More Aryan than Human:
The Return of Repressed White Wisdom in Rob Zombie’s Firefly Family Films

“Our bodies come and go, but this blood stays forever” — Otis B. Driftwood

I am not a great fan of the horror film, at least in its current, Judaicly inspired “torture porn” incarnation. I did occasionally enjoy exposure to the “horror core” or “psycho-billy” music that started showing up here and there in New York in the early 90s. Read more …

Remembering René Guénon:
November 15, 1886 to January 7, 1951

Greg Johnson

265 words

René Guénon was born on this day in 1886. Along with Julius Evola, Guénon was one of the leading figures in the Traditionalist school, which has deeply influenced my own outlook and the metapolitical mission and editorial agenda of Counter-Currents Publishing and North American New Right.

In commemoration of his birth, I wish to draw your attention to the following works on this website. Read more …

The Adult in the Room

Matt Parrott

Mitt Romney spends most of the time during the Presidential debates standing above the fray (literally, he’s 6’2″) with a plastic, fatherly smile glued to his exceptionally Nordic skull. When he does speak, it’s with a slight edge of impatience, akin to that of a busy father who’s been interrupted by a stupid question. Read more …

Against the Neo-Pagans:
The Misunderstandings of the New “Paganism”

Julius Evola

John William Godward (1861–1922), "A Priestess," 1894

2,469 words

It is perhaps appropriate to point out the misunderstandings that are current at the moment in some radical circles, who believe that a solution lies in the direction of a new paganism. This misunderstanding is already visible in the use of terms such as “pagan” and “pagandom.” I myself, having used these expressions as slogans in a book that was published in Italy in 1928, and in Germany in 1934, have cause for sincere regrets.

Certainly the word for pagan or heathen, paganus, appears in some ancient Latin writers such as Livy without an especially negative tone. Read more …

“The human individual is, at one and the same time, much more and much less than is ordinarily supposed in the West; he is greater by reason of his possibilities of indefinite extension beyond the corporeal modality, . . . but he is also much less since, far from constituting a complete and sufficient being in himself, he is only an exterior manifestation, a fleeting appearance clothing the true being, which in no way affects the essence of the latter in its immutability.” Read more …
