Part 1 of 2 (Part 2 here)
Anglo–American whites were dispossessed in their own country in the two decades between 1913 and 1933.[1] The dispossession happened by degrees, and the it mostly went unnoticed. It wasn’t until the lead-up to the Second World War that a few far-sighted old-stock Americans recognized the problem, as well as the fact that President Franklin Delano Roosevelt was maneuvering the country into an unnecessary war in Europe. Roosevelt’s pursuit of conflict was made on behalf of ethnonationalist Jews and foreign powers. (more…)

The situation for whites in America at present is bad, but it would be far worse if not for the efforts of an upper-class American man of science named Henry Fairfield Osborn (1857-1935). Osborn’s life and work was mostly related to unlocking the secrets of biology and evolution, but he became involved in the immigration restriction debate at the turn of the twentieth century. His efforts helped bring about the 1924 immigration reform which stabilized America’s demographics, allowed the European immigrants who could assimilate into Anglo–American culture to do so, and kept Asians and other non-white groups out.

Part 1 of 2
The 1992 United States presidential election was one in which both candidates for the two mainstream parties offered the electorate nothing more than sweeping neo-liberal economic policies as well as continued military involvement in far-off foreign lands. The third-party candidate who had different ideas was Ross Perot, a Texas billionaire. Perot won 18% of the national vote, taking votes which otherwise might have gone to Bush, thus helping Bill Clinton to win. (more…)

Jack Hinson’s One-Man War
Gretna, La.: Pelican, 2009Pitting oneself against the modern world can be a lonely endeavor. Sure, we can find company on the Internet. But if any of us has fellow travelers in our day-to-days lives, then we should consider ourselves lucky. I am sure we all can appreciate the lone person who stands athwart history, yelling “Stop!” and meaning it at the same time. It’s a rough road, but if you do it well, it can be a splendid thing.

Originality of thought and a command of words give him a maturity of style beyond his years. In speech or essay he is never dull and his work should always be interesting. — Peter Cook’s school report, aged 14
I know I’ve been destructive. What I do reflects the idiocy and chaos within myself. — Peter Cook

A Martyr Speaks
CPA Book Publishers, 1994White racialism is demonized in Western countries today, but this was not always so, and will not always be so.

They are relying on us to do the hard work of building a better future for our people. (more…)

Part 2 of 2 (Part 1 here)
Nero was only 16 when he became Emperor. His coming to power had nevertheless been enabled by several murders and/or suspiciously timely deaths. Claudius may or may not have died accidentally, but Narcissus, who favored Britannicus and the Senator Silanus, were poisoned almost certainly on the orders of Nero’s mother. (more…)

Nero: Wahnsinn und Wirklichkeit
Hamburg: Rowohlt Buchverlag, 2023Among those able to name any Roman emperors, Nero is likely to be on their list. Although he was Roman Emperor for only 14 years, from 54 to 68 AD, he is widely viewed as one of the most famous or infamous of all of them, strongly associated with the persecution of the Christians and the murder of both his mother and wife, and he is widely seen as the embodiment of tyranny.

“I was raised Lutheran.”
“That’s not what I asked.” — Thomas Harris, HannibalI am a sick man. I am an angry man. — Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Notes from Underground
“I am one thing,” wrote Friedrich Nietzsche, “my writings another.” Although a few decades after his death this aphorism would chime with the Derridean, post-structuralist dictum that there is “nothing outside the text,” a hermeneutic approach to philosophy excludes the philosopher’s life to its detriment.
