I’ve noticed how Auster regards Sailer. The two would seem to have alot in common, but understanding Auster’s anti-anti-semitism helps to explain his negative attitude doesn’t it, because Sailer is just a touch too forthright about jewish power, isn’t he?

Likewise William F Buckley, but in the opposite direction. Auster just can’t help instinctively feeling sympathy for that anti-White anti-anti-semitic fuckhead.

I should have been more clear in my post. I suspect Auster’s hissy fit over the VA affair was not influenced by his ethnocentrism, but rather was due to his overall unpleasantness as a person.

That particular rant of his aside, you’re preaching to the choir when you say that he is dishonest about his Jewish agenda. In addition to the excellent examples you provided, I think he had a good relationship with Steve Sailer for a little while, and then thew his patented tantrum when Sailer made some remark about Israel’s lack of importance to America. I first read of Auster’s agenda on majorityrights a year or two back, and I was skeptical at the time, but soon realized there is a lot of truth to it.

Jim, I don’t have an encyclopedic overview of Auster (as he often presumes every critic of his should have) but after everything I’ve read, which is most of what he’s written for the past 9 months and a smattering of the rest, I can agree he is an ornery, unpleasant person.

It is also apparent however that the only subject over which he ever really loses his cool and goes beyond ornery is jews. Once a target crosses his anti-semitism line he leaves all reason and perspective behind and starts spewing smears, calling his target names, saying they are demonic or less than human, demanding that they be shunned by everyone else.

It is only criticism of jews that sparks Auster to this reaction. He doesn’t resort to it over attacks on Christians or Whites or any of the traditional beliefs he supposedly defends. If you read him closely you can see signs that defending jews must be an overriding priority of his, because it clouds his thoughts and displaces other priorities even before anyone crosses his anti-semitism line.

Auster is an anti-anti-semite, someone whose pro-jewish bias goes beyond mere philo-semitism to aggressive bigotry. I hesitated to claim so, even after I first recognized something was not right, because I had not connected enough dots. I have since. Consider the following points:

He smears Ron Paul (who opposes the Israel Lobby and neocons) as “anti-American”, supposedly for criticizing US foreign policy and associating with the wrong people.

He smears Kevin MacDonald (who opposes the Israel Lobby and neocons) claiming he “hates Israel and sees it as the source of all problems in the world, along with Jewry generally” (a telltale exaggeration made by anti-anti-semites) ostensibly because MacDonald reasons about “jews qua jews”.

He smears Pat Buchanan (who opposes the Israel Lobby and neocons) as an anti-semite, ironically for “protesting too much” the smears of anti-anti-semites.

He notes approvingly the recommendation to “vote for the crook” rather than the pro-White pro-Christian David Duke (who opposes the Israel Lobby and neocons) “because it’s important”. Important why exactly? Oh right, because Duke criticizes jewish supremacism, though Auster is not forthright enough to mention that.

Meanwhile when Auster criticizes anti-White anti-Christian jews he euphemizes them as “liberals” and their policies as “liberalism”. Rarely does he note they are jews and he never dehumanizes them or calls for them to be ostracized as he regularly does with anyone he labels anti-semitic.

The man is driven by “what’s good for jews”. I don’t have a problem with that. What I have a problem with is the fact that he is dishonest about it. He denies it, disguises it, and overtly bases his arguments on “what’s good for Christians” or “what’s good for the majority”. What is clear on scrutiny is that the former priority always trumps either of the latter. I am sensitive to this and resent it not because I am anti-jew, but because I am pro-White.

Q: What do John Savage, Hibernia Girl, Vanishing American, and Anonymous all have in common?

A: They are warlike, German-sounding names that anti-Semites use.

Seriously, although I’m often tempted to attribute Auster’s rants to some Jewish agenda, I think the truth in the VA affair is that he is just an ornery, unpleasant person. VA, if by any chance you see this, I got your invitation, and plan to stop by your blog soon. Hope all is well with you.

The “partial correction” was classic Auster. Anyone who reads VA regularly could guess that the person who sent her the initial angry e-mails was that lunatic Italian neocon. But Auster, just like he did with the name Tanstaafl, jumps to unwarranted conclusions. And then he goes on to say the spat has revealed to him why the hordes of people who call him angry and unpleasant are so deluded. LOL. You can’t make this stuff up.
