Nepřátelská média se ptají: „Uráží vás to?“ (na snímku komentátor CNN Don Lemon, snažící se vyvolat debatu o slovu „nigger,“ které ve stejný den /22. června 2015/ použil prezident USA Barack Obama v rozhovoru s Marcem Maronem. Inu, co je dovoleno pánovi, není dovoleno kmánovi)

Zasluhují si běloši zemřít za to, že nahlas řekli „negr“? Černoši za nadšeného pobízení mainstreamových médií stále častěji odpovídají souhlasným „ano!“. (more…)

Several trends in the United States related to home ownership are developing that I find rather startling. Some of those trends have been slow, taking decades to mature, and perhaps have been noticed by many. Other trends are more acute temporally, springing up only over the past few years. These trends have altered the landscape of home ownership, and overall have made home ownership and housing security far more difficult for most Americans. (more…)

Earlier this week, I woke to devastating news: A longtime friend of mine, Robin, whom I had met while I was an undergrad — at the same time that I first began writing things that would eventually find their way to Counter-Currents — had passed away. My old friend’s son contacted me by phone and informed me that she had left us a few days before, and that he had wanted to let me know since she’d mentioned our friendship to him previously. (more…)

Introduction to The Batman
The new Gotham city, presented by director Matt Reeves and inhabited/stalked by Robert Pattinson’s Bruce Wayne, is gothic and atmospheric. On the first of two viewings, I found myself so enamored by the backgrounds and music that I was less focused on the dialogue. Gotham is not merely a backdrop to the events taking place but is brought to life and is almost a character in its own right. Bruce Wayne’s “Batcave” is an abandoned subway station beneath Wayne Tower, which also houses his gothic-styled manor. (more…)

Let’s talk ice cream machines. They’re a minor aspect of your daily life that you might not even notice much. Chick-fil-a, Shake Shack, McDonald’s, Wendy’s, In-N-Out, Steak ‘n Shake, Dairy Queen, Rally’s — they all have them. Your local family-owned and regional chain restaurants have them as well. They are everywhere, and I contend we can look at the ice cream machine as a miniature social-capital and livability data-outpost because of their ubiquity. We can get to know a particular store or area of town by its ice cream machine functionality level. (more…)

The restaurant news headline read “300 Pizza Huts are Closing.” It was sent to me by a friend in the middle of the night, and I was up working, knowing what I would find before I opened it. (more…)

Richard Houck’s three-part series, “Anarcho-Tyranny 2020 & Beyond: The Age of COVID-19, BLM, & Apex Parasites” is now available in audio format, read by Gaddius Maximus. Topics include how the absurdities of the COVID-19 lockdowns, which disproportionately target law-abiding whites, reflect the accelerating growth of anarcho-tyranny in Western societies; the hefty toll that the double standards of an elite that simultaneously encourages mass rioting and violence in opposition to whites while holding whites responsible for all evil, including COVID-19, have taken on the US; (more…)

Part III: Apex Parasites
While Americans were out of work in incredible numbers, terribly behind on rent and mortgage payments, committing suicide, and losing their businesses, Congress held a group therapy session where they could regale us all with tall tales of how they “almost died” during the Capitol protests on January 6, 2021.

Part II: Black Lives Matter
There is much to be said about the Black Lives Matter movement as a whole and its accompanying narratives. The obvious question is why – as in, “Why do Black Lives Matter?” and “Why should I care?” Is there any evidence to support this claim? It’s not exactly self-evident. (more…)

Not long after 2020 began, most of our lives were deeply disrupted. I had been following rumblings from China about a fast-spreading and potentially lethal virus for over a month before the first case was announced in the United States in late January. Several weeks after that, my last semester of law school was cut short by an early Spring Break in early March, and then a move to virtual classes for the remainder of the term. (more…)

Beautiful Losers is a collection of essays by the late Samuel Francis, who influenced not only my work, but much of the Right in America today. The omnibus opens with an introduction and brief history of the post-World War II conservative movement in America up to 1993, when Beautiful Losers was published. (more…)

I believe there is a hierarchy/pyramid to culture, I have been working on this theory for a while now, I think it’s developed enough to at least introduce the concept and framework here as a blog post. It will deal with how culture operates both in theory and conceptually, as well as in practice with examples of people interacting with culture in day-to-day life experiences. (more…)
