Rethinking White Tribalism:
Anarchy in the Southern Cone
Francisco Albanese

The Southern Cone of South America encompasses Chile, Argentina, and Uruguay, which have landscapes and climates much like those of Europe and North America.
The Southern Cone is also the home of many Europeans. Although Chile is majority non-white (mestizo), Argentina and Uruguay are primarily European and predominantly Mediterranean. Whites are a minority in Latin America as a whole, and the racially destructive processes at work in Europe and North America were established here centuries ago and their effects are much more advanced.
White Nationalism does exist in the Southern Cone, although it is far too wide a category, embracing classical liberal capitalists, anarchists, and socialists, as well Creole nationalists, who seek to apply White Nationalism to the ethnic and political realities of the Southern Cone.
The faults in the praxis of the “classical” White Nationalists in the Southern Cone are well known. First, there is the absurd tendency to dream about what to do with political power before one even has enough supporters to found a political party. Second, and even worse, participating in the orthodox democratic game is tantamount to suicide, given that democracy requires homogeneity and thus the elimination or eradication of heterogeneity [1]. In the particular case of Chile, with its mestizo majority, the democratic system is designed by and for the mestizo masses, who are not about to vote away their power to a “racist” minority.
But I believe that the greatest danger to White Nationalism in the Southern Cone is the uncritical acceptance of the artificial borders and civic-national identities of the existing states. Chile, being majority non-white, promulgates a national identity as a racial melting pot. Argentina to a lesser extent does the same. Such identities may be racially pernicious, but they are politically pragmatic for the existing systems, as they preserve the existing states and discourage ethnic conflicts within them.
This is why I am attracted to the anti-statist radicalism exhibited by the Anarchism of the Right, which puts special emphasis on the development of autonomous communities existing independently of overarching state systems in order to maintain the identity and ideals of the tribe.[2] I think that tribal anarchism provides the best and most viable option for the ethnic and racial survival of minorities disadvantaged by “diversity.” It is only outside the state and that community members can interact more closely and become more dependent on each other. It is only outside the state that whites can come to understand the true essence of community and construction of a common destiny.[3]
For now, our priority must be to safeguard our identities as peoples who are numerical minorities under hostile hegemonies, to form and strengthen communities, and to understand true democratic self-government. Without the community, the individual is lost.

Argentinians are, by and large, not White. I can’t imagine the population of Chile is that much different to that of Argentina. On the plus side, there are large (in absolute terms, not relative to Brazil’s population) numbers of Whites in Brazil.

“European ancestry in mtDNA (44.3%) and Y-chromosome (94.1%) gives an estimate of 69.2%, compared to 78.6% for autosomal markers.”

From wiki, not the greatest source, but just for comparison.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mestizo#Genetic_studies
A study by the National Institute of Genomic Medicine, Mexico reported that Mestizo Mexicans are 58.96% European, 31.05% Native American, and 10.03% Africa.
Argentina’s total population is just over 42 million.
Based on Wikipedia, for what it’s worth, the racial breakdown is:
Amerindian, 1.5%
Mestizo, 8%
African, 1%
Asian, less than 1%
Arab, 4%
Jews, less than 1%
Europeans, more than 80%
Argentina is adding to its mestizo population by legalizing illegal immigrants from Bolivia and Paraguay.
Argentina’s population is whiter than the Chilean one.
Quoting Ted Sallis:
“Genetic testing can be used to get an approximate estimate of ancestral proportions, which may be of some limited utility and, certainly, can be of personal interest. But it’s a mistake to believe that such testing – at least in the foreseeable future – can provide a definitively accurate measurement, down to the exact percentage, of ancestry and “purity.””

“I was born and currently I live in Colombia. The white population here (real whites with 100 % white ancestry, NOT light-brown mongrels or half breeds) is, in a kind estimation 10% of the total population; from this 10% maybe 1 of ten is racially conscious to some degree or other.”
It’s the same or worse in the United States. According to this article cited by Amren, only 10% of our population support discrimination against Americanized Africans on religious grounds:

The Americas are much larger than Europe and the European presence is relatively new. For WNs to succeed here we must build autonomous communities and institutions under the state’s nose where feasible and despite state harassment. Autonomy is fundamental to acquiring the civil legitimacy necessary to access local government independent of mainstream politics and build the constituencies needed to secede.
Hello, Mr. Albanese, are you in Argentina? How is it different than Chile for whites? I’ve heard Chile is good.
As a first step the founding of communities such as Orania in South Africa is indicated. With a web of such communities all over the country at least white survival is secured. At the same time infiltration of the key positions of power and influence sould be strived for. How to do that? Imitate the Jews! By no means should an anti-white regime be allowed to arise.
Good article. Is this guy gonna be a regular contributor?
Self-organizing outside the system is the only thing that has any possibility of working.
You forgot southern Brazil.
We are the most neglected.

There are Mennonite colonies in Mexico, Belize, Paraguay, and Argentina. Unfortunately, 2,000 Kriols and Mestizo Belizeans have converted to Mennonitism in northern Belize. A tougher conversion process is required if one incorporates the implicitly white religious route.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mennonites_in_Belize
The jewish conversion process is pretty tough, I’m told, to minimize the infusion of gentile genes.
In addition to religion, incorporation as a business entity (Orania does this) may be desirable. Perhaps the Mondragon Co-opt in Spain’s Basque region is worthy of study?

Well, a pretty compelling case is made here that Orania-style communities (couldn’t they also be called PLE’s?) is one of our best ways of moving forward.
And yet I’m not aware of many (or any) successful examples being tried. Perhaps we need some more study of how to get them off the ground.
It seems to me that if even a small community of a few hundred people were established, the thing would get a life of its own. I think the main thing would be to be able to buy and own the land the community sits on. Ironically the example of the kibbutz/Israeli settler movement might be worth studying.
Non-religious intentional communities all seem to fizzle out in a short time. Orania is culturally Afrikaner and religiously Dutch Reformed. It would be hard for a WN community in North America to replicate that kind of “thickness.”
Intentional communities in North America have fizzled out in the past. However the non-white population increases, whites are adjusting to new economic lows, the white middle-class continues to shrink, and intentional communities were never intended for the ea$y dividend crowd.
There are advantages in incorporating religion in these communities, but imo there is one over-riding problem: the true-believing gentile elevates religion over race. Out of fear for her immortal soul the true-believer with an unmarried daughter would not see her marry one of my agnostic sons. In my experience, the so-called “racialist” true-believer would prefer to see his daughter a lifelong spinster or married to a religious anti-racist.
But then jews, both atheist and orthodox, manage it with their kibbutzim. I believe they have religious and non-religious models.
And there is the example of the Mondragon Corporation in the Basque region of Spain.
Oh can you imagine what the cities, schools, public areas, social capital, politics, government and society would be like in a White Republic? A guy can dream can’t he?
Crime would be uncommon, our schools would actually teach children the things they need to succeed, our cities would be beautiful, a gift to posterity, our population would be homogenous, nationalistic, our politics would actually administrate and govern, our government would actually represent the population because it would come from the very communities of a White Nation, and our society would be the envy to all because of these things!
“White Nationalism does exist in the Southern Cone, although it is far too wide a category, embracing classical liberal capitalists, anarchists, and socialists”
White nationalism here in Chile does not exist, unless one counts sporadical “white identity” groups of a few dozen young men, with no impact, resources or access to any positions of influence. The reason is precisely that Chile is almost completely mestizo, and only the upper classes (a negligible portion of the population) are composed of people with predominantly European ancestry. Moreover, even when this wealthy little group lives in white(r) communities, their tacit bonds are far from becoming a real ethnic self-affirmation. They just instinctively separate from native-looking people, but their primary concern is not ethnic or cultural identity, it’s just wellbeing and social status. Also, first world mass-media brainwashing and the effemination of the Catholic Church has had a great impact on the self perception of younger generations, like everywhere else.
I must say I find very curious that you mention liberal capitalists and socialists as proponents of white identity movements. Regarding socialists I can only assume you mean national-socialists, but regarding liberals, every one I know -classical or not- has a worldview built upon the unearthly abstraction of the “individual”.
I agree that self-conscious, tribalistic identities dissociated from the state are probably the way for people of European descent in countries like Chile. However, on majority white countries experiencing irreversible immigration, I would avoid all the ideological anti-state baggage, and just focus on delegitimizing the current structure favouring its reformation along ethnic-national lines.
By the way, I’m mestizo, but I support and have been following the New Right in Europe and the US for a few years now. Congratulations for getting this piece published here, if you live in Chile we could meet some day and have a coffee.
Best wishes
