SACRED WOUNDS

by Incompetent Reactionary

Let us cast a casual glance at an obscure footnote to Russian history:

"Skoptsy is a plural of 'skopets,' an archaic word meaning 'castrated one' in the Russian language. As their title indicates, the main feature of the sect was castration. They believed that after the expulsion from the Garden of Eden, Adam and Eve had the halves of the forbidden fruit grafted onto their bodies forming testicles and breasts. Thus, the removal of these sexual organs restored the Skoptsy to the pristine state before the Original Sin. In this the Skoptsy maintained that they were fulfilling Christ’s counsel of perfection in Matthew 19:12 and 18:8-9.

There were two kinds of castration: the 'lesser' and 'greater seal' (i.e. partial and complete castration). For men, 'lesser' castration was the removal of the testicles only, while 'greater' castration was the removal of the penis as well."

POEMS FOR FUSILIER RIGBY

Lee Rigby

(To commemorate the first anniversary of Fusilier Lee Rigby of the 2nd Battalion Royal Fusiliers' Name being Added to the Armed Forces Memorial at the National Memorial Arboretum, Sept. 1 2014.)

A MODEST PROPOSAL FOR GUN-SHUNNERS

(The following article was originally composed in the aftermath of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Connecticut in December 2012, and was published on the "old" Alt-Right site on January 2, 2013. With a fevered push for "gun control" once again afoot among the usual suspects following last week's spectacularly horrific on-air massacre of a Roanoke reporter and cameraman, the 'piece'—pun intended—has duly been summoned out of retirement.)

by Andy Nowicki

In his article “Police State Progressives,” Jack Donovan echoes so many of my own thoughts on the post-Newtown American Zeitgeist that I am tempted to quip that he stole my gunfire on the subject. Liberals, he finds, don’t really care for the notion of power being granted to “the people”—they have learned to stop worrying and love the state. Of course, were the face of Big Brother still revealed in the smirking frat-boy features of George W. Bush instead of the shining, godlike countenance of mulatto rainbow wonderboy Barack Obama, chances are the libs would have a far harder time carrying on their love affair. (Even though the policies of the two men aren’t markedly different, image is indeed everything when it comes to today’s facile state-smitten progressives.)

THE PURGE AND THE POETS

From left to right: PA Cousteau, Claude Jeantet (standing) and Lucien Rebatet.

by Rémi Tremblay

When one thinks of the French language, it is impossible not to think of the richness of its literature. Known for its theater and poetry, its classicism and romanticism, French has produced some of the world’s best authors. But like many things in France, its culture is declining. Where did this decline start? Did it start with the Cultural Marxist revolution of the 60’s? French author Léon Arnoux who recently published L’épuration et les Poètes (The Purge and the Poets) claims the origins of the decline coincide with the purges at the end of the Second World War.

ANOTHER 'YOUTH' ON WHITE CRIME

In Shreveport, Louisiana, a white girl in a bikini gets catcalled, then assaulted, by five, er... youths while sitting in her boyfriend's car at a gas station. The ensuing attack causes permanent disfigurement to the girl.

The story fails to gain national attention, though it does get mentioned at Huffington Post, where commenters fume about the evils of patriarchy and the depredations of "rape culture." 

TRUMP CAN WIN

Hail to the Donald!

by Matt Parrott

From time to time, I set aside some time from my full-time career of advocating for identity and tradition to do some casual moonlighting as an analyst. I’m always open to feedback about my activism strategy, but one woefully repetitive angle relies on an appeal to authority that I’m supposedly some clueless maverick who would be doing things differently if I only understood marketing strategy, analytics, and samesuch nerd stuff. These types usually explain that our angle can “never work” because too many Americans are loyal to the Constitution, triggered by our symbolism, and in need of an especially polished angle.

Everything we’re doing is informed by analytics. I have generated hundreds of charts and reports over the years and what I feel that I’ve confirmed quantitatively is that the youth demographic we’re targeting simply isn’t going for soft angles, compromising language, and entryist “implicit whiteness” or “compassionate conservative” pablum. Millennials are starved for authenticity, masculinity, and full-throated radicalism…at least the ones which are plausibly accessible at this juncture.

VIDEO: THE ROTHERHAM SERIES

At long last, Neoreactionary vlogger, Millennial Woes, is ready to launch his epic series of videos on the Rotherham Rape Scandal, in which, over a period of 16 years, 1,400 underage girls were groomed and raped by Pakistani gangs in a single English town. In the first of the series, MW introduces the series and himself, and talks about what to expect (around 100 videos!). He also dismisses the totally inadequate and indeed absurd explanations provided by a range of political groups (conservatives, liberals, libertarians, feminists, socialists, etc.), and points out the failings of the media.

Watch subsequent episodes here.

THE CUCKSERVATIVE MYTH

by Siryako Akda

In his famous novel, East of Eden, John Steinbeck wrote about the life and times of Adam Trask, a Prince Mishkin-like character, who – among other misfortunes – fell in love with a sociopathic prostitute/ blackmailer/ murderer by the name of Cathy Ames, whom he had rescued after she received a thorough beating from her fat and very angry pimp.

As he tended to her wounds, Trask became so enchanted by Cathy’s beauty (and vulnerability) that he constructed a fictional image of her inside his head, essentially turning the whore into a goddess. Adam’s brother, Charles, saw through Cathy’s facade stating to his brother that “She’s no damn good, I tell you. She’s a whore.”

NAMELESS PODCAST: BRYCE WILLIAMS AND THE ROANOKE MASSACRE

Left: Bryce Williams. Right: Williams holds a gun on Alison Parker, just seconds before fatally shooting her.

In this unusually topical podcast, Andy Nowicki discusses the case of Bryce Williams, a gay, black "disgruntled" news anchor who callously gunned down two straight, white reporters on live television Wednesday morning in Roanoke, Virginia, before fatally shooting himself later that day. Andy examines the racial as well as the broadly human aspects of this sensationally horrific incident.

HOW GOOGLE DESTROYED THE INTERNET

by Brett Stevens

The internet was created to resolve a simple problem: in communications networks, any central node through which all messages passed was vulnerable to attack or takeover. To counter this, engineers designed a network where any node would pass messages to other nodes, routing around any damage.

Then came commerce and the democratization of the internet.

Under this model, frightened sheep flock to certain central sites that provide the services they need, and avoid everything else, lest it be politically incorrect or upsetting.

SLAVES TO OUR PROGRAMMING

The following is an except taken from an as-yet-unfinished longer work by Andy Nowicki, tentatively titled "Conspiracy, Compliance, Control, and Defiance"

by Andy Nowicki

Man’s consciousness is invariably attended by what could be called his “programming.” That is to say, man is a needy creature, prompted by nature to desire, and strive for, certain outcomes and eventualities. This much, at least, is clearly and indisputably true. However we may argue about the origin of man’s needs—i.e., whether they were conferred upon him by chance or by fate, whether they are attributable to the loving intentions of a benevolent Creator, or perhaps are merely rooted in the cruel, unconscious whims of a variety of blind evolutionary mechanisms—we must finally recognize that, howsoever and whysoever they came about, our needs to a large degree demarcate our identity.

EVERYTHING IS NOW FINE (AGAIN)

by Colin Liddell

There is some question about how many people a man with a Kalashnikov automatic rifle can kill in a crowded train compartment. We almost had a chance to find out the exact answer recently, when a 26-year-old Moroccan man attempted to bring a little taste of Middle Eastern anarchy and butchery to a high-speed French train.

By some fluke (cue conspiracy theories), there were a couple of off-duty US servicemen at hand, namely Spencer Stone and Alek Skarlatos:

"Spencer got to the guy first and grabbed the guy by the neck," Mr Skarlatos told Sky News. "I grabbed the handgun, got that away from the guy and threw it. Then I grabbed the AK-47, which was at his feet, and started muzzle-bumping him in the head with it. "Everybody just started beating the guy while Spencer held the chokehold until he went unconscious."

CLASSICAL NIHILISM

by Daniel Spaulding

It’s a common refrain among self-described conservatives and libertarians in America that both the modern bureaucratic managerial state and mass culture have veered wildly out of control, headed in an ever increasing totalitarian direction, and must some how be reined in. Their prescription is almost always a return to the Constitution, along with the supposed values of the Founding Fathers, and some form of classical liberalism; as one constitutionalist slogan declares, the answer to 1984 is 1776. What is often absent from sloganeering is any meaningful analysis of how society developed from the original republic to the current oligarchic, Leviathan surveillance state.

BREASTS & HIGH HEELS?

Jack Buckby of LibertyGB dissects the Left's contradictory position on gender: while feminists claim women are not defined by breasts and high heels, the transgender movement sees these superficial attributes as essential to "gender identity." 

LAIBACH'S "SPECTRE"

With Slovenian electro-industrial band Laibach playing the "first Western concert" in North Korea, now is an obvious time to re-run Colin Liddell's review of their last album, published last year at Counter-Currents. 

by Colin Liddell

There have always been doubts about just who Laibach are and what they are up to. First who are they? The band is a collective so it is never too clear where “who” ends, although it seems to begin with Milan Fras, the doom-laden vocalist who chants and growls rather than sings most of their lyrics.

Next, what are they up to? This question often crops up as the Slovenian collective often plays with Communistic and Fascistic imagery. This might seem a little edgytarian to those of us from the more Beatlesque or Miley Cyrusy parts of the cosmos, but let’s not forget that Slovenia, the band’s homeland, was, is, and has been perched much closer to the great Fascist/Communist fault line that ran through Europe for most of the 20th century. Any musician from those parts who doesn’t reflect that in their music and style is probably making a conscious effort not to.
