This naturally included respect for the special role of the heterosexual family as the foundation stone of society. This in turn has led on to opposition to the cultural Marxist-led campaign to promote homosexuality as a ‘valid lifestyle choice’. Recent years have, however, seen the appearance of more and more ‘right-wing’ homosexuals, particularly motivated by opposition to Islamisation on the grounds that it is “bad for gays”. The so-called ‘Alt- Right’ in particular is now coming to resemble a ‘gay mafia’. This is true not only of its ‘liberal’ wing, sometimes known as the ‘Alt-Lite’, but also of its hard-right fringe. Can such a phenomenon truly be described as being of the ‘right’ at all, or is it in fact nothing more than a new brand of liberalism seeking to hijack traditionalist resistance to the PERSONAL INTRODUCTION BY THE threat posed by Islamism? This study examines AUTHOR the homosexualisation of the ‘right’ and places the The facts revealed in this book will deeply shock phenomenon in the context of a broader effort many people. Some are frankly hard even to believe, to capture and exploit the growing grass-roots but all are true. So the first thing I must do is to urge resistance to the globalist assault on tradition and you to take nothing for granted. I have provided identity. extensive references and I urge you to check them for yourself. This is why this study is extensively referenced. Do your own research and confirm for yourself that it is all true. Don’t be a sheep! Read, think, investigate and make up your own mind! Readers who have previously been sympathetic to some of the characters discussed here, perhaps agreeing with the common sense spoken on their video platforms, may well find the truths contained herein particularly disturbing. I can only impress on them the need to judge people not so much by what they say but by what they do. If we judged people by their words, then George Bush and Tony Blair would be highly regarded as great leaders but, as always, “by their fruits shall ye know them.” In particular, when examining those whose Alt- Right stance has given them lucrative careers as vloggers, podcasters and Twitter personalities, a good starting point is to ask how much of their massive incomes they are ploughing back into the movement? Throughout my five years as a Member of the European Parliament I gave, as I had pledged, a Biblical 10% tithe of my pre-tax income, plus 6 Alt Right? – NOT RIGHT! thousands of pounds from my surplus expenses, to Some people who stood with me when I was good causes in my constituency. Britain’s most notorious “Islamophobe” may briefly wonder if I have ‘gone soft on Islam’. The answer is Some of the individuals named in this study earn that I am as opposed to the Islamification of the very much more from their Alt-Right activities than West as I have ever been. But that does not remove I ever did, but what do they give to others? What from me the duty to oppose and expose those who do they give back to the Cause that funds their want us to fight Islam, not in order to protect our comfortable lifestyles? Why do so many hide behind peoples, homelands and traditional values and pseudonyms? How much of their fire and passion faith, but merely to use our sons and our taxes to do is genuine, and to what extent are they just telling their dirty work in the Middle East. people what they want to hear, making fortunes by selling easy answers and false hope? I call on them I was speaking out about the problems and to do the right thing. screaming injustices done to innocent people in Britain by the elite’s immigration and Islamification I have not enjoyed researching and writing this projects while most of those now making a good book.

My family and I paid the price direction they have taken, and it is uncomfortable for it in three gruelling Crown Court trials, under to have to do so.

But I cannot it, thereby becomes an accessory to the predatory sit back while the knaves among them twist my crimes of pederasts against the idealistic and naïve words to make a trap for fools. adolescent boys who get involved. To see, and not to speak, would be the great betrayal.

  • Populist Radical Right Parties in Europe
    This page intentionally left blank Populist radical right parties in Europe As Europe enters a significant phase of re-integration of East and West, it faces an increasing problem with the rise of far-right political par- ties. Cas Mudde offers the first comprehensive and truly pan-European study of populist radical right parties in Europe. He focuses on the par- ties themselves, discussing them both as dependent and independent variables. Based upon a wealth of primary and secondary literature, this book offers critical and original insights into three major aspects of European populist radical right parties: concepts and classifications; themes and issues; and explanations for electoral failures and successes. It concludes with a discussion of the impact of radical right parties on European democracies, and vice versa, and offers suggestions for future research. cas mudde is Senior Lecturer in the Department of Political Science at the University of Antwerp. He is the author of The Ideology of the Extreme Right (2000) and the editor of Racist Extremism in Central and Eastern Europe (2005).

  • 1 U.S. White Supremacy Groups Key Points
    U.S. White Supremacy Groups Key Points: • Some modern white supremacist groups, such as The Base, Hammerskin Nation, and Atomwaffen Division, subscribe to a National Socialist (neo-Nazi) ideology. These groups generally make no effort to hide their overt racist belief that the white race is superior to others. • Other modern white supremacist groups, however, propagate their radical stances under the guise of white ethno-nationalism, which seeks to highlight the distinctiveness––rather than the superiority––of the white identity. Such groups, which include the League of the South and Identity Evropa, usually claim that white identity is under threat from minorities or immigrants that seek to replace its culture, and seek to promote white ethno- nationalism as a legitimate ideology that belongs in mainstream political spheres. • Most modern white supremacist groups eschew violent tactics in favor of using demonstrations and propaganda to sway public opinion and portray their ideologies as legitimate. However, their racial elitist ideologies have nonetheless spurred affiliated individuals to become involved in violent altercations. • White supremacist groups often target youth for recruitment through propaganda campaigns on university campuses and social media platforms. White supremacists have long utilized Internet forums and websites to connect, organize, and propagate their extremist messages. Executive Summary Since the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) first formed in 1865, white supremacist groups in the United States have propagated racism, hatred, and violence. Individuals belonging to these groups have been charged with a range of crimes, including civil rights violations, racketeering, solicitation to commit crimes of violence, firearms and explosives violations, and witness tampering.1 Nonetheless, white supremacist groups––and their extremist ideologies––persist in the United States today.

  • Identitarian Movement
    Identitarian movement The identitarian movement (otherwise known as Identitarianism) is a European and North American[2][3][4][5] white nationalist[5][6][7] movement originating in France. The identitarians began as a youth movement deriving from the French Nouvelle Droite (New Right) Génération Identitaire and the anti-Zionist and National Bolshevik Unité Radicale. Although initially the youth wing of the anti- immigration and nativist Bloc Identitaire, it has taken on its own identity and is largely classified as a separate entity altogether.[8] The movement is a part of the counter-jihad movement,[9] with many in it believing in the white genocide conspiracy theory.[10][11] It also supports the concept of a "Europe of 100 flags".[12] The movement has also been described as being a part of the global alt-right.[13][14][15] Lambda, the symbol of the Identitarian movement; intended to commemorate the Battle of Thermopylae[1] Contents Geography In Europe In North America Links to violence and neo-Nazism References Further reading External links Geography In Europe The main Identitarian youth movement is Génération identitaire in France, a youth wing of the Bloc identitaire party.

  • Deafening Hate the Revival of Resistance Records
    DEAFENING HATE THE REVIVAL OF RESISTANCE RECORDS "HATECORE" MUSIC LABEL: COMMERCIALIZING HATE The music is loud, fast and grating. The lyrics preach hatred, violence and white supremacy. This is "hatecore" – the music of the hate movement – newly revived thanks to the acquisition of the largest hate music record label by one of the nation’s most notorious hatemongers. Resistance Records is providing a lucrative new source of revenue for the neo-Nazi National Alliance, which ADL considers the single most dangerous organized hate group in the United States today. William Pierce, the group's leader, is the author of The Turner Diaries, a handbook for hate that was read by convicted Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh prior to his April, 1995 bombing attack. The National Alliance stands to reap thousands of dollars from the sale of white supremacist and neo-Nazi music. Resistance Records, which has had a troubled history, has been revitalized since its purchase last year by William Pierce, leader of the National Alliance. Savvy marketing and the fall 1999 purchase of a Swedish competitor have helped Pierce transform the once-floundering label into the nation’s premiere purveyor of "white power" music. Bolstering sales for Resistance Records is an Internet site devoted to the promotion of hatecore music and dissemination of hate literature. Building a Lucrative Business Selling Hate Since taking the helm of Resistance Records after wresting control of the company from a former business partner, Pierce has built the label into a lucrative business that boasts a catalogue of some 250 hatecore music titles. His purchase of Nordland Records of Sweden effectively doubled the label’s inventory to 80,000 compact discs.
