Will Smith is More Evil than Hitler

Or, the Thought Police go after a numinous negro

(Link)

The link is to one of several stories detailing Smith's faux-pas in relation to Hitler. He said, in essence, that Hitler didn't wake up mornings thinking to himself 'What evil can I do today?' but instead woke up and by using "twisted, reverse logic" decided to do what he (Hitler) considered to be good. That included the attempt to exterminate European Jewry - along with homosexuals, the mentally and physically dysfunctional, the Roma, the political opposition, trades unionists, conventionally Christian pastors, and a variety of others.

Smith can't be that bright or he would have realised that any comment containing the word 'Hitler' is bound to be misinterpreted, just as is any comment that can be even remotely interpreted as derogatory towards American Blacks, because no one here is allowed to express a thought which is not approved by the so-called 'left' of America's political and cultural elites. I say so-called because there is no 'left' wing of American politics - merely confused Socialists; just as there is no 'right' wing of American politics - merely confused conservatives who can't tell the difference between a political Liberal and the 'liberal' dementia of Hollywood political activists.

I've no idea what Smith's politics are, and less interest in finding out. How interesting can they be, considering the man is an actor, and therefore a professional liar, and therefore to be distrusted and regarded with suspicion every time he opens his mouth (I'm with Plato on this one: all actors play roles for money, therefore all actors are professional deceivers, and whores for the biggest fee for their latest deceit). Added to which, the man is utterly insulated from the reality of the common man and woman's life by his wealth, and the Hollywood hothouse which breeds nothing but political infantilism.

But, in part at least because of his political ineptitude, he's managed to raise two interesting points. The first is the general ethical and political point (which ought to be understood better in a democracy than anywhere else) that everyone has their own definition of the good life - which, for Hitler, included the subjugation of the rest of the world by the armed might of National Socialism. Because the rest of the world did not agree with that vision, and successfully opposed and defeated it, doesn't mean that it wasn't one particular vision of the good and the right. Which is all that Smith said it was. He didn't say that Hitler was good; he didn't say National Socialism was good; he didn't say that any activity of the NAZIS was good. He said nothing more than that Hitler had his own conception of the good and set out to achieve it.

Naturally, the hysterical demagogues of the 'left', the American Mullahs of the Politically Correct, received Smith's (when properly understood) innocuous comment with frothing-at-the-mouth outrage - no one, not even a Numinous Negro, can be allowed to challenge what these bigots and self-seeking hypocrites have been allowed to establish as the Wisdom of our Age, in case this consensus of fools begins to collapse. Hence we have, in response to Smith, this comment by The Jewish Defense League: that Smith's words "spit on the memory of every person murdered by the Nazis. His disgusting words stick a knife in the backs of every veteran who fought (and sometimes died) to save the world from the intentions of Adolf Hitler."

The JDL (Whining Jewry at its most craven and offensive) reacts to Smith's words with hyperbole that is unintelligible in relation to the original comment. Unintelligible that is until you realise that the response has nothing to do with the original comment and everything to do with a perceived betrayal of the 'left' by one thought to be their own. The JDL wants Obama (another Numinous Negro) to repudiate Smith's comment, a comment he had no part in, for precisely this reason - because Obama is the darling of the political 'left' and must, in order to demonstrate his compliance with its sad conventions, reject anything that can be deemed controversial, anything that can be thought of in any way as a challenge to the sacred cows and shibboleths of their 'socialism for retarded infants'.

And the second interesting thing that's revealed by his comment and the reaction to it is simply the existence of those sacred cows, those shibboleths. I've no doubt that there are some who find Smith's comment offensive, in itself and on its own terms, without reference to the agenda of the 'left'. However, being offended is an insufficient ground for the kind of censorship demanded by the JDL. You don't have a right to not be offended, or to deny liberty of speech to those who do offend you. You have a right to challenge offensive statements. You have a right to criticise and express that criticism. But you have no right to exclude offensive speech from the public sphere. Nor have you any right to punish those who speak offensively other than through the opprobrium of public opinion.

But try telling that to the likes of the JDL, or Al Sharpton, or Jesse Jackson, and it's you that wil suffer the attentions of the Thought Police.

Good piece, emp.

I think anyone remaining among the left ought to take a look at how readily they eat their own (Jesse & Al on Obama, the press on Will Smith), and run far, far away.

Smith's point was, as you said, a valid one. For all of our perceptions of evil, nobody wakes up in the morning and thinks "hey, let's see how evil I can be today". The shameful thing about the left is that they refuse to see ANYTHING valid about Hitler, which is the most convenient way to bring about another Hitler ("those who don't learn from history are condemned to repeat it").

A few years ago, we began collecting a children's book series from an out of print and highly politically incorrect author, Madeline Brandeis. It began when we read a BRILLIANT book of hers called "Little Tony of Italy". The book is written at a very easy to read level, and details a young Italian orphan who is taken in by a family and helped into Mussolini's youth corps (the name of it escapes me at the moment). It contains a chapter where the father sits young Tony down and tells him the history of Italy, and the national pride that Mussolini was restoring through the fascist movement.

For everyone who has ever wondered WHY Mussolini came to power in the first place, because they never saw life through the eyes of an Italian in the 30's, this book was a breath of fresh air. It answered questions teachers CANNOT answer, for fear of losing their jobs, but that NEED to be answered so that we avoid repeating the same mistakes.

I'm fairly certain that's why it is out of print now, though. We don't want to teach our children to THINK!

It's always entertained me how some people set themselves up as the arbitors of what words we can and can use in public. They claim that all they are doing is trying to stop bigotry, but what they are actually doing is perpetuating it. How can we, as a society, keep a persons religion to themselves if we're also supposed to watch what we say about and around a Jew, Mormon, Christian, Hindu, or whatever? How can we achieve a colorblind society if we are continuously reminded to look to a few people to be the voice of their race?

WHen they turned to Obama to repudiate Smith's remark, they exposed themselves as the bigots they are... yet again.

Couldn't agree more with both comments.

Dear me no. A population that thinks and bears arms regularly is a dreadful thing for any government to have to contemplate.

Here I was thinking you were going to make some witty comment about the evil of perpetrating godawful movies like 'Wild Wild West' and 'I am Legend' on this earth, when instead you reveal a bunch of Yanks have got their panties in a knot over something utterly unimportant.

There are some days where the truth seems vastly more trivial than fiction.

LOL!

Watch it buster...that's our fuckin job. If we didn't get our panties in a knot about unimportant stuff, who would do it?

Nice read, Simon...now that I've heard your voice and can "listen" to it as I read your articles, it's all the better. Edit: Yes. The british accent adds 20 points to a yank's perception of a Brit's IQ - not that you needed it. It's just the way it is, bro.

Excellent article. As said above, great read.

I'm glad you wrote this article. I had thought about writing something, but I couldn't organize my thoughts on this.

I think your two points are spot on.

Amen!

Our society doesn't trust its people to think anymore. Our government apparently has to constantly protect us from ourselves. Heaven forbid we read something and formulate our own opinion about it. Or worse yet, have a child read something and ask questions that don't have happy, feel good answers!

History classes are a joke in school these days! My niece was in the 2nd grade, didn't know who George Washington was but had heard all about Harriet Tubman. Can't talk about Christmas in public school but we can learn about Kwanza (don't get me started!).

Thinking has been replaced with knee jerk reaction and tolerance talk. The ones, however, spouting about tolerance seem to actually be the least tolerant.

I've never heard of Harriet Tubman. I know something about George Washington. I as a European am more well versed in American history than your children are taught to be - and all my knowledge, such as it is, is anecdotal and not the result of organised teaching. Which shows you where the governing values of American culture are beginning to fall in the everlasting debate about race in this country. Decidedly on the side of the Blacks. But not just any Blacks - on the side of people like Smith and Cosby, those who articulate or express values that are in consonance with the values that were formerly considered 'American'.

For awhile it was cool to be ghetto-Black (and among a certain subset of White youth, the Wiggers - wannabe-niggers - it still is) but the mainstream money was never going to be with them, and always with the likes of Cosby and Obama, who articulate a Black version of the same Protestant values that typify the dominant culture of America prior to the advent of JFK and his iniquitous civil rights agenda. An agenda whose catastrophic effects were magnified untold times by Lyndon Johnson and the unmitigated treachery of the so-called 'Great Society'. Lincoln freed the slaves. Lyndon Johnson enslaved the tax-paying citizen. And that philandering adulterer and arch-hypocrite, Kennedy, gave him the ideology with which to do it. But that's beside the point. The point is that the Numinous Negro (as much a stereotype and slander upon a community as is the stereotype of the Rapist/Criminal Negro) is on the rise.

This is why the guts were torn out of Smith's latest movie, because it's not permissible for a Black actor to portray a genocidical Mengele character devoted to human experimentation and extermination. The character in the original Novella that Smith supposedly portrays was deranged. He killed indiscriminately and constantly. He captured live creatures and tortured them to death in pursuit of a means to exterminate their entire kind. He was not a good man, and certainly not some Christ-figure sacrificing himself to save others. As the title implies, he was a monster.

The point the original story so graphically brings home is that there is an infinitesimally fine line between the monster and the hero - and that the line exists only because of perspective. But that's too complicated a thought for our day, too complicated and too old-fashioned. Instead we have Smith, perfect physical specimen, successful actor, representative of a breed of non-threatening Blacks, killing himself to save others, in a travesty of the original story and message.

But none of that matters. It's making money, it's pretty to look at, and all the evil zombies are white. That just about covers every base.

EOIC,

It sounds like it's a shame. I haven't seen the movie or read the book, but the book sounds like quite an intriguing read. I may have to check it out.

Gid:

by all means read the Novella. It's very well written, the original character is involving and interesting, and its climax is far more thought provoking than the idiot ending of the movie.

No government has ever trusted the people it governs to think. That's why universities, which at their best teach people how to think, have always been the preserve of the elites - that way thought can be controlled and directed toward the maintenance of the status quo. America was always a democracy, but it didn't become an egalitarian democracy until Johnson kidnapped American culture with his vision of the Great Society. America lives in the shadow of that failed experiment, and with its legacy: a hopeless devotion to the cause of the least deserving in the name of a political impossibility - a world without inequality of outcome in life.

America has confused justice with affirmative action, and equality with favoritism, and it's done so on the basis of an utterly unmerited and totally baseless cultural sense of guilt. So your ancestors enslaved a bunch of Africans a couple of centuries ago. And? So? Your point is?

Yes we did. Then we freed their ignorant asses. And look where that got us.

There is a direct connection between thought and weapons. It's called 'revolution'. People who question their society and its direction, and possess weapons, are a threat to established government - unless, of course, the government can persuade them into acquiescence. As I've said elsewhere, it used to be called 'bread and circuses'. Now, it's called 'Oprah' and 'Reality TV'.

The only way the American people will regain control over their government is to march on Washington and kill every one of the present crop of incumbent politicians. That way, the next set of fools we commission to rule over us will at least know that if they fuck with the people, the people will put them in their place - a hole in the ground, or a length of rope attached to a gibbet.

When I say these things I'm perfectly serious. I sincerely believe that American government since JFK and Johnson has been captivated by a crypto-socialist agenda that disguises itself as a 'debate' about 'human rights'. I once believed in Socialism; just as I once believed in 'Jesus Christ'. I found both alike equally disappointing. America however has not disappointed me. Her dream of a democratically organized Republic, founded in law and ordered by civic virtue, is both noble and humanly realisable. But it's a dream that has escaped this generation of her leaders, one which they will not remember until forcibly reminded by her people. Governance occurs by the consent of the governed; not by the imposition of the will of the governors.

Americans once before in their history overthrew the rule of a corrupt and indifferent elite. They can do so again. And, I'm convinced, they ultimately will.
