The Wisdom of Gene Wolfe

And other news.

Greece was, in short, so full of geniuses because it had no solitary geniuses. Each idea and every action had to withstand the probing questions of interested bystanders who could bring writers and philosophers, artists and architects, generals and statesmen to book.  It made these people very careful, and it forced them to think.  I recommend it to you, just as from time to time I recommend it to myself.  – Gene Wolfe (Castle of Days)

That quote, on the origins of the genius of Ancient Greece, stands as one of the best and most elegantly concise defenses of free speech that there is, for only through freedom of expression can we ask those probing questions to bring others “to book.”  Indeed, this applies just as much to the “movement” and explains why we should have utter contempt for those “movement leaders” who refuse to debate others, who “ban” critics, who insulate themselves with an “amen corner”- indeed, who avoid the probing questions that attempt to bring them "to book."

Behold Counter-Currents:

(I wonder if Wolfe had any Italian-American readers who were miffed that he left out an overweight, mafia connected wop among his dramatis personae. After all, The Bonfire of the Vanities just may be the etymological source of the now-famous Italian-American neologism “fuggedaboudit!”)

This is HBD:

I learned that Oriental girls existed when I was six or seven. I remember thinking, "Some white girls are pretty. Some are not. All Oriental girls are pretty." I continue to prefer Oriental women

Haven’t I always told you that HBD is all about Yellow Fever fetishism?

That’s who you are letting take over your “movement” as long as you let the HBD-Nordicist-ethnonationalist alliance control the show.

If you want a vision of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face - forever. George Orwell

If you want a vision of the HBD future, imagine a Chinatrix pegging a White “race realist” - forever. Ted Sallis

Laugh at this.

This structure is evident in J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. For my 11th birthday, my mom got me a Tolkien book set that included The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and The Silmarillion. It took me almost a year to read the entire set, but those books changed my life.

But of course. 

I stand by my analysis that there is some sort of ethnic/subracial preferences for various types of aesthetics, including literature. The obsession of Northern Europeans – particularly Northwest European Celto-Germanic types - for the works of Tolkien is an obvious manifestation of this.  It’s almost as if they are born with an innate fascination with Tolkien. The womb as a hobbit hole?

Gee…if only you were part of the federal government and could do something about it besides tweeting! Imagine if Donald Trump had been elected President in 2016, then we’d really see some crackdowns! 

Seriously though, doesn’t the Trump administration understand how clownishly foolish they appear? Make Jimmy Carter look like Alexander the Great?  No, Hood, Trump and his minions are so weak they make Jimmy Carter look like Zeus, Odin, Hercules, Thor, and Perun all rolled into one.

Here is an example where I actually agree more with a Counter-Currents article than the comments.

See this.

It’s not like we were thinking every second about nuclear war, but it was there.  US-Soviet tensions were higher during Reagan’s first term than under the Nixon, Ford, and Carter regimes; although this lessened with Gorbachev during Reagan’s second term, it was still there.

Interestingly, even though tensions may have been less in the 1970s, we were likely thinking about it even more.

Regardless of the details, this was something on our minds.

Anti-nuclear propaganda like this was effective insofar as people were actually worried about it even before watching that.

I however disagree that the 1990s were "utopian"- depends on where you were living and how stupidly dense you were.  Those of us who entered the "movement" in the 1990s were wide awake enough to realize how bad things really were.

Well, yes, particularly since most American universities, and other bastions of “higher education,” are in continued egregious violation of Title Six and Title Nine, with respect to those institutions' anti-White and anti-male activities.  Many of them are in violation of the non-partisan requirements of 501c3 as well.
