A LARKS’ TONGUE IN APRIL.

conversation with Morrissey,

April 2019, by Sam Esty Rayner.

*we apologize for the delay in printing this interview.

Excerpt:

"sam:
You cancelled 6 shows in Italy because of the incident. People are beginning to think your middle name is Cancellation.

M:
I know. But, as far as I can see, many bands cancel and nothing is ever said about it. The song and dance made about my cancellations is usually from people who wouldn’t go to the concert in the first place.

sam:
But you will play the Canada dates?

M:
Yes.

sam:
Is your hand bad? Obviously it’s covered.

M:
The stitches are out now but if I had shaken anyone’s hand last week blood would have spurted. That’s not a nice greeting.

sam:
I don’t think anyone ever believes that you’re ill, or that you fell, or whatever.

M:
I know. Generally colds and flu are passed on to me, and there’s nothing you can do when your voice is your instrument. I go to abnormal lengths to avoid colds."

It is fascinating isn't it? Over thousands of years of evolution different humans have diverged over that time due to factors such as diet and living conditions to develop distinct differences. Whether it be skin colour, hair colour, bone density, height/weight etc. And in doing so have developed different languages, different diets, different cultural customs. However the only thing that couldn't have possibly changed is a divergence in IQ between ethnicities. Because......................racizm or whateva.

I'll tell you what though, for those arguing that studies such as Charles Murray's are an example of white supremacy, well maybe they might like to think again. The study has Ashkenazi Jews and Asians at the top of the overall curve. Wow, that's two ethnic groups of colour beating the white man into a lowly third place. Yikes! Well as the 'Acceptable Face of Racism' as I have have been accused of being, I better denounce this study pronto and look for a new one that better supports White Supremacy :lbf:

Dark brown skin can never become white even in millions of years and do you actually believe in that?

White people and black people don't have the same genes and the more they find the more we can debunk the origin mother in Africa which is so laughable and stupid it is untrue.

The way they measure intelligence means most such surveys can be questioned and far east people might be good at the abstract but reading the nuclear plant reports from Japan in the 80's gave me an insight that makes me lean toward them being a bit socially incapable in a way that means most things become difficult for them.

They are crap at communication cause that involves talking to other people and if anything they are champions at the sport of becoming a recluse. It is fascinating the studies you talk about cause I read a study recently that claimed the way they tested intelligence did not have much in common with reality.

Things like culture and traditions and unwritten laws and local customs play a huge part and can have a bad impact on the execution of intelligence. It is like kids at school passing tests but did they learn something they can use at a place of work or was it a bit like filling a sausage?

These things are way too complicated to pick one region and say these people are more brainy. What about those that aren't?

White supremacy is the realisation that history shows that white people were the best organised and they had the best end results when building a society where there was order. Intelligence is great but for it to have any use it needs to have an outlet which results in something like a product or service or a new invention.

The far east have been making crap for ages that destroyed the world and polluted it and once those chinese dropped the bike for a car you know what happened but Greta Thunberg is blissfully unaware.

Yeah, but what's 'the talk' supposed to be. Did Billy Bragg (a bit weird it's always him who gets singled out when some fash wheels this argument out, but whatever) pledge at some point that when he became a millionaire he'd carry on living in a bedsit on the outskirts of London? Of course he didn't. He's a millionaire so he lives in a big house by the sea. There's no real mystery about that.
 
For all of the manufactured outrage, we understand what Moz means. The intrinsic preference we all have for those of our tribe, family, cultural group etc.
 
That's it, folks.
Steve Morrissey's career as a recording and live act (in the UK at least) is officially over.
Just when we thought things couldn't get any worse after wearing that f***ing pin, they have. Much worse.
It seems ironic that it was his own flesh and blood that dealt the final blow. The sweet little boy from the Suedehead video.
He can't blame a journalist this time, he can't blame a publication like Der Spiegel or the Guardian.
The interview was carried out by his own relative, and published on his own website.
Unbe-f***ing-lievable.
An album has been completed - it might (might) still come out. But that's it.
It's all a little bit horrible.

Sworn socialists are supposed to hate millionaires. Why didn't he give most of his capital away to help 'refugees'?

Or at least confirm that he is no longer a socialist - and is now somebody who wants nothing to do with the 'diversity' he still recommends for the rest of us.

That would be honesty.

Not sure how imposing your own feelings onto someone else and mocking how they choose to respond to their own personal tragedy counts as empathy.

You obviously don’t understand anything about empathy. Please go to your local library and lend a book about it.

Thank you for playing!

No I agree, just humans being the imperfect creatures they are.

That's fine........but he expects the rest of us to enjoy the benefits of mass immigration while he laps it up in honky rich man's central.

Ashkenazi Jews are an interesting case.

What's funny is that there are people will deny this existence of race, say all the races are equal, claim that the only reason white people are more successful than blacks is because of structural racism and exploiting non-whites and yadda yadda yadda but if you ask them "So how come Jews are only 2% of the population of America but 40% of the billionaires?", they will say "Oh well it's because Jews have those high IQ's, dontcha know?"

It's like people are race realists when it comes to Jews but race deniers when it comes to whites.

Well, there's more to heredity than just intelligence. Most aspects of personality are also hereditary.
A case can be made that while whites may not come out #1 in all the most desirable traits, that whites have the best combination of traits. Jews may have higher raw cognitive processing power but Jews are also neurotic and have other unlovely quirks. Asians may be smarter but they are less creative and more conformist. Whites are the Goldilocks of races: not too hot and not too cold but just right.

Never mind the reference. Look at where Sam stuck that apostrophe!! A Lark is a bird. Tongue belongs to. Therefore Lark’s tongue. Sorry to be judgemental, but I’m generally right about the use of apostrophes being revealing of how well-read or enlightened somebody is.

I agree with you on the correct placement of the apostrophe. I had originally typed it as you suggest but then updated it to match the actual title as written. Grammar can be tricky for a lot of people. You’re fortunate to be so well versed.
