Tired of the toxicity of social media? Why not join Ricochet for just $5/month? Think of it as an online bar. Come in, have a drink, hang out, say whatever you want. But don’t badger, bully, or berate the other drinkers. That's our only rule.
This classic format episode features Steve in a one-on-one conversation with with Jeremy Carl, author of a dynamite (almost literally) new book entitled The Unprotected Class: How Anti-White Racism Is Tearing America Apart. Jeremy commits heresy in this book, offerng statistics that you aren't supposed to mention, and truths that, in an earlier age, might have got you burned at the stake. In publishing this book Jeremy joins the ranks of fellow brave souls such as Heather Mac Donald, Steve Sailer, Zach Goldberg, and a handful of others who do not shrink from challenging the enforced orthodoxy that approves of anti-white discrimination and scapegoating.
It is, Jeremy rightly notes, a formula that if continued much longer will divide the nation so badly that we won't be able to live together. He thinks the old fashioned principle of basic human equality rightly understood, and old ethic of the "melting pot" that brought together different ethnicities into a common citizenship and shared national identity needs to be restored, and soon. He offers some suggestions, some difficult, some happily already starting to happen. One good sign: the book is getting a lot of attention. Maybe the ice is finally breaking.

I've been hearing Mr. Carl be interviewed on a number of podcasts and, not surprisingly, this was at the top as far as having a host actually understand much of what was going on with the topic. Great work Steve.
My only highlight I wanted to post about was that the blame for the Civil Rights Act of 1991 was laid quite firmly at the feet of the GHWBush administration - which I think is whistling past the graveyard.
This bill was introduced into the Democrat- controlled Senate by Republican Danforth from Montana, passed to the House on a 93-5 vote (38 R votes!!), then sent to the President's desk on a 381-38 vote (127 R votes), and finally yes it was signed by Bush. Point being, this bill would never have seen the light of day without R support, and to make matters worse it was introduced by a Republican. This bill is also the reason you have out of control HR in corporate and almost every semi large employment institution - it made sex lawsuits easier to file and put the onus on the business for liability. Naturally they enacted CYA which led us to the mess we have today. Codification of disparate impact is so very damaging as well.
All in all you can see why when today's political thinkers across the Right/NRx/MAGA/DRx/etc. look at the past Republican party with understandable disdain. There were agency folks who understood the problems but Con Inc was happily on board to screw the country - and it being the standard bearer for "liberalism going the speed limit" is further on display here. In this case they rushed in a la Leroy Jenkins to mess things up.
Just a point I thought needed clarification. Great book btw folks, get it. 👍🏻
