Dear Reader,
Like all promoters of ideas that go against the current, Counter-Currents and North American New Right depend on the donations of readers and friends to survive and to grow.
Your contributions will go to pay honoraria and stipends to writers for Counter-Currents and North American New Right.
Over the years, I have seen many talented writers appear, only to disappear a few months or years later.
At first, they are sustained by sheer idealism. But after a while, they learn that idealism alone cannot sustain them when they are hit with temporary feelings of discouragement or competing personal obligations.
By paying writers, we can sustain their interest and enthusiasm through the ups and downs of life. Our goal is to foster talented writers and keep them in the fight for the long haul.
You can make two different types of donations:
- First, you can make is a single donation of any size.
- Second, you can make a recurring donation of any size.
Recurring donations are particularly helpful, since they allow us better to predict and plan for the future. Please use the secure online form below.

You can also become a monthly donor through Hatreon.
“Hatreon” is like Patreon but for the “haters” who are being purged from Patreon as part of the vast ongoing deplatforming of white advocates and dissident Rightists. Hatreon helps creative dissidents enjoy steady, predictable incomes from patrons who make monthly pledges of support. Just go to my Hatreon profile page and make a pledge. (If you need an invite code, use this one: MAJDRZUDYWLG.)
Hatreon is run by a dissident Rightist like us. Hatreon is highly ethical and takes only a very small percentage of donations to cover their costs. I very much want Hatreon to succeed, so please sign up for an account today. Help Hatreon get off to a strong start — and help Counter-Currents stay in the fight.
You may also send check, money order, or credit card payment by mail. Just print out our donation form in Word or PDF. Our address is:

PO Box 22638

Counter-Currents also takes Bitcoin.

Patrick, what do you think about Henry de Lesquen?
His website is: https://henrydelesquen.fr/
He seems better than the Front National. Can you interview him or write something about him?
Thanks
Madrid-Barcelone. Je reste convaincu que c’est une confrontation irréelle et inutile entre deux concepts neuronaux et abstraits. La désintégration est typique de l’âge des Ténèbres et se manifeste en meme temps par Solve et Coagula. La réponse n’est ni l’un ni l’autre, elle réside dans la vision impériale que tout comprend, connecte et sublime et que, il y a plus de soixante-dix ans, fut proposée par l’avant-garde italo-allemande. Le reste est une foutasie.—Gabriele Adinolfi
Supposing this is true—and I believe there is much to recommend it—the question is still how we can arrive at that “vision impériale” in our day. If one believes it can be attained through the institutions and regimes now existing, I should very much like to see some indication of the road along which this might be realized. If on the other hand these institutions and regimes are rather precisely that which blocks and confounds the “vision impériale,” then in order to attain that vision we must first break apart the status quo.
This is pretty much how I feel: “La réponse n’est ni l’un ni l’autre, elle réside dans la vision impériale que tout comprend…” When I listen to Nasrallah speaking to the Ummah, I’m struck by his cred-ibilty and prowess. He’s more than a man with a vision. He’s a man with a record that even the most ardent Zionists respect.
Nasrallah is aware that he needs the throw-weight of Lebanon to be effective. So rather than completely formalizing his independance, he works with Lebanese Christians and Secular Arabs. They don’t share his religious vision, rather they share his political vision: Zionist expansion must be stopped. In this way, Nasrallah refuses to let the perfect be the enemy of the good. Also, a religious man, he thinks in terms of the generations past and generations to come. He has the metaphysics, the governing warrior metaphysics, that Europeans sorely lack. In this light, I don’t think much of Catalan independence based on Enlightenment principals. It’s just further breakdown. Further isolation. Further atomization.
But to be the gem of Spain, the birthplace of artists with a mission? That’s something quite different than hoarding dollars on Spanish Riviera. And keeping one’s Euro-trash beholden to local customs in a boutique state.
Yes, the “vision impériale” is lacking.
