Matt Goodwin is now seemingly comfortable with sensibly defining Englishness in terms of ethnicity/ancestry. Just 10 months ago, he was forced to pretend that Ash Sarkar was English, a stance that undermined his subsequent arguments. This signals a shift in the Overton Window.

The gate he keeps is being dragged inward, screeching across the ground, still locked but unable to stay in place

That Sarkar has tweeted "I'm not fucking English" and "I'm Bengali."

They often pretend to shift right in order to remain in positions of influence and control.

Ash Sarkar is British in the sense that a label on tin might say beans, hence it is a tin of beans, even if the tin contains carrots etc.

Marvic1 year ago

The shift is entirely due to online pressure. Without it, the discourse would've remain tied to the mire of "British values" and other hollow instruments of soft resistance.

If Ash and I moved to China and had a baby, do we have a Chinese baby?

.Matt Goodwin speaks to Michael Gove on the ethnicity debate. “My view is Englishness is an ethnicity that is deeply rooted in a people that can trace their roots back over generations. It is a very distinctive identity and a different identity from Britishness...” “... Our history, the legacy of our collective identity, the legacy of our culture, goes much further back and is deeper than simply signing some papers.” “Rishi Sunak could choose to identity as English if he views himself that way. But it is also true that there’s an English ethnicity, there is an English group, that goes back over generations, [and] that Rishi Sunak would probably himself say, ‘I do not have as strong a linkage to that group as other people do’.”

Professor Matt Goodwin argues there's a crucial distinction between British and English identity, claiming Englishness is an ethnicity rooted in heritage rather than just citizenship. Using Rishi Sunak as an example, he suggests someone can become British but cannot truly become English without deep ancestral connections. Click through to watch the full video in which Matt discusses demographic projections, examines integration challenges, critiques current immigration policy, and explains why he believes Britain needs a 'factory reset' to address these civilisational challenges.

📺✝️🇺🇸 MATT WALSH: HYPOCRITE? Quoted below, Matt Walsh disses "the Left" & glazes Sarah Stock for defining America as [European + Christian] to Sam Seder. But I remember when Matt forcefully insisted to an American veteran that this was a bigoted & un-American position. In fact, Matt's stated position is that America's unifying principle was NEVER race, ethnicity or religion--like other countries. Rather, he said it was always just our "belief in a doctrine of human rights." Watch:

Reminder: Nick Fuentes was never truly an AntiZionist, and he was never pro-Palestine: this clip from 2022 is his most honest take on the matter: he believes that the Palestinians are scum, their cause is anti-White (it isn’t), and he doesn’t even consider them a real people. He considers them a domestic issue for Israel, which he believes to be more legitimate, his only gripe is that Israel actually isn’t a proper colony of America. A few months ago Nick was morally condemning Charlie Kirk, asking him to imagine if it was his children in the Gaza Strip. He was openly making moral pleas and arguments against the genocidal slaughter happening. Now they’re just mudslimes. A few months ago, he was making Catholic cases against Israel and its brutality, now the Palestinians are just brown clowns.

This supermarket manager was walking back inside the store when he noticed that a customers car was on fire. He immediately ran inside and grabbed a fire extinguisher. He proceeded to smash the window of the car to put out the fire. Just as he was doing this, the owner came out and was freaking out to see that, only to remember that she had a lit scented candle in the car to help with unwanted smells. Was he justified to break her window to do this, shouldn’t he have just waited for the fire department, because now is it possible he’s liable for her damages that he caused?

I didn’t record a ton on day one because I was just trying to take it all in. I captured this moment on day two. Hobi must be very happy with army. It must be wild to him that he was sleeping in a barrack five months ago and now this is his life.

Last week Matt Goodwin was odds on to win the Gorton and Denton by-election. He is now 4/1. Who would have thought that driving around in a massive blue bus with a bunch of of Indians in matching turbans wasn’t the best way to mobilise White working class voters?

Was George Orwell an "ethnonationalist"? Or did he just recognise the fact that being English is a product of heritage? George Orwell was born in India. Was he Indian? No. Because he had British ancestry. This wasn't controversial until a few years ago. Labels are being thrown around to stigmatise plain and obvious facts. Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood claimed at Labour Party Conference last year: "Mine is the patriotism of Orwell... But patriotism is turning into something smaller. Something more like ethno-nationalism, which struggles to accept that someone who looks like me, and has a faith like mine, can truly be English or British." But Shabana Mahmood is not English. And in terms of culture and politics, Mahmood is much closer to 1984's Big Brother than she is to George Orwell.

One of the most thrilling moments in this film, Through a Boy's Eyes, was that Pedro had to pretend to his friends that he disliked gay 🌈people, just like they did, whenever he was around the group of his fellow gay men, so they wouldn't mock him if they found out he was gay.

Keir Starmer used today's speech, in the midst of the Peter Mandelson and Epstein scandal, to whine about Matt Goodwin and the online right. "As long as I have breath in my body," Starmer says he will fight against the fact that being British is a product of ancestry and ethnicity. "That is an affront to British values as I see it." Starmer is determined to deny that the English, Scottish, Welsh, and Irish exist as distinct ethnic groups. All while weaponising imported ethnic and religious "communities" against them. Obsessive, ethnocidal rhetoric. It's clear the posting is getting to him.
