One of the people whom I interviewed for my biography of Jonathan Bowden was Nick Griffin, the former leader of the British National Party. Griffin appointed Bowden, its most popular orator, as the party’s Cultural Officer. Griffin remarked something to the effect of how a lot of people kind of worship Bowden, and if you write his biography — if you present the Bowden of History, not the Bowden of Faith — then you will upset these kinds of people. I was later amazed by how prescient Griffin had been. (more…)

Edward Dutton
Shaman of the Radical Right: The Life and Mind of Jonathan Bowden
Imperium Press, 2025

It has just over one year since the publication of Edward Dutton’s biography of orator and activist Jonathon Bowden. As of March 29th, it has now been exactly 14 years since its subject matter passed away at the tragic age of 49, an event that Dutton’s well-researched biography sheds new light on.[1] The book itself was a timely affair. Bowden has progressively morphed into an online cult figure who, like many of his heroes, obtained greater fame posthumously than while alive; his distinctive bellow haunts the dissident internet with riveting soundbites taken from numerous intense and spellbinding lectures.

What’s the most valuable lesson a Western child can learn at school today? That they now inhabit a deliberately unfair two-tier social system, in which it’s one rule for Muslims, one rule for everyone else—a two-tier system which now runs direct from the classroom to courtroom.

It is the end of Ramadan this week, a festival of which I was blissfully unaware until long after I entered my teens. The only time I heard the term as a young child was when adults around me referred to Pakistani immigrants as “The Ramadamadingdong.” (more…)

Professor William S. Blau, Emeritus Professor of Anesthesiology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, belongs to an exceedingly small cohort of mainstream researchers willing to address what may prove humanity’s most consequential challenge: the gradual deterioration of our genetic inheritance. While countless scientists celebrate medical progress and the technological conquest of disease, Blau stands nearly alone in examining the troubling paradox at the heart of modern medicine. The interventions that enhance individual well-being may be quietly undermining the genetic integrity of our species. (more…)

The BBC—the supposedly politically neutral, internationally trusted, “Gold Standard of journalism” BBC—attempted to rig the American 2024 presidential election. There was so much “Fake News” about Russia interfering with the 2016 Presidential Election and which was proven to be “Fake News”, but the “real news”—which is so incredible that the British press can barely bring themselves to articulate it—is that the British Broadcasting Corporation thought they could get away with pushing the American Presidential Election towards Kamala Harris.

Nobel laureate Dr. James D. Watson, Chancellor, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory.

Many of the people who joined in the attacks on Watson in 2007 must have known that what he said about racial differences was accurate. After all, if he had simply been unaware of all the studies demonstrating that racial IQ gaps are environmental in origin, these could easily and quietly have been brought to his attention. There would have been no need to impugn the man’s character publicly.

Edward Dutton
Genius Under House Arrest: The Cancelation of James Watson
Washington: Academica Press, 2025

Ed Dutton’s latest offering is a continuation of two of his favorite themes: the nature of genius, and the personality profile of those who suffer from the woke mind virus. In October, 2007, the two clashed dramatically when James Watson, co-discoverer of the double helical structure of the DNA molecule, sparked a moral panic and was subjected to widespread character assassination for making some empirically accurate remarks on racial differences.

Charisma and creativity tend to be associated with mental instability. A detailed examination of the lives of highly eminent men by the psychiatrist Felix Post entitled “Creativity and Psychopathology” found that this was very frequently the case, especially among artists and writers. (more…)

When I published Shaman of the Radical Right: The Life and Mind of Jonathan Bowden, I genuinely didn’t expect there to be quite so much interest in it. I was mainly fascinated by Bowden’s psychology: what is the nature of someone, especially when they are manifestly eccentric, who is able to inspire such a posthumous following? (more…)

While we’ve entered the realm of online immortality,[1] let me end with some speculation on how Bowden’s shamanic methods have been absorbed, perhaps unknowingly, by the online Dissident Right, and even in the unlikeliest of places. (more…)

The most striking, and significant resemblance between all three is not the level of fame and influence they achieved in life, but their electronic or digital immortality: “Nothing Here Now But The Recordings.”[1] (more…)

What about film? Again, Bowden switches sides, and returns to align with Burroughs again, but not Neville. For some odd reason there’s no video of or by Neville; even the 26 episodes of his TV show went unrecorded. In Infinite Potential, Horowitz provides a transcript of the surviving audio of one episode; it’s interesting to “hear” Neville suavely moving in and out of commercials.[1] (more…)
