GTFOH: Writer Says White Europeans Have Run More Stable Societies Than Any Other Group

May 16th, 2012 - By Brande Victorian

I’m starting to think John Derbyshire just likes to say stupid stuff to get a reaction because if he really believes the things he says, we’re in trouble.

The former National Review writer was already fired from that gig when he wrote a piece on what white parents should tell their kids about black people. Unsurprisingly, he’s found a new home on VDare.com, an anti-immigration and multiculturalism site that is considered to be a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Society, and on that site he took time out of his second round of chemotherapy treatment to write a rather startling article titled, “Who are We–’The Dissident Right?’” in which he essentially seeks to clear up white supremacy’s bad name. He wrote:

“Leaving aside the intended malice, I actually think ‘White Supremacist’ is not bad semantically … White supremacy, in the sense of a society in which key decisions are made by white Europeans, is one of the better arrangements History has come up with. There have of course been some blots on the record, but I don’t see how it can be denied that net-net, white Europeans have made a better job of running fair and stable societies than has any other group.”

Fair and stable, just a few blots on the record? Okay John. What’s crazy is I’m sure he really does believe what he’s saying—and wants to get a reaction—because his reasoning is not unlike that of the early European settlers who had to colonize all of us savage animals who were running around uncivilized until they came along. I’m curious though, what the British-American thinks about the current state of affairs because America isn’t doing so hot in the aftermath of the glory days when white Europeans were running things. Oh wait, I forgot. We have a black president now. That must be why things are so effed up. Sorry.

What do you think about John’s words?

    Since Mr. Derbyshire wants to talk about history…..ok Europeans might start off running a stable society however; eventually they fail examples such as Rome, Nazi Germany, England has truly had its highs and lows. If it wasn’t for the fact that they went into other countries and just totally destroyed the culture and stole everything from the people (cough…AFRICA)  England might not have survived as long as they did. In addition; he needs to study the history of Anglo -Saxons who were plan old barbarians they also eventually died out. And the other thing that’s ironic is people might have there opinions about our President he actually did stable our economy from the devastation that Bush did to it. So another example of a white President who got us in a mess but a African American President who might not got us out of all of it but he got us out of most of it. How you doing Mr. Derbyshire LOL!!!!

    I respect John Derbyshire’s and his thoughtful, thorough examination of the pc establishment. His “The Talk,” agree or disagree, is strikingly well written piece on par with Tom Sowell and David Mamet.
     And Ms. Victorian, as a writer, is it your job to analyze and look at both sides of an argument (esp. those you may disagree) and then present your opinion or stance. This blog piece is nothing but an uninformed hit piece of him, and rather poor in terms of facts and phrasing.

    1) “…John Derbyshire just likes to say stupid stuff to…” WHAT? Stupid stuff according to whom? Instead of ‘stupid,’ why don’t you develop an argument as to why anything he’s said is valid, invalid, should be questioned, etc…

    2) “he wrote a piece on what white parents should tell their kids about black people.”
    TELL their kids ABOUT black people. That sentence is appallingly poor.

    3) ” the early European settlers who had to colonize all of us savage animals…”
    EARLY EURO. SETTLERS were not slave catchers or the initial people who sold AA into American chattlel slavery. West Africans and Muslims in various parts of Africa sold African slaves to Europeans. The SETTLERS to which you refer seem to be the pilgrims and early bay colonies that became the first 13 colonies.

    Get your facts straight.

    Fair and stable? Many African countries and nations were doing just fine before white people came and tried to “civilize” them and abuse their resources for themselves centuries ago. . .

    Fair and stable? Mr. derbyshire allow me to introduce you to Greece. You know, that European country that needed other countries to bail it out because its economy crisis, i.e. couldn’t pay its outstanding sovereign debt?
