Neighborliness under Mass Immigration

  Immigration Stupidity  Race/Genetics



I've found it hard to get though to one particular Unz Review commenter why exactly the replacement of White people in America with a growing "beige" population a bad thing. He's just fine with it. The guy's a Physicist, someone who shouldn't have a problem with numbers and logic.

We've written plenty about mass immigration over the decade Peak Stupidity has been in business. If you don't already know where we stand, the reader can find a thousand or so posts with the Immigration Stupidity topic key and determine this pretty quicklly.

However, we did put in a disclaimer of sorts, very early on in the post Beans, Beaners, and Political Correctness (at the top of that post) about our problem with mass immigration vs any problems with particular immigrants. As I wrote there, I didn't do this out of fear of offending people - it's way too late for that now! However, I really have gotten along very well with people from a number of places around the world, as friends and more.
The people I am talking about fit into America, back when that was just the thing to do, except for the politically correct part, so that works out great for me. Yeah, I'm really not writing this to cover my ass - it's true and needed to be said. Anyhoo ...
Today, I will write starting with those thoughts. "Yes, I know a really nice family of Hispanics, so what's the problem?" (... with America becoming Latin America del Norte.)

On this semi-rural piece of land we have, a couple of pieces of (UPS) mail came to our place by mistake. I noted the Hispanic name of the recipient and had some thoughts along the lines of "Should I bother? Would they do the same for me?" Different peoples are NOT the same in this respect, competence, caring, doing the right thing... This address, though was close by*, and I remembered something about the family there.

I'd only met the one High School girl by the driveway before. She was not only friendly and intelligent sounding, but her English was very good. (There are others around who speak only Spanish in their own Hispanic world nearby.) For a mobile home, this family's residence is decorated very nicely - even the mailbox has a flower pot with fresh flowers. They've got 4 vehicles and a couple of dogs that, while still upset about my walking toward the property don't seem too mean when I get close. That's pretty... well, rural American.

"See?! What have you got against the Hispanics?" is a natural question for someone who doesn't think things through. Sure, we have the news stories and personal stories of thefts, drunk driving deaths, gang killings, molestations of kids, and just bad, bad hombres. We have the stats that, contrary to some who supposedly know better, cough, cough, Ron Unz, cough, show they are a more violent people IN GENERAL.

But, there are loads of good people. Maybe, after some years, they will generally stop littering the roads, just as Americans learned to do a half century back. Maybe they will understand that just because something laying around on my property is not in use, that doesn't make it theirs. Maybe they will drive drunk less. Maybe they will adjust to American norms and criminality will go down.

OTOH, maybe not, for 3 reasons that go together:

1) This is MASS IMMIGRATION we've been undergoing. In large batches, there is no reason for anyone from these origins of mass immigration to learn American ways. I'd be the same, were I bugged out to a village with 1,000 other Americans down in Uruguay. (We WILL get to those posts!)

2) Genetics. Latin Americans have a significant amount of European blood, but the rest comes from the violent savage Aztecs, Incas, Toltecs, you name it. It doesn't just disappear over half a millenium. Were we to get all Conquistador Americans**, some of the traits we see might not show up strongly. However, that's not who's been coming, and, for the political reason that they promote mass immigration of the rest, I don't want them here anyway. (Except that one, really nice guy who got to the VDare castle late because he'd thought it was in Berkeley, California! Oh, and a number of friends, of course.)

3) Culture comes from genetics. What certain people can't get into their heads is that a Latin American population here will make this place run like Latin America. The level of competence and caring will be the same as it is down south. "Import the 3rd World, become the 3rd World."

Let's say it miraculously doesn't work like that here, what with the Magic Dirt and all, and Hispanics DO generally become good, responsible Americans, like the nice neighbors I mentioned. Should we be just OK with that?

The American White people will have been replaced. Is that just OK with people. One possible reason many people don't get upset with that thought is that among all the other mass immigration, compared to Somalians or Pakis or some sand dwellers, these people are pretty normal. They don't look too weird, at least. In this century, especially over last decade, Hispanics are the cleanest dirty shirt***, i.e., the least foreign foreigners.

Sure, that's the case.

However, it STILL wouldn't be OK to accept that and give up, no matter how nice plenty of individuals are. Yes, I brought the packages over. I was hoping to say hello to someone there, but I just had to leave them in/on the nice mailbox with the flowers...



* I really can't blame the UPS guy much for this one. As much as I deride the use of GPS as the final word, in this case it might have helped, as the position of the intended recipient's mailbox could have easily led him astray. The GPS might have shown the yard an house in the correct position.

** H/t, Steve Sailer.

*** I believe that metaphor comes from the Johnny Cash song Sunday Morning Coming Down, but I've gotta look into this some more.

Abstract

While the Covid mRNA vaccines may have provided a therapeutic effect during the fall 2021 B.1.617.2 variant wave, helping to keep some vulnerable individuals out of the hospital, this benefit did not translate into reduced infection rates or into any arguable offset in overall mortality.

In contrast, the Week 14, 2021 inception of the mRNA vaccine has led to a pronounced and pervasive inflection in mortality across multiple-dozens of ICD codes. This shift has resulted in more than 900,000 excess deaths from causes other than Covid or non-natural means (see Charts 3b and 4c). These deaths have come mainly as a result of the vaccine itself (see Charts 3c and 3d) – a mortality total which is 27 times greater than the 33,000 lives the CDC claimed could have been saved by the B.1.617.2-valent vaccine during the Delta Variant wave. Nations with a low rate of Covid and high rate of mRNA vaccination serve to confirm both the timing and cause of this excess mortality.

The mRNA Vaccine Continues to Kill 1,500 to 2,500 Americans per Week Now – (See Charts 3, 4c, 10, 11, 12, and 13)

We Also Have a Cancer Emergency Developing in Its Early Stages – (See Charts 6, 7, and 11)

PS: Thanks for that personal report, Alarmist. So, it's not like your woman doctor believed all of the government lies, but she was very careful not to buck the program. I'm glad she at least admitted some truth about the whole Kung Flu fiasco*, the medical side of it, that is.

I wrote a post before relating that our pediatrician told us to go elsewhere. I used to really like this lady. I know we went to her when our boy was only 2, due the one incident where she wanted to make sure he was developing OK, because he didn't speak much then. "Maybe you should come back in 3 months." That was probably a combination of concern and ass-covering and possibly good business. My wife and I looked at each other, thinking "nah". I said "Uhh, maybe we'll just call in 3 months and let you know."

I joked to my wife that, let's say he still didn't say much, if we told the doc otherwise, she might say "OK, well put him on the phone."

Anyway, last summer, because my wife wants no more vaccinations of any kind for our kid, and we both mildly disrespected the PanicFest, she told us to find another pediatrician.


* I suppose fiasco has the wrong connotations, as with iSteve's "Merkel's boner" regarding her inviting in millions of young Moslem men into Germany. "Boner" implies a mistake. It was purposeful ruination by Merkel, IMO, and this PanicFest was generally purposeful on some level.

PS: "The quality of comments in the general articles at Unz is rarely worth the time." Agreed. I only started realizing a couple of years ago that there are loads of foreigners writing in. I get the feeling most of them are just there to trash all things America.

They can't write so freely on websites in their own country, thinking mostly about the Chinese contingent here, and we all admit that TUR has very well-functioning comment thread software. I also believe that some of the foreign commenters are there to propagandize, some possibly paid.

PS

Shouldn't we have been able to quantify "Covid vaccine-induced deaths" and "vaccine injuries" by now? Determined good estimates. (We need to remember that life is not a black-white game of "alive bodies vs. dead bodies"; quality of life and quality of health matter.)

A few people who have tried. They found it's likely something well into the hundreds of thousands dead in the US, subject to a multiplier to get "expected live-years lost."

The vaccine was demonstrably more dangerous to people under a certain threshold age (and to many above the age if in otherwise excellent condition).

I have seen no momentum towards any truth commission on the Covid experience, although some of the leading figures got big boosts from Trump winning (e.g., Jay Battacharya has a major federal government position, Director of the National Institutes of Health, the position long held by Fauci ally Francis Collins). Has there been anything on it from the Trump-II administration? I don't remember anything.

My doctor in the EU asked if I wanted the Vaxx, and was not surprised when I said ‘no,’ but kind of looked sad. She told me that if I caught the Kung Flu, she could prescribe something, so I asked if it would be Ivermectin. She admitted that she was not permitted to prescribe that, but could prescribe Paxlovid. I told her I read the research results and it had proven to be as useless as the vaxx. Then I told her I had brought Ivermectin and Budenoside from the US, and she said, “That’s good… I hope it works.” Doctors in the EU are hopelessly hobbled by big med and big pharma.

But it’s not just doctors. The head of one of Germany’s health insurers was dismissed for suggesting claims and deaths were up due to complications with the vaxxes.

PS: That was a double oversight on my part, Mr. Hail. You did write "published", and even though I didn't get that it was not a Ron Unz authored article, I did see Hans Vogel's name but promptly forgot.

Anyway, I just read the article - the covid "Plandemic" discussion is only a small part of the article though. It is about the field of medicine particularly in Europe, where I assume Mr. Vogel lives. I'm not sure I agree 100% with him. I probably won't spend the time on the 200 or so comments.

With that intro. and the trashing of the medical profession, no, Ron Unz probably would not have published it 6 years back. OTOH, with a difference in that he had started publishing syndicated columns, he did have Michelle Malkin's there starting right at the beginning of the PanicFest. Mrs. Malkin was definitely on our side on the matter. A significant number of her columns during that time were about the PanicFest too, at the same time Ron Unz was freaking out and trying to blame it all on America.

The opening paragraphs of Hans Vogel, "Medical Totalitarianism":

____________

(quote, Hans Vogel)

Two months ago, one of my fraternity brothers died of a heart attack. It is not unusual to die from a heart attack, and even less so for someone over seventy. My fraternity brother was a noted medical authority and a university professor.

Back in 2021, right when the Covid Plandemic was at its peak, he sent us all an email proudly announcing that the urgently awaited Covid jab from Pfizer had finally arrived and that he considered himself lucky to be among the first in the country to take the shot. He urged us all to take one as soon as they would become generally available.

Being skeptical regarding the official Covid narrative, I sent out an email to the now deceased professor and to the other frat brothers who were also physicians. I asked how serious or lethal the covid virus really was, if it was guaranteed that the vaccine was not more dangerous than the disease and if there might be other remedies against the virus. I sent out the same email to the physicians in our family. After a long wait, I eventually got an answer. Not from any of the two professors, not from my own brother or brother-in-law, but from a frat brother who was a family doctor out in the provinces: “yes, the virus is very serious and people can get very, very sick. There are even some who die from it.”

Although pertinent and relevant, my questions were not answered. On the contrary, the answer I got was well-meant but clearly nonsensical. Any disease can be nasty and can cause death.

The most important conclusion to be drawn was that, with one exception, none of those doctors whom I knew well deigned or dared answer some simple and logical questions!

If anything, this really shook what remained of my confidence in the medical profession. If even friends and family members would not answer some simple questions, which other doctor would?

As it turned out later, in the EU there were hundreds, probably thousands of doctors who tried to honestly inform their patients and the public, but their voices were not heard in the media, while social media were strictly censored regarding anything to do with Covid. Those doctors who nevertheless dared to deal with the issue in a sense that diverged from the officially permitted narrative and ensuing protocols imposed from above, were severely reprimanded and punished. Some were sent to jail.

Clarification: The article is by someone else. It appeared as a featured article at Unz. By "published" I did not mean to imply "wrote."

I should've written: "Ron Unz recently published an essay by someone else (Hans Vogel) that is critical of the Covid vaccines. Five years late?"

He wouldn't have published such an article at the peak of the Covid Vaccine controversy. (?)

PS: Hello, Mr. Hail. Firstly, you may have seen that I started up that now, what, 4 threads-running, argument with PD. Man, I had no time for the www yesterday, and by the time I did - I wrote 3 comments in #23 and then finally realized there's a #24 per Mr. Unz's response to the usual A123's prompting in "Bugs & Suggestions".

Anyway, I look forward to reading the article you just linked us to. I see at the top that he used the word "Plandemic". OK, but before reading (gotta go for a while), I predict that he'll say it was a serious thing (remember his deal about this one woman Californian official having saved a million lives?), BUT, his theory that the virus came from America is why it's a "plandemic". I predict ahead of reading that there will be no saying "I was wrong", much less apologize for anything. He'll go on about his pet theory, that is NOT, by any means, the main point, IMO. The point was the PanicFest, or CoronaPanic, in your parlance.

I'll write later, after I read this.

PS: Hello, Mr. Gautengvol. Yes, I've seen this. However, when he's got a lot of time and honor invested, such as in the Hispanic crime story (as I'm assuming you refer to here), it's very hard for him to back off. He won't agree with any points that work against his thesis.

Years later he might change his tune, but he'll credit some youtube video he just watched rather than the people much earlier trying to tell him nicely - most of the time - that he's full of it. Yes, lots of "hard words" indeed, often a waste of time, unless I consider other readers who may understand the other side of the argument.
