"In 2015 I was worried that any future children I had would live in a world where their material living standards would suffer strictly for being White. In 2024 I no longer worry about this due to the decline of affirmative action and rapid destigmatization of white identity politics."
- A person who came out of the wokeness of the early 90s only to soon see:
Late night tv savagely mocking it,
Jared Taylor events being covered on C-Span,
The Bell Curve getting a fair airing in the mainstream press,
Biden confessing that 60s libs were soft on crime and insisting that all major parties now agreed that many criminals were irredeemable and needed to be locked up permanently
.., - would've had every reason to feel the same way.
But the anti-woke shift of the 90s wasn't actually sustainable because it was based on nothing solid. It was merely a temporary backlash to a movement that had bitten far more than it could digest and had to lay down in the corner for a moment while it processed it all, and while it's strongest opponents died off. And then by the 2010s it was back with a furious vengeance, and we all know what happened then.
Is there any reason to believe that the new more racially aware right can seriously stop this cycle from repeating? Is there any indication in general that white millennials, or even white zoomers will not continue to be at best 2017 liberals, with no immune defenses to whatever the hell the new cause is in the 2030s? And if not, how do you possibly justify this claim about what the future will look like for your children?
This is a very good point, and I certainly think we need to remain vigilant against a resurgence of antiwhite sentiment. I am actually going to publish a lot about how to get our arms around this in the long term, so stay tuned.
To be fair, the death of cancel culture on the right is a pretty big difference. If you are in a Con-inc bubble, or certain DR aligned tech groups - u probably are safe now . I’m just not sure this will mean much for anyone else given the near total absence of GOP partisans in the top ranks of corporate America. I can see the party wielding its force to protect people fired for trans blasphemy. But I don’t think it’ll do so for race realists. Or that it even has the human capital necessary to pull it off.

Also, I love your work Walt!

You can only argue antiwhite sentiment doesn’t exist with a straight face if you don’t work in corporate, government, or education in America.
Perfect point. The ratchet effect is undefeated. The only way out is WN militancy.
