Default Re: Kevin Mac Donald: The culture of Critique

I am not sure what to think about these books and the author. Is it just another example of scape-goating, American Whites blaming "the Jew" for everything, providing thus an excuse for their own weaknesses and shortcomings? Is this an example of the traditional Jewish victimism reversed?

I rather see this as a competition between two Israels: the British Israel (aka Yankee Judaea aka "European-Americans" aka Whites aka the city on the Hill aka White Nationalism) versus the original Judaic Israel, both with their messianism and sense of mission. Sometimes they collaborate, sometimes they collide. But, it seems to me that they have cooperated fairly well since Cromwell invited Jews to England more than 350 years ago, albeit with minor frictions, which is inevitable.

Jewish evolutionary strategy is to blame for all ills of modern America and the "West" in general? Rather a simplistic, reductionist explanation that doesn't take into account other, more powerful non-Jewish elements that collaborated in bringing about the present state of things. How could a bunch of philosophers (the Frankfurt School), writing arcane philosophical treatises in their cabinets, shatter the whole, previously allegedly so idyllic, moral and traditional America, and alter this once so great country with their counterculture, so that it is now on a steady way into decline? Would it be humanely possible for the Frankfurters to achieve that, without any special, let us say, magical powers? Or it was just Jewish pressure groups, following their evolutionary strategy, that caused all these gigantic changements? My most logical explanation is that all those countercultural movements and the introduction of new immigration patterns were in fact favoured by the establishement, that it was part of their plan to shape a new man/woman (let's be PC), whilst the "philosophers" of the Frankfurt School served only as theoreticians, as ideologists, as those entrusted with inventing the system of thought that would be of use to the needs of the System. Or we can call them priests of the Church of Progress. Curiously, it fits with the Old Testament notion that Jews/Israelites should be priests among the nations.

On the other hand, Kevin Macdonald, while rejecting Boasian anthropology, appears to be all too much inclined to accept premises of the old-school American racialist Darwinist scheme in explaining the cultural differences, which is equally false, naive and reductionist, reducing everything to purely materialistic and biological causes.

Is Kevin Macdonald a White Nationalist? If he is, that would be the first major intellectual in their movement. People of erudition are anyway a phenomenon of rather rare occurrence in their ranks: they haven't had one ever since Revilo Pendleton Oliver died thirteen years ago.

From these reviews, it appears that he is a serious researcher, although it is not clear whether he has command of the Hebrew language, which would be an indispensable prerequisite for anyone wanting to research this matter through in a thorough manner. He should be able to read the sources in the original.

In some matters, he hit the nail, for example, when he is speaking about the Holocaust mythology or about the generally prevailing double standards when different crimes and mass-murders are referred to in the public discourse (the "unicity of the holocaust").

In fact, I am planning on buying his books and reading them because, although I will not probably agree with many theses expounded in them, I have the impression that they can provide the reader with a lot of useful data.
