  • Barbie

    Counter Currents - Jul 25th 2023 5:35pm EDT

    1,629 words Leftists ruin everything. Nothing, not even children’s toys, is immune from their hateful ideology. A case in point is Greta Gerwig’s Barbie. There are countless women who played with Barbie dolls as children, put them aside when they grew up, and occasionally think nostalgically about them without ever suspecting that they were the […]

    Richard Bilkszto 1,206 words Fighting back using only the weapons your enemy allows you to use will always fail. This is why we should beware of any so-called allies who insist that we should stick with such dull, worn-out weapons. Either they want us to lose, or they are too clueless to realize how useless […]

    3,033 words Part 1 of 2 The celebrated American writer Jack London is best known for stories of adventure such as White Fang, The Call of the Wild, and “To Build a Fire” — the last being a chilling tale, indeed.

  • The Scottish Mr. Bond? An Interview with Mystic

    Counter Currents - Jul 24th 2023 7:03am EDT

    1,798 words There has been a Mr. Bond-shaped hole in the National Socialist rap scene ever since ZOG sent the Austrian troubadour up the river for the crime of being a genius. But fear not, for I see from perusing the still-active Mr. Bond fan pages that the white race is continuing to produce lyrical […]

  • Oppenheimer

    Counter Currents - Jul 21st 2023 2:05pm EDT

    1,266 words Christopher Nolan is one of my favorite living directors. The Dark Knight Trilogy, Inception, Interstellar, and Dunkirk are all big, eye-catching Hollywood spectacles, but with a difference. They are highly imaginative, deal with serious themes, have compelling dramatic conflicts, and are often quite moving. Nolan is not particularly politically correct, either. Granted, his […]

    1,942 words I am not ashamed to say that I cried throughout this entire movie. It’s those who see it and don’t have to at least fight back a few tears who should be ashamed.

    Counter Currents - Jul 17th 2023 12:52pm EDT

    1,456 words The following is a commemoration for Willis A. Carto, who was born 97 years ago today. For me, one of the great takeaways from the Willis Allison Carto Online Presidential Library is watching the conservative mainstream drift off into the distance while Mr. Carto basically stayed in the same place.
