Ireland’s Alienism, Violence, and Power.
Ireland’s Quest for Identity
Alienism, Violence, and Power.
Sinn Féin Leader Mary Lou McDonald said that the stabbing that occurred in Dublin is “just a shocking, unexpected, random incident” as protests and fires were started in reaction to an Algerian Migrant knife attack outside of Gaelscoil Colaiste Mhuire, a school for young children, leaving a teacher in her 30s and a young girl in critical condition still in the hospital. As the news broke out, riots took place, the media cycle was up in arms about “Hate” while anyone with a functioning mind was asking why was there an Algerian stabbing children in Ireland?
Rioting took place, dozens arrested, property damaged and burned. Violence and destruction as a response to this attack was as expected for the native Irish to react to such a crime that highlights the ongoing issues of immigration into Ireland and its changing social environment. Even Connor McGregor of UFC fame was retweeting Keith Woods and putting out his own takes on the subject.
What had occurred the morning after the riots was the usual apoplectic liberal clamoring about “Hate Having No Place Here” and the usual turning of the ratchet on “Hate Speech Laws.” The most common line about “being afraid” was made most evident from the timeline to the voice of the Taoiseach who had said “your sisters and friends are afraid of you.”
If the waves of mass immigration into America and Europe have been any indication, the fear and questioning of why it is unsafe for women to walk alone at night in city streets is met with the liberal cognitive dissonance of not being allowed to discuss race or the impact of immigration without being called a racist. The “nation of immigrants” mantra whose origins come from the United States, has been dropped by progressive Irish and foreigners alike. This interaction, with
John Carter’s on point reply highlights this cognitive dissonance.
This cognitive dissonance is the consequence of stripping away any larger group identity away other than the individual. From the “sacks of meat with electrical signals” to emphatic recitation from libertarians that “the smallest minority is the individual” our current form of progressive liberalism has emphasized the desire to be inclusive of the other while removing any sense of collective identification as the BBC and other programs inform us that Europe and America were always this diverse and that the perennial enemy of all Westerners has been those evil white racists.
The late Joseph Sobran discussed this in his 1985 “Notes for The Reactionary of Tomorrow” writing;
Put another way, liberalism cultivates alienation. It does so because it has become a form of alienation. It has a heavy investment in estrangement. It is primarily interested in emergencies and social pathologies, and it makes policy prescriptions on the basis of abnormal situations, with no concern for the possible impact on the normal. It finds disease everywhere, without offering a useful image of health. And its remedies aggravate real diseases: redistribution, “gay rights,” abortion on demand, appeasement–none of these policies has kept its promises, but liberalism was never really interested in the results.
There are two possible basic attitudes toward social reality. One of these, as I say, has many names, but I will call, it, for convenience, Nativism: a prejudice in favor of the native, the normal, and so forth, reaching an extreme in lynchings and pogroms. Its most ghastly form was German National Socialism.
The other attitude I am forced, for lack of a better word–or any word at all–to call Alienism: a prejudice in favor of the alien, the marginal, the dispossessed, the eccentric, reaching an extreme in the attempt to “build a new society” by destroying the basic institutions of the native. The most terrible fulfillment of this principle is Communism.
This alienism, to build a new society ranging from fifteen minute cities to replacement migration is compounded that any nativist or nationalist tendency is the prelude to Nazism is how we’ve watched everyone from William F. Buckley Jr. to Donald Trump be called fascists or “crypto-Nazis.” Eat your heart out Jacques Derrida, the real ghost haunting the West is Hitler, not Marx.
Despite non-stop attempts to blot out identity and reterritorialize the West that nations like Britain or America have “always been diverse” whether this be with fantasy period pieces like Netflix’s Bridgerton to racially progressive, antifacists gangsters of Peaky Blinders, people vote along their ethnic and political interests. Ed West, writing in The Telegraph back in 2012 said the following:
Yet people in multi-ethnic societies do tend to vote on ethnic lines. In the United States 96 per cent of African-Americans voted Democrat in 2008, but no one criticised them for it. And Southern whites at the same election voted Republican by 73-27 per cent and in Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana 85 per cent voted for the GOP.
Liberals are baffled and infuriated that poor whites vote Republican, yet voting on tribal grounds is a feature of all multi-ethnic democracies, whether it’s Northern Ireland, Lebanon or Iraq. The more a majority becomes a minority the more tribal its voting becomes, so that increasingly the Republicans have become the “white party”; making this point indelicately got Pat Buchanan the sack, but many others make it too.
Will it happen here? The patterns are not dissimilar. In the 2010 election the Conservatives won only 16 per cent of the ethnic minority vote, while Labour won the support of 72 per cent of Bangladeshis, 78 per cent of African-Caribbeans and 87 per cent of Africans. The Tories are slightly stronger among British Hindus and Sikhs – mirroring Republican support among Asian-Americans – who are more likely to be home-owning professionals and feel less alienated.
The Economist recently asked if the Tories had a “race problem”, but it may just be that democracy has a race problem. The American experience, where all Republican gains over the previous half-century have been among lower- and middle-class whites, shows where Britain is probably heading.
Democratic politics are existential wars fought without guns or bombs (usually) but by the ballot box, and only tend to heat up when the issues of actual existence are now being thrown into question. Upset that Republicans won an election, putting Supreme Court Justices trying to remove your existential, Moloch-Given Right to Kill Your Baby? Better try and kill Brett Kavanaugh. This is why each election for the political Left is the “most important election of our lifetimes” or why The Economist magazine ranks Donald Trump as the biggest threat to the world in 2024 above Nuclear Conflict, Climate Change, or Judgement Day.
Our politics and the question of polarization has been met with the blatant reality that man’s tolerance is incredibly limited when coming into contact with political enemies, and that we’re constantly in an environment where our media catered directly to getting us to pay attention to what our political enemies, foreigners, or fellow countrymen are saying at any point in time 24/7 if you opt to plug in. Even if you don’t plug in, and wish to be left alone, the media missionaries will come to your door not with a bible but with a digital battering ram. In 1977, Dr. Marshall McLuhan was interviewed on The Mike McManus show. The following was discussed:
[McManus]Way back in the early fifties you predicted that the world was becoming a global Village.
[McLuhan]We are going back into the bicameral mind that is tribal, collective, without any individual consciousness.
[McManus]But, it seems, Dr. McLuhan, that this tribal world is not friendly.
[McLuhan]No, tribal people, one of their main kinds of sport is butchering each other. It is a full-time sport in tribal societies.
[McManus]But, I had some idea as we got global and tribal we were going to try to –
[McLuhan]The closer you get together, the more you like each other? There is no evidence of that in any situation that we have ever heard of. When people get close together, they get more and more savage and impatient with each other.
[McManus]Why is it? Is it because of the nature of man?
[McLuhan]His tolerance is tested in those narrow circumstances very much. Village people are not that much in love with each other. The global village is a place of a very arduous interfaces and very abrasive situations.
[McManus]Do you see any pattern of this in, for example the desires of Quebec to separate?
[McLuhan]I should think that they are feeling very abrasive about the English community and about the way the American south felt about the Yankee north a hundred years ago.
[McManus]Is this going to be a pattern right around the world?
[McLuhan]Apparently, separatisms are very frequent all over the globe at the present time. Every country in the world is loaded with regionalistic and nationalistic little groups.
[McManus]But in Quebec for example, like do you define it as the quest for identity?
[McLuhan]Yes, all forms of violence are quests for identity. When you live out on the frontier, you have no identity. You are a nobody. Therefore, you get very tough. You have to prove that you are somebody. So you become very violent. Identity is always accompanied by violence. This seems paradoxical to you? Ordinary people find the need for violence as they lose their identities. It is only the threat to people’s identity that makes them violent. Terrorists, hijackers – these are people minus identity. They are determined to make it somehow, to get coverage, to get noticed.
[McManus]And all this is somehow an effect of the electronic age?
[McLuhan]No, but people in all times have been this way. In our time, when things happen very quickly, there’s very little time to adjust to new situations at the speed of light. There is little time to get accustomed to anything. Even radio has sent tribal societies around the globe up the wall with intensity of feeling. One of the major violence makers of our century has been radio. Hitler was entirely a radio man and a tribal man.
Westerners have been told that these migrants are the “New Germans” or that Ireland in 2040 will have more migrants and people not of Irish origin to attract more capital investment and be one of the best places to be in Europe, whilst knife crime, ethnic rape gangs, and welfare fraud run rampant in a spiritually and culturally deracinated Europe. Tribally speaking we are there, tweeting, posting, recording video onto a never-ending, never sleeping media cycle that demands you see the reality of what’s in front of you and what’s coming your way from your foes at all times. It would drive a man to madness, to radicalism, to understanding that one can live by a consumer identity alone.
Great despair leads to a search for meaning and trying to reconcile that the great society did not go as intended, or that Suella Braverman’s comment multiculturalism has failed is just the plain truth. McLuhan’s point, a point made throughout the ages is that violence is the quest and pursuit of an identity. Frederick Jackson Turner said the same of the violence of the American Frontier being the best form of “Americanization” for incoming European Immigrants.
The Frontier today is making sense of what it means to be Irish, American, German, Britain, etc., in an age where acknowledging immutable characteristics for Ethnic Europeans is verboten. So as wanton racial violence takes place across the West, and as the celebration parallax continues in the face of unwanted immigration violence will indeed become part and parcel as identity and naked reality clash. The problem that will have to be overcome is the nature of political control, because for now every violent action in defense or reassertion of identity in this tribal world of ours will just be more ammunition to lock up Ethnic Europeans.
Ireland is a nation with a rich culture, history, and a myriad of traditions that should not be erased by “multifaith areas” or by masses who will not learn languages and smile knowing the demographic time bomb is ticking. Things are getting violent, people are searching more meaning and identity, and everyone knows that Irish children getting knifed by Algerians wasn’t commonplace in our lifetimes and it doesn’t have to be anymore.

It's Never Over
It's Never Over
By: Pastor Andrew Isker
The holiday of Thanksgiving is one of the last remaining aspects of traditional America that has survived the cultural revolution. For most Americans it is simply a part of normal life: a day off, a day to eat turkey, stuffing, and cranberries, a day to watch football and spend time with family. But the holiday itself has its origins in the Puritan founding of America, and this alone is reason for the ongoing cultural revolution to seek its destruction.
The left will not be content to allow commercialized subversion of a Christian holiday—much like Christmas—to do its secularizing work. They will not be content to let Thanksgiving be about a Macy’s parade of floats about “product” and NFL games with John Madden’s turducken going to the winner, all filled with Black Friday ads to buy barely discounted Chinese manufactured goods.
No, the leftwing onslaught’s appetite is insatiable and even a commercialized, once-Christian holiday cannot be tolerated. “Don’t you know the American founding was evil? Don’t you know that the Puritans were religious bigots who criminalized homosexuality and that they were colonizers who genocided indigenous peoples?” No, the woke must eradicate it from memory, just as they demanded Robert E. Lee’s statue be publicly melted down and repurposed into a shrine to their saints like Harvey Milk or George Floyd.
But for the growing number of those who wish to preserve the historic American way of life, the ideological battle over our holidays is one we are now willing to fight.
For far too long, as the left assailed everything we love, the historic American sat idly by or even objected when anyone raised the alarm. “You are politicizing Christmas or Thanksgiving! Can’t you enjoy the time with your family!” Anyone who objected to our holidays being subverted was attacked, while those doing the subversion were given every benefit of the doubt. But now, as blissful lack of awareness of the revolution is impossible to maintain, our people are beginning to summon the will to stand up for what is ours.
And this is the point that we must understand deep in our bones: Thanksgiving is inevitably political. It is a celebration of a people who left a land that had severely persecuted them for their faith, to found a new Christian nation. This is unmistakably a political act. They came to the New World to establish a colony that grew into a nation. They were “colonizers.” The common phrase on the online right—“the woke are more correct than the mainstream”—rings true. They did bring Christian civilization to a barbaric wilderness. They did colonize a mostly barren land, and from that colony built a nation that would grow over centuries to become a global empire. The woke are correct in that this holiday is political and that it is a celebration of colonization.
The normie who just wants to grill eat turkey who tells you to “stop politicizing things” is wrong. The woke are, of course, wrong, too, to hate this holiday with every fiber of their being. Without the courage and faith of the Puritans there would be no America. This is, naturally, why they hate it.
But we don’t just celebrate Thanksgiving to “own the libs.” That would be such a facile and vain primary reason to do anything. We celebrate it because it is a quintessential celebration of the American founding. Thanksgiving is America. It is a celebration of Christian America. And even more than this, for those of us who wish for our nation to return to its Christian roots it is an example of what we can do, today.
Think of the example of these men and women (and children). For decades they were persecuted, first by Queen Mary’s efforts at counter reformation, they by the Church of England. The kind of persecution they underwent makes our current government—which imprisons people for non-violent, unscheduled tours of the capitol and for making memes—seem like a free country in comparison. They were killed, beaten, imprisoned, lost homes, businesses and wealth, and even driven into exile in a foreign land.
They expended great wealth to acquire a royal charter, gather supplies, and hire a ship for a dangerous voyage across the an ocean, all to live in a dangerous wilderness. It is difficult to place yourself in their shoes. Could I do this? Could I load my wife and children into a crowded, cold, wet ship for months? And then arrive in a barren land just before winter, knowing at any moment savage warriors could descend upon us and slaughter us all? Could I go to such lengths to be free? Would I dare do such a thing? But they did. The entire world was against them. They were a tiny minority even in their own country. They were despised and hated. If anyone had any license to despair, to blackpill, to say “it’s over” they did.
But they did not. They faced a brutal winter that killed off more than half of the original colonists. If you took your family on the Mayflower , by the first Thanksgiving if you survived, almost certainly your spouse, or a few of your children did not. After this, they could have given up. They could have said it is an impossible dream. An insane dream. But they did not. They were driven by a zeal to build a Christian nation. A place where they could collectively, as a people, practice their faith together. To them, such a dream was worth dying for. Such a dream was worth losing everything for.
Thanksgiving is a celebration of Christians who understood it is never over. No matter how few there are. It is not over. No matter how few there are who desire the goodness of a Christian people having a Christian society, it is never over. There are far more Christians today in America who desire to live as a Christian people than there were Puritan separatists in 17th Century England. From their resolute faith this small group built a nation as powerful as any in human history. And that nation was once Christian.
For those of us who want that nation to once again be Christian, Thanksgiving is a reminder and a promise that there is still hope left.

Neil Oliver: For decades something deliberately disruptive has been forced on the people of the West
Skeletal Remains Of 150 English Children Starved And Worked To Death In Factories Show No Evidence Of ‘White Privilege’
(The Surrey Comet UK) Scientists have uncovered the first direct, grisly evidence of the harrowing lives of children known as “pauper apprentices” who were forced into labour during industrialization in England:
“Lead author Rebecca Gowland, a professor in the Department of Archaeology, Durham University, said: “This is the first bio-archaeological evidence for pauper apprentices in the past and it unequivocally highlights the toll placed on their developing bodies.
“To see direct evidence, written in the bones, of the hardships these children had faced was very moving.
“It was important to the scientists and the local community that these findings could provide a testimony of their short lives.”
While the use of children as a cheap source of labour during industrialisation in 18th and 19th century England is well-documented, there is little direct evidence of their struggles.
For the study, the experts performed chemical analysis of the teeth remains.
They were able to identify the sex of the children as well as determine that they were not local to the area and were probably from London.
Examination of the bones and teeth also highlighted the conditions that affected the children, including tuberculosis, respiratory disease, rickets and delayed growth.
Professor Michelle Alexander, from the Department of Archaeology at the University of York, who was a senior author of the study, said: “We undertook chemical analysis of the bones to study diet and found that the apprentices had a lack of animal protein in the diet compared to the locals, more on a level with the victims of the Great Irish Famine.”
The remains have since been reburied in a ceremony that involved contributions from the local community.
Sally Robinson, from the Washburn Heritage Centre, Yorkshire, who led the team of local volunteers, said: “It’s easy to forget that the Washburn valley had an industrial past given the beauty of the reservoirs that visitors see today…
“They were overlooked in life and treated as a commodity – but we hope we have done them some justice by telling their stories and creating a lasting commemoration.”
If these remains were of black or “indigenous” children, we’d never hear the end of the worldwide outrage — and demands that some sort of “reparations” be paid to their fellow minorities.
When hundreds of unmarked graves of presumed “indigenous” children were found in Canada in 2021, the Canadian Prime Minister, Pierre Trudeau, used the occasion to shame White people and accuse them of “racism” — calling the discovery,
“….a shameful reminder of the systemic racism, discrimination, and injustice that Indigenous peoples have faced.”
Rest assured, whatever the conditions were at this Catholic school for indigenous children, compared to what White children had to endure in England, America and Canada in the 18th and 19th centuries, they were relatively luxurious in comparison.
Poor White children during early Industrialization Era were literally disposable — they were either orphans put in workhouses — such as depicted in Charles Dickens’ Oliver Twist — or their families couldn’t afford to feed them and were sent out to work and fend for themselves.
The article mentions how these children discovered in Surrey were actually from London — where tens of thousands of unwanted orphans were shipped off to factories and millworks all over England and literally starved and worked to death — dying anonymously.
Young boys and girls, as young as four years old, were put to work in mines — and given some of the most dangerous jobs — again, because they were completely expendable and the owners of these mines and factories had no accountability whatsoever.
The 1941 Hollywood movie, How Green Was My Valley, about the plight of Welsh miners in Victorian England could not have been made had it not romanticized the lives of these miners — and their children who worked the mines along side the adults.
And much of this exploitation of children was done under the guise of “Christian charity” — the brutality of which is inconceivable by today’s standards.
By comparison, Black slaves in the American South were treated much better — for the simple reason that their owners had paid a lot of money for them, and it was in their best interests to keep them relatively healthy in order to work — and live long enough to reproduce to create more slave labor.
On the other hand, White slaves and their children — euphemistically called “indentured servants” — were treated far more brutally than their Black counterparts because they were far cheaper to buy and exploit — as Michael Hoffman shows in his book They Were White and They Were Slaves.
No doubt more White children died under these horrific conditions than ever died in the so-called Holocaust™ — yet all we ever hear about is the “plight” of Anne Frank — a “spoiled” Jewish girl who lived a life of wealth and privilege in Amsterdam before she was sent to work camps during World War II where she eventually died of typhus caused by the relentless Allied bombing of Germany.
Yet there are no museums all across the West dedicated to remembering these lost children — simply because their horrific deaths cannot be used to promote an anti-White agenda that portrays them and their kindred as evil exploiters only of “innocent” racial “minorities.”
In fact, the anti-slavery northern abolitionists turned a blind eye to the plight of poor White children in England — instead focusing on — and exaggerating the poor treatment of the Black slaves in the American South — a hypocrisy which prompted the following scathing editorial published in the New York Herald in 1861:
“…And what is the actual condition of the slaves over which these rampant abolitionists are howling so insanely? Let them go down to the Southern States and look at the four millions of negroes they will find there, and see whether they are the ill cared for, abject creatures that they would make the Northerners believe.
Let them remember that, at the time of the Revolution, the colored population of the same States amounted to less than an eighth part of what it is at present. The very fact of the immense increase of numbers within so short a time speaks for the good treatment and happy, contented lot of the slaves. They are comfortably fed, housed and clothed, and seldom or never overworked.
They present in their condition a favorable contrast to the white slaves of Europe, who live in the utmost squalor, and are at once half-starved and overworked, and who only find rest in premature graves. Their condition is a far happier one than that of many of the white poor of the North, who are driven to seek refuge from want in the workhouses, or yet of many even outside of their walls, who vegetate in filth and hunger in the obscure parts of our cities.
The heartrending accounts which are occasionally given to the English public of the miseries endured by the London poor show a far more deplorable state of things than could ever exist under slavery in America; and English travelers who have taken the trouble of inquiring, by personal observation, into the state of the slaves in the South, have acknowledged in print the superior comforts enjoyed by the latter over the white slaves of England.”
