I'm not a white nationalist... Not because I don't think it's justified at this point, but because if you go down that road, it's not going to stop, and it would wind up killing people I care about.

That said, if the left continues allowing substandard degenerates like Gay to wreck all our institutions, that's what we're going to wind up with.

"White Nationalist" is one of those terms like "Election Denier" and "Conspiracy Theorist" and "Anti-Vaxxer" and a host of other monikers that the lunatic Left and the corporate globalists use to denigrate us and thereby prevent the sheeple from researching topics for themselves.

I've watched him before on several occasions. White identity politics is not really appealing to me.

That said, the further this goes, and the more I'm asked to grant decency towards people with brown skin in exchange for an obviously bloody future for my kids and grandkids, the more compelling he sounds.

Jared Taylor's American Renaissance is not just about protecting whites from the increasingly blatant anti-white biases (what you might call "white identity politics"): it's about our survival as a society and likely even your personal survival. The denial of racial aptitude differences drives most of the Democrats' policy agenda: If there are indeed no racial or gender differences in aptitudes and preferences, then all discrepancies between hiring vs. population demographics must be due to systemic racism and sexism. This in turn suggests that our aptitude tests that select job applicants are mostly just racist and sexist filters that must be eliminated in order to force job title demographis to match population demographics. Would you, for example, imagine that the FAA has already scrapped a spatial aptitude test entirely because it fails "too many" non-white people, and replaced it with a "biographical assessment" that filters out otherwise qualified whites, thereby producing a dangerous shortage of air traffic controllers? Would you imagine that the Biden administration would nominate an FAA director who is not a pilot and appears to know absolutely nothing about flying airplanes? Are you thinking about getting on an airplane soon? Maybe you should think again: https://www.amren.com/videos/2023/11/think-twice-before-you-fly/

I get it, and agree, but so would someone like Stephen Pinker, and he's just a realist, not an identarian.

But... Moderates like him have been fighting this sort of thing unsuccessfully for decades until people like Taylor (and to a much lesser degree, Trump) showed up.

So, I'm not criticizing Jared Taylor. He's needed. Nice words and reason don't work by themselves, clearly.

TBH, I think this has a lot more to do with spoiled women in consequence-free positions of authority than it does minorities. They push identity politics so hard because they can't recognize competence, productive activity, or rational decision making, so they can't make sense of disparate outcomes and just go to appearance because they're so vapid and idiotic.

Women dominate Democratic Party leadership, and in my personal experience they are also by far the most numerous beneficiaries of Affirmative Action. Women now increasingly control corporate management, including non-female managers, subordinates, and superiors, via the implicit expectation that they cannot be challenged.

Yep... And a lot of the time when they do things like push identity politics in the workplace ("MOAR WOMEN DOING STEM!"), they don't actually have an objective.

Ask what their success criteria is. Ask how many more women. Either they have to admit a desire for equality of outcome, or they have to be open to arguments as to why 50/50 is not feasible.

But they can't, and won't, give you success criteria, because they don't have a goal. They do this sort of thing because it validates and affirms them. A sizeable minority, if not a majority of women literally cannot tell the difference between work (or education, or the military, or politics) and therapy.
