How to build political mass from scratch

Posted by Guessedworker on Tuesday, 19 June 2007 00:33.

An interesting article by Tom Stanwell titled The power of the people was posted today at Welf Herfurth’s quite radical New Right Australia/New Zealand blog.  It offers a means - somewhat alcoholic it’s true - to bypass the usual governmental and crazed-antifa blocks on the development of local nationalist organisations.  Here is the article in full.

1. Introduction

In past articles, we have discussed mass movements and how important mass mobilisation is for building a political base and eventually achieving political power. This really is the question of all politics: how to get a sufficient majority on one’s side in order to carry out one’s political agenda. All politicians, no matter their affiliation or ideology, have to struggle with this. Nationalists are no different. Nationalism, I think, is even more mass-based than conventional liberal-democratic ideologies. It relies on mass force, mass mobilisation, and is democratic (by Carl Schmitt’s definition of democracy). Through people power, and the dictatorship of the democratic mass, nationalists can overturn existing laws and bring about radical constitutional change.

This is easy enough to understand: it is the doing that is the problem. The majority of nationalists, in Australia, at least, are isolated. They exist behind the Internet, find it hard to reach out to nationalists, and certainly cannot build up the numbers to put together a decent demo. So how do we go about building up a mass support base? In this article, I will concentrate on how to form the beginnings of a political movement, starting with the most basic steps. (As Mao Tse-Tung put it, the longest journey starts with the smallest steps). I will be talking about some of the organisational techniques by nationalists in Germany - in particular, those used by the Freie Kameradschaften/Freie Nationalisten(Free Comradeships/Free Nationalists) movements, already detailed, to a certain extent, in Welf Herfurth’s previous article, On Kameradenschaft. This is particularly relevant to the nationalist struggle in Australia because these ideas have been applied in nationalist circles in my capital city with some success. These methods are already being applied, equally successfully, in other capital cities in Australia.

I have often heard other nationalist activists complain that ‘We don’t have the numbers’ that our European comrades are blessed with, and that we lack their organisational élan. Here I say no, it is not the case at all: we do have the numbers in Australia, and we do have grounds for optimism - it is that we are going about it the wrong way. Fortunately for us, the solutions are simple, and easy to apply.

The Bear’s Lair: The teetering domino

Posted by Guessedworker on Monday, 18 June 2007 23:47.

Martin Hutchinson’s latest offering at Prudent Bear revisits the geopolitics of Ukraine.  It is a subject we have covered only once, quite early on in the Orange Revolution.

Ukrainian politics are uniquely fascinating, however, since they juxtapose competing popular wills, competing visions of bureacratic governance, and the greater regional issue of competing Western liberal and Russian hegemonies.  And overlaying everything is, for MRers, the wryest juxtaposition of all: that to the east lies both a bulwark against the nation-destroying forces of the West and, at some level, a murderous, near-Asiatic disrespector of political opponents.  Thus flawed, then - a breaker of eggs - does Russia offer hope or disillusionment?

Here’s Martin decisively choosing, from his usual economic perspective, the latter.

GW


The apparent revival of the Cold War by Vladimir Putin causes those of us nostalgic for the unpleasant certainties of a bipolar world to ponder whether the Domino Theory should also be revived. Indeed it should, and the domino currently wobbling most vigorously, magnificent in its precariousness, is Ukraine. Ukraine gets limited press in the West, but its fate over this long summer may well determine the geo-strategic and economic outlook for the next generation.

Contrary to most Western reporting on Ukraine, the struggle there is not bipolar but tripolar. Favoring an economy dominated by publicly owned behemoths of heavy industry is the current prime minister Viktor Yanukovych, strong in the ethnically Russian eastern areas of the country and proponent of closer ties with Moscow.

Vladimir Putin regarded Yanukovych as the natural successor to Ukraine’s previous corrupt and economically stagnant president Leonid Kuchma, so when in 2004 his election was opposed by the “Orange Revolution” of pro-Western forces he was furious, believing that the West had no business interfering in an election so close to the Russian heartland.

He need not have worried. The Orange Revolution candidate for President Viktor Yushchenko, in spite of having married an American wife and during the campaign suffering a mysterious poisoning that would foreshadow the unexpected demise of so many of Russia’s opponents in years to come, was a weak social democrat, also favoring a group of big corporate oligarchs, those of ethnically Ukrainian nationality from western Ukraine. 

Essentially, like so many East European leaders from Mikhail Gorbachev through the socialists currently running Hungary, Yushchenko believed in an a non-existent “Third Way” under which a nominally capitalist economy would avoid the disruption of rapid change and preserve existing business structures. He was thus favored by the EU, the Financial Times and the Ukrainian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, all of whom tend to like social democrat compromisers who won’t rock the boat. Nevertheless, when the Orange Revolution won the election re-run in December 2004, the world outside the Kremlin rejoiced.

It quickly became obvious that the Orange Revolution forces were far from united. Yushchenko appointed as prime minister his main ally, Julia Tymoshenko, but within a year had fallen out with her, to the extent that he dismissed her and called new elections in early 2006. These resulted in the revival of Yanukovych as leader of the largest party in parliament, with Tymoshenko second and Yushchenko’s forces reduced to third. Even though Yushchenko and Tymoshenko still had a parliamentary majority if their forces combined, Yushchenko chose to throw in his lot with Yanukovych.

Fred Thompson Ploy Fails the Jews

Posted by James Bowery on Sunday, 17 June 2007 18:24.

The NY Times reports that:

“Senate leaders announced an agreement this evening to put a comprehensive immigration bill back on track for further debate and possible passage.”

“Senators Harry Reid, the Democratic majority leader from Nevada, and Mitch McConnell, the Republican minority leader from Kentucky, agreed on a timetable for the bill and for a limited number of amendments to be offered.”

I suspect they wouldn’t have tried this without having actor/senator Fred Thompson to wave around at the Republican base to distract them from Ron Paul.  But this ain’t 1980, umpteen-channel cable TV ain’t 3-network broadcast TV, Thompson ain’t Reagan and the Internet is here.  Just look at what happened to Fred’s website traffic after the initial push by Mossad plant, Jim Robinson over at Freerepublic.com and compare to Ron Paul (whose sportsbook.com odds have gone from 200:1 to 7:1 during the last month):

What are they going to try next?  They’re getting desperate. 

PS: Perhaps this is unrelated but Google has stopped updating their Google trends statistics which means you can’t compare how the various candidates are faring in search engine queries.  That they stopped updating at the point where Mossad candidate Rudy Giuliani started falling behind Ron Paul even as LDS candidate Mitt Romney showed strength is circumstantially suspicious.

Freetown Massacre of the RUF

Posted by Guest Blogger on Sunday, 17 June 2007 11:09.

Warfare as waged by Sub-Saharan Africans is significantly more chaotic and excessively brutal than that which was known historically in Europe. In order to get a taste for what African warfare entails, I catalogued some passages from a 1999 Human Rights Watch report  on the RUF’s massacre in Sierra Leone.

Some of the readership will wonder what connection this has to political theory or our situation in the West.  Well, there are several, but let me suggest just one. We have to cultivate a more coarse, and less squeemish sensibility for all things. We have to be able to look every truth in the face, regardless of whether it’s aesthetically pleasing. This is a lesson in itself, to halt the recoil of aesthetic reflexes and digest the ugliness of the world without flinching and without conceptual cushioning. Don’t draw back into your Victorian or Edwardian citadel - these people now live amongst us. Let us, instead, look at them in an unflattering but not uncharacteristic moment, as they slay each other in their natural habitat.

“Lost Lands” and The Tragedy of London: John Derbyshire as Grief-Thief

Posted by Guest Blogger on Saturday, 16 June 2007 15:10.

John Derbyshire is a smooth operator. A mathematician who gained fame writing for National Review, he married a Chinese and emigrated to the United States. Who better to inform us about internationalism, and the right way and wrong way of thinking about it? In 2001 he wrote an article for National Review Online where he condemned nations who held greivances over pieces of land formerly in their possession. The piece opens up with a quote from Osama Bin Laden:

Let the whole world know that we shall never accept that the tragedy of Andalusia would be repeated in Palestine. We cannot accept that Palestine will become Jewish.

Osama bin Laden, October 7th

He then explains how the tragedy of Andalusia’ refers to the loss of Andalusia to the Reconquista, and marvels that this fact should remain in the memory of the Ummah. What follows are his listing the greivances of the Irish and Chinese against the English, recounted as personal anecdotes. And in each case, he minimizes the claims on the basis of time passed and the supposedly impotent stance of countries who would need to nourish such greivances. Reflecting on his Irish friends discussing Ulster in a bar with some sense of passion, he writes: “An awful long time to be nursing a grievance, I thought quietly to myself.” The grievance-thief, the stealer of long-cherished bile, continued:

“And of course, thoughtful Moslems surveying the complete failure of the House of Islam to come to terms with the modern world, are likewise humiliated, and salve their hurt pride by picking at 500-year-old wounds.”

We Shall Meet in the Temple of Silence

Posted by Guessedworker on Saturday, 16 June 2007 14:27.

A poem by Xenia Sunic

In the temple of silence
We shall meet one day,
When winter starts fading away,
And the weary stars
Fall on the grass,
And turn into yellow primroses—
Heavy with cold spring silver dew,
Imbued, with the pale mystery
Of the moon that moves
Into the remotest corners
Of the living roots—in the dark earth;
That blooms with the early spring flowers
Whose strange sweet scent,
Reminiscent of winter’s death,
Springs into new life’s creation
In the unusual morning twilight,
When the pregnant, pink moon starts waning,
Under her white lace covered face.

Intoxicated with night’s love,
She vibrates her passionate flow of tenderness,
Through gleaming river of stars;
And discloses her naked beauty
To the rousing sun
In the temple of silence;
Where the new spring is being born,
In magic sun cycles-
And Mnemosyne enters,
With wreath of wild flowers
On the wings of Northern wind,
And plays the music,
Of the lone wolf howling in the wilderness—
That echoes through the ancient memory
Of blood consciousness, and wild yearnings.


The day they started talking Integration - Updated 15th June

Posted by Guessedworker on Friday, 15 June 2007 00:00.

Today, the 14th June 2007, should go down in

English

history as the day the Establishment began to speak “Integration”.  It is a language based on the ancient liberal root of Coercion.  All the presumptive nouns are Coercive, especially the one used to re-classify those unfortunates who

are

were inconveniently English.  You can learn that and many other new Integration words here (PDF).

It’s the final report of the The Commission on Integration and Cohesion, a fine body of superdiversity-loving, glocalists who have been meditating upon Our Shared Future.

For that’s the title of their 168-page opus published today.  It is a tour de farce of inclusion-speak, informed as it is by such One-Guardian-Buying-Man-Bands as multikulti.org, Clever Ted Cantle’s Institute of Community Cohesion, Big Wide Talk, One London, Clever Ted Cantle’s IDeA, and such luminaries as our old friends, Sir Keith Ajegbo and Clever Ted Cantle, and the altogether more formidable and dangerous Steve Vertovec.

Now, it isn’t fair to ask you to wade through 168-pages of the direst, most self-deceiving drivel ever written by a man named Singh.  So I’ve sort of speed-read it for you ... well, bits of it anyway.  And here’s what I have learned.  Whether we are black, white or Singh-coloured we are all British together and we going to stay that way - got it?  And we all need to be helped by skilled mediators (that’s Integrationist for The Clever One) to understand our shared humanity and completely unexpected interest in chapati-baking.  La la la.  Dah doo ron ron.

I also did a bit of searching through the pdf to see how my perpetually house-moving but, of course, integration-mad “group” can be described, should one ever wish to do so for some utterly unimaginable reason:-

Indigenous - 0 results

Native - 0 results

English - 51 results, 50 of them about the learning of the English language.  Generously, the other one says:-

Our interim statement clearly set out the importance of speaking English – with 60% of respondents in our MORI polling identifying language as the main ingredient of “being English” – and we have been heartened that much of the feedback we have received since has strongly agreed with this principle.

So, no acknowledgement that an ancient people actually own these islands.  Our “main ingredient” is that we speak a language everybody else can learn.  And that’s all there is, really.  Except for the “w” word ...

White - 29 results, 16 of them referring to skin-colour.

Yay ... in Integration-speak I am white.  White I am.  White.  And white are we.  As white as a white person who arrived in Southampton yesterday from Poland, or in London from Turkey, or in Slough from charming, gypsyless Slovakia.  White, white, white.  Yes, England was always a country of immigrants.  Some of them as white as The Seven Sisters and old as the Henge.

But so what?  There is obviously nothing to stop us mutually-respecting, Pidgin English-speaking, glocalist, vibrant rainbow-Brits from doing just as the smiling Mr Singh and his cohesive friends desire.  Tolerance here I come.

Well, not quite.  Because at 1 hour 40 minutes into today’s BBC Radio Five Live Matthew Bannister Show a 21-year old, hijab-wearing economic migrant and Respect member named Rania announced that the BNP must be banned from public life.  Something to do with hate, apparently.  Possibly because a remarkably tolerant Nick Griffin had just negotiated an hour-long interview by Bannister beforehand without a snag.

You will enjoy listening to that more than wading through the Cohesion crap.  Look out for Bannister’s friendly telephone interview with the frightful Prof Sally Tomlinson, a fluent speaker of the Integrationist tongue.

Let’s do the math, Landsburg

Posted by Guest Blogger on Wednesday, 13 June 2007 20:42.

Steven Landsburg is an economist who brags about the quality of the department in which he teaches, and who was savaged a couple of years ago by Pat Buchanan in The American Conservative:-

... wrote the professor from the University of Rochester, “Both major parties (and most of the minor ones) are infested with protectionist fellow travellers who would discriminate on the basis of national origin no less virulently than David Duke or any other overt racist would discriminate on the basis of skin color. But if racism is morally repugnant—and it is—then so is xenophobia…”

Declares Landsburg: “I hold this truth to be self-evident: It is just plain ugly to care more about total strangers in Detroit than about total strangers in Juarez. ... Even if Kerry-style (or Nader-style or Buchanan-style) protectionism could improve Americans’ well-being at the expense of foreigners, it would still be wrong.”

... To be more concerned about the well-being of one’s fellow Americans is not “xenophobia,” which means a fear or hatred or foreigners. It is patriotism, which entails a special love for one’s own country and countrymen, not a hatred of any other country or people. Preferring Americans no more means hating other peoples than preferring one’s family means hating all other families. An icy indifference as to whether one’s countrymen are winning—be it in a competition for jobs or Olympic medals—is moral treason and the mark of a dead soul.

The allegedly soulless Landsburg - who, of course, has a Jewish soul - has now written an absurdly comical piece titled One Fifth of an American.  It appeared in Slate Magazine yesterday:-
