May his burial place be added to a list of places where despicable people are buried for tourists to pee or spit or throw garbage on their graves. These ugly sociopaths deserve to have their graves given such treatment. There is not much that separates people like Regnery from other monsters in history.\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.opednews.com\/articles\/Fascist-Funder-William-Reg-by-Rob-Kall-Citizens-United_Fascism-Cant-Happen-Here_Fascist_Fascist-Americans-210716-245.html\">https:\/\/www.opednews.com\/articles\/Fascist-Funder-William-Reg-by-Rob-Kall-Citizens-United_Fascism-Cant-Happen-Here_Fascist_Fascist-Americans-210716-245.html<\/a><\/p>\n<p>My comment:<\/p>\n<p>William Regnery was a mild-mannered moderate conservative. His sin is that he was not anti-white. The vitriolic hatred spewed against him by progressive Rob Kall who did not know him shows that the progressive movement is driven by irrational hatred and regards all white conservatives as white supremacist scum whose graves are to be pissed on.<\/p>\n<p>How can a country survive this extreme form of hatred?<\/p>\n<p>Following the New York Times, progressives use terms such as white racist and white supremacist so loosely that the terms are devoid of meaning. Anyone who has anything positive to say about Western civilization or the founding of the United States is considered a white supremacist.\u00a0 In contrast, Aruna Khilanani\u2019s vitriolic expression of hatred for white people is considered free speech and, moreover, is applauded:\u00a0 \u201cI had fantasies of unloading a revolver into the head of any white person that got in my way, burying their body and wiping my bloody hands as I walked away relatively guiltless with a bounce in my step. Like I did the world a f***ing favor.\u201d<a href=\"https:\/\/www.unz.com\/article\/expressions-of-anti-white-hatred-in-high-places-aruna-khilanani-at-yale\/\"> https:\/\/www.unz.com\/article\/expressions-of-anti-white-hatred-in-high-places-aruna-khilanani-at-yale\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Aside from being untrue, the liberal\/progressive\/left\u2019s denunciation of Regnery as the founder of white supremacy makes no sense according to their own doctrine of \u201csystemic racism.\u201d \u00a0According to this doctrine,<em> every<\/em> white person is a white supremacist by virtue of skin color. \u00a0So why single out one white person as a culprit when all whites are culprits? \u00a0According to \u201csystemic racism\u201d there is no difference between William Regnery and any other white person. \u00a0Even mathematics is guilty of racism. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zerohedge.com\/markets\/ontarios-grade-9-will-teach-mathematics-has-been-used-normalize-racism?utm_campaign=&amp;utm_content=Zerohedge%3A+The+Durden+Dispatch&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_source=zh_newsletter\">https:\/\/www.zerohedge.com\/markets\/ontarios-grade-9-will-teach-mathematics-has-been-used-normalize-racism?utm_campaign=&amp;utm_content=Zerohedge%3A+The+Durden+Dispatch&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_source=zh_newsletter\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>White people need to comprehend that the doctrine of \u201csystemic racism\u201d means that every white person is a white supremacist. \u00a0It does not matter what you say or do or write or if you are married to a \u201cperson of color\u201d and have mixed-race or rainbow children. \u00a0By definition, every white is a \u201csystemic racist.\u201d \u00a0One wonders if those enforcing this regimen will follow the Nazis and American Indian tribes in deciding how much of a Jew or Indian does one have to be to qualify as Jew or Indian. \u00a0Will a half-white or quarter-white person still be a \u201csystemic racist\u201d? \u00a0If memory serves, some Indian tribes allow you to be a member if you are one-sixteenth Indian. Will demonized whites last long enough to be watered down to less than one-sixteenth white?<\/p>\n<p>White Americans desperately need to wake up to the fact that hatred of them is institutionalized in education, entertainment, media, and the Democrat Party. \u00a0Systemic racism and critical race theory do not apply only to white, Christian, straight, Republican Trump supporters. \u00a0The terms include every white person, including those whites who mandate the teaching of white hatred in school systems and apply it to prosecutions. \u00a0What is being done to white people is precisely what the Nazis did to the Jews. \u00a0First you demonize them. \u00a0Then you remove them from the population. \u00a0Don\u2019t think \u201cit can\u2019t happen here.\u201d \u00a0It is already happening. \u00a0White Americans, like Jews were in National Socialist Germany, are being removed from university admissions, occupations, and promotions by racial quotas. The white majority is being replaced in their own country.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"k1QGZ8HH5S\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.paulcraigroberts.org\/pages\/donate\/\">Donate<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;Donate&#8221; &#8212; PaulCraigRoberts.org\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paulcraigroberts.org\/pages\/donate\/embed\/#?secret=k1QGZ8HH5S\" data-secret=\"k1QGZ8HH5S\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.paulcraigroberts.org\/2021\/07\/17\/irrational-hatred-drives-the-progressive-movement\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>White Americans desperately need to wake up to the fact that hatred of them is institutionalised.
