Influence of Tsarist and Nazi Propaganda Tactics on Modern Normalization of Racism

The interesting pattern in the proliferation of political and religious conspiracies in the twentieth to twenty-first century is that many of their sources are rooted in Nazi era propaganda and older anti-Jew tactics. Many of these tactics and conspiracies emerge particularly in that era of pamphleteers and the technological advancements in the twentieth-century of the press and radio. “White ethnonationalists” are spreading racist propaganda across social media as a habit of grifting to game the system of the Pay to Play era of social media.

Open racism is now once more profitable!

Classic tactics advanced in the early digital age of the internet troll are still effective. Some White American, Australian, European is radicalized gradually through wide normalization of racism. One common tactic is by spreading an image that has a fabricated quote from Lincoln, Franklin, Kalergi and so forth supporting the idea of the United States as a White ethnostate, White genocide, criticizing Jews, or arguing the inferiority of Black people.

Now, this not to deny that the past decades have given rise to a political age, where people were seen as bigots for even just holding up a flag of their nation (see Liberals and Nationalism: Countering the Linguistic Coup on Western Values). I cannot deny for example recorded statements made by certain individuals like Anthony Bourdain. Bourdain was in Cologne, Germany in 2016 during the Donald Trump election cycle in the U.S. Anthony Bourdain, who is a Jew held beliefs similarly expressed in Katie Engelhart of Vice News interview with Dov Maimon years ago speaking against Palestinian birth-rates stated, that “demography is the key to everything.” Bourdain expressed his belief that race-mixing will magically fix racial tensions among the human species, stating that the only solution is to make everyone Brown; and he believed this will happen in the next 70-80 years. This is of course a ridiculous position, in that it is similar to the naive notion, that racism against Black people in the U.S. and the world would disappear if all Black people were middle-class and adopted middle-class behaviors, mannerisms, etc. Nevertheless, there are persons who think superficially like this.

. . . But then, this is what they (the anon propagandists and racist influencers on social media) do next: they tie this into the fabricated and distorted quotes of Kalergi about the “Eurasian-Negroid.” It builds a narrative, that contributes to the myth of Great White Replacement. It provides a window through which the early twentieth-century scientific racism, Nordicist theories and so forth can cyclically proliferate and reformulate for the furtherance and immortalization of Nazi propaganda.

When you press them, they rebut, “doesn’t disprove what is actually happening.”

The other recognizable pattern is that the “demography is the key to everything” position of the Zionist is merely the same position as the White ethnonationalist, race realist, “White Identitarian” and whatever they continue to rebrand themselves as. It is just a feature of ethnonationalism1, no matter the race or group propagating its position.

You know, how M.L.K. was called a Communist by his racist enemies — this is the formulaic tactic also of Cold War red scare propaganda upon which all U.S. right-wing media is based (e.g., overuse of the term “the radical left” against any opposition), or the propaganda of Soviet Union defector Yuri Bezmenov on how the Soviet Union plans to subvert the United States.

However, we learn that the Americans are subverting themselves from within, through the bombardment of racialist propaganda, even by artificially boosting and altering social media algorithms in controlled digital spaces. What about the subversion they partake in?

The American is confused like a headless chicken, and every country sees that — a weak, immature people who are not exemplars of civilization. The White racists are blithely ignorant of how the world sees the characteristically anti-intellectual, arrogant White American as embodied in the Trump Administration. The White racist does not like this honesty, so they ready their scapegoats, by saying that the U.S. and Europe’s decline is due to multiculturalism (the melting pot), immigration policies and America losing its majority White Wonderland demography and identity. Also, because many of the political Right’s arguments and positions hinge on originalist claims about how or what the framers/founders of the U.S. constitution thought about American Identity, Race, Religion and Politics, when they are rebutted (or their dishonest tactics are revealed), they then pivot to a stance like “post-constitutionalism”/radical constitutionalism (Thomas Zimmer, Meet the Ideologue of the “Post-Constitutional” Right).

In the arguments of the White ethnonationalists, they bring up the homogenization of Japan, China, and Korea.

“Why can they have a Japan for the Japanese, and a China for the Chinese. We want our own homeland.”

But this is the American Republic. We are not China. We are not Japan. We have an expression to contribute to the world and the history of civilizations; and the fate of all the people of this continent, the Islands, and of Central and South America are yet to be written. We refuse to have this written by a group of racist people who hide underneath the conveniences, self-affirmation and comforts they believe ethnonationalism brings to their souls.

“The entire American system, like housing, is built around avoiding Black people.”

I came across repeats of this statement.

With no self-awareness of the history of racism, colonialism and slavery and the consequences:

“We just want to be left alone.”

If you say “We?” they might add:

“And. . .and every other race knows that and try to avoid you too. [Insert picture of Black man about to kill Iryna Zarutska]. Never forgive. Never forget.”

To try to anger you. When you become angry, they use racist, stereotypical tropes about Black people not being able to control their anger. If you one-up them in an argument, they peruse your social media profile and try to insult your character or intelligence. This is more than trolling. It is a psychological operation of a fiend.

Iryna Zarutska was brutally stabbed to death in a random attack on a train by a homeless man with a criminal history, and her family has demanded justice and public safety reform, but the racists have incorporated her into their Great Replacement (white genocide) fear propaganda. They don’t point the people to organizations, research and professionals working on homelessness and public safety reforms. Instead, they run to social media and foment hatred of Black men and migrants.

This behavior is what I would expect from a foreign intelligence agent, not Americans themselves, but this is the problem in our culture; and they export their racism out into the world against Black people at the basis.

In the meantime, many of these type of people are deliberately targeting Black people to blame for the absolute degenerate manner in which the U.S. leads the World, and as we slide into being seen as a regional power.

Forgeries and disinformation were a tradition of Tsarist Russia, as the case of the Protocols (Maurice Joly: Origins of the Protocols of Zion and its Impact on Theosophy) reveals. Yet, in this country, that tradition has been taken up by these so-called proponents of “The Great White Replacement,” the large and traceable network of right-wing donors and media, and even individuals on social media who do not even live in the U.S. doing the great work of every trickster god known to myth.

  1. I can go in many directions from this, e.g., bringing to light the kind of limitations these ideas play on the conditioning of American notions about race and ethnicity. I am undoubtedly of the view that, just as a period of human development ended after the wars followed by animalistic resistance to unavoidable change, we are now on the cusp of another phase of human development, and I do not mean in some spiritual sense. As time has gone by, a nihilism has risen, and Americans in particular have given themselves over to the algorithmic machinations of systems, identities, policing and surveillance — even adopting the functions of these systems and reflecting them onto each other. ↩︎
