Dear Friends of Counter-Currents,
Future historians may look back at 2020 and declare it a pivotal year in history, like 1989, when Communism began its collapse in Europe; or 1914, when Europe threw itself into the abyss; or 410, when Rome was sacked; or even the birth of Christ, somewhere around the year 1. 2020 may be the beginning of the end of multiculturalism — and the beginning of the beginning for ethnonationalism.
We need to do our best to make that happen. We can’t just count on the impersonal biological and social forces that are destroying multiculturalism before our eyes. We have to put our shoulder to the wheel of time and urge the process along. We also need to steer it toward something better by offering a real alternative. So whenever you have an opportunity to redpill people about the ongoing violence and insanity, just keep repeating the mantras:
“Enough is enough!”
“We can’t live with these people.”
“We don’t have to live like this.”
And, most importantly:
“If white people had a country of our own, this would not be happening.”
Begin with the recent video of a black man running up behind a randomly chosen white man and bashing his head with a brick while his fellow savages titter moronically.

That could be any one of us, as long as we have to share our countries with blacks.
But we don’t have to live this way. We can separate. We need a racial divorce.
To get that racial divorce, we need to increase racial polarization and force a decision to solve the problem permanently by going our separate ways. Blacks and the Left are doing a great job of increasing polarization for us, although we need to keep adding fuel to the fire. Forcing a decision will be even harder because it goes against the grain of our current leadership and our political system as a whole.
Carl Schmitt, and before him the great Spanish reactionary Juan Donoso Cortés, recognized that an essential feature of liberal democracy is the evasion of decisions. What is a decision? A decision is required when you have a choice between mutually exclusive options, meaning that you have to take one or the other. You can’t choose both, and you can’t just choose not to decide. A real decision is the forced choice between mutually exclusive options.
Liberals evade decision for two main reasons.
First, liberals are optimists. They think that the arc of history bends toward a world without conflicts and thus without politics and hard political decisions.
Second, liberals are afraid of power and everything that comes with it, especially personal responsibility. Decision requires that someone is invested with the final authority to decide, as well as the responsibility to bear the consequences. Liberals, however, think that we can be ruled by laws, not men, and when decisions need to be made, they prefer to make them collectively, hence the endless talk. Or they create complex “checks and balances,” which are simply a way of treating responsibility like a hot potato, to be handed off to someone else. Or, to change the metaphor, it is like a game of musical chairs, where the last man standing loses by having to make a decision and stick by it.
America has now suffered more than three months of anti-white rioting by blacks and Communists. As the death toll mounts and economic costs soar into the billions, the country’s leadership either supports the lawlessness or is afraid to do anything about it. They are afraid of the mob and afraid of the press. But they are more afraid of their own consciences, since they have accepted the fake moral absolute that nothing is worse than racism toward non-whites, especially blacks.
Election-year pandering to black voters is surely a huge part of it too. Thus America drifts deeper into crisis, held hostage to the whims of the stupidest, most violent, and most sociopathic element of the population.
Every time a black criminal encounters the police — and there is a neverending supply of black criminals — we risk more riots. Furthermore, as the state backs off from enforcing laws against blacks, black criminals naturally respond to the opportunity by committing more crimes.
If you want to destroy a society, just make it a taboo to arrest black people. They’ll do the rest.
Eventually, a decision will have to be made. But by then, the damage to the nation may be irreparable. Furthermore, by driving decision and responsibility out of the political process, liberals just create a situation where ultimate decisions are made by unaccountable people outside the political system entirely, i.e., our disproportionately Jewish oligarchy.
For the duration of the crisis, race-conscious whites must:
- Stay out of direct confrontations with blacks and Communists. The establishment wishes to push the absurd lie that we are responsible for the violence. Don’t give them any help doing that.
- Do everything we can, aside from direct confrontations, to heighten the tensions and present our workable ethnonationalist alternative: complete separation from blacks.
- Do everything we can to force a decision. A serious country would have crushed this insurrection long ago. The US has crushed such insurrections. But the underlying problem was allowed to remain: blacks and whites cannot live in the same society. If Trump finally cracks down, normies will breathe a sigh of relief, and the problem will be allowed to fester until the next insurrection, when whites are an even smaller and weaker part of the population. The only solution is complete racial separation, and the more people who demand it, and the sooner, the better.
We also need to re-elect Donald Trump, not because of what Trump is likely to do, but because:
- Trump’s reelection will heighten polarization even more.
- Trump will not strip whites of our first and second amendment rights, which will leave us freer to organize.
- Trump will not intervene to overturn national populist regimes in Europe.
Yes, it would have been nice to have gotten a wall.
Yes, it would have been nice if Trump had taken serious steps to combat electoral fraud and tech censorship.
Yes, it would have been nice if Trump had turned America in the right direction.
But that’s up to us now. We can expect no help from anyone in power. Whites have no representation in Washington, no friends in office. Trump, however, will do less to impede us, and his very presence will polarize and delegitimize the system better than we ever could. Trump gives us more crises and more opportunities to triumph in the end. Four more years of Trump will get us closer to the ethnostate.
1. Our Webzine and Traffic
August was a very strong month in terms of traffic, with more than 321,000 unique visitors, which is our second-highest month ever. We are steadily regaining ground lost to censorship starting in May by Google (pardon my language, since “Google Is a Dirty Word“).
The continued racial conflict in the United States is driving people toward us. Only Jews and white nationalists really understand what is happening in the US today, and only white nationalists will tell you the truth about it. When people have questions that only we can answer, eventually they find their way here.
This Google malarkey comes on the heels of Counter-Currents being de-platformed yet again from a payment processor back in March. We remain without an easy way of taking credit card donations. This is a serious economic blow. There is information on how you can help below.
The good news, though, is that more of our people than ever before are now receptive to our message, and we need to increase both our activity and also our commitment and moral intensity if we are to reach them and change their minds. Thus it is important for you to support Counter-Currents, now more than ever, not just in spite of the hard times, but because of them.
In August, we added 83 pieces to our webzine, including five podcasts. Our Top 20 articles and full stats are below.

5. How You Can Help Counter-Currents
Counter-Currents, like most promoters of dissident ideas, depends upon the generosity of our donors. In 2019, around 500 donors made it possible for nearly two million unique visitors to find their way to Counter-Currents. If you want to join the people who make Counter-Currents possible — or renew your support — there are several ways you can help out.
Credit Cards
In 2019, Counter-Currents was de-platformed from five credit card processors. We applied to a couple of other processors but were turned down. In the process of applying, we discovered that Counter-Currents has been put on the so-called MATCH list, a credit card industry blacklist reserved for vendors with high rates of chargebacks and fraudulent transactions. This is completely inapplicable to Counter-Currents. Thus our placement on this list is simply a lie — a financially damaging lie — that is obviously political in motivation.
In March of 2020 we again lost a credit card processor. We are looking for new ones and will keep you informed.
Entropy
Currently, the only way you can donate via credit card is through Entropy. Just go to our Entropy page and select “send paid chat.” Entropy allows you to donate any amount from $3 and up. If you include a comment or question, it will be read and discussed in the next episode of Counter-Currents Radio, which airs every Friday.
Money Transfers
If your bank does free money transfers to other banks in the US, please contact me at [email protected].
Gift Cards
Gift cards are a useful way to make donations. Gift cards are available with all the major credit cards as well as from major retailers. You can either send gift cards as donations (either electronically or through the mail) or you can use them to make donations. Simply buy a prepaid credit card and click here to use it. If you can find a place that sells gift cards for cash, they are as anonymous as sending cash and much safer.
Checks and Money Orders
Sometimes the old ways are best. The least “de-platformable” way to send donations to Counter-Currents is to put a check or money order in the mail. Simply print and complete the Word or PDF donation form and mail it to:
Counter-Currents Publishing, Ltd.
P.O. Box 22638
San Francisco, CA 94122
USA
[email protected]
Thank you, Boomers, for keeping your checkbooks, envelopes, and stamps. There are youngsters reading this site who have never written a check or put a letter in the mail.
Bill Payment Services
If you wish to make monthly donations by mail, see if your bank has a bill payment service. Then all you need to do is set up a monthly check to be dispatched by mail to our PO box. This check can be made out to Counter-Currents or to Greg Johnson. After the initial bother of setting it up, you never have to think about it again.
Crypto-Currencies
In addition to old-fashioned paper donations, those new-fangled crypto-currencies are a good way to circumvent censorious credit card corporations.
- Click here to go to our crypto donation page.
- Click here for a basic primer on how to get started using crypto. Do not, however, use COINBASE. COINBASE will not allow you to send money to Counter-Currents. (Yes, it is that bad.)
The Counter-Currents Foundation
Note: Donations to Counter-Currents Publishing are not tax-deductible. We do, however, have a 501c3 tax-exempt educational corporation called The Counter-Currents Foundation. If you want to make a tax-deductible gift, please email me at [email protected]. You can send donations by mail to:
The Counter-Currents Foundation
P.O. Box 22638

USA
Remember Us in Your Will
Finally, we would like to broach a very delicate topic: your will. If you are planning your estate, please think about how you can continue helping the cause even after you are gone. The essay “Majority Estate Planning” contains many helpful suggestions.
Remember: those who fight for the Golden Age live in it today.
Thank you again for your loyal readership and generous support.

Saw that video too. Shocking and how brazen to film it! Also, a black teen looked for a white male to stab in another story, the trump supporter killed in Portland(by a white but same ideology), and of course canon Hinnant, a small boy shot. There have been some others of questionable ideological purity, but who knows. This is being provoked by the media, needless to say, and they are ultimately responsible.
I propose whites start wearing armor. We could develop marketing schemes and make it stylish. There’s a masculine sexuality in a chain mail shirt, don’t you guys think? Or a steel Viking helmet with horns.
Great essay except the appeal to vote Trump and thinking in terms of ‘rights’ preserved or otherwise. Whites need to separate in their hearts and minds and support all movement toward separation even if full, physical separation is not yet possible in the daily lives of White folks. No pro-White should expend the slightest effort re-electing Donald Trump. It’s wasted effort. Until Whites are organized to have political leverage (in both the common and Schmittian sense of that word), Whites are nothing to our enemies. There is no peace. There is only deterrence.
Utterly absurd. Greg pointed out the salient points on why Trump MUST be re-elected.
I don’t see your logic.
Merely voting for Trump takes little effort, and it does have real rewards, as mentioned above.
I understand the frustration, and this election certainly won’t be as exciting, nor a Trump victory as heady as that of 2016. The idea that these urban terrorists, who for months have reduced cities to murderous hell-holes; the idea that an entire media, political, and academic establishment, whose minions have for four years subjected the country to endless tirades, investigations, and hysterical anti-white crusades; the idea that if Biden and Kamala were to be elected, all of these people would think they’d won and would lord it over the rest of us, smirking as they proceeded to further disfranchise us — that’s too much to take. Dr. Johnson’s point about keeping our endangered speech protections under Trump is also a strong one and obviously has important implications for sites like this one. We have a responsibility to do what we can.
As I see it, a vote for Trump is a vote against BLM and Antifa, and all the rioters and ‘kindly, peaceful protestors’, which alone sends a message. And, as Dr. Johnson notes in his post, if Trump is elected, the polarization continues, and Whites will continue to seek out a message that contradicts BLM et al. Look at how our numbers of readers has increased just during the past six months (March 2020 – present). How did those numbers increase? People sought US out, since we don’t have a way of doing any ‘advertising’ for our views, due to censorship. Voting the Democrats out of office will just turn up the flame under the stewpot — for free.
Greg:
In terms of getting financial support, what about trying the same site that is accepting donations for Kyle Rittenhouse, when Gofundme banned them? The site is https://www.givesendgo.com
Did you try them?
KR is a no-brainer for any site of moral decency. But that site is Christian – which might mean they would have a problem with CC.
Trump his RNC speech outlining supporting for “school choice” of forcing blacks into white areas via schools, leapfrogging the need to build housing projects. A vote for Trump is a vote for more dead whites killed by blacks. There’s no way either party should be legitimised by votes. Every single white person should stay home. That would make it as clear as day how illegitimate the system is.
That is a remarkably obtuse comment on so many levels. First, while I oppose school choice (mainly for the reason you adduced), the Democrats hate it even more. It ain’t gonna happen (even if GOP retakes the House – which also ain’t gonna happen, possibly ever again). It’s just a PR stunt – but one which can have very positive consequences (eg, there is some evidence that FL Gov DeSantis’s margin of victory may have come from an unusually large number of black females who voted for him based on his purported support for school choice).
Second, there are a thousand reasons why Trump is better for rightist whites than Biden. Do we need to go over all of them again??! GJ touched on a few above, and they’re enough (I’m glad he’s on board now; he was rather fickle earlier in the campaign season).
Third, you cannot possibly truly think that more whites will be killed under Trump 2 than Biden 1. You can’t. No one is that dumb. A Biden victory says OPEN SEASON ON WHITES to every savage in the country. A Trump victory says NOT SO FAST.
Fourth, you sound like a teenage libertarian. “There’s no way either party should be legitimised by votes. … That would make it as clear as day how illegitimate the system is.” Are you serious? Who thinks like this anymore, in stale terms of “legitimacy”? This is about POWER – the power of life or death for White America. Elections mean power. You don’t fight, you die. Same as in the jungle. “Oh, but I’m making a statement that one day will inspire people to …” – what, exactly?
For normies, we are light years from thinking the system is illegitimate. Do you know any normies? I do. They don’t think the system is illegitimate; they think it’s UNDER ATTACK by those (communist antifa, BLM supremacists, and their Democrat/media enablers) whom they are increasingly recognizing as their ENEMIES. If the Democrats win, that will be a huge deflationary signal that there are MORE ENEMIES THAN PATRIOTS. Normies will then turn even more inward, attempting to find life satisfaction in muh faith, muh family, muh buddies, muh liberty, muh career, muh guns (for a little while longer), muh fishing boat, muh golf clubs, muh Grand Theft Auto – anything but America and their race’s declining place in it.
If Trump loses, the struggle continues. But it will be much harder than if he wins.
It is open season on Whites right now. Trump is letting it happen because he doesn’t care. Voting Trump says you consent to this. If you do not even have the self respect to tell arm flailing Zion Don to take a hike then I don’t know what to tell you. All the galaxy brained takes in the world won’t change the fact that if you vote Trump, you will be indirectly responsible for more white people killed by Presidential Apathy if he gets in a second time. “First do no harm”, which means stop propping up an anti-white candidate.
You simply don’t understand politics or history or the present uber-antiwhite-radicalism of the Democrats (and how Senile Joe is simply their short-term stooge).
I will write something on the theme of why white preservationists MUST support Trump right before the election, at least to make my own position clear (though Robert Hampton has already done an excellent job here at CC on that very topic; read his articles if you haven’t already).
Has everyone noticed the huge jump in “Unique Visitors”, “Number of Visits” and “Pages Viewed” from March 2020 forward? There is your “Beginning of the Beginning” — White people are seeking answers that neither the media or either party can give. Blacks, as represented by ‘Black Lives Matter’, have put on a mind-numbing show of riots, burnings, lootings and general mayhem in the streets — not to mention shooting each other, and continually confronting police, leading to more shootings — and all this has really caught White attention. Counter Currents is in the exact right place at the right time! And with the right message! All without participating one iota in the violence. These past six months may be seen as some of our “Finest Hours” and indeed “The Beginning of the Beginning”. The numbers show that people are seeking us out and reading our messages.
Greg Johnson is spot on….The Leopard skin War…
My heart goes out to the noble and purist principles expressed by ‘Buttercup’ and ‘Hamburger Today’. I remember being a little kid back home (I can’t write where ‘back home’ is for safety reasons) and hear the Anarchists express similar ethical political principles. The problem is that most of them were executed. This is not the way that Lenin or Stalin proceeded in order to push through their revolution. We have to distinguish between strategy and final goal, vs. tactics to get there. To say that in this coming election there is no difference between a civic nationalist and a globalist would be akin to saying that there is no difference between rape and consensual sex –there’s penetration in both cases, but that’s about it.
A victory for Biden would mean a total 100% (sorry the tautology) tech censorship: this site and others alike would disappear; we would not be able to advocate for our ideals. It would also mean the end of the second amendment. Once that they take away our guns, how would we fight and defend our future Homeland?
Furthermore, the democrats already know that they will lose. So they are already preparing war games in which they will contest the election on the basis of mail-in-voting which Trump will challenge and will encourage the West Coast to secede. This will be our opportunity to ask for our own share of territory.
Having given my point of view on why I agree with Mr Johnson, I would like to comment on two points where I disagree.
(1) ‘A serious country would have crushed this insurrection long ago’. This is exactly what the Left is teasing Trump to do. Then they could accuse him of being a dictator for going over the Constitution. I believe that he is right in waiting until governors call him in and then he can act in accordance with a Federalist Constitution. Further, social psychology studies clearly indicate that riots and instability turn voters to the Right, not the left, so this chaos is working in our favour.
(2) ‘tech censorship’. He can bitch, but he can’t act. He doesn’t have the votes in the Senate to pass anything against tech censorship. The great majority of Republican Senators are neo-cons + a few libertarians, so they believe that this should be sorted out by the invisible hand of the government. Further, a lot of them are on the invisible take ($) of big tech.
I commented on this before and I’ll say it again: Trump will win; he will win by a landslide; the Left will secede.
Cheers!
This is something many overlook.
But it is the genuine truth? Certainly he has postured in a friendly way with the likes of Hungary, &c., but is it not true that various federal agencies including the intelligencia (I concede that the actions of alphabet agencies are perhaps not something that can be pinned on a president, perhaps doubly so for an intelligence network that works against him) have done the classic American foreign meddling with their propagandas and assorted tripe? Romania, for instance, I believe was bombarded with globalizing propaganda about diversity and integration or somesuch. I cannot put too much stock in Trump’s posturing when the bureaucratic butt-business practitioners can just go around his back. Perhaps revealing the national disgrace of our elites and their tangled machinations in this regard is the true benefit of such positions, for us at least.
Quote:
We also need to re-elect Donald Trump, not because of what Trump is likely to do, but because:
Trump’s reelection will heighten polarization even more.
Trump will not strip whites of our first and second amendment rights, which will leave us freer to organize.
Trump will not intervene to overturn national populist regimes in Europe.
This is a such a dumb take on so many levels it’s hard to know where to start. It’s unworthy of an otherwise intelligent site like CC. I notice the Daily Stormer is pushing the same moronic line.
Where to start?
Trump’s re-election may highten polarization but so what? To what end? More white people killed by antifa or jailed by the FBI? It also lulls whites into a false sense of security that someone in power is on their side and acting on their behalf when the opposite is the case. It’s time to drop the pretense that voting for the right-liberal representatives of zionist oligarchy in the Republican party is “good for whites”, somehow. What a laughable concept. The opposite is the case, just look at the record from Reagan on.
As for Trump somehow being the protector of first amendment rights – this is deranged. Do I need to even say why? For anyone who’s been in a coma for the past couple of years, Trump has done absolutely zero re tech de-platforming which is the 21st century equivalent of being being thrown in the gulag. Oh yeah and Trump has also stood by while people have literally been thrown in the gulag for political “crimes” (James Fields, the RAM guys, the NY Proud Boys, there was another guy just the other day whose name I forget, the list goes on).
As for second amendment rights – I admit I know very little about Trump’s record here. Oh except that he has allowed “red flag” laws under which political dissidents have been stripped of those very same rights. And if anyone thinks the AR 15 owners of America are going to get together, rise up and overthrow ZOG it’s never going to happen. Again, this is delusional.
As for the “nationalist-populist” regimes in Europe – who do you mean exactly? I guess Ukraine, Poland and Hungary. Well they are only tolerated in so far as they oppose Russia and ZOG is doing it’s best to shove globo-homo down their throats so their days are numbered. Plus these “nationalist-populist” regimes are largely fake and not what they seem. Hungary less so I will admit. I could go on at length but to give just one example, there was an excellent article on the Occidental Observer a few months ago explaining at length how many of these “based” Eastern European countries are mass importing large numbers of third world immigrants for cheap labor. While their own young people flee to Western Europe and/or fail to reproduce. And don’t think that gay pride parades are not just around the corner in these “nationalist populist” paradises – they are, thanks to Netflix, the oligarchs and the most pro-LGBT president ever (yes, that’s Donald J Trump).
And do I need to even mention the “Make Israel Great Again” agenda, and Trump’s spectacular achievements in this area? No, I don’t think I do.
The fact that any nationalist or “dissident right” website can actually still be supporting Trump in 2020 is mystifying and laughable. And downright sickening.
There is another possibility: Pelosi could become acting president if election results are delayed past Jan. 20

Has anybody seen OBL lately ?
Greg, how would you feel about the creative distribution of flyers or pamphlets specifically advertising Counter Currents, left in coffee shops, libraries, etc. (ala J.T.C. gospel tracts)?
(Bolder individuals could even hand them out, at post office branches, for example.)
For uniformity, and to avoid misrepresentation, you could create PDFs to print at home like Hundred Handers does.
I’d be willing to distribute/surreptitiously place them myself, and I know a lot of others would be too.
Failure to support Trump is objectively anti-white.
Fortunately the number of white nationalists who have allowed themselves to be convinced otherwise is almost nil.
Even so, if they cannot bring themselves to do the right thing, they should stop countersignaling the majority and train all their efforts on delegitimizing the Enemy.
Greg Johnson’s analysis is spot on, for an academic he’s truly a rara avis. A hundred years ago most academics would have agreed with him and many would have done so in public. Now our universities are just lonotomiizing facilities churning out identikit brain-dead marxists. Only the very bravest, the most intelligent and the most dedicated survive the de-humanizing process and go on to oppose it – Professor Kevin MacDonald being another notable example. Many of the best students – the future leaders of our nations – despite going through the motions of doing the required course work, get their REAL education on-line from websites such as Counter Currents. Vital work that will bear fruit, incalculably crucial for much of it being in the long-term.
“stupidest, most violent, and most sociopathic element of the population”
I couldn’t agree with this characterization of African Americans more. When it comes to following the law, respecting the rule of law, and just generally cooperating with people, all non-white immigrants, including Africans and Afro Carribeans, are more like whites than they are like African Americans, yet most of them support the BLM and the criminal culture they promote. They are siding with criminal scum against whites.
Apart from a few nice women, old men, and “nerds,” most African Americans are uncooperative, stupid, and bellicose. They can’t convincingly blame their poverty for their wayward ways because most Hispanics are similarly poor but don’t commit so many crimes or treat whites like trash. African American apologists blame slavery for their bad behavior, but slavery hasn’t made Afro Carribean immigrants into such dirtbags. The problem is that the most degenerate, uncooperative people in Africa were enslaved by more cooperative Blacks, sold to Arabs, then whites, sent across the northwest passage where the weakest died, winnowed of their best by Carribean slave owners, and the remaining group– the worst of the worst — were sent to America to become the African Americans. Add two generations of welfare boosting the fertility of the worst and cap it off with two generations of exposure to toxic anti-white media and degenerate culture, and you get BLM.
