The reality of the Great Replacement is relentless. If we want to win, we have to try new things and new strategies. I have prepared a multi-media project to convey this: the Great Reconquista Challenge.
We are all AMATL (A Man Appointed To Liquidation). Big media, big money, and big corporations push the Great Replacement. We know it is wrong and that it is destroying our communities and our language, replacing our culture, and destroying our gene pool. But we are absolutely not in a position to do anything about it.
We can do something about ourselves, however. If we‘re not in a position to change the world, we can at least change ourselves. The world as we know it is heading for collapse. It’s up to us to decide where we stand in the days leading up to it: whether we will be strong, intelligent, have resilient communities, grow food, know how to use weapons, organize people, and be able to survive without the support of corporations. We can influence all of that. First we take back our body and soul, and then we take back our Fatherland.

Fulfill the Greek ideal of kalotogathia! If we let things run free, if everyone eats what they want, most people will have dyspepsia and become overweight. If most people think as they want, they will believe in a lot of nonsense and conspiracy theories propagated by the mainstream or alternative media. We need true information: a healthy diet and to take care of our physical health. We need a role model worth following. We don’t want to simply passively watch. What’s more, we ourselves need to become that role model for those around us. There is no other way.
The Great Reconquista Challenge is a multimedia project: Every 14 days, a point will appear on Odchod’s Facebook page. Odchod is a euroskeptic Czech political association that has long criticized the European Union’s direction from patriotic positions and has organized its own events and demonstrations, and regularly participates in the Patriotic Meeting at Příčovy Castle. If you join the challenge, you can add a photo of yourself doing the challenge under the corresponding point. The more photos you add, the more it will motivate others to perform better. Reconquista’s six-month challenge is meant to lead to a healthy body, a healthy mind, and a natural predation and will to power. The Great Reconquista Challenge starts on January 1, 2022.
We cannot influence the Great Replacement now, but we can influence the chaotic world that comes after it — and this is exactly the path that the Great Reconquista Challenge is following. We are the futurists of tomorrow, and we are the titans of the new world!
- Body Challenge: Exercise at least three times a week for 10 minutes, and once a week give yourself a bigger challenge — bike, skate, run, swim, or hit the gym. It’s important to stick to it, as you’re exercising not only your body, but also your will! The Challenge will appear on Facebook on January 15, 2022.
- Nutrition Challenge: Eat at least one piece of fruit or vegetable every day. Try to maintain a good diet and skip sugary and fizzy drinks. Don’t skimp on food; it won’t pay off. Try to eat good-quality food. The Challenge will appear on Facebook on January 29, 2022
- Health Challenge: Visit a nutritionist and find out what your body is lacking and try to solve it. Maybe you’re just missing a few minerals, maybe you need a change in your diet, or maybe you’ve got a particularly difficult health problem and you need a complete lifestyle change. The Challenge will appear on Facebook on February 12, 2022.
- Mind Challenge: Read at least three times a week — a wise article, and at least once a week read a book. This is very important for your self-development. When you read books, make lists of the most important things. Use a pencil to underline directly in the text what caught your attention. Try writing a review of the book and publishing it online. The Challenge will appear on Facebook on February 26, 2022.
- Forest Challenge: Visit an open landscape or forest at least once a week. Experience the feeling of being a Wanderer or a Forest Rebel. It is very important to know the local landscape well. The Challenge will appear on Facebook on March 12, 2022.
- Research Challenge: Learn about plants, fungi, rocks, and/or animals. Improve your knowledge of the natural world and then pass this on to your family and friends. It’s a nice interest. The Challenge will appear on Facebook on March 26, 2022.
- Crafts Challenge: Through your knowledge, or knowledge gained from books and the internet, try to create something yourself, preferably from natural resources. There are no limits to your imagination. It can be, for example, homemade soap, homemade syrup, honey, marmalade, herbal liqueur, preserved fruit, etc. Over time, this interest can grow into a regular business, freeing you from working for someone else and from the toxic world of corporations. The Challenge will appear on Facebook on April 9, 2022.
- Planting Challenge: Try growing something or preparing for it in your living space. If you don’t own land, help a parent, friend, or acquaintance with his garden, or consider buying a small garden, it’s not expensive. It is important to try to become at least partially independent and occasionally leave your apartment or house to experience life outdoors. The Challenge will appear on Facebook on April 23, 2022.
- Creative Challenge: It is not enough to merely receive information and experiences. In order for the body and mind to be in balance, it must also give back. Try something artistic: draw, sculpt, try woodcarving, or start writing. It’s important to bring out the artist in you. It will develop a part of your personality. The Challenge will appear on Facebook on May 7, 2022.
- Support the Scene Challenge: Once a month, support a nationalist writer, clothing designer, magazine creator, musician, woodcarver, painter, farmer — whatever. Buy something directly from the. You’ll be supporting the highest-quality creators in the scene, and with your support, the scene itself will grow and people will be able to pursue smaller businesses. Your interest will certainly please the creators. The Challenge will appear on Facebook on May 21, 2022.
- The Sexuality Challenge: Stop watching pornography altogether. It only makes you a servile and passive consumer, not to mention a loser, and corrupts your sexuality, leading to addiction and the slow extinction of your inner beast. Better to indulge your own sexual fantasy with your girlfriend, female lover, or wife. The same applies to women: Indulge in your own sexual fantasy with a friend, lover, or husband. If you don’t have a partner, try to get acquainted. There are plenty of black metal concerts, pin-up meetings, pagan gatherings, hot rod events, or other pro-white activities. The Challenge will appear on Facebook on June 4, 2022.
- The Solidarity Challenge: Buy only from retailers/companies/businesses and producers from your own country. It is important to support domestic and local production. If this solidarity grows in your neighbourhood, it might be possible to escape from the multicultural society. Take care of everything yourself. It can become a project like the Afrikaner town Orania in South Africa. That should be our main goal: to bring together capable, intelligent, and independent people and involve them in our projects. The Challenge will appear on Facebook on June 18, 2022.
- Self-Presentation Challenge: Have your girlfriend, friend, or a professional photographer take good-looking photos of you, either in a historic setting or in nature and present these photos on social media. It’s important that nationalists present themselves differently from how the mainstream media depicts them. The Challenge will appear on Facebook on July 2, 2022.
- The Challenge of Silence: Don’t speak if you are not asked. Learn to be silent when no one wants your opinion. Try to live by the ancient laconic phrase; speak in a blunt, concise way. The Challenge will appear on Facebook on July 16, 2022.
- The Ecology Challenge: Recycle what you can and reduce waste. Buy local food without packaging where possible. A friend of mine even recycles old building materials, both reinforced cement concrete and brick. You can also organize a garage sale, or sell or give away these items. I’m sure they will still be of use to someone. The Challenge will appear on Facebook on July 30, 2022.
If you complete the challenge, don’t forget to reward yourself with something — preferably something of value and that you’ve wanted for a long time. You deserve it.
I will appreciate it if people would spread this announcement on their own social media or websites, as well as translate it.
Thank you,
Ondřej Mann

This post is a great springboard for creativity and seeing how we can present White Nationalism to the public from a whole new angle. We really need to get together in small, creative groups, of present ourselves as something other than ‘political fanatics’, which is how the Lefts seeks to present us — up to and including terrorists, which I am sure is not how most of us think of ourselves. Hiking groups, artists collectives, even horse-riding groups can get us together in a whole new angle. Searching for your familial ancestry is another important path to follow. Let your imagination go free, but don’t forget your initial reason for being White Nationalists in the first place. A whole lot of good ideas here.
That’s a good point! We need to target our propaganda at young people and the media close to them. Through creativity and extra-curricular activity we can get the best, active, thoughtful and creative young people. When I went to high school, it was all mediocre and uninteresting people. I met the best students in art, judo and swimming.
Here is a comment from TOO:
{I mail woke anti White businesses pro White literature. I also use post paid envelopes that come in junk mail to mail back pro White literature all over the country for free. Never miss an opportunity to be a thorn in our enemies side.}
Here was my response:
This is rather brilliant. I’m stupidly always throwing out those pre-paid envelopes (although when I get them from leftists, I have been known to stuff their propaganda back in their own pre-paid envelopes, just so they waste the postage). May I ask where you get or download the pro-white literature? Actually, what we should do is crowdsource a prowhite fact sheet that we could download and then mass photocopy. Go to a Fedex or some similar copy place, and I think you can get it down to under $0.5 per copy if you ask for enough (like a thousand). I would be willing to spend $50 for 1000 fact-laden prowhite 8.5x11s which I could send out with every credit card, GOP and conservacon fundraising, and magazine subscription solicitation I didn’t ask for. This could become a nationwide copycat trend.
Original solution. But the Challenge is focused on self-creation and changing yourself for the better man. You’re my favorite commentator. Will you join the Challenge?
A very good idea, with some inspirational challenges.
My concern is the use of Facebook. I don’t have a Facebook account and don’t trust them with my data. I would appreciate any opportunity to participate in this activity with like-minded people, but I am worried that doing so through Facebook is just an invitation to Big Tech to doxx us.
I do try to keep myself private and secure online, but I fear that my efforts might not be a match for a tech giant that makes its money by extracting as much data as possible from its users.
Might this sort of thing be safer on a different platform?
I wrote the Great Reconquista Challenge as an entry for The Great Replacement Prize. I reached out to about 70 nationalist and identitarian organizations around the world. I already have 5 translations into foreign languages. The challenge is supported by the following organizations: the Czech Odchod, the Polish Szturm, the Slovak Reconquista, the Portuguese Escudo Identitário, and I am also negotiating with the Hungarian Legio Hungaria and the Bulgarian BNS. If you are not on fb, create a backup account and you can join. Facebook has the biggest reach, it wouldn’t have as much reach through say Telegram. I am aware of the risks, but everything in the Challenge is perfectly legal. Will you join the Challenge?
I am permanently banned from Facebook. Could the challenge points be duplicated into a Telegram site?
This is not the right way, if we don’t enter the public space or public social networks, we will never win and we will never attract anyone for our cause. Just being in our small groups and our safe spaces like Counter-Currents is not the solution. I put the challenge out to the world on fb. There’s no point in making a new platform, say for 2 to 5 people. That would just split the force.
I will use some of the quiet time between Christmas and New Year to try to set up a backup FB account. If you decide to do this by Telegram, I will be there.
I think it’s inevitable that you will find a few sad characters from Hope Not Hate and its equivalents in other countries joining up to try to infiltrate. The beauty of this challenge is that there’s a good chance of them finishing 2021 on our side.
That’s a good point! The whole Challenge has some unexpected consequences – it will change our self-presentation, change ourselves for the better, maybe even change someone’s life direction, strengthen the whole movement, and make our enemies miserable for the rest of the year!
I am flattered and surprised to be anyone’s favorite commenter. Thank you for such kind encouragement.
I will say two things about your challenge. First, I applaud this kind of proactive and forward thinking. Our race is being plunged into a genocidal vortex not of our majority wishing or making. While I have long advocated white nationalist territorial ingathering (ie, the project of achieving ideo-demographic {prowhite-white} majorities in at least some existing sub-national political jurisdictions [American states, Canadian provinces, French departements, etc] which, possessing their own legal authority structures, could become future secessionist units), I must admit the possibility that such separation will never happen, and that to ensure our racial perdurance, we must therefore also pursue in parallel a kind of Judaic (pre-Zionist) strategy. That is, rather than only reaching outward to secure living space via demographico-electoral conquest, we must simultaneously direct some portion of our energies towards inward conquest, to eliminate the alien intellectual dross that has conditioned us to accept as normal ethnosuicidalist behaviors, and then build up a reservoir of white men of a new, hardier ethnonationalist type better mentally fitted to endure as collective (and not mere individual) whites under future conditions of global ‘fatherlandlessness’. Your “challenge” is a worthy step down this secondary path (and indeed, one which perfectly of course complements the ethnostatist project, which I hold should still be our primary objective; like the diasporic Jews, we must discover ways to endure, even as we forever seek to realize our own White Zion).
Second, for myself, however, I already live by most of your challenge points. To point #13, however, which is surely one of the most important, I cannot consent. My personal and especially financial situation requires anonymity. More broadly, I would say that your challenge is better suited to the young than old. The young can change themselves more easily, and they (and the race) can reap the benefits of these changes for much longer. And they are the future.
For those of us getting on in years, this kind of “all-rounder” (as the old Brits used to say) or “whole man” approach to life is less important than trying to do or leave something, however slight, of lasting value. That in turn requires more intense focus and specialization. I have limited resources, especially of time, for the moment (that will change somewhat over the next decade, assuming my health holds steady). It is not necessary that I should study animals or go hiking. My character doesn’t require it; it is formed already. For those who can see The End in view, what matters is to maximize whatever skill or talent we possess, and to channel it in the most productive way. For me, that means maximizing my income in my final years (so that I might be able fully to retire, as well as to leave a respectable bequest to our Cause at death); and then pursuing in retirement my intellectual passions related to two specific micro-aspects of the broad intellectual struggle for white preservation: first, demonstrating the compatibility, indeed complementarity, of ethnonationalism and traditional conservatism; and second, critiquing the mostly unexamined assertion that white preservationism is incompatible with Christian moral theology. That’s enough work for the remaining couple of decades of my life.
Thank you for your essay and comment to me.
Thank you for your extensive commentary. I feel very much the same way. Enough young people would rather, in time, bet on the strong horse of white nationalism, active, healthy, masculine men, in a system that is falling apart. And only a minority, in a collapse, will bet on weak, feminized, deviant activists who, though they have many resources, only implement censorship and advocate the end of our civilization.
Next year, I want to run another Great Challenge, this time a practical one on how to run a million-dollar business, how to succeed in politics even with minimal resources. In the Czech Republic and Slovakia, we have successful nationalist politicians and businessmen at the top level – MPs, MEPs, and even smart mayors of municipalities. These people are opposed by big media, big capital, NGOs and often the laws of our countries. Yet they have managed to succeed in this hostile environment.
A very interesting retirement plan you have there. I look forward one day reading your thoughts on how “white preservationism is incompatible with Christian moral theology”.
I completely agree with this:
“what matters is to maximize whatever skill or talent we possess, and to channel it in the most productive way.”
I’m fairly successful with my current living situation at my age, and live a fairly comfortable middle class lifestyle. However, I recently discovered my talent for the visual arts, namely drawing and painting in the representational style. I see myself contributing the most to our cause by way of the fine arts, and helping cultivate a community of other artists with a similar beliefs. I’d like visualize the many underlying moral and philosophical principles that drive our cause and to associate them with the movement, but I’m afraid doing so will greatly affect my ability to prosper as a professional artist.
I have some solutions in mind, but I’d be curious to hear what others have to say.
Love your ideas.
However, I agree that Challenge #13 might be impossible for fear of doxxing, harassment, and retaliation from Our Fellow White People and their flunkies, the Goodwhites for Wrongthink.
I suggest that you modify it to finding, joining, and posting progress and pictures at “secular” online forums that relate to fitness and health, etc.
I suggest a Benevolence to Our Own Challenge. Especially to older, more established Whites who may be childless. Make a point of ensuring that, if we get great service from young Whites that we give them rave reviews to management to put on their records.
Find a young White struggling family to sponsor if you are childless. The closer they are related to you, the better. Establish education grants for them. Make them the beneficiaries in your will. Don’t leave it to your pets, for Pete’s sake.
I also suggest you issue a Foreign Language Challenge. Our Jewish friends know more than one language, probably the necessity of fleeing unreasonable antisemitic persecution for doing nothing to deserve it from countries all over the world. In any case, it helped them bounce back quickly enough, making them not only resilient but formidable opponents.
I totally agree. Good suggestions for the next Challenge. As mentioned in the text, we are taking our body and soul back this year. Next year, those who complete the 1st Challenge will be taking back their land. That Challenge I will be more focused on how to get funding, how to succeed with minimal funding, in both local and state politics. If we are afraid to stand up to evil because there is doxxing, internet surveillance, when will we stop being afraid? The correct answer is never. We need to be adamant about these things and operate publicly like CasaPound. Otherwise, we will not succeed.
The Great Reconquista Challenge – the first Challenge was recently posted on fb. I would be glad if you would join in.
