In the United States, the center-Left Democratic Party is a coalition of white liberals, non-whites, sexual minorities, religious dissenters, and environmentalists, in which the organized Jewish community is the senior partner.
All of these groups want a larger, more intrusive, more profligate government to insure the inclusion and upward mobility of previously marginalized groups: women, non-whites, homosexuals, trannies, snail darters, etc.
The center-Right Republican Party is far less diverse: 90% of its votes come from white people — disproportionately male, conservative, straight, family-oriented, and Christian white people. The Democrats are increasingly the party of the underclass and the super-rich. The Republicans are increasingly the party of the middle class. Republican voters typically want a smaller, less-intrusive, fiscally responsible government that leaves them the freedom to raise their families, produce wealth, and carry forward a nation and way of life that their ancestors created and that suits them just fine.
The Republicans are the party of the people who built and sustain America. If every Democratic voter dropped dead, we would lose 10% of our most creative people and 90% of our craziest, crookedest, and most destructive. The result would be a slightly boring but highly productive, orderly, and happy society — Switzerland on a continental scale.
If every Republican voter dropped dead, however, the country would be finished in short order, for the dirty secret of the Left is that they are parasitic on the Right. Consumption is parasitic on production; vice is parasitic on virtue; the sick are parasitic on the healthy; evil is parasitic on good. We can live without them, but they cannot live without us.
However, if you look at Republican politicians and pundits, you would think that the exact opposite is true, for they completely accept and cringingly fear the moral authority of the Left. If the Left calls Republicans “racists,” they obsequiously choose a black running mate, adopt a black child, or avow their belief in color-blind individualism. Only a few Republicans actually talk back to the Left, but most spirited response you’ll find is “You’re the real racists,” which of course does not challenge the underlying premise that racism is evil — or the deeper assumption that the psychotic parasites of the Left have any moral authority whatsoever.
The Democratic Party has no qualms about representing the interests of its constituencies. It offers upward mobility to the marginalized, and to its white constituents, especially the refractory straight male ones (especially those who happen to marry white women and reproduce themselves), it offers the promise of absolution from collective guilt for an ever-growing litany of isms and phobias by taking active part in their political dispossession and cultural degradation.
The rules of Democratic politics are simple: every group can appeal to its particular interests except whites, particularly straight white males. Whites have no collective interests, only collective guilt for the sufferings of the rest of humanity. Any hint of positive white self-awareness, much less organized white-interest politics, is stigmatized as racism, nativism, even National Socialism — and we know where that leads.
To exist, the Republican Party needs to get middle class white people’s votes. Astonishingly, though, Republicans will not appeal to the ethnic interests of white voters. But they will appeal nakedly to the crassest ethnic interests of blacks, mestizos (including outright invaders), and Jews — groups that persist in giving most of their votes to Democrats.
Republicans will occasionally “dog whistle” — i.e., make vague, coded references — to the racial interests and anxieties of whites, albeit merely to fleece them of votes, without any intention of lowering themselves by actually doing anything. The best that white Republicans can hope for is to be the indirect beneficiaries of “implicitly” white policies framed in universalist terms.
By treating appeals to white ethnic interests as simply immoral, Republicans are, in short, playing by rules dictated by the Democrats. And of course the Democrats have rigged the rules in their favor.
Imagine American politics as a poker game. Each ethnic group has a place at the table and a certain number of chips, representing its collective wealth and power. Whites have the largest stack. But every group gets to play a wild card, “the race card,” except for whites. No matter how big our initial advantage might be, if we play by those rules, we will lose hand after hand, until we have surrendered our wealth, our power, our country, and any control we might have over our destiny — or we kick over the table and refuse to play a game rigged against us.
Because Republicans insist on playing a game that they, and white Americans, can only lose, the alt-Right slur “cuckservative” has struck a chord and gone viral. “Cuckservative” is a combination of “cuckold” and “conservative.“
“Feed me, Seymour!”: Tiny reed warbler feeds enormous cuckoo chick
Republicans and the Left are decrying the term for being inherently “racist” and sexual, and they are right. It is also inherently anti-Semitic.
The core of cuckoldry is a violation of one’s genetic interests. When the cuckoo lays its eggs in another bird’s nest, tricking them into incubating and feeding its young, it is advancing its genetic interests at the expense of the cuckolded birds. (The first act of a cuckoo chick is to murder the birds’ real offspring.) When a man is cuckolded, he is tricked into caring for another man’s children instead of his own. The male horror of cuckoldry is older than the human race itself. If a widowed lioness has small cubs, a male lion will kill her cubs before he mates with her, rather than provide resources for another lion’s offspring.
Republicans are cuckservatives, because they are more interested in pursuing the interests of non-whites than of their own white constituents. This implies that only white Republicans are cuckservatives. Jewish Republicans are quite successful at pursuing their own ethnic interests, as are other non-white Republicans.
Male lions kill the cubs fathered by other lions rather than take care of them.
There are three main reasons why Republicans have consented to playing by the Left’s rules.
The most superficial reason is that they fear bad press, social shunning, or a face-to-face encounter with a foul-mouthed, finger-jabbing, hyper-aggressive Jew. (For instance, the infamous Michael Hart incident at the 2006 American Renaissance Conference.)
Another superficial reason is simple corruption. Republicans have been bought by Jewish donors who wish to secure Israeli interests at American expense. Republicans have been bought by agribusiness lobbies to keep the borders open to Mexican invaders. This is just outright betrayal of white interests, nothing more.
A third and deeper reason that Republicans refuse to play the white race card is they think that their ideals of liberty and limited government are universal rather than tribal anyway. So there’s just no upside to tribal appeals (beyond a little dog-whistling in a tight race). Yes, Republicans are aware that forswearing white identity politics puts them at a disadvantage, at least in the short run. But since they believe in the universality of their principles, they believe that non-whites can eventually come to embrace them too. Republicans think they just need to show sufficient openness — and suppress all manifestations of white ethnocentrism — to bring them around. Until then, they are willing to pander to non-white ethnic interests, but merely as a means of converting them, not as an admission that ethnic politics and unassimilable minorities are here to stay.
But liberty, capitalism, and constitutional government are not universal. They are tribal values of whites. If they were valued in Asia, surely they would have been practiced there. If they were valued in Latin America, they would have been practiced there. If they were valued in the Middle East, they would have been practiced there. If they were valued in Africa, they would have been practiced there. And white countries would not then be swamped by immigrants from these countries.
The rest of the human race does not aspire to be like white people. The immigrants coming here do not wish to assimilate our values and contribute to our civilization. We are not even trying to assimilate them anyway. Instead, they are just coming here to take the fruits of our civilization. They don’t want to be us, or be part of us. They just want to dispossess us.
For nearly 1,000 years, the Chinese practiced a horrific form of torture called lingchi, the death of a thousand cuts, in which a victim was tied to a wooden frame and then slowly cut to pieces. The full torture took three days and involved 3,600 cuts. (Lingchi was abolished only in 1905. The Chinese skin animals alive to this day.) To prolong the agony, the victims were given opium so the pain did not cause them to lose consciousness or die too quickly.
The grandiose notion that white tribal values are actually universal, and that the rest of the world will become part of our community — without them or us even trying — is nothing but an intellectual opiate that numbs white Americans as we lose our wealth, our power, our homelands, and our futures to non-whites slice by bloody slice.
The cuckservatism controversy is an important opportunity for White Nationalists. The concept has caught the eyes of the mainstream. It perfectly encapsulates our critique of the Republican Party. Wherever the term is being discussed, we need to be there, and we need to follow the lead of Michael Enoch and Hateful Heretic of The Right Stuff, who are stating our case in simple, sincere, moderate language.
This is an opportunity to awaken white Americans to four facts.
- First, whites are being demographically displaced because of political policies, but this can be reversed with different policies.
- Second, white political values are tribal, not universal. Thus they will perish if our tribe perishes.
- Third, the Republican Party is playing by rules that are designed to destroy the white electorate and the party itself. Thus we need an alternative.
- Fourth, no matter how much Republicans try to placate the Left, they will still be called racists. They are already doing the time, so they might as well do the crime.
So far, the Republican response has been standard stupid party. The true believers are reiterating their faith in universalism and stigmatizing the term as racist. The prigs are also claiming it is anti-Christian and pornographic, so don’t go there. The tinfoil hat crowd are accusing us of being Democratic infiltrators.
Still, it is slowly dawning on Republicans that they are in a deep hole. We are leading the best of them toward the light. But some of them will die in that hole. Let’s make sure our race does not die with them.

“Third, the Republican Party is playing by rules that are designed to destroy the white electorate and the party itself. Thus we need an alternative.”
Enter Donald Trump. I realize he’s a Republican in name, but you can’t compare him to, say, Santorum.
A fine piece, but this line:
” If every Democratic voter dropped dead, we would lose 10% of our most creative people and 90% of our craziest, crookedest, and most destructive. The result would be a slightly boring but highly productive, orderly, and happy society — Switzerland on a continental scale.”
can’t help bu make me think of Orson Welles in The Third Man:
“After all it’s not that awful. You know what the fellow said – in Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace – and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock. So long Holly.”
Coincidence?
The “on your knees” line is a very popular one-liner with bigtime radio and TV preacher Charles Stanley.

I point this out, because this is the good ol’ down home White family values stuff the anti-cucks want to preserve.
I think I understand. To secure the blessings of liberty we shall think more of our self interests, like the black. To establish justice we should hoard what we hold most dear, like the Jew. To protect our posterity from looking like a muddy horde, we shall stoop down and wallow in the filth before they overwhelm us. To insure domestic tranquility you advise counting heads instead of mustering ideas, like the social scientist. What good is winning if we become the enemy?
If freedom is destined to die, we can not save it by sheltering it. Like any flower, it must be in the sunlight, not secreted in some Magian cave. I too sense the weeds crowding in. But they often die in the shadow of a towering bloom. Our chore is to nurture liberty for the time nature allows us. I agree that a farmer should shoulder blame when he has neglected to erect the proper fencing or perform necessary weeding, but we can not blame him for all fruit spoiled by vermin.
The Experiment is certainly headed for an iceberg. And you are not offering our Edward Smiths an alternate course but a reservation on a lifeboat. You are warning that Roman soldier to leave his post for flows of death are coming. Do we bolt like a nag or exhibit the class of a thoroughbred? Acting contrary to self-preservation elevates us from the animal. A cuckold may be a fool, but he is at least a man.
Can you please clarify what the Hell you are talking about, and how this relates in any way to Greg’s article? I don’t see anywhere that he is saying we should “wallow in filth.” And for what reason, exactly, are you defending cuckolds? It seems like you are just trying really hard to come across as poetic or something.
He’s trying to convince us that playing by rules that will destroy us is morally sublime.
You’re going to die in that hole, Ken Kuck, and your sense of moral superiority will end with you.
Verily, I will admit, I am much perplexed and glamoured by the dulcet tones of your gleanings, O Ken Kuck. Though quickening admiration I will readily admit. While most of our commentators are content to remain mere soup stains on the vest of time, you strive to engrave your thumbprint on the eyeglass of eternity. A pig in a poke? I think not! For when all is said and done, the man who remains hoist to his own petard is not to be trifled with. Too true. Let this be a lesson to us all.
“A cuckold may be a fool, but he is at least a man.”
Real men aren’t cucks.
There is nothing moral or morally superior about either American conservatives or American liberals, or to the parties they correspond with – the Republicans or the Democrats. Both of these groups ignore certain needs that their people have. The Republicans tend to ignore environmental issues and the needs of lower class people, while the Democrats tend to not repsect things like local autonomy – and both groups ingore racial and ethnic issues. I don’t claim to be an expert on American politics and I know I am oversimplifying some things here for the sake of brevity. But, I don’t understand how any intelligent, sane person can think any one of these two political groups is morally superior. They are both frauds and unwilling to truly serve their people. You are worried about becoming the enemy, Ken Tuck? You already have become that.
Greg Johnson :
” A third and deeper reason that Republicans refuse to play the white race card is they think that their ideals of liberty and limited government are universal rather than tribal anyway.”
This is a shrewd insight into the minds of the System’s Conservatives: they truly believe in the universal validity of their ideas and their ideals. It was with this confidence in the universality of their ideals and principles, that European missionaries plunged into the dark heart Africa, that led them to attempt the conversion to Christianity of the heathen Chinee (Chinese), and to enlighten the denizens of British India. All vanity and all in vain; otherwise, of course the British Empire might still be with us. Ouch, did I hear you Americans say ?
I come from libertarianism, and I have to say that libertarians are great complicits in spreading falsehoods about race, etc.
They are into the welfare-state-has-ruined-afroamerican-family BS.
No, it hasn’t: I’m no fan of nanny states, yet the truth on this matter is not so conveniently PC.
Well said.
Very well presented.
Always enjoy the ‘naturalistic’ metaphors and examples; the Lion and cubs, was superb allegory.
Good Fortune…
Great comment Greg and great job on the Daily Shoah
I am so laughing. You guys did an atomic wedgie on the GOP. Bravo.
>> “implicitly” white policies framed in universalist terms <<
It's interesting to listen to Hannity, Limbaugh, and Levin. They studiously avoid reference to whites with distinct interests. Rather, they will always phrase their policy ideas as being good for generic "Americans." It's assumed that all races will thrill to the ideas of the Founders, though there's some willingness to talk about Muslim unwillingness to assimilate.
The GOP, of course, twists itself in a knot to appeal to Hispanics and wets its pants over making inroads into the black vote such that it will only go 93% to Dems instead of 95%. Not sure about the exact percentages but you get the point.
Outstanding analysis….
Quite a splendid piece of writing about the power of this wonderfully blunt and ribald little term.
To borrow from our friend Ben Wattenberg, the success of cuckervative is “heartening news of an almost transcendent quality.”
Indeed. It is the turning of the tide. In the short term there will sites called, The Daily Cuck. In the intermediate term, people at Republican Conventions with signs saying “Cucks for Huckabee” and “Jeb Cuck for President”. And in the long term, course entitled “A History of Cuckservatism”.
My spell check is still rejecting the term. That must change.
There’s already a Wikipedia article about the meme, though it’s biased and inaccurate. There are no references to the alt-Right. However, this could be fixed.
Racism is a term created by the left for one reason and one reason only: to disqualify any legitimate political interest held by whites, in order to normalize and moralize our political and cultural extinction.
Anyone who tosses that word around is an absolute hypocrite.
Conservatives are only as good as the left allows them to be.
Ken Tuck get off your knees and start giving a fuck, ya cuck…See? I too am a poet and I didn’t even know it.
–“Feed me, Seymour!”: Tiny reed warbler feeds enormous cuckoo chick
The tiny reed warbler feeds the cuckoo because “the differences within these respective groups are greater than the differences between them!” Har de frickin’ har har!
http://eginotes.blogspot.com/2015/07/on-cuckservatives.html
So, mid-summer 2015 is the time of the “cuckservative” fad, the newest “movement” paradigm leaving all and sundry breathless and depleted. I will say though that I essentially approve of the term. Ridicule is a powerful weapon, usually ignored by the stuffy Right and instead constantly wielded with efficacy by the Left. The fact that the System is getting all hysterical about the term cuckservative is evidence that this term is effective and is hitting the mark.
But to avoid being the latest “movement” fad, it needs to have staying power. In the short-term, those who use the term need to ignore System counter-attacks. In the long term – what happens when the novelty of the cuckservative slur wears off, and the Beavis-and-Butthead elements in the “movement” get bored and wander off to play with some shiny new toy? It is then that more mature elements must keep on hammering away with the cuckservative meme. The goal is to get the term cuckservative to become a permanent part of the American political vocabulary – so that when folks see the likes of a Jeb Bush, their first thought is a disgusted: “he’s a cuckservative.” Indeed, in 2016 and beyond, the term needs to be used; one can hope that as Jeb campaigns he is confronted with signs labelling him as a cuckservative, that he hears the joyful heckling that utilizes the cuckservative term with justified fervor. Further, the meme should go further: anyone who votes for, and/or otherwise supports, a cuckservative is a cuckservative themselves. That should be the “scarlet letter” of conservative politics. And if the 2016 election boils down to a cuckservative vs. Hillary, the Right must not follow the usual script of “let’s rally around the viciously anti-White Republican to beat the viciously anti-White Democrat.” No, that must end. For godssakes, we’ve reached a point at which the socialist Jew liberal Democrat Bernie Sanders is farther to the right on immigration than most of the so-called “conservative Republican” candidates. So, use the term cuckservative throughout the entire campaign, and beyond.
Two more points:
First, this episode shows that the “thin membrane” separating far-Right groupuscules and the System can be breached, with far-Right memes “infecting” public discourse if done correctly. Griffin must be horrified.
Second, when the cuckservatives cry that “the racists” are not like us, they have, in part, a point. The “movement” can be divided between the conservative moderates (which includes peripheral groups like System paleoconservatives, Gamesters, and anti-WN HBDers) and the radicals. The former group – the Buchanan, Taylor, Francis, Auster, Sailer, Derbyshire (*) – do form a continuum with conservatism, but the latter group – including national socialists and other anti-conservative elements – do not. The radicals do need to continuously underscore their complete differentiation from conservatism, whether genuine conservatism or the cuckservative variants.
*Although the HBDers can be viewed as cuckservatives themselves, valuing Jews and Asians over Whites and, in some cases, engaging is miscegenation.
I can’t help but to think that the cuckservative “phenomenon” has been a lost opportunity.
I am also disappointed, but I suppose edified, by how it has highlighted our core weaknesses.
The reaction on our side has been mostly a lot of open and foolish backslapping with a few mere defensive or overly general explanatory (if accurate and well written) articles.
What should have followed, once we had the brief attention of the mainstream media, was a volley of articles that explained in detail specific ways in which conservatives are cucks. One subject per article. Some of it could have resonated with the more justice minded on the left.
Subject examples:
Israel’s too cozy long-time military relationship with China, to include open sharing of weapons secrets.
The history of mass immigration in the USA
I stopped reading your comment in mid-sentence and deleted everything that came after it. I am sure you mean well, and I am sure that you do not realize how pretentious you seem. But we are all working very hard here, and frankly I do not appreciate it when a first-time, anonymous net personality drops in to give me a to-do list. So how about we try getting this relationship off on a better footing. You write some of the articles you propose, and send them to me. Or if you can’t do that, send $1,000 to [email protected], and we will find people who will do the work.
Also telling is the charge by the Liberal Bulls – as if eager to protect the honor of their cucks. But of course they despise them as much as ever. In reality these Masters of the Slur recognize a winning meme and are trying to smother it. The last thing they want is a real Conservative party to emerge.
This was a great article. I think that the “death of a thousand cuts” is appropriate at times, and would be just what the doctor ordered for Lindsay Graham and much of the GOP leadership.
“I think I understand. To secure the blessings of liberty we shall think more of our self interests, like the black. To establish justice we should hoard what we hold most dear, like the Jew. To protect our posterity from looking like a muddy horde, we shall stoop down and wallow in the filth before they overwhelm us. To insure domestic tranquility you advise counting heads instead of mustering ideas, like the social scientist. What good is winning if we become the enemy?”
This is apparently that European love of principle. If we lose the ideals “justice” and “liberty”, we are no longer us. This commenter does not understand that genes make us. If we violate those sacred principles, we are “wallowing in filth”. Thus, in his eyes we can’t act selfishly and pursue our interests like other races. He can’t see that “its the DNA, stupid”.
“If freedom is destined to die, we can not save it by sheltering it. Like any flower, it must be in the sunlight, not secreted in some Magian cave. I too sense the weeds crowding in. But they often die in the shadow of a towering bloom. Our chore is to nurture liberty for the time nature allows us. I agree that a farmer should shoulder blame when he has neglected to erect the proper fencing or perform necessary weeding, but we can not blame him for all fruit spoiled by vermin.”
Oh crap, he is going on about principles again, this time its “freedom”. Our responsibility is to sacrifice ourselves for this other sacred principle.
“The Experiment is certainly headed for an iceberg. And you are not offering our Edward Smiths an alternate course but a reservation on a lifeboat. You are warning that Roman soldier to leave his post for flows of death are coming. Do we bolt like a nag or exhibit the class of a thoroughbred? Acting contrary to self-preservation elevates us from the animal. A cuckold may be a fool, but he is at least a man.”
A cuckold is a male, but not a man in the sense of a male who is manly and masculine. A man’s essence is part animal, and the same laws of nature apply, namely the prime directives of “survive and procreate”. This is what man was created to do, not to be cuckolded and allow his DNA to go extinct. Exhibiting the “class of a thoroughbred” means marching proudly down the road to extinction, carrying banners of sacred principles. To me, this is insanity.
I love the concepts of truth, beauty, and goodness, but they belong to whites. They were created by white men and exploited by an eastern cult to encompass everyone. Who but whites can truly recognize them?
