Liberals tell me that race doesn't matter, nay, that it doesn't even exist. The neo-Nazis tell me that race is everything and that nothing else matters.
To which I say: bullshit. Race exists and it matters, but race is not everything. It's not a question of nature or nurture; both are important, and they each play off the other. Behaviorism and biological determinism are not mutually exclusive. There's a third factor as well - the human will. We create our own reality to some extent.
Individualists tell me that there is nothing higher than the individual, that pursuing group interests is "collectivism" and that collectivism is evil. The neo-Nazi tells me that one cannot pursue one's racial interests while simultaneously pursuing one's individual interests, that one must either be a white man or be self-centered, but that one cannot be both.
Why can't one be both? The prosperity of my race is in my best interest, and my race's interest lies in the personal success of the individuals of which it is composed. I could care less if my race passes away if suppressing individual accomplishment is the cost of preserving it.
My "democratic" government passes hate speech laws, imposes gun control, invades my privacy, limits my right to due process, my right to travel, and my freedom to associate, and it does it "for my own good." The neo-Nazi wants to impose an authoritarian regime - a "racial dictatorship" - for "the good of the race."
I say, fuck the sorry lot of them. I don't need some bleeding heart liberal, some conniving kike, or some psychotic redneck telling me how to live my life at the barrel of a gun.
Am I alone?
Is there a middle way?
Who else is tired of extremism?
