- 16 -The chatter about Beck’s conservative magnetism to Joe Six-Pack America is White apologist claptrap.Glenn Beck is merely one more highly compensated court jester in a long queue of other Euro-settlerminstrels put forward before the public to incite and agitate the public in a particular direction that serves theinterests of the power structure. Without the antics, Beck, Limbaugh, O’Reilly and the rest of the right-wing ‘Council of Hate and Disinformation’ have nothing to say. Their schtick is wholly dependent upon thesimple-mindedness of their brain-dead audiences. Their role at this point in the game is to rile up as muchWhite working-class angst as they can against the Black man in the White House by playing upon traditionalfears of African men. Like a concert violinist, the neo-conservative Australian/Saudi owned media machineworking against Obama is playing the White working class like a fiddle. Their fear is being used against them,big time. And they don’t even know it.And if there is one thing that defines the White man in America, it is his innate and paralysing fear of theAfrican Superman. It is a false bogeyman, a reactionary fabrication of the fears and insecurities all WhiteAmericans harbour but find difficult to reconcile with in emotive terms. To paraphrase Sartre, ‘The Whitecolonialist is incapable of condemning himself” and has always blamed the victim as the original catalyst forthe injustice itself. This is the colonialist understanding of ‘Original Sin’: the native is evil, repulsive and guiltyby birth. Ripe for enslavement, exploitation and expediency as exodus fodder, the White man, (or HanChinese, or Arabised Sudanese) reserves the ‘right’ to use and abuse the native or Aboriginal population atwill. This is the most important part of the colonial process; the reduction of the native in fact and in spirit,because it serves as the litmus test by which the colonialist measures his own humanity.The class divisions of this are obvious, but very few European or Euro-settler analysts include the dynamicsof ethnic marginalisation and how this phenomenon has informed US social development. Ironically, many onthe ‘left’ are just as racist in their own way as are their conservative counterparts. Each views thenon-European as ‘backward’ and ‘mentally-impoverished’ and too incapable of fully understanding thetotality of their situation. Both schools of thought spend a great deal of time imposing their vision of ‘What isgood for the Negro’ on Black people and both have a long record of applying belligerent pressure if their ‘benevolence’ is rejected. Then the discourse, if you can call it that, gets ugly.This is still done today, only no one dares call it Nazism. ‘The Bell Curve: Intelligence and Class Structure inAmerican Life’ written by Richard J. Herrnstein and Charles A. Murray brought the Eugenics argument backinto the mainstream consciousness by attempting to prove scientifically that Africans and othernon-Europeans are genetically inferior to Whites. While the clearly Nazi aspects of such a publication aretroubling on their own merit, it is more interesting to dissect the necessity for such a book. What were theauthors really trying to prove? Was it really an objective book pointing out a diminishing US intellectual-poolor was it about providing a pseudo-scientific argument for Whites who are too cowardly to call themselvesWhite supremacists? This is a legitimate question being that Africans in the Americas have been subjected toliterary genocide since Columbus and little has changed since.As the editor of ‘Political Affairs’ Joe Sims explains it:‘The Bell Curve is not a solo sojourn into Nazi propaganda. It was accompanied last year by twoother books: Race, Evolution, and Behavior by J. Phillipe Rushton, and, The Decline ofIntelligence in America: A Strategy for National Renewal by Seymour Itzkoff. All three books
