Librarians see themselves on the front lines on what it takes to bring revolution to the US. You need soldiers in the revolution so they are teaching kids to be little antifa activists who hate their own country and will act as a collective to bring about change. — Dan Kleinman of Safe Libraries, in the New York Post, September 10, 2022 (more…)

On Monday, I looked at my phone and saw the message, “They got Tucker.” Apparently the whole world knew that Tucker Carlson had been fired from Fox just a few minutes after Tucker himself. We still don’t know the cause. It is probably complicated. Tucker made a lot of enemies telling uncomfortable truths about the Great Replacement, big pharma, the January 6th hoax, and countless other evils and follies. But we do know who benefits and who is gored. The victors are the globalist elites who control America. The victims are the American people.  (more…)

This year, Counter-Currents is working to raise $300,000. Thus far, we are at $222,588.87, which is 74% of the way there. Thank you to everyone who has helped so far. We now have two weeks to raise $77,411.13. Let’s hope there’s a Christmas miracle! Full details on how to help appear below. But before that, a few words on what’s happening at Twitter.

I cheered when Elon Musk bought Twitter, promising to turn it into a free speech platform. (more…)

“The [scariest] shortcoming of the human race is our inability to understand the exponential function.” — Albert Allen Bartlett

To procreate, people need to be sociable enough to meet someone and decisive enough to choose them. Similarly, to make money they need to pick a career and shut out all other options. Such people excel in getting into power and then idiotically doing nothing as the world collapses around them. (more…)

Millennial Woes and Morgoth returned on the latest broadcast of Counter-Currents Radio to reminisce about the great Skeptic War and to answer listener questions, and it is now available for download and online listening. (more…)

The week of September 18-24 in the year 2022 is Banned Books Week in libraries across the United States. It’s something of an oxymoron, because the library will feature books that are “banned” — sort of doing the opposite of banning them by calling attention to them. A better name would be “Books Banned by Other People Week.”

A better way of celebrating Banned Books Week would be to feature books banned on Amazon, where we used to be able to browse Jared Taylor’s White Identity, Greg Johnson’s New Right versus Old Right, and Kevin MacDonald’s Culture of Critique. (more…)

Censorship is not always about hiding secrets. Sometimes it is just an assertion of raw power. — Nick Cohen, You Can’t Read This Book

There is something special about being ten years old. Every child knows this on his tenth birthday, crossing the shadow line from single to double digits. It means you’re all grown up. A similar thing happens to books, particularly those which concern themselves with politics and metapolitics. We read them again a decade after they were born and ask, “Well, you’re a big boy now. What have you got to say for yourself?” (more…)

Self-described Nazi Thomas Leech, who was recently convicted in the UK on terrorism charges, shows that today’s Nazis don’t really live up to their more fashionable predecessors.

A rose by any other name

When I was growing up, or at least getting bigger, my parents were fairly liberal about swearing in the house. “Cussing” is, I believe, an American equivalent. This was not an injunction for or against swearing an oath on the Bible. But rules are rules, and there was always one word banned in our house: the dread C-word. How nice to be reminded of this childhood memory by Britain’s National Health Service (NHS), still wasting money after all these years. They have indeed banned the C-word. (more…)

Nothing has given me more respect for the social media site Gab than watching other people try to do what Andrew Torba has done.

For many years, Gab was sort of a joke. Its reputation was as a cesspool of the Alt Right’s most socially dysfunctional elements — people who had not only been banned from every other social media site (back when getting banned required a lot more effort) but also from most White Nationalist message boards for being too spergy.

Two wild stories came out of the Breadtube scene within a 12-hour period earlier this week. Perhaps both deserve their own article, but they happened at the same time, and they might be related. I’ll explain why at the end.

The first story occurred on Monday night, when Communist Breadtuber Vaush announced to the world that he was a federal informant. (more…)
