Final Theological Questions

Now, very late in the essay, Schelling raises new questions. Will evil ever end? If so, how? Does creation have a final purpose or end goal? If so, why is it not reached immediately? (more…)

René 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.”)

In what may be the dumbest sex strike in history, American feminists who are aghast that Donald Trump won the election are throwing another collective vaginal tantrum.

Eight years ago, these types showed up en masse in D.C. the day after Trump’s inauguration wearing “pink pussyhats” to “reclaim” the word “pussy.” They’d somehow fallen under the impression that Trump had “grabbed” the word from them. (more…)

John Kennedy Toole
A Confederacy of Dunces
Foreword by Walker Percy
Baton Rouge: Louisiana State University Press, 1980

A Confederacy of Dunces is one of the greatest comic novels ever written. It takes its name from a line of Swift’s which serves as its epigraph: “When a true genius appears in the world, you may know him by this sign, that all the dunces are in confederacy against him.” (more…)

Donald Trump easily carried both the popular vote and the Electoral College in this last election. He was aided by three trends that the GOP should understand well if they wish to have what the Democrats had from 1932-1952, an era of total dominance in federal elections. (more…)

Some diseases have different names but the effect is still the same. German Measles, for example, is also known as Rubella, which sounds as though she might be a bad girl from a sci-fi movie. (more…)

Keith Woods was full of promise when he first emerged as a YouTube commentator in January of 2019. But in a few short years, he has gone from promising to delivering. From video documentaries to unscripted livestreams and interviews, from highly effective social media posting to live speaking and now to long-form essays, he has excelled at everything he touches.

There is an excellent chance that most people reading this felt a certain amount of relief or elation after last week’s election. Yes, Donald Trump will become America’s 47th president. This will undo the stolen 2020 election and hopefully a lot more than that. (more…)

Anyone who can sing, dance, or act is simultaneously gifted with tremendous wisdom concerning geopolitics, economics, and political science. Well, that’s what they seem to think, anyway. Predictably, the moment the election didn’t go their way, lefty celebs have been howling like they’re undergoing an exorcism. Why so blue? (more…)

(Read the previous installments in this series here.)

It has been several years since I have published an installment in this series. As faithful readers know, I have been concentrating on my series of essays dealing with Heidegger’s history of metaphysics, from Plato to Nietzsche (now numbering some twenty-five installments; simply search my name to find all of them). After a great deal of thought and research, I am returning to the story of Sigurd, Fafnir’s Bane, and will publish further installments on an irregular basis (though hopefully not once every few years).

The November 2024 issue of Jüdische Rundschau features an interesting article by Julian M. Plutz, titled “Immer mehr Juden erwägen Auswanderung aus Deutschland” (“More and more Jews are considering emigrating from Germany“). This isn’t anything new. Like Iran being just weeks away from developing nuclear weapons, we have heard this narrative for years now. (more…)

For whom the gods wish to destroy, they first make mad. That phrase can describe the Biden regime and its pathetic coda, the Harris-Waltz ticket, in a nutshell. Biden shouldn’t have been nominated as a candidate in 2020, clearly suffered from dementia, and made terrible decisions as president from the outset. This included selecting Kamala Harris as his vice president. He also didn’t really get elected in 2020, but I digress. (more…)

The Good Reset[1]

This essay will complete my Trump trilogy of election essays. I truly believe for the rest of our lives people will talk about the Trump political era with extreme reverence and nostalgia. Before this era, we had the likes of McCain, Romney, the Bush family, Obama, and the Clintons. All political powerhouses that Trump would end in brutal fashion. That alone is a fascinating achievement to consider. (more…)
