Metawriting

The great AI tsunami of destruction is rolling up the shores of the “knowledge economy”, wiping out hundreds of millions of white-collar jobs. All kinds of analysts, programmers, researchers, accountants and sales reps are about to become unemployable. So are writers.

Ted Kaczynski wrote at length about the process of technology disrupting society. One of the arguments he made in Industrial Society And Its Future is that technology forces humans to adapt to it, rather than the other way around. Cellphones are an example: once a useful tool to stay connected while on the road, they are now virtually necessary to partake in employment.

AI technology is going to likewise force people to adapt to it – by making them obsolete. Tremendous numbers of white-collar jobs are about to simply disappear, replaced by app output. Most copywriters are going to be obliterated, but certain other writers won’t. These will be the people skilled at metawriting.

Photography made most of painting and drawing obsolete. There was no longer a need to pay someone to paint a portrait over several weeks, when a photo could be taken of them instantly. But the advent of photography led to something previously rare: low-quality art. The price of entry was now so low that unskilled people could produce art at almost no cost to themselves.

Now, choice became a thing. This is why some people don’t get the art of photography: they can’t understand the meta, the choice of what to photograph. Many subjects are not interesting or beautiful, and therefore not worthy of depiction. Other subjects can be made more interesting or beautiful by choosing the right framing, or the right contrasts.

By the same token, AI has made elements of writing obsolete. When I was at school, being able to spell was a big deal. It distinguished the bright from the dull. Now, no-one cares about spelling, sentence composition or paragraph composition. AI can do all of that. But now, choice of prompt has become important.

The 21st Century art form known as metawriting is the art of making the subject more interesting, or more beautiful, by choosing the right framing, the right contrasts, or by some other way. This metawriting will remain an art, no matter how advanced AI gets, because AI can’t be programmed to have taste.

It’s possible already now to churn out thousands of books that no-one will have any interest in reading because, despite being technically well-written, the metawriting is poor. The prompter might not understand the subject well enough to cover the main issues. They might devote too much space to irrelevancies. Metawriting can be cliched, too, if the piece covers already well-trodden intellectual paths.

In the future, the art of writing will go through a change akin to the change from painting to photography. The best writers will still need to possess an artistic talent akin to the best photographers. No longer will an author be able to “phone it in” by thoughtlessly writing about boring subjects in neat prose. Anyone can write neat prose with AI now, and they will focus on all manner of subjects. The writers of the future will have to accept this reality.

The writers of the future will still need to be readers, in order to know what to write about. They will still have to be deeply cultural and informed so as to understand the historical and social context in which they are writing. They will still be forced to understand the psychology of their readers in order to appeal to them. They will still need to understand their competition, what that competition are writing about, and what are fashionable and unfashionable subjects to write about. They will still have to account for political correctness and what the power structure wants people to write about and to ignore.

It may be that people become more skilled metawriters even as they become less skilled writers.

The Alt Centrist Approach To Immigration

In a state of Nature, immigration is inherently a violent process. No organism in a comfortable niche will give that niche up to intruders without a fight. In ancient human societies, immigration was similar. Ancient history is replete with examples of one group trying to enter the territory of another with bloodshed resulting.

In modern human societies, however, immigration is a much smoother process. Thanks to modern transportation and neoliberalism, it has never been easier for a person to move across the world for work, for asylum or even just to go on the dole. Immigration is now so common that it has become normalised.

Despite this, immigration remains controversial. In fact, it’s possibly the most controversial political issue as we approach the end of the Trump Era.

The reason why immigration is so common today is that the Left and the Establishment Centre have come together in a globalist alliance against the other positions. The Left wants freedom for labour to move: the Establishment Left on the belief that the greater the choice labour has, the greater the leverage, and therefore the higher the wage; the Alternative Left because Marx has prophecised that the working class will unite across national borders. The Establishment Centre, representing capitalism, also wants freedom for labour to move, the logic being that the greater the supply of labour, the cheaper it is.

This means the Establishment Left and the Establishment Centre both support immigration, but for totally different reasons. Further complicating matters is that elements of the Right also support immigration because of religion (in particular the universalism promoted by Christian Bible passages like Galatians 3:28, Acts 17:26 or Isaiah 60:12).

As has been covered extensively in other works (viz. Clown World Chronicles), the current rulers of the world are the winners of the previous great war, i.e. capitalists and communists. These two forces have joined together on the basis of their common globalist interests – an alliance known as globohomo. As such, the world has been pushed in a globalist direction for almost a century now. This has meant mass immigration, hence why mass immigration is so normalised today.

Freedom and peace seemed to work together on the immigration issue for a long time. GDP does seem to have gone up a great deal since 1945. Which leads to the inevitable question: what’s the problem?

The lazy globalist assumption is that all races are the same IQ, therefore human beings are fungible units. Immigration has no impact other than boosting the size of the economy, which makes everyone richer. Only a stupid bigot would object to this free money.

In actuality, not every person is a net positive contributor to the finances of their host countries.

The first truth is that any person or group’s net contribution to their host society is highly correlated with that person or group’s IQ. Low-IQ people are far more likely to commit crimes and to use welfare. They are much less likely to complete a professional education and to work an important job. They are far, far less likely to produce an innovation that will improve the lives of many. They are far more likely to destroy their bodies early and require expensive medical care.

The second truth is that the various races differ on their natural IQs, from IQs of 65 (Australian Aborigines) to 105 (North-East Asians). This makes things far more complicated than they otherwise would have been.

For instance, Dutch and Danish studies have found that immigrants from low-IQ countries have a massively negative impact on the finances of their hosts. As it turns out, 85 IQ browns are at least as shitty to live around as 85 IQ whites. They have the same lack of consideration, lack of forethought, lack of insight, the same aggression, resentment, obnoxiousness.

The major difference is that, being of a different race, they have even less solidarity with normal people than working-class whites do. Thus they have weaker inhibitions against murdering, raping, robbing the locals.

When this is pointed out, the globalist apologist will counter that children from lower-IQ races can simply be educated to have high IQ.

In actuality, they can’t. The heritability of intelligence is between 0.5 and 0.8, which tells us there’s only so much education can do. The high heritability of intelligence is the reason for the discovery, in the Dutch and Danish studies linked above, that second-generation immigrants are about as financially net negative as the first generation.

The negative impacts of low-IQ immigration are not distributed evenly. Because the cheap labour is usually dumped in cheap housing, it’s the local working classes who suffer the most from their presence. The rich people who control immigration policy, insulated in their expensive neighbourhoods, don’t need to worry.

Neither are the positive impacts of immigration distributed evenly. The rich get a wider choice of tenants to bid the rents on their investment properties up. They also get a wider choice of employees to bid the wages they pay down. The rich win it all.

True justice must consider justice to the locals as well as the immigrants, and to the poor as well as the rich.

The alternative centrist approach to immigration involves a complete and total stop to all immigration from low-IQ countries. Letting low-IQ people immigrate destroys everyone’s order and peace as they commit murders, rapes and robberies, and then destroys everyone’s freedom as the government cracks down on crime. It’s a great deal of destruction for very little benefit.

In fact, the alternative centrist approach demands restitution for the crime of allowing mass immigration in the first place. It is exceptionally disorderly and unjust to open borders to hordes of cheap labour and then to dump the consequences of it onto one’s grandchildren. In fact, it’s despicable. It could fairly be considered treason, and fair justice would be for those responsible to meet traitor’s fates.

Freedom can apply to those who appreciate it, i.e. people from high-IQ countries who don’t commit crimes. Even in the case of people from high-IQ countries, order must take priority to their freedom to immigrate. Thus, citizenship would not be handed out easily, unless an immigrant had married in to the nation, and had children with heritage from that nation.

In summary, the alternative centrist approach to immigration is much more selective than the globohomo approach. The emphasis is on freedom for high-quality people, and order for low-quality ones.

This chapter is from The Alternative Centrist Manifesto, the upcoming masterwork of political philosophy that offers the answers to the political problems of the West.

How White People Could Get Kicked Out Of Aus/NZ Like They’re Getting Kicked Out Of Southern Africa

It’s not easy to believe that white people might get kicked out of Australia and New Zealand. White people have been in charge of this part of the world for 250 years now, and only the Imperial Japanese have ever looked like breaking that dominance. If anyone suggests that white people could get kicked out of Australia and New Zealand, Rhodesia-style, the usual response is “It couldn’t happen here.” But everyone says this just before disaster strikes.

White people could start getting kicked out of Australia and New Zealand in about 25/30 years, and a simple analysis shows it.

It is unarguably true that many of the peoples of the world consider the presence of whites in Australia and New Zealand illegitimate. Decolonisation movements have expelled white people in many places. Beginning in Haiti, white people have been pushed out of Kenya, Algeria and Rhodesia and are now getting pushed out of South Africa. There is a fanatical decolonisation movement here in New Zealand, as evidenced by the image below, from a Police report on Uruwera terrorist Rangi Kemara.

Well-travelled Kiwis will be aware that Chinese, Indian and African peoples are not fond of colonialism. The 4.5 billion people in this group generally feel that colonialism is one of the worst crimes ever committed in human history. Arabs feel similarly, despite being colonialists themselves. The five billion people in these categories generally feel that white people have stolen Australia and New Zealand and have no moral right to their possession. These people feel, at least, that power should be stripped from white people, if not that white people should be expelled.

It’s possible that a majority of the world’s population considers white presence in Australia and New Zealand illegitimate. The question then becomes: can the will of the global majority be thwarted indefinitely?

In theory, all it would take for the global majority to get into a position to expel whites from Australia and New Zealand would be continued immigration from non-white countries. This would eventually lead to white people becoming a minority, at which point they could be kicked out democratically, as they were in Rhodesia and as they are being in South Africa.

This might sound unlikely right now, but it sounded extremely unlikely in Rhodesia and South Africa once too. Power is fickle.

According to the 2023 Census, 67.8% of New Zealand is white. This is roughly 3.4 million out of five million people. New Zealand is currently taking in 100,000 or so non-white immigrants per year. The ruling class appears to believe, with good reason, that Kiwis won’t fight back against this immigration no matter how high it is. So they might even open up the immigration floodgates further.

If New Zealand took in 120,000 non-white immigrants a year, and only 30,000 white ones, the total population would be close to eight million within 20 years (i.e. by 2046), with about four million whites and four million others. Under this scenario, whites would already be a minority within 20 years.

From there, it’s just a matter of exactly what “kicked out” means. It’s not necessary for whites to be forcibly deported. A non-white majority will be able to vote the white minority into an ever-worsening state of subjugation until white people start leaving on their own free will. This can be done fully legally and cannot be stopped without overthrowing the democratic system.

For example, the non-white global majority, upon becoming the majority in New Zealand, could simply vote themselves more government largesse at the expense of whites. They could vote themselves more diversity, inclusion and equity initiatives such as non-white scholarships, preferential housing for non-whites, increased welfare access for non-whites, increased healthcare for non-whites, mandated non-white quotas on boardrooms etc. They could vote, as in South Africa, for economic empowerment initiatives that forced whites to hire non-whites and appoint them as owners and leaders. They could influence the Police, as in Britain, to focus on crimes with white perpetrators and non-white victims, and ignore crimes with non-white perpetrators and white victims.

After becoming the demographic majority, non-whites could just keep ratcheting up the pressure in this manner until whites were slowly destroyed.

It might be countered here that whites could flee the cities and return to countryside villages. But even this would not be enough. As the examples of France and England prove, the ruling class will force non-whites into the remotest village. Whites in Australia and New Zealand will not be able to escape by going innawoods.

Eventually the white population will tire of the burden and seek better opportunities in other countries, as the Southern Africans did. As whites continue to get pushed out of the more recent colonies, they will withdraw to North America and then to Europe, if there is anything left of either place by then. Thus, it won’t be necessary to pass a law deporting white people or anything similar. South Africa proved that non-whites can simply take power through demographics, pass laws favouring themselves, and then the whites will just leave.

In fact, white people have already been kicked out of parts of Australia and New Zealand. South Auckland, in the 1950s, was a thriving working-class white community. Lakemba in Sydney is another example, but there are dozens. Then mass immigration started, and the whites were slowly driven out by crime and obnoxious, hostile behaviour. If this exact process was replicated nationwide, the ethnic cleansing of whites could be easily accomplished over the next few decades.

I concede that this analysis lazily dumps Maori people into the non-white team. In actuality, the vast majority of Maori people would take the side of white Kiwis over random brown or black foreigners. But the proportion that wouldn’t is ever-increasing, thanks to Communist and anti-white propaganda. And in any case, that could only delay things. As long as mass immigration exists, a Third World alliance will eventually come to power that could simply dispossess both white Kiwis and Maoris alike. The laws of democracy, in fact, make this outcome unavoidable.

In any case, nothing about the Maori factor changes the basic analysis. Democracy plus mass immigration will mean that white people eventually lose Australia and New Zealand the same way they lost Rhodesia and South Africa. It’s simply the will of the global majority. The faster the immigration, the sooner this happens.
