Ex-National Review Writer Argues for White Supremacy Using…Progressive Talking Points?

John Derbyshire is under fire for a controversial column about the lessons parents should teach their children about black people. (Image source: National Review)
John Derbyshire, who was fired last month from National Review over his controversial article “The Talk: Nonblack Version,” may be more of a racist than anyone even realized at the time.
In April, he wrote up a list of so-called lessons he had learned, which he would supposedly pass on to his son. “Avoid concentrations of all blacks not known to you personally,” he advised, and “Do not attend events likely to draw a lot of blacks.”
Derbyshire’s comments were condemned as “nasty and indefensible,” but his most recent article– where he discusses the merits of white supremacy and white nationalism on what the Southern Poverty Law Center has deemed a “White Nationalist” website– are much worse.
In his first proper article since being fired from National Review (aside from those thanking his supporters), Derbyshire wrote on VDARE:
The enemies of conservatism are eager to supply their own nomenclature. “White Supremacist” seems to be their current favorite. It is meant maliciously, of course, to bring up images of fire-hoses, attack dogs, pick handles, and segregated lunch counters—to imply that conservatives, especially non-mainstream conservatives, are cruel people with dark thoughts.
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.
He continued, talking about why there are so few conservatives that are minorities:
It’s just that conservative ideals like self-sufficiency and minimal dependence on government have no appeal to underperforming minorities—groups who, in the statistical generality, are short of the attributes that make for group success in a modern commercial nation.
Of what use would it be to them to embrace such ideals? They would end up even more decisively pooled at the bottom of society than they are currently. [Emphasis added]
Many of his other comments, like: “Conservatism…is a white people’s movement, a scattering of outliers notwithstanding,” seem to be straight out of the mouth of an MSNBC guest in describing the Tea Party or conservatives. Indeed, Derbyshire is almost becoming the stereotypical racist right-winger, whom many thought only existed in the dreams of Keith Olbermann.
The Atlantic similarly speculates that the author’s most recent inflammatory comments are just an attempt at fundraising and staying relevant:
It doesn‘t seem like a coincidence that one of Derbyshire’s most explicitly racist essays is packaged with a very explicit request for donations. It seems Derbyshire has discovered one of the benefits of turning off lots of mainstream readers by writing a racist essay about advising his kids to avoid black people is that it earns the loyalty of a smaller number of racist readers who will pay money for more racist stuff.
Perhaps reinforcing the Atlantic’s theory, the top of Derbyshire’s article reads:
John Derbyshire has begun his second round of chemotherapy since being fired from National Review, but we are delighted to say he was able to write this column for us this after emerging from his first day of treatment, a Stakhanovite performance.
Remember, you can help finance his VDARE.com columns (tax-deductibly!) here.
But resounding condemnation of the man has not stopped progressive outlets from using Derbyshire’s latest article in an effort to connect white supremacy to Derbyshire’s former associates at National Review. Think Progress leads the charge by noting this near the end of its article:
As a reminder, this man who now openly praises a racial caste system wrote for one of the nation’s top conservative publications for nearly 12 years.
True. But he doesn’t write for them anymore, and someone should tell ThinkProgress that it’s a bad idea to throw stones from glass houses. After all, liberal outlets have had to fire people for racist sentiments before, too.

But you’re pointing out a “chicken and the egg” set of facts. Are blacks and Hispanics more often living in poorer conditions because they’re somehow objectively inferior, OR is it because of an inequality of opportunity resulting from decades of systematic racism we’ve only begun to disassemble? Frankly, I think the latter is a more compelling argument.

Teaching youth to “game the system”, take all you can, don‘t study because then you are playing the white mans’ game… you think these ideas don’t have an effect on keeping this sub-culture down? Our limitations in life are 99% internal, meaning we place our own limitations on ourselves. However, I don’t expect liberals, even successful white ones, to understand or agree.

Posted on May 14, 2012 at 7:18pmI know this story is like playing with fire, but … I read statements from a man who is not afraid to ruffle feathers anymore, regardless of how politically incorrect (regardless of reason) his ideas are.
As far as his advice to his son, I understand where he’s coming from, and it doesn’t have to be “all blacks are dangerous,” you just have to be aware of your surroundings no matter where in the world you are, and if you stand out, watch out.
The bit about white Europeans being more successful than other cultures or races … well… Even in 2012, people who live in the temperate latitudes and north are generally more industrialized (and industrious) than those in the tropical latitudes. Check out Mark Kurlansky’s book, “Salt.” It is a very interesting history of the role of salt production and use in the development of cultures as it provides a means to preserve food for future use. Aaaanyway, I don’t see how it is “racist,” as we understand and use the term, to point out cultural characteristics that have reasonable, logical, historical explanations.

If mankind had different migratory patterns thousands of years ago, we may have seen a black Europe and a white Africa. America would have been colonized by blacks and white folk would be in the same living conditions as the African countries.
If you want to see a perfect example of this look at equatorial South America. A continent full of Europeans (Spanish and Portuguese) who have not been able to develop due to a comfortable climate, small amounts of natural resources (mainly due to the rainforests and the poor farmland potential there) and equatorial diseases.

Posted on May 14, 2012 at 7:17pmall of Mr D’s warnings are sound. none of it sounds racist esp in this day of obama black rage against White America.
Consider what Charles Darwin said, and then one can comprehend why black societies are abysmal failures: “Since the dawn of history the neg. ro has owned the continent of Africa – rich beyond the dream of poet’s fancy, crunching acres of diamonds beneath his bare black feet. Yet he never picked one up from the dust until a white man showed to him its glittering light. His land swarmed with powerful and docile animals, yet he never dreamed a harness, cart, or sled. A hunter by necessity, he never made an axe, spear, or arrowhead worth preserving beyond the moment of its use. He lived as an ox, content to graze for an hour. In a land of stone and timber he never sawed a foot of lumber, carved a block, or built a house save of broken sticks and mud. With league on league of ocean strand and miles of inland seas, for four thousand years he watched their surface ripple under the wind, heard the thunder of the surf on his beach, the howl of the storm over his head, gazed on the dim blue horizon calling him to worlds that lie beyond, and yet he never dreamed a sail.” — Charles Darwin

Posted on May 14, 2012 at 10:33pmIndeed, the whole daft notion of white superiority or a ‘master race’ was an evolutionary thought. Before Darwin and his ridiculous theories there wasnae any scientific or historical basis for racism. The Bible, for instance, dinnae make any racist claims even feasible. Mankind is mankind, Adam’s seed we all are, and naebody else! There is but one race in me Bible, and ‘ALL men have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.’ The Holocaust was a direct result of evolutionary thought applied to nations. For if Darwin is correct, we are nothing more than brute beasties, we’re just a wee bit more progressed than some others. Nae soul, nae reason for being except to improve ourselves through mutations so our progeny may inherit a better vessel of life. Och, as for we canny bipeds, well, some of us happen to be more evolved than others who fall into a rather similar genus. When a wee lad believes that, why, why he might feel that he ought to strive to ensure that only the fittest among us survive to procreate so that the world will have a better future. That lad might. . .well, might even pen a slip of a book and title it ‘My Struggle’ or ‘Mein Kampf’ if he happened to speak the language of the Rhine. . . If there is nae God, there is nae moral lawgiver. If there is nae moral lawgiver, there is nae moral law. If there is nae moral law, then there is nae absolute right or wrong. If nothing is absolutely right or wrong, ye cannae say what another does is wrong .

What John Derbyshire wrote is his opinion, though it did contain a number of facts.Nothing that he said had ANYTHING to do with either conservatism or fascism. It did have a bit to do with historical data concerning which cultures have been constructive in advancing the living conditions of their members versus those which have been destructive of it.

Now look at pockets within those successful countries…the United States for example….pockets of ghettos and non-white areas have what the second set of countries I listed have: poverty, hate, selfishness, drugs, and crime. Now look at an area like South Africa, before blacks took over they had many successful, loving, caring, giving people in the world.
This isn’t rocket science….but the problem is, no one wants to talk about it….it is viewed as racist to even discuss these facts. Listen to that…racist to discuss facts….only in this messed up period of time we currently live in

Posted on May 14, 2012 at 9:42pmAmericans built this country – Europeans have not run any successful country unless you claim England as part fo the continent. Even the English have never been the equal of Americans. Claiming Europe is in some way responsible for American greatness is denying American uniqueness and American superiority over Europe.

“We are the greatest nation there’s ever been. True, the Europeans civilized this country but, it was built on slave labor. There’s no doubt that slavery sucks!”
Slaves did practically nothing but work Southern plantations. Actually, they didn’t build anything of any consequence, and they were but a wee fraction of the population.
The vast bulk of the labor that built this country….far and away greater than any other group….were Europeans. That anybody would not know that is amazing.
And, not only did they build it from the ground up they settled and farmed the land and turned it into the bread basket of the world, venturing into unchartered areas where there were no doctors, no hospitals, no police, and they could rely on nothing and nobody but themselves.

Posted on May 14, 2012 at 7:42pmI am a regular Blaze reader & have mixed race children. I am also sick of liberals like yourself coming to this forum & trying to stir crap up. But there is a remedy for that.
Seems to me if the incidents at the Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota state fairs & other such incident shad not happened, there would have been no Derbyshire column. You might have forgotten that or assigned it no weight, but many people have not forgotten.
Question: Which came 1st Derbyshire or the gangs at the state fairs & the beaches?
Answer: The gangs.

Posted on May 14, 2012 at 8:07pmTypical ********* response. “We’re only racist because the other side is. Plus, they are much worse so our racism is ok.”
The fact that there are black racists does not justify white racism. But then again, because some of the slaves were racists towards whites that sure does justify slavery, doesn’t it?

Posted on May 14, 2012 at 8:31pmGodfather you are dense beyond belief.
No racebaiting by Jesse Jackson & the rest, things were or would be getting better. I don’t see David Duke in the news or getting traction. I do see Jesse Jackson & Al Sharpton in the news & getting traction.
I don’t see whites as racist. I look at who they marry, people of all races. With a 100,000 inter racial marriages a year you can’t tell me that whites are by & large racist more racists than black community. I look at the black community I don’t see Clarence Thomas, Sowell, Cosby, Walter Williams or others held up as a role models. I see Rev Wright, Al Sharpton (drug dealer: on film & race baiter: Tawana Brawley), Jesse Jackson, Louis Farahkhan & others held up as role models by liberals. for every White racists you can hold up, I can hold up a black racists who is more prominent & is given more air time by the Democrats.
White racists? Very few places where i would be afraid for my kids because of white racists. there are a lot of places I would be afraid for my kids by black racists or people who learned form them.
You are the problem godfather.1. Keep writing & indicting yourself. Breadcrumbs

Your logic is a bit skewed, my friend. The parallels you draw are not valid and illustrate only that you have been mentally conditioned to regard racism as our greatest problem, nothing else.
You’re absolutely consumed with the concept of “racism,” and have obviously been thoroughly programmed to believe it to be the greatest evil of all time, not understanding that the term was coined strictly as a political ploy….mostly by Cultural Marxists from the Frankfort School….. to intimidate whites in order to weaken the white power structure in this country. Classism has ALWAYS been a far greater problem.
Too, keep in mind, that telling the truth has nothing to do with racism.

It doesn‘t seem like a coincidence that one of _____________ most explicitly racist essays is packaged with a very explicit [request for donations]. It seems ____________ has discovered one of the benefits of turning off lots of mainstream readers by writing a racist essay about advising his kids to avoid black people is that it [earns the loyalty of a smaller number of racist readers who will pay money for more racist stuff].

Posted on May 14, 2012 at 7:39pmI think people should take a closer look at what Derbyshire is actually saying. I know it’s hard to do b/c we’re so accustomed to seeing racism behind every corner. Try not to conflate his points about statistical generalities with racism toward individuals. Maybe you should be arguing about the usefulness of statistical generalities instead.

Posted on May 14, 2012 at 6:49pmI personally am sick and tired of color being a point of topic on any issue. It shouldn’t matter. If it’s an issue of crime, crime is crime no matter the color. Poverty? It sucks no matter your color. Unemployment? Sucks no matter your color. Gas prices? Sucks no matter color. Food Prices? Suck no matter your color. I am sick of every story that needs to point at race, religion, sex, financial status, marital status, age or political affiliation to address basic problems that affect us all. It diverts the conversation from the problems and solutions.

I hope not. Once you go down that road it takes decades, perhaps centuries for those rifts and wounds to heal. If ever.
If white people are forced to form groups in order to protect themselves from “other” groups. It becomes a continuous spiral of escalation. You can depend on it. It becomes the law of the feud, only everyone’s involved.
Other than a complete seperation of the groups, there is no remedy except for total war. Or an outside neutral party of sufficient power intervening, and forcing a peace. (which there are none)
It becomes an engine of hate that you would have to see to believe, and it captures everyone.
Were you appalled by the ethnic cleansing in Kosovo? Does the continuous tragedy in Rawanda chill your blood?
That stuff is child’s play compared to what would happen in the US, if a race war ever really got going. The only groups of sufficient size, influence, and is common to all races would be the Church, and they would have to move fast. After a few months it would unstoppable.
