The politics of personal destruction are now accompanied by outright assassinations and murder. Unfortunately, political violence is here to stay. The Left and other nefarious actors not only think they have the monopoly on violence but are confident that they control the media apparatus necessary to deflect from its aggression. (more…)

Prime Ministers and Presidents are both the political premiers of their respective countries, but there is a subtle difference in status between the two. The British Prime Minister (PM) has always operated on the primus inter pares principle first recognized in Imperial Rome: first among equals. (more…)

In modern American society, fictional works have become beacons of moral guidance. One such fictional moral beacon is the Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein musical, South Pacific, which was released on Broadway in 1949 and turned into a movie of the same name in 1959. Rodgers was Jewish, Hammerstein partially so and raised a Unitarian. (more…)

Anyone who wishes to live in a relatively tranquil society knows that polarization—that is, the times of das Politische—is anything but reassuring. This is not difficult to understand: during moments of polarization, every situation, act, subject, or object, no matter how insignificant it might appear in more “normal” times, becomes unbearably politicizable and politicized, as though the tangible and intangible alike were ontologically impregnated by the political.

One of the most problematic aspects of the trans movement, largely ignored by the mainstream media, is the sale of “DIY HRT”: Do It Yourself Hormone Replacement Therapy. This involves the illegal trafficking of hormones by trans activists and online pharmacies. The rate of DIY HRT use varies depending on country and age group, but it is extremely common. (more…)

Guess what Great Britain’s National Education Union (NEU) might be? That’s right, it’s the main national educational union for teachers in Great Britain. The odd thing is, though, for a supposedly “national” organization, it does not appear very much to believe in the validity of the existence of the British nation state at all, at least not as a continuing homeland for the British people.

In the shadowed corners of the internet, a Russian website emerged like a grim auction block, eerily resembling an online slave market, where profiles of Ukrainian children – kidnapped from Russian-occupied territories – were advertised for “adoption.” Accompanied by descriptions of their physical builds, eye and hair color, temperaments, and ages, these listings reduced Ukrainian children to commodities, dangling them before prospective Russian families eager to claim a piece of the spoils.

For much of the last decade, conservatives have endured the onslaught of progressive zealotry in America’s cultural and intellectual life. A stray remark deemed insensitive, a tweet judged offensive, or a speech that challenged fashionable orthodoxy was often enough to bring an individual’s career to a premature and humiliating end.

Cancel culture started out as low hum that at first was easy to ignore. The first few celebrities to be canceled were people I didn’t care that much about. There was that lady I had never heard of who had a cooking show. Paula something. A C-list actor here and a former sitcom star there would get canceled but life went on for me. But then they came for Whirr. (more…)

1. The Counter-Currents 2025 Fundraiser
Our fundraiser total now stands at $84,543.09. Once again, my sincere thanks to all who have helped. But we are still a long way from our goal of $300,000 and still more than $20,000 behind where we were at the same time last year ($105,232.86). Generally, the rule is that 50% of fundraising happens in the last quarter of the year. Which means that we are not likely to meet our goal unless we get to $150,000 by the end of the month. Let’s try to make that happen! (more…)

Antifa Is Now a Terrorist Organization
Future historians will have to piece together why it took eight years for Donald Trump to declare antifa a terrorist organization, even though antifa were out in force committing violence on inauguration day in 2017. I would love to know what sweet treasons were being whispered in Trump’s ear—and by whom.
If Trump had cracked down on antifa in 2017, Charlie Kirk might be alive today. (more…)

From the early 1960s onward Buckley was easily goaded to sue, generally on account of casual insults, libels and calumnies that would be tossed off in print or on television, and just as easily forgotten in a week if he didn’t draw attention to them. As a public figure who courted controversy, he should have gained a thicker skin as time went on. (more…)
