Sailer in TAKIMAG: The Ultimate Minority Right — To Become A Majority

By Steve Sailer

Here’s the beginning of my new Taki’s Magazine column:

The Ultimate Minority Right

In recent weeks, I kept meaning to write up a super-stylized history of the evolution of political ideology over recent centuries. But my examples — why Andrew Jackson rather than Alexander Hamilton will get booted off the currency, how Spike Lee learned painfully to start denouncing Hollywood for being run by whites and stop denouncing it for being run by Jews, and why democracy in Poland is undemocratic — grew into entire columns.

So now it’s time to get past the illustrations to the big picture. Here’s a simple outline of four eras, each when a different political ideology seemed inarguable:

(1) hereditary right

(2) majority rule

(3) minority right

(4) the inalienable right of minorities to become the majority (while maintaining all the privileges of a modern minority)
