In a free society people should be free to make bad choices—within reason. Innocently enjoying a cigarette on your neighbor’s back patio during a Super Bowl party certainly qualifies as reasonable. If a person wants to risk dying of lung cancer in his mid-fifties, that’s his decision. Smoking is an example of a destructive and annoying habit, which, when practiced in the privacy of one’s home or in pre-designated public spaces, should not be banned. (more…)

Imagine existing as a distinct racial group on a continent for 400 years. Now imagine that your group’s greatest collective “achievement” is being freed from slavery — not rebelling against your slaveowners and freeing yourselves, but walking into freedom atop a red carpet of 600,000 or so bloody cracker corpses that reputedly died in the service of either freeing you or keeping you enslaved.

Ever since the dead-eyed, boyish-looking Audrey Hale blasted her way into the Nashville Covenant School on March 27, 2023 and killed three students and three adult staffers before two cops shot her dead, the unanswered question remains: Why did she do it?
Early speculation hinged around the fact that Hale had taken to calling herself “Aiden” and that her rampage was motivated by a desire to take “trans vengeance” against a hateful transphobic society that refused to accept that she was a “he.” But where was her “Tranifesto”? (more…)

One would think that news the FBI has arrested an active US Marine for threatening to go on a shooting rampage against US citizens would be a major news story.
But one would think wrong. As is so often the case, we have ourselves an inconvenient perpetrator and an unprotected target group.
Last Friday at a Marine base in Twentynine Palms, California, federal agents arrested 23-year-old black New Jersey native Joshua Cobb and charged him with transmitting a threat in interstate and foreign commerce. Their case hinges around this social-media post Cobb allegedly wrote on December 17, 2022: (more…)

Up until June 12, 1994, white America was convinced that O. J. Simpson was “one of the good ones.” When it turned out that he wasn’t — and that black America supported him, anyway — race relations took a permanent turn for the worse.
June 12 is my birthday and, possibly overdosing on cake, I’d fallen asleep in my Hollywood apartment around dusk, only to be rustled from slumber by my first wife, who shook me awake to say, “Jimmy — O.J. Simpson murdered his wife.” (more…)

Recently I was asked to make some subtle aesthetic adjustments to the Counter-Currents website. If I’ve done the job well, no one will even notice the changes. The task required me to go through the archives all the way back to the summer of 2010, the year Greg Johnson broke digital ground and Counter-Currents went online. (more…)

Billionaire tech titan Elon Musk shone a light across all nations and gave hope to tired and huddled anti-Semites everywhere on November 15 when he replied, “You have said the actual truth” to a Twitter user who wrote that “Jewish communties [sic] have been pushing the exact kind of dialectical hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them.” (more…)
