suggest that different races had different evolutions because that suggests certain races may have evolved more than others.

I found the section on Aborigines mindblowing.

"Tropical aboriginal populations are the last remnants of tropically-adapted erectus populations[Homo Erectus], pushed south by more advanced Hs and Hss[Homo Sapiens Sapiens] northern populations. They survived by seeking refuge on isolated and less desirable territories, such as islands, mountains, and dense forests. As they retreated and diminished in numbers, they interbred with those northerners, picking up Hs and Hss alleles and traits. The resulting erectus hybrids had traits of both parent populations, but only those individuals who had traits best adapted for the tropics survived. Today, erectus hybrids and Hs can be found in the aborigines of India, the Andaman Islands, some South Pacific Islands, the Philippines, New Guinea, New Zealand, Australia, and elsewhere in Asia."

"Because the aborigines in Australia and on South Pacific islands were isolated and did not receive much inflow of more evolved alleles from northern populations, they are among the most primitive populations. When modern Europeans first arrived in the 1600s, the Australian aborigines “had no bow and arrow, to say nothing of such arts as pottery or agriculture,” and they cooked by “tossing their meat into the fire.” (Howells, 1948, p. 285). The Australian aborigines were the only people who did not make the connection between having sex and giving birth."


They are actually the furthest away genetically from Africans despite having black skin. They also have a very low IQ of 67. Their only contributions to mankind has been a log that you blow through and a throwing stick. They burnt Australia to the ground as that was the only way they knew to feed themselves. They did not farm. They've failed at integrating into society, they're known in Australia for being alcoholics and sniffing glue and paint.
It is because they are basically Cavemen, hunter gatherers, who never evolved past that and they are trying to catch up with society in the last 200 years. If the British didn't get to Australia before the Maoris did, then they probably would have been wiped out and replaced by them a long time ago.


There have been different races or subspecies, breeds of humans fighting each other and breeding with each other for millions of years which has affected who we are today.

I will try to provide a summary of the out of eurasia theory and maybe the rest of the book another time.

Here is a diagram showing the out of Eurasia theory and the evolution of different types of humans.

It is true that the PC culture is strong in academia. But these are bold allegations. Grand conspiracy, government persecution, intentional falsification of science. Very bold. The evidence supporting it should be equally bold.

Whether it is true or not I expect we will quickly get to the truth of the matter.

If you're going to try, go all the way. There is no other feeling like that. You will be alone with the gods, and the nights will flame with fire. You will ride life straight to perfect laughter. It's the only good fight there is.

Erectus Walks Amongst Us - Mindblowing book on race and evolution

This is not my area of expertise and I'll be the first to admit I've only read one book related to this stuff, and that's Jared Diamond's Guns, Germs, and Steel (pdf linked). The main question that book seeks to answer is how did Europeans develop the guns, germs, and steel that decimated the "Indians" of the New World? Why were Europeans more advanced?

Diamond and many other scientists provide compelling evidence that, yes, certain populations "evolved" more quickly so as to develop agriculture and, eventually, steel-working.

At the very root of this, though, is the development of agriculture, which allowed populations to break away from the time-intensive lifestyles of hunting and gathering. This allowed more specialized jobs to spring up, including glass blowing dildos for bored housewives. And making guns and shit.

Why did agriculture spring up in one particular part of the world? You may have guessed it, but it's because there's one particular area in the entire world that's most ripe for agriculture, and that was the Fertile Crescent around the Mediterranean. The climate here was able to produce three key features that made it the best place in the world, where agriculture could actually beat out hunting and gathering:

1. The weather, for one. Though that's not unique to the Fertile Crescent, other places have similar weather.
2. The seed diversity amenable to agriculture. This region has the highest number of cultivable seeds by orders of magnitude compared to anywhere else in the world.

[Image: attachment.jpg28023]   

3. The diversity in mammals that could be domesticated for agriculture. Similar to seeds of fruits and vegetables, the sheer number of domesticable animals in this region wipes the floor with any other region in the world.

[Image: attachment.jpg28022]   

Long story short, it's an accident of nature that a group of people had a thousand-year or so head-start on agriculture that eventually led to the development of all the technology we know today. I'd bet rent that, say, had the much maligned Australian aboriginals lucked into settling along the Fertile Crescent, the threads on this forum would be like 'Where in the world are girls most impressed by strong Boomerang game?' and 'Best songs to play for bitches on my didgeridoo?'

Evolution is not a controversial subject. Of course people have evolved differently. Environment shapes genes through natural selection. This is what we're expected to see. But we all started from the same source, and there's strong evidence that we all have the potential for greatness. Especially now that resources are everywhere and the selective pressures of current society are unlike any other time in history.

That's why I remain unconvinced on the topic of 'racial superiority'... this summary doesn't really convince me to read it either, not really a compelling argument. It seems more like a report on the history of the Minnesota Timberwolves, written by the LA Lakers. "Nevermind that the three best centers in NBA history all fought their way to come to our team, and that we have Hollywood next door. Minnesota has underperformed while they've been in the league. We have 16 titles, they have none. We have a trillion dollar TV deal, they're losing money. They don't even know that sex makes babies. We can only conclude Minnesotans are clearly unevolved beasts."

Then again, I'm a lazy Puerto Rican, so I have to side with my fellow Australian aboriginals and dumbass Minnesotans.

Some of the Amazon reviews are hilarious, but it looks like this hasn't been taken seriously by any anthropologist and is only mentioned on sites like stormfront and whitewillwin for a reason.

Just because it's politically incorrect doesn't automatically make it factually correct.

Agriculture is one factor. But there are multitude others which support the thesis that Western civilization is not only superior but also unique. To say that aboriginals would have had similar success in building such an incredible society is absolutely absurd. However, this is a vast topic and probably not suited for this thread anyway.

Meh, I don't think any mentally healthy man actually believes the leftist ideas on race. There's nothing surprising in the above texts. I suspect we will have to wait until eastern scientific establishments retake the torch before we get to see real science on this topic in the mainstream.

Science is always threatened and corrupted by politics, because political groups are threatened by observations of objective reality. Political groups want people to believe what they say, without regard to what is real. For this reason if you want the real science on a political topic, the first step is to discard anything considered 'mainstream', or which has even tenuous funding links to any political group or establishment.

This includes anything on economics, race, sex, sexuality, war, genetics, climate, human development, and studies on human nature generally.

It also includes history. For instance, the main subjects of history I learned at school were as follows: white invasion of Australia and white invasion of South America, and all the brutality involved. I think some history about the Romans and the British empire (almost all in the context of Ghandi) too. At no point was I taught about the Mongols or that Spain was once a Muslim state.

There is zero doubt that science, history, and education are dominated by political goals rather than being about explaining objective reality.

Off-topic, but regarding the teaching of history: ask 100 people who William Wilberforce was, and how many will be able to tell you?

More than any other single individual, he's the man who abolished slavery among the entire human race.

For 40 lonely years he led the crusade, starting off almost alone, until as an old man he saw the British parliament ban slavery. Within a few more decades it had (legally) disappeared from almost the whole world.

A great hero. Also a white, male Christian. And almost completely thrown down the memory hole because of this.

3 chapters in. The author is clearly very intelligent based on his writing. I'm reading it with an unbiased opinion on the subject and will see what conclusions I draw once finished. It's definitely controversial work but I will save my opinions for the end. That is how I view all works, it's only fair to the author that I leave my preconceived notions at the proverbial front door.

Interesting stuff. I have read theories ( backed by DNA evidence ) that Europeans are all hybrid humans as all of our European ancestors bred with Neanderthal man at some point and that is why many Europeans have light skin, red and blonde hair and blue or green eyes. And also that the East Asians ( Chinese/ Korean /Japanese) are the result of hybridization with another ancient human in Asia.

This subject needs to be seriously studied and not swept under the carpet in the name of political correctness or racism.

The DNA evidence is that anyone who isn't of African descent has Neanderthal DNA in them (something like 2-5%), hence the out of Africa theory. In summary though - pre-Eurasian man boinked a neandergirl soon after leaving Africa, and the offspring then spread out.

I'd start thinking something's sus when that kind of DNA evidence gets ignored... The book seems interesting but smells a bit conspiracy-theory-esk. Or like something that might get taught at an underground KKK college...

I've read this as well and that's what has my interest in this thread.

Some years ago the ancient mix of Asians, especially suspected among northern populations like Japan, became widely shared in the general populations scientific knowledge(to those who like to read science for fun).

The problem with political correctness is that these theories are never fully explained or connected to known or studied knowledge. You end up having a bunch of interesting material that exists in a bubble. Not much mainstream science can speak about what the hell was going on in Africa for millennia prior to out of Africa migration, so I became a truther ever since.

That's a fair point. If they never had alcohol, which whites etc have had since forever, then no selection pressure against those who can't cope with it's existence will have ever happened. That said, it's hard to really know how much that effect is to blame for their condition, given that they are being crippled by welfare demotivation.

Exactly, the welfare mentality, the victim mentality, and the "I-have-dark-skin-therefore-I'm-a-gangsta-yo" mentality are by far the biggest problem. This is recent and has nothing to do with evolution. I wonder who is responsible??

Interesting stuff. I have read theories ( backed by DNA evidence ) that Europeans are all hybrid humans as all of our European ancestors bred with Neanderthal man at some point and that is why many Europeans have light skin, red and blonde hair and blue or green eyes. And also that the East Asians ( Chinese/ Korean /Japanese) are the result of hybridization with another ancient human in Asia.

This subject needs to be seriously studied and not swept under the carpet in the name of political correctness or racism.

I'm pretty sure that the light skin evolved later - as recently as 12,000 or even 6,000 years ago.

Ignore the comments, they're about what you would expect.

I've also seen the hypothesis that it supposedly relates to the spread of agriculture, which was actually poorer nutritionally than the old hunter-gatherer diet, but I can't find that source right now.

That's why I remain unconvinced on the topic of 'racial superiority'... this summary doesn't really convince me to read it either, not really a compelling argument. It seems more like a report on the history of the Minnesota Timberwolves, written by the LA Lakers. "Nevermind that the three best centers in NBA history all fought their way to come to our team, and that we have Hollywood next door. Minnesota has underperformed while they've been in the league. We have 16 titles, they have none. They don't even know that sex makes babies. We can only conclude Minnesotans are clearly unevolved beasts."

Then again, I'm a lazy Puerto Rican, and I have to side with my fellow Australian aboriginals and dumbass Minnesotans.

Hey now, we Minnesotans are very proud of our... success challenged sports teams.
I'd like this twice if I could.

I remember reading this several years ago and it raised all manner of red flags. Recommend reading this with a very critical eye towards bias, omission, and rhetorical tricks. My recollection is that discussion of various pieces of legitimate research were trojan horses for blatantly racist payloads not necessarily supported by available evidence-- in addition the sum total of all the evidence was contrived "just so" to promote racist thinking. Could not shake the feeling that I was reading sophisticated propaganda.

But again, have not read this in several years so cannot point to anything explicitly.

We just need to look around to see we're fucking different. Today we cannot even say that men are different to women. It is politically incorrect. Fuck that.

I don't go whining because agencies don't call me for modeling because I know I don't look like Brad Pitt nor get upset for NBA not calling me since I'm not tall. SJWs think that studying anthropology will create another Hitler.

Some of the Amazon reviews are hilarious, but it looks like this hasn't been taken seriously by any anthropologist and is only mentioned on sites like stormfront and whitewillwin for a reason.

Just because it's politically incorrect doesn't automatically make it factually correct.

Same like with the migrant crisis, when the entire media (regardless of being "liberal" or "conservative") is united in spreading bullshit, of course the only place to find truth will be alternative websites.

It's not found on stormfront because it fits a white nationalist agenda, it's found on stormfront because it has no other place to go.

Just something to think about.

That is a good metric Eel. Thanks for pointing that out for the intellectual youngsters watching. Limiting yourself from intellectual "no go zones" because its popularly called hate speech or bigotry or radioactive by others doesn't mean you won't find something valuable there.

Do you think only white nationalists read Mein Kampf?

I'll say that since my mind has been changed on gaddafi recently, I'll start reading his founder document in the next few days.
