Remembering Wyndham Lewis
(November 18, 1882-March 7, 1957) -
Victor Hugo famously said that nothing can stop an idea whose time has come. Unfortunately, that also applies to bad ideas.

The US midterm elections have come and gone and not much has changed in the world because of them. The consensus among my esteemed colleagues here at Counter-Currents is that the GOP’s lackluster performance reflected its lackluster nature. Aquilonius’ devastating rhetorical body blow sums it up best: “What is the one thing that is less cool than a dude who cut off his own frank and beans? Answer: A stuffy Republican in a suit droning on about the free market and political decency.” Indeed, the GOP performance was uninspired, uninspiring, formulaic, and above all, boring. Call me old-fashioned, but a revolution against an evil ruling class should be at the very least mildly entertaining. (more…)

Při své nedávné cestě do Evropy jsem pobýval v mnoha různých hostelech. Typický scénář: přijedu už později večer, vejdu do temné noclehárny, vklouznu do jedné z prázdných postelí a následující ráno se probudím a zjistím, že na postelích kolem mě spí vícero mladých žen. (more…)

I am not in the least bit susceptible to depression, but I have to admit that as Tuesday night wore on, I found I was getting depressed, and on Wednesday I was really down. If you watch conservative media, you were expecting a red wave, and there was even talk of a paradigm shift as the GOP was projected to attract new constituencies: suburban whites, blacks, and Latinos were supposedly gravitating to the GOP.

Remembering René Guénon:
November 15, 1886–January 7, 1951René Guénon was born on November 15, 1886. Along with Julius Evola, Guénon was one of the leading figures in the Traditionalist school, which has deeply influenced my own outlook and the metapolitical mission and editorial agenda of Counter-Currents Publishing and North American New Right. (For a sense of my differences with Guénon, see my lecture on “Vico and the New Right.”)
