The Smithsonian & White Privilege


Today, the Smithsonian Museum posted a tour-de-force on the problems of the white race, inclusive of white privilege, systemic white racism, white supremacy, white superiority, white nationalism and all other phrases having to do with the sinfulness of being white.

I object.

I object, if only because the whole notion of whiteness is a deflection to what the enemy is really railing against and that is culture that Christian white people through the centuries have produced. The bee in the Cultural Marxist bonnet is not so much the whiteness of the white man (though that certainly remains a component of their abhorrence) as it is the belief system, customs, and culture that is associated in their Marxist minds with being “White.”

That, that is the case is seen in words of the article linked above,

“Whiteness and white racialized identity refer to the way that white people, their customs, culture, and beliefs operate as the standard by which all other groups of are compared. “

You see the complaint is really not about the whiteness of white people so much as it is their customs, culture, and beliefs. It is not primarily our white skin that is the ultimate put off for the multi-hued Marxists (though that certainly bugs the colored Marxists) as it is our world and life view. Further, if one peels back that world and life view one would find it is our religion that the Cultural Marxists are enraged over. Even further from there, if we keep peeling the onion we would find that their rage is ultimately pointed at God and His Christ who sits in heaven. It is not so much white people that the multi-hued Cultural Marxists are trying to destroy as it is the God of the Christian White man. If they could get rid of the Triune God of the Bible and His ruling Christ they wouldn’t bother with their bitching and moaning about the white man.

If we consider their complaint about white culture one must keep in mind that culture is merely the outward expression of a people’s inward beliefs. Culture is theology externalized. Culture is the outward manifestation about what a people believe concerning God. Culture says, “this is what we believe about God.” So, when the multi-hued practitioners of the Frankfurt school and their God forsaken new proletariat complain about “whiteness,” they are echoing voices of long past saying, “We will not have this man rule over us.”

The enemy snipes and cavils for one reason and one reason only and that is because they own a different God than the white man owned as the white man built Western civilization. And even though the heartbeat of Western civilization is all but stopped, the remaining shallow and weak pulse of Western Civ. and the Christianity that created it still is enough to send these mavens of Moloch into a irrational rage. They can’t get their hands directly on God and so they are clever enough to know that if they can genocide the one people group which God has been pleased to use to carry the perfume of His glory for the last millennium and more then they will succeed in doing to the God of the Bible what Lewis’ demon horde did to Aslan.

So they attack white supremacism, white privilege, white nationalism, white superiority, and whitey white white-man. All of this hysteria is about pulling God from His throne.

God sits in heaven and laughs.

All of this lament over the white man is merely evidence of adherents of a false god lamenting over the fact that their god is not in the ascendancy. The problem for them though is that their Cultural Marxist god doesn’t exist.

Psalm 115:But their idols are silver and gold,
    made by human hands.
They have mouths, but cannot speak,
    eyes, but cannot see.
They have ears, but cannot hear,
    noses, but cannot smell.
They have hands, but cannot feel,
    feet, but cannot walk,
    nor can they utter a sound with their throats.
Those who make them will be like them,
    and so will all who trust in them.


The gods of the multi-hued Cultural Marxist is a deaf, dumb, blind, irrational, retarded deity. As such the Cultural Marxists, per Psalm 115 are likewise deaf, dumb, blind, irrational and retarded. They cannot pull the God of the Bible and His Christ off the throne though they certainly can, if God wills it, defeat His people.

The only way we, as God’s people … we, as the children of our hero Fathers who built Western civilization … we, as those who have inherited the great and rich legacy of men and women who saw God more clearly than we do can be defeated is by refusing to return to our first love. However, if we will not practice repentance, if we will not cease surrendering to every Cultural Marxist demand, if we will not once again become familiar with God’s law as the battle ax to slice and dice cultural Marxism we will, for a season, perish.

We must fight! However fighting apart from repentance is promissory of absolute and total defeat.

God grant us grace to both fight and repent. Otherwise what we are facing makes the French Revolution look like a Aesop fable.
