White Ethnic Responsibility

Leadership needed.

It is not enough for White ethnics to oppose Der Movement. It that is all there is, then, by default, White ethnics will find themselves on the same side as the anti-White Left, essentially confirming all of Humphrey Ireland’s ranting nonsense.  Not only would such an outcome be used to retroactively justify Nordicist attacks against White ethnics, but it would be a self-destructive catastrophe in its own right. White ethnics are White, they have the same interest in White survival as do other Whites and, let us be honest, “Da Left” hates White ethnics even more than does “Der Right.”  And why should White ethnics let themselves be forced out of pro-White activism that they have every right to be involved in? Principled opposition to Der Movement by White ethnics must ultimately come from the Right – from the racial nationalist Far Right, and not from the Left, the Center, or the Mainstream Right. White ethnics need to be involved in pro-White activism, but not as part of Der Movement; the “movement” is the enemy and must be opposed as part of rebuilding the pro-White activist endeavor.

As part of this project, White ethnics need to make common cause with non-Nordicist pan-European NW Europeans – people like Yockey, Mosley, and the person who was my main collaborator on the Legion Europa project – and, together, all like-minded persons of European descent will be able to forge a movement that can win, and win for the benefit of all Europeans.

And such a movement cannot be a White ethnic-focused navel-gazing counterpart to a Nord-focused navel-gazing “movement” – it has to have an appeal to all Whites, it cannot be limited to, or described as, or characterized as, a particularistic and narrow vehicle for specific subracial and ethnic interests. A narrow focus would be making the same mistake of Der Movement, and would not in any case appeal to the broad spectrum of people we want to attract and accept. While such a movement has to be, at its fundamental core, absolutely pan-European, its opposition to divisive Nordicism (or any other such “ism”) must be defensive; that opposition is to protect the pan-European ideal, not to attack the legitimate identities and interests of different European groups (again, such an error would simply be mimicking in a variant form the basic mistake of Der Movement).

White ethnics cannot save themselves alone, and contrary to the fantasies of the Nordicists, NW Europeans cannot save themselves alone either – observe the pitiful failure of Der Movement as a prime case study of that. With respect to the White ethnics, they alone are an insufficient proportion of the population of White Diaspora nations to be effective in achieving racial nationalist goals, they have a common fate with other White groups in those nations as they belong to the same broader race and civilization and face the same threats, there has been extensive intermarriage with other White groups, and so therefore it makes no sense not to make common cause with other White groups (no sense apart from the hostile attitudes on the Right toward White ethnics - attitudes that need to be addressed, attacked, and defeated). In the European homeland, the various peoples of Europe need to make common cause as well; there are no individual nations, or little subsets of nations, that can achieve a long term final victory on their own. For example, from a Southern European standpoint, how could a racial nationalist Italy survive long term if it is sandwiched between the Global South to the South and a multiracial, multicultural, Leftist Northern and Central Europe to the North?  And who would want to allow the rest of Europe, which, together with Italy, makes up the cradle of our race and civilization, to be lost?

So, we need a pan-European movement to emerge and one in which White ethnics play a role as important as that of any other White group.

Practically speaking, the first step would be to expand a small groupuscule into an online community. Let us consider how other "movement" entities got started. American Renaissance started from a monthly (print) journal that recruited writers and built up a group of loyal readers and supporters, and eventually they had real life meetings, conferences, etc. (today, Amren is online, but still has real life conferences). Counter-Currents started as an online journal/blog, and similarly built up writers, readers, supporters, etc. The National Alliance was directly an activist organization, which was derived from Rockwell's group but more directly was derived from the National Youth Alliance; today, I believe that the American Renaissance and Counter-Currents metapolitical model is the more achievable approach to get started in building a movement entity.  Of course, in all of these cases, you had leadership that was open and overt, public figures using their own names (although Greg Johnson of Counter-Currents, with a common name in America, did hide his face from the public for many years), and those entities (particularly Counter-Currents) were able to tap into certain aspects of an already existing "movement" infrastructure (the affirmative action program being part of that).  A genuinely pan-European group, with White ethnics prominently involved, would have more difficulties getting started (as the Legion Europa failure demonstrated), but the attempt should be made.

Do I really believe that it is likely that this is going to be achieved?  Honestly, no.  In this post, I am being prescriptive, not descriptive.  It seems that no one is really interested; at least, not interested to the extent to actually do anything to actualize this vision. We need White ethnic responsibility to exercise some leadership in this regard, but, again, no one really seems to be interested. 

Der Movement has sufficient members and infrastructure to survive (albeit not prosper) with a low participation rate of people actually doing things.  However, in contrast, there are a tiny number of authentic pan-European activists (in the Anglosphere Diaspora we instead have Nordicists and in Europe we instead have petty nationalists) and, since Der Movement has done a “fine” job in alienating White ethnics, there are a tiny number of such activists involved in pro-White activism, or even merely interested in such. There is not a critical mass of potential activists for the project I propose that would allow any real optimism, a critical mass large enough so that a low participation result would still result in enough activists to make a difference. With Der Movement filling up the Far Right niche space, a healthy-sized pool of people strongly interested in an alternative would be necessary to break into that niche, and such do not exist.  

The only possibility of progress would be if a large fraction of the tiny number of current pan-European, particularly White ethnic, activists would exercise the required leadership, be active, and work to build an attractive alternative to Der Movement. We can also hope that such a project, however small; would attract new high quality people.  Or perhaps some new people will come, and some leader emerge, on their own (highly unlikely - why hasn’t it happened already?) or perhaps more likely inspired by The Sallis Groupuscule (a reason for my continuing activity despite my pessimism). Again, we need people willing to actively participate in the metapolitical and political work to build this alternative movement.  Without such, all of this is just a waste of my time and, more importantly, we (by “we” I mean all Whites) are doomed. And, White ethnics, by their inactivity, would have proved the Nordicists right.
