In October 2024,Beattie tweeted,"Competent white men must be in charge if you want things to work. Unfortunately,our entire national ideology is predicated on coddling the feelings of women and minorities,and demoralizing competent white men." [19] Beattie's views have been described as white nationalist. [20]
Foreign affairs
Beattie has strongly criticized U.S. foreign policy on Twitter and in longer-form writings. In a widely circulated 2020 essay on Revolver News,he compared U.S. involvement in post-Soviet Color revolutions to "the coordinated efforts of government bureaucrats,NGOs,and the media to oust President Trump". [21]
Also in 2020,he tweeted:"NATO is a greater threat to American liberty than the Chinese Communist Party. Sounds crazy I know,but I'd be willing to debate anyone serious on this topic publicly." [22] In 2021,he wrote that "a big part of American ruling class' [sic] hatred of Russia is that Russia is a major power that rejects the woke ideology at the core of American regime" and "Now that Xi's China is rejecting America's woke poison in key respects,interesting to see how this plays into cold war 2.0." [22] Beattie also frequently praised the judicial system of the People's Republic of China for being repressive,and said the U.S. and other Western countries should become more repressive to combat crime. [15]
Of the Chinese government's policies toward Uyghurs,Beattie wrote:"The Chinese aren't genocidal. They just object to Uyghur supremacy and uyghurness. If Uyghurs simply reject uyghur supremacy,they'll have no problem functioning in Chinese society." In 2021,he wrote,"Uighurs don't like anti-Uighur racism,it must be because they are Uighur nationalists who think all of China is for Uighurs ONLY." [23] In May 2024,he wrote,"Taiwan will inevitably belong to China,it's only a matter of time. It's not worth expending any capital to prevent",adding that a "visionary statesman will recognize this and make a deal- in exchange for acknowledgment of this basic reality,get some serious concessions on Africa and Antartica [sic]". [22] In July 2024,Beattie wrote it "might mean fewer drag queen parades in Taiwan,but otherwise not the end of the world" if China took over Taiwan. [16] [24]
In August 2024,he wrote the "ruling regime" of the United Kingdom,referring to the Labour Party that took power in the 2024 general election,"is far less legitimate than Saddam was in Iraq prior to the US invasion—and,for that matter,far less legitimate than Maduro's regime in Venezuela". [16] He also wrote that month that "Britain treats its own native white people far worse than China treats its muslim Uighur population" [23] and that "America treats rural whites far worse than China treats Uighurs." [22] Beattie suggested that the UK would better off under Chinese rule,and later wrote "the UK is infinitely more repulsive than China". [15]
