  • McDonald McTrump’s Magnificent French Fry Stunt

    Counter Currents - Oct 24th 2024 10:34am EDT

    1,053 words As we head into the home stretch of the most recent Most Important Election of Our Lifetime, I find it impossible to avoid electoral chitchat no matter how hard I try.

  • So, Why the First “A” in NAXALT?

    Counter Currents - Oct 23rd 2024 11:36am EDT

    2,821 words To claim that measures and precautions should not be taken towards a group of X’s just because NAXALT (Not All X’s Are Like That) is such an absurd argument that it is hardly used except to justify ―in an artificial, finalistic way― politically correct causes. This argument is hardly taken into consideration in […]

    1,817 words When Israel resorts to extreme violence against its neighbors, the fallout is felt throughout the world, especially in the United States and the wider West. Iran, for instance, will activate its terror networks in Europe. We have already seen domestic unrest as rival groups clash in major cities throughout the civilized world, the […]

    J.M.W. Turner. The Decline of the Carthaginian Empire 1,411 words The twenty-first century is nearly a quarter done, and things don’t look so good.

  • Of Pure Blood

    Counter Currents - Oct 22nd 2024 9:30am EDT

    3,290 words I forgot who said it, but it went like this: There is a difference between best movies and favorite movies. You might know objectively that Citizen Kane is the best movie of all time (I happen to disagree), but few people would name it as their favorite movie. A favorite has nothing to […]

  • Restoring the White Voice on College Campuses

    Counter Currents - Oct 21st 2024 1:53pm EDT

    1,919 words You can buy Greg Johnson’s White Identity Politics here. American universities are clearly antagonistic to the concept of a unified white identity. The academy is now dominated by an egalitarian left that overwhelmingly favors multiculturalism, affirmative action, and, in some circles, white replacement.

    3,329 words Catherine Ruth Pakaluk Hannah’s Children: The Women Quietly Defying the Birth Dearth New York: Regnery Gateway, 2024 It is uncanny how many contemporary ideals find their common denominator in the rejection of procreation—much of environmentalism, the liberation of homosexuality and other nonprocreative sex, careerism for women, easy divorce, “family planning,” and the envisioning […]

  • Nice ‘n’ Sleazy: 10 Disreputable American Albums

    Counter Currents - Oct 21st 2024 8:59am EDT

    3,037 words The word “sleaze” has a strange history which has left it with a number of meanings. In the UK, it has become associated with political corruption, and has recently been brought back into service as Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer continues to let down our old school by accepting inappropriate gifts and services […]

  • Are Normies the Real Extremists?

    Counter Currents - Oct 21st 2024 7:53am EDT

    2,650 words What is an extremist? It’s a word which is thrown around a lot these days. I’ve never considered myself to be an extremist. Aside from going through a brief phase of the convert’s zeal a few years back as I digested the “red pill”, I’ve never been a particularly extreme person when it […]

  • Why I Voted for Vance-Trump

    Counter Currents - Oct 18th 2024 10:03am EDT

    2,514 words This year, the Trump train has been more like an emotional roller-coaster. My decision to vote for Trump has flip-flopped almost as much as Trump has.

    Counter Currents - Oct 18th 2024 10:02am EDT

    1,319 words I recently re-read the following article from 2020, where I made my case for Donald Trump. I thought it was well-argued and prescient. Although I am even more disappointed by Trump now than four years ago, I think the arguments still stand. All you need to do is mentally substitute “Harris” for “Biden.” […]

    1,294 words I can just imagine Woody Allen’s elevator pitch for Blue Jasmine: “Imagine Streetcar Named Desire, only Blanche du Bois was married to Bernie Madoff.” Yes, Blue Jasmine (2013) is derivative.
