Spencer Quinn interviews Glen Allen, a Baltimore attorney who lost his job with the City after the SPLC pressured them to fire Allen for his political views. Allen is now fighting back in the courts. https://counter-currents.com/2021/08/an-interview-with-glen-allen-free-speech-advocate/
Morris van de Camp reviews Paul Shamplina & Kate Faulkner's book "Landlording," which contains practical advice for property owners dealing with tenants, and he discusses what his own experiences as a landlord taught him about race realism. https://counter-currents.com/2021/08/landlording/
Jim Goad regales us with accounts of how the media's coverage of The Olympics manages to become even more racist in trying so hard NOT to be racist, of how the media so badly wants us to believe that it's not black people who are randomly assaulting Asians, of a new video game in which the player is a psychologist trying to heal Hitler in his youth, and more. https://counter-currents.com/2021/08/the-worst-week-yet-41/
Lawrence Lightfoot's recounting of the 1990s romantic comedy "Blast from the Past" has been sprung from the paywall. "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." https://counter-currents.com/2021/06/blast-from-the-past/
Beau Albrecht's article on Israel's Oded Yinon Plan is now available in Arabic translation. "Much of the Oded Yinon Plan reads like 'For Israel’s future security, we need civil wars in this, that, and these other countries.' Destabilizing nations is, of course, practically a technology among some circles, a craft that might be described as destructive social engineering or malicious applied sociology." https://counter-currents.com/2021/08/oded-yinon-plan-in-arabic/
Jim Goad's "We're No Longer #1," his response to the conservative's eternal refrain that America is the greatest country in the world, has now been sprung from the paywall. https://counter-currents.com/2021/07/no-longer-number-1/
Kathryn S.'s "Something in the Water: Epidemics & Enemies in Nineteenth-Century Europe" has been sprung from the paywall. "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.'” https://counter-currents.com/2021/07/something-in-the-water/

Travis LeBlanc recounts how the case of Shawn McCaffrey, a former Alt Right star who was recently drummed out of the US military for his political views, tells us that Uncle Sam doesn't want to send any White Nationalists to fight brown people in other countries. https://counter-currents.com/2021/08/uncle-sam-doesnt-want-you/

2,159 words If there is one term I really hate, it’s “extremist.” You can call me a racist or a fascist; I don’t care because, well, that’s true. I don’t identify with the terms “Nazi” or “white supremacist,” but I know what people mean when they say that…

Morris van de Camp's "Who Lost Syria? How Israel Was Won through Terrorism," about how terrorism against both the British and the Palestinians was crucial for the establishment of Israel in the 1940s, is now available in Arabic translation. https://counter-currents.com/2021/08/who-lost-syria-2-arabic/
Richard Houck on the hefty toll that the double standards of an elite that simultaneously encourages mass rioting and violence in opposition to whites while holding whites responsible for all evil, including COVID-19, have taken on the US. https://counter-currents.com/2021/08/anarcho-tyranny-2020-beyond-part-ii/
New writer Will Johnson tells us how reading the French philosopher Gilles Deleuze might just be the most life-affirming thing you can ever do for yourself. https://counter-currents.com/2021/08/breakfast-with-deleuze/
Trevor Lynch reviews Michael Powell's 1948 anti-German film "The Life & Death of Colonel Blimp," finding it to be perhaps the worst "classic" film of all time. https://counter-currents.com/2021/08/the-life-death-of-colonel-blimp/
Robert Hampton on why the idea that Political Catholicism could emerge as a force on the American Right is nothing more than a pipe dream. https://counter-currents.com/2021/08/political-catholicism-reimagined-for-the-liberal-elites/
Stephen Paul Foster shows us how the same gang that brought the US and the Soviet Union together during the 1940s went on to establish the double standards represented by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. https://counter-currents.com/2021/08/mrs-roosevelt-comrade-molotov-human-rights/

Steven Clark discusses the sixties classic movie "The President's Analyst," where a psychotherapist who's called in to help the American President finds himself in the middle of a war between agencies and corporations who are looking to dehumanize the planet. https://counter-currents.com/2021/08/the-presidents-analyst/
Jim Goad on why the so-called "Optics War" that raged between wignats and the Dissident Right in recent years was only a distraction from the real enemies that are threatening both. https://counter-currents.com/2021/08/the-optics-war-is-over-both-sides-lost/
Nick Jeelvy compares the endless repetition of the same mistakes by Dissident Rightists to the rituals of cargo cultists, who try to conjure the fruits of politics without understanding where they come from. https://counter-currents.com/2021/08/cargo-cult-politics/
