It’s official: the word “racist” is meaningless
May 19th, 2011 by Unamused
It’s official: the word “racist” is meaningless. Whenever someone calls me it (and they do, quite frequently), I feel… nothing. Absolutely goddamn nothing. I think I am supposed to feel
- embarrassed — presumably for believing what every right-thinking American believed until the middle of the twentieth century,
- guilty — presumably for having a functioning brain and sense organs with which to observe and understand the world, and/or
- afraid — presumably of their terrifying tears, their spine-chilling scientific illiteracy, and their petrifyingly poor grasp of English.
It’s not working. I can only conclude that at last, my metamorphosis is complete: from soft, cuddly liberal caterpillar to barbed, venomous reactionary death-butterfly.
Butterflies: terrifying and deadly.
Aw dang, I should have been a reactionary death-dragonfly. That would have been so much cooler. Well, too late now. No way am I getting back in the Hate Cocoon. It’s all… sticky. We might as well move on.
Who is it that keeps calling me “racist” in lieu of learning some facts and formulating an argument? Liberals, of course! Fucking liberals! Source of all that sucks! To be precise, fucking white-hating, fucking immigration-loving, fucking minority-worshiping fucking liberals and their fucking cult of fucking multiculturalism.
Clearly I need to come up with a better name for them — not that I don’t enjoy saying “fuck” six or seven times in every sentence. (I do.) How about “NAM-Boosting, Liberal, and Anti-white,” or NAMBLA? Nah, that’s offensive. Even pederasts don’t deserve to be associated with these Stupid, Liberal, Anti-White Bigots. Hey, wait a minute…
SLAWBs
There are only two types of SLAWB: hopelessly stupid and hopelessly biased. You have to be one or both to believe the things SLAWBs believe:
- diversity is a strength
- race does not exist
- the Western world desperately needs more immigrants
- every culture is equally good (Western “culture” doesn’t count, as it comprises nothing more than football, processed cheese, and heterosexual white male privilege)
- white racial identity is racist
- non-white racial identity is wonderful
- mentioning or alluding to minorities in an unflattering way is racist
- refusal to feel guilty for being white is racist
- refusal to hate all white people is racist
- openly calling for the extermination of all white people is not racist
- any white person accused of racism by anyone is a racist
- anyone accusing a minority of racism is a racist — unless the accuser is a less racist minority (blacks < Muslims < Hispanics < American Indians << Asians << Jews), in which case the accused is the racist; or both are the same race (e.g. black vs. Uncle Tom), in which case whomever is least anti-white is the racist
- science, statistics, and common sense are racist if they do not support any of the aforementioned beliefs
- freedom of speech does not extend to questioning any of these beliefs (including this one), which is racist
- a racist (by any of the above criteria) is the worst thing you can possibly be, and the use of violence to suppress his or her “hate thoughts” — and I do mean thoughts, not just speech — is a legitimate political strategy to be encouraged, if not mandated by law
- etc.
Neither type of SLAWB can be reasoned with. The hopelessly stupid SLAWB cannot understand, and the hopelessly biased SLAWB will not understand, or he will understand but pretend he does not understand because it profits him (e.g., Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Jesse Jackson’s crazy son…).
Since they cannot be reasoned with, it is about time I stopped trying.
I have stopped trying
I mean it. I am done arguing with these morons and charlatans.
So now that I have stopped trying, what am I going to do with all my free time?
Which way, white man?
Well, I have decided to quit being a racist, turn in my white robes and Nazi memorabilia to the nearest Diversity Kiosk, and settle into life in the United States of Post-Racial America, where “anti-fascism” means “fascism,” “anti-racist” means “anti-white,” “diversity” means more blacks and Hispanics, and whites are an endangered species. I am abandoning conservative “hatred” (i.e., common sense) and embracing liberal “love” (i.e., hatred). Unamusement Park will now be 100 percent dedicated to kitties.
I said KITTIES. Where did that squirrel come from?
No, not really. What I am actually doing now is directing my hate energy toward three things:
- bringing reactionism — compassionate or otherwise — to a wider audience (minus the SLAWBs, who will never learn)
- producing material to help you (yes, you) do the same
- joining, promoting, and contributing to organizations of like-minded individuals
To that end, I have created a new category of links (see sidebar) for organizations I keep my eye on and, wherever possible, join. I am a member of Youth for Western Civilization and American Third Position, and a subscriber to American Renaissance. (If the FBI wasn’t tracking my credit card before, it is now.) None of these organizations are affiliated with Unamusement Park, and I won’t claim I agree with every single one of their positions, but as they say, compromise is the mother of… good… stuff.
They don't look all that hateful to me.
You heard it here first: compromise is the mother of good stuff.

[Thank you, Sheila, I’ll check them out.]
I don’t think our liberal elites are actually anti-white. When it comes to keeping their own communities safe, they do everything possible to move minorities out. I think they’re just anti-most groups of whites and use minorities to attack such groups.
[Good point. I didn’t distinguish between their politics — what they say, and even what they’ve convinced themselves they believe — and how they live their own lives.
As others (e.g. Jared Taylor) have noted, the liberal elites claim (to believe) that diversity is a wonderful thing, being hopelessly biased — but they reserve this wonderful thing for other whites who are too poor to flee to rich white suburbs.]
Hey, any particular reason why Mencius Moldbug’s Unqualified Reservations isn’t on your blogroll? It would seem to fit right in with the rest (as well as your new theme…) unqualified-reservations.blogspot.com
[The particular reason is that I thought he already was… He is now.]
Welcome aboard. You’re in good company… not only now, but statistically, every man in human history, and certainly our ancient, wise forefathers. Like them, free to pursue Truth, Beauty and Virtue, you will find that when you make a friend, it is authentic, a Brotherhood.

“Liberals, of course! Fucking liberals! Source of all that sucks! To be precise, fucking white-hating, fucking immigration-loving, fucking minority-worshiping fucking liberals and their fucking cult of fucking multiculturalism.”
Hier stehe ich, ich kann nicht anders. Gott helfe mir.
Unamusement Park,
Your evolution should continue.
What the liberal fears is “white” Supremacy. What the liberal maligns and mischaracterizes is “white supremacy” (white supremacy = white degeneracy). And so the liberal euphemizes and expresses his fear by crying “racism.”
You feel nothing when a liberal expresses his fear of YOUR perceived “white supremacy”?
Are you sure you shouldn’t feel something more? After all, “white” Supremacy is a good and powerful thing and fear of it a “healthy” response.
[That is an excellent point. “White supremacy” is definitely far from the best the white race has to offer. And I’ve been using the liberals’ definitions this whole time! I guess I got some evolving to do.
So a more precise taxonomy of SLAWBs would be (1) the useful idiots, and (2) the ones who are smart enough to know better, but lie and identify White Supremacy with “white supremacy” for the reason you suggested.]
And so the semantic debates about what race is begin again.

I recommend you join FAIR & NumbersUSA. Both approach immigration from a non-racialist perspective (although FAIR’s founder John Tanton is known to have racialist sympathies), and both are rather moderate in their positions (despite what their critics may say), but the policies they support are in the right direction. The Center for Immigration Studies is also worth following; although you cannot join them, they are the best think-tank on U.S immigration policy around.
Yeah, I have already trained my son to be immune to the word “racist.” He told me about some argument he got into and some kid called him a racist. My son just smirked and asked the fool kid if he was trying to make a point. My son was totally unfazed. He is pretty aggressive anyway, but the loser he was arguing with was stunned that his big gun totally missed its target. He was speechless. Pretty funny.
Better to be called a racist, than to live life like as an emasculated groveling wimp.
[Wow, nicely done.]
email me and I send you my blog roll.

My strategy is along similar to that suggested by local wise woman silly girl. I tend to use “racist” to mean “annoying” in casual conversation. “Oh, your dog barfed on the carpet, how racist! It would have been even more racist had I stepped in it.”
On a more serious note, it’s interesting that the term used to be “racial prejudice.” Before the crime explosion of the 1960s, white people feared and shunned blacks based on reputation, hearsay, and a sort of xenophobia. I.e., they judged blacks when all they had was visceral revulsion, prior to gaining actual facts.
After Congress and Johnson heaped unprecedented new rights and funding upon blacks, and their criminality exploded and whites began getting raped, ethnically cleansed, robbed, and intimidated in unprecedented numbers, you couldn’t really call it “prejudice” any more. More like “postjudice.” So the provocateurs, raconteurs, and entrepreneurs of the left had to import a word from French.

Welcome to the family.
Many more sheeple are waking up to the truth that has been all around them for the past 60+ years but we were all taught to ignore, but just like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz, we can’t help but eventually look at what is behind the curtain.
Feel free to email me if you would like a list of reliable sites to start out with. I also have a .pdf collection of over 3000 books and other materials that you might like to read.
Sincerely,
White Wolf
^ This means Stormfront. Ooh! Aah! An actual hate site!
You can also learn about Israel’s “relationship” with America, among other things.
It’s fine to be indifferent to slights, but when a white person is called a “racist” there are several reasons not to ingrain a sense of indifference. White people with any sense of self are de facto “white supremacists” and there is no need to fight AGAINST this perception when one should embrace it, truthfully. Those who cry “racism” have a zero-sum disposition that tells them freedom for whites IS slavery for non-whites. They identify those whites who seek a maximum moral autonomy as “white supremacists.” The “racist” charge is not an actual slight, but an attempt to thwart and minimize a white person’s maximum moral autonomy in the hopes of gaining a radically immoral autonomy the black man euphemistically calls “equality.” The collective black mentality is anti-Supremacy in general and anti-white Supremacy as its core. Thus, it is destined for failure as are all anti-Supremacists, black or otherwise.
Welcome new readers.
To clarify: I’ve been a race realist for several months, and some kind of white separatist or at least white racial consciousness advocate for part of that time.
This post is about realizing that our opponents are hopeless and will never change their minds, we don’t need to listen to a word they say, and we’ve got more important things to do, like getting our message to a wider audience before they get brainwashed by college professors and “activists.”
Not sure why you waste any time posting comments to Zek Evets’ blog, since he doesn’t even pretend to argue his positions. I posted one somewhat lengthy comment that only addressed claims he made, zero ad hom., and he just responded by calling me a “hater” and “racist.” The only reason to address an “anti-racist” is to hone your arguments and positions, and that can only happen when they address the substance of your claims. Zek does not ever rise above the level of personal insults, so engaging him is pointless.
[I spend 30 seconds replying to each of his posts directed against me, so that his readers will know what part of my site refutes him. In this case: the original post. I won’t be back to his site until the next “rebuttal,” because as you say, there is no point trying to argue with him: he’s a hopelessly stupid SLAWB.]

Racism = anything that NAM’s don’t like.
I wish this blog were devoted to kitties. :( Then it would be speaking my language.
http://unamusementpark.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/kitteh_squirrel.jpg
I’m the squirrel. :(
i’m just discovering ur blog now. very interesting. i’m not against the ideas you present, but i’m not that sensitized to them either. you’ve got me hooked
[…] Unamused – “Flyer: Black People Are More Criminal Than White People“, “It’s Official: The Word “Racist” is Meaningless” […]
I agree.
Hail Satan.
Good stuff, stick around.
Oh, it’s been meaningless to me for a long time now. If I am called a racist, I just say “Yeah, so?” and move on. I will never be silenced nor will I give the intended reaction. I am entitled to my opinions and will not shy away from expressing them. I am one white who will stand up for my culture and my people. Basically, “F*CK DA H8RZ”, I do not have to justify myself or my views to other people. Period. If more whites just stood up for themselves and their race, we might be able to turn this thing around! But if not, at least I will have the comfort of knowing I tried to DO SOMETHING instead of standing idly by and watching the destruction of my country and culture.
Good for you. And I believe we will turn it around — it’s just a matter of how bad things have to get before that happens.
The bottom line is: we’re smarter, more disciplined, and stronger willed… when we have to be.
Perhaps we could discuss practical methods for attracting people to pro-western organizations. More effort needs to be focused on outreach.
People seem to be getting annoyed:

Kiwiguy’s link is unintentionally hilarious once you see the authors agitating for equal outcomes:
Heh, no doubt the authors will think some Tim Wise workshops are called for to make them aware of their privilege.
OK, buddy, I’ve had it. My recent email spat with Mr. “It’s a pretty surprising finding when you think of…” has excited me to a new orbit of radicalness. Let’s get to work on those hate facts gap fliers so I can start dropping them off at the campuses in my area.
@ stormy-storm-stormer (not to be confused with stormfront)
says the squirrel who doesn’t even HAVE a blog anymore :(
@unamused –
awesomesauce! (^_^)
i like to belittle the word by spelling it waaaaycist whenever i can. makes me feel good. (~_^)
heh. maybe we should totally co-opt it the way blacks did with “nigga.”
example: we should start greeting each other with, “hey, racist! ‘sup?” (~_^)
True. We could make it synonymous with “formidable” or “aggressive”.
“Don’t make me get racist on your ass!”
“The most racist weapon in my arsenal is the Barret Light Fifty, firing 12.7mm heavy machinegun ammunition.”
“St. Bernards may be bigger than pit bulls, but make no mistake. Pit bulls were bred for fighting, and as a result they are the most racist dog alive.”
Etc.
I like it.
[…] kinda like what blacks did to the word ‘n*gger’. […]
@olave – “Don’t make me get racist on your ass!”
omg. i am laughing my *ss off! (^_^)
I should make a new one. Devoted to kitties.
this is acceptable
Complete with grammatical errors — I mean, “African American Vernacular English,” also known as “not knowing how to speak properly”?
“Whar dat racis’ be yo?”
Wow, you are a militant Lutheran!
I kinda agree with almost all you say (I guess it makes me a racist) but, jeez, why all this hating on immigrants? Would it be just too difficult to qualify the condemnation of immigration, and say you hate “low-IQ immigrants”, or “culturally inimical immigrants”, or something? As it happens I am an immigrant — and I pay more in fucking taxes than most locals ever gross, I write the language (my 4th) better than about 99% of native speakers and my heart is pure. So don’t hate on me by indiscriminately unloading on immigrants.
Yeah, I am accusing you of insufficient discrimination :)
Thank you R. My response is in three parts.
First, we have enough people as it is.
Second, it is true that my problem is mainly with stupid, criminal immigrants. I say “mainly” because I want every White majority nation to remain a White majority nation forever. So I don’t care how brilliant some million Africans are — they should stay in Africa and fix it up, instead of fleeing to a White country.
Third, more to the point, the limits of acceptable race discourse today are way out on the radical left. They have been allowed to define “hate speech” for decades, and as a result, race realism is thoroughly suppressed (which is the point of this post).
Thus my positions are deliberately at the opposite (reactionary) extreme to create a buffer zone of racial sanity, which you just illustrated.
I said “keep all the fuckin’ immigrants out of ma country” (or words to that effect), and you responded, reasonably enough: “I kinda agree with you, but how about” — and I’m putting words in your mouth here — “how about just testing the immigrants’ intelligence and willingness to assimilate? Then we could let in only the best immigrants.” (Of course, that policy would exclude virtually every Black or Hispanic immigrant, which was my secret evil plan all along.) That puts you firmly in the racial sanity zone, but nevertheless about a million light-years to the right of acceptable discourse.
In other words: “you’re a racist (too)!”
PS If you are a non-Asian minority — well, first of all, hello. A belated welcome to America. (Europe? Canada? Elsewhere?) Second, you’re one in a million. Maybe rarer.
What can I say? My ideal immigrant doesn’t look like the average African, Mexican, or Haitian — behaviorally speaking.
For my part, the only reasons I support a total moratorium on immigration rather than a strict test for suitability are that the former is a better bargaining position, it is snappier, and it doesn’t require much elucidation.
If I weren’t going for snappy, didn’t have to bargain, and had plenty of time to elucidate, I would advocate a multi-part test which technically need not even be racial.
1. Tests of written and spoken English. Passing grades would indicate equal performance to that of a same-age US native circa 1965. If you can’t define gerund, properly use it in its nominal and adjectival functions, and distinguish it from a present participle, you don’t belong here.
2. Test of US history and government.
3. A means test in which you produce a resume and a career goal.
4. A planned area of settlement in which you promise to reside, 50 weeks a year, until you have your US citizenship. If this is overcrowded or has excessive unemployment (say, 5% or more), the government will ask you to find another or deny your visa. In other words, foreign physicians are welcome, but they can’t all be gynecologists in big cities. We’ll take some ER doctors for Indian Reservations, thanks.
5. Criminal background and infectious disease checks.
6. An essay describing one’s own philosophical beliefs, including answers to pointed questions like “Do you believe in and obey Sura 9:29?”
Also chain migration would be banned.
That is me, lovin’ on the immigrants. I’ve known plenty of immigrants with excellent work histories and excellent English skills. Not too many of them were Guatemalan.
