I did not kill George Floyd The attempt to hold all whites responsible for the death of Floyd shows what a dead-end woke politics is. Brendan O’Neill There’s a new sin. Forget gluttony. Forget sloth. The great moral error today is whiteness. To be white is to be fallen. Whiteness has become a kind of original sin, an inherited moral defect one must atone for throughout one’s life. In the wake of the brutal execution of George Floyd by police in Minneapolis, this almost religious treatment of whiteness as an existential flaw has gone uber-mainstream. Listen to the  Archbishop of Canterbury . Yesterday he called on ‘white Christians’ to ‘repent of our own prejudices’. Repent, ye sinners!

For the most part, first-world herds obediently wear masks as they are told, and commit economic suicide by staying at home. That is not the problem. The real trouble was trying to manifest the death and infection numbers, keep the doctors and medical staff quiet, prevent people from noticing empty hospitals and maintain the semblance of legality of executive orders that are outrageous acts of unconstitutional tyranny. This information could potentially wake up the herds. The information war is too large for the establishment to control. The truth has been getting out despite the sometimes tepid and scientifically limited reporting of the alt media. Consider this little tidbit in the propaganda war. Search for the (...
