Für Deutsche, die es noch sein wollen. Für die Menschheit. Wahrheit sagen, Teufel jagen Wie ein alter kleiner Mann im karierten Hemd zum Autor sprach Autor: Gerard Menuhin „Trauer ist Wissen; jene, die am meisten wissen, müssen angesichts der verhängnisvollen Wahrheit am tiefsten trauern, denn der Baum der Erkenntnis ist nicht jener des Lebens.“ – Byron, „Manfred“ Inhalt: Kapitel I - Vereitelt: Der letzte verzweifelte Griff der Menschheit nach Freiheit Kapitel II - Identifiziert: Illumination oder die Diagnose der Finsternis Kapitel III - Ausgelöscht: Zivilisation Kapitel IV - Endstadium: Das kommunistische Vasallentum Kapitel I Vereitelt: Der letzte verzweifelte Griff der Menschheit nach Freiheit Dieser Hund ist ein Labrador. Er bellt nur selten und ist gutmütig, wie die meisten Labradore. Ab und zu begleite ich seinen Herrn bei einem seiner täglichen Spaziergänge mit seinem Tier. Er ist ein Zeuge Jehovas. Anfangs tat er seine Pflicht, indem er versuchte, mich zu bekehren, doch ich sagte ihm, ich glaube an nichts, was ich nicht sehen könne, und er verzichtete auf weitere fruchtlose Bekehrungsversuche. Wenn ich irgendetwas verehren müsste, würde meine Wahl auf die Bäume fallen. Bäume haben zweierlei mit einer Volkskultur und einer verarbeitenden Wirtschaft gemeinsam: Sie sind wie diese im Boden verwurzelt und ungemein beständig. Eine saisonabhängige Wirtschaft oder eine Dienstleistungswirtschaft, die eine Gemeinschaft wankelmütiger Konsumenten bedient, ist instabil. Jeder Baum ist zahllose Konsumenten wert, denn diese produzieren nur selten etwas Nützliches. Was sie können und auch oft tun, ist Bäume zerstören. Ein Rohling mit einer Kettensäge kann innerhalb von Sekunden zu Fall bringen, was vielleicht Jahrhunderte gebraucht hat, um seine gegenwärtige Größe zu erreichen. Stellen Sie sich eine Eiche vor. Dieser bewundernswerte Baum steht auf einem Hügel und bietet einen majestätischen Anblick. Sein zerfurchter Stamm ragt zum Himmel empor. Er hat mehr Jahre erlebt, als dies je einem Menschen vergönnt war. Er hat unzähligen Winterstürmen getrotzt. Selbst ohne Blätter flösst er noch Ehrfurcht ein. Er braucht nichts zu tun, er existiert einfach. Doch dann kommt ein Konsument (ein Organismus, der sich verschafft, was er begehrt, indem er sich an einem anderen Organismus bedient) mit einer Säge und fällt die Eiche, um daraus Bretter oder auch nur Brennholz zu machen. Wem gehört Ihre Sympathie, diesem Organismus oder der Eiche? Halten Sie mir, der ich mich so abschätzig über diesen Konsumenten äußere, bitte keine Vorträge über Menschenwürde. Ich bin schon seit langem keinem würdigen Menschen mehr begegnet, sofern ich überhaupt je einen kennengelernt habe. Würde bedingt nämlich persönliche Verantwortung. Mit der Menschenwürde verhält es sich wie mit den Menschenrechten – auch diese sind ein künstliches Konzept, das von künstlichen, kosmopolitischen Organisationen wie den Vereinten Nationen oder dem Gerichtshof für Menschenrechte erfunden wurde, um nationale Gesetze zu verdrängen; sie sind leeres Gerede, welches das Ziel verfolgt, althergebrachte Rechte zu usurpieren. Unter Berufung auf die betrügerische Menschenrechtserklärung von 1789 haben diese Organisationen die hohlen Schlagworte Freiheit, Gleichheit, Brüderlichkeit zu einer Art Religionsersatz erhoben. Wenn das Recht auf saubere Luft und sauberes Wasser sowie auf Rede- und Versammlungsfreiheit nicht garantiert ist, wozu sind diese hochtönenden Erklärungen dann gut? Mein Nachbar und ich sind uns über viele Dinge einig, doch wie die meisten Sekten glauben auch die Zeugen Jehovas, Christus werde wiederkehren, um sie zu erretten. Ich lasse mich über die allgemeine Degradierung aus, und er antwortet mir mit Zitaten aus der Heiligen Schrift, die ich zu Hause dann überprüfe. Sie stimmen immer. Ich nenne die Schuldigen beim Namen; für ihn ist der Schuldige Satan. Die Bibel hat tatsächlich alles vorausgesehen: Johannes 8:44 oder auch Offenbarung 2:9, wenn Ihnen das lieber ist. Somit haben wir beide recht. Ich glaube, es begann mit einer dumpfen Vorahnung, mehr war es nicht. Nicht einmal ein vages Gefühl, geschweige denn die Gewissheit, dass alles, was man dem Durchschnittskind über große historische Ereignisse eintrichtert, Lug und Trug ist. Es war nicht mehr als ein leiser, nagender Zweifel. Mein Vater sprach nie vom Krieg, wie er überhaupt nie von negativen oder unangenehmen Dingen sprach und es möglich tunlichst vermied, die Vergangenheit zur Sprache zu bringen. Meine Mutter hingegen sprach die meiste Zeit über von der Vergangenheit. Von ihrer Vergangenheit. Doch je nach Stimmung sprach sie auch von der Überlegenheit der edwardianischen Architektur über die viktorianische, oder von ihrem unfehlbaren Gefühl für Kleidung und Zierart, oder über ihre Kriegserlebnisse. Sie vertrat die Überzeugungen ihrer Generation, darunter jene, dass Churchill ein großer Mann und Neville Chamberlain ein einfältiger Gimpel gewesen sei (das Wort „appeasement“, „Beschwichtigungspolitik“, muss seinen anrüchigen Klang unbedingt beibehalten, obwohl jeder Versuch, einen Krieg zu verhindern, doch lobenswert ist). Zwar sagte sie meinem Bruder und mir bisweilen mit Gruselstimme: „Wenn ihr in Deutschland gelebt hättet, wäret ihr vergast worden“ („ihr“, nicht „wir“!), doch war sie keinesfalls deutschfeindlich eingestellt und konnte sogar ein wenig Deutsch. Natürlich bildete Deutschland keinen Teil ihrer Vergangenheit und wurde deshalb auch nicht erwähnt, wenn sie, was sie ständig tat, über ihre Erinnerungen sprach. Ich bin nie einem Menschen begegnet, dessen Ansichten so vorbehaltlos auf althergebrachten Kriterien beruhten wie bei meiner Mutter und der jede Veränderung so resolut ablehnte wie sie. Sie duldete die Gegenwart, beurteilte sie jedoch stets vom Standpunkt ihrer eigenen Vergangenheit, so unmaßgeblich diese auch sein mochte. Bis in meine späteren Teenagerjahre beruhten meine Vorstellungen vom Zweiten Weltkrieg fast ausschließlich auf illustrierten Büchern über die Abenteuer heroischer alliierter Soldaten, die in der Schule als „Schundliteratur“ galten (unter dem Eindruck dieser Schriften war ich ein eifriger Kritzler von Schlachtschiffen und Flugzeugen). Wenn ich zuhören musste, wie meine Mutter vom „Blitz“ (d. h. den deutschen Luftangriffen auf London) erzählte, hörte ich manchmal nur mit halbem Ohr hin oder vergaß diese unermüdlich wiederholten Anekdoten sogar absichtlich, weil ich einen gewissen Widerwillen gegen sie empfand. Heute bedaure ich dies, denn auch ein subjektiv gefärbter Erlebnisbericht über das Leben im London der Kriegszeit wäre sehr informativ gewesen. Doch die Art und Weise, wie meine Mutter ihre Monologe hielt, ließ wenig Raum für Fragen, hätte sie solche doch nur als unerwünschte Unterbrechungen ihrer vorprogrammierten „Rundfunksendung“ betrachtet. Bei den seltenen Besuchen, die meine Eltern meiner deutschen Schule im Jahre 1957 abstatteten, brachte meine Mutter wiederholt das „Wirtschaftswunder“ zur Sprache, den raschen Wiederaufbau der deutschen Städte und der deutschen Industrie nach dem Krieg. Ich war damals neun Jahre alt, und dieses Phänomen war mir ebenso wenig bewusst wie die Absurdität der Tatsache, dass zwei hochentwickelte angelsächsische Nationen einander bis aufs Messer bekämpft hatten. Ungefähr fünfzehn Jahre später hörte ich einen hitzköpfigen amerikanischen Oberst am Radio folgendes zutreffende Urteil fällen: „Dass sich Briten und Deutschland auf dem Schlachtfeld gegenüberstanden, war völlig unlogisch.“ Sämtliche Deutschen, die ich kannte, waren ungemein liebenswert und fielen höchstens dadurch auf, dass sie anscheinend alle dasselbe Modell eines glänzenden dunkelblauen Anzugs besaßen – vielleicht ein Hinweis darauf, wie sehr sie sich nach einer Rückkehr zu geordneten bürgerlichen Verhältnissen sehnten. Die Schülerinnen und Schüler in Hermannsberg waren ebenfalls Paradebeispiele für Normalität: In ihrer Freizeit beschäftigten sie sich mit Spiel und Sport, vergnügten sich, hörten Musik und gaben sich allerlei Aktivitäten im Freien hin. Dass ihre und meine Vorfahren dazu angestachelt worden waren, sich gegenseitig an die Gurgel zu fahren, wurde mir gar nicht erst bewusst. Der einzige Hinweis auf den Krieg, an den ich mich erinnere, war ein Wortwechsel zwischen zwei älteren Knaben, den ich mitbekam, während ich mich nach der morgendlichen Dusche abtrocknete: Sie erzählten, was sie über das Schicksal deutscher Kriegsgefangener in Russland gehört hatten. Obwohl dies nichts weiter als typisches

  • 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. In Sweden, identitarianism has been promoted by a now inactive organisation Nordiska förbundet which initiated the online encyclopedia Metapedia.[16] It then mobilised a number of "independent activist groups" similar to their French counterparts, among them Reaktion Östergötland and Identitet Väst, who performed a number of political actions, marked by a certain

  • A Content Analysis of Persuasion Techniques Used on White Supremacist Websites
    A Content Analysis of Persuasion Techniques Used on White Supremacist Websites Georgie Ann Weatherby, Ph.D. Gonzaga University Brian Scoggins Gonzaga University Criminal Justice Graduate I. INTRODUCTION The Internet has made it possible for people to access just about any information they could possibly want. Conversely, it has given organiza- tions a vehicle through which they can get their message out to a large audience. Hate groups have found the Internet particularly appealing, because they are able to get their uncensored message out to an unlimited number of people (ADL 2005). This is an issue that is not likely to go away. The Supreme Court has declared that the Internet is like a public square, and it is therefore unconstitutional for the government to censor websites (Reno et al. v. American Civil Liberties Union et al. 1997). Research into how hate groups use the Internet is necessary for several reasons. First, the Internet has the potential to reach more people than any other medium. Connected to that, there is no way to censor who views what, so it is unknown whom these groups are trying to target for membership. It is also important to learn what kinds of views these groups hold and what, if any, actions they are encouraging individuals to take. In addition, ongoing research is needed because both the Internet and the groups themselves are constantly changing. The research dealing with hate websites is sparse. The few studies that have been conducted have been content analyses of dozens of different hate sites. The findings indicate a wide variation in the types of sites, but the samples are so broad that no real patterns have emerged (Gerstenfeld, Grant, and Chiang 2003).

  • FUNDING HATE How White Supremacists Raise Their Money
    How White Supremacists FUNDING HATE Raise Their Money 1 RESPONDING TO HATE FUNDING HATE INTRODUCTION 1 SELF-FUNDING 2 ORGANIZATIONAL FUNDING 3 CRIMINAL ACTIVITY 9 THE NEW KID ON THE BLOCK: CROWDFUNDING 10 BITCOIN AND CRYPTOCURRENCIES 11 THE FUTURE OF WHITE SUPREMACIST FUNDING 14 2 RESPONDING TO HATE How White Supremacists FUNDING HATE Raise Their Money It’s one of the most frequent questions the Anti-Defamation League gets asked: WHERE DO WHITE SUPREMACISTS GET THEIR MONEY? Implicit in this question is the assumption that white supremacists raise a substantial amount of money, an assumption fueled by rumors and speculation about white supremacist groups being funded by sources such as the Russian government, conservative foundations, or secretive wealthy backers. The reality is less sensational but still important. As American political and social movements go, the white supremacist movement is particularly poorly funded. Small in numbers and containing many adherents of little means, the white supremacist movement has a weak base for raising money compared to many other causes. Moreover, ostracized because of its extreme and hateful ideology, not to mention its connections to violence, the white supremacist movement does not have easy access to many common methods of raising and transmitting money. This lack of access to funds and funds transfers limits what white supremacists can do and achieve. However, the means by which the white supremacist movement does raise money are important to understand. Moreover, recent developments, particularly in crowdfunding, may have provided the white supremacist movement with more fundraising opportunities than it has seen in some time. This raises the disturbing possibility that some white supremacists may become better funded in the future than they have been in the past.

  • 1 Understanding the Zionist World Cons Piracy
    1 Understanding The Zionist World Cons piracy Zionism is a Cultural Cancer that is Destroying White Nations! By Making Destructive Behavior Socially Acceptable The Zionists have emasculated our nation by destroying our pride in America‘s Christian history. Without a commonly held memory a nation ceases to exist as a cohesive unit. The Zionists have labeled America‘s Christian Founding Fathers as ―racists‖ and ―white slavers‖ while at the same time suppressing the fact that the Zionists fi- nanced and participated in the Black slave trade. The Zionists have promoted multicultura lis m, celebrating every culture, no matter how backward and barbaric, except for White Western European culture. The Zionists have dri- ven our Christian heritage from the public square through the efforts of the ADL and the ACLU Lobby Groups. American children will grow up in a society wiped clean of any vestiges of the Bible, Christ or the Cross. However, the Menorah is still allowed in public displays and in the White House for Hannukah celebrations. The Zionists have torn our borders wide open, permitting, indeed cheering, the Third World immigrants who will soon replace the White Christian American majority. The Jacob Javits‘s and the Lautenbergs have designed legislation that will, in the not too distant future, eventually genocide the White Race of people. They have done all this while simultaneously supporting a Zionist-only State in the Middle East. The Zionists have pushed, created and profited from pornography and perverse entertainment. The Zionists make up 90% of all American pornog- raphers. The Hollywood they run has mainstreamed wife-swapping, common law marriages, fornication, homo- sexuality, lesbianism, transvestitism, pedophilia, drug and alcohol abuse and self-indulgence.

  • The Fantasy World of Postmodern Empire Johnstown, PA
    Freedom and Cognitive Dysregulation: The Fantasy World of Postmodern Empire Matthew Raphael Johnson Johnstown, PA Text of Remarks Presented at the Freedompalooza Festival Quakerstown, PA June 28-29 2019 The title of this essay comes from a May 2018 article by former Assistant Treasury Secretary Paul Craig Roberts. He is one of the most prescient writers on American political economy today. Like me, he's come to the conclusion that nothing the Average Educated American (AEA) believes is real. Media and academia, two of the most corrupt institutions in American life, have created a make believe world congenial to their interests but not very congenial to reality. This postmodern dystopia is historically unprecedented. The US is a tyrannical, imperialist oligarchy. Her economy is so irrationally managed that it is soon headed for total collapse and very possibly, many won't notice. This collapse, using coded language, false statistics and media blackouts, might not immediately be perceived. I use the term “Regime” as a synonym for “ruling class,” somewhat similar to the “System.” The Regime is an informal oligarchy based around elites in academia, journalism, government, military, multinational corporations, banks and a few politicians. They meet in informal organizations such as the Bilderberg or Bohemian Grove where few records are kept. Informal channels of power, called “soft power,” means more than formal ones. This festival has featured remarks from the Libertarian Party's candidate for governor. I'm not sure why. Libertarianism is the worst Postmodern cop-out imaginable. It refers to no standards. It has no ends other than some abstract “agency.” It's based on 17th century British Renaissance materialist metaphysics and seems to have no idea how power actually functions in this era.
