in reply to Simmons:
I could not agree with you more; it has taken me a great deal of effort to come to this position, and I have finally accepted him on the personal experience I have with my nephews.
Frankly, I recall the words of Yockey, that Race has a vertical component, as well as a horizontal component. I see now how correct he was.
I have pretty much given up on trying to "convert" people to White Nationalism; I simply treat it like I do Christianity - offer my example, given them a few Ideas, and keep moving. If they are ready, they will be back to talk some more.
Most people are, essentially, comfortably Asleep, and will only begin to Awaken when all has fallen around them - and, many will fight to remain Asleep, even then.
As I look back on my ideological development, I see a handful of disconcerting Patterns that force me to routinely, and ruthlessly, examine and reexamine, so many of my beliefs.
I believed in Buckley/Goldwater CONservatism, and was only shocked out this when I realized certain Western interests literally kept the Soviet Union going, even supplying grain at below-market rates to help avoid starvation - the universal precondition for rebellion.
I believed in Christianity as it was taught to me, until I read a history of the Bible, and then, histories of the development of Institutional Christianity.
I think most men begin to Awaken at about age forty, when they think, "Damn, but I've been a fool!" Most, however, seem to fight the implications of this, and simply go through the motions for the rest of their lives, being tranquilized by readily available alcohol, prescription tranquilizers, or the color television.
Spengler was essentially correct when he saw the Prime Symbol for the Western Soul as being the Infinite Plane; yet, the question that we seem to miss is, "What do we DO about this?"
We are the explorers, and willingly set aside much of the Forms of the Past, to build a newer, better Future. Thus, the Infinite Plane is the Prime Symbol that represents something for which there IS no symbol, and that is the Western Soul's unique Aspect - The Need To Achieve, defined, at least in part, by McClelland's nAch test.
I was talking with a militant Black social worker during the late 70's - early 80's, and she said "something was going to have to be done. There's just too many White Men out of work, and if White Men aren't doing something, they just go crazy. Can't have that!"
I think of the hillbilly town my nephews have escaped from, and realize just how right she was. The only businesses that are doing well are the ABC Store (alcohol), the unemployment/welfare office, and the drug store, and it's lottery terminal.
Nothing to do, and the people are medicating themselves to Sleep.
My anger - my exasperation - is from realizing that, at virtually all points, everything that seemed to offer a Solution to us had been co-opted as a social control mechanism, to serve the ends of our Racial Enemies.
At all points, Traps had been set.
CONservatism?
Transformed by Buckley to be international, and agressively pro-Israel.
Cold War?
We were supplying them with financing, and food.
(here we go....)
White Nationalist Organizations?
The ONE thing they truly fear is the White Race organizing along Racial lines.
Consider Dr. Oliver's experience at the National Review, and the John Birch Society - all convenient False Flags designed to harmlessly dissipate any sort of effective White Racial organizing.
Consider Pierce's National Alliance - supporting everything except the ONE thing that will have a substantial effect over time, and that is some sort of developing, and training, people in the skills of political organization.
Even if that Initiative took decades to mature - and Perot showed us lighting can strike in years, instead of decades - it would be the stepping stone for a qualitative shift in American politics.
Never happened; instead, Pierce wasted the time of one and all by taking the speeches of Kevin Alfred Strom, on Strom's American Dissident Voices, and doing everything but laying the Foundation for a qualitative shift in American politics.
So much of what I was taught was true has turned out to be false, that I am forced to go to brass tacks in almost every discussion.
Fortunately, these discussions are with my nephews, and a very few people who are interested in them.
We've fallen into Cults of the Great Man of one kind or another - Buckley, Pierce, whoever - and the spiritual forces that led us to those Cults were blocked from further expression BY those Cults.
Useful as stepping stones, they soon became stumbling blocks...
I used to wonder why men like Pierce attacked Christianity so strongly, and yet did not see the importance of finding a common ground with the developing Christian Right, which, given the right circumstances, would be fertile ground for accepting White Nationalist Ideas - certainly, our Ideals overlap to a remarkable degree.
I used to wonder, but not any more.
Simmons, I've pretty much written off a LOT of the nominally "White" Race - they do not care to move the ball down the field, or take the Next Step.
And that's fine.
The Alternative Nation begins with the Christian Evangelicals, who are trapped in the union of Cult and Religion, fragmenting along the lines of megachurch membership. Yet, megachurches ARE small communities, and are developing a range of service to meet the needs of the membership - including alternative schooling to support and complement the home school system. These communities are being led - and managed - by small-scale political leaders...
And that is one place I shall encourage my nephews to go.
They are engaged with the local Ron Paul Meet-Ups, and are signed up for political management courses with the local Democratic Committee.
I've had them take other courses of instruction as well, in addition to their ongoing judo training; I shall discuss these in time.
Now, they are ready - I'll spring for them to have a couple of good suits, and shoes - to begin to participate in the developing civil life of the local megachurches.
They will attend them all - ALL offer servies and "programs" during the week, so they will be in a very dense environment for training and development.
The one Idea I shall have them try out is this:
Where we use the term "Race," they use the term "Family."
Same concepts, just replacing one word with another.
I suspect the Western Soul's Need To Achieve, working in the Infinite Plane, has required a great willingness to not be trapped in the Forms of the Past.
They won't make THAT mistake!
