Odds and Ends, 7/3/21

In der news. Emphasis added.

Der Movement weeps.

My response to this:

they drink their mead

their lies replace

our creed;

no wops allowed

to celebrate

Roman deed.

Let’s consider the latest insanity of Der Movement, some excerpts:

Another scheduled keynote speaker for the Muncie event was a guy billed as Matt H. Bach.

Yes, that is exactly who you think it is. That is none other than Matt Heimbach, former leader of the trailer park neo-Nazi outfit Traditionalist Workers Party and current anti-racism activist.

If you don’t know who Matt Heimbach is, you must be new here. Welcome to the Dissident Right. 

Yes, welcome to the Dissident Right, of which Counter-Currents is a key part.

For those who don’t know, I’ll give the Cliff’s Notes. For worse or for even worse, he is a significant figure in the history of our movement. 

What does that tell you about your “movement?”  Maybe that I am correct about it?

Matt Heimbach first rose to prominence in 2012-2013 when he tried to create a “White Student Union” at his college. It generated a lot of controversy and became a national news story. The college refused to officially recognize the group, but it continued in an unofficial capacity. They once had Jared Taylor speak at one of their events.

But Counter-Currents won’t dare criticize Taylor over that Heimbach connection. “Political” considerations are always paramount.

After college, Heimbach and his right-hand man Matt Parrot (sic) started the Traditionalist Workers Party (TWP). 

Who else had an association with Parrott?  Any guesses?

While the Alt-Right was pioneering new and innovative methods on online white activism..

Yes, indeed: Pepe, Kek, chugging gallons of milk, Spencer, "Arthur Kemp was right," Unite the Right, drunken podcasts, “youth culture” – certainly, pioneering new and innovative methods of being retarded jackasses.

…Heimbach chose instead to stick to the failed model of 1990s skinheads complete with uniforms, fascistic symbolism, and ostentatious displays of Nazi fetishism, with predictable results. 

It’s better of course to talk about Savitri Devi. That’s not out-dated Nutzism, no siree!  Or should I say - no sari?  WN 2.0!  An unending success story!  The Alt Right, for example!

Heimbach thought online activism was for suckers and that serious white activists need to be out doing things in the real world. 

He had a point there.

Being allied to the most prominent white identitarian in the country gave Heimbach and TWP a new level of prestige.

Imagine needing to be associated with Spencer to get “a new level of prestige.”  

The Optics War really began when TRS attempted to add the TWP’s podcast to their roster. This is when Andrew Anglin and Weev of the Daily Stormer, the biggest white nationalist website in the world, stepped in. After Wignat Woodstock, the Stormer did not want the Alt-Right to be associated with costumed neo-Nazism anymore and gave TRS an ultimatum: the Daily Stormer would cease promoting TRS podcasts unless they dropped TWP. TRS relented. This led to a huge online debate over optics, the value of real-world events, and how to tailor the message for a mass audience. In the ensuing Optics War, people were doxed, reputations were ruined, and alliances shifted.

After all, Anglin is the King of Optics, and the Daily Stormer has no connection to anything Nazi.

The Optics War ended when Matt Heimbach was caught having an affair with Matt Parrot’s wife (who was also Heimbach’s mother-in-law, as Heimbach was married to Parrot’s step-daughter from a previous marriage). He also assaulted Parrot in front of his children. This was the end of Matt Heimbach’s career in white nationalism.

It doesn’t help that this smug, know-it-all writer cannot correctly spell the names of the people he gossips about. More importantly, note the word “career” being used here. A “commercialized amusement business,” indeed!

For more information, watch Ryan Faulk’s video “Matt Heimbach and the Perils of Wignatism.”

Who is Faulk that we should all listen to his views?

So let’s get back to this March for Medicare for All. Once Matt Heimbach’s picture appeared on March for Medicare for All’s official Instagram page, it took all of two seconds for people to recognize that Matt H. Bach was the notorious neo-Nazi Matt Heimbach.

Too bad Johnson wasn’t as alert with respect to “David Lewis” vs. “Dave Lewis."

I have cautioned people from writing off the socialist Left as controlled opposition. As race-cucked as the socialist Left may be, they are pretty consistently anti-Zionist, and this has got a lot of Jewish organizations worried that the socialist Left is on the verge of going full-blown antisemitic. During the recent Israel-Palestine fiasco, I saw a ton of Jews on Twitter losing their marbles about it.

That’s the David Duke Fallacy – if someone is critical of anything Jewish, then they are an ally or a potential ally.

In the short term, Leftist anti-Zionism is more dangerous to Jews than Rightist antisemitism because the socialist Left has more social respectability and a shred of institutional support. Anti-Zionism is also harder to justify censoring than outright antisemitism, so orchestrating a smear campaign against the Left would be the next best option.

Who cares?

I could believe that Matt Heimbach would want to be a speaker at an event like this. He always had communist tendencies even when he was a white nationalist and he was also an attention whore.

What Quota Queen is not an attention whore?

What I couldn’t believe is that the organizers of this rally would have booked him without knowing who he was. How would that work? “Hey, you may not know me, but do you think I can speak at your rally?” “Sure thing, stranger.”

Worked for Hermansson.

An exception might be if someone put in a lot of time or money into the event. In such a case, an organizer might throw them a bone with a few minutes of stage time as a way of saying thanks. Maybe Heimbach did that. If that were the case, that might let the organizers off the hook slightly in the sense that they were not deliberately malicious. Heimbach is enough of a narcissist that he might not have realized or cared about the damage his presence might cause. Or he could be a Fed. He has a criminal record and is facing lawsuits. He could have cut a deal along the way.

Right. Everyone the Quota Queens don’t like is:

1. A “Fed” or a “CIA asset.”

2. A “Jew.”

3. “Insane” or a “paranoid piece of crap.”

Too bad they weren’t that paranoid with Hermansson. Or with Lewis.

So who was responsible for this prank? I think we can safely rule out the infiltrator being a Right-winger. If the Right were going to do something like this, they would have used the prank to promote someone who was still within our ranks who could then have capitalized on the publicity. They would not have used Matt Heimbach, who was kicked out of our movement years ago. If Nick Fuentes, Sam Hyde, or Andrew Anglin had appeared on the flyer, I might have said “OK, that was one of our guys.” 

Note the words “our guys” Does EGI Notes use “our guys” to describe any of those individuals?

But there is no reason why someone on our side would have wanted to promote a current anti-racist activist. 

Unless the anti-racist activist is Swedish.

There is another lesson here that perhaps we already knew but it bears repeating. Our enemies have reached their quota of traitors. 

Meet the ethnonationalists. And HBDers.  And Nordicists.

Former Breitbart writer Katie McHugh tried to pull a Christian Picciolini. She doxed dozens of people and handed over hundreds of e-mails from people, some of them as prominent as Stephen Miller. Several anti-white hit pieces have been written based on information McHugh provided, and in return, she got next to nothing. The liberal establishment just said “Thanks for the doxes, now fuck off.” She got a couple of fluff pieces written on her, but she did not get the Picciolini-style career of a reformed racist that she was hoping for.

Any comments from Gregory Hood on that?

If you have ever done pro-white activism, you can always quit, but don’t even think about trying to switch sides. It won’t work.

What about "admixed" coastal wop Picciolini (*)?

*As opposed to the "purebred" mountain wop Conte.

This is by no means a defense of Heimbach or anyone else in Der Movement. But folks who take seriously the deranged gibbering of a sari-clad lesbian hag who engaged in a sham marriage with a (male) South Asian because of a pathetic delusion that upper-caste Hindus are "Aryans" have no right to mock anyone else as "Wignats."

Some of the comments for that post are hilarious as well.  Some excerpts:

That’s why one has to admire men like Revilo Oliver, William Pierce, Sam Francis, Joe Sobran, Murray Rothbard (neither a white nat nor even a white man, but went hard against The System, and paid for it), Jared Taylor, Peter Brimelow, Kevin MacDonald (though he shrewdly stayed his pen until he at least had tenure)…

Blasphemy against the “rock star.” 

…and Greg Johnson.

Laughter.

I would add David Duke, too. 

Before or after the gambling?

What is really needed is less “aesthetic” than character quality. I’ve always thought Taylor was the model. He tells hard truths…

Hard truths? Are you mad?  Someone who avoids the “JQ” and whose website wouldn’t even cover population genetics papers by Jews demonstrating the modern Middle Eastern ancestry of the HuWhite Ashkenazi?

…but is never inflammatory…

Except to Italians, Hungarians, and Romanians, but who cares about them, amirite?

…(as was Oliver, who was more learned and a better writer, but probably much less effective as an influencer). He was and is truthful but disciplined, and very presentable in his person. But above all, he had the character not to pursue the more comfortable life he might have had in order to awaken his people.

Oakton, VA is really "slumming it,” I know. Oh, the sacrifice!

Note the IQ differences between the above men (with the possible exception of Duke) and lesser lights like Spencer and the seemingly ridiculous Heimbach.

And yet, they are all equally failures.

…prior to the 80s, racial dispossession was mostly only apparent to discerning types like Wilmot Robertson…

Have to have some Humphrey Hagiography mixed in.

Great story.  For the benefit of us newbs not familiar with all the Dramatis Personae, it would help to define or list what the various acronyms are. For example, I could never find out who/what “TRS” is.

Gee…five seconds of “googling” is too difficult for the new Counter-Currents crowd. Here’s some help. Try "TRS Nazi." 

Also, it seems that the new C-C paywall system is working.  I’m noticing more comments here and not the amount of inappropriate or trolling comments that non or poorly-moderated websites get.

Huh? The number of comments are no more than before, and this idiot’s pathetic comment refutes the issue of alleged quality.

Not to brag, but I also do weight-lifting to stay in shape.

Now try boosting your IQ into the triple digit range.

Usual caveats apply.  I really wish there was an edit comment function as I’m sure there’s a spelling mistake somewhere.

Good to know we’re maintaining that high, high, high commenting quality!

Gee…can you think of a “more movement” “movement” post than this? Ejaculations commence.
