By Frederick Dixon:
We heard last week of the ever greater numbers of youngsters going up to university this year. It looks as if very soon the target of 50% of the age group will be exceeded – what a contrast to the days of my youth when only about one in twenty of my contemporaries were “revolting students”! And a good thing too. Well it is, isn’t it? Of course it is, for the future graduates themselves whose lifetime earning potential is greatly increased, and for the country itself which can only benefit from a better educated workforce.
For people who believe as we do there is, though, a dark cloud to that silver lining. Compared with those who have not been to university, graduates are only half as likely to be social conservatives, and twice as likely to be social liberals, so the huge growth in university education will serve to populate every street and every hamlet (and every teenager’s bedroom) with Guardian reading Hampstead intellectuals. I exaggerate of course, but higher education does seem to have a remarkable capacity for brainwashing the impressionable leading them to despise as “ignorant” the robust views of those educated by experience and by real life. We might have hoped that by now we would have seen some substantial sign of youthful rebellion against the Old – and in particular against the malignant social liberalism which has prevailed in Universities since the 1960s – but it has yet to happen. It is, then, no surprise to learn that at the 2010 General Election the Labour Party, for the first time in its existence, received the majority of its votes not from the White working class but from the “graduate middle class” and from that other burgeoning section of the electorate, ethnic minorities. It is not given to us to see the future and time may yet have surprises in store, but if the country continues on the path which seems to be ordained we may expect appeals to patriotism of the UKIP type to cease to resonate, for pressure to “do something” about immigration to ease, for Labour to win more elections more easily. Blair’s opening of the floodgates is doing precisely as intended.

Maybe when they find it difficult to get a worthwhile job & see non whites have no such trouble they might then wonder why.

I think it’s long been recognised that only, perhaps, 20% of a population is worth educating and upto the rigours of that education. So when Tony Blair proclaimed that
university education should be available to everyone, we have to assume there was an
ulterior motive. Mr Dixon has described the real motive behind it. Its purpose is to
reinforce their leftist lies on our youth.

I have had a few ”well-educated” friends in my life. By ”well-educated” I mean university educated. I’m all for people learning at a higher level, but can you really maintain a high standard when 50% of the youth are attending these places? I think the answer is obvious.
William L. Pierce often spoke about the liberalism that infests universities. Most people adapt to the environment around them; so if the majority of the professors are Cultural Marxist types you are going to see a significant portion of the students becoming soulless, deracialised tools of the establishment. Pitiful.
We can, however, target the better elements within these institions. National Action are doing some good work — we can’t give up! Armed with a superior stock of knowledge, a tiny minority of nationalist students could crush the Cultural Marxist ”intellectuals” in an instant. We need to be creative. Give them a few slogans and a bit of shock. All that type of stuff.
I think it’s very important that we don’t overrate the ”liberal” convictions of these university types. They are the sheeple: they espouse politically correct propaganda because they think it’s cool. As Jez Turner has written in some brilliant articles on this site, liberals are STUPID. We can win this information war.

It often seems like there is no way out of this situation and trends like this can only serve to reinforce that view I suppose.
.
There is something about the ‘dynamics’ of society which has built up such a peculiar state of affairs that we have now reached the point where people are actually congratulating and priding themselves on their own eradication.
.
How we have got here is open for debate and I am sure many here will have their theories like I do, yet here we are regardless, like salmon swimming upstream, or pushing against the tide that has been manufactured in peoples minds, lives, systems and structures. Some are strong enough to make it, some reach part the way there and help others along the way, whilst others can just fall to the wayside or not even know they should be going that way at all!
.
This is one reason as to why there is no hope at all of expecting the so called Conservatives (or UKIP for that matter) to really align themselves with our interests. They are components of this system, they are purveyors and architects of this system, they are advocates of the system and in many cases dupes of the system.
.
I think we would struggle to actually find a genuine ‘conservative’ in the Conservative party, and I expect UKIP to eventually end up the same way. As somebody once said: ‘Conservatism is merely the buffer to the planned speed of liberalism’.
.
Aside from some monetary policies, do the Conservatives still hold any traditional conservative views at all? Could any of their ministers or representatives argue against, say, drugs, single-motherhood, homosexuality, or whatever else? I honestly don’t think they can, and nor would they really want to! The Conservatives have lost every single battle against the so-called “left”.
.
Endless retreat has been their forte – until the point where we hear the Conservative party sounding like the Labour party of the 1990s. They are just a few decades behind the curve in their vigour. Positions which were once seen as outrageously liberal-left are now proudly proposed by the ‘conservative right’.
.
The media has certainly not helped. I can give two examples from this week. I listen to radio 4 sometimes on the journey home from work, and to their other station, Radio 2. They both have had debate/topical shows this week, some of them on the same subjects.
.
The first one was regarding the situation in America with the shooting of that Black man by the White police officer. At no point on either these radio discussions (or on the television for that matter) have I really heard anybody argue the issues properly from the perspective of the “White community”.
.
The entire debate is single-sided, single-minded – where we are treated to interviews and clips from the likes of Al Sharpton and Bonnie Greer! TV news reporters are generally asking Blacks what they feel about it, what they think the issues are, and so on and so forth. All we hear is one tale, one slant, one narrative – and guess what, it is not in our interests!
.
Bonnie Greer was even harping back to slavery, segregation, the civil rights movement, and every other worn our cliché you could possibly imagine. On neither show were such people pulled up on their projections by the host. No counter arguments were presented at all. There was no counter-argument interviewee at all. All there seemed to be was questions of “what could be done” about all their problems…. and we all know what that involves….more of the same, more at our expense, more guilt, more disaster.
.
The second topic I heard on Radio 4, was something to do with Sky News /Sky TV making some policy where a certain percentage of their staff and reporters had to be from a “BAME” background. The whole discussion passed without any contradiction whatsoever. The only critical questioning was “whether the measures would work”, or “is it doing enough”, and “what more can we do” as a society to set all these “injustices” right.
.
Any sort of counter view, counter argument – especially those which may expose the deeper folly of this madness – has been completely expunged from the airwaves, from debate, from politics and therefore from most people’s minds. They could not argue a contrary point, even if they managed to think it for a second. You see, the thought-stream, the wave, is all one way and it has been for a very long time.
.
Those who have grown up under New Labour, in their “diverse” towns and cities, with liberal-left teachers, music, drama, films, news stations, and liberal “opposition” political parties…..will not really know much different, or even how to think much differently, or that they even might need to do so! So it should not be surprising when the youth, students, going right up to middle aged people in the Conservative Party, know no different, know no other world view, no other fundamental argument.
.
I think it takes some very unique and free-thinking individuals to really break out of the conformity that seems to surround us. After all, to think differently currently means to be ridiculed, outcast, seen as some kind of social leper.
.
This was on show as they “joked” (on yet another Radio Four programme I caught this week) how “racists” have apparently been “proven” to be dumber than “non-racists”…and how they all laughed at the dumb “racists” who apparently can be “ignorant” and “show little empathy and capacity to put themselves in somebody else’s shoes”.
.
Could anybody on the panel argue against that position? Would anybody there like to do so? Would it even cross their mind that it ought to be challenged, or that there may be other things than their narrow view of “racism” going on with our concerns? I seriously doubt it.
.
So, the listener will congratulate themselves as to how they are not one of those ghastly dumb people and feel content to be part of the “in-crowd” that, in effect, willingly usher in their own eradication as a people….and what is so “smart” about that?
.
So, on it goes. It really is a massive task to try and break this monotony down, but I suppose that is what has to be done otherwise we will never get anywhere.
.
Given the pervasive and all encompassing nature of the forces against us, if cultivating our own patch of society is the only way to retain a whisker of counter-force, then that is the way it may have to be done. I cannot see party politics fulfilling this role any more. It may have a part to play, I am sure many learn from it and seek them out, but there needs to be more elements on the table.
.
We seem to have a new breed of “underclass” showing the worst we have become, a new breed of liberal class priding themselves and the nation on what we have now become, and burgeoning ethnic class busily fighting to take pride in seeing what they can achieve at our existential expense in the void between the two.
.
Then there is everybody else in between, which is probably the main battleground….seeing as the former two are getting to be a lost cause and the third a definite counterforce to our preferences.
.
An interesting thing that one of the media company spokespeople said in the Radio4 interview was that they see their role as not only “reflecting society” but “changing society”. They seem to consider it their duty to reprogram people and send society in particular directions.
.
An example citied was the election of Obama as president of the United States. They said that if it was not for films and TV shows in America in the last 10 to 15 years that had picked Black actors to play the president of America, it would not have conditioned society in a way that made the thought of a Black president being possible. They seemed to know exactly what they were doing. I found the admission quite interesting, but there you go.

It’s all about reinforcing their beliefs & POV as the correct way of looking at things, as you say nobody respectable will make a contradictory statement, their career would be over in a heartbeat.
If the general public think about these things, want to question the status quo, they have to search for an alternative view.
That’s easier than it was, thanks to the internet but it’s a deluge that you have to pick your way through with no official trusted guarantee of it being the truth.
You have to judge it in the light of your own experiences to see what holds up best for you, what truth seems to fit.
As for Obama they completely ignore the fact that he’s little different to Bush, that there’s little to distinguish between either party.

This fifty percent is probably a higher proportion for the 80% of indigenous British people. Therefore I foresee a future where a shrinking and aging white minority are the most highly qualified and hold all the leading positions in government, business, academia and the media. The third world hordes imported by New Labour will form a new black proletariat doing low paid service jobs. This liberal utopia will resemble Brazil as it is today, as this Guardian article about the OECD document ‘Policy Challenges for the Next 50 Years’ makes clear:
‘Los Angeles and Detroit look like Manila – abject slums alongside guarded skyscrapers; the UK workforce is a mixture of old white people and newly arrived young migrants; the middle-income job has all but disappeared. If born in 2014, then by 2060 you are either a 45-year-old barrister or a 45-year-old barista. There will be not much in-between’
All these liberal types who feel so smug about how enlightened and progressive they should look at Brazil and take cognizance of the fact that this is the utopia that they are building.
