  • The Plymouth 400 Symposium Shining Some Light on the Invisible Race

    Counter Currents - Dec 18th 2020 6:30am EST

    Gloucester Fisherman’s Memorial overlooking Gloucester Harbor, Gloucester, Massachusetts (Bronze, 1925) 5,880 words The defining characteristic of WASPs is that they are much less ethnocentric than other peoples; indeed for all practical purposes Anglo-Saxon Protestants appear to be all but completely bereft of in-group solidarity. They are therefore open to exploitation by free-riders from other, more […]

  • Dog Lives Matter

    Counter Currents - Dec 16th 2020 6:51pm EST

    1,821 words As someone whose formal training is in journalism and who also likes to pretend that journalism at least still exists somewhere—even as a concept—I’ve bitten my lip bloody for five years as this “Black Lives Matter” chant has grown both ubiquitous and deafening, but not once have I heard a reporter do his […]

  • The Jew Thing

    Counter Currents - Dec 15th 2020 6:45am EST

    Phil Eiger Newmann, Schumer, 2020. 1,853 words I gathered from the conversation that the owner of the name had once been a regular contributor to much more widely read conservative publications, the kind that have salaried congressional correspondents and full-service LexisNexis accounts, but that he was welcome at those august portals no longer. In all […]

    Phil Eiger Newmann, Any Day Now, 2020. 1,899 words Since we live in a world dominated by white men — heck, even the rock-climbing world is “dominated by white men” — it’s odd to behold how openly hostile most of this world’s major institutions are toward white men.

  • Mara Ros’ Hija de Europa

    Counter Currents - Dec 11th 2020 6:15am EST

    1,584 words Mara Ros is a vocalist from Spain, someone whose heart is in the right place. She doesn’t have a public presence, which may well be sensible after their government has become increasingly globalist. I’ll assume that she’s a very private person, so I won’t speak of what little I do know about her. […]

  • Five Minutes with the Average Voter

    Counter Currents - Dec 10th 2020 6:45am EST

    Phil Eiger Newmann, The Arena, 2020. 1,431 words Any belief, no matter how desperately well-intentioned, in the efficacy and wisdom of democracy depends on the fundamentally flawed notion that the average voter is anything loftier than an easily frightened and brainwashed lab rat. There’s a quote famously misattributed to Churchill about how “the best argument […]

  • The Mere Thought of Racism

    Counter Currents - Dec 7th 2020 6:30am EST

    1,273 words For the better part of the last 60 years, social engineers have been conducting a rigorous sociopolitical campaign in which they have attempted to merge biology with ideology. More precisely, they’ve conducted a successful experiment that has amalgamated the tangible traits of race with the abstract ideological concepts of –isms. The result is […]

  • Remembering Pentti Linkola (December 7, 1932 — April 5, 2020)

    Counter Currents - Dec 7th 2020 6:15am EST

    1,197 words Like other Nordic countries, Finland has a strong conformist mentality. The Law of Jante is in force to keep too headstrong or conflict-seeking individuals leashed.
