Talk:White Separatism/Archive 1

David, quit mis-redirecting this article to promote only your own selfish POV verses a neutral and objective Wiki NPOV.

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=White_separatist&action=history

You AND YOUR ILK are the one POV "vandalizing" and "spamming" and reverting the NPOV article on separatism verses the POV one on supremacism.

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=White_separatist&action=history

Thanks! :D ---

"A supremacist -- of whatever race -- is distinct from a 'separatist.' A separatist may believe that his race is superior to other races in some or all characteristics, but this is not his essential belief. The separatist is defined by his wish for freedom and independence for his people. He wishes them to have their own society, to be led by their own kind, to have a government which looks out for their interests alone. The separatist does not wish to live in a multiracial society at all, so he naturally has no desire to rule over other races -- since such rule necessitates the multiracial society the separatist wants to avoid at all costs.

A supremacist, in contrast, demands a multiracial society, since it is the supremacist's express wish that he dominate or rule over other races in such a society, such rule often being justified by a doctrine of racial superiority."

Rewrite
I have completely rewritten in an attempt to follow Jimbo's advice on the mailing list --. I have also preemptively added a note that the neutrality of the article is disputed. Feel free to remove it if you feel it's NPOV enough. I imagine that it will be mercilessly edited in eny event.

Cheers, BCorr ? &#1041;&#1088;&#1072;&#1081;&#1077;&#1085; 03:41, 26 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Actually, Jimbo only reveals his own biased POV and advices a pc-slanted book, accordingly.

I'm a little confused. Why are people so adamant against having an article "White Separatism"? Rather than banging our head against the wall fighting this guy, why not just make a better article?

The junk this guy is inserting is junk. It looks like a quote from someone, and if it is, then it's probably worth treating in a short article on the subject.

There's nothing inherently wrong (that I know of) about having an article on "White Separatism" as distinct from (but related to) "White Supremacy".

Here's a book about it: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0801865379/102-0949346-1338507?v=glance

My dictionary (American Heritage) has separate entries for "White separatist" and "White supremacy".

The (in my opinion, disgusting) point of view expressed in the quote is of encyclopedic interest because it *is* a point of view held by at least some people who take action in the world, action that should concern us all.

More information about the WikiEN-l mailing list"

However, the article now is more NPOV with the addition of the quote by an actual "white separatist", and whether or not you or JIMBO POV actually agrees with it or not, along with what was re-written. I will not revert it anymore as long as it stays relatively NPOV, which it is with my additions. Thanks for working with me, and Jimbo, on maintaining a wiki NPOV.

Best regards,

Paul Vogel

Replacing the quote
I replaced the quote and added more attribution to it. I think that NPOVs it enough. Of course it would be much better with an opposing view. --Spikey 21:56, 26 Feb 2004 (UTC)


 * That'll do nicely. Perhaps now it won't be cut'n'pasted everywhere ... It's representative and has an attribution, which is better than it just being spammed across a bunch of articles. Of course, it could do with some deconstruction or an opposing quote or something. - David Gerard 22:27, Feb 26, 2004 (UTC)

From User talk:Spikey:


 * I had hoped that we had come to some sort of consensus (or at least truce) at the white supremacist article. So I'm wondering why you feel that the quote (and one opposing it) is necessary for the article? I won't repeat it here, but there are deeper reasons behind its original inclusion in the article, referred to here: Wikipedia talk:Requests for comment. Thanks, BCorr ? &#1041;&#1088;&#1072;&#1081;&#1077;&#1085; 22:01, 26 Feb 2004 (UTC)


 * I don't mind the quote's presence with proper attribution and context. Taking this to the talk page ... - David Gerard 22:30, Feb 26, 2004 (UTC)

I don't feel the reasons behind the quote's inclusion have any bearing on the content's POV. Technically, I put this quote in, currently. I do not hold these views, and would honestly be offendended to be accused of holding them. I am not officially Jewish, but I grew up in a Jewish community, and I am offended by most to all of the content in the referenced article. On the other hand, my spiritual/religious/philosophical beliefs compel me to keep this quote, properly attributed. We should not censor this POV, we should let it be heard, qualified with its source, and let people make up their own minds. That is the essence of NPOV.

The essence of a NPOV is a NPOV, and is NOT whatever POV the leftist-pc editors happen to hold.

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=White_separatist&action=history

Let's keep the wiki factual and objective or it will lose its credibility. Thanks! :D


 * Wow, good work Paul. I looked over that edit history, and this is one particularly good example of you trying to improve an article only to be harassed by idealogues. I think the article could stand some improvement, but its sure alot better than the redirect that you found. Thanks for helping out on the cutting edge of NPOV once again Mr. Vogel, I tip my hat. Sam Spade 07:42, 17 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Thanks Sam! Such idealogues of the left or of the right will ALWAYS attack the unbiased and objective and middle-ground NPOV and then falsely accuse you of being the bigoted or biased ENEMY! LOL! :D Thanks again, Sam, for all of your support!!!

Best regards,

this is original 'research'
In practice it is hard to imagine how a separatist society could be organised without being also racist. Either all races must occupy entirely separate areas of land, and interact only only as equals (as two countries sharing a border) or one race must hold supremacy over the others in that it controls those aspects of society that cannot be separated, such as military, land rights or pollution control.

Actually its clearly not research at all, but either way its not based on fact, but rather editorial opinion. The wiki has no place for this. Sam Spade 19:45, 31 Mar 2004 (UTC)

article
I don't see how the above debate/discussion is helping the article, but if you can find a way to bring it back on track, so much the better. Sam Spade 04:25, 4 Apr 2004 (UTC)


 * It's helpful to know what these people consider "white" and on what basis they think the "white race" should be kept separate from others&mdash;but if the above discussion is any indication, they have no idea if the term has any meaning beyond "people who look sufficiently like me". &mdash;67.71.79.111 04:30, 4 Apr 2004 (UTC)

I'm not sure who you mean by 'they' but if they=paul, thats not much of a research project you've got going here. Sam Spade 04:32, 4 Apr 2004 (UTC)


 * By "they" I mean "white separatists", of course, and since I haven't been able to pin down a definition by reading the literature, I thought it might be helpful to ask people who have first-hand knowledge of the ideology&mdash;but apparently they know no more than I do. &mdash;67.71.79.111 04:36, 4 Apr 2004 (UTC)

hehe... yeah. Nyways, you might like to turn on the history channel, or look at a book, or even around the wiki. Check out eugenics or Racial policy of Nazi Germany. Sam Spade 19:44, 4 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Or instead of those obviously biased "sources" how about this definiton of "White" from the National Alliance White Separatist website, itself?

"An Aryan Society

We must have new societies throughout the White world which are based on Aryan values and are compatible with the Aryan nature. We do not need to homogenize the White world: there will be room for Germanic societies, Celtic societies, Slavic societies, Baltic societies, and so on, each with its own roots, traditions, and language. What we must have, however, is a thorough rooting out of Semitic and other non-Aryan values and customs everywhere. We must once again provide the sort of social and spiritual environment in which our own nature can express itself in music, in art and architecture, in literature, in philosophy and scholarship, in the mass media, and in the life-styles of the people.

In specific terms, this means a society in which young men and women gather to revel with polkas or waltzes, reels or jigs, or any other White dances, but never to undulate or jerk to negroid jazz or rock rhythms. It means pop music without Barry Manilow and art galleries without Marc Chagall. It means films in which the appearance of any non-White face on the screen is a sure sign that what's being shown is either archival newsreel footage or a historical drama about the bad, old days. It means neighborhoods, schools, work groups, and universities in which there is a feeling of family and comradeship, of a shared heritage and a shared destiny. It means a sense of rootedness, which in turn engenders a sense of responsibility and energizes a moral compass, so that people once again know instinctively what is wholesome and natural and what is degenerate and alien. It means spiritual feeling coming from the soul and unencumbered by superstition or dogma, soaring free and reaching far above today 's priest-ridden, church-bound spirituality."

I don't have any real "difficulty" figuring out what "White" means, whatsoever.

-

A White separatist is a person who believes that those who are white or Caucasian should have separate institutions or even separate societies and governments from those considered to be of other non-white races. This is one among many forms of separatism.

Many white separatists are also believers in white supremacy, but there are some others who claim that they do not believe in the superiority of their race over others, as "superiority" is relative. Some consider the segregationists of the Southern United States and the advocates of apartheid in South Africa as being white separatists, but both groups also had a concomitant belief in the inherent inferiority of non-whites peoples to properly rule themselves or over other races &mdash;an aspect of white supremacy.

Kevin Alfred Strom, on the National Alliance's white separatist radio program American Dissident Voices, defined the difference between white separatism and supremacy this way:


 * "A supremacist&mdash;of whatever race&mdash;is distinct from a 'separatist.' A separatist may believe that his race is superior to other races in some or all characteristics, but this is not his essential belief. The separatist is defined by his wish for freedom and independence for his people. He wishes them to have their own society, to be led by their own kind, to have a government which looks out for their interests alone. The separatist does not wish to live in a multiracial society at all, so he naturally has no desire to rule over other races&mdash;since such rule necessitates the multiracial society the separatist wants to avoid at all costs."

Sociologists Betty A. Dobratz and Stephanie Shanks-Meile contend that terms such as "white separatism" and "white nationalism" are euphemisms that have been adopted by what they refer to as neo-nazi and racist groups as a tactical move in order to make their views seem less extreme.

The anti-racist group Turn it Down, which campaigns against White Power music, defines the term "white separatist" thusly:


 * "white separatist: a euphemism for white supremacist. The label has been adopted by individuals and organizations to obscure or present a more benevolent facade for the beliefs in racial segregation and/or neo-Nazism."

The counter-point to these Jewish social marxist critics above to all such "white separatism" is continued by Strom:

"Jewish behavior has traditionally been supremacist: Until recent decades, Jews lived exclusively in other people's societies and that is still the dominant mode of Jewish life today. Jews have a long tradition -- both secular and religious -- of belief in the unique, superior, and 'chosen' nature of Jews when compared to all other peoples.

Jews also have a long-established behavior-pattern of suppressing the racial defense mechanisms of their host peoples, defenses which they denounce today as 'racism' -- while at the same time hypocritically practicing racial exclusivity among themselves -- cherishing Jewish ancestry as the very definition of Jewishness, protecting themselves from assimilation and intermarriage, promoting exclusively Jewish schools, defining any opposition to them as a special and sometimes criminal act ('anti-Semitism'), et cetera.

The height of Jewish hypocrisy is reached when they condemn White people who believe in the White separatist ideals of, say, Thomas Jefferson or the National Alliance, as 'White supremacists' -- when the Jews themselves are the most thoroughgoing racial supremacists the world has ever seen."


 * I have removed this quote, and as requested here is the explanation. It's not about White Separatism. Keep the article on subject. It is irrelevant to the article whether Jews are supremacist or not. If some people use 'Jewish supremacy' as an excuse for white supremacy (or separatism) then say so: "Some separatists believe that White Separatism is necessary to counter a perceived 'Jewish Supremacy' movement". DJ Clayworth 15:38, 5 Apr 2004 (UTC)

It is irrelevant to the article whether Jews are supremacist or not. or

((rv #2) 'kay, this speech isn't a counterpoint to the arguments raised, but a rant about Jews. it has nothing to do with this topic)

That is only your own POV opinion.

Such "lying hypocrisy" by these two Jews is actually very relevant to the article.

I find it typical and amusing that Strom's pointing out Betty and Stephanie's "lying hypocrisy" is considered to be "anti-semitism".

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=White_separatist&action=history

Why is it not considered "anti-Aryanism" for these two social marxist Jews to slander "White Separatism" by falsely calling it "White Supremacy"? -PV

Because they don't condemn all Aryans for the actions of a few. Unlike some... DJ Clayworth 16:12, 5 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Strom is not condemning all Jews for the actions of a few. He is just pointing out the "lying hypocrisy" of those two specific social marxist Jews, Betty and Stephanie, for their biased slandering of "White separatism" by their falsely calling it "White supremacy".-PV

In what way are they hypocrites? And why is it relevant that they are Jewish? DJ Clayworth 18:44, 5 Apr 2004 (UTC)

In this way are they hypocrites and this is why it is relevant that these critics all "just happen" to be Jewish:
