« Vous avez simplement peur des femmes fortes ! ». Je ne peux pas compter le nombre de fois où j’ai entendu cette accusation lancée contre des hommes qui ont rompu avec leur petite amie après s’être fatigués de leurs postures et bouffonneries féministes.

Je le reconnais : j’ai peur des « femmes fortes ». Il y a de bonnes raisons de ne pas les aimer et même de les craindre.  (more…)

Les Nationalistes Blancs pensent que notre race s’éteindra si nous ne créons pas des patries blanches homogènes où les gens de notre peuple pourront se reproduire et accomplir leur destin, sans subir l’interférence d’autres races. Pourtant même les Blancs qui trouvent cette idée séduisante pensent que la création réelle de patries blanches serait impossible ou immorale. (more…)

It’s not often that a book gives you an idea for dystopian fiction; the last time I decided to write a dystopia, the idea came from a Pulp song.

Counter-Currents rests on your shoulders too!

The Current Year 2015 has been Counter-Currents’ best in terms of traffic. More than one million unique visitors came to Counter-Currents in 2015.

So far, in 2015, of the more than one million unique visitors to the website, 324 have given donations. That’s a lot of free riders on the Atlas-like shoulders of very few individuals. (more…)

December 25, Christmas Day, is also the birthday of one of the most exotic and courageous thinkers ever to stride across the American political stage: Lawrence Dennis.

Now, there are three basic facts everyone learns about Mr. Dennis at the outset.

One: he was a leading Right-wing economic and political theorist of the 1930s and ’40s—an American fascist if you will. (more…)

Overview

The European New Right (ENR), born in 1968 in France, is the only school of thought that offers a comprehensive philosophical alternative to both the Left and the mainstream Right; not a political alternative or a cohesive popular movement, but a body of thought, an interpretative framework with distinctive concepts, major texts and authors pointing to a solid intellectual alternative to the establishment.

Philippe de Champaigne, “Saint Augustin,” 1645-1650

2,587 words

The key problem of our age is disconnection from truth. This takes several distinct forms. The first, and most obvious, is the prevalence of lies. As everyone knows, modern, western civilization is founded upon lies about human nature, culture, and history. The most significant of these – underlying, in one form of another, most of the rest – is the equality lie; the myth of human equality, which is the chief myth of our age. (“Myth,” as most of my readers know, can have a positive or a negative connotation, as there are salutary myths; here, obviously, I am using the term in its purely negative sense.)  (more…)

Yule is the midwinter festival celebrated by my ancestors and by Germanic neo-pagans today. Midwinter is a time when much of nature seems to die or to depart. The trees are stripped of their leaves. The birds abandon us, flying off to warmer climes. Bears, badgers, chipmunks, and squirrels hibernate. Water freezes over. The earth is covered in ice and snow, so that nothing can grow. The air is so chilled that when we are out in it for too long, death becomes something tangible, and we rush inside.  (more…)

The term “folk horror” is a relatively recent invention that can be applied to a wide range of artistic creations, not all of them belonging to the horror genre. It was popularized by the 2010 BBC TV documentary A History of Horror where the term was used to describe three horror films: Witchfinder General, The Blood on Satan’s Claw, and The Wicker Man.
