Too many young whites see this as a down rather than an up escalator
Since our last update, we have received twelve new donations totaling $1,660. Our total so far is $16,036.50. Our goal is to raise $50,000 by October 31, so we are $33,963.50 away from our goal. Again, I want to thank all of our donors for their generous support.

The stereotype of White Nationalists is that they are white male “losers” who have no jobs, live with their families, and spend all of their time on the internet. As it turns out, under Obama, such “losers” are one of the fastest growing segments of the US population: the millenials are now becoming the “Boomerang Generation.”
For instance, in New Jersey, 25% of adults between 18 and 31 are living with their parents, 42% of them 24 or older. These are not high-school dropouts, either. A very high percentage are college graduates who cannot find work in their field, who have tens of thousands in college debts (if not more than $100,000), and who are unemployed or underemployed or employed at jobs where they are overqualified (Starbucks, Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods).
White Nationalists, of course, are always bemoaning the lack of young people in our movement, especially middle-class, college-educated young people — the people who were brought up on the idea that they were “tomorrow’s leaders.” We are also, of course, given to bemoaning the fact that our best people are systematically coopted by the system. Their careers, families, and mortgages discourage them from taking unpopular stands.
Well, the system is no longer coopting an astonishing number of young, middle-class, college-educated white men and women. White dispossession has worked its way to their demographic group too. They are intelligent, educated, and ambitious. They are also unemployed, idle, angry, and searching for answers. For White Nationalists, they are a vast, increasingly receptive audience, for we are the only ones offering honest explanations of what is happening to them and realistic, long-term solutions.
Boomerang discontent did feed the Occupy movement for a while, but Marxism, Political Correctness, and the “Progressive Stack” rapidly wore thin for those looking for real answers. The fact of the matter is that Boomerangs are not victims of Adam’s Smith’s “Invisible Hand” but of the all too visible hand of systematic white dispossession.
While whites are graduating from universities hobbled with tens of thousands of dollars of debt, affirmative action students come out debt free. While white job applicants face systematic discrimination, affirmative action applicants have unfair advantages. While native-born white Americans are struggling to find jobs, the country is being flooded with immigrants, who are taking disproportionate numbers of jobs and driving wage scales down even as college costs — and debts — balloon.
College-educated, middle-class whites are not “tomorrow’s leaders.” Tomorrow’s leaders consist of a largely Jewish oligarchy, surrounded and protected by layers of non-white and alienated white allies. Since Jews are few in number, they cannot fill all leadership and middle management positions. But it is imperative that whites not fill these positions. If non-whites cannot be found, white women, homosexuals, or miscegenators will have to do. Anything but straight white men married to white women and reproducing the white race. Hence the necessity of affirmative action and non-white immigration, to lower white wages and raise white unemployment.
White Nationalists are the only people who offer real upward mobility to the Boomerang Generation. We will end affirmative action. We will end immigration for non-whites and start repatriation. We will reinstitute protectionism and rebuild America’s economy. We will cancel all student loan debts, as well as all other private and public debts to banks. We will make affordable family formation a national priority. We will create a society in which white people feel at home and have real hope for the future.
Counter-Currents is taking the lead in appealing to the Boomerang Generation. In particular, we are looking for writers who can show how White Nationalism both explains and solves their problems. We are especially interested in finding actual Boomerangs who are interested in making their ample time and lack of prospects into assets, by working to advance White Nationalism as writers, activists, and organizers. Please let us know what we can do to reach more people like you. Contact me at [email protected] or leave a comment below.
White Nationalists often lament that our message falls on deaf ears. Well, the Boomerang Generation have ears to hear us. We just need to hone and deliver our message. And to do that, we need to begin by listening to them.
If Counter-Currents is to be there for the Boomerang Generation, you, dear reader, need to be there for us. Please make a donation to our Summer Fundraiser today. You can visit our Donate page here.
Thank you for your continued readership and support.

Really interesting and unique analysis! I applaud it.
I hadn’t even considered the fact that Affirmative Action students don’t accrue college debt… I’m up to my ears in it.
You graduate with shackles, they graduate with wings.
Literally. I’ve noticed an increased number of young professionals who are of color who race-mix. The final door to open all-out miscegenation is no longer psychological, but economic, if you want my opinion. I think if blacks and hispanics at a young age are socially and economically presented with the same opportunities as whites, the blending will occur easily. That’s the plan, I guess.
“Tomorrow’s leaders consist of a largely Jewish oligarchy, surrounded and protected by layers of non-white and alienated white allies. Since Jews are few in number, they cannot fill all leadership and middle management positions. But it is imperative that whites not fill these positions.”
This is exactly the same strategy followed by the grandparents and great-uncles of the oligarchy you refer to in the prison of nationalities called the USSR. The policy was to place Polish Communists, for example, over Russian Communists, and Russian Communists over any other nation. It worked for that oligarchy for almost a century.

Regarding reaching out to newbies who have been marginalized, may I respectfully suggest a strategy built around the thin edge of the wedge and not the thick edge? It is always amazing to me that some white activists lead with the most extreme propositions and wonder why people flee back into the margins. I don’t think the white activists understand at all the three levels:
1) Demonstrate successes in something, anything, on a community level with textbooks, hate speech in the newspaper, hate speech from the mayor, whatever. Whatever issue affects the lives of actual white Americans.
2) Have classes to teach newbies how to talk with the media who are regularly assigned to interview newbies (those who have discovered their white voice or, if you prefer, their white identity), and how to do action things of an entirely legal nature that are attractive to other newbies.
3) Have inner-cabinet meetings to satisfy those white activists who want to bluster and issue grand announcements about the least attractive elements. Remember that 50% of the diverse white Americans have an IQ below 100, and are easily attracted to shockingly negative posturing.
At Resisting Defamation, we believe that the largest problem is that when newbies discover their white voice and their white identity, the only place where they learn to talk is that place whereafter it haunts their ability to do things on the ground. Why don’t the blog leadership put together classes or summer camps for newbies to learn about white centricity, and speaking about our children, grandchildren rather than wail and cavort around denouncing Others? The white voice is not sufficient…white centricity is a vital necessity. Otherwise we simply graduate whiners and complainers who gather around the contemporary cracker barrel at the country store and vent, rant, and grouch. The kids need help.
As a member of the boomerang generation myself (although not being a boomerang) I have to say that this article completely leaves out the irresponsibility of our white forefathers. The lifestyle appreciated and lived by whites who are now over 35 and under 70 came at the expense of the future. Our (boomerang generation) future.
Cultural Marxism and debt (which we did not incur, but were burdened with from our elders) were tolerated by the boomers and even Gen X because life was prosperous and the future was of little concern … screw the children.
I figured out the extent of the debt problem when I was 14, back in 2006, so I have a hard time believing the idea that white boomers ‘didn’t know’ what their benefit plans and outrageous university fees were going to do to younger whites.
Thank you boomers, enjoy your retirement after a life of luxury. The rest of us white young males will watch as our sisters race-mix and our prospects of ever owning a home are ruined!
To add insult to injury, many boomers are working on after retirement, further impeding the upward mobility of millenials. Many of these boomers say they can’t afford to retire, having been fleeced of their investments and retirement by the big dip in the ponzi economy and the so-called recovery, which has been worse than the recession.
The divisive, unfounded comment by Celine’s Idea is a good example of “whiners and complainers who gather around the contemporary cracker barrel at the country store and vent, rant, and grouch.”
At the time he is talking about, the diverse white Americans were fresh from two wars (WWW II and Vietnam) and striving to establish lives and families. What Celine’s Idea doesn’t understand is that the diverse white Americans did create a structure to protect our lives and property…it was called America and it became twisted and perverted. But that’s why we need constructive ideas and thoughts for action at this time. Let’s hear some action steps.
But his kvetching is a good example of the thanks this generation can expect from the people 40 years from now. The hardest working people are the ones most blamed by the next generation.
I hear what you are saying Bo and in part I agree. However, when children ask questions and they are given lies, and when they find out they were lies, the inter-generational connection gets severed. It is better for parents to say I don’t know than to lie. It is better to say ” I thought it was the right thing to do at the time” than to say that we fought for freedom when that means nothing in real terms. People think the hippie generation was to blame. They were just reacting to the lies they knew they were told even if just subconsciously. That that was subverted, is not the fault of that generation. The whole consumerist society really took hold after the war. I get the fact kids blame their parents nowadays and it does not help to change anything. It is part of the whole game being played out. Who is the real enemy?
I despise the boomers because they created this mess, and as your comment indicates (I assume you are a boomer brat), choose not to take any responsibility. If our decline as a race and current economic downturn was the fault of coincidence, the Jews, or monetary derivatives, I would not be bitter. But the fact that our elders stabbed us in the back by taking care of themselves and peddling the debt on to us, all the while claiming that we boomerang young men are ‘whiners’ and that we should just ‘suck it up’ is distasteful.
Most boomers hate Hitler. I wonder why? Perhaps because Nazi Germany is the exact opposite society to the world the boomers live in … you know, a place with actual responsible, cultured, and intelligent adults who want the best for their children.
The sort of reader CC markets to is the exact opposite of a baby boomer, at least in my mind; discipline, self-sacrifice, and excellence are all traits that the boomers mock. All of my life I have educated by those decadent slobs, and CC (and the Closing of the American Mind) was the antidote to all of the humanism, collectivism, and white guilt I was taught by the Worst Generation Ever at high school and college.
Bo, your comment shows that you are not young (you don’t get how bad the situation your generation has created is), so you have no idea the sort of environment a young white male is raised in today. Never mind the horror of what is taught at the university, we are FORCED to take out loans to pay for college, not for ourselves, but to pay for minorities and also for the salaries of white liberal-communist staff … there isn’t an option (except if you have the combination of wealthy parents and excellent grades [I have the latter, luckily]). The option of not going to college or going to a state college that is inexpensive (idiocracy centers) is not really a viable option.
As a result, intelligent and decent young men are leaving school with 40,000 – 60,000 in debt, with no job prospects, a worthless degree, multicultural indoctrination, no prospect of landing a wife, and no ability to raise children. For many, their lives are ruined without even getting off the ground. All the while the negro alphas are sleeping with their sisters and potential mates.
This problem could create a target audience for White Nationalism. I just worry that most of us have had our brains fried from all of the degenerate entertainment.
This is not investment advice.
Don’t be too sure about your prospects of ever owning a home are ruined. Old timers such as Richard Russell (80 years of age) and Jim Sinclair (73 years of age) http://www.jsmineset.com/ say that they have never seen anything like today’s situation. And of course we can’t leave out Martin Armstrong http://armstrongeconomics.com/2013/08/14/bail-in-crisis/
The books must be rebalanced either by a bail in or revaluation of gold.
The past is gone’ look to the future and catch the next wave.
A site such as http://whispersfromtheedgeoftherainforest.blogspot.ca/ has enough info together with the sidebars to get you started.
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs,,,,,
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
And — which is more — you’ll be a Man, my son
Mr. Johnson,
Great piece. I have emailed you requesting guidance.
Thank you.
C. Martel
Hey? Did everyone forget about us Gen Xers? I guess so. Seems like we will always be the middle child of such discussions. We worked at Mcjobs but also had some great opportunities after we graduated in the late 80s and early 90s. We are now back at the Mcjobs but can’t stand living with our Boomer parents because we know they despise for being an incursion into their self-actualizing, narcissistic 1960s lives. But, we make due and wonder why no one talks about the Vietnam War anymore.
