Larry Arnn, the president of Hillsdale College recently used the phrase "dark ones" to refer to his institution's minority enrollment.

“The state of Michigan sent a group of people down to my campus, with clipboards … to look at the colors of people’s faces and write down what they saw,” Arnn explained. “We don’t keep records of that information. What were they looking for besides dark ones?”




Hillsdale is home to a very nice bronze of former UK Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, BFF of Ronald Reagan and conservatives everywhere, including Arnn. People the world over feel her politics reverberate today, unfortunately.

The great DUer Junkdrawer reminded me that it wasn't just Thatcher and the modern conservatives who use nefarious tactics to rule over the Untermenschen. In fact, it goes back quite a ways, to the time when one group feels itself superior to another. News today about events from almost 75 years ago show that these oligarchs and racialists did big business with evil, and that the UK helped Hitler sell a billion in gold after the invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1939,


Thankfully, not all Caucasians with power are evil. Untold thousands if not millions volunteered to defend the union and defeat the slavemasters in the Civil War, as did thousands more to fight the fascists in Spain and millions in World War II to defeat the NAZIs.

What's maddening is that the NAZIs and their ideology are still around. The reason for that can be found in the heart of America's national security state.
