  • Aristocratic Republic Is the Only Possible Application of Democracy

    Jan 10, 2020, 4:23 PM by Scott De Warren European democracy (a rare and delicate bird) was exclusively aristocratic from ancient Hellas down to modern times. The French counter-enlightenment spread the obvious lie of human equality to justify the proletarian revolution (overthrow of demonstrated excellence in governance) through the universal franchise. When leftists conflate the one with the other (Proletarian rule with aristocratic rule) they are lying. Historic European representative government either in ancient Hellas or the republics of Genoa and Venice was always based on a limited franchise (it was always aristocratic) as was the aristocratic republic of the United States ab origine. The only democracy worth preserving is the aristocratic kind where political participation is a privilege limited to families of demonstrated ability or excellence over time.

  • We Win When They Fire The First Shot

    Jan 18, 2020, 10:00 AM You know what I learned in Ukraine that applies?

    1. The minute they fire on you they lose – and the whole american empire and it’s entire world ‘brand’ and influence collapses. You want them to fire on you. You just want to minimize losses even if you generate heroes whose names end up on monuments.
    2. Fire is more effective than firearms, and doesn’t need courage or risk to do it’s job, like the energizer bunny it keeps on going.

    3. It takes a few hundred men to fight – the rest of the crowd serves as human shields the government can’t act against.

    4. Occupying Govt Buildings is more effective than fighting

    5. Controlling roads in and out is more effective than defending buildings.

    6. A city is full of cars with tires that make berms, burn, and generate smoke, and gasoline for use as weaponry. Anything on fire makes dramatic photos and footage.

    7. The government runs on water pressure, electricity, gasoline, both of which are in short supply, and without which there is little command and control.

    8. Politicians, Bureaucrats, Military and Police are People Too – and have families they care for more than their jobs.

    9. If you make clear reasonable demands, people don’t imagine the worst possible out come, and have incentive to settle.

    10. Every single day you siege, you learn.

    All I want out of the next few ‘attempts’ is to learn from the opposition. Because all that’s going to happen going forward is a continuous stream of escalation. Antifa(Black Hats) and the Right(Red Hats) have the same enemy, and if we separate into blue cities and red territories, we have the same goals. The enemy is the state and financial sector. Edit

    So, the strategy for the Right is to enumerate a set of ‘rights’ and demonstrate to demand our ‘rights’ including the right to self determination, the preservation of our culture, traditions, institutions, language, religion.

  • Some Thoughts on The Richmond Rally

    Jan 21, 2020, 4:20 PM by Julian le Roux

    1. We couldn’t have hoped for a better outcome.
    2. I was expecting much smaller attendance and at least some serious conflict.
    3. Amazing demonstration of the level of self-control, civilization (and conviviality to boot) amongst the Right.
    4. Further to (3), I imagine the Left / media will have a very hard time manipulating or memory-holing such a unambiguous message.
    5. Overwhelming safety-in-numbers should provide a huge boost to morale and willingness to participate.
    6. The show of force has ensured that no-one can claim that they weren’t respectfully warned about the Rights’ commitment and seriousness. The fact that a clear message has been sent, supports the Right moral justification should future events require stronger action.
    7. The ball has moved forward substantially for Peaceful Separation, and the rally has opened up new avenues to normalize that narrative.
    8. It’s become easier to assert that the Right Desires Peace.
    9. Again, being able to claim the mantle of Peace helps to draw in more normies and shift them towards our position.
