L’Alternative Right n’a pas d’essence, mais elle a une histoire, une histoire qui commence et finit avec Richard Spencer. L’histoire comporte quatre chapitres.

D’abord le terme « Alternative Right » fut forgé en 2008. Puis le webzine Alternative Right fut lancé le 1^er mars 2010 et dura jusqu’au 25 décembre 2013. Lorsqu’elle fut créée, l’Alternative Right faisait simplement référence à une alternative au courant majoritaire conservateur américain. (more…)

Young men who are both healthy and sane must often keep in check the sexual predator that lurks inside of them. For some, it’s easy. For others, however, it’s the hardest thing they can do. But they do it, not merely because not doing it violates multiple laws and taboos and would violently separate one from society, but because they appreciate the inherent value in human life. (more…)

A new style of meme has cropped up on our side of YouTube known as “Little Dark Age.” The gist of it is that there is a series of videos which play the catchy end of the song “Little Dark Age” by MGMT in the background as typical images of modern degeneracy are flashed on the screen. Midway through the video, which is usually a couple of minutes long, the song picks up, and nostalgic images of past Western glory replace the modern images. (more…)

Savitri Devi (1905–1982[1]) was born Maximine Julia Portaz in Lyons, France, of English, Italian, and Greek ancestry.[2] She was a highly gifted and eccentric child. Early on, she embraced vegetarianism and animal rights out of a strong aesthetic revulsion to slaughter and other forms of cruelty to animals. (more…)

“War is a bad thing, but peace can be a living horror.” — Ray Bradbury, “The Concrete Mixer”

I trust I am not alone among Counter-Currents readers in my appreciation for the late Ray Bradbury, my favorite author as a boy. Though Bradbury is often categorized as a science fiction author, his stories are just as suffused with magic and myth as they are with the futuristic technology that so repelled and terrified him.

I attended Catholic high school at Cardinal O’Hara in Broomall, Pennsylvania from 1975 to 1979. I’d estimate that at the very most, 20 priests taught there while I was a student. At least six of them — Father Jones, Father Giliberti, Father McCarthy, Father Cannon, Father Gallagher, and Father Close — subsequently faced multiple allegations of sexually abusing schoolboys there.

Fighting racism requires knowing what it is — not an easy task . . . [R]acism is a Schimpfwort: a term with pejorative connotations, whose very use inevitably tends to be more instrumental than descriptive. To call someone a racist, even if the charge is intellectually dishonest, can be a useful tactic, either in successfully paralyzing or in casting enough suspicion as to curtail credibility. — Alain de Benoist, “What is Racism?” (more…)

Electoral politics, at least as traditionally understood, has become meaningless for the most part. The 2020 Presidential Election and the recent failed California gubernatorial recall vote make it abundantly clear that, as a result of a combination of voter fraud and demographic change, we cannot win this struggle simply by filling in a bubble on a piece of paper and then proudly sporting an “I voted” sticker, (more…)

An article by Aquilonius was recently published here at Counter-Currents, ”Is America First Cracking Up?” While I am a regular viewer of Nick Fuentes’ nightly show, America First with Nicholas J. Fuentes, I don’t pay much attention to the broader America First Extended Universe, so I was a bit slow in getting up to speed on the most recent drama going on there. (more…)
