Zrovna jsem doposlouchal rozhovor Grega Johnsona s Markem Dyalem na rádiu Counter-Currents. Dyalova pouť od samolibého antirasistického skejťáckého pankáče a fanouška Public Enemy, přes studenta černošských studií až k nieztzscheánskému skinheadskému fašistovi je pro mě zároveň fascinující i povědomá.

La bandera estadounidense no es un símbolo fálico

Traducción por A. Garrido. Enlace original aquí.

¿Quién ondea la bandera en Estados Unidos?

Todos la ondean en mítines políticos, pero las demócratas lesbianas trans-negras no ponen banderas en sus antejardines. No visten camisetas de “estos colores no huyen” ni izan mini-banderas en las antenas de sus camiones. Read more …

The American Flag Is Not A Phallic Symbol

MendingTheNation_Zoom

Wake up Americucks, Your Country Hates You

988 words

Spanish translation here

Who waves the flag in America?

Everyone waves them at political rallies, but transblack lesbian Democrats don’t put flags in their front yards. They don’t wear “these colors don’t run” t-shirts and they don’t fly mini-flags on the antennae of their trucks.

On What is a Rune?

1,389 words

Collin Cleary
What is a Rune? and Other Essays
San Francisco: Counter-Currents Publishing, 2015

As a lifetime “non-believer” who has been delving into Germanic heathen worldviews and traditions for the past year or so, Collin Cleary’s What is a Rune? pulled a few ideas together for me at the right time, introduced some evocative concepts that I’d like to revisit in visual art, and inspired some new questions.

Cohesive Societies Check State Power:
On Francis Fukuyama’s The Origins of Political Order

1,748 words

Francis Fukuyama
The Origins of Political Order: From Prehuman Times to the French Revolution
New York: Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2012

There’s so much meat in Francis Fukuyama’s The Origins of Political Order that someone could teach a college class on it, and someone should. It’s an expansive study of different political systems that attempts to develop a general theory of political development, and explain why different societies have formed different kinds of states — or none at all.

Clickbait Country

You may or may not be old enough to remember when the Internet was a new thing, but for a long time, web pages were not considered “credible” sources.

Ernst Jünger
The Forest Passage
Translated by Thomas Friese
New York: Telos Press, 2013

Urban deserts. Suburban deserts. Even in rural areas it is difficult to escape the commercially refined silicates of mechanized and meaningless modernity that blow over and bury the fossilized remains of dead gods and old ways. Read more …

White Men Vote Republican Because They’re Suckers

1,261 words

Amanda Marcotte recently wrote that “White men, as a group, vote Republican because they vote their resentments.”

The New York Times article she cited didn’t say or even imply anything about resentment. It did say that straight, working-class white men vote Republican because the Democratic Party has devoted the majority of its resources to appealing to women, gays and the various groups of less-white men who are nostalgically referred to as “minorities.” Read more …

Paleofuturism for the Man; Archeofuturism for the People

PALEOFUTURISM

There are 3 types of people in the world: People who haven’t heard of the paleo diet, people who have tried the paleo diet, and people who can’t wait to tell you how stupid it is.

People in the last group want to tell you how we’re still evolving, how different groups evolved differently, how you couldn’t live like our ancestors even if you tried, how the paleo diet isn’t sustainable for the world’s growing population, how SCIENCE! can produce superior health and athleticism, and how all that meat and fat will make you obese and give you a heart attack.

Is This What A Male Feminist’s Brain Looks Like?

This could still turn out to be some kind of hoax, but it appears that prominent male feminist Hugo Schwyzer went off his meds after his recent public shaming and ~~desperate cry for attention~~ “suicide attempt,” and then had a massive confessional Twitter meltdown.

Your personal shortcomings and natural talents are not moral triumphs.

When I read about someone preaching sexual abstinence, I want to see what that person looks like. I don’t want to be lectured about the virtues of chastity by someone who would obviously have trouble getting laid.

No One Wants Crazy People To Have Guns, But Who Decides Who Is Crazy?

It sounds like a common sense measure.

Keep guns out of the hands of people who are “unstable.”

You don’t want people who might “snap” to have access to an arsenal, right?

Anarcho-Fascism

McNeillFasces

Graphic by Harold Arthur McNeill

1,158 words

Finnish translation here

“In a society that has abolished every kind of adventure the only adventure that remains is to abolish the society.”

—Situationist graffito, May 1968

As a political ideology, fascism was a mixed bag of 20th-century ideas. Its athletic presence hung with flirty, politically expedient schemes like universal suffrage, in many ways last century’s fascism was defined by its responses to other political movements of the time—like Marxism and liberal capitalism.

“I’m Sorry, I Just Don’t Keep Up With The Ladies’ Gossip Magazines.”

2,823 words

Every few days, a reader sends me a link to some head-exploding lunacy lobbed from the tie-dyed tents over at Camp Vagina. The guys mean well. Most are just offering grist for the mill, or something they want me to “get out there” to a wider audience. I think sometimes they are hoping to prod me into some kind of thumotic rage, so that I’ll tear apart the offending essay and write down the words that they feel. Read more …

The Manly Barbarian:
Masculinity & Exploit in Veblen’s Theory of the Leisure Class

1,371 words

Thorstein Veblen’s Theory of the Leisure Class was written as a treatise on economics, but in pieces—like the work of Freud and Darwin—it reads today like an early stab at evolutionary psychology. I decided to dig into it after reading Venkatesh Rao’s brilliant essay “The Return of the Barbarian.” Read more …
