The Alt-Right is the Only Way to Stop the Islamification of the West

Colin Liddell

IslamicThreat645 words

A meme is going around the internet that highlights the points on which the Alt-Right apparently agrees with Radical Islam. Of course, it is possible to quibble with several of these – e.g. the Alt Right actually believes in Israel as a solution to the Jewish question – but there is a broad truth to the general assertion that makes the meme effective. 

But there are also massive differences between the Alt-Right and Radical Islam that the meme doesn’t dare go into.

The Alt-Right believes strongly in the importance of race, and realizes that many of the present problems of Europeans and the West actually stem from our racial natures – North European universalist morality and altruism, for example. Islam, by contrast, has no position on race and in fact has been one of the most deracifying forces in history with its massive promotion of the slave trade.

Islamification

Another major difference is that the Alt-Right believes in the genius and greatness of Western civilization, and a world in which science is ascendant and serves the interests of our people. Radical Islam prioritizes sharia law over everything, something that would probably inhibit and destroy science.

But having said all this, yes, there are some similarities between the two in the same way that those other memes highlighted similarities between Donald Trump and Adolf Hitler – “Adolf Hitler drinks water and so does Donald Trump,” etc. But the similarities are a little more precise than that.

Several of these similarities centre on attitudes to the related cluster of in-group preference, marriage, and sexual relations. Both Islam and the Alt-Right are ideologies that focus in their different ways on the central fact of life over death, which for humans means a birth rate of over 2.1 children per woman (and more if the death rate for female children is higher – as it inevitably is in Islamic countries).

In the return to traditional sexual relations, the Alt-Right, of course, favours more chivalry, veneration, and love for the feminine than is possible within the framework of Islam, but the comparison here carries a resonance that almost feels like harmony.

This is because the chief comparison point for both ideologies, modern liberalism (with its attendant harpy of feminism), is essentially a death cult of ever lower birth rates and the endless importation of replacements. Such a blinding aberration is capable of making two such differently shaped and coloured beasts as radical Islam and the Alt-Right appear fleetingly alike.

But there is another vast difference between Islam and the Alt-Right: in-group preference.

While both the Alt-Right and Islam emphasize in-group preference, Islamic in-group preference – with its non-racial, anyone-can-join ethos – is essentially meaningless. The Alt-Right, by contrast, is an ideological system to safeguard the growth of racial and political entities through restoring healthy and organic in-group preference. Radical Islam by contrast operates more like a virus and a cancer, growth for growth’s sake, power by any means, and an urge to spread to areas with which it has no authentic historical connection.

But there is more: Islam’s relentless focus on power is actually a weakness, as under any healthy system, the West and the rest of the world would oppose and crush its crude grasp for dominion.

The only thing that gives this evil ideology its strength is its fleeting symbiosis with the death cult of Western liberalism, and the demographic vacuum created by the sleeping ovaries of our women. Islam is therefore not the main enemy, liberalism – the soporific of sexual reproduction – is. Islam is merely its symbiotic partner and ingrate successor.

Far from being a shadow or simulacrum of Radical Islam, the Alt-Right is therefore the only thing that can ensure its death knell. Let this therefore serve as an Alt-Right fatwa and call to arms against Radical Islam and its useful idiots in the liberal left.

    Though not flattering, I think that the above comparison serves the Alt-Right’s purpose and is a tactical mistake by our opponents. It presents the ‘Alt-Right’ (whatever that is) as an alternative to Islam without simply being an ad hoc reaction to it.

    We also appear less supercilious (more ‘based’) than the authors of this meme, who imply that Islam is something backwards and crude, but cannot explain why this mindless, misogynistic movement is cutting through Europe like a hot knife through butter.

    As a WN who has had close up in the field street wise experience with what happens to any Western neighbourhood that reaches the required critical mass of young Muslim street thugs
    ( = the ethnic cleansing branch of Islam ), there is nothing I can disagree with here. It’s always the same pattern and modus operandi.
    Many off us started off following Jihad Watch and running rings around and ripping apart the Left / Islam alliance in the MSM comment threads
    It’s always good to get a reminder of what we are facing

    “Let this therefore serve as an Alt-Right fatwa and call to arms against Radical Islam and its useful idiots in the liberal left.”

    Sounds splendid. Should we shout “Bowden is greatest” before we start an attack?

    Maybe whoever made this could make another chart listing the differences between “radical Islam” and “Islam”.. cause I’m still trying to figure that out.

    Another glaring omission: the alt-right is not a religion that gives obiescience to a revealed text written by bronze age goat herders. It is an ideology that is embraced by Christans, Atheists, Asatruar or “other.” Consequently, our ideology is based upon lived experience and science instead of the dictates of desert-dwelling nomads and their murderous ‘god.’

    I doubt very seriously there is universal agreement on this list of Alt-Right characteristics at Counter-Currents.

    In particular I question whether there is consensus on the following:
    1) Hating Israel: What’s the point? It’s a Jewish nationalist country and the best solution to the JQ in the West. Suspicion of Israel, eliminating Israeli influence in foreign policy, ending reparation payments and the sharing of IP/military tech are legitimate goals, but “hating Israel” (whatever you may think of our alien elite) is counter-productive.
    2) Believing women shouldn’t have equal rights to men: I’m not entirely sure what this statement implies, but I’m guessing a significant percentage of the readership thinks this particular phrasing is a non-starter for generating productive conversations with the opposite sex. Which rights are we talking about? The rights to vote, own property, or pursue an education, or the “rights” to serve in the military, accuse men of rape after one night stands, and extract income in cases of “no fault divorce”?
    3) Want a return to the monarchy: Thanks, but no thanks. A republic with a few alterations and an elected, non-hereditary aristocarcy/commander-in-chief whose action can be held accountable to the public are definitely preferable in my mind.

    Most white supremacist dont hate Israel and Jews. We just dont want them in any position of power in our countries. They got their own country. On the Women rights: while we acknowledge sexes arent equal we do support equal rights. As for Syrian refugees we do want to help them. Just not by resettling them into our homeland. There are many differences between Alt-right and Radical Islam and author already pointed most of them out. But he forgot one very important one.
    Radical Islam enjoys support of globalist elites, but they want Alt-Right DEAD.

    Interesting that Liddell comes to the opposite conclusion than G. Johnson, as Johnson pointed out in his review of Houellebecq’s “Submission” that it´s plausible that the Right will enable Mohammedanism in Europe as the Right values Traditionalism over Race. So that’s certainly the pivotal point, and the question is still open if the Right will be able to control its traditionalist antics and put race in the center or if it will set the priorities wrongly and become an enabler of mohammadenite take-over of Europe.

  9. John says:

    Radical Islam believes the West is full of degeneracy and should take on traditional values?

    Correction: Radical Islam believes the West is full degeneracy and consequently should be ruthlessly destroyed to make way for Islam.

    It’s a difference our people would do well to take note of.
