Learning from Donald Trump

1,676 words

Having a Mencken-like disdain for America’s ruling class, I would like to put forward what I have entitled Quintilian’s Postulate 1: conservatives are stupid and lack courage; liberals are stupid and lack self-awareness. Donald Trump is a unique politician, I believe, because he possesses both courage and self-awareness.

The Long Night of the Kali Yuga

2,103 words

“I don’t want any more stories,” Bran snapped, his voice petulant. He had liked Old Nan and her stories once … They left her with him all day now, to watch over him and clean him and keep him from being lonely, but she just made it worse. “I hate your stupid stories.”

On Vetting & Entry into a White Ethnostate, Part II

4,453 words

Part 1 of 3. For Part 1 of this series, click here.

The Naturalization Act of 1790 was the American Founding Fathers’ first attempt at establishing a legal path towards citizenship for non-citizens. It stated that immigration to the United States, fledgling nation that it was, should be limited to “whites of good character.” Here is the breakdown according to Infogalactic:

Why White Nationalists Shouldn’t be Discouraged by the Charlottesville Attack

866 words

James Alex Fields, Jr.

A 20 year old named James Alex Fields, Jr. rammed his Dodge Challenger into a group of people during the Charlottesville March this past Saturday, August 12, 2017, killing one. The interesting thing is that if he had been a Muslim doing it for the sake of jihad, the media and academia would in response be promoting a narrative that we should not allow this attack to be used to malign Muslims across the nation because most Muslims, according to them, are law-abiding people of good will.

The Sieges of Charlottesville & Calais

1,313 words

On the same day that the combined forces of the Left were doing violence to the rights of free speech and assembly of the Unite the Right marchers in Charlottesville, VA, their cultural Marxist brethren were at the Glimmerglass Festival in Cooperstown, NY doing aesthetic violence to the American premiere of Gaetano Donizetti’s opera The Siege of Calais (1836).

The Altamont of the Alt Right?

1,640 words

“Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.”–John F. Kennedy

On December 6, 1969, the Altamont Speedway Free Festival was held in Northern California, featuring Santana, The Jefferson Airplane, Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young, and The Rolling Stones. It was supposed to be a West Coast version of Woodstock, which had been held four months before in upstate New York. But Altamont descended into violence and mayhem, with one murder and three accidental deaths, plus countless brawls and petty crimes. Read more …

Princess Mononoke

888 words

I feel like the skinhead who went to see Cats because he’d heard that T. S. Eliot was a fascist.

Japanese cartoons are very popular in our circles. They have even been reviewed at Counter-Currents. The closest thing I had seen to a Japanese cartoon is Twilight of the Cockroaches. But that mixed animation and live action, and it was more than 25 years ago, so I remember almost nothing about it. Read more …

Diversity & Inclusion, the White Nationalist Way

1,123 words

“Diversity” is normally bemoaned and rightfully criticized in White Nationalist circles, but I have yet to see the policy referred to by its full name of Diversity and Inclusion. This voodoo magic phrase is a sacrament of corporate and government bureaucrats, and is a used to banish the lurking demons of Racism, Homophobia, Transphobia, and so on. Its use is a neat illustration of the circular logic that incarcerates the Overman and keeps the white collar Tyler Durdens of the world in check (the movie character, not the Kremlin asset at Zerohedge). Human resources catladies, Catberts, Pointy Haired Bosses, Shylocks, Hipsters, and Jewish fashion magazine publishers, amongst other shock troops of the Kulturkampf, clamor for legislative protection of Diversity and Inclusion.

Ruby Ridge, 25 Years On

Randy Weaver

2,328 words

August 22nd will be the 25th anniversary of what is popularly called “Ruby Ridge.” Most readers my age or older will remember Ruby Ridge well, but it is possible there are some younger individuals reading this without that same cognizance of the events.

The name refers to a mountaintop in Northern Idaho where — in 1992 — a man named Randy Weaver and his family ended up in a prolonged, armed standoff with the federal government that ended in the death of his wife and 14-year-old son.  Read more …

A Perspective as Wide as the World

2,545 words

Here’s an analogy which neatly sums up the difference between Alt-Right or race-realist thinking and more mainstream conservatives. Imagine a vast pointillist painting, such as Georges Seurat’s famous A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, but a thousand times the size. Imagine also that this painting depicts scenes which present humanity as it really is and furthermore acts as a warning against the Progressive Left. Read more …

To Marcus Aurelius

Good night, Marcus. Blow out the light

Heaven speaks to us in tongues,

your Latin cannot understand.
Eternal terror, dark and bleak,
reigns over our frail mortal land. Read more …

It is important for White Nationalists to visualize what victory would look like. There are really two answers to this question. The ultimate answer is our vision of Whitopia, the society we want to create. But before we build Whitopia, we need to achieve a victory over the present political system. Read more …

Should the Protestant Ethic Become the Spirit of the Alt Right?

Max Weber

2,008 words

Whites will become a minority within a few decades in all their main homelands. The question is no longer how to prevent becoming a minority but how to survive in order to regain majority status.

A few months ago I noted that easy going comfort is the main factor behind the decline of masculinity in the West and that only an atmosphere of conflict and hardship in childhood will strengthen Westerners to fight against the occupation of their lands. Read more …

Will Europe belong to Europeans?

Viktor Orbán

6,808 words

Viktor Orbán’s speech at the 28th Bálványos Summer Open University and Student Camp, July 22, 2017, Tusnádfürdő (Băile Tuşnad, Romania)

First of all, I’d like to remind everyone that we started a process of collective thinking 27 years ago in Bálványosfürdő, a few kilometres from here. That is where we came to a realisation. Just think back: at that time, at the beginning of the nineties, most people – not only in Hungary, but also across the whole of Central Europe – thought that full assimilation into the Western world was just opening up to us again.

Christopher Nolan’s Dunkirk

628 words

Dunkirk is Christopher Nolan’s most emotionally powerful movie. It deals with the evacuation of 400,000 British, Canadian, and French troops trapped on the beach at Dunkirk after being defeated by the Germans in the Second World War.

Dunkirk is a strange work, especially for Christopher Nolan, who typically directs long films with complex plots, extensive character development, and lots of dialogue. Dunkirk, however, is only 106 minutes long. There is no single storyline. Read more …
