Counter-Currents
We were honored to have Jim Goad take the podium at the 2023 Counter-Currents Conference in Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas, where he spoke on what the Right should do to avoid those pitfalls that can lead to the movement dividing rather than unifying white people behind the cause of white preservationism. See below.

Excellent. I was in complete agreement, until the very very end. One cannot simply blame hostile elite Jews for our plight. Even assuming an antisemitic demonology, they had to have some ‘clay’ to work with. Race replacement propaganda has never had the slightest impact on me or most of my extended family. It was white liberals and leftists who eagerly imbibed the replacist propaganda, and who provided the votes for the candidates who actually legislated the replacist regime. The sheer irrationality, moral as well as historical and political, of “embracing diversity”, especially when this is done in Europe – and in particular, in those nations (eg, Sweden) which never even had a colonialist past, like England and France – suggests that such embrasure arises from some deep evolutionary defect. That whites in Ireland, Italy, or Canada, with no traditions of racial slavery, slobber over diversity just like Americans, with our very different racial history, clearly indicates some underlying basket of traits that whites as a race possess in common.
Why is this relevant to Goad’s talk? There is increasing recognition among even ‘normiecons’ that liberals ruin areas under their political control; sometimes then move to more desirable (ie, conservative-run) places; but, as often as not, bring their same shitty liberal values with them! They seem incapable of recognizing that they’re the problem. My friends in places like Idaho and Florida tell me they don’t want Californians moving there (the implication of course being that the latter are liberals who will bring liberalism to their more conservative states).
When Goad says white preservationists shouldn’t “punch white” he’s correct in terms of the other demographic metrics he lists: age, occupation, region, religion, economic class. Ideology, however, is different. Maybe we can and should exempt divisive issues like abortion and LGBTQ; maybe even economic ideological divides (though it should be noted that, in today’s America, support for leftist economics is mostly support for nonwhite welfare takers, antiwhite bureaucrats, and politically-connected, usually woke, corporate beneficiaries – not for plain, poor white folks). But the essence of today’s Left is diversitism. Diversity-mongering now, I believe, exceeds even socialism as the lodestar of the Left (witness the subtle transformation of the always evil Bernie Sanders: he once understood that illegal immigration was harmful to American workers, but, recognizing that race-replacement now supersedes aiding the working class, he has gone silent on the issue, native workers be damned).
If I’m correct in my assessment of current “political anthropology”, WPs absolutely must separate ourselves from white leftists. Just because the latter might still get stomped in an antiwhite pogrom doesn’t mean they’re our allies, or even potential ones. More likely, they’re the main people standing in the way of what we desire in terms of racial separation and WP. I think Kipling once opined that “the strength of the wolf is the strength of the pack”. But some wolves hold back the pack. The WP movement, though it must become astronomically larger than at present if it is to achieve any of its real world goals, would be more effective if smaller and more cohesive than it would be simply trying to incorporate as many “objective” (but not prowhite) whites as possible.
This was an excellent response. I agree. It has been a bone of contention for me that even if we had a white ethno-state, we’d still have a plethora of social pathologies created by white liberals.
Would those people not knuckle under once they imbibed enough propaganda about the new normal and how virtuous it was? I agree that until we have a lot more control over the sources of indoctrination they will continue to be a menace.
That’s not a bad point. Because being a “sheep” is so repugnant to many of us, we tend to forget that the sheep can actually move in the opposite direction, potentially to our benefit.
(What a pathetic way to live.)
It’s indeed a danger. That’s why in the future, we can’t let them be in charge of anything important in which they can misuse their positions to wreck society.
Demanding that White women be spoken of respectfully is fine, but don’t call it “the gender issue.” Don’t say “gender” when you mean sex.
“Gender” ideology is some of the most stupid and destructive ideology you can have. It also fails the race riot test. Nobody cares if you identify as “non-binary” or “two-spirit”; that’s all nonsense. Are you White? That’s real. Are you a man or a woman? That’s real. Don’t even start this “gender” nonsense.
Thanks ever so much for the attempt at pedantic scolding, but the word “gender” was around long before feminist academics tried to separate it from the word “sex.”
Thank you for a truly great speech.
According to Google N-gram ‘gender’was barely used until the late-fifties. It was then and still is familiar to linguists as denoting whether a word, in most European languages but only rarely in English, is masculine, feminine or in some cases neuter. It had a role in the language but a very minor linguistic one. However it was an obvious word for the paedophilia- and communist-adjacent elite institution based sexology community to commandeer and use to start bamboozling people about what was normal and what wasn’t , which they duly did, coincidentally, in the late fifties.
My personal preference is to push the use of ‘sex’ as most people see this as a binary category whereas many are thoroughly confused by ‘gender’. Most forms now ask for ‘gender’ with often three or more options. They would have a lot more trouble getting away with this if the category were ‘sex’.
Does any of it matter? Possibly not, but I personally feel a chill down the spine whenever I hear the ‘g’ word.
Wise words Mr Goad. I’m off out now being midday in the UK, that little narrative has given me a wee pep in my step. Class. Cheers.
This was very good. Except for my opinion expressed in response to Lord Shang’s post above, I agree wholeheartedly. I’ve always thought these binaries were limiting and simplistic. You, of course, point out that, worse than that, they are undermining the potential for white people to cohere as a group.
Nice job.
There is a time and a place for fellowship — and a time and a place to debate politics, tactics, optics, and for honest critique. We need to do both.
The bottom line (and completely absent of snark) is that General Lee’s bronze statute got toppled and melted down. The Communists, Zionists, and Darkies are only going to get stronger unless we Whites figure it out somehow.
In honor of Mr. Goad’s call for White unity, I’m going to kick off the frosty season with a 50 dollar contribution to Counter-Currents. It’s not much but it is from the heart.
🙂
Thank you so much. It is much appreciated.
I almost got jumped last night,at 1:30AM.
Twelve hours later,it is dawning on me,my life was 25 seconds away from becoming something resembling the Aurbery situation in GA,even if only forced to properly legally protect myself.W
We need to encourage segregation while conducting a White version of Atlanta Louisville and Indianapolis.
White people,choose 1 large metropolitan City,converge,make it our own. From there,do 2 more cities in succession,50-150 mile radius of each other.
