Racial & Multicultural Issues

“Flouting Western judicial philosophy, Critical Race Theory says you are a racist without having committed racism, which is like being a murderer, robber or rapist without having murdered, robbed or raped. How does that jurisprudence strike you?”—ILANA Mercer, “Woke Abstractions Rob, Rape And Loot Reality,” June 22, 2023
“With Critical Race Theory, systemic racism and other Woke abstractions, a triumphant Left arbitrarily imposes meaning on the phenomenological world as a function of its will to power. It then bullies those who don’t go along.”—ILANA Mercer, “Woke Abstractions Rob, Rape And Loot Reality,” June 22, 2023
“Question: Ever wonder why ‘mixed race’ race baiters like Markle and Barack Obama identify exclusively as black?
Answer: In America and in England, black is beautiful. To be black is to be more righteous, nobler; carry the heaviest historic baggage—heavier than the Holocaust—and be encouraged to perpetually and publicly pick at those suppurating sores. To be black is to have an unwritten, implicit social contract with wider, whiter society. To be black it to be born owed apologies, obsequiousness, education, and automatic exculpation for any wrongdoing.”—ILANA Mercer, “The D-Bomb, Realpolitik, Zelensky’s Self-Serving ‘Heroics’ & What ‘Mixed-Race’ Really Mean,” December 22, 2022
“What, if anything, have Republicans done to stop policy and society from taking on an anti-white hue? They rabbit on about Critical Race Theory (CRT), framing it as Marxism, when it is, as I’ve pointed out for years, unadulterated anti-white agit prop. For Republicans, moreover, it seems impossible to mention white suffering without dragging in the ‘black experience.”—ILANA Mercer, “Republicans’ Main Focus: Showing Off How Black-Focused They Are,” November 18, 2021
“Republicans just can’t seem to protect or stick up for besieged whites and are forever searching their brains for ways to show off how black-focused they are. Channeled by conservative TV windbags, CRT is said to be bad not because it’s pure and simple anti-white racism tinged by ethnocide—not Marxism—but because it demeans the nobility and abilities of blacks. Likewise, black violent crime conservative bobbleheads lament because it hurts blacks the most, rather than because it rips through 87 percent of the rest of society.”—ILANA Mercer, “Tucker Cancels GOP, So Should You: ‘Republicans Have Done Nothing To Defend YOU,’” May 19, 2022.
“Do you think that the ‘man,’ Justine Trudeau, would have labeled and libeled the truckers as racists, extremists, misogynists, insurrectionists and confederate sympathizers if a good chunk of them were brown and black? Neva! In operation is the bias that dare not speak its name—for to finger antiwhite racism is itself considered racist.”—ILANA MERCER, “Hard Racial Truths About WHO Trudeau And Biden Despise,” Feb 24, 2022.
“I believe that the trucker crackdown in Canada is antiwhite in essence and that such an assertion is axiomatically true. Was it not self-evidently clear every time the camera panned out? Put it this way: Do you think Trudeau would have boiled over with such bile as he has done, bringing the full weight of the Security and Surveillance State down upon these good, hard-working trucker families if this protest were brown and black in sizeable numbers? Please!”—ILANA MERCER, “Hard Racial Truths About WHO Trudeau And Biden Despise,” Feb 24, 2022.
“Conservatives persist in pretending the Canadian Convoy for Freedom, which has served as a lodestar for liberty lovers across the West, was purely class-based and a multicultural affair. The anti-white impetus convulsing the Anglosphere continues to be a blind-spot papered-over on our side, although it is an unspoken reality.”—ILANA MERCER, “Hard Racial Truths About WHO Trudeau And Biden Despise,” Feb 24, 2022.
“Wokeism is an increasingly entrenched, coercive and cruel system of largely pigment-based prejudice and persecution. It is a product of a distorted and deformed American marketplace of ideas, not a free and energetic agora worthy of defending and exporting.”—ILANA Mercer,“Exporting Wokeism,” January 13, 2022
“In the Afro-American society, particularism and tribalism are forcibly replaced with state-approved national identities. So, the ANC is indisputable king in the dominant-party state that is South Africa—just as the Democratic Party will soon command and control the burgeoning dominant-party state that the USA is fast becoming.”—ILANA MERCER, “South Africa Shames U.S. Democrats By Uniting Against Criminality,” July 16, 2021
“South Africa is an Afro-American multicultural society, united by an affinity for MacDonald’s and mobile phones and a strict enforcement of progressive ‘thinking,’ attendant speech codes and cancel culture. South Africa has been made over in the image of America, and the outcomes are not good.”—ILANA MERCER, “South Africa Shames U.S. Democrats By Uniting Against Criminality,” July 16, 2021
“Disarmed of the firearm of truth, analytical and empirical—without standing our ground on the immutable truths of aggregate groups differences, while we take care to treat each individual on his or her merit—we conservatives are rendered intellectually defenseless.”—ILANA MERCER, “Murray’s Empirical Wisdom Confirms ‘Into The Cannibal’s Pot’s’ Analytical Truths,” Jun 17, 2021
“Equalizing individual and intergroup outcomes … is an impossibility, considering that it is axiomatically and self-evidently true to say that such differences have existed since the dawn of time. Aggregate group differences in intellectual achievement, athleticism, and inhibition-control are here to stay.”—ILANA MERCER, “Murray’s Empirical Wisdom Confirms ‘Into The Cannibal’s Pot’s’ Analytical Truths,” Jun 17, 2021
“Parity in prosperity and performance between people and peoples can be achieved only by playing socialist leveler.”—ILANA MERCER, Into The Cannibal’s Pot (2011), pp. 126-128.
“Generalizations about certain group characteristics are, in aggregate, valid. These, however, do not contradict the imperative to treat each and every individual as an individual.”—ILANA MERCER, “Murray’s Empirical Wisdom Confirms ‘Into The Cannibal’s Pot’s’ Analytical Truths,” Jun 17, 2021
“The American Idiocracy, however, is moving at breakneck speed to equate moral and merit-based institutions with “institutionalized racism.”—ILANA MERCER, “N.Y, Shrink Aruna KhilaWhiteMan: A Made-In-America Monster,” June 10, 2021
“If the practitioners of anti-whiteness, who already practice capitalism as consumers and producers in a market economy, were converted to theoretical capitalism—would their anti-whiteness dissipate? Naturally not.”—ILANA MERCER, “A White-Out Of Whites: Ignoring The Albino, Dhimmi Elephant In The Room,” May 7, 2021
“For conflict in society, Marxism fingers social class; critical race theory saddles whites. Deal with it! Denial is a deadly and defeatist defense mechanism!”—ILANA MERCER, “A White-Out Of Whites: Ignoring The Albino, Dhimmi Elephant In The Room,” May 7, 2021
“If anything, for its failure to finger whites for all the ills of society, Marxism is viewed as incompatible with Critical Race Theory by CRT’s leading sophisticates.”—ILANA MERCER, “A White-Out Of Whites: Ignoring The Albino, Dhimmi Elephant In The Room,” May 7, 2021
“Strictly speaking, Critical Race Theory is not even traditionally racist; it’s exclusively anti-white. It is pro all races other than white.”—ILANA MERCER, “A White-Out Of Whites: Ignoring The Albino, Dhimmi Elephant In The Room,” May 7, 2021
“Critical race theorists, odious individuals that they are, use ‘white supremacy’ to describe white existence. Irrespective of lives well-lived, to the critical race critters, whites are on the wrong side of creation.”—ILANA MERCER, “A White-Out Of Whites: Ignoring The Albino, Dhimmi Elephant In The Room,” May 7, 2021
“As opposed to Marxists, then, critical race theorists identify race, the white race specifically, as the ‘primary contradiction in society.'”—ILANA MERCER, “A White-Out Of Whites: Ignoring The Albino, Dhimmi Elephant In The Room,” May 7, 2021
”Honest demons that they are, Critical Race Theory sophisticates generally reject the term racism in favor of ‘white supremacy as a conceptual framework for understanding race-based oppression.'”—ILANA MERCER, “A White-Out Of Whites: Ignoring The Albino, Dhimmi Elephant In The Room,” May 7, 2021
“Critical Race Theory, conversely, focuses exclusively on race as the source of all oppression. Not on any race, mind you, but on the white race, or on ‘white supremacy.”—ILANA MERCER, “A White-Out Of Whites: Ignoring The Albino, Dhimmi Elephant In The Room,” May 7, 2021
“The true victims of the critical race miseducation are white kids, as they are the sole repository of hate and aggression in this critical-race blitzkrieg.”—ILANA MERCER, “A White-Out Of Whites: Ignoring The Albino, Dhimmi Elephant In The Room,” May 7, 2021
“Not one of the anointed critics of the critical-race bile has stated the obvious, and that is that, while white kids are brow-beaten; black and brown kids are buoyed by Critical Race Theory; they come up smelling like roses and, sometimes, punching like knock-out game champions.”—ILANA MERCER, “A White-Out Of Whites: Ignoring The Albino, Dhimmi Elephant In The Room,” May 7, 2021
“The country is fast descending into a Dantean hell. The Circles of Hell into which we’ve been signed, sealed and delivered are mass migration, diversity, multiculturalism, and zealous, institutionalized anti-whiteness, with its attendant de-civilization and inversion of long-held societal morals and mores.”—ILANA MERCER, “On The Backs Of Poor Whites? How J.D. Vance Elites Become Elites,” April 20, 2021
“Much of the Western literary canon—indisputably the greatest works of literature ever—is guaranteed to violate woke racial dogma. Yet, even by Wokepedia’s telling, ‘Shakespeare is regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world’s greatest dramatist.’ What next? Shall we ban Shakespeare for Othello and Shylock?”—ILANA MERCER, “The Wussification Of The West: Will We Ban Shakespeare For Othello And Shylock?“, March 11, 2021.
“No doubt, our country is suffering a blackout of intelligence. It is collapsing under the blackhole of affirmative action.”—ILANA MERCER, “Systemic, Institutional Rot: From Big Freeze In Texas To Fires In California,” February 25, 2021.
“The American government is marred, at every level, with similar set-asides, preferential hiring practices and affirmative action, which compromise an already compromised institution (the State, where incentives are inverted, as in the less efficient they are, the more funds government departments get).—ILANA MERCER, “Systemic, Institutional Rot: From Big Freeze In Texas To Fires In California,” February 25, 2021.
“When merit-based hiring is deemed racist, bridges fall down. Literally.”—ILANA MERCER, “Systemic, Institutional Rot: From Big Freeze In Texas To Fires In California,” February 25, 2021.
“The American Idiocracy is moving at breakneck speed to equate merit-based institutions with ‘institutionalized racism.'”—ILANA MERCER, “Systemic, Institutional Rot: From Big Freeze In Texas To Fires In California,” February 25, 2021.
“Things start to fall apart when the best-person-for-the-job ethos gives way to racial and gender window-dressing and to the enforcement of politically pleasing perspectives.”—ILANA MERCER, “Systemic, Institutional Rot: From Big Freeze In Texas To Fires In California,” February 25, 2021.
“How is it possible to debate Critical Race Theory, yet fail to mention its salient characteristic—that it is exclusively and ethnocidally anti-white? Easily, if one is a Beltway conservative. They complain a lot about Critical Race Theory, and construct elaborate theories around its crass cornerstone, yet seem constitutionally or congenitally incapable of calling it what it is: anti-white agitprop.”—ILANA MERCER, “Wake Up. Systemic Anti-Whiteness Is Deadly. Witness South Africa,” October 15, 2020.
“Critical Race Theory singles out whites for a punishing program of reeducation, subjugation and intimidation.”—ILANA MERCER, “Wake Up. Systemic Anti-Whiteness Is Deadly. Witness South Africa,” October 15, 2020.
“The freedom to exclude is not racist. Rather, it is the inherent right of free individuals, living severally or collectively. The freedom to exclude is a libertarian tenet of liberty.”—ILANA Mercer, “An Anti-Semite Asks & Is Answered: Is Israel Racist? (Part 1),” December 9, 2020.
“Prejudice—the right to pre-judge—is the idea of rejecting some and welcoming others into the fold. It is an extension of an individual’s right as a sovereign, discerning human being. So long as no real violence and aggression are involved, the right to pre-judge and, consequently, to associate or dissociate in accordance with one’s prejudgments—this is the prerogative of a free person, and, by extension, of a free group of people, living in voluntary association.”—ILANA Mercer, “An Anti-Semite Asks & Is Answered: Is Israel Racist? (Part 1),” December 9, 2020.
“So long as no real violence and aggression are involved, the right to pre-judge and, consequently, to associate or dissociate in accordance with one’s prejudgments—this is the prerogative of a free person, and, by extension, of a free group of people, living in voluntary association.”—ILANA Mercer, “An Anti-Semite Asks & Is Answered: Is Israel Racist? (Part 1),” December 9, 2020.
Is freedom of association racist? Is exclusion racist? Only if you are of the progressive Left. Both vicious and violent, the progressive Left believes that one is compelled by egalitarian, humanistic dogma to accept everyone into your midst on pain of punishment.”—ILANA Mercer, “An Anti-Semite Asks & Is Answered: Is Israel Racist? (Part 1),” December 9, 2020.
The freedom to exclude is not racist. Rather, it is the inherent right of free individuals, living severally or collectively.”—ILANA Mercer, “An Anti-Semite Asks & Is Answered: Is Israel Racist? (Part 1),” December 9, 2020.
“Black Lives Matter imagery is, invariably, that of masked men, women and children all gesticulating and grunting in gangster grammar against ‘white people.'”—ILANA Mercer, “Wake Up. Systemic Anti-Whiteness Is Deadly. Witness South Africa,” October 15, 2020.
“A theory, of course—any theory—is always an abstraction, removed from reality. A good theory cleaves to reality as much as possible, describing and presaging it. A bad theory superimposes a new reality on real events. Critical Race Theory does one worse: It rapes reality and loots it.”—ILANA Mercer, “Institutional Critical Race Rot,” September 17, 2020.
“Critical Race Theory is anchored in symbolism and not realism. Symbolism, after all, is not reality. What you see in an ink-blot test is not real. It’s rarely even an approximation of reality. A Rorschach assay amounts to artistic license the tester takes with his subject’s reality.”—ILANA Mercer, “Critical Racist Theory Robs And Rapes Reality,” September 17, 2020.
“Critical Race Theory has percolated from America’s tertiary institutions throughout the state and civil society. The Critical Race rot is institutional; it is the handiwork of progressive—regressive, rather—parents, pedagogues and politicians.”—ILANA Mercer, “Critical Racist Theory Robs And Rapes Reality,” September 17, 2020.
“The youth rioting on our streets are not outsiders and interlopers; they are us. It is not insignificant that the whiter the city, the worse the riots have been. ANTIFA is us.”—ILANA Mercer, “Critical Racist Theory Robs And Rapes Reality,” September 17, 2020.
“Flouting Western judicial philosophy, Critical Race Theory says you are a racist without having committed racism, which is like being a murderer, robber or rapist without having murdered, robbed or raped.”—ILANA Mercer, “Critical Racist Theory Robs And Rapes Reality,” September 17, 2020.
“Collectively convicting an entire racial group for metaphysical crimes is the cornerstone of the Critical Race Theory, a ‘guilty if you do, guilty if you don’t’ pop-jurisprudence.”—ILANA Mercer, “Critical Racist Theory Robs And Rapes Reality,” September 17, 2020.
“With Critical Race Theory, a triumphant Left arbitrarily imposes meaning on the phenomenological world as a function of its will to power. It then bullies those who don’t go along. The Right must reject this rot root and branch!”—ILANA Mercer, “Institutional Critical Race Rot,” September 17, 2020.
Critical Race Theory: “Whites, in particular white men and the remnant of a civilization their forebears built, invariably are to blame. Blame for what, you ask? That’s easy: for everything. A ‘fella’ is laying waste to a little old lady’s bric-a-brac store in Kenosha, Wisconsin: Blame the melanin-deprived.”—ILANA Mercer, “Institutional Critical Race Rot,” September 17, 2020.
“Collectively convicting an entire racial group for metaphysical crimes is the cornerstone of the Critical Race Theory.”—ILANA Mercer, “Institutional Critical Race Rot,” September 17, 2020.
“Critical Race Theory is the ‘remedial’ lens through which America’s race reality is refracted.”—ILANA Mercer, “Ethnocidal ‘Critical Race Theory’ Is Upon Us Like White On Rice,” September 10, 2020.
“In the hands of the cherished masses, Critical Race Theory has become a political power tool to exact retribution—and worse—against the pigmentally challenged.”—ILANA Mercer, “Ethnocidal ‘Critical Race Theory’ Is Upon Us Like White On Rice,” September 10, 2020.
“The words ‘preordained and predetermined’ are key to understanding Critical Race Theory, according to which power relationships in society are proscribed—and statically fixed for posterity. Consequently, Critical Race Theory always inveighs against whites and for other, more exotic identities.”—ILANA Mercer, “Ethnocidal ‘Critical Race Theory’ Is Upon Us Like White On Rice,” September 10, 2020.
“Over and above seeking to invert and eviscerate bourgeoisie morality—and instantiations of it like American suburbia—Critical Race Theory does away with reality. For no matter how impoverished and drug-addicted white America becomes—never mind how often white men are passed over for promotions, opportunities, job placements and positions; no matter the white-hot hatred etched upon pale bodies by knockout gamers—Critical Race Theory has designated the country’s founding demographic as oppressive. Forever.”—ILANA Mercer, “Ethnocidal ‘Critical Race Theory’ Is Upon Us Like White On Rice,” September 10, 2020.
Critical Race Theory: “This Cultural Marxism of a theory is an ill-founded, purely political, symbolic figment that appeals not to empirical evidence, reason and morality, but to the roiling, base emotions of rage and resentment against anyone with a white face.”—ILANA Mercer, “Ethnocidal ‘Critical Race Theory’ Is Upon Us Like White On Rice,” September 10, 2020.
“Tired of waiting on a neutered, coopted, infiltrated and compromised police to come to the rescue? Let law-abiding taxpayers hire private protection of Kyle Rittenhouse’s caliber.”—ILANA Mercer, “Kyle Goes To Kenosha: A Folk Hero Is Born,” September 3, 2020.
“One fractious group, Black Lives Matter and its their white hangers-on, is the beneficiary of ‘light-touch policing.’ The other group, for Trump and law-and-order, gets ‘heavy-handed policing’ for daring to safeguard American civilizational markers: statues and store fronts, both symbolic of a history and a work ethic once shared.”—ILANA Mercer, “Kyle Goes To Kenosha: A Folk Hero Is Born,” September 3, 2020.
“Almost anything involving the perpetually aggrieved black community counts as racism.”—ILANA Mercer, “America’s Race Reality: Inhuman, Insane, Incoherent,” August 13, 2020.
“For America to have incorporated and assimilated the unreason of ‘racism’ on such a self-immolating scale, as American society has done, is to be mired in self-contradiction. To the Greek philosophers, to be mired in self-contradiction was to be less than human, less than coherent, less than sane. This is where American society finds itself: less than human, less than coherent, less than sane.”—ILANA Mercer, “America’s Race Reality: Inhuman, Insane, Incoherent,” August 13, 2020.
“To intellectually disembowel the Left, the Right must unapologetically reject the very idea of policing, purging and persecuting people for holding and expressing politically unpopular ideas.”—ILANA Mercer, “Was The Cop’s Knee On George Floyd’s Neck ‘Racism’? No!” August 20, 2020.
“Surely, a life taken because of racial or antisemitic animus is not worth more than life lost to spousal battery or to a home invasion.”—ILANA Mercer, “Was The Cop’s Knee On George Floyd’s Neck ‘Racism’? No!” August 20, 2020.
“For America to have incorporated and assimilated the unreason of ‘racism’ on such a self-immolating scale, as American society has done, is to be mired in self-contradiction.

“In a workplace so shot through with hatred of whites, quite foreseeable is a form of intellectual reparations, where the designated white ‘oppressors’ labor behind the scenes, while the officially ‘oppressed’ manage them and take credit for their intellectual output. Unlike systemic racism, intellectual indentureship could quickly become a reality in America.”—ILANA Mercer, “‘Systemic Racism’ Or Systemic Rubbish?” August 6, 2020.
“Equalizing individual and intergroup outcomes is an impossibility, considering that it is axiomatically and self-evidently true to say that such differences have existed since the dawn of time.”—ILANA Mercer, “‘Systemic Racism’ Or Systemic Rubbish?” August 6, 2020.
“Racism—systemic or other—remains nothing but thought crime: Impolite and impolitic thoughts, spoken, written or preached.”—ILANA Mercer, “‘Systemic Racism’ Or Systemic Rubbish?” August 6, 2020.
“Thought crimes are nobody’s business in a free society.”—ILANA Mercer, “‘Systemic Racism’ Or Systemic Rubbish?” August 6, 2020.
“The statistical relationship between race and crime is as strong as the relationship between Officer Derek Chauvin’s knee and the late George Floyd’s neck.”—ILANA Mercer, “Looting Is Local — Courtesy Of Leroy & Lakisha,” June 4, 2020
“The truth is that conservatives, like liberals, refuse to candidly confront the indisputable realities of race and crime in America, reducing, instead, the reality of crime to a political theory—too much welfare, too little capitalism, not enough Trumpism. Or, the Democrats made blacks do it, which amounts to a dog-ate-my-homework argument.”—ILANA Mercer, “Looting Is Local — Courtesy Of Leroy & Lakisha,” June 4, 2020
“The reality is that millions around the world witnessed George Floyd expire on camera because he was made to star in his own State-sanctioned snuff film.”—ILANA Mercer, “Looting Is Local — Courtesy Of Leroy & Lakisha,” June 4, 2020
“Floyd’s death was a case of, ‘Who are you going to believe, me or your own lyin’ eyes?’ Which is the colloquial used when one is staring at an immutable reality, yet choosing to see an alternate universe.”—ILANA Mercer, “Looting Is Local — Courtesy Of Leroy & Lakisha,” June 4, 2020
“The world saw that Mr. Floyd was not in the throes of death until that knee appeared on his neck and those hands pressed down on his diaphragm. Put it this way: correlation in not causation, but it was not a complete mystery when eight minutes and 46 seconds into the boot-and-back treatment the man dies.”—ILANA Mercer, “Looting Is Local — Courtesy Of Leroy & Lakisha,” June 4, 2020
A Modest Proposals On Reparations In South Africa and Beyond: “Charity begins at home. Intra-racial reparations would be my own Swiftian modest proposal to counter the Democrats’ reparations drumbeat. The Botswana Bantu should make whole the Bushmen, the First Nations of Southern Africa, by returning their ancestral lands in the Central Kalahari. The descendants of cannibals who gobbled up their black brethren, during the 1815–1840 mass migration caused by tribal warfare: they should be petitioned for reparations. Certainly the descendants of Shaka Zulu owe reparation to the remnants of the Nguni Bantu clans they hounded in the course of consolidating the Zulu Empire. British authorities owe reparations to the Boers for the 26,000 Afrikaners, mostly women and children, who perished in concentration camps during the Boer War. By logical extension, how about requiring Gangland Chicago, a generational enterprise, to pay reparations to victims and their families?”—ILANA Mercer, “A Modest Proposal On Reparations In South Africa—And Beyond,” May 7, 2020.
“Blacks and whites were only just beginning to come to terms with each other and with a shared, painful past. Arguably, by opening the floodgates to mass, Third-World immigrants, the government of the day forever upset the teetering biracial balance within America.”—ILANA Mercer, “D’oh! Looks Like Democracy Dies In Diversity,” American Greatness, January 30, 2020.
“Historically, America was largely a biracial compact; never a multicultural ‘nation of immigrants.'”—ILANA Mercer, “D’oh! Looks Like Democracy Dies In Diversity,” American Greatness, January 30, 2020.
“Flooding western democracies with non-western people has created societies without social capital, societies that share no enduring bonds other than the quest to extract as much power and possessions possible from the political process.”—ILANA Mercer, “D’oh! Looks Like Democracy Dies In Diversity,” American Greatness, January 30, 2020.
“Anglo-American elites and policy makers have courted and engineered their own demise. No other group expresses such incontinent exhilaration at the prospects of turning their historic populations into minorities.”—ILANA Mercer, “D’oh! Looks Like Democracy Dies In Diversity,” American Greatness, January 30, 2020
“Arguably, by opening the floodgates to mass, Third-World immigrants, the government of the day forever upset the teetering biracial balance within America.—ILANA Mercer, “D’oh! Looks Like Democracy Dies In Diversity,” January 30, 2020.
“The mercenary, extractive approach to politics prevails among the immigrants being imported at a furious rate by the immigration-industrial-complex. Asians are especially primed to seek, and aggressively extract, advantage from positions of power.”—ILANA Mercer, “D’oh! Looks Like Democracy Dies In Diversity,” American Greatness, January 30, 2020
“Honky just doesn’t have that screw-or-be-screwed DNA to do battle with the Other’s flinty duplicity.”—ILANA Mercer, “D’oh! Looks Like Democracy Dies In Diversity,” American Greatness, January 30, 2020
“While Americans don’t see race; the people they’re importing see nothing but race.”—ILANA Mercer, “D’oh! Looks Like Democracy Dies In Diversity,” American Greatness, January 30, 2020
“Anglo-Americans hire by talent, not by tribe. Their fate in multicultural America is to be dispossessed by the politically savvy, ruthlessly racist Other.”—ILANA Mercer, “Multiculturalism gives Whites the Elbow,” The Quarterly Review, November 9, 2019.
“Once ensconced in a position of power, individuals of South Asian descent tend to work assiduously to fire pale faces and hire others of their own persuasion.”—ILANA Mercer, “Multiculturalism Elbows Anglo-Americans Out,” WND, November 7, 2019.
“Such dissembling about America having always been multicultural is no more than post hoc justification for turning the country into a veritable Tower of Babel.”—ILANA Mercer, “Multiculturalism Elbows Anglo-Americans Out,” WND, November 7, 2019.
“Our politics are an anti-white show and sham. Yet, conservatives mistake leftist, multicultural politics for the problem. They think that by coming together as citizens, the diverse cults and clans of America will transcend their white-hot hatred of whites.”—ILANA Mercer, “Why Conservatives Ignore White-Hating Politics,” WND.COM, September 19, 2019.
“Blacks are not berating Hispanics for dominating industries they previously dominated; Asians aren’t complaining about Ameri-Indians being given university slots they’ve earned. Rather, blacks, Hispanics and the rest are all piling on whites.”—ILANA Mercer, “White-Hating Politics,” The Quarterly Review, September 23, 2019.
“The logical paradox is that to warn of systemic hatred against browns and blacks is considered racially virtuous; to fear the same for whites is deemed incorrigibly racist.”—ILANA Mercer, “White-Hating Politics,” The Quarterly Review, September 23, 2019.
“Conservatives want to be nice. To be nice, one must remain in denial of things not nice. Thus do conservatives refuse to come to terms with the fact that our politics are almost exclusively anti-white, and not anti-Other, more exotic identities. It’s not identity politics we practice, but anti-white politics.”—ILANA Mercer, “Why Conservatives Ignore White-Hating Politics,” The Unz Review, September 19, 2019.
“Since the ire of America’s multicultural multitudes is directed exclusively at whites and their putative privilege, not at each other, anti-white animus is the more appropriate term than identity politics.”—ILANA Mercer, “Why Conservatives Ignore White-Hating Politics,” WND.COM, September 19, 2019.
“For working-class misery, neoconservatives and lite libertarians, economic reductionist all, will continue to blame everything but mass immigration, state-enforced multiculturalism, diversity (for thee but not for me), loss of community and sense of belonging.”—ILANA Mercer, “American White Male Misery Is Real,” August 15, 2019.
“When whites commit unspeakable acts of violence, it is said to only ever come from a place of power and privilege. When browns and blacks commit unspeakable acts of violence, it only ever comes from a place of powerlessness and deprivation. With distressing regularity, we’re lectured that black or brown evil is a consequence of systemic oppression; white evil a result of frustration over having to relinquish the systemic role of oppressor.”—ILANA Mercer, “American White Male Misery Is Real,” August 15, 2019.
“America is not racist. In America, black is beautiful. To be black is to be more righteous, nobler; carry the heaviest historic baggage—heavier than the Holocaust and the Trail of Tears—and be encouraged to perpetually and publicly pick at those imagined, oozing injuries. To be black is to have an unwritten, implicit social contract with wider, whiter society. To be black it to be born with a lifetime of IOUs (I Own You); it is to be owed apologies, obsequiousness, education, and automatic exculpation for any wrongdoing. Reparations, too, if the Democrats have their way.”—ILANA Mercer, “Driven To Blackface By Systemic Anti-White Racism,” The Unz Review, July 11, 2019.
To be black in America is more than a pigment; it’s an identity, a politics, an entitlement, a one-upmanship. This protected turf is like a medieval guild or a modern trade union. In cahoots with the state, the ‘Racism-Industrial Complex’ protects its members from competition by limiting entry into the professionally aggrieved class.”—ILANA Mercer, “Driven To Blackface By Systemic Anti-White Racism,” WND, July 18, 2019.
“White South Africans are told to accept their obligation to give up ancestral lands they are alleged to have stolen. Should not the relatives of cannibals who gobbled up their black brethren be held to the same standards?”—ILANA Mercer, “How About Intra-Racial Reparations In South Africa?” June 6, 2019.
“Whatever is convulsing the country, it’s not identity politics. For, blacks are not being pitted against Hispanics. Hispanics are not being sicced on Asians, and Ameri-Indians aren’t being urged to attack the groups just mentioned. Rather, they’re all piling on honky. Hence, anti-white politics or animus. The ire of the multicultural multitudes is directed exclusively at whites and their putative privilege.”—ILANA Mercer, “It’s Not ‘Identity Politics,’ It’s Anti-White Politics,” Townhall.com, February 29, 2019.
Covington Catholic High School conflagration: “Nick Sandmann imagined he was safe, so long as he did the right thing. But then Sandmann discovered he was hated for something he couldn’t right: the color of his skin. And while formative figures around him will hide this fact—for his sake, let us hope young Mr. Sandmann remains hip to it.”—ILANA Mercer, “Covington Kid: Hated For The Color Of His Skin,” Townhall.com, January 25, 2019.
“The Covington conflagration was never about ‘due process’ denied or about a virulent and viral social- and news media that fakes the news, and rushes to judgement without the facts. After all, the segment being discussed has a static quality to it. It depicts a noble, not ignoble, reality; one that should be impossible to misconstrue—unless you are part of the corrupt, morally inverse and perverse universe inhabited by America’s cultural cognoscenti.”—ILANA Mercer, “Covington Kid: Hated For The Color Of His Skin,” Townhall.com, January 25, 2019.
“Pretend those Covington boys were black—conservative, Catholic, pro-life, pro-Trump, black young men, who welcomed with beatific smiles the in-your-face, agitated drumming of an elder Indian. You just know that, were this the case, these black youths would have been praised to the skies. As they should.”—ILANA Mercer, “Covington Kid: Hated For The Color Of His Skin,” Townhall.com, January 25, 2019.
“RACISM: A lot of establishment libertarians have joined the neoconservative and neoliberal establishments in the habit of sniffing out racists. Sniffing out racists is an absolute no-no for any and all self-respecting libertarians. True libertarians don’t, or should not, prosecute thought crimes or persecute thought ‘criminals.’ Period.”—ILANA Mercer, Big League Politics, Interview With Ilana Mercer, November 23, 2018.
“To the commentariat of CNN, MSNBC and BBC, wanting a place you can call home while white is … racist.”—ILANA Mercer, “Whites, Men, Republicans And Other Scum,” WND.COM, August 2, 2018.
“In the postmodern tradition, the pseudo-academics behind the concept of white privilege have invented for themselves an artificial, political construct. Political constructs confer power on those who dream them up. For politics is the predatory process through which the figment of sick minds is weaponized.”—ILANA Mercer, “The Demonization Of Whites By Mrs. Bill Gates & Other Dangerous Idiots,” Constitution.com, June 8, 2018.
Effects of affirmative action: “No longer beholden to the unifying, overarching value of merit, institutions become riven by tribal feuds and factional loyalties—both in government and in business alike, where it is well-known that newly arrived ‘minorities’ hire nepotistically.”—ILANA Mercer, “When Merit-Based Hiring Is Deemed Racist, Bridges Fall Down,” The Unz Review, March 29, 2018
“The American Idiocracy is moving to equate merit-based institutions with institutionalized racism.”—ILANA Mercer, “When Merit-Based Hiring Is Deemed Racist, Bridges Fall Down,” The Unz Review, March 29, 2018
“When the best-person-for-the-job ethos gives way to racial and gender window-dressing and to the enforcement of politically pleasing perspectives; things start to fall apart.”—ILANA Mercer, “When Merit-Based Hiring Is Deemed Racist, Bridges Fall Down,” The Unz Review, March 29, 2018
“A spanking new bridge collapses, new trains on maiden trips derail, Navy ships keep colliding, police and FBI failure and bad faith become endemic, and the protocols put in place by a government ‘for the people’ protect offending public servants who’ve acted against the people. …”—ILANA Mercer, “When Merit-Based Hiring Is Deemed Racist, Bridges Fall Down,” The Unz Review, March 29, 2018
“It is in Man’s nature to dislike those who are unlike him—all the more so when they, as a group, have accomplished what he has not.”—ILANA Mercer, “Why Hatred Of Whites Is Here To Stay,” The Daily Caller, November 9, 2017
“‘Taking the knee’ is like taking a pee. It’s a waste. It speaks to the inward-looking, ego-driven, vain posturing of the Left and its perpetually seething, predatory racial coalition. They’re bent on extracting something from innocent, ordinary Americans who owe them nothing.”—ILANA Mercer, “The Tribalism of Kneelism,” The Daily Caller, September 29, 2017.
“Metaphorically speaking, free African-American politicians and activists are boiling the bones of their enslaved ancestors to make soup. The suffering of slaves is being exploited posthumously to shape discourse in politically advantageous ways.”—ILANA Mercer, “What Cultural Marxist Would Say About Looting,” WND.COM, September 14, 2017
“In the US, Great Britain and Western Europe, state and civil society acculturate immigrants into a militant identity politics. Essentially, newcomers are taught to hate their hosts.”—ILANA Mercer, “The Manchester Massacre was Murder By Muslim Immigrant,” The Unz Review, May 25, 2017.
“We dare not suggest that a civilization created by a particular people with a particular religious and racial profile, may well perish once those people are replaced or have engineered their own replacement.”—ILANA, “What Rep. Steve King’s ‘Racist’ Statements Teach,” Daily Caller, March 20, 2017.
“With the election of Donald Trump, white America has essentially told race pimps such as Al Sharpton to talk to the hand (’cause the face ain’t listening). They’ve had enough of the pigment burden.”—ILANA (January 13, 2017)
“America: Are you ready to elect another white-bashing hater as president? Heeeere’s Hillary.”—ILANA (March 4, 2016)
“The no-longer-silent majority is exhausted, sick-and-tired of being racially ramrodded. They’ve had enough of the pigment burden.”—ILANA (March 4, 2016)
“If you’re working-class and white, you’re invisible. You have been for decades. You used to be the backbone of the economy. No more. You’re still the backbone of the US military, more likely to die in the service of The State in far-flung countries. Your love of country is sanctioned provided it is confined to dying in the wars launched by Rome-on-the-Potomac. You may find belonging only by risking your life abroad in the service of strangers, or opening your home to them, stateside. If you survive the combat-to-coffin career path, your love of community will need to encompass a million immigrants, each and every year, who’ll have the run of your schools, hospitals, libraries, parks and workplace. Destined to fight against subsistence farmers in foreign lands, you find yourself harassed on your homesteaded land, at home, never free from federal aggression.”—ILANA (January 15, 2016)
“Many a co-opted scientist will second the political dictum that there is no such thing as general intelligence. If not for largely exogenous circumstances—all human beings would be capable of similar accomplishments. Speak, if you must, about the phenotype—even genotype—of all individual traits, but not intelligence. As for the possibility of group genotypic intelligence: Don’t go there!”—ILANA (September 18, 2015)
“In America, black is beautiful. To be black is to be more righteous, nobler; carry the heaviest historic baggage—heavier than the Holocaust—and be encouraged to perpetually and publicly pick at those suppurating sores. To be black is to have an unwritten, implicit social contract with wider, whiter society. To be black it to be born with an IOY (I Own You); it is to be owed apologies, obsequiousness, education, and auto-exculpation for any wrongdoing.”—ILANA (July 17, 2015)
“From financial aid (for foreign students) to an affirmative-action placement in Harvard Law School, Barry Soetoro is a Frankenstein of America’s creation.”—ILANA, “Dying for Obama’s Deadly Dogma,” Target Liberty, October 17, 2014
“Obama didn’t build what he has; he got it by grant of government privilege.”—ILANA, “Dying for Obama’s Deadly Dogma,” Junge Freiheit, October 17, 2014
“Like two pimps in a pod, Al Sharpton and Barack Obama have collaborated to keep racial grievance going.”—ILANA (August 29, 2014)
“Libertarian Cathy Reisenwitz is on a fee-fi-fo-fem’s expedition to sniff out ‘homophobes,’ ‘sexists,’ ‘xenophobes’ and ‘racists.'”—ILANA (May 16, 2014)
“Round and round will Americans be compelled to ride on a mindless, manufactured, racial carousel … for without it, the edifice of an industry built upon grievance and excuse-making is destined to collapse.”—ILANA (“The rediculous Racial Merry-Go-Round,” May 2, 2014)
“Steeped in state-enforced multiculturalism, America’s deracinated, self-anointed cognoscenti have a hard time grasping the blood-brother connections between the people of Russia and Crimea.”—ILANA (March 21, 2014)
“… racism trumps ageism on the pyramid of politically dictated Thou shalt Nots.”—ILANA (June 28, 2013)
“There is nothing dainty or merely depressing about tyrannical speech codes, whose enforcement by the centrifugal forces in our culture and politics is meant to make malleable clones of each one of us, on pain of boycotts, bankruptcy and excommunication. Political authority depends on this sort of ritual sacrifice, reflexively coordinated by the country’s Ministries of Truth—the self-anointed ‘intellectuals’ (who aren’t intelligent) in education, academia, the entertainment industry, and the churches; among the ruling duopoly and everywhere in the malpracticing media.”—ILANA (June 28, 2013)
“America’s practically pornographic rituals of public grief—what are they if not a neurotic symptom of this disconnect? A diverse and distrusting people, lacking in a shared national DNA, are thrust together by the crisis of the day. In the absence of any core value over which to unite, we Americans meet on the only common ground we share: the graveyard. We come together to bury or remember our dead. We unite to grieve over tragedy and misfortune that have befallen us for no other reason than that we exist in the same space in time.”—ILANA MERCER, “Reflections On The Boston Bombers And Boyhhod In America,” May 3, 2013
For years, those of us who’ve warned about demographics have been dubbed racists. But the D-Bomb has dropped. Its debris is scattered across ‘the field’ upon which Mitt Romney said he ‘left everything.'”—ILANA (November 9, 2012)
“I cop to Western man’s individualist disdain—could it be his weakness?—for race as an organizing principle. For me, the road to freedom lies in beating back the state so that individuals regain freedom of association, dominion over property, the absolute right of self-defense; the right to hire, fire, and, generally, associate at will.”—ILANA MERCER “National Review Eunuchs,” April 13, 2012.
“Democracy is especially dangerous in ethnically and racially divided societies, where majorities and minorities are rigidly predetermined and politically permanent.”—ILANA (November 4, 2001 & Into the Cannibal’s Pot: Lesson for America from Post-Apartheid South Africa)
“To state simply that ‘discrimination is bad for business’ is to present an incomplete picture: The market, by which we mean the trillions of capitalist acts between consenting adults, is discriminating as in discerning—it is biased toward productivity. Hiring people on the basis of criteria other than productivity will eventually hurt the proprietor’s pocket. Thus, we can be fairly certain that, say, absent affirmative-action laws, the market would reflect a bias toward productivity. In other words, what the good economists are often loath to let on is that a free market is a market in which groups and individuals are differently represented.”—ILANA (Into the Cannibal’s Pot: Lesson for America from Post-Apartheid South Africa, July 29, 2011)
“My answer to those who’d fault me for daring to make broad statements about aggregate group characteristics, vis-à-vis crime [or rioting], … would be as follows: Generalizations, provided they are substantiated by hard evidence, not hunches, are not incorrect. Science relies on the ability to generalize to the larger population observations drawn from a representative sample. People make prudent decisions in their daily lives based on probabilities and generalities. That one chooses not to live in a particular crime-riddled county or country in no way implies that one considers all residents to be criminals, only that a sensible determination has been made, based on statistically significant data, as to where scarce and precious resources—one’s life and property—are best invested.”—ILANA MERCER, Into the cannibal’s pot: Lessons for America form Post-Apartheid South Africa (2011) (pp. 41-42)
“This prototypical WASP is flabby in body and mind. He is fearful and easily cowed. He erupts in tears at a drop of a hat. He is gripped by the culture of apology, and flagellates over sins he has not committed. His eternal state of expiation is driven not by goodness, but by insufferable self-righteousness.”—ILANA (July 1, 2011)
On “Stoic, Heroic Japan Vs. Neurotic Nation USA: Accustomed as I am to seeing abreacting Americans or unhinged Haitians, these sights astounded me. My heroes have always been in the Greek tradition. This makes the silent, stoic, refined Japanese my heroes.”—ILANA (March 18, 2011)
“On the imagined martyrdom of one Shirley Sherrod, now the most celebrated public servant in the United States: The Obama posse overestimated the extent of Sherrod’s animus for whites. She turned out to be a mere mezzanine-level racist. Sherrod’s is a tale of the triumph of low expectations and black racial exculpation in contemporary America. The acme of ethics in American: a black woman who has graduated from hard-core to soft bigotry.”—ILANA (July 23, 2010)
“Quotas are a perfectly logical, if diabolical, extension of the regulation of private property courtesy of the Civil Rights Act, whereby in an attempt to shape American society in politically pleasing ways, people have been coerced into liking, hiring or renting against their will or better judgment.”—ILANA (April 2, 2010)
“Notwithstanding the claims of the ‘multicultural noise machine,’ the Declaration—whose proclamation, on July 4, 1776, we celebrate—was as monocultural as its author.”—ILANA (July 4, 2008)
“Blacks have a sense of humor. They have fun with the nasty ‘N’ word. Etiquette and good breeding dictate that whites steer clear. Self-deprecation doesn’t work when others deprecate you.”—ILANA (July 25, 2008)
“Americans had come out in droves for Barack, not because he’s a black man, but because they think he’s the right man. Yet the journalistic herd never stopped riding the same old racism ass.”—ILANA (June 6, 2008)
“Obama gets away with conjecture—he saddles white America with black America’s woes. Grandma, however, has still not acquitted herself for expressing a visceral fear borne of the brutal reality of crime in this country.”—ILANA (March 21, 2008)
“The genteel Obama is nothing like the Rev. Wright, except that they both appear to be overcompensating for not looking more like Kunta Kinte. There’s another small something the two share: a philosophy.”—ILANA (March 21, 2008)
“Race is like stigmata. And Obama plunged deep into those suppurating sores, intent on making white Americans welt-up and bleed at the mention of their alleged sins.”—ILANA (March 21, 2008)
“Michelle Obama’s sentiments seep out from that festering reservoir of racial animosity—the same cesspool wherefrom the Reverends Sharpton and Jackson launch their perennial strikes against honky.”—ILANA (February 22, 2008)
“If Americans were as good at driving a bargain as they are at coming out in droves for Obama, they’d insist that he insist that his spouse quit smearing them as racists.”—ILANA (February 22, 2008)
“CNN’s Kyra Phillips has led her viewers to believe that dangling a noose—an impolite and impolitic form of expression—is a hate crime; a black man beating a white man to a pulp—not so much. Being maimed or murdered, evidently, doesn’t compare to being maligned.”—ILANA (November 23, 2007)
“Broad statements about aggregate group characteristics, provided they are substantiated by hard evidence, not hunches, are not incorrect. Science relies on the ability to generalize to the larger population observations drawn from a representative sample. People make prudent decision in their daily lives as to where to invest scarce and precious resources—to wit, one’s life and property—based on probabilities and generalities.”—ILANA (September 15, 2006)
On racial quotas: “No one has ever demanded that the NBA or the 100-meter dash be made to better reflect the general population.”—ILANA (September 9, 2007)
“This latest Sharpton-and-Jackson-led reign of terror has made Abe Foxman of the Anti-Defamation League look as genteel and sedate as an English squire.”—ILANA (April 13, 2007)
“Race is intricately and ineluctably tied to freedom because we live under a state which circumscribes liberty by enforcing codes of hiring, firing, renting, and money lending, among others.”—ILANA (September 15, 2006)
“Race has become such an issue because we labor under nominal property ownership, and are subject to what is flippantly called political correctness, but is in fact codified and legalized theft and coercion.”—ILANA (September 15, 2006)
“Race and crime can be discussed as long as the topic is framed in bogus root-causes terms: stick to the Three P’s—patriarchy, poverty, and powerlessness.”—ILANA (October 1, 2005)
“Most of the men fighting for the South had never owned a slave. The same is true for those they left behind. The fight in the War Between The States was for freedom from the Federal Frankenstein.”—ILANA MERCER, “Hollywood’s Hateful Hooey About The South,” Jan 2, 2004.
