"What if government malfeasance doesn’t rely on covering up, distorting, or presenting false facts to the public, or at least doesn’t solely rely on such distortions, but rather, relies on distorting the processes by which people think so that no skullduggery would be necessary to conceal malfeasance? Malfeasance would simply be done in the open and the people could be conditioned to ignore it, or even love it. All of the malfeasance that has caused the problems facing us as people in the modern world have been performed in the open. The 1965 immigration act? Completely open. BLM, civil rights, and critical race theory? Completely open."

"Of course, all the characters struggle against this world in the name of an old-fashioned, white, and Eurocentric liberalism that is also problematic these days. But it is impossible to overlook that the world they are struggling against is far more attractive than the world they ended up making for us."

"As anyone familiar with romcoms of the 1990s might easily predict, Adam finds, woos, and, in the end, wins, his Eve. What is somewhat surprising, however, is the degree to which Adam’s success in Cupid’s quest is depicted as a function of the old-fashioned virtues, skills, and attitudes he learned in the time capsule in which he grew up."

"Lohmeier’s exposé is a quick read, and it effectively points out the problem of critical race theory while offering an effective way to return to the appearance of inter-racial unity. However, Lohmeier was relieved of command, his suggestions were not taken seriously by the military establishment, and non-whites in the military continue to endorse violence on social media. . . . It is thus clear that not much will change."

"Joseph Goebbels managed to get ahold of a copy of the film and was amused to find that he was in it. 'I myself play a main role and not even a particularly unpleasant one.' He concluded, 'But I do not consider the film dangerous otherwise. It arouses fear in our enemies rather than anger and hate.'”

Counter-Currents Radio no. 347 with Lipton Matthews has been sprung from the paywall.

"How men treat women is a sign of their character. Think of the character signatures of Teddy Kennedy, Harvey Weinstein, and Jeffery Epstein. The feminist thrust toward social atomization strips away the opportunity for men to be “men” in that best sense of the word. Men offer women what other women can’t, and when they do it right, everyone is better off. Women at their best bring out the best in men."

"I think the question we should ask is this: If the satire found in This is Spinal Tap evinces a hostile racial agenda on the part of the artist, then what satires don’t do this? Does Oscar Wilde treat his upper-crust subjects any differently in The Importance of Being Earnest? How about the P. G. Wodehouse Jeeves novels? Do these have an 'anti-goy' agenda as well?"

"In this beacon on the hill that is a shining light unto all nations, twenty-four countries are less corrupt than the USA, and that seems generous, as I assume we know almost nothing about the CIA for the plain reason that the CIA is smart enough to reveal almost nothing about itself."

"All signs pointed to deliberate sabotage. But immediately, Antifa started holding up the controversy as evidence of their crackpot theory that class reductionist Leftists were secret Nazis."

Ondrej Mann's interview with Czech sociologist Petr Hampl has been sprung from the paywall.

"As for Cayla, her abusive husband slaps her on stage. The audience gasps. She slaps him. The audience cheers. She falls for Rumson, so we have a twist on adultery, but the mean husband is soon expelled. Did we mention he’s also a Mormon? A gun-toting, hard-drinking (?), racist, sexist Mormon."

"The Odinic path is appealing to a certain kind of European, yet it is a risky ideal, especially for a religion. The Ring cycle demonstrates this. There are still higher powers than Wotan, ones that can’t bend to divine whims or mortal action. Siegfried may shatter Wotan’s spear, but he can’t escape his fate. Even if one became a god, there are still forces you can never transcend."

"Here we had the detritus of an industrial society — the rusted-out hulls of 'iron monsters' — as well as the medieval ghosts of plagues from the past haunting Copperfield’s river. The disease that came by the water to the city of London in the 1830s was an old one, but its epidemic success required the mass society of the modern age and the great commerce of trade and empire that turned the 'fine fresh' Thames into a 'deadly sewer.'”

"That seems to be a general rule of Leftism: it most harms those it claims to be most concerned about. However, Leftist narcissists like Marina Hyde aren’t interested in the consequences of their Leftism. Decent people don’t mention black criminality — except to blame it on Whitey. But decent people do gloat over bestial savagery when it is inflicted on a deserving target. After the Boer nationalist Eugene Terre’Blanche was hacked to death by blacks on his own farm, Marina Hyde and an Iranian comedian called Omid Djalili openly gloated at the news on BBC radio."

"So hiring Americans might not be so much about love of country, but needing workers who can understand 'cultural and political context' to perform ideological censorship. That much, of course, is a departure from the common industry practice of Third World exploited labor so they can pay the absolute lowest wages possible. Someone from Bangalore might not get what 'small hats' means, realize that a picture of George Floyd holding a banana is highly irreverent, or understand naughty memes."

"Mattel has recently released a list of 419 words that it no longer deems suitable for Scrabble players worldwide.

It’s no coincidence that these are 419 of the most enjoyable words in the English language."
