True dat!
Please don't feed the Africans! I thought that when I was 8 years old and saw a Sally Struthers "cry for the children" commercial and was absolutely disgusted. I guess I'm a monster born without a heart, LOL.

I was wondering about this very thing earlier today:
Why are some of us , like you, naturally able to see through this crap from a young age, when others (like me) take years and years to come out of the fog?
Mary,
Did you ever honestly feel any pity for a starving African child, or were you just pretending and going along with everyone else? Inquiring minds would love to know!
I have never been able to even pretend to have the politically correct feelings that I was supposed to have. It caused me some difficulties, as you can imagine.
I wish I could claim otherwise Mindweapon, but yes, I very much did feel for them.
I should add that my parents ran a group home for males varying in ages between 11-18, and as a result over the years I lived with a few non-Whites, as it only came to an end when I was 18. Perhaps this personalized it too much?
As well as that, my Father was (and is) a raving lunatic libtard. I was doomed from the start
I am so grateful to free of any such mind-viruses today.
I am glad you are free of it too! Welcome to Reality Land! It may not be the Happiest Place on Earth, but it’s certainly the Best.
Its not wrong to feel compassion for someone not of your race Mary. Heck even the folk of the 19th century, people who mostly understood race and humanity better than we do, felt the desire to help Africans. Its part of the altruistic aspect of our race and I supose a bit of Christianity too
That said, whats hard to accept for most in the upper classses is that its wasted and that the money would be better spent on those other folks like yourself.
The poor and working classes often make the more afluent uncomfortable “that could be me” instead of grateful or understanding that they are your people a lot like you and if you are Christian, the people who are your neighbors, he ones you are enjoined to love as yourself
Once you get past the BS its all fine. You’ll learn the best way to help is to help those who will help you. A gift deserves a gift, says the Havamal or to quote an old Italian proverb “Were each to sweep his own doorstep, the world would be clean.”
What matters is you learned, are learning and working.
I usually give money to the local charities that benefit our local white community. One day I was surprised, never seen an African charity ask for money in the town street before, a local older conservative Catholic teacher was running it. Rather then walking away and being rude, I donated 5 cents to be sarcastic instead, the old lady catholic looked rather disappointed, as I could see very little money in her kitty, she’d been there most of the day, I started talking about overpopulation and sustainability, that was a couple of years ago, there hasn’t been an African charity since.
Even at school when I was literally forced to undergo a 40 hour famine charity, I cheated and ate, nor did I collect money…
Ha, good job!
Note the Catholic role in opposing Planned Parenthood. There are however, people who say Planned Parenthood targets Christian countries over Muslim ones. Moroccans vigorously opposed the abortion boat coming to Morocco, yet they vote for Leftist parties in the Netherlands. I think the Catholics get played for fools. As long as Christians keep Muslim families large, Muslims have the moral duty to turn the other cheek.
MW – who is helping the white families in North Dakota displaced/priced out of their homes by the oil industry? And how can they be helped? I am curious…
I don’t know.
I will hire them when I get up there. It will be a little while but they aren’t going anywhere.
…on second thought, if they aren’t smart enough to figure out on their own that they need to milk this oil/natural gas boom, then they might just be dead weight.
That’s a good point…I heard that McDonald’s workers up there are making $20 an hour. Then again, housing is probably at New York City-level prices right now, even at $20 an hour it’s hard to make that work.
Housing is in short supply and that equals higher prices.
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-01-25/north-dakota-oil-boom-brings-blight-with-growth-as-costs-soar.html
The only people being priced out are the lazy ones who refuse to work. Most of the home owners have figured out they can rent their shitty house for $5000 a month and move to an area where the costs are lower. Keep in mind the only expensive places to live are around the booms, my friend Craig Cobb bought a house for less than $3500. There are still plenty of cheap houses in ND just not around the big boom areas.
I always hated those feed the children commercials. They used to plague Animal Planet when I was a kid.
Foreign aid is a racket, and even from a liberal humanitarian perspective it causes far more harm than good when. One of the books that pushed me towards my awakening was The Road to Hell by Michael Maren. He documents the “aid” industry well and doesn’t shy away from depicting African brutality when it comes up.
How do you create 5 million starving Africans?
Feed 1 million of them.
On the positive side, many Africans are Christians, who do not like gay marriage imposed on them by Liberals. As Europe is dependent on natural resources from Africa, the Africans have quite some leverage. If only they were as cunning as the Arabs, they could pull an “Eurabia”.
It is quite funny to see Liberals like Bill Gates demanding foreign going to Africa, while at the same time imposing birth control, abortion and gay marriage on Africa. :confused:
I still feel bad for them, they are after all trapped in a situation that they have no hope of ever escaping. Likewise contact with the outside world largely placed them in that position. Even the liberals fundamentally recognize this fact with their slavish devotion to protecting what such isolated communities remain. But as our own power wanes as a group that will likely end.
Africa is too rich to be ignored, someone will have those resources, and I’d just as soon it not be a country that promotes generals who threaten the nuclear destruction of our cities.
Yeah, China is going to pretty mujch eat Africa. The ordinary Africans in SA and Zimbabwe want YT back, what’s that tell ya.
The fact is, whties who feel bad for Africans threaten white children. Those with excessive concern (feigned or real) and who make an industry of bring African “refugees” here, have blood on their hands.
The whole “feed da chilluns” crap must be ruthlessly mocked, most especially now, since the liberals have managed to degenerate our own country to be more like dysfunctional Africa.
I don’t see why they are starving. They can make fires, and there are weaker africans? Right? In fact why don’t we ship all of our obese negroes to them? Problems solved.
Sweet Odin the “Invisible Children” rally from highschool is creeping back into memory. IIRC, twas’ mostly [fat] chicks who cared and bought those expensive “hand made” bracelets.
The continent of Africa possesses half the world’s arable land, and is INSANELY blessed in natural resources, including minerals.
Yet they are ‘starving”.
Do NOT feed the Africans.
There is a lot of fertile soil, but also generally unfavourable (often extremely variable from year to year) climate, much endemic disease (crop, livestock and human diseases) and destructive fauna. Global corporate megafarming is able to overcome these difficulties much more easily than native subsistence farmers.
Malibya http://viacampesina.org/en/index.php/main-issues-mainmenu-27/agrarian-reform-mainmenu-36/759-libyan-land-grab-of-malis-rice-producing-land one example of corporate agriculture in Africa, is back in business since the Libyan and Malian coups.
More crop pests and diseases from the tropical south, Africa and Asia are making their way to our once fair, promised land. We will learn it is no longer easy to grow consistent crops every year on a small traditional scale and without expensive technology. Global trade, tourism and migration are bringing us many new plagues, probably working to the advantage of mega-scale corporate agriculture.
Saxon,
INteresting. I’m going to try the potato towers for myself this year. I haven’t had a problem with phytophthora on potatoes, but I have on tomatoes because i let t hem be too close to the ground. Aren’t potatoes phytopthora resistant nowadays?
So I’ll use fungicide if I have to do so. Of course if there’s doom, no fungicide.
One thing about the Northeast is that it’s not agricultural land in the first place. It’s supposed to be forests. The soil is acidic, and not very deep. The Midwest is natural ag land, more basic soil, much deeper A horizon.
So there’s a lot of things wrong with the idea that this country is going to be able to feed itself. THey think ag is magic. You know better than I that it isn’t, but believe me, I’ve had crop failures. Of course you learn more from the failures than the successes. I’ve gone from letting tomato plants lay on the ground, to jacking them up as high as I can on a fence as high as I can build it.
Did you use wooden box type potato towers, with holes in the sides to train the shaws out the sides? If you google Henley Potato Tower, they got 50 pounds out of one 4 sq foot tower. Each person needs say 365 pounds of potatoes per year, so 7 towers per person. Add a few for insurance, so 10 per person.
I’m going to try it. From what you’re saying, it’s not going to work — the whole urban gardener model is at best a hobby. I got to see for myself, because too many people have told me in the past, “Ah, yer gonna fail! I tried it, it doesn’t work, your just repeating mistakes made 40 years ago, and probably again before that!”
Maybe so. When you had potato towerse, did you train the shaws out the sides, and keep burying them from above? I always wondered and asked around, what is actually teh process that signals potatoes to stop producing tubers. What Henley Potato Tower people say is that the tubers get too hot and this tells them to stop making tubers. So you bury them to keep them cool. But the problem with burying t hem is that you get less photosynthesis becuase you bury the shaws.
But if you train the shaws out to the sides, you get the cooling effect of burying, AND the shaws get to grow into huge vines! I saw it on their site, where they got 50 pounds A jungle of potato vines!

I guess I’ll see if it works for me. I’ll post about it here and be honest.
So do you use any of the 40 centuries ideas in your work, Saxon?
One last thought — I gave Christianity a chance growing up, and everyone associated with it was stupid/crazy. Second, I have found that being mentally powerful provides rewards in life. I found what works. And anyone who tries to tell me, “Oh, there be dragons! Pride goeth before a Fall! Man’s extremity is God’s opporutnity! You’ll come back to the fold when you see that we were right after all!”
I really gave that a chance. My youth was tyrannized by that sort of thinking. But it was all bullshit. It was exactly like the people who said, “you can’t do that, you’ll fail, I tried it 40 years ago and it didn’t work. And there’s all these problems you’re going to have!”
And the thing is, I’m not dismissing the part where you tell me about all the technical problems I’m going to have with producing food. I believe you on that! But your anti-intellectualism is weakness.
We have to teach our kids how to thrive in the Rat Race. That much I know from hard experience. THere’s no hiding from the Rat Race.
The countryside may be being developed. maybe they are destorying traditional farming. I don’t doubt it. thing is, it’s fine with me. I want the collapse. we can’t stop them — they are destroying their own sustenance. we will suffer too, but I’m glad that Liberalism and Multiculturalism has a hard end date coming, thanks to the fact that they destroyed their own resources that they controlled.

Phytophthora is late blight, MW. Your garden apparently missed the epidemic of late blight (Phytophthora infestans) last year, and it wouldn’t attack tomatoes because they are near the ground — that would be anthracnose, septoria or some other disease. With the arrival of one or more virulent new strains from the Andes about ten years ago, and “mating type” hybrids that can produce overwintering spores, the Irish Potato Famine disease has become a major threat for organic growers or any grower with inadequate spraying equipment. Then there is the Spotted Wing Drosophila (an Asian fruit fly, look it up) that arrived in the Northeast in 2011, and proved it could overwinter and spread as far as Maine last year — and there goes the market for organic small fruit in the Northeast! I disagree that the Northeast was never good farm land. The most productive (agriculturally) counties east of California are still in Pennsylvania, New Jersey truly was “the garden state,” and parts of Maryland and Delaware have ideal soil conditions. Conestoga and Chester loams are as good and deep as anything in the midwestern states, combined with a better climate. Eastern farmland is potentially MORE productive than western, but not as useful (in many places useless) for industrial-scale, mega farming.
As for “anti-intellectualism,” I find anti-Christianity to be most anti-intellectual. Never mind what those church member experiences of your youth were like (I can easily imagine). It has been hypothesised that a certain percentage of humans are genetically “hard wired” for religious belief (or belief in an unseen companion or higher power) and that this belief is a primitive survival mechanism — and that therefore nothing anyone can say or do will change that natural tendency. Of course I disagree with that hypothesis also.
I’ve tried nearly everything including potato towering. It is common sense never to bury more than a few lower leaves on the “shaws” or stems, whether hilling with soil, or boxing in with added soil, or deep-strawing with spoiled hay. But the higher you build the “hill” or tower, the more inches of rain will be needed on that spot, or expensive irrigation becomes necessary.
Nearly ANYTHING can seem to work on a small enough scale. It is POSSIBLE to grow enough food to feed one person for a year on one thousand square feet, even without hydroponics or special equipment. What appears to be productive on a “backyard” scale though often proves inefficient on a traditional (small acreage) field scale and impossible on the thousand-acre mega-farm scale.
Did you get the stems going out to the sides in huge vines in your potato towers, like in the picture I linked?
The picture you linked didn’t look extremely bushy, but only like any healthy plant in the conventional hill row system. I noticed a lot of chickweed in the picture, which must have been taken in June before the chickweed burns out. In the conventional system, soil is banked against the row centers at least three times about ten days to two weeks apart. With wider row spacing higher hilling is possible, making larger plants and more yield per plant but total yield per acre is highest with narrower rows, closer spacing and less hilling. Read “Gardening for Profit” by Peter Henderson — much better than Masanobu Fukuoka, Eliot Coleman, the Rodales, etc.
Really? How about no hilling? My mother in law does red potatoes with no hilling and gets decent yields.
Of course, and that is what happens when we miss a hilling in rainy weather or equipment breakdown, and can’t get through again afterwards. But there will be a lot of suntan (green) potatoes at harvest. City and suburban people look down on potatoes now, unless they have perfect skin and shape and exotic names, but country folk still buy fifty pound bags year round every year.
So do you recommend no hilling? I hilled last year and had very big plants, but rather poor yields compared to prior years. I also used bone meal fertilizers when I hilled.
I once grew potatoes in a dryer drum and got pretty decent yields, and ya know, perfectly shaped, perfectly formed potatoes. Something about container growing potatoes makes them come out perfect, like softballs and baseballs.
I’m going to try the Henley Potato Tower thing. It sure looks great at the site where they show someone growing 50 pounds of potatoes in 4 square feet. No need to bash it so hard, let me try and fail or succeed, and if I fail, we can both laugh at it. And if I succeed, maybe you consider revisiting this particular technique.
I didn’t mean to sound bashing. You should be successful with it this year, assuming no other factors are limiting. As always, best wishes. I won’t be online very often from now through the rest of the season.
When they are hungry some day they will eat potatoes again.
I look forward to the limo liberals being less spoiled, believe me.
MW I think I was a lot like you as a kid. I remember going to the fair and seeing a bunch of cripples being pushed around in wheelchairs when I was about 5. I asked my mom why they were like that, unable to talk, being tube fed, retarded, and she told me ” they were born that way”. I then asked ” why didnt they knock them in the head” ( like we did to the sick animals born on the ranch). She said ” because they are humans”…..but that didnt make any sense to me at the time and still doesn’t. I dont advocate knocking them in the head, but I think euthanizing really deformed babies or those with very low IQs or missing a brain or limbs is reasonable.
That’s a very funny story, April! Why don’t they knock them in the head! Indeed!
