A Tale of Two Narratives

In much of the commentary surrounding today’s politics in the United States, we have a struggle between two narratives. After cutting through all the nuance and boiling everything down to the essentials, the conflicting sides can be described in the following way. One side blames whites for the greatest wrongs of history while presuming the relative innocence of non-whites, while the other side blames non-whites for the greatest wrongs of history while presuming the relative innocence of whites. Notice that although there are two sides, there are four crucial elements underneath. Here is a Punnett square to illustrate:

Within this paradigm, one can map political players fairly easily and accurately. Consider also that the struggle is horizontal, not vertical. Basically, it’s a battle of heterozygous positions—wN vs Wn. Antifa, Black Lives Matter, the Democratic Party, the LGBTQ crowd, the mainstream media, Hollywood, and academia all fall into the wN sector above, the leftmost part of the square. With all these forces concentrated in one place, what we know as “the Left” becomes formidable indeed. There is great cohesion, little infighting, and few wasted resources.

Resisting them is the Republican Party and its millions of normal, white Americans, assimilable non-whites, American patriots, traditionalists, and Christians. These folks occupy the WN sector of the Punnett square, since they mean well, are agnostic about race, and remain beholden to the melting pot model of America. Of those who remain, the more cynical types may fall into the everyone’s guilty sector (wn) and become libertarians, cranks, or crackpots depending on their temperament. Meanwhile, the more courageous and discerning of folks plop for the wN sector in direct opposition to the Left. Here, people will (rightfully in my opinion) celebrate white innocence and castigate non-whites for their multitude of sins, past and present. These three groups can be fit into the loose category we call today “the Right.”

Unfortunately, with rightists spread out across three sectors of the square (and with a good deal of squabbling among them), they are essentially unorganized and incohesive, and thus offer little serious resistance to the Left. I hope Reginald Punnett will forgive me if I (mis)appropriate his model to demonstrate the current leftist hegemony in American culture:

The good news is that with Donald Trump’s second term, leftist hegemony is now meeting serious resistance from the Right—certainly for the first time the Cold War. This comes as a result of people in the top and bottom sectors feeling the squeeze from the Left and retreating rightward, into the Wn camp. A great example of this is how Steven Crowder, a typical everyone’s-innocent, WN influencer who shies away from race realism and ethnocentrism, reacted to the recent scandal in which private text messages revealed Young Republicans using the word “nigga” and supporting slavery and Hitler. Initially, Crowder played it off as them joking, but when co-host Nick Di Paolo said he would the support the kids even if they weren’t joking, Crowder agreed. Ten years ago, that would have been suicide for him. Nowadays, he gets away with it because the Right is coalescing. The Right is growing stronger and becoming less willing to attack their own. It’s also becoming more willing to attack the Left.

And why? Certainly, leftist excess has a lot to do with it. Stealing elections, opening the border to millions of illegal immigrants, and encouraging transgenderism in children (among other outrages) will have that effect. Just as importantly, however, is the clarity and consistency of the metapolitical ideas that have been coming from the Wn camp all along. And that’s where Counter-Currents comes in. Counter-Currents has been the beacon of rightist, pro-white, ethnocentric thought since its inception in 2010. It has been the champion of the counter narrative, and has remained fresh and relevant all this time. It is a major reason why people in the top and bottom sectors above have been able to quickly and seamlessly transition to the Wn sector of the Right. Our ideas make sense. Our ideas are welcoming. Our ideas are moral. Our ideas are necessary for the survival of the West and of the white race in particular. Thankfully, many people are beginning to realize this and join us in the fight against the anti-white Left.
