Jim Goad has produced a short film to accompany his latest essay, “What’s With the Egos on These Negroes?“, on the recent fracas between former superstar NFL quarterback Cam Newton and a small throng of young amateur footballers, and what this shows about the black community. (more…)

As the ancient African proverb says, “You should never chimp out on a gorilla.”
In Atlanta last Sunday — in yet another sad and tiresome case of the black community harming the black community, leading to the black pundits who represent the black community demanding that the black community be nicer to the black community — former superstar quarterback Cam Newton, a 6’5” dreadlocked Sasquatch described as “arguably the most physically imposing quarterback the NFL has ever seen,” was attacked by a small throng of young amateur footballers, whom he effortlessly tossed around like stuffed animals before security guards stepped in and deescalated the situation.

Proxy warriors
As I hoped to make clear in my piece last week on the Gaza conflict, Israel vs. Palestine is much like Liverpool vs. Tottenham (if you get the football reference) in that I would like both sides to lose.
However, daggers are drawn and fighting has commenced. It is all rather a long way away, but one of the great things about the modern world is that you don’t have to go out to get things. (more…)

Sports writers and commentators occasionally use the term “a fairytale ending” to describe a particularly exciting game won late in the day, or perhaps a sporting career which ends perfectly, as if it were scripted. It is a curious phrase, because if these writers and pundits were better acquainted with the work of The Brothers Grimm, the nineteenth-century German polymaths, they would know that not all fairytales end happily. If you have an unruly child, make it read The Juniper Tree as punishment, and sit and chuckle at the nightmares that ensue. (more…)

There has been a Mr. Bond-shaped hole in the National Socialist rap scene ever since ZOG sent the Austrian troubadour up the river for the crime of being a genius. But fear not, for I see from perusing the still-active Mr. Bond fan pages that the white race is continuing to produce lyrical machete-men vying to become Mr. Hassler’s successor as the King of White Nationalist rap. No-Face Nate, a rapper associated with the Will 2 Rise movement, is one such contender. (more…)

You might not have heard, but Spain is currently undergoing its own version of a George Floyd moment. Scaled down, of course — nothing can really match American production value — but nonetheless, there is a storm brewing, one resembling what much of American sociopolitics has been reduced to: racism and victimhood grifting.
A storm — although in actual fact, it’s more like a tempest in a teacup, as is often the case with these sort of black grievances. It all started last weekend when the Real Madrid Football Club went to Valencia to play that city’s main football (or soccer, if you prefer) team. (more…)

First they came for the golliwogs . . .
. . . but I was not a golliwog, and said nothing. At first glance this story looks encouraging, as it involves the rare taking into custody of a black gang by the British police, but on closer inspection it is just a repetition of what is happening all over Britain.
I don’t know if the golliwog was ever big in the States, but they are knitted children’s dolls, usually dressed in a smart red-and-yellow outfit, perhaps with a bow tie. But have a look at one and I am sure you will see the problem. Blacks in Britain, as everywhere else, are like Thomas More’s devil: They cannot endure to be mocked. (more…)

The last week of the National Football League (NFL) season witnessed an outpouring of Christian faith. Players have never been shy about expressing their faith. They usually pray before games on the sidelines, triumphant quarterbacks will thank God in the sky after a touchdown, and victorious footballers love to credit God for why they won the game. But Week 18 saw an even more obvious display of faith. (more…)

Brassneck was a cartoon robot schoolboy from a popular comic I read as a young lad in the 1960s, The Dandy. Older British readers will also remember this comic’s great rival, The Beano, and Dennis the Menace (which was very different from the American Dennis). (more…)

Rampant lionesses tamed by BBC
Women’s football — soccer to my American readers — is often scorned but is actually enjoyable to watch, provided you actually like the game and not just the tribal and commercial nonsense that nowadays comes with it. (more…)

Beware the Ides of June
Under British parliamentary rules, a vote of no confidence in a Prime Minister is similar to a recall vote in the United States, but it is the members of the incumbent PM’s parliamentary party — 359 Conservative MPs, in this case — who vote, and not the people. The peons only get to vote in general elections, where their choice is essentially between two brands of the same soap powder. (more…)

A bad month for the Iron Lady and the suffragette
There is never a good time to be a statue in England. You are out in all weathers, for a start, and on the rare days the Sun does shine pigeons seize the opportunity to take a dump on your head. But you do usually get to hang around on your pedestal or plinth for a few decades, or even centuries, before you are abused by humans. That, like much in the old country, is changing, and 2020 shall henceforth be known as the year of the great toppling. But the last month has seen attacks on statues of two famous English women, proving equality is alive and well. (more…)
