When I was growing up in the late '70s and '80s, one popular weekly sitcom on television was Diff'rent Strokes. It told the story of two orphaned Negro children from Harlem, who, upon the death of their mother, go to live with their mother's former boss, who is White, a widower and resides in upmarket Park Avenue, Manhattan. The black children, Willis and Arnold, just so happen to be boys and the widower, Phillip Drummond, just happens to have a young golden-haired daughter, Kimberley, around the same age as the elder brother. I do not think I need to spell out what the show's producers are up to here and the miscegenation angle is pushed in the episode 'Arnold's New Girlfriend', cynically cloaked in the guise of innocent affection between children. Certainly, this sitcom has now been played out many times in real life, with white bourgeois families adopting Negroes as a fashion statement for virtue signalling. It is such a family that gave Rachel Dolezal to the world.
I am going to start this article with two seemingly unrelated topics, but which, as you will see, form parts related to the title. The first is that I had chance to listen to some of the Savage Hippie podcasts in which Ann Sterzinger, whose talents have been featured in Mjolnir Magazine, participates. The show is run by Edwin Oslan, a Jew, also features David Cole Stein, a Jewish historian with a few minor revisionist views on the Holocaust™, and simultaneously denies and alleges being Alt Right in spite of its non-White elements. Oslan plays the usual dual role of claiming to be White and having no group preference while simultaneously claiming privileged status as a Jew and oy veying about muh Holocaust™, but it was Episode 12B that was most questionable. In it, Oslan suggested Whites should adopt black babies, a narrative that is also being pushed by other Jews like Ezra Levant of Rebel Media. The second is that this is the time of year when many have just celebrated the fact that a Judaic festival has usurped a European one.
A speech by the late great Rightist thinker Jonathan Bowden has been discovered and uploaded onto Youtube. The speech is from a rump BNP meeting in Leicester from 2008, back when that party was both growing and decaying under then-leader Nick Griffin. Bowden addresses postmodern economics and the banking system, and how this relates to the vast movements of the Massenmenschen as human capital that results in Whites becoming minorities in their homelands - especially as the city of Leicester itself at that time had already become majority non-White. He also tackles old versus new imperialism and how British colonialism benefitted Africa, as opposed to the pointlessness of neo-con invasions.
Never mind the bollocks, although it's very difficult where John Lydon is concerned. John Lydon, once styled Johnny Rotten, suddenly jumped onto the Brexit and Trump bandwagons and into the headlines a couple of weeks back, which caused a bit of a stir among the chatterers of society. Over the past forty years, Lydon has been groomed as a cultural ambassador by those in power, while playing the old game that he is somehow an anti-establishment rebel. The unfortunate thing is that many on the Alt Right - rather like what happened with Donald Trump - seem to have been taken in by him, so let us take a look at this new 'hero' and the cultural movement known as punk at large, which John Lydon as Johnny Rotten represented.
Every club has its rules and members of that club have to abide by those rules. The reason ought to be self-explanatory. If one were to join one of the last remaining gentlemen's clubs in Britain, one ought to be committed to upholding the rules that further the continuance of its existence. If the membership elect to allow women members, then it is no longer a gentlemen's club. The membership will have broken the rules and, in doing so, the club that was will have met its demise. Rules laid down are there for a reason. The rules define what the club's function is, and what the membership wish it to continue to be into the future.
In the fourth instalment of Erkenbrand's series on classical music, "A New Hope", the evil Galactic Empire has forced me to select four composers for Fausto, Wagenaar and Mr H to discuss. Rather than choose my favourites, I gave my picks based on themes that I thought were interesting for discussion. Subjects include the Barbary Slave Trade, Italian and English nationalism, Christian morality, the fetishism of Orientalism, civilization versus barbarity, and the synergy of contemporary film and music.
The introduction, as ever, is in Dutch and the rest in English.
This is the third instalment of Erkenbrand's series on classical music, in which Fausto selects four of his favourite composers for Mr H, Wagenaar and I to discuss - although we often drift off onto other subjects, particularly the merits or lack thereof of Christianity.
A quick note: @17:40, I actually meant the band The Beautiful South's predecessor, The Housemartins.
The one thing more than all others that I hate about the Left (and some National Socialists for that matter) is their total politicisation of all aspects of life. Marriage becomes politics; raising children becomes politics; religion or the lack thereof becomes politics; the human body becomes the body politic; and that most intimate moment between two people - sex itself - becomes politics. It thus gave me great pleasure to read of the death of one of the chief architects of the pink revolution, Gilbert Baker.
