A few weeks before Christmas last year, the U.K. experienced a George Floyd-adjacent crime, an alleged ‘racist attack’. In Southampton, the police found Henry Nowak down on the ground, curled into a fetal position, moaning, “I’ve been stabbed.” They’d been summoned by the alleged victim, the brown-skinned Vickrum Digwa, who claimed a ‘racist attack’ by the white man bleeding his life away from five stab wounds.


Instead of calling an ambulance and taking Digwa in—who should at least have been a ‘person of interest’, being the only one near the young man at the time—police instead handcuffed the dying man in the video and denied he’d been stabbed, then informed him he was being arrested for an alleged racism. Or something.




Nowak died, and Digwa’s trial wrapped up quickly as pre-attack video refuted his racism story. It shows he had grabbed Nowak’s phone who was ‘likely’, according to the judge, trying to get it back. Digwa has been sentenced to a lifetime in prison with a minimum of 21 years.


Nowak’s last words to police were, “I can’t breathe. I can’t breathe!”


The U.K., which exploded with righteous virtue-signalling hysteria amidst lockdown madness over George Floyd, has little to say about their own moment. The late Henry Nowak, a Polish-British citizen, was labeled the villain by police solely because of his skin color. Bolstered by a racist lie.


The sad tale testifies to the progressive anti-white hate we normie liberals and conservatives must fight.




The extent of progressive racism


Progressive racism includes Indians, Asians and especially Jews, racists having defined the last as the world champions of global oppression. Antisemitism drives their keffiyeh-branded Nazi-adjacent politics around the world. Muslim protesters lead the pack, Ground Zero for demonstrably higher anti-Jewish opinions than other groups. More on that in a future article.


Antisemitism is racism. Because Jews have a claim to the land of Israel and whatever’s left of ‘Palestine’ no more or less than whatever’s left of the Gazans. Most progressives are ignorant of the genetic history of that part of the world.


We ‘normies’, we Exhausted Majority, now have the opportunity to challenge woke racists and hold silent sheeple to the same antiracist standard to which they hold everyone who isn’t themselves.


Wokeness is dying, and we can collectively drive a stake through its hateful heart.

The U.K., along with their George Floyd scandal, is also being forced to reckon with their decades-long racist willful ignorance of the Pakistani-Muslim rape gangs. (If you’ve been silent on that, would you have if the colors were reversed?) Voices are calling for a Day of Reckoning for the U.K. Pakistani-Muslim community who has ignored this problem for fifty years. Coming from their community specifically, not other immigrant Muslim communities. The Rape Gang Inquiry Report, provided by a British MP after the U.K. government refused to investigate the scandal themselves, can be downloaded here.



Meanwhile, back in the U.S….


Wokeness is dying, and progressive racism isn’t as cool as it used to be.


An unlikely ally for the #AllRacismMatters camp is Donald Trump, who we should wholeheartedly support when he gets something right. His jam is going after DEI.


He’s specifically targeted medical schools who’ve allegedly favored black and Latino students over higher-scoring whites and Asians, preferring they should prioritize merit and scholarship over skin color (yes, how ironic!); and for college admissions to provide evidence they’re not discriminating. The administration also warns against the use of ‘race proxies’ to circumvent U.S. Supreme Court rulings clearly defining that prioritizing race—any race—over merit-based considerations is a violation of students’ civil rights. That’s good news for whites, Asians, and ‘white-adjacent’ Indians. Not so much for those who coast on their biology.



Trump’s demanding American universities work harder to protect these groups from campus racial discrimination. According to Time magazine, Trump stated, sounding, admittedly, like school counselor Mr. Mackey in South Park, “But I think the laws are very unfair right now. And education is being very unfair, and it’s being stifled. But I don’t think it’s going to be a big problem at all. But if you look right now, there’s absolutely a bias against white [people] and that’s a problem.”


Zero gold stars for eloquence but his point is clear. Anti-white, anti-Asian, and anti-Indian racism is real. Progressive. And unconstitutional.


Yeah, he’s a racist himself. It takes one to know one. But he’s still right. Progressives reject that they themselves might be racist, while it’s undeniable to those who must live with progressive racism.


Racism is always wrong. Whites are not universal blanket oppressors. Black people aren’t nearly as powerless as they once were, and many activists resist asking the hard, and obvious question: How are (some) black people holding themselves back?


This book was written in 1990, and I read it about three years ago. It’s every bit as relevant today as it was back then. Steele digs down into black resistance to changing themselves, improving their game, competing on merit and the need to stop blaming Whitey for their own shortcomings.

Trump’s antiracism mandate extends to off-campus. His administration is vigorously enforcing the Civil Rights Act’s Title VI with an executive order reminding progressives that it includes Jews. He’s established a task force for rooting out antisemitism and is aggressively forcing action against antisemitic activity. He’s launched investigations into the most well-known and notorious elite universities who have ignored or encouraged antisemism on their campuses. I’ll just say it out loud: Good job, Donald!


Don’t shy away from praising Trump just because he’s an awful human being. No one is 100% evil, or always wrong, which he’s proven.




We can de-toxify woke/black racism, and somehow repair the broken moral compasses too many self-hating white progressives, and racist black activists, carry around.


Traditional liberals must stop being ‘team players’. Woke progressives aren’t on our team; they’re on Team Illiberal, along with their MAGA compatriots (and adversaries).


We need to call out people like the ditzy chick who wouldn’t file charges against a black man who violently attacked her on a Manhattan subway because she ‘didn’t want to put another black man in jail.’ Presumably, she would have if he’d been white?


THAT’S RACIST!He went on to murder someone shortly after. She’s now a collaborator, however unintentionally. She’s not legally responsible, of course, nor should she be; but we need to call out and push white weenies like her to file reports and ignore woke whines about racism. They’re merely projecting themselves onto her, and actively helping right-wingers who accuse progressives of being soft on crime.


In another case of anti-white racism, the media was remarkably silent on the murder last year on a North Carolina light-rail line of Iryna Zarutska, a young Ukrainian immigrant returning home from work when she was stabbed to death by a black loony-tune. Little public outcry from anyone except perhaps White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt, in a rare moment of truth-telling to the American people on the dangers of progressive crime treatment.



Wow. The Barbie Parrot understands right and wrong better than the media.

The media is RACIST.



How to fight progressive racism


We start by defending merit and competence. We can use sports as a metaphor. Superbowls, World Series, FIFA matches, and World Cups aren’t exciting because they’re played by people chosen for their biological diversity; they’re chosen for one reason only: How good they are.

Sports teams are one of the few merit-based professions left. Some are dominated by one color or another, but for economic rather than ideological or race-related reasons. Tiger Woods is one of the few black golfers in a whiter-than-Friends professional sport, but that’s because of its higher financial barriers. It’s closely linked to exclusively white country club culture which is still being dragged kicking and screaming into the post-civil rights world. Blacks and other Athletes O’ Color predominate basketball and football because they’re tickets to getting out of the ghetto if you’re really good. All you need to start is a ball. Maybe a basket.


Now suggest to your favorite woke progressive sports fan that their favorite team is too white, or too black, and that DEI should replace a few for more ‘balance’.



Make common sense more common


We must challenge progressive racist ideology with a strict adherence to just-the- facts, ma’am. This is how I learned to combat Christian fundamentalism when I lived in the U.S. They knew the Bible far better than I, but I knew science and history far better than they. I probably didn’t convince many True Believers with my brilliant assessment of Biblical errors. But. I may have planted seeds of doubt that flowered long after I was gone.


That’s what we must do with today’s True Progressive Racists. You won’t ‘win’ arguments with logic and rationalism, but their hypocrisies will begin to nag them, especially if they hear challenges from more than a few sources. If you see them regularly, keep asking the questions. Like, “Do you secretly suspect black students aren’t smart enough to compete fairly with white and Asian applicants?” Why are they so suspicious of merit? Your question makes them realize they sound racist, or at least subscribe to the bigotry of low expectations.


Zero tolerance for ideology that can’t be logically defended. Period.

Take note where you flagged in debates and find better responses. Don’t try to argue on their turf; ideology is malleable but the facts are not. Drag them onto your own firmer ground. The more they hear the message, the more they will begin to doubt, especially when they hear it elsewhere.



Truth is cool


Nazi propaganda puppy Joseph Goebbels claimed that a lie repeated often enough becomes accepted in the public mind. Guess what, that also applies to the truth. We can diminish progressive racism by speaking out. We can surround these people with the facts from which they hide. Here’s a cloud with a silver lining: They’ve got two more years of Trump and his hate-on for woke. Continually call their beliefs racist. When they hear the label enough, they’ll change, or hide.


The more vocal we are, the more others will feel empowered to speak out. We especially need to challenge our liberal friends who say they agree with us normies in private but mouth progressive pieties around their racist friends. Liberals need to prove criticism of progressives isn’t ‘just Fox News Kool-Aid’. It’s widely shared.


Force progressives to play it safe before making statements publicly.


Make it dangerous to be publicly stupid. Ask those glaringly obvious questions, and keep asking until they answer them. We won’t change many minds, at first. But what has been heard and read cannot be undone. They might see the light later.


We can change the world, one progressive racist at a time.
