Odds and Ends, 7/2/20

In der news.

Andrew Joyce speaks.  If my opinion is worth anything to Joyce, I have a positive opinion of that podcast and would be interested in hearing more, and I wrote as much on the comments thread there.

One point of criticism in the Joyce podcast – mispronunciation of forte.

Genuine greatness!

One legitimate criticism of Yockey (among several) can be of his insistence of labelling his philosophy “Imperialism” – which is not only vague and uncertain, but has reactionary undertones and does nothing but agitate the hysterical fantasies of the petty nationalists. That hysteria would be from “Imperialism” in the intra-White context.  What about globally? Really, do we really want Imperialism with respect to the non-White world? Even if that was realistic, which it is not, cross-civilizational Imperialism always backfires on the Imperialists.  The conquered always tend to, ultimately, conquer the conquerors.  Look at Britain today.  

And Yockey was perhaps a bit of a Daltonite when he wrote: “Street meetings are themselves victories, but a speech in a hall of old ladies, from which the enemy is excluded, is a political nullity.”

Well, today, we can’t even have a meeting "in a hall”: - which shows you how backwards we’ve gone in the last 70 years.  Thanks, “movement.”

Gee, too bad nobody warned you about Trump back in 2016.  Oh, wait…Sallis...

More genuine greatness!

More Yockey quotes:

…a pen-name is just as “real” as any other. The determining thing about a name is whether one can be proud of it or ashamed of it.

Food for thought for the Type Is who debate about the appropriateness of pseudonyms.

When a man devotes himself to a negation thus, he inevitably turns into a carbon-copy of that which he is supposedly resisting.

Indeed.

Whenever anyone announces and formulates an Idea which cuts across all older classifications and theories, he may expect that petty-raceless dimwits from the day-before-yesterday, survivals from the previous century, will fail to understand, and will greet with great hatred that to which they are not equal.

Hence, the petty nationalist ethnonationalists reacting to pan-Europeanism.

In the Massie book, Peter the Great, we read the following on 17th century Russian attitudes toward women:

…a woman was regarded as a silly, helpless child, intellectually void, morally irresponsible and, given the slightest chance, enthusiastically promiscuous.

Looking back from the perspective of 2020, can we honestly say that they were wrong?

Spencer and Conte are teaming up again for podcasting?

I told you that Carlson was useful.

As TOO says: Cue the Vikings.

So, for (many, most) Whites we have outgroup (pathological) altruism coupled to a lack of ingroup altruism. Related to this perhaps?

Sallis predicted the downfall of the Alt Right as far back as late 2016.early 2017.  And by March 2018, the “insane and indecent” Ted Sallis was already recognizing that the Alt Right was dying.

Whose judgment should you trust in the dark days ahead?
