Nikitin-Johnson Talk

And other news.  In all cases, emphasis added.

The talk.

Does Nikitin know about the anti-Russian essays that have been featured at Counter-Currents?  Mr. Nikitin, and Russian readers of EGI Notes, please consider the following from Counter-Currents:

See this.

But even the whitest of Russians, to the extent that he thinks of himself as a Russian, is committed to a trans-racial identity, an identity whose racial “substratum” includes not just European, but also Mongoloid and Near Eastern (e.g., Caucasian) elements, as well as mixtures of all three…A Russian is not, therefore, just another kind of European. Thus it is with good reason that Russians have always felt that their identity, interests, and destiny are distinct from those of Europe. This “Europeanization,” however, occurred only on the surface, and in its essence Russia remained a distinctly non-European society, in which a European minority elite ruled over a Slavic, Asiatic, Near Eastern, and mixed-race population. However, this process of “Europeanization” was drastically reversed, both culturally and more importantly racially, with the Bolshevik Revolution.

Moreover, blaming the backwardness of Russia on Communism would be like blaming slavery for the backwardness of Africa…If the identity, interests, and destiny of Russia are not European…the stronger traditionalism of Russians, their patriotism and pride in their heritage, do not advance White Nationalist interests any more than the racial pride and patriotism of Indians, Chinese, Middle Easterners, Latin Americans, or Africans. Indeed, it might make them more formidable enemies of our interests.

Racially and culturally, the forerunner of Russia was the Grand Duchy of Moscow (1263–1547)…by the end of the 15th century, the Grand Duchy of Moscow was populated mostly by Christianized Tatar-Mongols who in the course of the previous two centuries had gradually adopted Orthodox Christianity and taken Slavic names. The indigenous Slavic population had become a minority in a relatively short period of time due to the large influx of these Christianized Asiatic nomads, and due to mixed marriages between Christianized Mongols and indigenous Slavs.

Also see this.

White Nationalists must finally come to grips with the fact that the national interests of Russians are not only not the same as, but, in many cases, are actually in conflict with those of Europeans. Therefore, they should not expect Russians to feel empathy with their struggle. In fact, the majority of Russians do not even think they share common enemies with Europeans. Surprising as it may seem to many White Nationalists, Muscovite-Russians see European civilization itself as their main enemy, and it is this confrontation and animosity that underline their identity and their vision of their civilizational destiny.

The author loses a lot of credibility when he compares Russian minorities to blacks, Arabs, etc. Culturally and biologically, that’s a crazy thing to say.

He’s not comparing them culturally and biologically. He’s comparing them in terms of their propensity to criminal behavior and rioting, for example:

And, of course, as we have seen in Ukraine, the presence of a disgruntled Russian minority can be used as a pretext for Russian incursions and annexations.

Are there statistics to back that up? Especially when you compare them to blacks, I’d need to see some data.

He’s comparing them to blacks in terms of their analogous sociological profile. It is not a statistical comparison. I doubt that any group is close to blacks in the amount of petty crime, murder, and chaos they create. Of course Jews are far more destructive on a grand scale, with the wars and revolutions they foment, not to mention the fact that they are principally responsible for the collapse of segregation and white supremacy, and the dismantling of immigration control, opening the floodgates to black crime and chaos.

I can’t help notice that none of that racial and cultural hatred toward Russians was brought up in the Nikitin-Johnson discussion. I suppose that’s all “down the memory hole” (just like “Trump is toast no matter what”), but at EGI Notes nothing goes down the memory hole.

As far as the talk itself, Nikitin made good points and seems like an impressive fellow; my only disagreement was with his attempt to whitewash Nazi hostility to Slavs.  While an element of a “crusade against Bolshevism” was always a component of Operation Barbarossa, it only really came to the fore after Stalingrad, when the Germans needed to change the narrative to one of a pan-European crusade against Bolshevism, to appeal to non-German SS recruits and to win support from other nations; the original hegemonic aspirations against the Slavs were downplayed. And, yes, the Ukrainians originally welcomed the Germans, but they changed their tune after experiencing Koch, no?  And whatever Hitler wrote about Jewish influence in Russia, he was never shy about the need for Germany to conquer living space in the east. Even Irving, who certainly can’t be placed as inherently anti-Hitler, admits what the Nazi war aims really were.  There is a difference between national socialism (the generalized ideology) and National Socialism (the Hitler-German party and regime).  The former is certainly suitable for Slavs; the latter is not.

Durocher’s nervous breakdown continues?

Among other things, the team learned that these so-called Norsemen may not have been entirely Nordic.

“The Vikings had a lot more genes from southern and eastern Europe than we anticipated,” said Willerslev. “They frequently had children with people from other parts of the world. In fact, they also tended to be dark-haired rather than blond, which is otherwise considered an established Viking trait.”

The study also indicated Vikings may have been the jet-setting elite of their day, having little in common—genetically—with the inland peasants in their native lands. 

“The Vikings traveled much farther, had lots of southern European genes and were very likely part of a much more extensive cultural exchange with the rest of the world than any contemporary peasant society,” said Willerslev.

Years of therapy required for Durocher?

Der Movement will complain that these findings will be used by the Left to justify alien immigration into Scandinavia. Well, yes, but two points.  First, such immigration has been going full-steam for decades before this study came out, so it’s not really that important – just another brick in the wall.  Second, Der Movement has no one to blame but itself – for basing its ideology on the weak and crumbling foundation of “racial purity,” and for endlessly engaging in Nordicist fetishism. They made their positions highly vulnerable, and have been warned against it for many years.

The proper attitude is that the genetic makeup of the Vikings in the Dark Ages is completely irrelevant to the interests of Scandinavians today. EGI is forward looking, the past is essentially irrelevant; and, more generally, the interests of any ethny is based on what that ethny is today and what it wants to be in the future.  What happened in its past is beyond its control and  is reflected in that ethny’s characteristics of the present.  Racial purity is irrelevant.  Genetic distinctiveness is relevant. What people did centuries or millennia ago is irrelevant to what needs to be done by people living in those lands today.

More lies.  Imagining a conflict between Jews and their “Anglo-Nordic” junior partners.  And the comments – with old Humphrey imagining that non-Colored “unassimilable minorities” were anti-Reagan, while the wops were an important part of the Reagan coalition. Lies, lies, lies.

Very cognitive, very elite.

"Poor white trash of Asia.” My message to White Australians – and to Whites in general – never forget that the HBDers (and Silkers) want to privilege the interests of Asians, Chinese foremost among them, above that of Whites.  HBD is the traitor within the gates; HBD must be destroyed in order for the White race to live (and the Silkers need to be laughed out of existence).

Also note the picture in the article that is prime onanism material for the Silkers.  Can Danny type his MR articles with only one hand available?
