I Am Not Amused

In response to my post on the civil war between black people and niggas, Unamused writes:

Okay, so where do African niggas come from? And why are niggas worse in Africa than in any civilized (white) nation?

You know the kind: no written language, think gang-rape is a normal part of childhood, chop up albinos for use in magic spells, have sex with babies and animals because they think it cures AIDS, might hunt Pygmies like game animals if there's a civil war, throw acid on suspected child witches, really hate white people and want them out of the country (until they actually do, and the country goes to hell)...

Gee, what are the liberals doing to Africa, to make it so much worse than Detroit and New Orleans? Well, slightly worse than Detroit and New Orleans, at least.

Because OBVIOUSLY it couldn't possibly be the case that blacks are genetically predisposed to lower intelligence (which we already know they are: in America, 9 out of 10 are below the white average in intelligence, and 1 in 4 are borderline retarded), or that lower intelligence correlates with negative social outcomes like crime and poverty and illegitimacy and disease (which we already know it does). I mean, come on: just look at the crime rates of poor Chinese people! (Very, very low.)

You're missing the big picture, which is biological. The State has to keep American blacks under control to prevent most of them from becoming feral. It has failed to do so in recent decades -- ever since the Civil Rights Movement, actually.

How much more data against the social/cultural/governmental/environmental hypothesis do you really need, before you're ready to accept that genetic differences between the races (which we know exist) are the root cause of social differences, and the best the State can do is damage control (and immigration control)?

Unamused seems to think that only Africans engage in brutality and believe in ludicrous myths. Did blacks start the War between the States that was one of the most brutal wars ever? Did blacks start the Spanish-American War? Did blacks lead the U.S. into World War I to spread democracy across the world? Did blacks institute a draft to fight that war? Did blacks pass the Sedition Act that criminalized free speech? Did blacks create the Federal Reserve Bank to finance that war? Did blacks force farmers to kill their pigs during the Great Depression while millions were hungry to keep pork prices high? Did blacks provoke the Japanese to fire on Pearl Harbor so that the U.S. could be drawn into World War II? Did blacks drop atomic bombs on two cities, killing hundreds of thousands of civilians? Did blacks start the Korean War? Did blacks start the Vietnam War? Did blacks invade Iraq, not once but twice? Did blacks start the war in Afghanistan?

You want to hold up the U.S. as a paradigm of civilization? This civilized (white) nation uses SWAT teams to arrest people who are selling raw milk. Milk? One set of government bureaucrats in this civilized (white) nation threatens violence against little girls selling lemonade. Another set of government bureaucrats in this civilized (white) nation molests children and adults at airports to "keep us safe". You call that civilization? You really want to contrast the brutality of the African with the brutality that our own government visits violence on its own people daily? You really think that a group of (white) people who hunt down Afghanistan civilians and keeps their body parts as souvenirs is more civilized than a people who hunts Pygmies during a civil war?

You think that low intelligence leads to more brutality? What about high intelligence? Lincoln, Wilson, FDR, Truman, and LBJ were all intelligent people, yet look at the damage they have done to destabilize society. Look at the brutality that they have unleashed on the world through their stubborn belief in their own righteousness. Look at the pernicious ideologies of socialism and communism. These ideologies were not created by blacks, but by very intelligent white people. These ideologies are based on just as much myth as the beliefs you cited for Africans. White people still believe such nonsense today and our civilization is collapsing because of it.

Unamused is missing the big picture. The State is the most brutal institution that man has ever created. The democratic State that we live in owes its origin to an ideology created by white people. There simply is no comparison with its brutality. There is nothing that the Africans have done or can do to remotely compete with the amount of violence and brutality that the State has visited upon the world. The US Government, in particular, is a unique evil that is simultaneously destroying nations around the world while terrorizing its own population with the IRS, FTC, FCC, CIA, FBI, DHS, TSA, DOJ, ICE, and a surfeit of freedom-destroying agencies. This government has been run by whites for most of its existence. True, a black man is in charge of the U.S. Government today and is continuing the violence of administrations before him. But Obama's election only shows that a black man finally learned to be just as deceptive and brutal to become elected as the 43 white men who proceeded him were.

Until race realists can cite statistics that correct for the outright brutality of the State in the world, there is nothing they can say to convince me that the State is not the root problem of decivilization. There is no statistic they can cite to prove to me that Africans are more violent than the white agents of the U.S. Government who have murdered people in foreign nations and their own country over nonsense like "the spread of democracy" or the ware on drugs. In fact I would argue that the most dangerous and brutal people are very intelligent white men who learn to control the masses and persuade them to do their bidding as instruments of the State. Perhaps white people are biologically predisposed to control others through the State.

A civilization in which people could freely associate with whom they want and defend themselves as they want would be exponentially more peaceful than the world we live in now for all races. But we are stuck with forced immigration thanks to the State. We cannot defend ourselves thanks to the State's gun laws. We cannot secede to form our own communities thanks to one white man who was in charge of the State in 1861. And until Unamused and others accept this truth of the innate criminality of the State, how it negatively influences behavior of people of all races, and how the necessary tendencies of the State inevitably lead to the decivilization of society, they will continue to believe in a myth just as ridiculous as having sex with babies cures AIDS or chopping up albinos is useful for magic spells.

Now that is some righteous smackdown. You guys are blog rolled.
At the risk of giving offense I hope you "Keep up the Skeer."

The state doesn't quite reflect on peoples of all races.

One of the things James Scott misses is that states -are- militarily superior. Conscription is wrong, but it is also effective. If a neighbour has been stupid enough to allow a state parasite to grow unchecked, you may have no choice but to appeal to a more local parasite for protection.

I happen to think this is a solvable conundrum, but historically the net result is that a society infected with statism causes and inflames infections nearby. Statism infections are devilish to cure; lately only Somalia (of all places) has managed to rid itself, and new infections are already taking hold. Similarly, it doesn't matter how resistant to statism you are if you can't mount a sufficiently concentrated military defence.

Though yeah, I can't believe I didn't think of that myth thing sooner. It's so obvious now you've pointed it out. Africans sometimes believe in murdering albinos for pointless rituals. Sure, that's wrong.

Americans believe in murdering hundreds upon hundreds of thousands of arabs because a tower fell down. It's not even in the same league of wrong. (No disrespect meant to the friends and families of those victims, of course.)

The main difference is that anglophones find magic unfashionable and 'nation building' fashionable.
