Which part? The part about JBP's true beliefs, or the part about how he thinks he can de-escalate?
-
The former
-
He tries to avoid talking about race at all costs. He occasionally slips up on the gender question - e.g. 'maybe women shouldn't wear makeup in the workplace' He's clearly aware of the race/IQ correlations.
-
I can't prove this but he studiously avoids thinking about the lower class which can't take much of his advice due to cognitive poverty.

"I can't do it. I can't do it," was a rather loaded response when asked about 100 Years Together

I missed that one. Do you have a link?

That was early this year when he was being pilloried by the press for being an alt-right Nazi demon and had yet to speak one way or the other about jq

To be fair to JBP, it's easy to confuse rejecting the JQ with rejecting the kind of person who obsesses with with JQ.
-
True, and he would be of little use to the people who could most benefit from him if he frightened them off with jq. Still, to feign ignorance of that book in such a way is a strange approach.

He is a liberal in the broad sense of the word. He himself admits avoiding talking about IQ and race, and he obviously understands these things, but I think he is genuinely against the racialist right or ethnonationalism, or whatever you want to call it.

If you want a democracy you need an ethnostate. It's not really optional. Nationalism is a stupid scam, though. Marx was right about one thing: classes exist and their interests conflict.
-
I do not think he agrees with you. Also, it is just fact that there are democracies in multiracial and multiethnic countries. Their quality is another matter. In relation to nationalism and class, yes, there are classes and there are nations, and people can be part of different

groups with different interests. I do not think nationalists claim that classes do exist though. They just prioritize the nation, which can be done. Nationalism is certainly of the interest of the lower classes in Europe.

It is not a fact there are democracies in multiracial countries. There are democracy simulations.

How so?

Elections are theatre. 99.9...% of power is held by unelected bureaucrats. Actual democracy would be even worse than what you see.

I do not agree. It is certainly true that democracy does not mean that every individual has an equal power over the country, this is not true in any country, but democracy is the peaceful exchange of power between elites who use their positions to reward their constituencies in
