Michigan Militia members, who will presumably be in the front lines of whatever civil war the US ends up having.

A friend from Oklahoma recently texted me:
How close are we from civil war anyway?
My reply came suddenly and effortlessly, almost as if a higher power had seized my typing fingers:
I don’t think Americans have their shit together enough to even pull off a civil war. (more…)

Spencer J. Quinn is one of Counter-Currents’ most prolific writers. I personally enjoy reading his articles on topics such as forgotten figures in history, music, and current political issues. In addition to writing articles, Spencer is the author of several books. His love of wisdom is evidenced by his avatar, Thucydides. (more…)

Paul Fussell
Class: A Guide Through the American Class System
New York: Summit Books, 1983 (first edition; many since)
Written in 1980-82 and published in 1983, Paul Fussell’s Class: A Guide Through the American Status System is one of those rare books that most literate people seem to have heard of, say they want to read if they haven’t, and have fierce opinions about whether they’ve read it or not. I see this last aspect frequently on social media. (more…)

While in 1998 immigrants accounted for 1.6% of Spain’s population (637,000, to be added to another half a million gypsies holding Spanish passports), only 11 years later, in 2009, they already accounted for 12.1% — a figure that does not include those who became naturalized in the meantime. (more…)

The people who have been born into and grown up completely steeped in the modern world have many problems on their plate. One of these problems is the question of freedom. However, one man’s “freedom” is not necessarily another’s. (more…)

“There can be no Russian networks in Europe that split the EU from within, those that are trying to help Russia make as much money as possible even now. Everyone knows very well who in the European Union opposes humanity and common sense, and who does nothing at all to help establish peace in Ukraine. (more…)
A skull from among the 8,000 ethnic Bosnians killed in Srebrenica in 1995. Is this what the breakup of the US would look like as well?

I can’t understand why Steve Sailer thinks the United States must stay intact just because the breakup of the Soviet Union didn’t go as smoothly as it could have. In his recent essay “Let’s Not Break Up the USA,” Sailer serves up a nice dish of erudition regarding post-Soviet republic woes, but offers little more than a Eurasian cautionary tale for those of us who feel a racial divorce might be the best path forward for the white populations in North America. Despite all the potholes Sailer predicts, this remains, in my mind, the less frightening alternative. (more…)

Dear American friends,
In recent years, it has been the case that wherever there is a war in the world, the Americans are there. The current civil war between two kinds of Russians is no different. Wherever a coup takes place and a country that was previously livable descends into chaos and violence, the Americans are there. (more…)

In my last essay, I predicted that the trucker convoys would either hasten the fall of the regime if they were a success, or would hasten the fall of lukewarm conservatism if they failed. It has become painfully clear that they have failed. Lukewarm conservativism that conserves nothing will still continue, but in a lesser state. (more…)

The Great Replacement is both a demographic and a cultural phenomenon. It consists, on the one hand, of encouraging low birth rates among Europeans and their colonial offshoots by promoting secularism and hedonism, guilt and shame for their ancestors and culture, and the virtues of childlessness. Simultaneously, its architects support open borders and increased immigration from the Third World, ostensibly for humanitarian motives or to compensate for population decline among the native-born population. Needless to say, these massive demographic changes will affect every facet of American life in the years ahead. (more…)
