EMJ has had twisted views on race for a long time. Even more bizarrely, he seems to accept ethnicity as real while peddling the notion of race as a 'category of the mind' or social construct.

Yet 'Whiteness' and 'blackness' are clearly ascriptive identities. Any complications can be resolved through genetic tests. It doesn't matter whether you identify as 'White' or 'black'. EMJ, like many Whites, probably doesn't identify as 'White', but other people will identify him as White nevertheless. Even if he wore a shirt that read: 'I do not identify as White', it would make no difference. If he was to commit a crime wearing said shirt, only a fool would believe that the media wouldn't report that a White man committed a crime.

Whereas 'Jew' and, in particular, Jones' own 'Catholic' are identities that practically anyone can take up. Both have members of all races. Of course, yids are much more restrictive on who they let in. Nevertheless, if rabbis were willing to accept a Martian, even a little green Martian man could become a 'Jew'.

Funnily, there are plenty of Filipinos and Hispanics more Catholic than EMJ, who is foul-mouthed and deeply heterodox, for instance, in his taking Hegel and the Socratics seriously when many of their views contradict Christianity. Aristotle, for instance, believed that the cosmos was eternal and thus was never created, having, in a sense, skipped creation, which blatantly contradicts Genesis.

This is a man who believes that Africa is only backwards relative to the Whites because it is not Catholic enough. That Africa would easily surpass the Whites if it became ardently Catholic. If Africa became ardently Catholic, he would simply say that they still aren't ardent enough and that they would eventually surpass the Whites if they simply became more ardent still.

This is a man who believes that the only problem with yids is their religion. If they convert, they thus suddenly cease being a problem. So they should be forcibly converted. You are not allowed to say that the problem is essential (e.g. biological or metaphysical), because, if it is, conversion is no solution and eradication remains the only one that is irreversible. After all, we can't change their genes or their souls, we can only change their religion or eradicate their genes and souls from this plane of existence. But EMJ won't entertain eradication because... you guessed it, Catholicism.

He spouts all kinds of other things that are similarly contrary to reason and science, but his narratives on groids and yids are the two that I can most easily recall.

It is religion that is the social construct or 'category of the mind'.
I am Catholic if I *believe*, belief being a mental operation, in Catholicism. By contrast, it doesn't matter what I or anyone else believes regarding 'Whiteness' or 'blackness'. It would still be the case that I have a race even if no man believed that I did: an objective, omnisicient observer such as God would still say that I am part of a race even if every man believed otherwise.

Even a fully mixed world would be one of races, with everyone sitting on a spectrum somewhere between them. If we mix red and yellow, we get orange, but it would be blatantly false to say that red and yellow do not exist because there is orange, even if no red or yellow exists at that point in time nor ever again after that time. For if we could unmix all that is orange, red and yellow would indubitably exist again at that point in time: orange proves rather than disproves the existence of red and yellow; the mixtures prove rather than disprove the existence of the pures.

I've heard his "category of the mind" assertion and I thought it was amazing how backwards he got it. Catholicism, or any other religion, is a "category of the mind". Race is a fact of biology that has nothing to do with belief. EMJ is a screwball on many levels.
