Technologická utopie a etnický nacionalismus

Greg Johnson

2,614 slov

English original here

Poznámka autora: Následuje přepis mé řeči, která zazněla na čtvrtém setkání fóra Scandza v Kodani 15. září 2018. Při svém minulém vystoupení na Scandza fóru jsem hovořil o nutnosti vytvořit zvláštní etnonacionalistické poselství pro všechny bělošské skupiny, včetně třeba fandů Star Treku. Následující řádky tedy budiž jakousi epištolou určenou „Trekkies“. Rád bych také poděkoval všem účastníkům i organizátorům fóra Skandza. (na videozáznam řeči se můžete podívat zde)

Towards a European Social Credit System

Nicholas R. Jeelvy

2,172 words

Reading about China’s social credit system makes me thank my lucky stars for not having been born Chinese. I imagine that living in a state of constant surveillance and constant submission would fray my nerves to the point of aggressive antisocial behavior. Read more …

Masterpieces of Aryan Thought 4
Ezra Pound’s Guide to Kulchur

Quintilian

985 words

Ezra Pound’s Guide to Kulchur (1938) is one of those unfortunate great books (think Spengler’s Decline of the West and any book by Henry Adams) that is often mentioned but seldom read. The book was meant as a guide to the essential philosophy, art, economics, history, and ethics from Confucius to the 20th century as uniquely interpreted by Pound.

This and the ABC of Reading (1934) constituted the core texts of the “Ezra-versity,” the informal seminars that Pound held before World War II for those acolytes who came to visit him in Rapallo, Italy. Read more …

Author’s Note:

This is the text of my talk at the fourth meeting of the Scandza Forum in Copenhagen, Denmark, on September 15, 2018. In my previous Scandza Forum talk, I argued that we need to craft ethnonationalist messages for all white groups, even Trekkies. This is my Epistle to the Trekkies. I want to thank everybody who was there, and everybody who made the Forum possible. Read more …

Notes on Revolution in Chuck Palahniuk’s Adjustment Day

Greg Johnson

1,088 words

Chuck Palahniuk’s Adjustment Day is a highly imaginative and entertaining novel that reflects a long and deep immersion in the online world of White Nationalism, from the best of it to the worst and all shades in between.

I don’t have much to add to the reviews of Adjustment Day by Jef Costello and James O’Meara, so I wish to focus here on some of Palahniuk’s thoughts about how an ethnonationalist revolution might occur, and how it might go wrong. Read more …

The National Dividend

Sandy Wolfe-Murray

C. H. Douglas, founder of Social Credit

1,949 words

When, during World War I, C. H. Douglas was sent to sort out the accounting muddle in an aircraft factory in Farnborough, England he noticed that the factory was generating costs faster than it was distributing incomes. Replicating the process at a hundred other large British firms he found that the total costs were always more than the money distributed in dividends, wages, and salaries.[1]

Douglas became concerned that the men who labored in the factories producing the necessities of life could not always afford to purchase the items they had worked to produce, Read more …

Social Credit Women of the Right, Part III:
Anti-War Activism & Conclusion

Brian Thorn

2,540 words

Part 3 of 3. Part 1 here. Part 2 here.

Social Credit Women’s Anti-War Activism

Perhaps surprisingly, given most SC men’s support for Cold War anti-communism,[1] a significant number of Socred women expressed opposition to war and violence. The anti-war perspective was an extension of SC women’s adoption of maternal feminist goals. First-wave feminists and Social Credit women portrayed wars as something started by men who were willing to send husbands, brothers, and sons to fight in useless conflicts that would break up families and destroy rural and small town communities, as well as introducing non-white migrants into Alberta.

There is drawn no boundary,
No hard, wretched earth-clod bars our way,
And we sail across the sea,
And we wander countries far away.

–“Human Pride,” Karl Marx

When President Trump issued an executive order temporarily banning immigrants from seven countries, he quickly found out that the ability to associate with people of one’s choice was not so easy – even for the denizens of a superpower. His order was quickly challenged in court and worldwide demonstrations demanded the right of entry to America for all, even if the Americans don’t want to associate with particular people.
