The Counter-Currents Newsletter, November 2019
Posted By Greg Johnson On In North American New Right | Comments DisabledDear Friends of Counter-Currents,
November was our best month ever in terms of traffic, with more than 240,000 unique visitors, which is approximately double our traffic in May. There has been a steep and steady rise in traffic since June, and this is not merely due to a few viral articles, although those certainly helped. There are also structural factors at work:
- YouTube censorship is causing dissidents to leave that platform looking for more vital ones. This is only going to increase in December.
- Twitter is increasingly dead due to censorship, so dissidents are leaving that platform as well.
- The establishment continues to push multiculturalism, globalization, and the Great Replacement, driving people to look for alternatives, and more and more of them are finding Counter-Currents.
If you are a new reader, please tell us how you discovered Counter-Currents and why you come back. Just leave a comment below.
1. Our Top Stories in November
The biggest event of November was my arrest (that wasn’t an arrest) and deportation (that wasn’t really a deportation) from Norway. The Norwegian security services, based on unchecked (and embarrassingly false) allegations from my political enemies, ordered my detention on the grounds that if I were allowed to speak at the Scandza Forum, other people might do bad things. Arresting people for what other people might do is really a new low in political correctness. It should alarm everyone, because anyone can be arrested on such grounds.
If the aim of the arrest was to suppress my ideas, it backfired bigly. I was the number one news story in Norway for several days. Readership at Counter-Currents went way up, especially from Norway. We now have a lot more readers than before, in Norway and around the world.
Here are some articles on the Oslo affair:
- Greg Johnson, “Anarcho-Tyranny in Olso [2]“
- Greg Johnson, “The Norwegian Police Security Service’s Order to Detain Greg Johnson [3]“
The other big story of November was the so-called Groyper war against Conservatism Inc., an encouraging development.
