Word of the Day : Ethnomasochism
March 15, 2009
From Guillaume Faye posting at François Desouche:
(Translation by, and HT to, Gallia Watch)
Ethnomasochism
(It is) the masochistic tendency to regard with a sense of guilt and a sense of worthlessness one’s own ethnic group, one’s own people.
Ethnomasochism is similar to shame of oneself and self-hatred. It is a collective psychopathology, triggered by a long propaganda effort to foster a presumed fundamental sense of guilt felt by Europeans vis-à-vis other peoples, of whom they are assumed to be the “oppressors”. It is therefore necessary to repent and to “pay the debt.” This effort at repentance, a veritable historical sham, has been undertaken by the Churches, as well as by the European States.
Ethnomasochism is also the basis of anti-natalistic policies that surreptitiously aim to limit the reproduction of European populations. Implicitly then, it can be likened to a type of “self-racism”. The European man can be said to have been struck down by an original sin, an intrinsic racial stain: he is guilty of being what he is.
Ethnomasochism provokes the systematic defense of cross-breeding (“métissage) and cosmopolitanism. Curiously, it denies to Europeans the idea of ethnic identity, but grants it to others. Europeans are duty-bound to dilute themselves, but other peoples, Africans for example, are not. Ethnomasochism is the counterweight of xenophilia (love and overestimation of the foreigner, the “other”). It is related to ethno-suicide.
In history, ethnomasochism is not new; it was the symptom of peoples tired of life, tired of perpetuating themselves; of aging peoples who pass the torch to others. The European elite are afflicted with this collective illness. And this illness explains the laxness towards the colonization by migrants and the idea that we have both a duty and a need to welcome the new occupiers.
In the Original French:
Ethnomasochisme
Tendance masochiste à culpabiliser et à dévaloriser sa propre ethnie, son propre peuple.
L’ethnomasochisme s’apparente à la honte et à la haine de soi. C’est une psychopathologie collective, provoquée par un long travail de propagande en faveur d’une prétendue culpabilité fondamentale des peuples européens face aux autres, dont ils seraient les « oppresseurs ». Il faudrait donc se repentir et « payer la dette ».Ce travail de repentance, véritable imposture historique, est entamé aussi bien par les Eglises que par les Etats européens.
L’ethnomasochisme est aussi à la base des politiques anti-natalistes qui visent subrepticement à limiter la reproduction des populations européennes. Implicitement, il s’assimile donc à un « auto-racisme ». L’homme européen serait frappé par un péché originel, une tare raciale intrinsèque, il serait coupable d’être ce qu’il est.
L’ethnomasochisme provoque l’apologie systématique du métissage et du cosmopolitisme. Curieusement, il dénie aux Européens l’idée d’identité ethnique mais l’accorde aux autres. Les Européens ont le devoir de se diluer, mais pas les autres, pas les Africains par exemple. L’ethnomasochisme est le pendant de la xénophilie (l’amour et la survalorisation de l’étranger, de « l’autre »). Il s’apparente à un ethno-suicide.
Dans l’histoire, l’ethnomasochisme n’est pas nouveau ; il fut le symptôme des peuples las de vivre et de se perpétuer ; des peuples vieillissants qui passent le relais à d’autres. Les élites européennes sont atteintes de cette maladie collective. Cette dernière explique le laxisme envers la colonisation migratoire et l’idée selon laquelle nous aurions à la fois le devoir et le besoin d’accueillir les nouveaux occupants.

Anarcho-tyranny in the U.K.
October 18, 2008
Dear Readers–
Some years ago the paleocon Sam Francis used the term “anarcho-tyranny” in an article to describe a system of government that is:
a combination of anarchy (in which legitimate government functions—like spying on the bad guys or punishing real criminals—are not performed) and tyranny (in which government performs illegitimate functions—like spying on the good guys or criminalizing innocent conduct like gun ownership and political dissent).
The result of anarcho-tyranny is that government swells in power, criminals are not controlled, and law-abiding citizens wind up being repressed by the state and attacked by thugs.
Anarcho-tyranny is the perfect description for the following article from THE TELEGRAPH (UK) brought to this Journal’s attention by Ambush Predator:
A £3,000 blank wall built for teenage graffiti artists by a council was painted by a disgruntled taxpayer with the slogan: “I paid my tax and all I got was this lousy wall”.
The 6ft high by 30ft long wall was installed so youths could practice their graffiti artwork without vandalising local property.
But ahead of its opening on October 31 a fed-up resident sneaked behind a security fence and daubed a protest about the use of taxpayer’s money.
This heinous act of a taxpayer writing on a graffiti wall and spoiling it for the juvenile deliquents has caused the local Constabulary (who came up with the idea to build the graffiti wall in the first place) to threaten:
“But it is now going to cost the taxpayer, as we will have to crime it, investigate it and paint over it.
“We have been working hard to try to provide something positive for the community and this coward and their juvenile delinquent act has set a terrible example to the youth of the town.
“All residents were given the opportunity to raise objections during the planning process. This person could have come and spoken to us instead of committing this petty act.
“To paint graffiti on the wall and remain anonymous shows this person has no courage, I would have more respect if he or she came forward and admitted responsibility.”
Words fail me.
But not commenter Ross at Ambush Predator:
If they were capable of investigating graffiti vandalism, then they wouldn’t need the wall would they?
Couldn’t they just build a second wall for angry taxpayers to express their dissatisfaction with building the first wall?
Yours Sincerely,

Wordsworth Rap
April 12, 2007
Dear Readers–
From the Daily Telegraph (U.K.):
But now William Wordsworth’s most famous poem has been reworked and rewritten in a hip-hop style – complete with drum beat and quick-fire rhymes – in an effort to draw a younger generation of visitors to the Lake District.
Cumbria Tourism, which has released the new version of I Wandered Lonely As A Cloud to mark the 200th anniversary of the original, hopes the rap and accompanying video will appeal to the “YouTube generation”.
So a video of a rapper in a giant squirrel outfit (called M.C. Nuts) dancing around to such lyrics as:
Must have been 10,000 I saw in my retina
No more than a glance then I register they’re beautiful etcetera
I never knew in advance but they were tossing up their heads like a pogo dance
is meant to bring the “youth” into the Lake Districts? I wonder what their slogan is: “Come to the Lake District – see Wordsworth turning over in his grave”?
Yours sincerely,
Mild Colonial Boy, Esq.
P.S. M.C. Nuts spitting out the Wordsworth Rap. Check it.
