Abstract

This article critically examines two intertwined narratives circulating within European identitarian and dissident Right-wing circles: first, that Volodymyr Zelensky is an agent of supranational Jewish interests; and second, that Ukraine is undergoing a deliberate program of ethnic replacement through the mass importation of African and Asian workers. Through analysis of primary sources, available demographic data, and specialist literature on disinformation and geopolitics, the article demonstrates that both narratives rest on factual errors, systematic decontextualization, and mechanisms characteristic of Russian propaganda. The article proposes a tripartite reading of the Zelensky presidency, evaluates the nature and limits of Jewish influence within his inner circle, and concludes with a critical assessment of the Khazar theory and its implications for the conspiracy narrative.

As an American, I would like to think well of my country. But thanks to Donald Trump, we are now wondering if 175 Iranian schoolgirls were slaughtered by Jews as a Purim blood sacrifice to Yahweh — or slaughtered by an Affirmative Action-American as a sacrifice to Moloch or maybe Caliban. As an American taxpayer, I would like my government not to make me culpable in war crimes. But America is not ruled by and for Americans.

Propaganda is a 1928 tract written by Jewish marketing strategist (and Sigmund Freud nephew) Edward Bernays. It’s brief, but it could have been a lot briefer. Basically, Bernays has four main ideas about his eponymous subject matter, which he applies and reapplies over and over. It quickly gets tedious, but don’t let the tedium fool you. Propaganda is an extremely valuable work—especially for what white advocates are trying to accomplish today. (more…)

At the start of Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, both the “Dissident Right” and mainstream conservatives in America quickly became lockstep in praising Putin and criticizing Ukraine. Nationalists in Europe were not so easily taken in. Part of this was undoubtedly due to geographical proximity. The Russian bear looks more cute and cuddly the further away one is. (more…)

Wartime: Understanding and Behavior in the Second World War
New York: Oxford University Press, 1989

Most readers know Paul Fussell from his satiric Class: A Guide Through the American Status System, which, intended as a humorous study of American mores, has been accepted as a legitimate guideline to what H. L. Mencken called Boobis americanus. (more…)

Part of what we do here on the dissident Right is talk about the news. When there is a big conversation going on, we want to be part of it. Recently, conflict has again broken out between Israelis and Palestinians. The Internet is aflame with Zionists and anti-Zionists tweeting pictures of dead babies at each other and exchanging accusations of terrorism and genocidal intent. So the question for the dissident Right is, what is our take on this? And more specifically, whose side are we on? (more…)

Nayirah Al-Ṣabaḥ was a Kuwaiti girl who testified about Iraqi atrocities against babies to the US Congress in the run-up to the Persian Gulf War. Although her testimony later turned out to be false, it helped to draw the US into yet another military adventure on Israel’s behalf.

Erik Kirschbaum
Burning Beethoven: The Eradication of German Culture in the United States during World War I
New York: Berlinica Publishing, 2014

Much ink has been spilled over the travails faced by non-white minorities in the United States, but the persecution of German-Americans during the First World War has received scant attention. The few scholars who do address this forgotten chapter in American history, such as Erik Kirschbaum in Burning Beethoven, frame it as a morality tale about the evils of “xenophobia” and cast WASP Americans as the villains.

It can be amusing to observe how Leftists get “triggered” by a line of argumentation, a phrase, or merely a naughty word. All it takes is a brief utterance, and they come unglued. Granted, some of that is probably play-acting, and some is imperious bluster, but there are times when they really do flip and trip because their brains are unable to cope. (more…)
