   Paul Fromm has been barred from entering the US since 2015. Here’s his entertaining video detailing his very dogged efforts to enter the US:

   DHS or ADL must have ordered this inoffensive video placed in limited state.

   Hi Greg,
   My first time commenting here.
   Thanks for the work you do at Counter Currents and at conferences around the world.
   I’m not sure the best way to share information to you, the CC team and also the other intelligent fans and readers of CC, so I thought I would just comment on this post.
   You all need to go and check out Senator Josh Howleys first floor speech.
   Here is a link to a shorter “highlights mix” that is on twitter. One of the most epic speeches I’ve heard recently.

   Just in case the twitter link no longer works, the post is from “Dissident Right @populationwatch”. There is a full version which is about 14 minutes long here.

   We need to support and spread his message. This guy deserves our youtube subs at the very least.
   We must support people who represent our values, so that we can encourage more Euro-American elites like this to step up to the plate.

   Thanks

   What a good time. You can read some of my comments on the event at http://thezman.com/wordpress/?p=17469#comments. Greg told me that his favorite Smith’s song is “How Soon is Now?” Fellowship is so nourishing and encouraging. I hope to meet you all next year.

   I’m afraid no one on the populist scene has ever achieved anything by doing conferences. It just gives people a false sense of achievement. Please put Jared Taylor’s name on the ballot. 864,427 signatures, the bar of entry is ridiculously low.

   In Tennessee, only 275 signatures? Seriously, you live in the freest country in the world.

   Give the movement a focus, something to work on, apart from the buffet table.

   Waiting for the right people to show up first, that’s putting the cart before the horse. Start a campaign, lose a few times, build yourself up in the process.

   As for the Polish ban against Jared Taylor, I mainly blame his local contacts, who proved themselves totally irresponsible, and just illustrated why they shouldn’t be allowed to run Poland. But still, everyone has to think for himself. You go to a foreign country, associate with the political opposition, give public speeches at their events, and when the government makes it clear that you are an embarrassment and not welcome, you try to outsmart them by going underground, changing venues etc. How was the Polish government supposed to react?

   Once you become a measurable political entity with a real constituency, even if only at 1-2%, everything will change. The Poles will quietly lift the ban. Luck will start to happen. Magical cosmic forces will line up next to you on the battlefield. But you have to make the first step. Nothing happens if you don’t set things in motion.

      There could be no more colossal waste of time and resources than running a presidential candidate. See David Duke, the American Freedom Party, etcetera…

         Was David Duke the perfect candidate? Is the American Freedom Party the pinnacle of white political self-expression? How much money do you need for getting 275 signatures in Tennessee and running an internet campaign?

         Apparently there are quite a few people who have no problem paying for flight tickets, hotel, conference fees, etc. You also pledged some of your precious time and resources for the campaign of some Chinese guy. Why not for one of your own?

         Is 10% in Tennessee beyond imaginable? In case you run a campaign focused on a single state and get 10%, what would be the net effect in terms of media exposure, internet search trends, book sales, donations, organizing skills, influx of energetic IRL people?

            “Was David Duke the perfect candidate?”

            Duke was by far the most successful “radical Right” candidate of the last half-century in the US – not that that’s saying much. And even the modest success he enjoyed in the 1980s could not be replicated today, as his 2016 run showed.

            “Is the American Freedom Party the pinnacle of white political self-expression?”

            They’ve been doing exactly what you’re suggesting since 2010, including getting on the ballot in Tennessee. Their peak achievement is garnering 2,703 votes in the 2012 presidential election. In other words, they have gotten nowhere.

            “You also pledged some of your precious time and resources for the campaign of some Chinese guy. Why not for one of your own?”

            I didn’t. I could care less about Yang myself, since I don’t believe he has any chance of winning. But I can see why he’s captured some people’s imaginations on the Right. This isn’t Europe. America is a two-party country. Third parties can’t make any practical headway. The only hope is to try to work with one of the two major parties – which is what Trump did, but we see how that worked out.

            “Is 10% in Tennessee beyond imaginable?”

            Yes. America is a two-party country. And the Republicans aren’t going to back someone like Jared Taylor.

            “In case you run a campaign focused on a single state and get 10%, what would be the net effect in terms of media exposure, internet search trends, book sales, donations, organizing skills, influx of energetic IRL people?”

            You could possibly attract some people’s time, money, and enthusiasm – that could be better channeled into more effective metapolitical avenues that might actually make a difference in the long run, as opposed to short-term party adventures that would go nowhere.

               These are serious people.

               They may very well be, but the issue of the alleged push to impose “shariah law” is a red herring to distract from real issues, such as the actual people who are pushing for mass immigration. (It’s isn’t Islamic fundamentalists.) Counterjihadists (who are invariably obsessively and fanatically philo-Semitic) are among the worst branches of the Right. I’m not saying this woman isn’t doing valuable work, as I didn’t know her until now, but I didn’t find the specific tweet you sent to be particularly interesting.

   John, you look at the video and see uninteresting stuff, no real issues, red herrings, the worst branches of the Right, etc. etc.

   I look at the video and see a bunch of Muslims who want to take my Lebensraum, who have clear goals, a workable strategy (“we will work through the electoral process”, “we already control this-and-that town”), and faith in themselves and their God.

   They will win. You will lose.

   Bye.
