David Zsutty makes an “elevator pitch” to a billionaire to put his money behind white survival. From the Counter-Currents Spring Retreat in Rome.

Please share far and wide, especially with the billionaire next door.

If I had a large sum of money, I would start an offensive law firm.

Like in war, offense is better than defense in law. If you are the defendant, whether it be in a civil or criminal case, you have already lost. The only question is how much. Even if you recover attorney fees, you will never recover the lost time, stress, and effort.

And while there are limits on forum shopping, going on the offense allows you to pick good cases in good locations. The Left targets us in Leftist strongholds like Washington DC and Charlottesville. There is no self-executing law or process. The rule of law is a despicable lie. There is only rule of men, specifically rule of judges and jurors. A case is largely determined by where, and thus by whom, it will be heard. Geography matters as much in law as it does in war.

Furthermore, suing is a we win, they lose situation. If we win, we gain prestige and our client gains a nice sum of money—some of which may make its way back to the broader movement. Plus, anything that can blunt the Left’s favored weapon of doxing is a major net benefit to everyone. And if we fail, it still delegitimizes the system by revealing that it is anti-White.

Some people understandably see the judiciary as hopelessly stacked against them. But again, much of this is due to being hauled into hostile forums. In 2023, a New Jersey federal jury awarded a regional manager, Shannon Phillips, $600,000 in compensatory damages and $25 million in punitive damages against Starbucks for anti-White discrimination. And after trial, a federal judge ordered Starbucks to pay her an additional $2.7 million for back pay, front pay, and tax consequences. That’s about $28.3 million, plus attorney’s fees.

This stemmed from a 2018 incident in which Starbucks threw her and other employees under the bus for violating the fundamental human right of black people to loiter in cafes without ordering anything.

Was this a one-time fluke? It’s hard to tell because most cases don’t go to trial. Due to the risks for both sides and the difficulty of collecting judgements, they usually result in settlements. And a business would likely insist on a non-disclosure agreement as part of that negotiated settlement. They wouldn’t want word getting out that they lost a case of reverse discrimination due to backlash from the woke mob and because they probably discriminated against other Whites too who are also potential plaintiffs.

So why hasn’t the movement already gone on the offensive? A problem is that it takes money to make money. Despite its yapping about freedom, America has a vicious cancel culture, especially in white collar work, and especially in law. As Laura Loomer recently tweeted at Tucker Carlson, “Good luck finding a law firm that doesn’t have a Jewish partner!” Again, there is no rule of law, only of men.

Thus an offensive law firm would need seed money. Some as a safety net for new attorneys taking the plunge. And some to make sure they have at least one senior attorney to provide insight, strategic guidance, and procedural know how. But after than initial infusion of capital and winning a few cases or settlements, it would be fully self-sustaining.
