An obnoxious guest. Some specimen who uses the surname “Deasy” writes on a certain Alt Right blog about visiting Bulgaria. Among the smug air of superiority he affects, one finds the following paragraph: The faces of most of the people took getting used to. This was an important lesson in ethnonationalism: Southeastern Europe would not mix well with Sweden, England or France. It isn’t clear to me that expelling the Gypsies and other nonwhite populations from Bulgaria would drastically reduce poverty the way it would in the US or Western Europe. Bulgarians are a different kind of people, with a different kind of multicultural problem. Their birth rate is low, not unlike Germany or Korea. The Gypsy population meanwhile is booming. Let’s consider this. The faces of most of the people took getting used to. Gee, that must have been terrible for you.  Tell you what, next time, decline to visit nations outside of your comfort zone and spare yourself this obvious trauma. This was an import...

Exposing the "spin" of the Alt Fail account. Reading what the Alt Fail writes about the Hermansson infiltration, the following minimizing spin emerges: “Somehow – who knows how! – the fellow evaded Steadman’s extreme vetting.  Well, he attended a few meetings here and there, and he talked with a couple of people, but, you know, he was so inconsequential that no one remembers him, and, like, you know, no harm no foul.  Move on, move on, there’s nothing to see here.”  However, Hermansson tells a quite different story; his story, backed up as it is with voluminous (and very believable) details, and videos, seems to be closer to the truth than is the official (and sanitized) “movement” version.  Let’s read excerpts (emphasis added) from Hermansson’s account (I’m not linking to the execrable site from whence this came, you can find it yourself if you are so inclined): At any normal dinner the prospect of forcibly removing all non-whites would be greeted with shock, but r...

Navel-gazing ideological contortions. One wonders how Andrew Joyce squares his recent series on homosexuality (*) with this expression of tolerance. It would seem that AltRight.com’s current crusade against homosexuality is to a large extent informed by their feud with Counter-Currents .  But let’s give the other side equal attention.  Greg Johnson’s crusade for ethnonationalism, and crusade against pan-Europeanism, which came as an unpleasant surprise to me (who considered him to have been a pan-Europeanist), mysteriously coincided with the deterioration in his relations with Richard Spencer.  Memes in the service of personal animus, it seems. Feuds between “movement” leaders is a “grand tradition” – one can remember Pierce-Carto and Pierce-Covington, but in those cases, the disagreements were personal/tactical.  The situation in which “movement leaders” actually take ideological stands on important issues merely to spite each other is totally unprecedented....

Several definitions and an analysis. Defining national socialism (small “n” small “s”): A collectivist authoritarian system centered on a race-based palingenetic ultranationalism. In other words: racial fascism. A more modern definition: An authoritarian political system that utilizes collectivist organization to promote the ethnic genetic interests of the population, in the context of  palingenetic ultranationalism. Note that, contrary to those who misread Salter's work, a pursuit of genetic interests is wholly compatible with eugenics (which is traditionally important in national socialism), since a population's fitness can be enhanced by replacing maladaptive, or even merely less adaptive, alleles with those more optimal. They key in preserving genetic interests in a manner compatible with eugenics is to avoid unnecessarily large and rapid genetic changes; when directed (eugenic) change occurs it should be "just enough" to get achieve the desired goal (and no furth...

Problems and a solution. There are those who perhaps do not understand why a blog called EGI Notes comments on the state of the “movement.”  I would have thought it obvious, but there are of course cognitively deficient individuals in racial activism, as there are in the general society.  More to the point, likely many of these people merely pretend not to understand in order to oppose such criticism, and in some cases the opposition to my criticism has its basis in rent-seeking behavior.  After all, if one lives off of supporter donations, one wouldn’t want those supporters to get any idea that the money is being wasted, would they? Is that one reason Pierce had an online unit dedicated to discrediting Covington?  And is that why some today become so hysterical when I and others point out objective facts about “movement” ineptitude? For those who, for reasons of deficiency or mendacity, do not see the point of linking genetic interests with criticism of the “moveme...

Behold the "movement." Greg Johnson writes at Counter-Currents : Ted, This will be your last comment here. You’ve got your own blog for your embittered rants. You no longer have anything constructive to contribute. Greg Johnson Greg, believe it or not, I always thought you were a good guy and a useful intellectual contributor (despite our disagreements).  Apparently though, you are a bit too thin-skinned, a trait that won’t serve you going forward.  An inability to accept criticism, however harsh, from your own side, is the path to personal stagnation. To answer your latest criticism (which I accept with no personal rancor): I may well be a “crazy, bitter, low information moralizer,” but I’m also not the one responsible for the potential doxing of dozens of activists, I’m not the one who let an infiltrator waltz through “extreme vetting” because of ethnic fetishism and affirmative action, I’m not the one who took The Great Persiante Shah Jorjani seriously, I’m not the one wh...

Another in an endless series of failures and humiliations. I am sure that by now readers know about the latest unmitigated “movement” disaster, the all-too-predicable infiltration and “exposure” of the Alt Right by a heroic two-fisted Swede ( "Oh, look at what a tough guy I am, I really wanted to punch those Nutzis in the face, but I didn’t want to damage my manicure on their coke-bottom spectacles” ). Read this. Greg Johnson’s experience: In May of this year, I went to London to speak at the London Forum and the first annual Jonathan Bowden dinner. Stead Steadman introduced me to a young Swedish man going by the name Erik Hellberg. I was told that Erik was, like so many others, a newcomer to the movement who was going to write a master’s thesis on doxing, deplatforming, and harassment directed at White Nationalists. The day after the London Forum, Stead and I met with Erik in a quiet hotel bar for a brief interview. I talked about my own experiences of harassment in San Francisco...

Good video. Watch this. I agree, petty nationalist ethnonationalism is a zero sum game, and ethnonationalists really do not understand how their vaunted “sovereignty” is guaranteed by other, larger powers.  In a future ethnonationalist Europe, who will guarantee the sovereignty of, say, Estonia?  Yes, I guess Estonia could develop their own little nuclear arsenal (*), but, really, the existence of an ethnonationalist Estonia would be guaranteed by whatever security arrangements exist among European states, which means they would give up some sovereignty for a collective defense arrangement. Also, Spencer’s overall take on foreign affairs is simply good common sense.  It’s a shame Spencer is wasting himself with the Pepian Alt Right jackasses. *Actually a good idea.  I’m a pro-proliferationist.  More nuclear weapons – at least in the hands of sane states – can help keep the peace.  And each nation that has such weapons should be upgrading, not downsizing. ...

Dumb and useless Right. Very bad news. That folks are willing throw away money on an execrable piece of filth like Derbyshire tells you all you need to know about why Whites are in steep decline.  If you are going to donate, give to Counter-Currents, for example. It’s clear I disagree with them strongly on some issues, but at least it is a pro-White, intellectually sound site.  Derbyshire is the opposite of that. Yeah, Trump “resisted” – the far-left, White-hating, cuck buffoon signed it, didn’t he? Yegads, the delusional Trump worship on the Right knows no bounds.  Trump can make a speech announcing that there are too many Whites in America and that he’s sending out death squads to cull the White herd, and the fanboys will mumble about “4-D chess” and how Trump is nobly “resisting” pressure, since after all, he’s only going to kill most White Americans, not all of them.  The lickspittle Trumpism from the Right does nothing but continue to discredit our cause....

Something is missing. This is a good podcast as far as it goes, particularly with respect to the DACA fiasco. But something is missing.  I did not hear the comment: “We here were naïve about Trump, we exhibited poor judgment, we were wrong and others who long ago identified the truth about Trump were right.” But, no, they cannot do that.  But let me ask one question to the readers here. Some of the readers of EGI Notes are, I assume, also readers of Amren (and other standard “movement” sites).  So, the question to you, dear readers, is this: Which site, months before the election, correctly identified Trump as an unworthy buffoon and beta race cuck; and which enthusiastically pro-Trump site told you that Trump was “the last hope for White America?” You know the answer to that, don’t you?  You also know that you – and by “you” I mean the “movement” rank-and-file – will do nothing about it, and will continue to support a leadership that has let you down time and ...

Against ethnonationalism. Greg Johnson makes what are probably the best possible arguments in favor of ethnonationalism vs. a more integrated pan-Europeanism.  I will now respond to these arguments.  It should go without saying that although I will be sharply critical, this is business, not personal; this is about ideology, not personality. Also note that some of the difference is semantic and there is overlap between our positions; for example, I absolutely demand that distinct European peoples and cultures be preserved.  I oppose any general panmixia and I oppose the idea that all sovereignty, particularly local, should be taken over by a “super-state.”  On the other hand, apparently, real differences exist, so let’s evaluate these differences. Why should sovereignty reside in ethnostates rather than in more inclusive orders, such as the European Union or the “Imperium” envisioned by Francis Parker Yockey?  It is certainly curious that activists who disagree ...
