French nationalist, Breton regionalist webzine Breizh-Info interviews Greg Johnson on the occasion of the French translation of The White Nationalist Manifesto.
"At the same time, carefully cultivated hatred for people of the Caucasian persuasion is often expressed, more often verbally than kinetically, by individuals who, though in no danger whatsoever of being mistaken for Lithuanians or Faroese, might well be described as 'nearly white.'"

As far as I know, the blackest people in the world, the Dinka of Sudan, harbor little, if any, systematic dislike for people of unmistakably European descent.
"Gatien, in a kind of transcendental deduction, realized that if the audience was now the show, then the show itself has its own show: 'Even though no one readily admits it, the mundane reason anyone comes out to a club is for people-watching.'β

In Henderson the Rain King, the titular Eugene Henderson, despite his worldly success, is tormented by an inner voice crying out "I want, I want, I want.β
"Yet Garland wants us to focus on January 6, while remaining curiously reticent about the unpunished and unidentified murderer of Ashli Babbitt and the persistent rumors and evidence that many of the protestors were either let into the Capitol by police or were FBI plants to begin with. Have you noticed how Garlandβs precious FBI is so loath to investigate that?"

"For example, take a gander at 35-year-old Nashea Brown. She stands accused of terrorizing a Walmart in Knoxville, Tennessee by taking off her clothes, defecating on herself, and wielding an ax at others. The news report states she 'was found in the sporting goods section with an ax and a knife tucked into her bra,' and I think thereβs a participle dangling somewhere there along with her presumably dangling chocolatey teats β unless this miracle woman is capable of tucking an ax into her bra."

According to police detective Brandon Lockhart, Justin Roberts has confessed to the shootings as well as admitted that he strictly targeted white males.
"Undine, being a water spirit, almost makes her the genus loci of Berlin. The city was built on sandy marshes, and Berlinβs water table lies within a few feet of the surface. Many foundations for buildings have to be poured by scuba divers."

Undine | Counter-Currents
Christian Petzold's Undine, set in contemporary Berlin, begins with Undine Wibeau having coffee with Johannes, her boyfriend.
"Orwell knew that many people in England would enthusiastically crush private life there too. In his wonderful little essay 'Some Thoughts on the Common Toad' (1946), he pointed out one of the great truths of existence: 'a toad has about the most beautiful eye of any living creature.' But he also said that 'I know by experience that a favourable reference to "Nature" in one of my articles is liable to bring me abusive letters.'"

I agree with Cicero that anyone with a library and a garden lacks for nothing, but itβs weeds and wildflowers that I enjoy most.
"And the academy wanted it to be very clear to students that when they went home for winter break and mom was going to a BLM protest or dad was announcing his transition, that was not the moment for the Olympian gaze."

The Rise & Fall of David Hume, Archetype | Counter-Currents
Leftists in the United Kingdom, eager to get in on the outrage that followed the drug overdose of George Floyd, complained that David Hume was a racist.
"Though the paper remains influential, critics have misinterpreted the findings. The argument is that Europeans established extractive institutions in regions where the environment was inhospitable to long-term settlement to reap short-term gains. Although the authors are not incorrect, their conclusion more broadly confirms the resource course. Economic literature suggests that an abundance of resources fails to stimulate innovation. Resource-rich countries are afforded several options to make money, so they are not pressured to innovate, hence marketing their assets could be a cheaper alternative."

The Legacy of Western Colonialism
We are yet to understand the exasperation of the anti-colonialism movement. Frequently, activists denounce colonialism without giving just cause.
"Film noir is about sin, the wages of sin, and occasionally, itβs about light and shade and spaces in between. I donβt think Jews really grasp the concept of sin. Sin is not mere degeneracy or hedonism. Sin is consciously choosing what one knows to be evil. In Farewell, My Lovely, Phillip Marlow says he likes 'smooth shiny girls, hardboiled and loaded with sin.' I donβt think you have to be a Christian to understand what he means by that, but you do have to be a gentile."

In my opinion, the American movie is the United Statesβ greatest contribution to world culture, even more than pop music.
"We can now see that Kantβs theoretical philosophy . . . and his moral philosophy converge, and that they move toward a genuinely radical new position. And this position is once more an explicit expression of a basic trend that had always been latent in modernity itself, a trend in the modern Zeitgeist: the conviction that what is is nothing more than material to be transformed according to the subjectβs ideas and intentions. Further, this trend is now underwritten by Kantβs moral idealism: we have a duty to transform what is according to our vision of what ought to be."

"Conservatives were thrilled with the bishopsβ proposal and felt it was necessary to induce politicians to follow church teaching. But the intense backlash doesnβt appear to show it changing political behavior. Moreover, the flock may be more inclined to side with Biden."

A Christian Conservative Resurgence? | Counter-Currents
Americaβs two largest conservative congregations -- the Catholic Church and the Southern Baptist Convention -- experienced major internal battles last week.
"Perhaps the saddest aspect of Londonβs observations is the way in which the poor will still cheer and weep at the pomp and pageantry of those partly responsible for their plight. Londonβs visit to his namesake city coincided with the coronation, on August 9, 1902, of King Edward VII, and London viewed the procession of the new monarch and his Queen, Alexandra. The chapter is one of the most powerful in the book, and shows both Londonβs skills as a journalist, and the fathomless sadness of celebration among those Abyss-dwellers who require something to celebrate, as they have nothing else."
