Year 1 is Survivalism By John Steele

     With the massively changes environment, following the corona freak out, then the worldwide race riots, and destruction of all things white, there is a change in thought, with once conservatives, now thinking along survivalist lines. The US is ahead of the curve, having suffered much more damage than other countries, but we have yet to see in Australia what happens when here are no jobs, and the Centrelink mother’s milk bonanza safety net is taken away. I expect home invasions will go through the roof, as some home invaders no doubt will go in breaking in.

“And now that we are in Year 1 AFE (After-Floyd Era), we must all realize that the United States has been irrevocably damaged, like the Titanic moments after it had been sliced open by the iceberg. Yes, it will stay afloat for a while, but it’s only a matter of time before it sinks and takes a tragically large number of people down with it. A coalition of radical Leftists and racially-vindictive non-whites have hijacked the Democratic Party, burned and looted our cities, torn down our statues, and vowed to destroy the current system and replace it with a racially-charged form of communism. These people are well-funded, organized, violent, and ruthless. Meanwhile, Hollywood, academia, and the mainstream media — the traditional enemies of the Right — root them on. There is no coexisting with these people, no compromise we can reach. How can you with people who don’t recognize your rights and wish only to kill or subjugate you? How can you, with people who use anti-racism or anti-white supremacy as excuses to promote militant black or non-white supremacy? How can you, with people so obsessed with fighting fascism that they justify totalitarianism? These people are not only violent, dangerous, and evil. They also have no standards. Objectively, they stand for nothing — except maybe for nihilism. If things continue unchecked, there will be war. Either Trump wins reelection in November, and they attack, or Trump doesn’t win in November, and they attack. And they won’t stop.”

Are Whites Sub-Human Genetic Defects? (Trick Question) By Richards Miller

     Keep up the good work in maintaining peaceful racial relations, Yusra Khogali. And, good to know what you folks really think about us.

  https://www.mediaite.com/online/black-lives-matter-leader-white-people-are-sub-human-genetic-defects/

“The co-founder of the Toronto chapter of the Black Lives Matter protest movement has come under scrutiny in recent days for an old Facebook post that declared white people were genetically inferior to their black peers. “Whiteness is not humxness,” wrote Yusra Khogali, in a now-deleted post (using gender-neutral alternative spelling). “In fact, white skin is sub-humxn. All phenotypes exist within the black family and white [people] are a genetic defect of blackness.” Khogali proceeded to go on an extended pseudoscientific rant about the benefits of dark skin, according to The Toronto Sun. “Melanin enables black skin to capture light and hold it in its memory mode which reveals that blackness converts light into knowledge,” she claims at one point. “Melanin directly communicates with cosmic energy.” “White [people] are recessive genetic defects. This is factual,” she claimed, nonfactually. Khogali made the Facebook post months ago, but her comments resurfaced after she declared Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau “a white supremacist terrorist,” earning her criticism from liberal allies.

The Contradiction at the Heart of Multiculturalism, that Will Destroy It By James Reed

     Multiculturalism in the West was about the ethno-racial replacement of primarily Anglo-Nordic populations through immigration, allowing the population numbers of these once minority ethnic groups to rise, while the Anglo population decreased. Thus, Australia has gone from about 97 percent Anglo-Celtic at Federation, to who know what today, maybe 30 percent. Philosophically multiculturalism embraced relativism and particularism, arguing that Western culture was not universal, but that all cultures and values are equal, except Anglo culture which is inferior and in need of replacement, which we are seeing happening in real time in the US presently. Now, this scam was only possible because Anglos accepted universalism, and moral principles arising from that, passively allowing their displacement because of extreme individualism, universalism, and deracination. But, now at the point of ethno-racial extinction, it is surely time to rethink this. This paradox of multiculturalism is aptly summarised by Eric Kaufmann:
  https://www.nationalreview.com/2019/02/populism-identity-politics-why-they-rise-in-tandem/

“Right-wing populism and left-wing identity politics have risen in tandem since 2013. Why? The connecting thread is the contradictions of multiculturalism, which encourage a “common enemy” form of minority identity while repressing even moderate expressions of majority identity. The former produces antagonistic identity politics on the left, while both contribute to populist blowback on the right. In the high culture, the advent of social media helped the cultural Left experience its Third Great Awakening, matching the waves of enthusiasm of the late ’60s and late ’80s. Meanwhile, multiculturalism’s half-century sway has presided over profound ethnic shifts, producing mounting conservative discontent. By narrowing the space for debating immigration, progressive taboos prevented mainstream liberals and conservatives from reaching a settlement on the issue. We are now reaping the results. Multiculturalism, which originated among small circles of bohemian intellectuals in the 1910s, came to be established in the elite institutions and mass culture of Western societies from the mid-1960s. Once ascendant, these values created new taboos that drew the boundaries of acceptable debate. These frowned on any expression of a national identity in which the ethnic majority was accorded a prominent role. Since slowing the rate of ethnocultural change is a primary motive for restrictionists, and this was viewed as beyond the pale, the desire to reduce immigration was considered racist. Second, multiculturalism, as its name suggests, encouraged minority groups to celebrate a politicized version of their identity. At multiculturalism’s heart, therefore, lies a contradiction: White majorities are compelled to be cosmopolitan, urged to supersede their ascribed identity. Minorities are enjoined to do the reverse.”

What did the Pro-slavery Whites Argue? By Charles Taylor

     Don’t get me wrong; slavery is morally evil, of course. But, given that it happened, and given that all Whites are now taken to be responsible, we had better understand what the pro-slavers argued, you know, for the historical record, because we will probably be executed over it at some point in the non-white future. Afterall, if we are now criminals for something we did not do, we might as well know about the nature of the crime.    Apparently one of the major pro-slavery texts from the American South was by George Fitzhugh (1806-1881), Sociology for the South, or, The Failure of Free Society Richmond, Va.: A. Morris, 1854. In that he said: “Men are not 'born entitled to equal rights!' It would be far nearer the truth to say, 'that some were born with saddles on their backs, and others booted and spurred to ride them,' - and the riding does them good."; and that the Declaration of Independence "deserves the tumid yet appropriate epithets which Major Lee somewhere applies to the writings of Mr. Jefferson, it is, 'exhuberantly false, and arborescently fallacious.'" No question about it, he was a classic racist, fully against Blacks. But, he also believed that Yankees, if enslaved young, could make equally as good slaves!
  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Fitzhugh
  https://docsouth.unc.edu/southlit/fitzhughsoc/summary.html

“George Fitzhugh was born November 4, 1806 in Prince William County, Virginia to an established southern family in financial decline. His physician father, also named George Fitzhugh, and his mother, Lucy Stuart, would later struggle as small-scale planters when the family moved to a plantation near Alexandria, Virginia. Young George was then six years old. Though he attended a local field school, Fitzhugh was largely self-educated. In 1829 he married Mary Metcalf Brockenbrough and moved near Port Royal, Virginia, where he had obtained a small plantation through marriage and practiced law. Fitzhugh subsequently worked as a law clerk in Washington, D.C. (1857-1858) at the office of Attorney General Jeremiah Sullivan Black in the land claim department. Relocating to Richmond in 1862, he also clerked for the Confederacy's Treasury Department. Following the Civil War, Fitzhugh was appointed a judge in the Freedman's Court (part of the Freedman's Bureau) but left in 1866. Despite later publications in De Bow's Review (in 1867) and Lippincott's Magazine (in 1869 and 1870), George Fitzhugh's postbellum life, like the lives of other proslavery apologist writers, was characterized by relative obscurity. Shortly after his wife's death in 1877, Fitzhugh retired to Frankfort, Kentucky to live with his son. Two years later in 1880, he moved near his daughter's residence in Huntsville, Texas, where he died July 30, 1881.

Family Feuding Within the Church of Leftism By Mrs Vera West

     Leftists have constantly fought, although we tend to think of them as homogeneous. There were different flavours of Marxism some of which were intellectual fashions and died, like structuralist Marxism associated with Louis Althusser (1918-1990) who strangled his wife, a leftist sociologist. It happens.

Was America Founded on a Mistake, or a Lie? By Charles Taylor

     I always suspected that the American Revolution, the Revolutionary War, was a New World Order set-up, in the early Illuminati/Adam Weishaupt mode, who is pretty much like the standard intellectual of today. Here is a mainstream site going on about him; I don’t have any classic conspiratorial books, but I am sure you on-line library will have them, and in fact, before the article is over, my monkey, who acts as my research assistance, will find the links.
  https://www.livescience.com/40048-what-is-the-illuminati.html

“The Illuminati was an 18th-century secret society made up of numerous influential intellectuals and freethinkers of the time. The organization, which is also known as the Bavarian Illuminati, opposed the Roman Catholic Church's control over philosophy and science; promoted the education of women and their treatment as equals; sought to "enlighten" people's minds and free them from superstitions and prejudices; and tried to reduce the oppression of the state. The Illuminati was the brainchild of Adam Weishaupt, who was the chair of canon law and later the dean of the faculty of law at the University of Ingolstadt in Bavaria (a state in southeast Germany) in the early 1770s, according to "New England and the Bavarian Illuminati" (Columbia University Press, 1918), a nonfiction book about the secret society. Weishaupt was vocally critical of the "intolerance and bigotry" of the church, which, at the time, held strong influence over the University of Ingolstadt, as well the politics and government of Bavaria. His criticisms resulted in clashes with the Jesuits, leading Weishaupt to conclude that a secret organization of liberal-minded individuals was necessary to outwit the "enemies of reason." He initially sought to join one of the Freemason lodges, but lacked the funds to do so and felt the order was too well-known to the general public. So, on May 1, 1776, Weishaupt formed the Order of the Illuminati with four other members.

Letter to The Editor - Art and egalitarianism do not go well together

To The Australian        Our public life is being spoiled by dogmatic agitators who bring their political fanaticism into issues of public memorials. Defacing or destroying memorials without adequate authority to do so is contemptible behaviour. Also on the wrong track is Lance Chadd when he calls for "equality" in the country's suite of public memorials ("Monumental time in indigenous history", 4-5/7). The criteria for acceptance and admiration should be quality of life lived (and contribution made to the nation or community) and quality of artistic representation of the person or persons concerned. Art and egalitarianism do not go well together. And the fact that some of our benefactors had bad sides to their character is not a justification for rejecting celebration of the real good they actually accomplished.

The Highwayman By John Steele

     While most modern music is degenerate, country and western remains somewhat pure. Here are two versions of the classic “The Highwayman,” the first by the greats of country music singing together, and the second by Glenn Campbell’s daughter. And, what a tough dude this eternal Highwayman is, surviving hanging, being buried in concrete … that is the spirit of resistance “ I guess I will always be around.” Probably about the Faustian spirit of our race. And, I hope that it is true in these dark times. Darkness indeed.

Nearly Half of the US is Unemployed By Charles Taylor

     This cannot end well; soon nobody is going to have a job, and we will be forced to eat the socialists!
  https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8474819/Nearly-half-U-S-population-without-job.html

“Nearly half of the U.S. adult population is without a job, as the number of Americans filing for unemployment remains high and reopening in several states is slowed because of high levels of new coronavirus cases. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the employment-population ratio for May 2020 shows that just 52.8 percent of the adult population was employed last month. This means that 47.2 percent of adult Americans are jobless despite a surprising surge in jobs in May. The employment-population ratio highlights the number of employed people as a percentage of the U.S. adult population, creating a broader picture of the rate of employment across the country. While the unemployment rate only includes those actively looking for a job, this ratio accounts for those not in the labor force and those discouraged about their prospects of finding a job.”

Finally, Attacking the Adopt-a-Coloured Defence to Racism By Charles Taylor

     I have noticed that in politically correct culture, in primarily Nordic/Northern European ethnics, if couples have a number of children and they are in the limelight, then it is obligatory that they adopt Black or non-Nordic children. While this can be noble if the children are genuinely in need of care, I have often viewed this in a cynical light, as virtue signalling, which is using the kiddies as a political shield. And, that could be racist, gasp! Hell, what isn’t “racist”?
  https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/09/26/ibram-kendi-adopting-black-children-racist-white-colonizer/

“Ibram X. Kendi, director of Boston University’s Center for Antiracist Research, wrote on Saturday that white people who adopt black children may be “racist,” joining a growing group of Democrats and leftists commenting on Judge Amy Coney Barrett’s Haitian son and daughter. Kendi wrote on social media: “Some White colonizers ‘adopted” Black children. They ‘civilized’ these ‘savage’ children in the ‘superior’ ways of White people, while using them as props in their lifelong pictures of denial, while cutting the biological parents of these children out of the picture of humanity.” “And whether this is Barrett or not is not the point,” he continued. “It is a belief too many White people have: if they have or adopt a child of color, then they can’t be racist.” Kendi concluded, “I’m challenging the idea that White parents of kids of color are inherently ‘not racist’ and the bots completely change what I’m saying to ‘White parents of kids of color are inherently racist.’ These live and fake bots are good at their propaganda. Let’s not argue with them.”

Degenerate Whites Who Feel Safe Now, Will be Unsafe Under Biden’s Antifa Government By Chris Knight

     Here is one from the green leafy suburbs that the writers here are always raging about. White women who feel safe, go for Biden; those unsafe go for Trump. That does not increase my respect for the IQ of such women. Oh, a criticism of women, can we say that still?
  https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/09/21/poll-white-suburban-women-safe-biden-those-unsafe-trump/

“White suburban women who feel safe in their communities overwhelmingly support Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, but those who feel unsafe support President Donald Trump, according to an Axios/SurveyMonkey poll released on Thursday. The “survey of 14,043 U.S. adults who are white and live in suburbs,” was part of a “SurveyMonkey poll of 35,732 U.S. adults” that was conducted between August 31 and September 6 on the SurveyMonkey platform and has a margin of error of one percent. The popular SurveyMonkey platform — on which more than two million Americans participate in surveys of all sorts each day — uses a different polling methodology than most other polling firms, many of which begin with a file of confirmed registered voters whom they contact by landline phone, cell phone, or online, and ask questions about their likelihood of voting. Many polls use samples of registered voters only, while the subset of likely voters is considered by many polling professionals to be a more accurate predictor of actual voting behavior. In contrast, SurveyMonkey polls are open to all adults who reside in America. That sample includes registered voters, but also residents of the country — not necessarily American citizens — who are not registered to vote. With those caveats in mind, the SurveyMonkey poll results paint a clear and compelling picture. Fifty-eight percent of poll respondents who are white and live in suburbs say they feel “very safe” in their community, while 38 percent say they feel “somewhat safe” and four percent said they feel “unsafe.”

Martian Lives Matter Too! By Brian Simpson

     Revelations about UFOs have been made by sources close to the US government, so it is safe to say that little green men from Mars walk among us, now, perhaps not all that visible out of fear of racial discrimination, and hate, but they are here. So, hasn’t the time come for Extra-terrestrial Lives Matter too? Or is it necessary for these green beings to make use of their super-advanced technology and laser beam and light sabre everything in sight, just to get a bit of justice? Just because these beings have green scaly skin/hide, and eyes, three of them, on stalks, does not mean that they are not subject to personhood rights, and comprehensive cosmic, universal, refugee resettlement packages. BLM need to think more cosmologically. Less wrecking, more thinking.

Digging Our Own Graves By Chris Knight

     This is a depressing quote, but true, how across the world, Anglo Saxons, had the world, but let it slip through their hand, down the drain. Not even a fight, just a passive surrender, maybe not even that, but just dumbness. What force, or forces led to this pathological altruism? James Burnham in Suicide of the West: An Essay on the Meaning and Destiny of Liberalism (1964), says in a small passage that behind decadent liberalism, lies materialism, and consumerism, over-affluence resulting in weakness that leads to the pathological liberal mind set. Probably the decline of testosterone from plastics, a product of the affluence throw-away society has had a lion’s share to play too. There is not much manhood left out there. Shameful, but the Anglos will be forgotten, as they, and all that they produced, will be written out of history, if there is to be a future of history. It ids happening now, with the statues being torn down.
  http://www.occidentaldissent.com/2020/09/17/the-rise-of-modernism/

“In his book The Rise and Fall of Anglo-America, Eric P. Kaufmann argued that the American elite became modernist, cosmopolitan and antiracist during the first three decades of the 20th century. WASP elites began to reject their own ethnicity and “Anglo-conformity” which was the process by which European immigrants came to America and were expected to assimilate into the American nation. Instead of assimilating into a common American culture, European immigrants were encouraged to retain their own culture and enrich an otherwise sterile, bland and philistine Anglo-America. This idea which gained traction on the Left in the 1920s was later broadened into multiculturalism.

Biblical Words of Encouragement in Trying Times By James Reed

“Bread of deceit is sweet to a man; but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel. Every purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice make war. He that goeth about as a talebearer revealeth secrets: therefore meddle not with him that flattereth with his lips. Whoso curseth his father or his mother, his lamp shall be put out in obscure darkness. An inheritance may be gotten hastily at the beginning; but the end thereof shall not be blessed. Say not thou, I will recompense evil; but wait on the Lord, and he shall save thee. Divers weights are an abomination unto the Lord; and a false balance is not good. Man’s goings are of the Lord; how can a man then understand his own way? It is a snare to the man who devoureth that which is holy, and after vows to make enquiry. A wise king scattereth the wicked, and bringeth the wheel over them. The spirit of man is the candle of the Lord, searching all the inward parts of the belly. Mercy and truth preserve the king: and his throne is upholden by mercy. The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of old men is the grey head. The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so do stripes the inward parts of the belly.”

  – Proverbs 20: 17-30 (KJV) The King James version – truly beautiful prose, divinely inspired.

The Coming Nordicide By Brian Simpson

     One of the issues not dealt with by the white nationalist is inter-racial survival, particularly the sub-racial groups such as Nordic, northern Europeans. In fact, some open-minded “nationalists” were quite willing to bash anyone concerned about this, and daring to write on that theme. (Might as well join the system than join those guys.) The Nordic racial group is under the strongest attack, part of it methodological, that is, being defined not to exist by the otherwise identity conscious elites, the same elites who see the entire universe as a social construction with a million types of gender … and then there is outright attack. By “Nordics,” I mean not merely Scandinavians, but the generally light haired, light eyed northern Europeans, such as the descendants of the Anglo Saxons. Madison Grant gave a classic account, and there are more recent racial theorists dealing with this, and I will report on it, if still breathing in the future.

The Rebirth of Socialism (but it Never Went Away) By James Reed

     The mythology of some conservatives is that communism was defeated with the collapse of the USSR, which ignores the rise of China, and the cancerous Left’s long march through the institution’s today. Most of the administration, the executive, the educators, are dominated by some form of Leftoid, and it is something which our side of politics has never really understood. Now, open socialism is raging, at least in the US, and we can expect the commo-disease to reach Australia too:
  https://www.cbsnews.com/news/socialism-in-america-2020-cbsn-originals/

“Socialism has gone mainstream in American politics, but it remains deeply controversial. While some believe it offers an appealing solution to the country's woes, for others it conjures up fearful imagery of authoritarian regimes. The new CBSN Originals documentary, "Speaking Frankly | Socialism," explores the resurgent interest in socialism and the culture wars surrounding its role in America today. "The democratic socialist movement is being driven by millennials, zoomers, younger people," says Jabari Brisport, a Brooklyn teacher who embraces the socialist label and is running as a Democrat for a New York State Senate seat. "Younger people are interested in socialism because we can see so clearly the failings of capitalism." A 2019 Pew Research Center survey found half of young adults under 30 expressed positive views of socialism — nearly as many as the 52% who felt positively about capitalism. Membership in the Democratic Socialists of America has jumped from 6,500 to 70,000 over the last six years. But Maria Fernanda Bello, an activist with Young Americans Against Socialism, sees the trouble that's gripped her native Venezuela as a warning. "Socialists are always going to promise you free tuition, free health care, free everything, but they will never promise you freedom," she said.”

Here are What the Cancerous Growths are Really on About By Charles Taylor (Florida)

     I think of the population/immigration growth lobby in terms of the cancer metaphor, an entity which is never satisfied, and knows no limits, spreading and ultimately destroying the body social, and itself. Thus, over in your place, Australia, Big Business says that they want a population as big as America, but if they had it, they would not stop there and would then attempt to create a population as big as China, and then the world. Still, markets would not be big enough. Only the entire multiverse, full of a transfinite number of consuming orifices would come close to giving the infinitely hungry monster what it wants.
  https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2020/08/one-billion-americans-by-matthew-yglesias-book-excerpt.html

“The United States is not “full.” In fact, it is empty. Right now, the country has about 93 people per square mile. Many, many countries are far denser than this, and not just city-states like Singapore (more than 20,000 per square mile) or small island nations like Malta (3,913 per square mile). South Korea has 1,337 people per square mile, and Belgium has 976. If you tripled the population of the United States, adding the new Americans only to the Lower 48 and leaving Alaska and Hawaii intact and unchanged, the main part of America would be only about as dense as France and less than half as dense as Germany. A transformation on that scale is almost impossible to imagine, in large part because the American political system has fallen into a state of torpor and dysfunction driven by, among other things, the absence of the shared sense of purpose that once bound the national experiment. But while contemporary politics is terrifying in certain ways, it has also opened up again the possibility of goals, and projects, and ideas — probably the biggest opportunity in a generation for new ideas to take hold. So here is one big one: a billion Americans. When America faced down Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union, we were the big dog. We had more people, more wealth, and more industrial capacity. (Back in 1938, the gross domestic product of the U.S. alone was larger than that of Germany, Japan, and Italy combined.) But against China, we are the little dog: There are more than 1 billion of them to about 330 million of us. Chinese people don’t need to become as rich as Americans for China’s overall economy to outweigh ours. If they managed to become about half as rich as we are on a per person basis, like the Bahamas or Spain, then their economy would be far larger than ours in the aggregate. To become one-third as rich as we are, like Portugal or Greece, would be enough to pull even. To stay on top, we probably need to grow the country threefold — to one billion Americans. If you tripled the population of the United States, it would still be only about as dense as France.
