No one was surprised that Leftists from President Biden down to the governor of New York demanded the eradication of “Hate Speech” after the terrible mass shooting in Buffalo, New York. The rhetoric urging censorship is bad enough. But mandating policies actually to attack free speech are even worse [‘White supremacy is a poison,’ Biden says as he calls for ending Hate Speech and curbing guns, by Robert J. McCarthy, The Buffalo News, May 17, 2022]. Yet the shooting itself, of course, is not driving the crackdown push. Rather, Leftists fear that mainstream Republican and conservative lawmakers—and, more threateningly, voters—are Noticing the Great Replacement. Demographic change is essential to the Democrats’ political mission, but they don’t want the Historic American Nation to know they are pushing the change. Thus, Leftists call the Great Replacement a “white nationalist conspiracy theory” to silence discussion … unless, of course, those discussing the replacement think it’s a good thing. But that tactic is failing. Millions of Americans and their leaders are openly discussing the obvious.
Anyone vaguely familiar with the America’s demographics, including Leftists, know that the Great Replacement is far from a conspiracy theory. It simply posits that the Ruling Class of the West is electing a new people through mass immigration, a fact VDARE.com has long pointed out. In 50 or so years, America has gone from 87 percent to 57 percent white. Here’s why: Insane immigration policies, anti-white immigration legislation—most notably the Hart-Celler immigration bill in 1965—the 1986 Amnesty, and today, simply opening the borders to millions of Third World illegal aliens. Democrats themselves admit the truth. They’re trying to brown the country.
Leftists would have you believe the change is akin to changing seasons; no one is really responsible for the Camp-of-the-Saints invasion this country is suffering. “Migrants” looking for a better life just showed up. To suggest otherwise is a dangerous conspiracy theory.
So now the Democrats and their Leftist Mainstream Media Information Ministry are linking the shooting in Buffalo to that “conspiracy theory” in general, and to Fox News’s Tucker Carlson in particular. The host of the No. 1 cable news show talks about it regularly

It is now clear that our once highly respected popularizer of the latest scientific research, Scientific American, is hopelessly misnamed.
Clearly, any “Managing Editor” of such a magazine should be devoted to science and, thus, to placing the pursuit of empirical truth above all other considerations. However, a recent ad for this very position tells us that Scientific American is committed to “diversity, equity, inclusion and social justice in our workplace and our journalism.”
Qualifications for the open Managing Editor position at Scientific American include a "commitment to advancing diversity, equity, inclusion and social justice."

In other words, the magazine will misreport, or fail to report, scientific discoveries if they in any way question, or even if they fail to directly promote, Woke dogmas.

Communism has always suffered from tensions caused by the need for both political rectitude and expertise in fields of practical knowledge.
Fields like medicine, for example. Lenin nursed a deep distrust of Bolshevik doctors. In a letter to the writer Maxim Gorky, who suffered from TB, Lenin wrote:
The news that you are being given a new kind of treatment by "a Bolshevik," even if a former one, has really worried me. The saints preserve us from comrade-doctors in general, and Bolshevik-doctors in particular! …In 99 cases out of 100 the comrade-doctors are "asses," as a good doctor once said to me. I assure you that you should consult … only first-class men. It is terrible to try out on yourself the inventions of a Bolshevik!
So at least where medicine is concerned you can put Lenin on the side of the experts against the ideologues. He didn't care how Bolshevik his doctors were; in fact he preferred them not Bolshevik at all. He just wanted them to be good at doctoring.
Stalin not so much. The late Boris Zeldovich, son of the great Soviet physicist Yakov Zeldovich, told me that Lavrenty Beria, the head of Stalin's secret police, saved many lives among Zeldovich's fellow physicists working on the early Soviet nuclear program.
Stalin, said Boris, would have anyone shot on suspicion of political "unreliability," but Beria knew that some personnel had knowledge and skills critical to the USSR's progress, so he protected them even when they strayed from the Party line.
In Mao Tse-tung's China this dichotomy between people who were politically pure and people who actually knew useful things was expressed as "Red" versus "Expert." In his writings Mao tried to fudge the issue by appealing to the Interpenetration of Opposites, one of the principles of Dialectical Materialism.
Mao wasn't much of a philosopher, though. The much-advertised Mao Tse-tung Thought was just a cheap Chinese knock-off of Marxist-Leninism. Mao kept losing the thread of his argument and coming down on the side of the "Reds" against the "Experts." Sample quote:
Ideology and politics are the commanders, the soul. A slight relaxation in our ideological and political work will lead our economic and technological work astray.
Red And Expert, January 31, 1958
In our own Cultural Revolution in the West today, that same divide between "Red" and "Expert" is plain to see, and we don't even have the philosophical mumbo-jumbo of Dialectical Materialism to tell us about interpenetrating opposites. When "Red" and "Expert" are in conflict, the "Red" must win and the "Expert" be crushed, expelled, canceled.
I offer you three and a half case studies from just the past few days. I
Fifty-four-year-old David Sabatini, a world-famous molecular biologist specializing in how cancer tumors develop.
Four years ago Sabatini was a tenured professor at MIT. For twenty years he'd been running a big lab at the nearby Whitehead Institute for biomedical research, supervising a team of 39 researchers.
Sabatini is a real Expert—a genius, according to colleagues. He made a key discovery in cancer research while he was still at medical school. Back in 2018 he was a good bet for a Nobel Prize.
So what's the latest news on David Sabatini? I'll let Suzy Weiss, writing on her sister Bari Weiss’ Substack site, tell you:
Today, Sabatini is unemployed and unemployable. No one wants to be associated with him. Those who do risk losing their jobs, publishing opportunities, friends, visas, and huge federal grants.
He Was a World-Renowned Cancer Researcher. Now He's Collecting Unemployment, May 19, 2022
What precipitated such a downfall? The key here is in those lines penned by William Congreve three and a quarter centuries ago:
Heav'n has no rage like love to hatred turn'd,
Nor Hell a fury, like a woman scorn'd..
In April of 2018, Sabatini, separated from
Earlier: VDARE Book Club—The Myth Of The Andalusian Paradise (Sign up for Book Club here.)The Spanish territory known as Al-Andalusia under Muslim control (711-1492) is widely touted in academe and the Main Stream Media as a paradise of multicultural tolerance. Of course this is a lie, as Dario Fernández-Morera’s book The Myth of the Andalusian Paradise: Muslims, Christians, and Jews under Islamic Rule in Medieval Spain makes devastatingly clear. Al-Andalus was simply another chapter in the vicious history of Muslim subjugation of Europeans and Christians. It’s critical for immigration patriots to stamp out this lie because it is being used to justify the replacement and eventual extinction of our own civilization. As Fernández-Morera reminds us, this has all happened before.
The myth of Andalusia has become integral to the project of The Great Replacement:

Narrative control is fundamental to nationhood. Ethnic kinship is necessary but not sufficient. Challenging the fundamentals of national identity is subversion in the deepest sense. In America today, there are diametrically-opposed visions: the traditional story of American settlement and expansion vs. the progressive vision of America as a “crime scene,” according to “our” vice president [For Kamala Harris, America Is the ‘Scene of a Crime,’ by Gregory Hood, American Renaissance, February 22, 2019]. This ideological conflict is driven by demographics even as it facilitates future demographic changes, specifically mass Third World immigration.Back in 2002, speaking of what has happened in the United States, the late Sam Francis argued:
What is happening or has happened in almost all these instances is that the common cultural and political framework that enabled racially conscious whites to deflect non-white drives
Earlier, by Peter Brimelow: Was The Buffalo Massacre (Bad!) Caused By The Great Replacement (Undeniable)?
The “Great Replacement Theory” (GRT) has taken the media by storm! It seems that the white racist who shot up a grocery store full of black people last weekend cited GRT in his 180-page “manifesto.”
First of all, journalists need to understand that GRT is only a theory taught in advanced law school seminars. It is not something designed for indoctrination of mass audiences of young people.
So what is GRT? The New York Times describes it thus:
“[T]he notion that Western elites, sometimes manipulated by Jews, want to ‘replace’ and disempower white Americans.”(You want a conspiracy theory about a secretive cabal of Jews? Check out the Times’ series of articles on “neoconservatives” back in the early 2000s.)
But then—just as every argument about abortion suddenly becomes an argument about contraception—a few paragraphs later, the crackpot theory jumps from a Jewish cabal replacing whites with blacks…to the idea that Democrats are using immigration “for electoral gains.”
Wow, that is nuts! Where’d anybody get that idea?
Oh yeah—from liberals.
Here’s Democratic consultant Patrick Reddy in 1998:
“The 1965 Immigration Reform Act promoted by President Kennedy, drafted by Attorney General Robert Kennedy, and pushed through the Senate by Ted Kennedy has resulted in a wave of immigration from the Third World
