WorldNutDaily columnist shows off his white supremacist side
WorldNetDaily's Vox Day uses his latest column to go on a racially charged rant: There's no such thing as the American "melting pot," we should all stay in our little cultural enclaves, and whites should boot the brown people out of the country and "reclaim their traditional white Anglo-Saxon Protestant culture."

The justification Day provides for his little tirade is a videotaped speech by a Hispanic Los Angeles high school social studies teacher on a tirade of his own about "frail, racist, white people" who want to keep Hispanics out of the country. Day uses the video to claim that "Mexicans and other third-world immigrants" are an "occupying power" aiming to "destabilize and destroy" this country by "settl(ing) a foreign people in its midst."

Day then claims, "There is, quite simply, no such thing as human equality in any material sense," citing "the latest genetic research on potential Neanderthal genes found in humans of non-African descent," which "suggest that it is not entirely accurate to even assert that homo sapiens is not divided into various subspecies." He adds, "Basing immigration policy on the idea of the melting pot is about as rational as setting foreign policy on the basis of the example set by the United Federation of Planets in Star Trek."

Day seems proud to note that "from the mid-17th century to the mid-19th century, the New England states had almost no immigration for 200 years" (and "when the Irish did finally come to America, they were fewer, more culturally similar, and they came in a more gradual manner from farther away"). Day then declares that those glory days can be restored if Americans "can find the courage" to engage in ethnic cleansing and "expel" various ethnic minorities:

If Americans can find the courage to consciously reject the myth of the melting pot and expel the Mexicans from the American Southwest, the Arabs from Detroit and the Somalis from Minneapolis, they can reclaim their traditional white Anglo-Saxon Protestant culture. This is highly improbable because so many descendants of that culture have rejected it in favor of the vibrancy of diversity while those who haven't are far too frightened of criticism and social rejection to even articulate their thoughts.

It's also worth noting that in 2006, in devising ways to remove illegal immigrants from the U.S., Day took inspiration from the Nazis: "If it took the Germans less than four years to rid themselves of 6 million Jews, many of whom spoke German and were fully integrated into German society, it couldn't possibly take more than eight years to deport 12 million illegal aliens, many of whom don't speak English and are not integrated into American society." That was too crazy even for WND, which scrubbed it off its website.

I knew WorldNutDaily was well... nutty. But ethnic cleansing? That's incredibly disturbing.

1. So we should take a page from the Nazi's??
Edited on Tue May-11-10 10:33 PM by Angry Dragon
The republicans are so afraid of their own shadow that they see Nazis behind and under every bush(might be a pun). So much hate and anger coming from the right perhaps they should leave and take their bigotry with them.

2. Get rid of the brown people, he'll start rantin' about Poles and Canucks
What a goober! What good is America if you can't eat barbecue, jerk chicken, golompki, spring rolls, spatzle, and lasagna off the same buffet?
I grew up, and live in (formerly) lily-white New England - both sides of my family DAR. What our "traditional" culture excelled at is hiding the truth - buried, bought off, lied about, or never mentioned.

3. Actually, the Germans had to invade lots of countries ...
...in order to "rid themselves" of 6 million Jews. The vast majority of Jews killed in the Holocaust weren't German.

So to follow their model: maybe we should rid Mexico of Mexicans.

5. There it is, in the naked form. Whenever you read it in its clothed form...
...this is what lies beneath.

8. Has he really never heard of the days of "no Irish need apply"?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-Irish_racism

Anti-Irish racism in Victorian Britain and 19th century United States included the stereotyping of the Irish as alcoholics, and implications that they monopolized certain (usually low-paying) job markets. In addition, some Irish immigrants married recently free black slaves and were subject to a brutal discrimination. They were often called “white Negroes". Throughout Britain and the US, newspaper illustrations and hand drawings depicted the Irish with the "ape like image" of Irish people's faces appeared to be primordial like a monkey's, and claims of evolutionary racism about the origin of Irish people as an "inferior race" compared to Anglo-Saxons were propagated.

Similar to other immigrant populations, they were sometimes accused of cronyism, and subjected to misrepresentations of their religious and cultural beliefs. The Irish were labelled as practicing Pagans and in that time (1800s), anyone not being a "Christian" in a traditional British sense was deemed "immoral" and "demonic". Catholics were particularly singled out, and indigenous folkloric and mythological beliefs and customs were ridiculed. Nineteenth century Protestant American "Nativist" prejudice against Irish Catholics reached a peak in the mid-1850s with the Know Nothing Movement, which tried to oust Catholics from public office. . . .

The 1862 song, "No Irish Need Apply", was inspired by NINA signs in London. Later the song was adapted by Irish Americans to include their experiences as well. The issue of job discrimination against Irish immigrants to the United States is a hotly debated issue among historians, with some insisting that the "No Irish need apply" signs so familiar to the Irish in memory were myths, and others arguing that not only did the signs exist, but that the phrase was also seen in print ads and that the Irish continued to be discriminated against in various professions into the 20th century.
