What Do White Supremacists Think of Asians?

[Grumblenuts]

Karl Marx was a white supremacist racist to the max.

More and more people are grabbing bites of news from mobile devices on the go—and they need a place where they can find digestible, trusted news on the most important policy debate of the day.

That’s why the Heritage Foundation team created a digital-first, multimedia news platform called The Daily Signal.

The Daily Signal provides policy and political news as well as conservative commentary and policy analysis—

Racist to the max, eh? As noted previously, where I grew up (PA Dutch country / Quakers) practically everyone around spoke in bigoted fashion comparable to those examples cited from Marx and Engels. I still live there (here) and it's only grown more conservative (uncaring / hate driven / racist) with time. Yeah, I've never read Das Kapital, but you know what's even more striking? Amazingly,.. you sitting down?... I've never idolized Marx! Not once. Never promoted communism! You're spreading smear and propaganda crafted by billionaires to protect their monopolies and billions. You think the Kochs are/were somehow less racist? The Waltons? Buffet? Bezos? Gates? Murdoch?

Seriously.. Google says: "Oneself is a pronoun. One's self denotes the perception of an unspecified other person's own consciousness. Remember, oneself, like other reflexive pronouns, is only a single word. One's self, spelled as two words, is not a pronoun."

We've come a long way in our understanding of racism since then - scientifically -
But, ya know, if you're hell bent on ignoring science..

An understanding for the grammar already exists and egregious liberty is admittedly applied as literary license to use " ones " .

" It ' s " is an abbreviation for " it is " and applying the schema " one ' s " should be an abbreviation for " one is " that does not follow .

It's time some of these Asians in here re adjust. You are not white. You are not liked by whites. Whites have stereotyped you as weak people who just take it and don't complain. You are not taken seriously. The majority of you struggle. The highest earning Asians are Indians, not the traditional white stereotypical oriental. Japanese got government financial help via reparations that have helped them out of struggle. Other Asian immigrants were allowed special visa consideration because they were skilled, which allowed them entry into this country already with wealth. Asians have been admitted into college while cheating on entrance exams for years before being caught. Yet we have Asians here constantly bashing blacks using white racist memes.

Here what they think about you.

What Do White Supremacists Think of Asians?

The reason I’m telling you this story is that I’ve always been curious to see how racists saw Asian/Asian Americans. Unlike other people of color, it isn’t always black and white – excuse the pun. Instead it’s very complicated. Because unlike other racial minorities, many of the stereotypes associated with Asians – hardworking, nerdy, quiet, demure – can be seen as “positive.” And because historically the percentages of Asian/Asian Americans have been low, it has been a non-issue. But as the number of Asian/Asian Americans increases in the coming decades and as the world becomes more and more global, I have a feeling that much of how racists see Asians will have to be re-evaluated.

Recently, I was lurking on a white supremacist forum (while researching a screenplay) when I saw this fascinating discussion: They were debating whether they should hate Asians or grudgingly respect us.

The title of the thread is “White Vs. Asian.” In the first post, the person uses pictures (he found on the Internet) to compare “white” architecture, food, musicians, art, sculpture, “beauties,” ships, athletes, “average commoner,” and “medics” to their “Asian” equivalents. I’m not going to go into how idiotic these categories (and I use that word very loosely) because they defy logic but needless to say in every category the “white” one is clearly “better” than the Asian one. Let me give you an example of one of the “fair” and unbiased comparisons. When comparing “beauties” of each race he picked these two women as exemplars of each race:

However, this is not the interesting part of the thread. The interesting part is the ensuing conversation about Asians. Readng it confirmed that the white supremacist’s feelings toward Asians/Asian Americans is complicated.

So here are some of the “positive” comments:

• I’m not trying to be pro-Asian on a WN site but parts of Asia (mostly Japan & China) are still civilized and intelligent. Try researching real Asian art and culture instead of using stereotypes from “Bugs Bunny Nips the Nips”.
• While your post did give me a good laugh, we must be fair and acknowledged the achievements of some Asian cultures.Their achievements do not equal those of the Aryans, but one must give them credit because they are far more advanced than africans, aborigines, mestizos and the like.
• I’m not in love with the Asians but I do respect them as a civilized culture.
• I don’t hate asians, or really, even dislike them. I respect many of their cultures as disciplined, hard-working, and educated.

What’s most fascinating about all these “positive” comments are that they seem to be based on some level of respect for (at least some) Asian countries and of course the model minority stereotypes. But what most impresses me is that they are able to differentiate East Asian and Southeast Asian countries.

Of course, not all the comments on the thread are “prositive.” Here is a sampling of some of the “Asians are evil” comments:

• who is destroying our nations
  a) asians
  b) blacks, mexicans, muslims, Zionists
• Asians are scum, the most treacherous of scum next to Jews, they don’t steal your bike, like Tyrone or Jose, they steal your intellectual property and use it against you. They are much more treacherous due to their intelligence, but they are just as jealous of white culture and achievements. The Chinese couldn’t get their ICBMS into orbit until they stole the technology from us. Who let them get it? It wasn’t the ‘evil’ Russians, it was Bill Clinton and Al Gore. They are the globe’s leaders in copyright infringement. They don’t respect other’s work because they are incapable of thinking in the way that created it in the first place.
• A)Who are we in debt with. They are not the “Yellow Peril” for nothing. Who was wrecking our nations back in the day, and who doesn’t need a [racist word here] to do so?. The mongols. The Chinese will become a threat to our race.
• Asians are given far too much credit and are disgusting. Even the most affluent and intelligent ones have dietary habits that can make a hog gag and the most repulsive and bizarre sexual fetishes.

You're saying I'm intellectually inferior because I'm blk.

You are demonstrating your own ignorance for failing to relate an understanding for a distribution .

Perhaps try gauging your own intelligence along the distribution ; and , for example , suppose your intelligence quotient represents the mean , then half of others would be less intelligent and half would be more intelligent .

Where would you perceive your intelligence quotient would land relative with the mean IQ supposed for blacks ?

Perhaps now you may be ready to ask yourself the same question as you have asked , " Man up and talk about what should be done with the millions of intellectually inferior blk ppl " .

The tasks that individuals do each day do not suppose that everyone needs to function at exceptional levels , though advancements are most often determined by exceptional abilities .

Perhaps investigate studies correlating intelligence quotient with professions or some other standard for success ; or , perhaps determine which proportion of the distribution is completely indigent .

Will an answer be forthcoming to the question , " As long as any other maintains tenets of creed consistent with non violence principles , what obligation is it that any other do anything with them ? " ?

The founders of us constitution crafted a social civil contract in words that did not exclude any based upon race , else individual liberties of free roam , free association , private property , willful intents , for the lineages of ham would have been excluded by its language .

The founders of us constitution did not institutionalize slavery ; neither was the criteria for citizenship included in the constitution during their time .

So good luck with manifest destiny and the coalescing of some political group who would have an opportunity to articular a more valid treatise for government .

A relevant question is this , " Why did the us not expect a us style first amendment in iraq constitution ? " .

You demonstrate your own intellectual inferiority by proving inadequate literacy , education and behavioral disposition , by making false allegations that my statements relate that you are less intelligent because you are black .

The distributions of IQ by race over lap , meaning that there are some blacks more intelligent than some whites , but it also means that the majority of whites have a greater intelligence quotient than the majority of blacks .

To make generalizations or assumptions about the intelligence of an individual is inconsistent with the former statement , and initially most grant to others a benefit of doubt as to whether they are sufficient in intelligence .

A definition of racism should require that one violate non violence principles based upon race .

Just because other races of people want to preserve their identity , to see themselves in their grand children , that is not racism .

Just because individuals do not want to surrogate another race to succeed does not violate non violence principles .

If destroying the identity of another based upon race is racism , then is miscegenation a form of racism ?

As long as any other maintains tenets of creed consistent with non violence principles , what obligation is it that any other do anything with them ?

You demonstrate your own intellectual inferiority by proving inadequate literacy , education and behavioral disposition , by making false allegations that my statements relate that you are less intelligent because you are black .

To dismiss the obvious implications of removing all doubt , you had to ignore the message and attack its author to whom it was given credit , by making conjecture founded upon suspicions from simpletons , as though that would change the general implications of the message .

Does it seem from the following statement that twain wished to corrupt the nature of innocence or to do anything other than enjoy the companionship and be a mentor the girls during an age before their attention turned to more corporeal expectations ?

“As for me,” Twain wrote three years later. “I collect pets: young girls – girls from 10 to 16 years old; girls who are pretty and sweet and naive and innocent – dear young creatures to whom life is a perfect joy and to whom it has brought no wounds, no bitterness, and few tears.”

Mark Twain - Wikipedia
Twain formed a club in 1906 for girls whom he viewed as surrogate granddaughters called the Angel Fish and Aquarium Club.

Have you found mention of direct or indirect evidence for your accusations that as a 70 year old man twain had invited the girls for sexual purposes , which would be counter to his views towards civil wrights about which you obviously lack a single clue ?
