NILS-PETTER LAGERLÖF ON THE GREAT DIVERGENCE

Lipton Matthews talks to Swedish economist Nils-Petter Lagerlöf on why Europe and the West greatly outpaced older and vaster Eastern civilisations in technical and economic development. Among the factors considered are the divided political structure of Europe combined with a relatively free exchange of knowledge, the general tendency of older states to be extractive rather than productive, monogamy, and the greater mobilisation of female and minority talent related to Christianity.

SHORTPOD: BRITAIN'S MIDDLE MANAGEMENT "MANAGED DEMOCRACY"

Also available on BitChute and Odysee

Shortpod 76: No democracy can exist without some influence from its elites, but in recent months the amount of elite influence in British politics has been ramped up considerably with the installation (by a mere 150+ Tory MPs) of Rishi Sunak as Britain's first non-White Prime Minister. Neokrat Editor Colin Liddell comments on this and the current state of British politics, which now offers a "choice" between two middle management types (Sunak and Keir Starmer), both of whom are at the mercy of the debt markets.

PELOSI ATTACK REVEALS "NUDIST-TO-ALT-RIGHT PIPELINE"

Vile Alt-Right thug DePape in 2013 when he was just a liberal degenerate

To those of us who have studied the criminal tendency known as "the Alt-Right," it is no surprise to find a connection with Liberal Leftist degeneracy. The latest example of such terrorism -- the attempted attack on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi that left her husband Paul Pelosi in hospital -- is in fact rather typical of this online hate movement.

The attacker in this case, 42-year-old David DePape, is yet another example of what is known as the "degenerate-liberal-to-Alt-Righter pipeline." Before getting high on antivax memes and mainlining conspiracy theories about George Soros and Klaus Schwab, DePape was a harmless left-leaning nudist loon, whose life trajectory was a rootless search for some sort of work-free "hippie paradise." But it is exactly people like this who provide the readiest recruits and eager foot soldiers for the dark and sinister cult known as the Alt-Right.

Here are some other well-known examples of this vile and evil phenomenon: 

Total degenerate

RICHARD B. SPENCER

Before emerging as a "Fuhrer figure" for his fellow far-right sickoes sometime in the 2010s, Spencer was as liberal as fuck, with lots of gay and Jewish friends, and a lispy voice to match. A keen hatred for the "chad Conservativism" of George W Bush led him to study liberal arts at Duke University, an infamous left-wing academic institution. Here Spencer studied "Cultural Marxism" and enrolled in drama classes, enabling him to ponce around in a toga while sneering at average hard-working Christian Americans. Fast forward a few years and former leftist Spencer was ranting about "Octaroons," heiling Trump, and threatening to set up an "Apollonian ethnostate" from the proceeds of his sick podcasts.  

Mentally damaged by too much fapping 

MILLENNIAL WOES

Better known in the degenerate liberal art school he attended in London as Colin "Lefty" Robertson, Woes started out as a typical Labour voting degenerate, who believed in "a woman's right to choose" and other dumb socialist shibboleths. He then spent the next ten years of his life jerking off in a darkened basement to homosexual fantasies and "Dr Who" videos, which is how the Alt-Right found him. By 2016, however, he was cracking lampshade jokes on Twitter, saluting his "Nazi Fuhrer" Greg Johnson, and dreaming of Nuremburg-style racial purity laws for his hometown of Linlithgow. 

Unsold T-shirts

JESSIE DUNSTAN (aka Seventh Son)

Wise-cracking host of the Neo-Nazi Daily Shoah podcast, Jessie was originally so left-wing that he was "bjorn" with a transgender girlie name. In true degenerate, weed-smoking style, the workshy leftist then gravitated to being in an unsuccessful emo band, where he presumably slept in his own feces and wore unsold soiled T-shirts. Despite these setbacks he was able to "race-mix" by marrying an uncritical Chinese music fan (see above). Fast forward a few years and the former degenerate was spending 23 out of every 24 hours hating on Jews and other innocent minorities, while spoon-feeding co-host Mike Enoch Ranch sauce. 

The "Divine Wind" of degeneracy

RANDOM YOKO

Fanatical, kamikazi-loving, Japanese Alt-Righter, Random Yoko is now known for preaching hate and fascism on the internet from her secure base in Western Japan. But few of her Hirohito-worshipping simp army realise that their "Fukuoka Rose" actually has a long track record of degeneracy and "race-mixing" with the gaijin -- as this video taken in a sleazy "love hotel" testifies. With such a degenerate background why wouldn't she now be calling for the reestablishment of the "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere" and the destruction of the peaceful Communist state of China.

TRUMP TO TWEET AGAIN AS MUSK TAKES OVER TWITTER?

Soon?

It looks like Trump is coming back to Twitter after an almost three-year absence, with the executive responsible for banning him, Viajaya Gadde, being fired by new owner Elon Musk,

The former president was deplatformed by Twitter and a range of other social media outlets in January 2020, following the J6 riot at the Capitol in Washington caused by fears that the election has been rigged. 

As reported by the Independent: 

Vijaya Gadde, the head of legal, policy and trust at the company was one of the senior executives fired by Mr Musk on Thursday night as he completed his $44bn.

It has been reported that Ms Gadde played a central role in Twitter’s decision to ban Mr Trump with CEO Jack Dorsey vacationing on a private island at the time. [...]

Mr Musk has publicly criticised the Twitter decision to ban Mr Trump from the platform.

He called the move a “mistake” earlier this year at a financial conference, while not directly saying whether he’d reverse it should he take over the company.

“I do think that it was not correct to ban Donald Trump,” said Mr Musk in May. “I think that was a mistake because it alienated a large part of the country and did not ultimately result in Donald Trump not having a voice.”

Musk is almost certain to unban Trump. In a recent statement aimed at Twitter's advertisers, he said he was acquiring the platform because he believed it was important to have a space where "a wide range of beliefs can be debated in a healthy manner".

Trump banner Vijaya Gadde (with her husband)

He added that there was currently a "great danger" that social media will "splinter into far right wing and far left wing echo chambers that generate more hate and divide our society".

But there is still a question mark over whether Trump will return. Following his Twitter ban, Trump has repeatedly said that he would not leave his own social media platform Truth Social to return to Twitter. We shall see. 

KANYE WEST AND FEAR OF AN ANTISEMITIC PLANET

Also available on Bitchute, YouTube, and Odysee 

by Colin Liddell

Kanye West wasn't kidding when he said he was going to go "Defcon 3 on the Jews." This has now become a massive story, especially in the underbelly of the hard-to-control sub-media, where Kanye's claims that the Jews run the financial system and the media — and have him in their sites because he's the "true Jew" — are spreading like wildfire. 

Now CNN is reporting that Kanye is even something of a Hitler fan:

Several people who were once close to the artist formerly known as Kanye West told CNN that he has long been fascinated by Adolf Hitler — and once wanted to name an album after the Nazi leader.

A business executive who worked for West, who now goes by Ye, told CNN that the artist created a hostile work environment, in part through his “obsession” with Hitler.

“He would praise Hitler by saying how incredible it was that he was able to accumulate so much power and would talk about all the great things he and the Nazi Party achieved for the German people,” the individual told CNN.

This is a dangerous game to play, as tying Kanye to Hitler may pull Hitler up more than it pulls Kanye down. Also, Kanye is not exactly wrong. It's not difficult to make the case that Jews have a presence in media and financial circles extremely disproportionate to their small numbers, and that this in turn gives them massive potential influence. Also, having such influence, why wouldn’t they use it in a way that favoured their own ethnic interests — even if that involved screwing over "the real Jews" like Kanye? The answer, of course, is that there is no reason at all, and that using that influence for Jewish interests is only to be expected.

The problem of Jewish influence, however, is that it is always influence, and never, or seldom, direct power. As soon as it becomes direct power, it provokes a reaction that kills it. This is what happened to Rosa Luxemburg, Bela Kun, and the short-lived Bavarian Soviet Republic. In my view, Jews tend to be "compliant influencers", basically giving people what they want and then attempting to mollify the inevitable contradictions that arise. This would even explain why they are pretty good at stand-up.

Even in the Soviet Union, the one case where Jewish power appeared to be most powerfully in the ascendant, it had to deny its Jewishness to such an extent that almost all of the prominent Jews ended up turning against each other and being removed from positions of power by someone less ethnically conflicted. The greatest Jew – as well as the most vociferously self-denying one – Leon Trotsky, ended up with his skull wrapped around a Mexican ice pick.

Jewish "power" – if we must call it that – is always soft power, and soft power usually relies on deception, namely tricking people into believing things that serve the agenda of the group exerting the power. Key to this trickery is hiding the identity and interests of the group exerting the power. However, thanks to the internet and the death of the gatekeeper culture, as well as growing cynicism at the way the world works, it is becoming harder to pull this off. It is especially difficult for a group like the Jews who have been memed to death as hidden hands for centuries.

The suppression of the Alt-Right also didn't work out very well, as it "kinda sorta" played into their narratives of the Jews having too much power.

Yes, well-intentioned but heavy-handed attempts to stamp out anti-Semitism, itself becomes the story, and adds to the pool of cynicism and suspicion about the exercise of soft power and the agendas of the various groups operating in the shadows.

Now – and this is the interesting point – the Jews are not the only group operating in the shadows, pouring soft power into the bloodstream of the world like a corrosive poison. There are other groups – non-Jewish business elites, faceless and raceless Eurocrats, the US military-industrial complex, Putin's gang, the Chinese, those in the pay of the Saudis, the Deep States of almost every major country, etc., etc.

But in a world that has so many unseen levels and levers of power, it is the Jew, with his iconic image and viral possibilities, modelled on the medieval meme magic of the Catholic Church and revived by the memes of the modern anti-Semite, that comes to serve as a convenient hate figure for the unfocused fears that the increasing manipulation of our complex world is producing.

Over in Britain, the system has just been rigged, with an Indian coming in as Prime Minister. But, guess what, don't expect the conspiracy-minded to blame the "Eternal Hindus" for this piece of apparent skullduggery. They have a much better fit for their paranoid whodunnit.

While many groups are guilty of pulling the strings of soft power and hard power, or distorting things to serve their nefarious agendas, the bad karma from this collective abuse or lack of transparency of the system flows overwhelmingly and unfairly back towards the ever-iconic figure of the Jew.

Kanye, with the rapper's "truth-to-power" culture of the "oppressed" finally rising up and, in his case, even trashing the Democrat plantation, is a perfect vessel to give voice to these gathering sentiments, which are much more widespread than most care to admit.

What can the Jews do about the viral possibilities that Kanye has unleashed? Even if all Jews acted with moral rectitude, complete transparency, and total integrity – and stopped leveraging the political process or dialled back their occasionally exploitative pull on the culture – even then, it would perhaps be too late.

We now live in a world that, through its complexity, lack of ethnic unity, and multifarious levels of manipulation, is breeding mistrust, paranoia, and, yes, hatred on an industrial scale. But this same world also has removed the barriers for that paranoia and hatred to flow and coagulate where it will, and where will it flow to? Why, to the eternal scapegoat, of course.

"2000 MULES" RETURNS TO BOOKSHELVES AFTER BEING HEAVILY WATERED DOWN

When it was released in May this year, Dinesh D'Souza's book "2,000 Mules" was quickly taken up by the Dissident Right as a generally unread reference to widespread electoral fraud in the 2020 Presidential election. The book was also linked to a film of the same name.

Less well known by those on the "Qtard" Dissident Right was the fact that the book soon ran into legal trouble and was recalled in August. Since then, it has been heavily re-edited and recently rereleased. 

What was changed in the book?

NPR reports: 

Most notably, a passage in the recalled version of the book that accused specific, named nonprofit organizations of involvement in illegal "ballot trafficking" has been rewritten, softening certain claims and outright removing the names of the groups. Separately, sections of the book that purported to link election fraud to antifa and the Black Lives Matter movement have also been deleted. [...]

D'Souza previously said he omitted the names of the nonprofits from the film after getting into a "big fight" with lawyers, who said he could not name them. Since the 2020 election, other prominent election deniers - and the channels that hosted them - have faced lawsuits from election technology companies and election workers, who say election-related lies cost them business, led to death threats, and upended their lives.

Such a climbdown by the publisher is deeply discrediting to the book. It is natural to assume, based on this, that D'Souza was just pushing "conspiracy theories." 

But an alternative explanation is that D'Souza and his publishers were just not prepared, financially or otherwise, to counter a heavy "lawfare" launched by the organisations that they have accused of stealing the election.

There is plenty of evidence that one-sided ballot harvesting occurred in the election:

This, along with the suppression of key stories, such as the Hunter Biden laptop story, could clearly have swayed the election. 

D'Souza is now saying that he will attempt to name names in a follow-up book, no doubt one that will be written with a lot of advice from lawyers. 

I am going to reveal the names of several of these nonprofit stash houses in my book “2000 Mules” that comes out in late August https://t.co/8Ym2FuI6vM

ANOTHER REMINDER THAT THE ALT-RIGHT GOT KALERGI COMPLETELY WRONG

Note: this passage is from a longer academic essay by a Dutch academic. It supports a view promoted on this site that Coudenhove-Kalergi was actually an extremely "based and red-pilled" pro-European. 

Richard Coudenhove-Kalergi and his Jewish wife Ida.

by Robin de Bruin

Coudenhove-Kalergi was a staunch supporter of European global dominance and his call for a European rebirth also shows a strong similarity with the aims of the Alt-Right. In Pan-Europa, he wrote that Europe’s culture was ‘die Kultur der weißen Rasse’ (‘the culture of the white race’), which was a product of Antiquity and Christianity. As a result of migration within Europe, all the people of Europe were ‘Mischvölker’ (‘people of mixed ethnic background’), he argued (Coudenhove-Kalergi [1923] 1982, 34 and 135). In fact, there was one white European race.

However, as the son of a Japanese mother and an Austro-Hungarian father, and being married to a Jewish Austrian wife, Coudenhove-Kalergi was certainly not a traditional white supremacist. Coudenhove-Kalergi thought that ‘Jewish blood’ should form an important ingredient in the to-be-created European ‘mixed race’ (Ziegerhofer-Prettenthaler 2004). In his 1925 book Praktischer Idealismus, he wrote that racial groups, like the Jews, and social classes would gradually disappear in the future. An ‘eurasisch-negroide Zukunftsrasse’ (‘Eurasian-Negroid future race’) would replace the existing races. ‘Die Rassen und Klassen im heutigen Sinne werden verschwinden’, he concluded, but ‘die Persönlichkeiten bleiben’ (‘Race and class in today’s understanding will disappear, but the personalities will remain’) (Coudenhove-Kalergi 1925, 23 and 55). A few years later, he changed his views and argued that the white race should stand united in case of conflict with the black race (Coudenhove-Kalergi 1929, 1; Richard 2010). Internal divisions would weaken the European race ‘in the face of the real racial opposition between Whites and Blacks’ (Coudenhove-Kalergi 1937, 199; transl. Richard 2010).

Today, representatives of the Alt-Right movement mix up these phrases about these various expectations for the future in an attempt to prove that Coudenhove-Kalergi, as a tool in the hands of Jewish puppet masters, had developed a plan for a large-scale blending of people from Europe with people from Africa. Endless references to this alleged ‘Kalergi Plan’ can be found online, from the Greek neo-Nazis of Golden Dawn to the discussion boards of quality newspapers. In 2017 even a former member of the Dutch Lower House for the Conservative Liberal VVD, who now is an adviser to Thierry Baudet’s FvD, said on Twitter that the European political response to the refugee crisis was apparently meant to bring the aims of this ‘Kalergi Plan’ to fruition (Klei 2017). Even those with no sympathy for white supremacists continuously repeat this same meme. The Reddit.com board (or subreddit) for people of mixed ethnic, partly Asian heritage held discussions of Coudenhove-Kalergi in 2017, because 4chan’s ‘/pol/’ board had portrayed the ‘mastermind behind the destruction of the white race’ as a ‘disgruntled WMAF [child of a white male and an Asian female] Eurasian male seeking revenge’.

One of the subreddit contributors noted correctly that Coudenhove-Kalergi was ‘the only non-Jew to be mentioned literally thousands of times on /pol/ [“4chan”] as the dark force behind white genocide’. Another contributor concluded on Reddit that ‘the readers of the [Alt-Right website] Daily Stormer were quite disturbed that a Half Germanic, Half Samurai would do something like this to the white race’. A third person concluded that the ‘jews [sic] will often use good goys [like Coudenhove-Kalergi] to carry out their plan, thus masking their actions and avoiding reciprocity’.

One question that remains puzzling is why the Alt-Right movement is so obsessed with Coudenhove-Kalergi – despite the fact that he could, to some extent, be regarded as a kindred spirit to the sympathisers of the Alt-Right movement (Van Der Horst 2017). Why do they focus on conservative figures like Coudenhove-Kalergi rather than left-wing advocates of European federalism such as the Italian Altiero Spinelli? An answer could be found in a fully internalised, fundamental conviction that the nation state belongs to the natural order of things, and is threatened by the process of European integration. They might feel betrayed by an influential person who was both a conservative and an advocate of European union. His being of ‘mixed race’ might be an aggravating circumstance.

THE MEMES DON'T CHECK OUT: MEDIA NOT "OWNED BY JEWS"

Lucien Wolf examines the misleading meme that "Jews own and run the media." He finds that they don't - although some of them sometimes own and run parts of it.

DISGUSTING STITCH-UP BY SLIMY TORY CABAL ANNOINTS VILE REPTILIAN AS LEADER

In what is perhaps the darkest day for democracy ever, a vile reptilian creature that sleeps on a pile of gold coins in a secret basement has become the UK's Prime Minister.

The disgraceful appointment came after the snake-like creature, known only as "Rishi" to its handlers who regularly feed it "snacks" of dead mice, was appointed Prime Minister in a Satanic ceremony held deep in the catacombs of the darkly sinister 1922 Committee, presided over by the leering and possibly tumescent figure of Sir Graham Brady.

The vile creature, which is estimated to be almost five feet long, was then anointed with a foul unguent made from the recently eviscerated entrails of British democracy, before coiling itself round the now hollowed-out skull of the Conservative Party.

BORIS DROPS OUT OF LEADERSHIP RACE

Looks like Boris Johnson won't be PM this time. He has just released this:

"In the last few days I have been overwhelmed by the number of people who suggested that I should once again contest the Conservative Party leadership, both among the public and among friends and colleagues in Parliament.

I have been attracted because I led our party into a massive election victory less than three years ago – and I believe I am therefore uniquely placed to avert a general election now.

A general election would be a further disastrous distraction just when the government must focus on the economic pressures faced by families across the country.

I believe I am well placed to deliver a Conservative victory in 2024 – and tonight I can confirm that I have cleared the very high hurdle of 102 nominations, including a proposer and a seconder, and I could put my nomination in tomorrow.

There is a very good chance that I would be successful in the election with Conservative Party members – and that I could indeed be back in Downing Street on Friday.

But in the course of the last days I have sadly come to the conclusion that this would simply not be the right thing to do. You can’t govern effectively unless you have a united party in parliament. And though I have reached out to both Rishi and Penny – because I hoped that we could come together in the national interest – we have sadly not been able to work out a way of doing this.

Therefore I am afraid the best thing is that I do not allow my nomination to go forward and commit my support to whoever succeeds.

I believe I have much to offer but I am afraid that this is simply not the right time."

What will happen now? Either there will be an uncontested coronation of Rishi Sunak who will become PM tomorrow, or else there will be a token election for members to vote on between Sunak and the other contender Penny Mordaunt, assuming she can get 100 MPs to support her. However, this seems unlikely, as most Tory MPs will be trying to ingratiate themselves with the new boss.

HOW TO ARGUE AGAINST A "BROWN" PRIME MINISTER WITHOUT BEING CALLED A "RACIST"

An unwitting symbol of genocide who can't help having divided loyalties.

by Colin Liddell

Recently there was a rather interesting phone-in call on LBC, in which the caller tried his hardest to argue against Rishi Sunak becoming Prime Minister. Despite an energetic effort, the caller ultimately failed and was backed into a corner, at which point the Indian-English host was able to call him a "racist." Game over!

You can watch the whole debacle here:

As you can see, the caller was obviously arguing disingenuously. He was attempting to mask his real reasons for opposing Rishi, namely that he was a brown man of Indian background.

In doing this, he employed several "front" arguments -- "He will lose", "He doesn't love England," "He's a globalist," "He destroyed our economy," etc. -- all of which the host patiently deconstructed, homing in all the time on what she thought was the man's real reason, his "knuckle-dragging" racism.

People on the Alt-Right would probably say that the caller lost here because he wasn't prepared to simply "own" being a racist. If only he had shot back with, "Yes, I'm a racist and proud of it," then he would have defeated his opponent, they would argue. 

Of course, he wouldn't.

That would only allow the host to immediately dismiss him as a monster unworthy of further engagement. As it was, the caller managed to stay in the ring for a good few minutes and even land one or two punches before getting knocked out.

But is there a more effective way to argue against the appointment of a "brown man" as PM of the UK without being called a "racist"?

I would say there are two arguments that could be employed effectively in a delicate situation like this. They are:

      (1) the "split identity" argument 

      (2) the "symbol of genocide" argument

Both arguments invoke the "slave morality" of victimhood, which is unavoidable in the feminised modern West with its culture of harm avoidance, inclusion, individualism, and liberty. 

The first argument would go something like this:

Host: "So, you're saying that Rishi isn't British. Aren't you simply a r..."

Caller: "Of course, he's British by birth, passport, education, etc. But he's not just British, is he? He's also Indian by blood, family, ethnicity, and marriage. You wouldn't want him to deny any of that, would you? He has two identities, at least. "

Host: "But isn't that a good thing?"

Caller: "Yes, of course, but that effectively means he doesn't have a single identity. Instead, he has two half identities, unless of course you are arguing that he is twice as good as dull, uninteresting people like me who only have one identity."

As you can see, the Host would now be in the awkward position of arguing that people with dual identities are "superior" to the lowly "monos". Any attempt by the host to assert that Rishi's Englishness is equal to the Englishness of the caller thus becomes an attempt to define him as an inferior lesser person. The host thus becomes the bigot.

The second argument would go like this:

Host: "So, do you just hate Rishi because you're a rac..."

Caller: "I don't hate Rishi. In fact, I think he's a splendid fellow, and he may even be a brilliant Prime Minister. But to me and people like me, having someone of a recent immigrant group becoming Prime Minister in this way can't help looking like mass-immigration-fuelled racial replacement to us. Maybe that's fine, and possibly as individuals we have nothing to fear, but we can't help seeing Rishi's appointment as a symbol of some kind of rapid demographic shift and even genocide. Of course, Rishi and other brown people are not responsible for that, and I don't claim that they are, but for us it looks like yet another milestone on the road to our demographic decline and extinction, yet you are surprised that we should feel uncomfortable about that."

With this argument too, the only real way the host can push back is by pursuing the line that indigenous British people somehow deserve this fate and should embrace it by accepting Rishi as PM or that their feelings are somehow irrelevant. She might even be tempted to mock the fears of the caller or gloat. But by doing that she is forced into the bigot position again and loses the argument.

WHO'S WHO IN THE DISSIDENT RIGHT: "DOCTOR" DAVID DUKE

by Colin Liddell

Read other entries like this in The Dikipedia: Who's Who in the Dissident Right, an ever-expanding biographical guide to the colorful characters of the Right Wing.

____________

Usually, he likes to be introduced with the title "Doctor," as in "Doctor David Duke," which gives a sequence of three alliterative words, or "DDD," a bit like KKK, an organisation he is almost synonymous with. His doctorate, however, was from the "Interregional Academy of Personnel Management," a controversial academic institution in Ukraine. More troubling for Duke, Ukraine's first Jewish Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman is a fellow alumnus of the same academic institution.  

Duke was born in 1950 in Oklahoma and grew up in Louisiana during the period of Civil Rights, a time when the South was going through a lot of Federally enforced changes and race relations were deeply strained. Not unnaturally, he became involved in White identitarian politics, but, like so many starting out with good intentions, he ended up getting involved with toxic elements, like the remnants of Rockwell's American Nazi Party and the KKK. 

Like many mid-brained Americans, he may have been unable to understand the complex socio-economic and geopolitical forces that were shaping America and changing the South, without recourse to the all-embracing Semitic Panotheory that became the central core of his beliefs.

Accordingly, Duke became increasingly Jew-obsessed and "anti-Semitic" in his views, believing that "all powerful Jews" were running and ruining his world. His anti-Jewish views were so strong that he even developed relatively positive views of other racial groups, especially Palestinians. His supposed "affinity" for the poor oppressed Palestinians may also have been partly determined by the need for convenient "moral cover" for his less socially acceptable views on the Jews.

In his 20s, Duke tried his hand at writing under a female pseudonym, "Dorothy Vanderbilt," penning a book called "Finders-Keepers: Finding and Keeping the Man You Want" that advocated anal sex and notoriously gave advice on how to give a good blow job!

Duke later became a moderately successful minor politician and even served in the Louisiana House of Representatives for a few years (1989-92). However, he achieved little except perfecting an oleaginous speaking style and optics approach optimized for grifting on his less sophisticated brethren.

In 2002, he was found guilty of filing a false tax return and hiding donations, getting a 15-month stretch in federal prison. This case also revealed that he begged his supporters for financial help then misused the funds over a period of years on such things as gambling trips. Some of the money may also have been used on the large amount of plastic surgery that he seems to have subjected himself to (shades of "Dorothy Vanderbilt"). This level of cosmetic vanity gives off a weirdly sub-masculine vibe, reminiscent of other well-known Dissident Rightists, like Richard Spencer, Greg Johnson, and Nick Fuentes. This is significant as it suggests that people like this are recurring type in such politics. 

Although Duke represented a kind of "Palaeo-Nazi," grifter type that the Alt-Right was initially keen to avoid when the new movement emerged in 2010, Duke soon merged himself with the Alt-Right, becoming something of a meme, thanks to the highly dubious efforts of The Daily Stromer and TRS.  This helped to toxify the Alt-Right and seclude it from a wider political role, emphasised by Duke's attendance at the now notorious "Unite the Right" event in Charlottesville in 2017, which was then weaponised to demonise, demonetize, and deplatform (DDD again) much of the Dissident Right.

Earlier Duke also played a notable role in the fall of British nationalism, after Nick Griffin's associations with him were used to stigmatize the relatively successful BNP in 2009. He also served as a mentor for former BNP youth leader Mark Collett, and a sort of template for his recent rise to prominence among the online Alt-Right in the UK.

In the 2020 Presidential campaign Duke performed the basic Russian shill function of endorsing the Presidential candidate most calculated to cut back on America's overseas commitments, namely Tulsi Gabbard.

GAY TORIES SUPPORTING RISHI?

by Daniel Barge

According to Spectator columnist and "right-wing gatekeeper" Douglas Murray, the Tory Party is possibly the gayest organisation on the planet. In a recent column Murray wrote: 

In my own experience, the one thing that made the Conservative party conference any fun at all was that it is probably the gayest event in the UK social calendar. The Labour party conference is too filled with earnest hermaphrodites for any fun to be had. If you suggested sex at the Liberal Democrat conference you would probably be hauled out by the police – unless of course you were advocating sex with a minor. The Conservative party conference, by contrast, is an event so gay that it is almost unparalleled. The only two places I know that are almost as gay are Eurovision and the GAY club in Soho, and it’s still a photo finish.

Yes, sheer gay triumphalism. Pretty normal these days for what was once the leading conservative periodical.

In the same magazine, another gay Tory and ex-MP wrote about having a bath outside in his garden surrounded by his pet lamas!!!!

So, legitimate question to ask: how many gays are in the Tory Party and who are they supporting in the present leadership contest?

Of course, this being the Tory Party, most of them still want to keep it from voters and normal party members, so I would estimate only a third to a quarter are really being open about their sexuality. 

According to this rather well-sourced website there are 25 openly LGBTQ+ Tory MPs. They are: 

Antony Higginbotham MP for Burnley

Chris Clarkson MP for Heywood and Middleton

Crispin Blunt MP for Reigate

Damien Moore MP for Southport

Daniel Kawczynski for Shrewsbury and Atcham

David Mundell for Dumfriesshire, Clydesdale and Tweeddale

Dehenna Davison MP for Bishop Auckland

Elliot Colburn MP for Carshalton and Wallington

Gary Sambrook MP for Birmingham Northfield

Iain Stewart MP for Milton Keynes South

Jacob Young MP for Redcar

Jamie Wallis MP for Bridgend and Porthcawl

Kieran Mullan MP for Crewe and Nantwich

Lee Rowley MP for North East Derbyshire

Mark Fletcher for Bolsover

Mark Menzies MP for Fylde

Michael Fabricant MP for Lichfield

Mike Freer MP for Finchley and Golders Green

Nick Gibb MP for Bognor Regis and Littlehampton

Nigel Evans MP fpr Ribble Valley

Paul Holmes MP for Eastleigh

Peter Gibson MP for Darlington

Scott Benton MP for Blackpool South

Stuart Andrew MP for Pudsey

William Wragg MP for Hazel Grove

So how are the gays lining up in the latest leadership contest? Is there any pattern in their support? Is there a gay agenda of some kind? With over 70% of MPs having made their preference known, the gay MPs have lined up as follows:

Boris Johnson (4 out of 76) 5.2%

Antony Higginbotham MP for Burnley

Michael Fabricant MP for Lichfield

Scott Benton MP for Blackpool South

Chris Clarkson MP for Heywood and Middleton

Rishi Sunak (10 out of 151): 6.6%

Crispin Blunt MP for Reigate

Iain Stewart MP for Milton Keynes South

Nick Gibb MP for Bognor Regis and Littlehampton

David Mundell for Dumfriesshire, Clydesdale and Tweeddale

Jamie Wallis MP for Bridgend and Porthcawl

Mark Menzies MP for Fylde

Paul Holmes MP for Eastleigh
Mike Freer MP for Finchley and Golders Green

Peter Gibson MP for Darlington

Stuart Andrew MP for Pudsey

Penny Mordaunt (2 out of 28) 7.1%

Elliot Colburn MP for Carshalton and Wallington

Kieran Mullan MP for Crewe and Nantwich

Undeclared (9)

Damien Moore MP for Southport

Daniel Kawczynski for Shrewsbury and Atcham

Dehenna Davison MP for Bishop Auckland

Gary Sambrook MP for Birmingham Northfield

Jacob Young MP for Redcar

Lee Rowley MP for North East Derbyshire

Mark Fletcher for Bolsover

Nigel Evans MP fpr Ribble Valley

William Wragg MP for Hazel Grove

So, it is clear that Rishi has more gay supporters and a higher percentage of gay support (6.6%) than Johnson (5.2%). But Mordaunt, at 7.1%, is the most LGBTQ+ candidate.
 

HIGHLY SUSPICIOUS: BANNED HIPSTER DELETES ENTIRE SITE AFTER NEOKRAT FOCUSES ON HIM

Hispter Racist (aka Banned Hipster) has apparently deleted his entire site (comprising thousands of posts) following the publication of a brief factual essay on him published at this site. 

Here is how Hispter Racist's blog looks now:

He has also kiboshed his Substack, which he only set up recently. I guess we must call him "Self-Banned Hipster" now, LOL.

Even more intriguing, Blogspot, which is owned by "free speech" platform Google, actually deleted the post about Hipster Racist, which was called "WHO'S WHO IN THE DISSIDENT RIGHT: (((HIPSTER RACIST)))."

Luckily, it was archived here.

It is not known why the post was deleted, as there is nothing in the post that would merit that. (Judge for yourself by reading the archived version.) But it should be pointed out that the article was the most popular article on the Neokrat site, and contained some possibly over-perceptive comments about what sort of person Hipster Racist was.

What is MOST SURPRISING, however, is that Google deleted the post without informing the blog's owner. This is extremely odd because, although Google sometimes deletes posts for various fake "hate speech" reasons (and sometimes genuine hate speech reasons), even in cases like that it will send an email like this and offer a chance of a review.

This is an example of such an email provided by an entirely different blog: 

However, in the case of the deleted Hipster Racist post, no email was forthcoming. No appeal has been allowed. 

Is this therefore confirmation that Hipster Racist was always part of some weird Fed operation? 

Possibly. The influence needed to have the post pulled without even a word from Blogspot/Google to the site owner suggests something like that.

Also, there is the unanswered question of why Hipster Racist, ostensibly a half-deranged Diss-Righter with a compulsive need to post poor content and interact on comment boards at great length, should suddenly stop posting.

This looks not unlike some underfunded Fed operation realising that its usefulness was over and simply knocking it on the head.

Some of this speculation -- and it is only speculation -- may sound rather fanciful to people in 2022, but in the 2014-2018 heyday of the Hipster Racist blog, relatively small blogs exerted an important influence on the internal dynamics of the Alt-and-Dissident Right, while the Alt-and-Dissident Right clearly exerted an important influence on wider politics.

UK MICROPOLITICS: REFORM UK AND SDP AGREE GENERAL ELECTION PACT

It looks like two of Britain's micro-parties are looking into how to 'game' the unfair UK electoral system. The parties involved are Reform UK, formerly the Brexit Party, and the Social Democratic Party, a mini-populist party with leftist and nationalist tendencies.

According to a fresh statement on Reform UK's website, will see each party stand aside for the other in six key constituencies and will also see over a dozen candidates in the South Yorkshire area standing under the joint branding of "Reform UK & The Social Democratic Party (SDP)":

Speaking on the agreement, the Leader of The Social Democratic Party, William Clouston said, “I’m delighted that Reform UK and the SDP have agreed to work together at the next General Election. Our country has been badly mis-governed by the establishment parties and political and electoral reform is long overdue. We share a common vision with Richard Tice [Reform UK's leader] and his colleagues on how to achieve this.

"It’s true that the SDP has different ideas to Reform UK on economics and the role of the state but there is sufficient common ground to work together in the national interest. We value our independence but it’s the SDP tradition to work with others.

"We appreciated Reform UK’s endorsement in the recent South Yorkshire Mayoral election. It makes sense to keep our campaign teams in place and work closely together there.

WHAT DROVE NATO EXPANSION IN EASTERN EUROPE?

Chechnya

Vladimir Putin claims that the cause of the present war in the Ukraine is "aggressive" NATO expansion into the territories of the Warsaw Pact. How true is this? Is Russia really an innocent victim of the bullying West?

Let's consider the evidence. Since 1990 and the collapse of the Soviet Empire, NATO has been expanding eastwards. This happened in two main waves. In 1999 Poland, Czechia, and Hungary joined. Then in 2004 the three Baltic States (Estonia, Latvia, & Lithuania), Slovakia, Slovenia, Romania, and Bulgaria joined. 

It should be stressed that NATO is a purely defensive alliance and that none of these countries were coerced into joining it. All did so freely. This is in marked contrast to the former Warsaw Pact that dominated Eastern Europe during the Cold War. All the members of that organisation were there for one reason only -- they had been forced to join. 

Additionally, the first three Eastern European nations to join NATO were all nations that had been aggressively invaded by the Soviet Union.

In 1939 Poland had been invaded by the Red Army in conjunction with Nazi Germany. Five years later the country was invaded again by the Red Army, who rounded up, killed, or imprisoned anyone supporting an independent Poland. Likewise, the other two countries that joined in 1999 were also invaded by the Red Army. Indeed, they were invaded while they were actually members of the Warsaw Pact -- Hungary in 1956 and Czechia in 1968. So, it was not a very effective "alliance" for them.

Prague 1968

All three countries in the first wave of NATO expansion thus had a strong moral case to seek the sort of protection that the purely defensive NATO alliance could bring. Furthermore, even though Russia was "just about" a democracy during the 1990s, it was already showing signs of authoritarian rule and military revanchism. It fought its first brutal campaign in Chechnya between 1994 and 1996. Although it failed to bring the Chechens to heal, this was a good indicator or future Russian methods and intent.

A few months after this first wave of NATO expansion in 1999, the three new members must have been feeling very pleased with themselves, as Russia then embarked on a much more intense Second Chechen War. That destroyed much of Chechnya and led to numerous scenes like this:

The horrors of the Chechen War were a strong reminder to any country in Eastern Europe that trusting Russia and expecting it to "play nice" was a naïve approach. If Chechnya was on the menu so was any other former Soviet or Warsaw Pact territory. Naturally enough, there was a stampede to NATO's door. Having already allowed Poland, Czechia, and Hungary to join, how could NATO now say no to Romania or Estonia?

Yes, Russia, through its constant aggression in the past and more recently, has effectively pushed all NATO's new members to join.

This is also the case with NATO's two latest additions, Finland and Sweden, who were triggered into joining the Alliance by the recent invasion of the Ukraine.

If a country doesn't want to be surrounded by a defensive alliance, maybe it should simply try dialling back on the aggression and violence against its neighbours.
