I recommend that all of my readers carefully read through the following article by manosphere writer Roosh: “How to Defeat New York Media Liberals.”
Read it with an eye to how we can apply it to mainstream media attacks on White Nationalists in particular (for instance the campaign against Charles Krafft earlier this year) and on whites in general who are singled out for destruction for politically incorrect ideas.
It strikes me that to implement Roosh-style campaigns, we need to have a circle of blogs and webzines that cooperate with one another.
Whenever someone is targeted for destruction for healthy ideas, we need to find the name of the person behind the attack. If said person is an economically vulnerable, underemployed twenty-something nitwit trying to make a name for herself by playing Witchfinder General, our best polemicists need to craft brief, witty, devastating profiles chock full of reputation-damaging truths that will appear on the first page of Google results every time said author’s résumé crosses the desk of some risk-averse corporate Human Resources airhead. In today’s job market, any form of controversy — even controversy courted in the name of the Holy Church of Political Correctness — is a disadvantage, as there are countless equally politically correct candidates with no negative Google results.
But to make sure that such hit pieces rise to the top of Google searches, we need a whole circle of bloggers who make a point of reprinting and linking such pieces. Such reposting and linking happens already, but we need to prioritize it. For purveyors of “virulent” ideas, we are rather slapdash at making them genuinely go viral.

I think this is a great idea, and something we can all chip in on. The gun community does this, too. Earlier this year during the post-Connecticut gun control battles, some low-life at a corporate-owned paper thought they were being smart by publishing the names and addresses of all CC permit holders. It’s a game two can play for sure.

I believe most of us in this movement are more than willing to so anything we can to stop the vile practices of the antis. The issue has always been how or where we could organize do to such defensive raids against uppity anti whites.
Now one place that has been very successful at organizing such raids is 4chan.org, especially the /pol/ and of course the more notorious and less aligned with white nationalism /b/.
All we need is someone to set the sights on a target, show the injustice and unleash the hounds.
We are taking nominations . . .
I will be emailing you a list soon.
Yeah, 4chan did a great job with Adria Richards, a half-black Jewish feminist who overheard a couple of guys at a tech conference making what she claims was a sexist joke, then proceeded to try and get them fired by publicly shaming them. She ended up getting fired herself for her shenanigans, and public opinion among those who followed the story ended up mostly against her and other feminists like her.
White Advocate, when I read the first lines where you used the term “antis”, I was going to get on your case, but you saved yourself later by saying it properly: “anti-Whites”.
It’s a good rule of thumb in this battle to ALWAYS use the complete term: “anti-Whites”.
This is OUR meme, and it’s a deadly one once it’s promulgated. Very simple, actually, but never, ever use the term “anti” without adding “White” to it.
Sorry to sound nit-picky, but our use of language is our most powerful weapon at this point, which means we must USE IT to best advantage.
No this is the same type of nit picky language policing the left does. If you care to be the analog to the politically correct than be my guest, but its an annoying turn off.
Vacant Serif opposes the strategy of utilizing the most politically effective language as “leftist.” Perhaps it is, but it’s also coincident with the left having up to now thoroughly demolished their opposition in the war of words.
Sign me up! Google bombing is fun!
This is a great idea. It doesn’t take a lot to start a blog.
My reservation is that it is reinforcing the idea that racism and sexism are bad things. However I’m seeing among patriot and tea party types less and less concern over charges of racism, simply because of overuse. There’s no sign that political correctness is in any danger of being forgotten, but perhaps this would help just make people sick of it. When everyone’s politically incorrect hopefully it doesn’t matter any more.
I am with you on that last point. I think that we should do everything we can to undermine that value system rather than reaffirm it with “So-and-so is the real racist” posturing.
You know, Greg, you’re writing about this like it’s a newly minted idea. Saul Alinsky called it personalizing. Alinsky: “Personalize, personalize, personalize”.
He goes on to point out that by picking one out of the herd and personalizing the attack, this will also polarize the others, who will either a)reveal themselves by coming to the defense of your target and thereby be smeared by association or b) leave him to die.
Since we’re only talking about a few thousand people, it seems to me that with a little organization and some information, this could easily be done. But only if people want to win and aren’t squeamish about real harm done to real individuals. Not violence, mind you, but harm.
I’d love to see that woman in Slate who said that anyone who sent their kids to private school was a bad person left without the means to become employed or support herself for the rest of her life. It would be even better if she had reason to fear for her safety following a disruption in civil authority.
For this reason, I recommend a Mme. DeFarge list of offenders. I privately refer to people on this list as ‘the scarf’, collectively. Every Catholic Bishop in the United States should prefer to have fallen into the hands of Oliver Cromwell or the Reds, than face what is coming.
You should read Alinsky’s book, extract all the major generalizations, and provide them in easily digestible form for your readers. There’s no need to stoop to Roosh. As with the rest of political philosophy, there is nothing new under the sun. It’s just that people committed to radical change did not codify their methods until recently. Since they’ve done it, let’s learn from the best.
Roosh makes the valuable point that Google can serve as a tool of asymmetrical warfare.
As if on cue:
“According to the New York Times, America’s Catholic bishops are counting on the persuasive power of the pulpit this month to push “comprehensive immigration reform”—also known as amnesty for illegal aliens.
[. . . ]
Bishop John C. Wester chaired the Committee on Migration of the bishops’ conference (USCCB) at the time. He told the Catholic News Service that “the church will prod lawmakers take action on the issue, beginning with a postcard campaign to members of Congress and prayer vigils across the country.” [CNS, January 8, 2010].
[. . . ]
Catholics in my diocese are asking their pastors, in and out of the Confessional, “Is it a sin to oppose amnesty?”
Countless bishops would apparently like them to think so. Roger Cardinal Mahony once told an immigration rally that supporters of current law were “fanning the flames of intolerance, xenophobia and, at times, bigotry.”
Curiously, the Rubble can find no record of Mahony or his successor, Los Angeles Archbishop José Gomez—or any other bishop or USCCB official, for that matter—condemning the blatant racism of La Raza—”The Race”—or that of many other pro-amnesty agitators who march alongside them in amnesty rallies.
Instead, the Cardinal implies that everyone who disagrees with him is irrational.

Raven, maybe you should do this, or at least submit a draft to give Greg Johnson something to work with. This needs to be a community effort. We can’t just rely on a few individuals to do everything. Greg is extremely busy and this would be a major contribution on your part. Especially if you think “there is no need to stoop to Roosh.” Don’t worry if it isn’t perfect. We will refine it. Besides, it’s better to have something to work with that’s imperfect than nothing at all. And nothing is perfect anyway.
I hope you’ll take up this challenge. I look forward to reading it!
Yes the liberals did this to some republican whose name became synonymous with bestiality. I forget who it was.
Good start, but you need a play book, which you have. Just make a chronological check list of how the SPLC and ADL proceed against our patriots.
Patriot says something naughty.
Anti 1 says “that’s borderline racist.”
Anti 2 says “that’s racist.”
Anti 3 says “that’s virulently racist.”
Anti 4 says “that’s racist hate speech.”
Anti 1 agrees.
Patriot apologizes.
Antis demand resignation.
Patriot apologizes again, but more.
Antis demand firing.
Employer slow to fire.
Antis say employer “harboring racists.”
Patriot gets fired, and apologizes again.
Antis demand “oversight” of employer, big donation, and seat on the board.
Employer institutes anti racism sensitivity training from Friend of Antis, for $100,000.
Repeat.
CCP should issues press releases just like the ADL, “condemning” this bad thing, and “welcoming” that good thing, and should just copy, paste, replace SPLC materials to read anti them, pro us.
It’s so easy to do, nobody’s doing it.

Counter-Currents Anti-Bias Experts to Host Free Webinar Series on Combating Anti-White Hate in Schools.
This is great!
For each and every line the “bad guys” use, throw it back at them but substitute “anti-White”.
—-
Pro-White says something positive about the diverse white european demographic.
Anti-White 1 says “that’s borderline racist.”
Pro-White says “In your OPINION that’s “borderline racist”. You’re just saying that because I’m White.
Anti-Whites 2 & 3 says“that’s racist” and “that’s virulently racist”.
Pro-White says “In your OPINION that’s “racist”, you’re just saying that because I’m White. Why do you hate White people?
Anti-White 4 says “that’s racist hate speech.”
Pro-White says “Calling White people “racists” and “haters” IS hate speech. Why do you insist on promoting your bigotry and hatred for the diverse white European American people?
Pro-White NEVER apologizes for promoting a decent sense of self-respect for himself, his people, and especially his children.
Anti-Whites snivel and sputter.
Pro-White says “Anti-‘racist’ is just a code word for anti-White. You anti-Whites are promoting Genocide”.
Pro-White networks with other pro-Whites and creates viral memes about those PARTICULAR anti-Whites, with said memes carrying the idea that these people are promoting Genocide.
Genocide is a very, very serious accusation.
Anti-Whites get fired for promoting Genocide.
Rinse and repeat …. again and again …. No mercy for Anti-White scum.
When an anti-white says a pro-white made “a racist” speech or whatever, a pro-white should respond with “Define your terms or terminology.”
I really like the idea of turning the light on and watching the cockroaches scatter.
I notice at a few blogs I see some guys are always doing this in the comments:
“Reblogged this on (link to another blog).”
Is this the method? We need a master article, and then we all link to it? I can do that.
That’s the way to do it: a master article, which gets reblogged and linked, or just linked, as widely as possible.
Greg, this is a great idea about taking the energy on the white blogs outdoors to admonish the haters, bullies, supremacists, and bigots…all supporters of the anti-white narrative.
Our opponents, moral supremacists all, are as stunned and traumatized by well developed messages as we were, well, at some time before we got a tough skin. We put a sample instruction on our web site as to how to do this by emails at
http://www.resistingdefamation.org,
click the tab “Attacking Back,”
and look over the examples we provide in the left hand column.
However, your idea to merge activities and influence search engines is a whole new level of activity, and one we applaud and will happily support in every way.
There are some clear cut rules in this matter so as to avoid creating a whole new scandal, and the principle one is to attackback without mentioning the demographic affinity group of which the guilty one is a member. That diminishes the nature of the attackback by making it new evidence for the Race Manufacturing Machine.
It isn’t “fair” because our opponents bash us and our race all at the same time, but in 2013 America we have that one limitation, besides being grammatical and well spoken.
We need to remember that we don’t want to act like (well, you know) when we represent the diverse white Americans in our white voice…staying white-centric works so very well. This is just another way of saying Alinsky was right, attack the attacker, not his crowd or crew or kin or brethren.
I wouldn’t bother trying to assemble a list, just pick one for the first time and let’s experiment. Making a list should be done constantly as should be the attackback machine.
Bo has great insight, especially with the special word “Attackback”.
As he says, we create more problems for ourselves if we merely “Attack”, and especially if we pick on a nameable demographic group.
But an “Attackback” is a very different thing: it’s a response to an attack on us or ours. It uses the energy of incoming hostile fire and turns it back on the anti-White attacker, but without (I repeat WITHOUT) a trace of naming the attacker.
An attackback has the characteristic of pointing out the nature of the original anti-White attack as a form of Slur, Hate-Caricature, or Stereotype which is only used by Bullies, Bigots and Haters.
The point is to speak to the “peanut gallery”, ie. those non-participants who are listening or reading; and to make it very clear that the MIND of the attacker is the mind of a Bully, a Bigot or a Hater.
No need to call the anti-White attacker by any “identity names”, just leave the peanut gallery with the impression that the attacker is a Bigot, Bully and Hater for daring to employ Slurs, Hate Caricatures and/or Stereotypes to designate a member of the Diverse White European American affinity group.
THEY are the bullies, bigots and haters. Let’s make sure everyone else knows it.
I strongly urge everyone to go to Bo’s excellent site and learn “how it’s done”. The Resisting Defamation crew is “doing it” every day, and rather well imho.
I was talking to a “red-pilled” friend of mine about the affair that prompted Roosh’s article earlier today, and one of the things that came up was how white collar workers are quite the precariat these days: very little job security, high “educational”/certification burden, large amounts of debt, a major lag/delay on certain life decisions, along with ever-expanding scrutiny of private thoughts and decisions. A definite weak-point to exploit, especially since a lot of these young writers don’t have years of accomplishments to feed the Google algorithm.
The nominating process is now officially open.
By chance, I was reading last night about Éric Werner’s essay, Le système de trahison (Lausanne: L’Âge d’Homme, 1986), which argues that treason has become normative through the inversion of values, behaviors, and loyalties. In Werner’s view, people today often commit treason, not out of passion, idealism, or a desire for gain, but very often for less than nothing. One can commit treason without risk or cost. This state of affairs needs to be changed.
We need to carefully study “the system of treason” in economic terms, both macroeconomic and microeconomic, and to start taxing its agents.
Yes, as per Andrew Hamilton’s piece on “The Other Racial Spoils System” (https://counter-currents.com/2013/08/the-other-racial-spoils-system/) we need to take away some of the worldly advantages of racial treason whenever we spot a vunerable target who can be destroyed with little effort. We need to cut the lower rungs off the ladder of advancement through racial betrayal and anti-white racism. Of course the most vunerable targets are straight white men who seek to advance themselves through racial treason, because they belong to the demographic profile that must be destroyed first by our enemies.
That last line, about “vulnerable targets” is really the whole situation. It is the White men, who should have the most enthusiasm for a racially conscious nation, that have all along been its greatest betrayers.
Great idea. The the 1st half of the 2nd paragraph of the Roosh piece reads like a page from “Trust Me, I’m Lying: Confessions of a Media Manipulator,” aka “How to be a Media Alpha Predator.” http://tinyurl.com/m453rsv
This sounds like a great idea! I shall create a few blogs on blogspot and wordpress, with different themes, for example Zen, National Socialism, Science Fiction, Futurism, Arianism, Asatru, psychology, Knights, nationalist, Fairy Tales, Catholicism, Ayn Rand, Runes, Bikes.
However, we need a mechanism to alert our bloggers to reblog a counter-attack piece. What about one central blog where these pieces can be mounted? I could create one. Or a subdirectory on a blog with much traffic, like Counter-Currents.
What I like above all about this approach is that we can go into the attack. Only defending yourself engenders a passive, weak mindset. The attack is the best defense. Some of our people may have to swallow a bit, but we cannot afford to be too genteel. We must not be shy to destroy the career of race traitors whenever possible. This is war!
Didn’t see it mentioned, but I think it would be important for all the “blogs” jumping in on the attack must have some legitimacy, especially the one originating the attack. If the blogs all link back to, say, Stormfront as the originator, (which I like, but has NO legitimacy in the eyes of mainstream society…) then the project is dead in the water. Likewise, if the “attack” blogs are full of swastikas and other show stopping accoutrements, the assault is stalled at the starting gate.
Yes and no. Of course it is nice to have outlets that can be taken seriously. But (1) how much legitimacy does Roosh, author of Bang Iceland and other tracts, have?, and (2) this is the internet, which means that anybody can link to anything, thus you really can’t control things like that anymore.
A vulnerable target is anyone who needs a job OR who needs to do business without becoming embroiled in controversy. Consider that mayor in Georgia. LOS just protested him. With public officials, it should be a simple matter to into the public records and find out which private contractors he is using for city business. Get the owners’ names, and protest them. Who are that mayor’s donors? How many depend on local patronage and would be harmed by bad press? Pull their public financial statements, and find out who handles their legal work. Protest them.
Not everyone involved in the anti-white money racket swings a hammer as big as the SPLC. There seems to be a whole cottage industry of people making money off of anti-white hate. Someone invites Tim Wise to speak? Who are they? Who pays them? Who does their legal and accounting work? All potential soft targets.
Greg, you titled this article “Deterring Media Witch Hunts”. I think that’s the DEFENSIVE aspect of this war, and only part of the struggle.
This effort can also be thought of in terms of “STARTING Media Witch Hunts”, against the anti-White haters and bigots.
Let’s think: How do we START FIRES that spread, rather than limiting ourselves to thinking about putting out fires.
We now have enough clout in the new (ie. real) media, via the massive network that is getting nothing but bigger … to ….
START FIRES
Here is a link to a recent podcast which discusses this, and one way some are doing it:
http://whiterabbitradio.net/audio/FTWR-76.mp3
I’m busy right now and don’t have time to read the piece (I will later) but I wanted to say this real quick, so forgive me if I repeat anything in the article.
I’ve been thinking about this problem for a long time, I think the easiest way to defeat media witch hunts is to reward those who are victimized by them. If the Aryan community was able to procure high-paying replacement jobs and/or other forms of remuneration for anyone destroyed by a witch hunt that would defeat the purpose of the witch hunt (which, of course, is to silence opposition through the threat of stigmatization leading to a loss of livelihood, etc.).
As an example, if a media personality is “witch-hunted” — as John Darbyshire was a-while back — the community could pool funds for a fellowship, that could be used to pay him more to work for one of our media outlets (like Counter-Currents).
Another example would be what recently happened to Craig Cobb. If we had funds to pay Cobb to continue his community building efforts in Leith, groups like the SPLC wouldn’t bother to engage in witch hunts against men like him.
The left has engaged in this practice for a long time. The Jena 6 were richly rewarded in cash and in other prestige/status building exercises (like appearances on BET awards shows).
I think Greg’s status and trust level is high enough in Nationalist circles that he would make and excellent choice for admistrator of such a trust fund.
The touble with this plan is that we don’t have the money to do such things. Someday, maybe, but until then, we need to focus on cheap, asymmetrical revenge/deterrence strategies like the one outlined by Roosh. And wouldn’t it be great to create an atmosphere in which these shits do not dare to pick on racially aware people.
Derbyshire, by the way, is not a White Nationalist at all. He is a conservative cognitive elitist who is married to a Chinese woman and has two non-white children. Beyond that, he has attacked White Nationalists in the most scurrilous terms, referring to AmRen attendees as “latrine flies” and attacking Kevin MacDonald on the most swinish possible grounds. It is only when this sucking up to Jews and centrists failed to save him from the charges of racism that he began to associate with White Nationalists, who were all too willing to cross his palm with silver. Frankly it is disgusting that the donations of White Nationalists are being sluiced into the pockets of this opportunist.
One, a trust fund would be a wonderful idea, in the fulness of time.
Until that moment, sending money to counter-currents, each and every month, without fail, is something we can do today.
A trust fund is simply a means to an end. That end is already being defined, in good part, by the work of counter-currents. That is where we start with our money today, and more money, tomorrow.
Two, I read about Cobb in the New York Times. I don’t visit other WN boards, so I have no idea what his cohorts might have to say, nor do I care. Two quick thoughts:
One, this demonstrated the importance of organization over disorganization.
One lone man, in the middle of Nowhere, can accomplish, well, very little, indeed. One lone man, in the middle of Nowhere, in a house with no job, no income, no substantial financial assets, no electricity or indoor plumbing – if I was reading the article correctly – seems to be fighting long odds, indeed. Winter is coming… literally.
In contrast, Pierce had a financial base, and solid supporters close to hand. If I read the article correctly, Cobb seems to have lost his job as an oilfield roustabout on the basis of his reputation as a White nationalist. This is a telling statement about the degree to which openly identifying as a White nationalist can destroy livelihoods, as I can testify to from personal experience.
Hence, yet again, I remind one and all of the importance of contributing to counter-currents, each and every month.
Two, speaking of organization, a Mr. Harold Covington has something called the Northwest Front, which will, in time, be part of the Northwest Republic. There are jobs there, chances to develop personally and professionally there, and you can discreetly support the Race and help become the organic foundation of the new nation.
Just sayin’.
If I had a private income, I’d start a website/private investigation service that shows where leftist journalists and activists live, what the demographics of their neighborhood are, where they send their kids to school, etc. There’s a mainstream conservative book, Do As I Say, Not As I Do that does this, but for high profile leftists such as Chomsky and Michael Moore.
Seems like a good starting point. I think the next recession will probably force the talentless hacks who fill the enforcer ranks of the PC machinery to seek employment at their local 7/11 stores. One thing that I’ve taken away from this is the chutzpah of the dotheads: they leave their native shithole to come leech off an alien nation, yet brazenly attack the host and demand more privileges. Although they are less intelligent than Jews, I see them working as a unit to carve out a powerful niche in the comin majority/minority dystopia. They are skillfully using PC to oust Americans from certain tech fields despite their lack of talent. Of course the industry management is delighted at a pool of cheap, compliant labor!
I’ve long been an advocate for a “Rules For Racialists: Pragmatic Principles for Realistic Racialists” approach to fighting back against anti-white equalitarian BS. Roosh is neither white (but not way off either, so I’d argue he has a stake in the racial future) nor a WN, so I’m impressed that comments on this article were able to focus on the topic of tactics rather than on attacking Roosh’s race or his exploits with white females.
As for Derbyshire, he’s come quite a long way in only a few short years. It’s true that he has been helped along more by events than by any epiphany, but the fact that money is being sluiced into his hands tells you something important about the present attitude of everyday pro-whites.
It’s a reminder that the Derb is about as low as they come. He probably enjoys accepting money from the same folks he spat on, people that are easily taken in because they have few allies and are desperate for articulate voices.
A side issue I have is a concern for animal welfare. I can’t say that I ever thought of it from a racial angle as there are cruel white people too. However, it appears that the prob;em is worse in the other nations. For example, this petition https://secure.avaaz.org/en/petition/Horses_eviscerated_alive_for_fun/?smmJFdb given further circulation in horse loving America while it won’t promote the NANR may emphasize to liberals the down side of cultural enrichment.
I am with you on that Sandy. I was reduced to tears when I read about dogs being hooked through the nose and used as live shark bait in some Asian places. (not to mention dog fights in NA) There really is no limit to the cruelty inflicted upon animals anywhere. There is a great judgement coming.
Yes it is quite incredible Rhondda. I had a quote someplace that our morals go before the economy goes – not that we will ever be perfect. Animal rights while being a bit leftish is a mostly White thing so there is some potential there. Not everyone is comfortable being a blatant racist so it is one channel to explore. Besides, it allows a kick against the pharmaceutical industry and the agricultural industry which seem hell bent on poisoning us all – regardless of race!
However, there must be other channels to explore for us to infiltrate the unions, the prisons, the victims of crimes and the student population.
Excellent point.
It’s innate for me, part of my ancestral genetic make-up, if you will. Abuse of of our natural environment (Fukushima, BP oil gusher, etc) in general, but animal cruelty most especially, sickens, then angers me to my very core. In my business travels to SE Asia I have witnessed this curious and mindless void of empathy for the suffering of animals among Chinese, Koreans, and Fillipinos.
Culpable Negroes, Latinos, and Asians need to be pictorially identified and their deeds exposed as graphically as possible, without specific verbal mention of racial identity. And any White individuals or corporate entities enabling, profiting from, or assoiciated with the non-White perpetrators should be targeted as severely as non-violently possible.
I am also infuriated by the utterly objective unemotional cruelty of massive feed lots and factory slaughter houses, a direct result of big Ag run amok and enabled by the Jew fiat money system.
Since such issues are important to a sizable base of liberal White women, we should rub their noses into the evil in which they are complicit as forcefully as possible.
(BTW, I neither overlook nor excuse the culpability of certain Whites too, such as the Spaniards who make of the slow murder of bulls a psuedo-sacred ritual)
I haven’t seen Fritz Hippler’s documentary film Der ewige Jude myself, but apparently the part showing kosher ritual slaughter is what really disturbs and outrages audiences of this film.
