Aquilonius' essay on why the bourgeois ideal of whiteness, often venerated by the Right, is a problem even though America doesn't have anything better at present has been sprung from the paywall. https://counter-currents.com/2022/01/visions-of-a-new-whiteness/

ANNOUCEMENT: Our second annual Writing Competition is now live!
The theme for this year is "Small Victories". We are looking for stories and poems about personal triumphs and sacred things preserved, things that may not receive massive fanfare, but that are necessary, good, and beautiful nonetheless. This could be the birth of a child, the planting of a seed, the overcoming of a vice, a victory over an enemy, or anything else you think is relevant to the prompt. We encourage you to get creative with it and not to stick to clichés! The mood could be pensive, hopeful, inspirational, somber, melancholy, or anything else – but we remind entrants that we don’t solicit material that is gratuitously crass or disgusting, even if you think it makes a good point.
There are two submission categories: Poetry (of any style) and Short Story (fiction).
Two $600 prizes for best in each category
Two $400 prizes for the runner-up in each category

Putin's finest hour:
"Upon becoming President of the Russian Federation in 2000, Vladimir Putin summoned the most powerful business oligarchs of Russia to [Stalin's dacha at] Kuntsevo in what Sergei Pugachev (a participant in that meeting) described as a "very symbolic" move; another participant, Mikhail Khodorkovsky, said that by summoning them to Kuntsevo and by sitting in Stalin's office, Putin "wanted us to understand that we, as big businessmen, may have some power, but it is nothing compared to his power as the head of state."
Capitalists need the constant menace of the Red Scare if they are to behave. Contrast this to "liberal democracies," in which businessmen basically buy politicians and dictate policies to suit them.
This provides some insight into why sanctions don't deter Putin: economic sanctions only work on those who put money and commerce above all considerations of identity, nation, and state. Putin rejects that value system.

Every bad take on this war begins by reframing it so it is entirely about the US vs. Russia. Why complicate a narrative by dragging the Ukrainians into it?
I see it very differently. I stand for sovereign states versus empires. So the choice is clear. Ukraine has the right to choose its allies. They have suffered oppression and atrocities at the hands of Russians and have every reason to want to get into NATO and the EU. Russia's invasion of Ukraine crosses a moral line.
I hope that this crisis can be ended as quickly as possible, without escalation into another World War. The mindlessness and hysteria of Western "elites" are extremely dangerous.
But it is another form of mindlessness to decide that since you don't like Nancy Pelosi, you are going to root for Vladimir Putin.

The Maidan was a real revolution. Donetsk and Luhansk are Russian ops.

Here is something that most Westerners don't understand:
Nationalism in Eastern Europe exists in REALITY, while nationalism in the West only exists in THEORY, in Nationalist Narnia. Eastern Europeans have nations that they care about and are prepared to fight for. Nationalism in the West is hypothetical — it exists only as a political video game online, in the Metaverse.
The overwhelming reaction among Right-wingers in the West has been that Ukrainians should give up their REAL nationalism for purely THEORETICAL benefits. The country that suffered the Holodomor should accept being ruled by the Post-Soviet Empire, literally governed by a former KGB agent. Because American wiggers posting in forums think that would be "based" in their video game nationalism.
If Russia is the only force in the world that can protect nations from THE GAY, then what about other countries in Eastern Europe? What about Poland and Lithuania? They have managed to remain relatively normal in spite of being members of both EU and NATO. Should they ask to be ruled by Putin's Russia in order to make sure they don't become transvestites?
This is all extremely embarrassing and Marie Antoinette-ish, to be honest.

Probably the most honest analysis of the situation you'll see on a mainstream network
Imagination is an amazing thing. Spectators feel that THEY have won something when their sportsball team wins a game. Their T levels even go up.
How much of the Western reaction to the Russia-Ukraine war is just political spectator sports, where people choose Team Russia or Team America, and the Russia boosters feel they are beating Nancy Pelosi and George Soros when Russian troops advance?
