The British Repudiate Shakespeare Because His Success “Benefits the Ideology of White Supremacy”

March 18, 2025

What has happened to the Western World that causes it to deny and bury its successes because the successes allegedly embarrass nonwhites? See this.

Cancer Care: The Role ... Marik, Paul E Buy New $12.95 (as of 04:42 UTC - Details) For decades the majority of Western intellectuals, “artists,” and university professors have worked assiduously to demonize Western accomplishments as accomplished via looting of superior non-white cultures.  Not long ago a Swedish anti-white activist made a “documentary” “proving” that the original inhabitants of Sweden were black. How blacks survived such low vitamin D absorption from such weak sunshine he did not say.  

It did not matter.  The Western intellectual world was delighted at this “proof” that the accomplishments attributed to whites were really an appropriation of black accomplishments.

The problem with this satisfaction is that there are no black or non-white precedents for Shakespeare from whom Shakespeare can be said to have stolen his work.  The solution is to deep-six Shakespeare for being a racist for embarrassing non-whites with the sublimity of his art.

We have reached the point in Western Civilization to the extent it still exists at which success is equated with “white supremacy.” As the Western intellectuals have arranged it, the only way the West cannot be racist is to be a failure.  This is why everywhere in the West the governments are making the Western countries into Sodom and Gomorrah Towers of Babel. 

For decades  Shakespeare, who in my student days was the example of the best use of the English language, is today portrayed in university courses as a racist, sexist, homophobic, white supremacist.

In Shakespeare’s day there was no such thing as a white supremacist. But facts are not a component of Western “scholarship” today.  The purpose of Western scholarship is denunciation of “racist” Western civilization.

Anti-western intellectuals use criticism as a weapon. Its object is an enemy it wants not to refute but to destroy.  Criticism is no longer an end in itself but simply a means. It essential pathos is indignation. Its essential task, denunciation. Criticism is hand to hand combat, and in such a combat the point is not whether the opponent is noble, equal or interesting, the point is to strike him.

My use of Marx does not mean that I am a Marxist.  It is my illustration that Western intellectual and liberal-left professors are, whether they have sufficient education to realize it, utilizing Marx’s tools for overturning a society.

For years American and British universities that are homes to Woke academics have refused to teach Shakespeare, thus depriving an English B.A. degree of content. Shakespeare, say the dumbshit professors, is racist, because he allegedly links beauty with whiteness.

The London theater  has initiated “anti-racist” seminars to discuss “decolonizing” Shakespeare’s plays.

So, what are white ethnicities confronted  with?  

They are confronted with being coerced by their own governments and intellectuals into accepting white inferiority. Whites can only justify their existence by submitting to the rule of non-whites. Jean Raspail correctly described Europe’s demise in 1973 in The Camp of the Saints.

If you haven’t read this book, you do not know your future.  It is independent of Trump, Macron, Putin, Zelensky. It is happening despite any Trump regime deportations of immigrant-invaders.

The simple fact is that white people are doomed, because their intellectuals, schools and governments have convinced them that they are racists guilty of racism, and that justice requires white ethnicities to accept second class citizenship in law.
