I had no special access to the inner workings of the National Justice Party (NJP). The higher-ups always held me in contempt, and would have kept me at arm’s length had I attempted to approach the project. I didn’t ask. They didn’t ask.
I remained in my lane and, up until the last few months, kept my mouth shut about the ill-fated project.
I finally opened my mouth last year as Eric Striker first took direct shots at me, and then started taking absurd shots at Keith Woods, Joel Davis, and other good actors. He was mounting these attacks as an NJP officer, and using NJP as a shield when I attempted to challenge him personally, and no other officer was either stopping him or clarifying that he wasn’t actually speaking on behalf of the project. As such, I decided to go ahead and attack the whole damn project, targeting what I judged to be its most egregious flaw: Sven and Alex McNabb were making arguments on their podcasts in favor of ultraviolence against non-whites while clearly associated with NJP, surrounded by party banners. This slimed everybody involved with very real legal exposure and effectively rendered the project a rolling liability for white advocates.
You can’t do that.
These guys — who narrowly evaded the Unite the Right trial by the skin of their teeth — should have been among the first to appreciate how even tenuous association with violent rhetoric can’t be anywhere near real people doing real political activism in the real world. And here was Sven himself, the final boss of both The Right Stuff (TRS) and NJP projects, making the incriminating statements.
In hindsight, we can now gather that Sven was deliberately sabotaging the NJP with such remarks, making a point about the primacy of old-school TRS jackass radio irreverence over new-school NJP political messaging and strategy. I unwittingly assisted Sven by spotlighting this situation, one that categorically required everything to blow up sooner or later.
The project was doomed from the start because Sven doesn’t want political activism. He believes his nineties jackass radio programming is the only political activism anybody should be doing. He made this abundantly clear in a big manifesto he wrote back in March of 2018, and reiterated the exact same points in his recent drunken podcast appearance where he celebrated the NJP’s demise.

Sven’s perspective has a few obvious flaws, the most obvious of which is that TRS had already started losing its mojo before the NJP came along. The NJP was allowed to happen precisely because audience interest in the content and the quality of the content dropped off hard after Trump was elected in 2016.
The NJP was an attempt to revive an ailing project, an attempt that failed. But Sven’s narrative that the NJP caused TRS to start sucking collapses and contorts the timeline. They haven’t said anything funny in nearly a decade now, and while their pre-election memes continue to define the space after all these years, they all precede the election.
Therein lies the most concise and definitive answer about why the NJP failed. From the very outset, Sven saw it as a distraction from his enterprises that detracted from those enterprises. It was designed so that the NJP would either grow big enough to push him out if it succeeded, or would drag him down with it if it failed. He had the means throughout the entire time to pull the plug, and finally saw fit to go ahead and do so. All of the other concentric circles of failure exist as rings orbiting this failure baked into its conception. That said, I believe it will be both profitable and entertaining to explore additional problems with the project.
Too Many Chiefs
The YCombinator Project specializes in mentoring and supporting tech industry startups. I couldn’t help but consider political projects as startups in a sense, and notice parallels between their advice for nerds and my own experience with political startups. Imagine explaining on Shark Tank or to a potential investor in your web3 startup that it’s organized with several people on a board, all of whom are free to make their own executive decisions, under a chairman with no leadership inclination or experience, which all exists under the umbrella of a larger project that fully controls it and isn’t fully aligned with it (to put it lightly).
The startups in their early phase that succeed almost always have either a singular Benevolent Dictator For Life or an especially close partnership of two — maybe three — people who are all on the same page. Boards can’t lead, they can only manage, and essentially exist to do nothing more than pick a dictator and sit around doing nothing unless he needs to be replaced.
The NJP was necessarily going to fail because it was structured incorrectly for a political startup. Even if everybody involved was great, it was designed in a manner that could only result in them bumping into one another, which they inevitably did.
History Nerds
The NJP’s leadership was comprised heavily of Traditional Worker Party leadership and supporters, to the point where some perceived it as a spin-off and successor. This seemed like a bright idea, taking the parts that were working well before the Chairman went off the rails. In practice, they recruited way too many history nerds, history nerds who can’t be anywhere near real-world organizing. Striker is a classic case. I admire and respect him a great deal, but this respect was never reciprocated because he sized me up as a Christian conservative reactionary, just like Hitler’s rivals during his rise to power.
Everything is about Hitler and the Second World War with these people, people who are actively opposed to adapting general principles to a different time and place than the one they’re escaping to with their anachronistic worldview. Not everything is about Hitler, but good luck telling Striker or Greg Conte that. I had been losing the internal argument on this in Tradworker in the year or so leading up to its dissolution, with my “faith, family, folk” messaging replaced with “NATIONAL SOCIALISM NOW!”
I extract some satisfaction from the fact that they got to fully eject me, try their angle with years of runway, and attract virtually no general audience or interest whatsoever with their tone-deaf history nerd nonsense.
Traitors
Part and parcel of being a history nerd on the German side of the Second World War is that America was a rival and enemy to be opposed. There was an iconic moment in an Internet argument on Telegram a couple pf months ago where Striker, completely out of context, demanded to know whether I wished that America had lost the war. For him, this is an important question that strikes at the root, exposing my lack of loyalty to a German Chancellor who died in the last century
My answer is complicated, as I’m loyal to my nation while I also generally agree with much of what the Germans were fighting for in that struggle. I see the Second World War as a general tragedy and “bad deal,” one where millions of our best people perished, leaving the world a worse place. I believe every nation but Israel lost the war, with America’s loss taking decades to come to fruition.
But the war wasn’t exclusively about National Socialism and wasn’t pitched to the American people as such until after the war. It was largely seen then as the latest eruption in a time-honored chess match between rival European states, with America as a partner of Great Britain. They honestly, truly, deeply despise Americans and America, the lot of them. The whole project was overwhelmed with contempt for the people they ostensibly intended to lead. All of their geopolitical takes were basic bitch anti-American propaganda, casually ripping off rival powers without even bothering to reframe it in a patriotic, domestic dissident voice.
This is simply and obviously political malpractice. A nationalist project in a country should consist of nationalists for the country they’re targeting. There’s plenty of precedent in our own country for what we’re fighting for, but they’re all in on Eurasianist and Continental framing of America as a villainous nation of villains who exist to serve Jewish capitalism. If you agree with that take, then you should consider emigrating to and assimilating into a nation that you don’t believe to be intrinsically evil.
Libtards
Each error rests upon the previous error. They’re “traitors” because they’re history nerds, and they’re libtards because they’re “traitors.”
Sven and Striker especially hate rural white Americans, with both of them going on record as describing us as a vast sea of opiate-addicted, brain-dead, conservative rubes. With the Covid polarization, they went full MSNBC against the detestable rubes — rubes who were largely vindicated in their opposition to lockdowns and mandates when the dust had settled.
Like it or not, America is splitting down the middle between libtards and contards. You’re getting sucked to one side or the other. The contard side is the implicitly white side within which we can hope to operate — socially, culturally, and politically. This does not mean going along with MAGA and QAnon nonsense, but it does entail not overtly, aggressively, habitually siding with anti-white libtards against the side our people are on.
Degenerates
The NJP had a huge culture of alcoholism and partying which is antithetical to serious political organizing. The fact that Sven was proudly drunk in his only appearance to discuss this major event pretty much sums up the culture. And if that doesn’t do it, then the fact that most of the board members and rank-and-file opposed ejecting a board member for having orgies with members should do it.
Jerks
You can buy Greg Johnson’s White Identity Politics here.
With a handful of exceptions that aren’t exceptional enough to be named, they’re jerks. Even the “good ones” are jerks, not one of whom resigned for a good reason. Every time somebody would fall out of their inner circle of higher-ups, that person was denounced by the remainder as a snake. After a certain point, it’s obvious that the whole thing is one big snake pit, and Sven is the king cobra.
I have several anecdotes, but the one that sticks with me is when Tony Hovater, on behalf of the NJP, contacted me about removing a political prisoner from the Global Minority Initiative (GMI) registry. Apparently a woman in the NJP was the girlfriend of another inmate who believed an inmate had “snitched” on her own inmate. We at the GMI had given this sort of issue a lot of forethought, and decided the only way to avoid the GMI becoming factional was to have a simple policy of listing everybody whose arrest or conviction had something to do with being pro-white, without getting into the messy specifics of their relationships and personal conflicts.
I attempted to explain this to Tony. He responded by threatening to destroy the GMI project with an NJP rumor campaign against it. This was very out of character for pre-NJP Tony, and came as a surprise. He was acting on behalf of the organization, an organization that centered on infighting as a top priority. Within a few months, a third of the GMI registrants had requested removal in response to letters they received about the GMI being a scam. I finally abandoned the project because there was less interest in assisting political prisoners than in speculating that I may be a fed.
Fact Check: I am not a fed.
This is not my own story, but everybody’s story. From Keith Woods through Patriot Front and everybody else who had nothing to do with me, the NJP adopted TRS’ culture of aggressive, destructive infighting. The goal of the project was to increase Sven’s subscriber base, not to advance white interests. And when the two priorities came into conflict, the former always took priority.
Lessons Learned
There are no lessons to be learned from the rise and fall of the NJP. Either the lessons are too obvious to bother listing, or you’re incapable of learning them.
- Growth-oriented startups require decisive, unified leadership.
- Nationalists should be nationalists for the nation they’re active in.
- Don’t promote racist ultraviolence.
- If you insist on doing so, don’t directly associate it with a political party.
- If the leadership of your party does that, resign promptly to minimize exposure.
- Don’t trust drug and alcohol addicts with anything.
The only non-obvious takeaway is that NJP’s message which held that the NJP was the only solution is false. Many of its former supporters are in a state of despair because they bought into the NJP’s messaging that they’re the last and only hope — and now their hope is lost. The cause of white identity has been steadily gaining momentum in the past decade despite a string of unforced and unnecessary leadership and organizational failures, and it will continue to.
The fall of the NJP should make one more hopeful, if anything. Good riddance.

The movement attracts hateful and immoral people who feel they have nothing to lose. This is a problem exploited by the movement’s enemies. It scares away supporters and prevents more influential opinion leaders from being inspired by the movement. Many people are saddened by white displacement and open to the message. But few are willing to associate with or listen to many of the movement’s so-called leaders. People who have something to lose, who are serious, have mortgages and families will not take the time to listen to ridiculous representatives. Dignity is in demand.
The movement is growing because the message is right.
The movement is growing in spite of many of its leading figures.
“The movement attracts hateful and immoral people who feel they have nothing to lose.”
The problem with the asocial elements within the movement is just as apparent in the UK as it is in the US; as far as I can tell, its not as pronounced on mainland Continental Europe where those that actively engage in Nationalist politics tend to be rather more serious and “hands-on” in their involvement. This maybe due to the histories of their countries along with far less acute social class delineations.
In the US/UK there appears to be a greater willingness to tolerate the presence of socially unstable and dysfunctional elements which is probably both a product of and a contributor towards the “big fish in a little pond” mindset – “I’ve got plenty of followers, and even though they’re scumbags the membership fees I take from them helps line my pockets”.
……..Beer belly contest, anyone?
I liked the NJP branding and some of its principals but can’t say it was really much on my radar the last few years. There seemed to be some mojo missing, and that’s what Matt is trying to address here. Other than that I’m clueless.
Nazi fetishism is cancer. WWII was an interesting period of history and there are a lessons to be learned from it but anyone using the European fascism as a blueprint for political activism in 21st century America is trying to play Risk on a Monopoly board.
I have to say, the blatant anti-American sentiment of the NJP turned me off immediately. I absolutely agree with the assessment that “nationalists should be nationalists for the nation they’re active in.” There’s obviously problems in America, but there’s a difference between going after the state and still supporting the American (White) people and just needlessly hating your own country.
I agree with you about their semi-Leftist kneejerk anti-Americanism, which is why I announed in the Counter-Currents comments that I would not be joing the NJP.
And over at TRS and Fash the Nation, I never hesitated to express my unvarnished views in their comment section. This resulted in Jazzhands McFeels getting me banned from the comments for a year until Borzoi relented not long before Mr. McFeels took a powder and left with the entire FTN radio archive in hand.
I have even had fun bantzing technical director and producer Sven from time to time, and he has always taken it pretty decently. He and Mr. Enoch should not be underestimated.
I have always supported the TRS network and never not had a current subscription. I was listening even before the TRS paywall when Greg Johnson was a co-host. That is probably how I ended up here at C-C.
🙂
Almost as bad and embarrassing as the TWP and the cuckbox, almost.
No, far, far worse, because NJP had more members whose hopes were stoked then dashed. But I see what you are doing. Don’t look at my favorite podcasters revealing themselves as frauds. Look over there at something that happened years ago. Sorry, when you present yourself as the second coming of the NSDAP, you get measured by that standard, not TWP.
I thought Warren Balogh was their most reasonable guy, but I agree that the rest of them were just so crazy and hard to take seriously.
People aside, I agree that this enormous push towards Hitler worshipping, Christianity bashing, and embrace of socialism is truly worrisome and unproductive. I don’t want white nationalists to basically be a Pro-White version of Bernie Sanders folks with a dash of Sam Harris. How ironic that they’d basically become everything Jewish but simply have different positions on immigration and demographics?
Christianity and Capitalism are not bad for whites, nor the primary source of our problems. What HAPPENED to Christianity and Capitalism is the problem!
Prior to the 1960s, the overwhelming majority of white Christians understood race, and they upheld a moral version of Capitalism that rejected mass, non-white immigration and put white Americans first and foremost. This resulted in widespread home and vehicle ownership, affordable college education, and safe and healthy communities. An Atheist in 1952 who worked for a white, Christian Capitalist had a better life than a fundamentalist Christian working for a Liberal, Atheist, crony Capitalist in the present day. It’s simply a fact.
While we can’t be too picky about working with other Pro-white organizations, we certainly don’t have to tolerate fratboy behavior, clinical levels of dysfunction in leadership or among members, or the widespread embrace of Naziism and hatred of tradition. We can, and must do better
So here’s the deal’s with the 1950s: I like the milkshakes, I like the sports scene, and I like the corporate advertisements featuring attractive White couples and families. Everything else about that era is either unobtainable or undesirable:
Unobtainable: The American economy of the 1950s – as well as the 1960s and early 1970s until Real Wages stagnated in about 1974 and have stayed that way ever since – was only as prosperous as it was due to the unique geopolitical circumstances of that era. Europe was in ruins after the Good Guys lost WW2, Japan also lost WW2 and didn’t start producing vehicles competitive with American vehicles until the 1980s, and China was a third world country that fell to Communism in 1948, didn’t reform itself until about 1971, and didn’t start its current growth trajectory until the 1990s. America was alone among healthy, first world economies, and it’s only true military competitor was the Soviet Union.
The prosperity of the 1950s that contards worship from a social standpoint (“traditional values!”), libtards worship from an economic standpoint (“fair share of the wealth!”) and trad minded WNs wish to turn the clock back too, was never going to last long term. As soon as Europe recovered and the East Asian countries caught up, American economic prosperity on that level ceased to exist, even as the dollar remained the world’s reserve currency due mostly to geopolitical inertia.
The economic prosperity of the immediate post WW2-era is gone and isn’t coming back, even if we instituted all the socially conservative policies and economically leftist policies that different bases of major political party voters want. We need policies and adjust to the world as it is and as we wish it to be for the future, not out of some reactionary impulse.
Undesirable: The 1950s was when the lethal dogma of Racial Equality became triumphant. Housing covenants were abolished by the Supreme Court in 1948. Segregation of the schools, which was designed to protect White students from the inherent abrasiveness of Negro students, was abolished in 1954. Dwight D. Eisenhower ordered the National Guard to integrate Little Rock, Arkansas at the point of a gun in 1957. All of this culminated in the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Immigration Act of 1965, the legalization of interracial marriage in 1967, and Disparate Impact in 1971.
After the Jews used the United States + Britain + the Soviet Union to make themselves Masters of the World following WW2, they proceeded to enact the agenda they had in mind all along – the agenda that Hitler tried to stop in Germany and Madison Grant and Lothrop Stoddard tried to stop in America. Yes, there was mass resistance in the South, but after they lost that struggle, White Southerners themselves became good little Colorblind Conservatives by the 1990s.
Just as equally pertinent, White Americans in the 1950s were caught in a family cycle that is fundamentally alien to us: The man works some soul sucking White collar job or slave like Blue collar job, the women does all the menial labor at home while also tending to the kids, and everyone is domesticated and servile.
In the face of that, our race took to the 1960s culture of Permissivness and “Live & Let Live” like a fish to water. It was a collective deep breath. A “trad” culture that shames nakedness and sex is a culture that our race won’t soon live under, whether that’s 1950s culture, the Victorian Era in Britain, or any other era that crushes our sensuality and reduces us to the family life of third world races such as the Middle Easterners.
White Nationalism must be Progressive and Futuristic if it wants to win, and more importantly, if it wants to resonate with the race-soul of our people. The 1950s isn’t that. Traditionalism in general isn’t that.
Christianity and Capitalism are precisely what led to our unfortunate current state. Capitalism (free trade) dictates that we must include all people in the global market, and Christianity (Judaism 2.0) is grounded in Judaism. Christian Capitalism is the perfect combination for a Jewish minority to thrive and ultimately subvert the country.
I like what I’ve seen of Warren Balogh.
It’s fair to say that NJP had some notable successes, such as their activism surrounding the Waukesha massacre. If nothing less, they were able to expose the anti-white cowardice of mainstream politicians like Ron Johnson. They put these (Republican) politicians on the spot as being unwilling to demand Darryl Brooks be charged with hate crimes after deliberately murdering white people.
They have had a part in shifting the Overton window towards acknowledging white dignity and so deserve some credit for that.
What were their successes? A small demonstration of people holding up signs? What does it demonstrate, exactly? Small numbers?
Mike Peinovich began declaring that these tiny gatherings put “pressure” on the system. How, exactly, can that be measured? No answer.
Let’s just be honest here: Peinovich was BSing.
He built up a group of people who would believe and do whatever he wanted, basically, and instead of commanding them to do real activism, he just commanded them to believe and repeat transparent bullshit about how their small, low-effort protests were putting “pressure” on the system.
That is the NJP problem in a nutshell: idealism, money, and manpower wasted by low-effort leaders whose followers would not demand anything more because they were content with the leadership’s bullshit.
Greg,
It gets worse. People said Waukesha protest was organized and managed by local guys. NJP came with no security, no plan, and no backup or concern for the 90% of dudes that stood out there. It was celebrity podcasters showing up for a show.
Just over a year later, Tony attacked these same guys and as a result they were one of the first mass walkouts on the NJP. Then months after that so-called “supporters” continue to leave due to Sven and Tony’s abuse form of management.
Matt should talk more about Tony – he works with him, but blames his Tony’s negligence as Chief of Staff on TRS, generally. No mention of Sven’s claims of Tony’s half Jewish wife and Vassily, his secret 100% Jewish funder that Sven claims flew Tony around first-class. The guy apparently also gave Sven money and he and Mike had him on TDS because he bought them fancy booze and cigars. The stories Sven leaked are barely touched on in this article.
Yes, NJP apparently had a pattern of swooping in to take credit for the work of others.
Then they lied about the effectiveness of “their” activism.
They also apparently lied about their membership numbers.
They lied about how many people attended their events.
They lied to denigrate other racial nationalist groups.
Sven apparently knew for years that one of Tony’s associates is a half-Jew. Did Sven blow the whistle right away? No, he kept that piece of information secret, so he could use it against Tony.
Well, Sven, if it is bad for Tony to associate with a half-Jew, why did you allow this character access to your network for years then only reveal it to attack Tony?
At this point if Tony is impeached for associating with a half-Jew, Sven is doubly impeached for hiding the fact. These podcasters are so crooked, they have to screw their jackboots on the in morning.
White Nationalism deserves so much better.
Oh, please. What a bunch of B.S.
Isn’t Mr. Parrott’s organization the one that was wearing plastic Stahlhelms at events like Pikesville, and whose guys looked more like they were busy trying to wives-swap and win beer belly contests?
And as far as “History Nerds,” one of my complaints about the TRS/NJP people was that the most educated one was Striker, who was basically a tabloid journalist who probably flunked High School History. Striker could not pronounce big words that every noob in a college survey class should have been able to say correctly in a sentence. Sometimes I wondered if English was Striker’s first language.
Conte seemed like he had actually read some stuff, probably not Generaloberst Guderian’s memoirs (kind of a slog). But what put me off was that Conte seemed completely uninterested in having discussions with Boomers who actually have read all of that stuff, plus all of David Irving’s forty or so books.
Maybe the History book discussion guys might not be the best “Movement” organizers, but that seems like a bit of a straw man.
As soon as you come out as a White Nationalist, you might as well prepare to be a Nazi because you are not going to ever be a safe Kosher Libertarian any longer.
Maybe eschewing open discussions of the Jewish Question and the Holiest-of-Holies will gain one’s club accesss to the proverbial bags of Zionist donor cash ─ but your staying behaved in such an intellectually spineless manner means that you can kiss goodbye any hope of any genuine White advocacy.
White people in some countries actually go to prison saying rather benign things that some gimme-groups pathologically don’t like. This cannot stand. Either all of us can speak our minds or none of us can.
In my admittedly limited experience, most of these Movement guys were either punk-ass kids with honed toilet humor or just had a weird fetish about the Grug-tier “Working Class.”
I have nothing against welders and ditch-diggers, but for your information, the NSDAP was actually a lower-middle class movement ─ which is why people like Doctor Goebbels and Albert Speer were competent at what they did.
I could only take Striker and McNabb in smaller doses. Striker was a blow-hard, but I honestly don’t remember any “violence advocacy” coming from McNabb. Can Mr. Parrott document his claims? I didn’t think so.
The Palestinian cause is not mine, but criticizing Jews or Israel is hardly Genocide, if that is what is meant here.
I have little interest in “NazBol” or postmodern Savitri Devi either. Some of this is just whackadoodle.
I am reminded of a certain Christian lady who often spoke at White Nationalist events. I really should not name this person, but she was sort of from the E. Michael Jones Traditional Rites persuasion who also thought that Hitler was the greatest Nordic Trad Cath Über-Pollack of all time. At one point she was unsuccessfully working on her PhD in estoeric Adolf ─ and she also self-published a lot of Amazon books that aesthetically resembled fetish porn with endless wolves and Lederhosen on the covers.
I have seen a lot of weird stuff ─ but honestly, quit the “stop the ‘Nazi fetish’” virtue-signalling. Who exactly is doing this “Nazi Fetish” thing anyway?
The idea that we can of course learn from the National Socialists or the Third Reich but that we darent speak his name, is just dumb LOLbert B.S.
The NJP wasn’t waving Krinklejammers or carrying “Gas the Jews” placards as far as I know. So stop the Marxist culture-jamming.
In any case, I do agree with Mr. Dunstan’s take that the TRS radio network should not have dabbled into Movement stuff at all.
But I distinctly got the impression that they were trying to cultivate this phony Grug vibe in order to boost NEET subscribers ─ and what else panders to the juvenile peanut gallery more than the endless two-minutes of Boomer Hate?
I also agree that the pool parties and Irish pub drinking culture has to go. I have gone to a few White Nationalist meetings in the last forty or so years, and invariably I was extremely disappointed.
You would sometimes meet some solid guys like attorney Glen Allen, and people who you could really learn some things from ─ but most of the time it was a bunch of bored White Trash welders who just wanted to show off their new tattoos and do some serious drinking and Manosphere wanking.
The postmortem of the NJP has pretty much already been summed up decently in that they fostered a culture of paranoid obscurantism when they needed the most transparency, self-reflection, and folkish comradery.
They were proud of not having any military experience or knowledge of firearms, for example.
And I do agree with Mr. Parrott that their kneejerk anti-Americanism was pretty dumb ─ even the Founding Fathers were Jooish stooges, apparently.
The NJP had pretty decent optics for the most part ─ no Fashy uniforms, but clean and sharp and disciplined young men who stuck to the script in their protest messaging. Give Mr. Enoch and the Baloghs some credit where credit is due.
One of the few faux pas here at some of the NJP demonstrations is that they sometimes used local helpers who were masked up like stereotypical “racist thugs.” Also, the first rule of vetting trusted cadre is to run a simple credit and criminal background check.
A movement will be destroyed quickly if it attracts Lost Sheep and other kinds of crybabies who act like that in finding White Nationalism they have just found Jesus.
🙂
McNabb has a whole reoccurring bit where he’s “Dr Narcan” & he cruelly puts IVs into black children incorrectly to hurt them. They also have said “I’m not just saying adults I’m saying ALL of them women children whatever ” type stuff while Mike tried to get them to say it’s a joke & not what they actually believe
I’ve been listening to TDS since 2014 and they *never* said any of that.
“Narcan” was actually going out of his way to state he was offering all his patients the best care he could, although this made him unpopular with some listeners (lots of gangbangers in his stories).
Go back to the antifa discord you came from!
Okay, fair point. I do agree that this kind of irony-bro dark humor is better left to a media company than to a serious political party.
I happen to like dark humor and irony like the Twilight Zone or Black Mirror, so I immensely enjoyed McNabb’s “Dr. Narcan” bit ─ but it’s probably not a good idea for a qualified EMT.
Also, I doubt that there would be any complaints if Whites were the butt of the joke and the media company were (((Hollywood))).
But the fact is that McNabb stopped doing the Dr. Narcan bit long before the NJP was created. And it was obvious (at least to me) that “Dr. Narcan” was a demented/overworked and quasi-professional character. Nobody asks actor Anthony Hopkins if he really enjoys human liver with a spot of Chianti.
In fact, McNabb stopped his Dr. Narcan bit after that weirdo veterinarian Locke Boyce (may he RIP) called him out on it in a Virginia town hall meeting or something like that (where McNabb was dressed in a suit ─ ear gauges and all ─ and conspicuously reading one of Jim Goad’s excellent White advocacy books).
McNabb might never win an Academy Award, but he is the kind of EMT podcaster that grows on you.
🙂
Striker holds a history degree, but you’re somewhat right in calling him unimpressive. His writing is pretty poor (technical-wise) although he seems knowledgeable enough and his research skills are fine. He’s more of a classic journalist than an intellectual.
Military history and Guderian’s books are mostly irrelevant to what we are doing.

I agree with respect to Movement stuff.
I have never claimed to be a Movement guy. I have found them all wanting ─ including the NJP, and while hoping that they suceeded, I publicly (on this forum) refused to join the NJP.
I tried and I tried to get a straight answer if the NJP was at least committed in principle to American Nazi Party Commander George Lincoln Rockwell’s dicta contained in his Legal, Psychological and Political Warfare (being formulated before his 1967 assassination by a crybaby comrade).
As far as I’m concerned, any WN movement group that does not at least ackwnowledge and incorporate such a non-violent political warfare philosophy is doomed to fail (or else is possibly a bunch of Feds).
Greg Conte did finally obliquely and somewhat cryptically acknowledge that at least he was thinking along Rockwell’s lines ─ and he probably got chastised by the others for giving away NJP secrets to Boomer outsiders. Conte’s meltdown was not long after that.
Anyway, this kind of philosophy when accepted (and modernized for the realities of the 21 century) needed to be BOLDLY announced to all from the start ─ and doing so will preempt a lot of mischief and vandalism, whether it was intended to be helpful or just malicious pranksterism.
As far as an academic knowledge of History, well I disagree that this is not important “to what we are doing.”
For one thing, the Big-H is the proverbial Bloody Shirt that will always be waved and held over the heads of all White Nationalists, including Libertarian pretenders, and it is even today used to prosecute people in countries without a strong First Amendment tradition. Nobody wants or needs that.
Therefore, there is no getting around it. We have to understand at least the nature of the beast and what the Big-H theocracy is really about.
I have never demanded that anybody take a specific position on either the Jewish Question or the Big-H other than being willing to discuss it openly and honestly. And I have not excluded Jews from that dialog or debate process if they did so in good faith. Ask Dr. Nick Terry, a History lecturer at Exeter in the UK if you don’t believe me. He was a semi-Leftist PhD candidate who I let moderate the RODOH forum about a dozen years ago.
When CODOH went offline in 2003, or otherwise became too Rightwing orthodox and censorious, I started and then promoted RODOH as a real place for open debate on such taboo subjects. And I did my best to make sure that Jews and other Leftist critics were allowed a fair voice. I never took a dime in contributions from anyone.
When my webmaster gets out of prison in Sweden, I will restore the RODOH archive if I can. But currently I have not heard of any complaints about censorship at the CODOH forum, and I do contribute over there myself from time to time.
David Irving is a fine popular historian whom I greatly admire. But his taking on Saint Lipstadt in libel court without knowing very much about the Big-H and competent Revisionist arguments, did not serve him well.
Mark Weber and David Cole peddling their Holocaust Lite does not seem to be working well for them either. IHR website statistics are rock bottom.
The fact that TRS is willing to address this onerous taboo counts enormously in their favor ─ and Mr. Peinovich was even willing to formally debate it with some PhD candidate on his radio program.
History itself is a “Revisionist” methodology ─ like the Scientific Method is a constantly-revised empirical/observable knowledge-base and NOT a corpus of canon that can be either blindly worshipped or DENIED(tm). That is why it is good for political philosophers to actually study History.
Mike Enoch is pretty well-read, which is to his great credit.
🙂
Who said anything about that? Knowledge of history is of course important to any political enterprise. Military history, not so much.
That’s a very weird measure of success you are using for what is essentially an academic disagreement between 90s Holocaust deniers and what you call “Holocaust Lite”. If popularity with the masses would be used as a metric, then the Holocaust must have been perpetrated by reptilians, because David Ike would have you both on the ropes.
One learns historiography through studying History. This includes military history, and it is especially important in this case because WWII was a massive watershed event.
How Hitler is seen by historians is more important than whether he really ordered the Panzer III to be equipped with a larger 50 mm gun at the outset (he did) or held up the Me 262 jet fighter because he wanted a bomber (he didn’t).
The point about the IHR was that by adopting a more respectable anti-Semitism and denying Denial ─ shilling for those poor Palestinians against the evil Zionists instead of dealing with historical revisionist topics any longer ─ it did not improve their financial success much.
They should have kept their journal in publication and worked on its quality, including broadening its topics, even though the journal was a burden for the Institute with all the Greatest Generation donors starting to die off. Kids are still getting taught the Human Soap story in school.
People here seem to be arguing for a sanitized “Movement” or intellectual cadre that says nothing “anti-Semitic” or controversial.
I think that will backfire because the enemy already has control of the goalposts, and they spend billions and billions of dollars on the necessary mass-media promotion. The term Genocide was coined by Lemkin in 1944 precisely because it was abstruse. Even criticizing Israeli military actions in Gaza today is deemed to be calling for Genocide. This is by definition political.
Making the Holocaust or any historical discussion off limits that is too critical for the Kosher seal of approval in order to curry favor with skittish LOLberts and even ZOG is not winning anything. Racists are already homicidal maniacs under the current theology.
Of course it takes competent people to do this kind of thought, and maybe not so much edgy podcasters. These kinds of questions are completely excluded from legitimate academic discourse, however, and the Truth should be a grave concern for all White advocates, regardless.
David Irving is a pariah now not because he asked too many questions or delved into military history (oh Gawd) but because he found that Hitler never gave an order to exterminate the Jews. Even Holocaust historians (mostly) agree with this, but they don’t want anybody traipsing off the Reservation and saying such things.
I think these are important questions for White people to ask. Feel free to disagree.
🙂
From what I heard NJP leadership thought themselves too good to cooperate with anyone else. Its ironic that they’re gone while everyone else is still here. I hope the former rank and file members don’t drop out, I’m sure many of them would be a good asset wherever they go.
What next?
Early 20th century revolutionaries, Left and Right, understood that control of the “means of production” was central to gaining political victory. Control the factories, or more critically, the factory workers, and you were on the way since industry was central to the functioning of the modern state. Revolutionaries also exploited the emerging propaganda technologies of the era, notably film and radio.
At the opening of the 20th century Marinetti expounded on the “beauty of speed” and the purr of race car engines. Today, 21st century’s technologies move at the speed of light and hum across fiber optic cables worldwide.
Christian Secor’s “Conservatism is Doomed to Fail, but Futurism Can Win” (C-C, 3 January 2024) makes the point that the Dissident Right needs to adopt emerging technologies to gain the victory. This is something the Left (or the Left’s string pullers) understands in a general sort of way, control of IT means control of communications and a front for pushing your propaganda while de-platforming the opposition.
The Dissident Right has made some guerrilla forays into this front (see the Great Meme War). This needs to be taken further. Example: organizing a front or network of nationalist IT workers, STEM students, game developers, high-tech start-up entrepreneurs, and so forth. Put the nationalist movement in the dealer’s position of a high stakes game.
Perhaps push for a General Strike of IT folks?
In 2013 the Army general in charge of the Pentagon’s Cyber Command ran up against considerable opposition when he addressed the Black Hat cyber security conference in Las Vegas. There were a lot of Americans – yes, Americans – in his audience who opposed the growing use of cyber to monitor dissidents. This was when the field was still dominated by White people who were pro-First Amendment. And there are still plenty of Americans who would sign up if there were a movement which was in the field. Consider the IT oligarchs who would be aligned with such a nationalist network, such as Elon Musk.
Like Faye’s Archeofuturism, a techno-nationalist movement would combine the best of the past (free speech, can-do engineering) with revolutionary technologies.
The deep weakness of the present White Nationalist perspective is allowing sub-racial issues to command our attention. Our organization’s struggle because – for the moment – ‘White Nationalism’ is associated with an enormous number of fringe elements who are all dedicated to getting Whites to take sides on sub-racial issues (like ‘Christianity’ or ‘conservatism’ or ‘liberalism’ or ‘leftism’ or ‘rightism’).
I think that, in general, we’re doing better, but I hope we’ll do better in the future with not allowing our energy and attention to be sucked into black hole of opinion-rendering after another.
If NJP is dead, it’s one more data-point supporting the hypothesis that media personalities are not the best source of functional political leadership. The saddest thing is how the failings of NJP personalities caused well-meaning and concerned Whites to be betrayed. One can only hope that this betrayal doesn’t lead to completely losing hope.
Appropo to one of Mark’s points, the NSDAP took 10 years of effort to take control of a destitute country the size of Wyoming with the population of Rhode Island. The NSDAP’s ‘methods’ for organizing provides very little that is of use to pro-White organizing for the North American continent except one thing: The NSDAP started out winning local elections and built from there.
And you don’t need a national organization to win local elections in suburban or rural areas. Urban areas are a bit more competitive, but, ultimately, winning by one vote is enough to get a candidate elected.
My advise to young Whites people looking to help the White race is stay away from White Nationalist ‘activist’ organizations. The basic formula is to succeed locally and then build a national network of like-minded persons. If elected, be competent and assist other like-minded White people to also obtain office. The mechanics of getting elected as an officer of local government isn’t hard to learn, especially if you willing to put the time in volunteering your help during elections.
‘Activism’ is what trustifarians do in order to relieve their boredom with being cogs in the machine of the winning side.
The reason the enemies of Whites don’t pursue local offices more is because their ideas all suck and once in office they alienate the voters. Try not to do that if you get elected and the people will hand you all the power you can want. Look at how much White people support Trump and he’s a complete clown.
You forgot the worst of the bunch. The incels/manosphere and their neverending struggle to co-opt WN into their cultish hatred of women. I remember encountering these characters back in my SF days. Jack Boot was wise enough to finally give them a kick en-masse, which is more than you can say for Enoch.
A full enumeration of every fringe political and cultural hobby-horse that has attached itself to the pro-White stream of North American culture would be quite long. But you’re right. I have compassion for my White brothers and sisters experiencing distress over finding a mate in the current climate. I just don’t find their ‘solutions’ (like ‘White Taliban’) to be acceptable in any way.
Modern women, save a few exceptions, are basically enemy soldiers. Feminism (mostly a jewish invention) is maybe the major success of the enemy. By turning women into enemy soldiers they are condeming the white race to extinction, and this in turn brings the dissolution of the culture and civilization that race created.
The manosphere is right condeming women, but is wrong about the solution of the problem.
White rights, Men’s rights, Bill of Rights: They are not three, but one. Can’t have one without the other two. As Dr Duke says, turning our women against us was the greatest victory of the Jews.
Capitalism good? More idiocy. You can’t let greed heads run a nation since their only motive is personal or class profit. Capitalism/Communism – the two hands of the Beast – are about matter and lust for it. Fascism and National Socialism are about Man.
We can’t get beyond the basics until we grasp the basics.
What a great blast from the past this has been. What about Matt Heimbach? Is it time to rehabilitate him or is he still an antifa, lol.
Can a religion be created by intellectuals? Or isn’t it more of an organic growth, or better yet, a revelation from above? Some have likened it to a divine tide, with the resulting religion being a tidal pool left behind as the tide goes out. Dried up by the sun of time, are we due for a new revelation?
Barring or until that, why not the Vedic religion as put forward by Savitri Devi?
I’m not necessarily disagreeing with your views about the importance of winning local elections, but 1919 Weimar Germany had a population of about sixty Rhode Islands, and an area of about seven Wyomings ─ both figures substantially less than in 1914 before the Great War.
By 1932, the NSDAP held a plurality of seats in the Reichstag.
Of course, the USA is very different. Why do people keep trying to make this point?
For one thing, we have a two-party system that has evolved to ensure that systemic change can’t happen ─ unless maybe it is led by a bunch of benevolent billionaires, or via something very dicey and probably not too fortunate from our point of view.
I don’t see how electing more Whites into (local) offices will change anything unless they are somehow disciplined fiercely behind some kind of organizing idea.
And Whites never seem to want to be organized in any way as Whites. The first thing they will want to do is make the group pictures for the small town barbecue look more “Diverse.”
🙂
I have never been very good at math. Germany today is about 28 times smaller than the US.
If I have you an opponent 28 times bigger than you, you’d lose unless you had a serious plan for success.
I don’t see how electing more Whites into (local) offices will change anything unless they are somehow disciplined fiercely behind some kind of organizing idea.
I must have been unclear. My view is that pro-White Whites ought to run for office but only if they have avoided active affiliation with public ‘White advocacy activist organizations’ of any kind.
As for the ‘disciplined fiercely’ part, that’s an approach that has failed over and over and over again. The enemies of Whites can thank that stars that fans of the ‘disciplined’ approach never learn. Otherwise Whites might have been effectively fighting at the ground level for a while now.
The ‘fierce discipline’ you’re setting as a predicate to effective electioneering is not coming to save us.
We need an somewhat-more-operationalizable Plan B.
Preferably one that will led to more organizational cohesion among Whites.
And my view is that it’s more of an pro-White ethos than a pro-White organization. The important thing is to get even vaguely pro-Whites into office. Especially if they’re competent.
And Whites never seem to want to be organized in any way as Whites.
I know you think this is an objection, but it’s really a description of the problem that White Nationalism is supposed to solve.
The first thing they will want to do is make the group pictures for the small town barbecue look more “Diverse.”
So? If that helps them to camouflage their pro-White agenda while they go about the process of making their local government more pro-White, what’s the problem?
Don’t let ‘best’ get in the way of ‘better’.
“Don’t let ‘best’ get in the way of ‘better’.”
Fair enough. But we seem to be up against a demographic time bomb and we are lost deep inside the dark cave without very many matches left.
I am pretty skeptical of crypto-racism. Either groups who want to set examples actively walk the talk or they actually don’t.
But I don’t have all the answers.
🙂
You can be suspicious all you want of ‘crypto-racism’ but there is simply no indication that ‘overt racism’ is necessary to be an effective ‘racist’.
As for the ‘demographic time bomb’ being a ‘racist’ isn’t a plan for fixing that. It’s just a way of marginalizing your politics. Whites have always been a global minority. The issue is that the racial enemies of Whites want to bring the Global Non-White Community to live in White spaces. Finding a way to address the lack of local power and restoring local power to local communities (both problems the Left has been concerned about for a long time) ought to be very important.
Within ‘the movement’ what I see time and again is a kind of learned helplessness; an acceptance of marginalization without the slightest real effort to acquire actual policy-making authority. In order to attack the kind of talent it will take to get people elected and keep them in office, we need a recruitment strategy that deals with the spectrum of pro-Whiteness in a productive way.
Our side has gotten really good at diagnosing our problems.
What it’s not at adept at is finding ways to constructively address them.
Our side has no electoral training, no electoral strategy and, seemingly, no interest in developing either.
A decent candidate doesn’t have to run on being ‘pro-White’, they just have to defend the interests of Whites when the inevitable attacks on Whites start. The enemies of Whites – antifa, BLM, jews – are literally everywhere. Any White person that runs is going to be asked to swear their fealty to the current fetishes of the New Gods. That’s when a candidate can signal to normal White folks that they stand with them.
I like Stryker’s writings. He has a really good essay on Werner Sombart up on his sub stack account right now. I’m not sure how original his writing is, but he’s the conduit through which I receive it. I think we should take the good things people produce and not get caught up in personal vendettas.
That’s the Stoic principle right? Don’t gossip or undermine the social fabric.
Striker is a paranoid and a liar. That impeaches the credibility of everything he writes and says. So he is not a reliable conduit. At best you are wasting your time. At worst, you are drinking from a poisoned well.
Well, you know, rely but verify.
Do you find it eerie how many people on the dissident right are secretly married to Jews or are secretly part Jewish? Am I onto something?
Good riddance is right.
I have little interest in the world of podcasting and never paid attention to the NJP, especially after they supported the plaintiffs in the bogus $2miilion lawsuit against the National Alliance ten years ago that I had to defend against. Where are all of those coup-plotting losers today?
Alan Balogh had been a dedicated Alliance member for years and is a good man. I met him and his son Warren when Warren was 12-years old. I viewed a video of Warren a few years back, giving a speech for NJP that was actually quite good, but for the wrong group. The Alliance will leave the door cracked for good men like the Baloghs to rejoin. It’s shut for now, however, to the misguided, know-it-all pool-partiers and frat boys.
I hate to tell you Mr. Hamburger Today but Christianity is not a “sub-racial issue.” If we are to survive as a race, the cause of White preservation must have a new spiritual foundation — and not one that worships its enemy’s tribal deity. Dr. William Pierce, arguably the greatest White race-thinker during the second half of the 20th century, a deep-thinking physicist who studied the laws of Nature scientifically, founded the Cosmotheist belief system for our people. In an early talk he gave in 1977, he explained to those gathered: Cosmotheism: Wave of the Future | National Vanguard
… I told you before in earlier meetings that we can find partial expressions of Cosmotheism among the writings of the ancients, 25 centuries ago. A great many of the Greek and Roman philosophers understood parts of our truth. The same was true of the pagan philosophers of northern Europe – and also of certain outstanding Christian thinkers in the Middle Ages, despite the fundamental contradictions of Cosmotheism with the teachings of the Church.
Then in the 18th and 19th centuries there was an enormous outpouring of Cosmotheist feeling. Cosmotheism, or at least one aspect of Cosmotheism, was the underlying idea of the entire Romantic movement in art and literature, from Alexander Pope to Joseph Turner and William Wordsworth. And Cosmotheism is the underlying idea of 20th century science. Today, more and more thinkers, scientific thinkers in particular, are coming to understand that fact and also to give explicit expression to that understanding.
I pointed out to you in earlier meetings some of the specifically Cosmotheist statements of some of the medieval thinkers and also some of the more modern philosophers: Hegel, Fichte, and others. The more one looks into the matter, the clearer becomes this Cosmotheist thread running through the spiritual and intellectual history of our race.
Every week I run across more and more examples. Just last Thursday someone sent me this statement by the novelist D.H. Lawrence – and I quote just a part of a longer statement by Lawrence: “We and the cosmos are one. The cosmos is a vast living body, of which we are still parts. The sun is a great heart whose tremors run through our smallest veins. The moon is a great gleaming nerve-center from which we quiver forever… Now all this is literally true, as men knew in the great past, and as they will know again.”
Ref. World War II: on page 12 of “The Forced War” by David L. Hoggan he places the blame on the entirety of the war on Lord Halifax & Britain. This is reading book number seven on WWII. The threat to Spain, Italy, & Germany was Bolshevism, they did not want communism. Many researchers have echoed the same findings. Col. Douglas Macgregor says as much on his interview by Stephen Gardner February 16, 2024.
This is an excellent article that confirmed virtually every trashy thing I suspected about the NJP.
