  • "Poisoning the Blood of Our Country": The Frontrunner Skips the Euphemism

    Title page of Madison Grant's 1916 book The Passing of the Great Race, or The Racial Basis of European History

    In Durham, New Hampshire on Saturday, the Republican frontrunner said immigrants are "poisoning the blood of our country." Historians identified the phrase within the hour, because it is not a common English idiom, and the most famous prior user devoted a chapter of his book to it. Three days earlier, a candidate on the same primary stage had called the Great Replacement "a basic statement of the Democratic Party's platform." The party has stopped needing …

  • Vivek Ramaswamy and the 'Great Replacement' Theory

    Vivek Ramaswamy speaking at a campaign event

    The article from The Atlantic titled "Ramaswamy, the New Voice of the ‘Great Replacement’ Theory" delves into the controversial statements made by entrepreneur and Republican presidential-primary candidate Vivek Ramaswamy regarding the 'Great Replacement' theory. This theory, often associated with white supremacist ideology, suggests that there is a deliberate plan to replace white Americans with immigrants, particularly from non-white backgrounds. Ramaswamy's endorsement of this theory, despite being a practicing Hindu and the son of Indian immigrants, …

  • "You Have Said the Actual Truth": The Richest Man Alive Endorses the Theory by Name

    Portrait photograph of Elon Musk taken in Colorado in 2022

    On Wednesday, November 15, a user on X posted a version of the replacement thesis with the antisemitic engine fully exposed: that Jewish communities promote "dialectical hatred against whites" and back the importing of "hordes of minorities" who will eventually replace them, and that they should therefore expect to lose sympathy. Elon Musk, who owns the platform, replied to it. "You have said the actual truth." Consider what had to be true for those five …

  • "I apologize for my white baby"

    A vintage black-and-white photograph of a mother spoon-feeding a baby in a high chair

    This kind of "article" is what conservatives have boiled systemic racism down to. They do not understand the concept and can't see how their denial of it's existence just bolsters the arguments for it. No one thinks your baby is racist, Karen... But we know it's mother is.

  • The Number Three Republican in the House Ran the Ads. Then Buffalo Happened.

    Official congressional portrait of Representative Elise Stefanik of New York

    Five days ago a gunman drove three hours to Buffalo's East Side and murdered ten people in a supermarket he chose by zip code, citing the Great Replacement by name in the document he left. In the days since, a great deal of American political energy has gone into establishing that nobody in public life had anything to do with the ideas in that document. So it is worth going back to August and September …

  • He Chose the Zip Code First. Ten People Were Buying Groceries.

    Flowers and tributes at the memorial to the victims of the Tops supermarket shooting on Jefferson Avenue in Buffalo, New York

    The Tops Friendly Market on Jefferson Avenue is the only full grocery store in its part of Buffalo's East Side. Getting it built took the neighborhood years of organizing, because supermarkets do not rush into Black neighborhoods. On Saturday afternoon, May 14, Payton Gendron, eighteen years old, drove more than three hours from Conklin, New York, parked outside it, and killed ten people. Roberta Drury, 32. Margus Morrison, 52. Andre Mackneil, 53. Aaron Salter Jr., …

  • No One Had Ever Called Him That in Uniform. Today It Went Into the Congressional Record.

    Editorial cartoon: a Black U.S. Capitol Police officer at a hearing-room witness table asks IS THIS AMERICA? while a committee listens from the dais under a banner reading July 27, 2021

    Six months after the mob, the select committee held its first hearing today, and Officer Harry Dunn of the Capitol Police put January 6's vocabulary under oath. He told the crowd he had voted. A woman in a pink MAGA shirt turned to the others: "You hear that, guys?" Then came the word, from her, then from twenty people at once. In January we wrote that the flags told you what the day was. Today …

  • Tucker Carlson Says the Quiet Part Into a Camera, and Fox's Owner Signs Off

    Tucker Carlson speaking at an event in December 2020.

    "Replacement theory" used to require a subscription to the worse corners of the internet. It is the belief that a scheming elite is deliberately importing non-white immigrants to dilute and ultimately replace white voters. It is the theory the torches marched for in Charlottesville, chanting "Jews will not replace us", and the theory cited in the manifestos of the El Paso and Christchurch shooters. As pedigrees go, it is not subtle. On Thursday night, Tucker …

  • Mike Pompeo denounces "Multiculturalism"

    Mike Pompeo speaking at a podium

    On his last day of work, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo tweets, from his official US government account... "Woke-ism, multiculturalism, all the -isms -- they're not who America is. They distort our glorious founding and what this country is all about. Our enemies stoke these divisions because they know they make us weaker."@SecPompeo 1/19/2021 This is pretty clear that Secretary Pompeo thinks that "multiculturalism" distorts "our glorious founding." Why? Because... White.No dogwhistle needed here.

  • The Confederate Flag Entered the Capitol Today. Four Years of Civil War Never Managed It.

    A wooden gallows with a hanging noose, erected by the crowd outside the United States Capitol, framing the Capitol dome

    Filed near midnight, January 6. A mob broke into the Capitol today to stop the counting of electoral votes. This page is not going to pretend the story is election law. The crowd built a gallows on the Hill, flew the Confederate battle flag at the base of the Grant Memorial, carried it through the halls inside (something four years of Confederate arms never accomplished), and chased a lone Black officer up a staircase. Congress …
