In his 1957 book Germany’s New Conservatism, the German expat-cum-American scholar Klemens von Klemperer makes the case that, during the days of Weimar, “strong Nietzscheans” dominated the revolutionary Right. Such thinkers as Oswald Spengler, Edgar Julius Jung, and Arthur Moeller van den Bruck formed what was then known as “neo-conservatism,” a term that in American…

American Shitshow: Paramilitary Ascendancy
In the previous article, I discussed why the US military is likely to be irrelevant in any civil conflict, aside from perhaps the kind of pro forma checkpoint and cordoning missions that can use large numbers of not necessarily highly motivated troops. However, the United States has a truly vast number of paramilitaries (120K plus…
Five Friday Reads – 10/25/18
America took another turn for the weird with the bomb scare delivery spree that made the Reichstag fire look completely legit. If we review this October, the Seretary of Defense and President received ricin, leftist agitators assaulted random Republican candidates, GOP office were firebombed, bird dogging was directed at Republican Senators over a judge, and…
The Inconsistent Radicalization of the Conservative Pundit
Like a lot of people in the Outer Right, I used to be a normie conservative who became slowly “radicalized”. And as with many in the Outer Right, I have a particular interest in the radicalization (or lack thereof) of some prominent media conservatives who only go so far and no farther. I do not…
American Shitshow: The Military Doesn’t Matter
In this ongoing series (“American Shitshow”), various authors discuss prospects, aspects, and outcomes of civil conflict in the United States.

The Curious Case of Harry M. Caudill, Esq.
As the dawn faded into a hazy mid- morning of post-War America, millions fled the cities to the suburbs in an early experiment in Dreherite retreat.

Senator Warren released her DNA test results to show she is anywhere from 1/64th to 1/1024th Native American. Why release results? Why not get a surrogate to take the test? How…
Addiction to a Pretty Face
He not only considered it trivial to commit the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, but he also married Jezebel daughter of Ethbaal king of the Sidonians, and began to serve Baal and worship him — 1 Kings 16:31 The American Left have long annointed the Republicans as the “stupid party.” Traditionally, this conclusion can…
Art Address 2018: The State of Aesthetics On The Right.
Its a strange time and place that we live in, a unique cultural moment in the west that can either break us, swallowing us all whole within its clutches, or we can ride it, like so many psyche waves in a tumid sea of unconscious activity; But enough with these poetic niceties, let me get…
A Review of ‘The Gun Fag Manifesto’
Everyone sensible recognizes the attributes of the fedpost. “I’m tired of men who are all talk and no action, what are we doing to WIN the FIGHT?” says the bosomy avatar of some secret police goon. “Hey who has bought one of these Chinese Glock sears, do they work?” says the zero-post forum member with…
