Do you have a dumb question that you're kind of embarrassed to ask in the main thread? Is there something you're just not sure about?
This is your opportunity to ask questions. No question too simple or too silly.

Notes -
I'm not opposed to sharing extremist left or right news sources as talking points, but Counter Currents is very lowbrow even compared to say Unz/AmRen/most of dissident right twitter. I think a few years ago it was slightly more erudite, but it's kind of degenerated into hysterical /pol/posting and neo-nazi bait that - like this article - cherry picks stats badly from official sources without understanding them (see @Gdanning's comment below) to make a very much exaggerated point.
In general, the far right misses the forest for the trees in the Rotherham affair. This essentially occurred in the rust belt of England, the victims were underclass girls, largely children of single mothers, many of them were in care because their mothers were addicts or otherwise couldn't look after them, high levels of multigenerational poverty, zero opportunity, zero faith or traditional values, essentially some of the most hollowed-out, atomized, empty, unproductive, valueless and dysfunctional communities in the Western world. So yes, it's an indictment of the mass immigration that occurred to these areas, I don't think that's something that can or should be ignored, but these communities' issues go way, way beyond that and most have little to do with Mirpuris moving to the UK.
Yes, I didnt mean to say that those other two were particularly 'highbrow'. In general, once people get into outright virulent racism (in the traditional definition) the quality of their writing drops significantly. I think this is mainly because smarter dissident right figures have actual aspirations to involvement in real-world politics, and even a reactionary government in the US or Western Europe is going to balk at someone with a long history of Turner Diaries-esque posts online. See the Finnish economy minister who just got cancelled for making oblique nazi references, for example.
He’s still in a cabinet position in Finland.
Very technically - he's going to stay as a lame duck for some weeks until the parliament's summer break is over.
