๐จ The Secret Origins of Robin DiAngelo's White "Anti-Racist" Cult
You've heard that it's impossible to be racist against white people. That all white people are inherently racist. That the only solution is to "do the work."
Where did this all come from? You might know of Critical Race Theory, but there's another source for these ideas you've never heard about.
I undertook an unprecedented investigation into the origins of these ideas, pulling documents and microfilms from university special collections and sending people into "anti-racism" workshops with hidden cameras.
Here's a summary:
โข Stokely Carmichael, the Marxist-Leninist founder of the Black Power movement, kicked all the white people out of his organization and told them to "educate other white people" in his views.
โข Robert Terry, a white man, developed his philosophy of "New White Consciousness" based on Carmichael's views, explaining "we have met the enemy, and they are us."
โข After the Detroit riots of 1967, Michigan Governor George Romney engages in "riot insurance" by funding racially militant projects.
โข White K-12 educators receive this funding and teach New White Consciousness. One of these teachers, Alan Hurwitz, gets addicted to crack and becomes a famed serial bank robber. Another, Patricia Bidol, invents to "Power + Prejudice" definition of "racism."
โข These educators train with the NTL Institute, an organization founded by U.S. intelligence's former director of the "psychological warfare center for the Far East." There they learn psychologically manipulative education techniques that allow them to โform ideology for other people.โ
โข The National Education Association, America's largest teachers union, trains teachers in these ideas nationwide.
โข Judith Katz, author of the infamous Smithsonian โAspects & Assumptions of Whitenessโ infographic, refines the techniques of "anti-racism" training and drastically increases their popularity.
โข Robin DiAngelo plagiarizes her predecessors' ideas wholesale, while citing none of them.
All of this and so much more is exposed in my new book Redefining Racism, released TODAY. Learn more from the video below. Follow the link in the next tweet to read it for yourself. ๐ฝ
Itโs one thing to say that international law is an unenforceable fiction, which I broadly agree with. Itโs another thing to oppose appeals to morality and justice (as represented in international law). If one is to support morality and justice, there is no alternative, and to do otherwise is evil.
The Arab population wanted a state that they believed would protect their rights and interests. Itโs immaterial from my perspective if that was to be under an independent Palestine or as part of another Arab state, which Iโm sure Palestinians had differing opinions on.
Iโm not an expert in everything that happened in the fall of the Ottoman Empire, and I canโt speak in great detail to other displacements. What I can say is thereโs one where families still hold the keys to their homes and want to return, and that any defender of classical liberal Western ideals must support that or be an immoral hypocrite.

Youโre entitled to your opinion. But it was absolutely an aggressive action. But it wasnโt even their land. They had the chance of a state, and the Arabs didnโt want it, because (a) they werenโt interested in a separate state for the Arab inhabitants of the mandate (they werenโt given one between 58-67), (b) they didnโt want a Jewish state in the Middle East, and predominantly still donโt.
As for international law, I understand it perfectly thanks. And I understand that those that appeal to it (and morality and justice) in terms of international politics, understand neither war, international law, or the place of justice in the international realm. As someone once said civilisationโฆwell you know the rest I hope.
And if the US started a war against China and lost, and in the process millions were displaced from territory China gained, no international law will make China allow the populations to return. Great powers only follow international law insofar as it suits them.
Question though, in the breakdown of the Ottoman Empire 4-5 million people were displaced, whatโs the fascination with the 750k inhabitants of the Mandate and the complete ignoring of all the others.
But feel free to carry on attempting to unwind history on the basis of a perceived injustice. Itโs worked well for the Palestinians and the region so far hasnโt it.
The Zionists were the aggressors by virtue of trying to take political control of land in a way that gave them disproportionate control over the majority of the people who lived there.
This was true from the earliest days of Zionism with their talk of population โtransferโ (ethnic cleansing), and it remained true in 47 as was clear in the partition maps, where the proposed Jewish state had only the narrowest Jewish majority while the Arab state had an overwhelming Arab majority, thus giving disproportionately more land to the Zionists than the Arabs.
There are versions of partition that could have been more fair that I would have a different opinion on, but those were not the one that was proposed.
Additionally, the Zionists accepted partition provisionally, but wanted the whole land and there was good reason to believe they would not stop with what they were given. Itโs worse than ironic how much Israeli rejection of the 2SS now aligns with Palestinian rejection of the 2SS then.

I always thought leftists were the most deeply un-American ideologues but then I watched Zionists actively undermine core U.S. ideals just to support Israel
Saying โthe right of the individual does not exist in natureโ is about the most un-American statement possible. Appalling that you were given American citizenship without knowing the following words:
โWe hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.โ
In America, we believe our rights come before government, and governments are instituted to protect them. That you believe itโs the other way around, and thatโs you explicitly believe Palestinians are only entitled to rights if and when they are allowed to form a government, is why you โ and Zionist ideology broadly โ is deeply un-American. Contra your propaganda, Israel is neither liberal nor a democracy.
โPalestiniansโ are not all helpless victims. But many more individual Palestinians are helpless victims than Israeli Jews, and ANY state, including the Israeli state, is only just if it is securing the rights of the governed. Not keeping a whole population under endless military occupation with no rights.
You fundamentally seem incapable of thinking past collectivist groups like โArabs.โ Even if the fault was on the Arab side (it wasnโt, and youโre not accurately reflecting the Arab position in pre-48 Palestinian, in which Arab representatives to UNSCOP stated clearly that Jews who were legal citizens of British Palestine would keep their citizenship and have equal rights with Arabs in the Arab majority state to follow), it wouldnโt justify the Nakba or whatever other historical atrocities you can cite (although India/Pakistan does not have a comparable set of facts anyway) because individual innocent civilians rights ought to be protected. It is the nature of evil that in order to justify one act of email, you must justify many more; it is possible instead to justify none.
If you never shy away from a debate, then letโs get on a podcast and do it. Iโm sure it wouldnโt be difficult to find a neutral party to host. You will lose badly.
Replying to @JosephJakeKlein
I didnโt attack your person or retreat. I said you were repeating the same old tired talking points that make Palestinians helpless victims.
Now, about Zionism and moving in, history is filled with human relocation stories. Anatolia was Greek until 1500, and in the 20th century Greece and Turkey swapped population. India and Pakistan did too.
Also, the right of any individual doesnโt exist in nature. It is a function of the social contract that a collective signs together and calls constitution in which a citizen concedes right to use violence to the state, which uses this violence to maintain security of citizens and the public space. Rights of Palestinians come from their own social contract, if they ever agree on one, not from the Israeli, US government or the UN.
And Palestine itself was a sharing project that Israelis accepted and Palestinians did not. Read the papers of the 1939 London Conference. Jews demanded equal rights. Arabs insisted that Palestine be Arab Muslim with Jews as a minority (second degree citizens).
I can shred every argument youโre going to throw my way. The problem is on the Arab side, and I say it as a proud Arab practicing introspection and describing what failure should be fixed, not blame others for Arab problems.
Iโd stop digging if I were you, but youโre welcome to go on. I never shy away from a debate.

You seemed to care a lot about who I was when you thought it would let you call me a kid who was born yesterday. Itโs more honorable to start on high ground rather than have to retreat to it.
You know too much about this issue to not know that Palestinians did revolt against Jordanian rule over the West Bank: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_โฆ
Not that this should be relevant in any way. Palestinians, like Jews, are individuals with rights. The evil of collectivists like you is that you will destroy the rights of innocent individuals if you donโt like what other individuals of the same identity group did. You are right that Arabs certainly committed atrocities against innocent Jews. As did Jews against innocent Arabs. The difference between me and you is I donโt see either of these as an excuse for more collectivist, racist violence. You see it as an excuse for Israelโs.
I also think itโs fraudulent to say anything other than Zionists started this conflict by moving to Palestine with the the intention of making a state intended to represent a people that excluded the vast majority of those living there. Any other people anywhere else in the world would oppose those intending to do this to their home too.

Replying to @History__Speaks
Not only is "Palestinianism" not an ethnicity, it is a figment of the Zionist imagination, which maintains that Palestinians exist only as an ideological construct ("Palestinianism") rather than as a human and political reality. Ergo, "Palestinians don't exist".
As for ethnicity, no one in their right mind claims that Palestinians, or any national group in the Middle East, forms a distinct and unique ethnic group. Zionists of course claim that Israeli Jews form a unique and distinct ethnic group, and that this group's Moroccans, Ethiopians, Poles, Iraqis, Yemenis, Iranians, Russians etc. have nothing in common with anyone else but everything in common with each other. A view shared by no one in their right mind.
Similarly, a distinct "Arab Muslim ethnicity" also does not exist. Quite apart from the reality that "Arab" is for the most part a cultural/linguistic/political rather than ethnic designation, the premise that Egyptian Arab Muslims, for example, have more in common with Kuwaiti or Moroccan Arab Muslims than with Egyptian Arab Copts, or that Arabs of other religions are ethnically separate from Arab Muslims, is embarrassingly nonsensical.
Israel flunkies like this FDD imbecile can't get enough of these silly rabbit holes, for the simple reason that the only remaining alternative left to them is to proclaim that genocide and apartheid are beautiful.
And for the most part, that is something they will only do in Hebrew.
Arab leadership was not morally or legally obligated to accept partition for civilian Palestinians to have a right to stay in their homes and not be expelled.
If the American and Chinese governments went to war and America lost, is it ok for China to expel you to Canada, take your house, give it to a Chinese person, and never let you return?
Also Iโm 35, was sent to a Jewish school where we were taught to be Zionists for 12 years, have relatives in Israel, and spent about half a year there. I took 12 years of Hebrew and know well what Hasbara means. Meanwhile youโre their token paid propagandist.
Intifada crowd confuse real estate ownership with national sovereignty. Canadians can buy every piece of real estate in America, but America will never become Canada.
Palestine was created as a binational Arab/Jewish country. Arabs refused binationalism, refused UN partition, refused Oslo two state, refuse to recognize Zionism.
Then kids who were born yesterday think they know something about the conflict... oh, and they think that using the term hasbara, Hebrew for "to explain," is their catch all, gotcha moment, term.
This โPalestinians are not a peopleโ hasbara is worse than moronic, itโs evil.
It doesnโt matter if Palestinian was a distinct identity historically. What matters is there were specific people with specific property on specific land who were wrongfully dispossessed of it.
Their argument is like saying โCalifornians were never historically a people, they are just a subset of North Americans. Therefore, itโs acceptable to take their land and homes, expel them to Canada, and never let them return.โ
Palestinianism is not an ethnicity. It is an invented subset of Arabism, which can be hardly separated from Islam. This means the Arab Muslim ethnicity, with its vast population and land, can make room for 8 million Israeli Jews, concede some land for them to be sovereign. This is especially needed because Arabs/Muslims have proven their inability to treat non-Arabs and non-Muslims as their equals. Not only Jews should get their sovereign state, but also Druze, Christians, Kurds, Alawites. Itโs a matter of preserving diversity, which is impossible under Arab/Muslim sovereignty.

A war is coming to the West Bank
Yesterday Palestinian resistance fighters conducted a surgical strike against Israeli occupation soldiers, fully in accordance with international law.
In response, Israeli government immediately announced that they will do war crimes and started doing war crimes.
All the Palestinian villages in the West Bank are under siege, the city of Hebron is under siege. IDF is demolishing house after house, raiding family after family. They said they want to turn Hebron into Rafah.
More than 250 families were kicked out into the streets with nothing. People slept on the street last night.
The Israeli election is in 3 days, and the Netanyahu-Smotrich government is going to use this to start a war in the West Bank.
The only way to stop this is pressure from all directions. We know it works. International pressure worked for the besieged house in Qusra, which still belongs to the Palestinians because of the all-around attention. It can work for Hebron too.
But it will require EVERYONE reading this doing everything they can to stop this. Call your representative, hold a demonstration, organise direct action against the occupationโs assets abroad. Keep attention on the West Bank.
ACT NOW.

If this is true, Iโm so happy to hear.
Childrenโs bodily autonomy is important to maintain, and an ally like Elon could do much to change the culture.
@elonmusk thank you for sparing your son.
Worth remembering.
If you oppose wokeness, you ought to fully oppose Zionism.
Zionism is by definition ethno-nationalist identity politics. It weaponizes victimhood culture for financial and social support. It believes like Ibram Kendi that โthe only remedy for past discrimination is present discrimination.โ
Many Western pro-Palestinian leftists are woke too, and that often makes them obnoxious and counter-productive activists. But the Palestinian cause is itself not woke; itโs about respecting Palestinian property rights to their own land.
Meanwhile, the Zionist cause is woke to its core.

We @adc are again on the frontlines of the fight against CBPโs abuse of its authority at the border. The agency has been using the border search exception to punish and retaliate against journalists, activists and lawyers who express views contra to the Administrationsโ as it did in our other two cases on behalf of @MaxBlumenthal and lawyer Jalal Shehadehโby insisting on accessing the contents of their phones, and seizing those devices when such access was refused. Our new client Muhammad Imam protested, when he explained that as a psychiatric nurse, his phone contained confidential patient data and so he refused to permit CBP access. CBP punitively took his phone and laptop, as well as those belonging to his wife, and revoked his global entry status. We have hearing tomorrow in the eastern district of Virginia, where we will demand an explanation for CBPโs unlawful conduct.
