I don’t necessarily agree with that business oriented mindset, but if iTunes were to remove all offensive music I would say a good portion of the music that people frequently buy would be gone. Lady Gaga, 50 Cent, Eminem, etc. I’m pretty sure that some of their lyrics can offend people.

I would also like to point out that on the iTunes music store if you want to buy “hate music” you have to go looking for it–it is not listed on their main homepage. Furthermore, if someone went looking for this music I feel comfortable in saying that they would be able to get a hold of it even if it wasn’t hosted on iTunes.

People often approach social problems by attacking the symptoms–in this case “hate music” (I put that in quotations because that’s not actually a music genre). However, people forget to attempt to understand why there are people out there who even feel like this in the first place. If we can foster a society in which people do not feel the need to feel this way, then perhaps no one would make money by selling “hate music.”

You don’t stop ideas by silencing the expression of them, you stop them by confronting them with better ideas. The desire to control, silence, and snuff out competing views cannot be healthy no matter how awful those views are. Don’t become what you despise.

In fact, open expression should be one of our paramount values. Let every voice and every idea be heard. If you’re proud of your views and secure in their correctness, then you won’t be afraid when the other guy opens his mouth to speak.

You’re comparing humans to animals, it just doesn’t work. Lions and tigers are separate species; they are closely related enough to make children, but the children are sterile. That’s the definition of species, when two animals can mate and have viable offspring (IE – offspring that can in turn have their own children) then they are the same species. Therefore, there are no separate species of humanity, we can all have viable children together. That’s why it is ridiculous as well as sacrilegious to try to compare humanity to animals such as cats, apes, or elephants. It’s like trying to compare apples to oranges, or even more like trying to compare humans to amoebas. The logic just doesn’t stand up under scrutiny.

It’s your kind of WS white people that sometimes makes me ashamed of being white. I pray for God to bring the day closer when, because of integrated marriage, we can all say with certitude that none of us is “pure” anything but human. And we will always have diversity – no matter how much the human genome commingles, we will always have extremes of skin tone and facial features, and if you think any different it’s only because you have no idea how things work on a genetic level. We will never have a genetically homogeneous society, and praise God for that! Variety is the spice of life.

If you think that white people are an endangered “species”, all I can say is God can make it stop if he so desires. However, if it is happening because it is within God’s wisdom that it should happen, neither you nor I can argue with the wisdom of God. And if the day ever comes that He announces, in His wisdom, that the so-called “white race” is finished with, null and void, I’ll be with everybody else singing His praises in the streets that He was so wise as to wipe that stain off the face of the earth!

Now, chaos, you can go have your temper tantrum now, just don’t go getting’ all cranky enough to shoot any of my fellow humans.

I’m afraid self-identified ethnicity can be genetically correlated to a degree of about 99% with the individual’s population of ancestral origin. Even the Swiss of Italian, German and French ancestry form discernible clusters when tested and are therefore identifiably genetically distinct. Try telling a forensic anthropologist or medical examiner there are not clear morphological and skeletal differences as well. We enjoy a physically distinct existence, and these have real world, civilization impacting consequences aside from the aesctetic formality of preserving fair hair and eyes – though the latter is not nothing for I would hate to see what is beautiful pass from this life, the only life we have.

“Let me guess – you’re white aren’t you? Hmmmm….”

I’m of Northwestern European descent.

Further, there is the question of the adaptiveness of what is apparently the Jewish group survival strategy. I not so long ago studied under noted Straussians, one of whom was portrayed as a minor character in the novel Ravelstein (no, he was not Bloom, but his good friend). The Straussians were the only men who seemed to me to take seriously the question of what it means to be a man and what is the good life. Now in his first lecture he all but came out and stated his belief in the biologically based ability of the peoples that did create, to create, Western Civilization. He also expressed the importance to himself of his Jewishness. Now, this man, these men, are atheists and believe the especial virtues of the Jewish people are genetically endowed – obviously. I experienced him as a palpably descent man and one who was once a brilliant scholar, though then on the downside of his mental abilities.

We all know, though I’ll bet few would have the courage to state it, what influence he and his ilk had in taking our country to war; and just why they did that – to secure the existence of their beloved Jewish people. I cannot fully blame them, I know what it is to love one’s people. Their support for open borders here, and not in their own homeland, is motivated by same. But it is folly. I would like to think that there is a space in which intelligent men of good will can discuss such things without resorting to the gutter tactic of smears which inciting the Pavlovian responses. To put it bluntly, the survival of the Jewish people is dependent upon the continued existence and good will of my race. There is no other people, certainly not the Chinese, who give a damn nor would put up with such nonsense. And if the Chinese were told they did not exist, had no interest in continuing to exist, nor were not a preeminent people from the perspective of civilization building capacity, they very least they would do is laugh.

All those ‘in the know’ know that is the truth, or well should.

P.S. Unless one of your will come out and plainly state human groups do not in fact exist, or if they do have no evolved affinity for co-ethnics, or if they do have said affinity it can and should be extirpated in them, and apply this standard across the board, and not just towards those of European descent, your hypocrisy and implicit genocidalism will have been exposed. No way around that.

Then I would like to see you apply that standard across the board.

“Until anyone can show me a genuine DNA test that proves that they are “pure white” (which I am certain there is no such thing; scientists can’t even come up with a definition of what race is!)”

Race is an extended family, slightly inbred, which springs from a common source. We share genes and gene frequencies in common with lower primates and so on down the tree of life. Why not do away with those distinctions as well? But it may be argued, ‘Humans and lower primates cannot produce offspring if breed together.’ Well now, tigers and lions, though classified as separate species, can. Why not see to it that African elephants and Asians elephants are breed together, after all, there is a diminishing supply of both, so why not consolidate the stock? Because that would be an act of ideologically imposed nihilism which destroys bio-diversity which we are informed we should value, no? You see, it is precisely the unique genes and relative gene frequencies which make us who we are, both individually and collectively, and we wish to remain ourselves. And we have an evolved affinity for those most genetically similar to ourselves (genetic similarity theory); of course it would be that way for social animals who co-evolved in groups and depend upon one another for survival in their unique environments of evolutionary adaptation. Your whole enterprise is therefore immoral because it flouts the evolved basis of the moral instincts. That is unless you want to go with transhumanism, in which case I’ll say, ‘Fair enough.’

Hey, kensh1ro, your dry cleaner called. Your white sheet with the eyeholes is ready, but they can’t get the blood stains out of your brown shirt.

When the decision is made based on the content alone, rather than purely commercial considerations, then that IS censorship.

Like when WalMart issues censored versions of rap music.

BTW, I agree that all rap music is NOT hate speech. Some of it is actually quite good, and I’m an old white guy (who listened to Grand Master Flash back in the day)

The hatemongers WANT their garbage banned, so it will be more popular with kids.

I say, give them all the microphone cable they want…and they will hang themselves with it.

The free marketplace of ideas is still the best way to expose this garbage and ensure it ends up in the Dumpster where it belongs.

Point number two: anybody who has the gall to claim that all rap music is hate music obviously doesn’t know jack about rap music. You are showing off your own ignorance and you sound like a fool.

So-Called ‘Racial’ ‘Purity’ of Blonde, Blue-Eyed Scandinavians a Myth (http://www.itsyourtimes.com/?q=node/3699/print)

DNA testing for ethnicity (http://www.pathway.com/more_in.....5Qod0SovLg)

Until anyone can show me a genuine DNA test that proves that they are “pure white” (which I am certain there is no such thing; scientists can’t even come up with a definition of what race is!) then any arguments they want to make about being a “persecuted minority” are pretty much moot points.

If someone sullied your reputation over the radio, wouldn’t you take them to court for slander? I’m willing to bet those babies crying about censorship would be the first to do so.

Of course it is never considered by you legitimate to censor the daily allotment of anti-White dross my people are subjected to by yes, the you-know-who’s. We are told we alone are guilty of the Original Sins of racism, xenophobia, homophobia, sexism, anti-Semitism by which we are responsible for all the ills of all the people of the world. We are told, paradoxically, that our people don’t exist, and if it is conceded that we do exist, that our existence is of no value – that is if it is even conceded our existence is not of negative value. It is no less than Julius Streicher was tortured (yes, tortured) and executed at Nuremberg for.

It is genocidalist rubbish.

As for iTunes, they are a private business. If they choose to self-censor, that is their choice. It has nothing to do with the Bill of Rights, it has to do with customer service and the profit motive. Would you, if iTunes did self-censor, try to take them to court for violating their own rights? Of course not, that would be ridiculous. It’s just like this comments blog; it belongs to SPLC, and they can censor anybody they want to. As a matter of fact, I’m surprised that SPLC has let some of you guys get away with some of the things you have said. It’s a testament to their love of the Bill of rights that they have.
