Over the last week (and for the foreseeable future), I've been devoting a lot of energy to ridding Wikipedia of even a small portion of its enormous over-coverage of topics related to the adult entertainment, ahem, "industry." Earlier today, my efforts yielded their first fruit. I have succeeded in securing the Deletion of two decidedly non-notable adult entertainment performers. Hopefully, I will soon be able to report additional victories in this regard. In the meantime, here are my first two scalps:

I am curious: The Three Stooges were Jewish. Does that mean Kev hates The Three Stooges? blink.gif

Negatory. Big Stooges fan. I even like the ones with Schemp, and Curly Joe.

Hell, I even like Seinfeld, and once read a Philip Roth novel.*

My favourite professor in college, Richard W. Steele, was also Jewish (I think), for that matter. They're a smart, clever, and creative people. I just don't like most of the powerful Jews. But then, I don't like most powerful White (Gentile) people, whether in the USA, Western Europe, Canada, or Australia/NZ, either. Nor am I real big on the leadership of the Peoples Republic of China, for that matter, or the Indian National Congress Party. Or the PRI in Mexico. Is there a pattern developing here?


*Not Portnoy's Complaint, just for the record.

Well, perhaps you're trying to develop into a libertarian. But got sidetracked by an early identification of American Jews = American liberalism/socialism/communism (easy enough) due to not having been immunized by the likes of Ayn Rand and (especially) Milton Friedman (whose book and TV series Free to Choose I wish was on all reading lists for political philosophy courses).

It's also easy to think you're seeing "Jewish politics" when you're actually seeing "urban decay politics" due to Jews being quintessential urbanites in the US (and long before that, in Europe). It's not Jews that are the problem so much as big cities and the attitudes they inculcate in people who live in them. People who come from places with low population densities are derided by urbanites as uncultured rednecks and rubes, when the fact is that these people merely have different cultures, not no culture. Knowledge of wines and symphonies and ballet and where to get the best sushi, has been replaced by other skills and knowledge. Rural people know the horrors of the inner city don't have to be that way, and know also that they aren't caused by racism so much as bad education and lack of will. The life expectancy of African Americans in Washington, D.C. is 65. In Utah, the life expectancy of African Americans is 75. There is no fountain of life in Utah, and there are a hell of a lot more firearms than in D.C. So you explain it.

Unfortunately (at least in the US) there are certain ethnic voting fractions who "don't get out much." It's not coincidence you find skinheads hanging out in Idaho or Nevada-- but it's not that these places breed these people; rather it's that these people are fleeing the cities to whereever they can. What the skinheads have failed to understand, however, is that the ideological conflict is not really racial, but between people who believe in self-sufficiency, and those who don't; in the US, "race" and "ethnicity" are only (poor) proxies for this. But if you go to Alaska or Utah you see that living in fear is only necessary if your government demands it by insisting that it do all the important jobs for you. The prisons in both states are full of out-of-state gang-bangers who came to prey on the rubes, and found well-armed folks unwilling to put up with that shit. Most of the imprisoned are lucky to be alive, actually.

That's the American West. "Bi-coastal" liberal "sophisticates" have no clue. Obama, though I voted for him, I'm sure has no clue. I'm hoping that in doing the jobs we elected him to do, it won't matter that much.
