I worked with some Russians and a Pole during the 1990’s and was able to see from the American press versions of events, as well as from the Russian and Polish versions of what happened over there that this story is very close to what happened. It was a total screw job upon the Russians by the Jews, both from in America and inside Russia. The Russians I worked with knew the facts but wouldn’t say too much too loudly, but the Polish woman, whose entire family was murdered in WWII, was not shy about telling the truth.

Now I feel really stupid for having bought one of Turchin’s books.

Sailer is another punch-puller.

http://www.vdare.com/articles/citizenism-vs-white-nationalism-ii-sailer-sums-up

Reading that exchange seven years later leaves me seriously confused. You’ve got Sailer acknowledging that whites are being displaced and proposing patriotardism as a solution, and Jared Taylor of all people had to explain to Sailer that his “citizenism” had already failed… My god.

Then Taylor says in dead seriousness, “The great, unanswered question in American—and world—history, is why the white man lost his nerve and went from warrior and colonizer to liberal and loser.” Here’s your answer: Jews.

Think about this. Sailer knows about racial differences and says we should avoid direct racial appeals to whites. Jared Taylor knows white civilization is imploding yet refuses to acknowledge the Jewish cause.

It’s almost like each of them knows exactly where the fucking line is, and they know not to cross it.

You’ve pretty much nailed it with Sailer. Really, all the paleos pretty much do the same thing – talk about some of the problems, occasionally hint at jews (or in Sailer’s case, occasionally make genuinely insightful observation about jews), but end up just making excuses for them.

Guys like Sailer aren’t helping things. They aren’t leading anyone to the truth. They are just confusing people who are already looking for answers of their own accord.

Good post. I like Turchin’s grand generalizations even if he does not acknowledge the Jewish Effects. He is kind of like Kondratieff and his Big Economic Cycles. As far as Jewish Effects are concerned, unfortunately we are no longer a nation of independent yeoman farmers who spoke their own mind. In 1820 85% of us worked on our own farms, grew our own food and were beholden to no one. Now we are all in a gigantic bureaucracy with a Human Resources Department. I think 95% of us work for someone else. If we don’t absorb it by media osmosis, we are browbeaten by Fear of the Jews(see Sobran) if we dare to actually comment. So we learn to keep our lips zipped and smile uncomfortably at at the political correctness around us. Like “Jewish people are oppressed”(that’s why their average income is twice the average Americans and they are a third of the US Supreme court). Turchin would be committing academic suicide to publish something cliodynamicly with Jewish Effects in it. Perhaps it will be in his Swansong book, when he is freed from temporal concerns, like the rest of us retirees.
