HOW THE NEW RIGHT WILL SAVE THE WORLD
The Convergence of Catastrophes and how European Identitarians
can save Europe and the world from disaster.
The European New Right/ European Identitarian movement, and the
subsequent establishment of IMPERIUM EUROPA, is the only defense
we have against what Guillaume Faye and others have called a “convergence
of catastrophes”. Any one of these catastrophes on its own is enough
to bring down our scientific industrial global civilization. Have
no doubt that the aftermath of any of these pitfalls will be a brutal
world of tribal warfare, anarchic robber barons, squalid living
conditions, starvation and possible extinction.
While the mainstream parties, from Hang'Em High Tories to Trotskyite
transsexuals and Greens, continue to bury their heads in the sand
and ignore the problems caused by a rising population and diminishing
resources, the New Right is the only movement willing to face up
to the challenges before us, and by overcoming those challenges
with courage, reason and without cruelty, we will save far more
lives that would otherwise be lost in the chaos of disintegration.
Far more lives are currently threatened by the stupidity and short-sightedness
of liberal universalists, greedy capitalists and deluded multiculturalists
than will ever be put in jeopardy by the New Right.
By far the worst of these catastrophes, in my opinion, is relentless
environmental degradation: global warming, pollution and endocrine
disrupting chemicals, deforestation, the stripping of the seas etc..
Global warming is the threat most likely to trigger the collapse,
but a scenario with an unexpected environmental impact, perhaps
a mass extinction of a vitally important animal or plant, would
cause a similar result.
Only last week we watched David 'chameleon' Cameron FLYING to an
isolated Norwegian glacier to say a few words about global warming,
while Chancellor Brown FLEW to New York to give another speech about
climate change and how we should stop leaving our TVs on stand-by
overnight. The next day, after oil had passed the $75-per-barrel
barrier for the first time, Brown was on the box again demanding
increased production and more exploration for oil! How about some
joined-up thinking, Chancellor?
The second of these converging catastrophes is the inherent instability
of global free trade and the drive for profit at any expense, combined
with severe depletion of resources, Peak Oil and the US twin-deficit.
We are currently “enjoying” the longest-sustained period of economic
growth since Britain became an industrial nation (as Brown constantly
reminds us); but there are plenty of reasons for thinking that neo-liberal
Britain and the world will not survive another downturn in world
trade.
The third of these catastrophes is continuing mass migration from
the third world into Europe. With the growth of ethnic minority
communities, the potential for cultural misunderstanding, intolerance
and intra-communal violence also grows. The true nightmare of multiculturalism
would be exposed for all to see only after an economic collapse.
By that stage Europe, like Humpty Dumpty, may be impossible to put
together again so we must try our hardest to manage the transition
to sustainable development in as ordered and disciplined manner
as possible. Only a command economy directed by the IMPERIUM EUROPA
will have sufficient reach and power to impose necessary order.
These are the big three threats; environmental, economic, and demographic.
But something as trivial or left-field as the break-up of the EU,
or a terrorist incident, or bird flu or SARS, or OPEC deciding to
trade in Euros, could be enough to tip the world – and your life
– spiralling into the abyss.
Only the New Right has a vision and a programme bold enough to
avert these disasters, through its idea of an IMPERIUM EUROPA powerful
enough to re-assert political above economic control, where the
long-term interests of the whole nation Europa have replaced the
narrowly destructive motives of the current unrepresentative plutocratic
elite.
BEYOND EUROPE
Once the IMPERIUM and European autarky is established, the consequences
of Europe pulling-out of world free trade will be dramatic. All
other continents and regions would be forced to confront their continuing
slavish acceptance of the Zionist Atlanticist New World Order. The
challenge to complacency and consumer capitalist stagnation can
only be to the benefit of the populations of those regions. Environmental
concerns and sustainable development, previously crowded out by
neo-liberalisms single-minded pursuit of profit, will once again
occupy a pivotal status.
BETRAYAL
I can't imagine a worse betrayal than to allow for decades mass
immigration from countries and civilizations completely incompatible
with our own, and then to start unprovoked and unjustified wars
with those very same countries and civilizations.
I can't think of a better way of deliberately sowing discord; locally,
nationally and across the whole planet. I can't think of a better
way of spreading distrust, violence and hatred. I can't think of
an experiment that is more likely to degenerate into savage blood-letting
than multiculturalism.
Can you?
FOR THOSE THAT ALREADY KNOW
Lady Renouf made an important point at the New Right meeting in
London in April – one that I don't think has been emphasized enough.
The raising of awareness in our folk, and the subsequent radical
transformation which I believe we all hope to see, can be achieved
peacefully, without bloodshed.
It is our enemies who wish to destroy Europe with their policy
of mass immigration and ethnic Balkanizaton, promising a future
of endless tribal war.
By staying aware and speaking the truth, we are the only people
to offer a viable alternative to the nightmare of a continent faced
with dramatic environmental change and limited resources spiraling
into a savage bloodbath, with different religions and races at each
other's throats.
We should be proud that our solutions are rational and embedded
deep within the European psyche. Our enemies like to portray us
as unthinking violent thugs, but we can show that the implementation
of New Right ideas across Europe – the establishment of an Imperium
– will save lives, unlike the
abysmal prospect offered by multiculturalists.

Race and Consciousness
Our consciousness is mediated by our race and culture, just as white
light changed into colour by going through a prism. The light is
still light, but it has undergone a literally indescribable transformation
(remember, our experience of colour is a uniquely subjective experience,
despite understanding in theory about wavelength and even quantum
mechanics).
Aryan metaphysics is non-dualist, everything is consciousness,
yet that consciousness is rarely encountered by us in its pure white
form – the light before it enters the prism. Maybe some have encountered
it; Meister Eckhart, Theresa of Avila, Wordsworth and Shelley. Instead,
what we see in and around us is consciousness coloured by a myriad
different factors: generation of birth, sex, class, race, religion,
and of course most dramatically of all by species...or mode of existence
for inanimate objects.

Hans Bluher and the Wandervogel
Text of HANS BLUHER AND THE WANDERVOGEL talk from sixth New Right
meeting in London, February 2006.
Good afternoon comrades,
This afternoon I will be talking about the neglected figure of
Hans Bluher, a little about his life, the intellectual tradition
from whence he came, how he revolutionized that tradition, and finally
a little on his influence and potential influence.
Hans Bluher championed the cultural significance of homosexuality
and the Mannerbund. He won a widespread following, first with readers
of Adolf Brand’s DER EIGENE and the nascent German youth movement,
notably the Wandervogel, then later with the State.
Bluher was born in Freiburg in Schlesien in 1888. His birthday
was yesterday, 17 February, when he would have been 118 years old.
In 1912 he was the first man to write a history of the Wandervogel
– the contemporary German youth movement. His history was published
as a series of three pamphlets, the third of which was called DIE
DEUTSCHE WANDERVOGELBEWEGUNG ALS EROTISCHES PHANOMEN. In 1913 he
set up the Jung Wandervogel with Wilhelm Jansen, which, unlike most
of the rest of the Wandervogel, was male-only. In 1917 he wrote
the first volume of his most important book, outlining his masculinist
theory in DIE ROLLE DER EROTIK IN DER MANNLICHEN GESELLSCHAFT: Eine
Theorie der Menschlichen Staatsbildung, followed two years later
with the second volume. As Bluher said at the time, “Before this
book the idea of basing man's existence in the State on Eros has
never been coherently pursued”. During the Nazi period he was subject
to a Schreibverbot, and died peacefully in Berlin in 1955.
Bluher is generally though of as within the masculinist, or men's
movement tradition of thought, but in fact he represents a major
break, or development. In Germany at the turn of the last century,
there were three main groupings within the men's movement:
Firstly, the intellectual tradition derived from Otto Weininger
and the teaching tradition from Dr. Gustav Wyneken, which Bluher
was to revolutionize.
Second, the Gemeinschaft der Eigenen (Community of the Self-Owners/
Special) founded officially by Adolf Brand in 1902 and which published
its own magazine, Der Eigene, from 1899-1931. Brand and Der Eigene
championed the anarchism of Max Stirner, as well as Bluher's theories
about the decisive role of the Mannerbund – ancient warrior-band
– in the creation of the State. Of course, no-one ever argued that
these Mannerbund were exclusively homosexual, simply that homosexuality
was not the moral issue it was to become with the arrival of Judeo-Christianity.
Wilhelm Jansen, who co-founded the Gemeinschaft with Brand, was
introduced to the Wandervogel by Bluher, where he later became an
important leader.
The third part of the men's movement was grouped around the romantic
poet Stefan George's Cosmic Circle in the Schwabing suburb of Munich,
and included such figures as Ludwig Klages and Alfred Schuler. They
idealized the Emperor Hadrian's lover Antinous and took their view
of history from Johann Jakob Bachofen's Mutterrecht, espousing a
prehistoric, matriarchal society. The Cosmic Circle was to have
an international impact via D.H. Lawrence.
In the men's movement intellectual tradition, Otto Weininger was
the first of these masculinists, whose influential book GESLECHT
UND CHARACTER (SEX AND CHARACTER) was written as a reaction against
Bachofen’s DAS MUTTERRECHT. Bachofen, like anthropologist Marija
Gimbutas more recently, had proposed an original matriarchal pre-historic
culture in Europe. Instead, Weininger ascribed gender characteristics
from Absolute Manhood to Absolute Womanhood to different nations.
Weininger also suggested a complimentary/ supplementary theory of
desire which ultimately derived from Plato; he develops the idea
of an algebra of sexual attraction. Weininger killed himself in
Beethoven's house the same year that his book was published, in
1903, while his book gained in notoriety. Ford Maddox Ford remembers
SEX AND CHARACTER as one of the most sensational books of the early
Twentieth Century, which was still being discussed under hushed
breaths in the polite salons of European capitals three years after
publication. It was studied by Dietrich Eckart, ended up on Hitler's
bookshelves, and Julius Evola provided an introduction to the 1956
Italian edition. A rather unusual audience for a Viennese Jew! SEX
AND CHARACTER provoked Evola to write his own METAPHYSICS OF SEX
two years later. Weininger’s views can be summed up in his following
quote, “for true sexual union it is necessary that there come together
a complete male and a complete female”.
Heinrich Schurtz, author of the best-seller ALTERKLASSEN UND
MANNERBUNDE (1902) was a major contributor to the men's movement.
In this comparative cultural study Schurtz expounded his theory
of the dual primary impulses in man, the sexual and the social drive.
Weininger was followed by Benedict Friedlaender, whose most important
book DIE RENAISSANCE DES EROS URANIOS (1904) condemned Plato for
the separate categorizations of homosexual and heterosexual, as
well as the “erotic monopoly of women and the priesthood”. Friedlaender
represents the last, failed attempt to reconcile patriarchy and
the bourgeois family with homo or bi-sexuality, as in the Hellenic
ideal.
Bluher’s significant break with previous Masculinists and sexologists
was on two major fronts, partly as a result of the men's movement's
encounter with Freud, and partly a result of his re-interpretations
of Heinrich Schurtz. Bluher unsurprisingly was highly critical of
Freud, with whom he corresponded, and declared in answer to Freud’s
theory of repression that, “The repression of sexuality does not
result from culture, but the reverse, culture results from the repression
of sexuality. To be human and to have culture are identical.” According
to Andrew Hewitt’s POLITICAL INVERSIONS, it was this encounter with
Freud, and not Bluher’s on-going involvement with political philosophy,
that proved decisive.
Hans Bluher abandoned theories of sexuality based on either biology,
or on complimentary or supplementry mathematics grounded in the
male-female duality. Instead, Bluher went back to basics and insisted
on a single unified consciousness as being the source of sexuality.
For Bluher, it is sexuality – the putative biological origin –
that is an abstraction, and eros – the cultural facts of desire
– that proves the sole concrete ground for analysis. Of course,
this approach disarms the objection that homosexuality is “against
nature.” To quote Bluher:
“It is not something that needs to be explained, but rather something
that – as eros – makes explanation and meaning possible.”
“Eros is a meaningful and meaning-constitutive phenomenon that can
be reduced neither to mere symptom, nor to biology.”
“Whenever sexuality makes itself noticed in man it has already been
taken up into the workings of eros and thereby acquired a meaning.”
“Sexuality creates (indeed must create) two fully developed, originary
and indestructible types of man; one desires men, the other, women.”
“Eros is the philosophy of the particular.”
This assertion of the supremacy of culture stresses the first major
gap that had opened up between Bluher and previous Masculinists,
and at the same time, brings Bluher into line with modern European
New Right thinking, especially with the philosophical anthropologist
Arnold Gehlen’s notion of the individual as being bio-cultural,
an inseparable mix of race and culture. Bluher rejected previous
biological theories from liberals like Karl Ulrichs, and Magnus
Hirschfeld's Scientific Humanitarian Committee as well as Masculinists
like Weininger and Friedlander
Hans Bluher versus Fred Flintstone
Bluher’s second break with previous sexologists and political philosophers
was his privileging of the Mannerbund: by undermining the accepted
male/ female polarity he destroyed the foundations of the liberal
state, wedded as it was (and is) to domestic bourgeois respectability.
For convenience, I like to refer to the liberal view of history
and evolution, where the rational liberal individual springs fully-formed
as if from thin air as the “Fred Flintstone” argument.
According to social contract theory, and Hanna-Barbera cartoons,
individuals in the original State of Nature are rational, autonomous
and self-interested. So Fred decides to form a Social Contract with
his equally rational neighbours, including Barney Rubble. [The analogy
isn't quite exact, in that Fred is a worker in a quarry rather than
as an agrarian worker-owner, but Fred still lives in a market society
much like our own.] It is this grotesque cartoon figure from the
fetid imaginations of Jean-Jaques Rousseau, John Locke and Adam
Smith that has been the target of successful pot-shots by anti-liberals
from Charles Maurras to the New Right, but only Hans Bluher has
the audacity and logic to target both Fred AND Wilma.
Bluher rejected this notion that Aryan culture was created spontaneously
by domestic individuals and nuclear families like Fred and Wilma,
Betty and Barney or Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm. Instead he advanced the
idea of the Mannerbund – the warrior band – as the principle catalyst
for the formation of societal structure and the State. Further,
Bluher declared that the State was an expression of “Objective Will”.
As he said, “The State is not simply the the social construction
placed on nature, but rather the political phenomenon which itself
defines a specifically human nature.”
However, he did accept that other, non-Aryan civilizations, notably
the Semitic, may have originated from the domestic nuclear family,
and have been stamped accordingly. Julius Evola was to take this
idea and run with it.
For proof of his argument, Bluher cited Sparta, the sacred Seven
Hundred of Thebes and chivalric knights, squires and Templars, whose
echo across the centuries can be heard in Wagner's PARSIFAL. Since
his time, and especially since WW2, research and information about
the Mannerbund has expanded considerably. In 1934 Otto Hofler (Hoefler)
published KULTISCHE GEHEIMBUNDE DER GERMANEN (Frankfurt/ Main 1934)
about the Herulians and Wotan's warrior-bands, then after the War
Indo-Europeanist scholars such as Georges Dumezil with his three-function-theory,
Jan de Vries and Alain Danielou lifted Indo-European studies to
still greater heights. More recently French historian Bernard Sergent
with his books HOMOSEXUALITE INITIATIQUE DANS L'EUROPE ANCIENNE
and HOMOSEXUALITY IN GREEK MYTH, Alby Stone, Kris Kershaw, Steve
Pollington, and Connell O’Donovan have all shed light on the significance
of the Mannerbund. I’ve written about this separately in my Mannerbund
essays, save to say the evidence for the Mannerbund origins of Aryan
culture is increasingly overwhelming, and makes sense logically.
Bluher emphasized the Mannerheld – the male hero who holds the band
together, a leader who in Max Weber's categorization exercises charismatic
authority, and is represented as an archetype in such semi-divine
figures as Hercules, “Through the force of his attraction, which
he exerts on young and old among his warriors, he can obtain the
greatest sacrifices, the most tremendous efforts, and the most splendid
successes.”
Influence on Wandervogel
The first modern youth movements started before 1896 as entirely
autonomous from adults, necessarily so because they were largely
motivated as a reaction against the gross materialism of the Kaiserreich.
Groups of youngsters would meet up at each others' houses before
taking hikes into the woods or mountains, to discuss how to make
Germany and Europe a better place. Only later did adults like Hans
Bluher in Germany or Baden-Powell in England become involved.
The Wandervogel name, which was adopted collectively from 1896,
is most likely taken from Book 17 of Walt Whitman’s LEAVES OF GRASS,
titled “Birds of Passage”. This was not Whitman's only contribution
to German thought at the time; Adolf Brand's men's movement was
called “Gemeinschaft der Eigenen” - the Community of Self-Owners
– which although taken from the philosophy of Max Stirner, has a
distinctly Whitmanesque resonance. Bluher himself refers to the
Wandervogel as a “confederation of friendship” - a direct quote
from Whitman .
Bluher introduced Adolf Brand's colleague Wilhem Janssen (1866-1943)
to the Wandervogel at the turn of the last century, and in 1910
they together formed Jung Wandervogel, which unlike most of the
rest of the Wandervogel never admitted girls as members.
Carl Jung gave a vivid account of the early Wandervogel in his
famous 1936 essay Wotan. Jung argued that each race had its own
collective unconscious and archetypes, and for the Teutons Wotan
was in charge: “We have seen Wotan come to life in the Jungendbewegung
(youth movement), and the blood of several sheep was shed in the
sacrifices which celebrated the very dawn of his rebirth. Armed
with Rucksack and lute, blond youths, and sometimes also girls,
were to be seen as restless wanderers on every road from the North
Cape to Sicily, true servants of the roving god...The German youths
who celebrated the solstice were not the first to hear a rustle
in the primeval forest of the unconscious. They were anticipated
by Nietzsche, Shuler, Stefan George, and Klages. The literary tradition
of the Rhine and the country south of the Main has a classical form
that cannot be easily shaken off. Every interpretation that comes
from that region, therefore, is inclined to return to a classic
model, to antique intoxication and exuberance, i.e. to Dionysus,
the peur aeternus and the cosmogonic eros.” [NB: On the Cosmogonic
Eros . Ludwig Klages 1922].
The most important event in the history of the Wandervogel was
11 October 1913 when the Jungendbewegung Free German Youth Movement
was summoned to a mass-meeting on the Meissner Heights outside Kassel.
A manifesto was issued, which stated in part, ”German Youth no longer
intended to remain a dependency of the older generation, excluded
from public life and relegated to a passive role. It seeks, independently
of the commands of convention, to give shape and form to its own
life. It strives after a lifestyle, corresponding to its youth,
which will make it possible to take itself and its activities seriously
and to integrate itself as a special factor in the general work
of culture.” Ludwig Klages from the Cosmic Circle composed “Mensch
und Erde” (Man and Earth) for the occasion, while others sang from
Hans Breuer's youth movement songbook published the same year. What
was called the “Meissner Formula” strove “to shape life through
self-responsibility and wholehearted sincerity”.
After World War One the Wandervogel lost little of it's early idealism,
but its cohesiveness was tested. [St. Ch.] Waldecke wrote in Der
Eigene in 1925 that it had now condensed into 4 distinct streams,
comprising of:
1. Free German, often Anarchist. It was this bunch that descended
directly from the Meissner Heights meeting in 1913, and these were
the most direct inheritors of the initial Wandervogel inspiration.
This group was bolstered by an influx from Dr. Gustav Wyneken's
Free School Communities. This branch of the Wandervogel was closely
associated with Der Weisse Ritter house in Berlin, from 1921 publisher
of The White Knight newspaper for the youth movement.
2. Proletarian-identified leftist movements, whether Anarchist,
Marxist or later Stalinist, with the emphasis on class war rather
than learning.
3. Christian youth movements that were more Catholic and Protestant
youth social work groups than youth movements. These Christian missions
were the last to be absorbed into the Hitler Youth.
4. Der Jungdeutsche Orden or Jungdo. The Young German Order was
founded by Artur Mahraun at around the same time as the Kapp Putsch
in May 1920. It appealed to younger elements on the right and promised
to revive the pre-War Wandervogel spirit. Based in Kassel, it had
expanded to 70,000 when it was banned in early 1921 whereupon it
expanded to almost a third-of-a-million (300,000). It's fate, as
with most of the other groups, was to be assimilated into the Hitler
Youth.
Influence on State
Apart from individuals from the Wandervogel and groups such as Jungdo,
the Young German Order becoming involved in nationalist politics,
the movement was absorbed almost in its entirety into the Hitler
Youth after 1933. Journalist Ludwig Lewisohn of the left-wing American
publication NATION wrote in 1933 that the Wandervogel was “the youth
movement from which thousands of storm-troopers came...The entire
movement is in fact and by certain aspects of its avowed ideology
drenched through with homoerotic feeling and practice”.
Alfred Baumler of the Institut fur Pedagogik at the University of
Berlin from 1933 initiated some of Bluher and Wyneken's teaching
techniques, and at the same time was won over from Bachofen's Mutterrecht
to Bluher's Mannerbund hypothesis. After World War Two, Bluher's
main theories of Eros and the Mannerbund were decisively rejected
in favour of Magnus Hirschfeld's bizarre notions of intermediate
sexes and minority rights.
Influence on Julius Evola
For Evola's theories of desire, Otto Weininger's complimentary mathematics
is the obvious direct inspiration for the METAPHYSICS OF SEX, and
not Bluher's idea of Eros creating meaning. For Evola, as for Carl
Jung, the meaning of sex is the spiritual Hieros Gamos – the sacred
marriage within the psyche. But in other books, notably REVOLT AGAINST
THE MODERN WORLD and MEN AMONGST THE RUINS, Evola was happy to accept
the broad outline of Bluher’s Mannerbund hypothesis, and indeed
elaborates upon it.
Influence on Yockey
When American activist Francis Parker Yockey was arrested by the
FBI in 1960 he was carrying a copy of Weininger's SEX AND CHARACTER
in his suitcase. Yockey was such an admirer of Bluher that ten years
earlier, in March 1950, he had translated the entire second volume
of THE ROLE OF THE EROTIC IN MALE SOCIETIES. No copies remain, although
the FBI did get their hands on one in 1952, but his partner of the
time, Elsa Dewette, was able to record a few choice snippets:
“The LEAGUE is the proselyte for that way if life that the GREEKS
called ETHOS. This word has something to do with the MAN. It gives
notice that the man has already pledged his best to the man. Our
most essential, super-abundant, purest, and as they say, most selfless
performances are, in one way or another, born in the light of a
superior man who gave the stimulus to them. Whoever is in the League
cannot sink: All are sustained by this utter certainty.
Women strive constantly, WHOLLY to possess a man. That trap-door
to oblivion which lies hidden in a well-guarded secret place in
her being, demands a sacrifice: In this way, most men go to ruin
through their wives.”
According to Dewette, Yockey then commented “I have always said
this. My phrase was and remains: Nearly all women bring out the
worst in men: the economical and the social.”
Bluher for the Future
Amongst Indo-European scholars, the Mannerbund is now a familiar
landmark on the scene, but now is the time for the Mannerbund to
emerge from the pages of history and become a vital political force
once again. The so-called gay community will be first in the firing
line in the coming war between Aryan ideals and those of the monotheists.
Unfortunately, they have been especially weakened by cultural Marxism
and multiculturalism over the past thirty years; they were targeted
for propaganda earlier than the general population (I remember political
correctness firmly established throughout the gay community by the
very early 1980s), and since then the propaganda from the gay press,
academia etc. has been overwhelming and relentless.
I also reckon there are lessons from Jung's Wotan essay. Here's
another quote about Wotan, the Germanic god of battle and poetry,
“Later, toward the end of the Weimar Republic, the wandering role
was taken over by thousands and thousands of unemployed who were
to be met everywhere on their aimless journeys. By 1933 the people
no longer wandered, they marched in their hundreds of thousands.
The Hitler movement brought the whole of Germany to its feet, from
the five-year-olds to the veterans, and produced the spectacle of
a great migration of people marking time. Wotan the wanderer was
awake.”
French Post-modernist Paul Virilio has called this process “Dromology”
and considered it vital to the success of the French Revolution,
as well as the 1933 German Revolution. I believe our European civilization,
which has been stupefied for sixty years, is about to march along
that road again, and vital to those young marchers will be the organizational
flair and heroic inspiration of the Mannerbund.

Aryan Futurism: The Vision
This is the text of my ARYAN FUTURISM speech, delivered to the
New Right meeting in central London on 28 May 2005.
Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen. It’s a great, hot, sunny afternoon,
which means it’s clear, and when it’s clear we can see further.
So I want to see how far we can see. First I’ll talk about where
we could be, what it will look like, why Aryan, why Futurist, and
why Imperium - and then I’ll discuss how we could get there: how
to re-align folk away from the current corrosive human rights agenda
and towards European nationalism and growth.
First – a journey to the absolute elsewhere. Imagine you’re flying
high above the Eurasian continent – maybe in a spacecraft. Below,
you see primeval forest, as our ancestors knew it, with bears, wolves
and the lustrous beauty of Mother Nature restored. Every so often
you catch sight one of the crystalline structures, perhaps kilometres
high, which stud the verdant landscape from Galway Bay to the Kamchatka
peninsular.
These crystalline structures are Arologies, originally imagined
by Italian architect Paulo Soleri way back in the 1960s. They are
cities, like the future-metropolis in Logan’s Run, or Arthur C.
Clarke’s CITY AND THE STARS. Arcologies are completely self-sufficient
and ecologically sound. They generate their own power using nuclear
fission or, ideally, fusion. Healthy food is produced in plankton
and algae factories, while genetically engineered protein means
we no longer have to kill sentient animals for food, and we can
eat meat with a clear conscience. Arcologies are connected to one
another via trans-continental tunnels and air and space ports, and
built in such a way that in the event of a planetary catastrophe
they can leave Earth and survive in deep space.
Anyone who has not volunteered to perform duties for the State
is allowed to leave and return to the Arcology at any stage. They
can only take with them whatever food, clothing and weapons they
can carry, then find a pleasant spot to build a log cabin, and live
the life of a trapper. I imagine that the valleys closer to the
Arcology would be more populous than those further away, and that
a sort of frontier justice would prevail, something like the environment
described in William Burroughs PLACE OF DEAD ROADS. Beyond this
hinterland would extend the real wilderness. Our Germanic ancestors
had a strong belief in the power of “Utgard” – “the area outside”
– the area uninhabited by Gods or men, as opposed to “Midgard” –
“Middle Earth” – the civilized world of Gods, men and order. Utgard
is where Gods and men face their greatest battles. This “Utgard”
is a testing ground for youths from the Arcology, to prove themselves
in initiation ceremonies, rituals, drinking bouts, man-hunts and
survival skills in the wilderness. Traditional societies have no
trouble in channeling youthful boisterousness; Nu Labor hasn’t got
a clue and calls them “teenage yobbos”.
Inside the Arcologies, the order and authority of the Imperium
prevails. Traditionalist thinkers have given less thought to technological
automation than to other, perhaps more pressing matters, but 2 who
have are Alexander Raven Thomson and Oswald Mosley, both of the
British Union of Fascists. I think in some ways the BUF can act
as a more inspiring model than the interwar continental systems,
as the liberalism and Humpty Dumpty economics of 30’s British Empire
is not so dissimilar to the problems all Europeans face now, whereas
Italy and Germany faced specific challenges particular to their
time. Thomson was the BUF corporate state theorist, one of whose
ideas was motorways, and who won almost 25% of the vote in Bethnal
Green in 1937. In his book Civilisation as Divine Superman (1932)
Thomson wrote, “civilisation could avoid decay if it adopted as
its model the communal organisation of Maeterlinck’s insect communities,
‘super-organisms’ in which individual differentiation took place
within a “communal spirit shared by every member of the hive”.
Mosley himself believed the solution to the challenge of automation
was the “wage-price mechanism” and autarky, or, as he put it, “the
insulated self-contained area freed from the world cost system”.
Economics is from Ancient Greek and simply means “household management”:
at its most basic it means being able to provide the material life-support
for a society – such things as food, warmth, shelter, and (I would
argue) access to communications technology. I believe production
of material goods should be limited, and rationed by the State exercising
a Command Economy. The economy operates on the level of society,
not culture. I don’t think economics is as important as politics,
and nothing for serious-minded men to fall out over. There are lots
of reasons why I personally believe a planned economy is superior
to a free-market economy, but here are the main 3:
1. A command economy is the most efficient way of providing a population
with the basic essentials for living. Economies of scale, standardization
and above all automation would free vast numbers of workers from
the meaningless toil of financial and other service industries,
to pursue full-time their own individual interests, joining sports
clubs, studying, or just drinking and smoking and hanging out with
friends. Of course, if a person wants to do something worthwhile,
then they can volunteer for State service in a field to which they
are suited.
The Neolithic agricultural revolution greatly increased our power
over nature, but at the cost of a life of drudgery in the fields
for millions of peasants, trapped under the limited horizons of
Bronze Age technology. Anthropologists estimate that hunter-gatherers
of the stone age only spent about an hour a day working for their
survival: the rest was play and contemplation. The industrial revolution
increased our ability to manipulate our environment even further,
thereby eliminating agricultural labour and, currently, manufacturing
labour.
We’ve already had the technology to make this automated utopia
a reality for a few decades; what’s stopping us from advancing is
consumer capitalism, which is above all a psychological control
system. It is propped up by advertising and mass-media to keep everyone’s
snouts in the trough. As Buddha (a great Aryan) discovered, the
cause of suffering is desire, and desire for more and more material
goods (i.e. consumer capitalism) causes more and more suffering
and is unsustainable, which leads to my second reason for supporting
a command economy:
My second argument is that as limited resources dwindle, we have
the option of either rationing, which would lead to the introduction
of a planned economy, or leaving the free market as it is. Leaving
things as they are would mean only the very richest, most treacherous
plutocrats would survive, and they are the very same gangsters (the
Windsors, the Bushes etc.) who collaborated the most in destroying
Aryan civilization.
Thirdly, command economies seem to be the best at providing military
security and guaranteeing technological advance. Britain was forced
to adopt a planned economy during WW1 and WW2 to ensure survival.
Germany pre-1945 was the most technologically advanced country in
the world, the Soviet Union was the first space power and the Americans
only got a man to the moon thanks to the state-supported military-industrial
complex and Werner von Braun.
To sum up automation in the words of Ernst Junger in Der Arbeiter
(1932) “Beyond the democracy of labour, in which the contents of
the familiar world will be remoulded and reworked, the outlines
can be made out of forms of State which are not comparable to anything
that has so far existed. However, what can be predicted is that
neither work nor labour will exist in any sense that we have known.
The discovery of work as a constituent of abundance and freedom
still lies before us…The true contest is for the discovery of a
new and unknown world – a discovery more destructive and pregnant
with consequences than the discovery of America. It is only with
awe that we can look on as man strives to sharpen weapons and hearts
in the midst of chaotic upheavals, and see how prepared he is to
renounce any simple way out which leads to mere happiness.
To participate in this process and to serve its cause: this is the
task with which we are charged.”
We’ve had a glimpse into the future – now I’d like to talk about
why Aryan, and why an Imperium.
Only a radical Imperium based on traditional Aryan concepts of
synthesis can do justice to the European Faustean spirit. To quote
Guillaume Faye, “The old European tradition was always modernist…We
don’t stupidly revolt against contemporary Europe, but remain loyal
to that which has always been part of Europe”. He is right: the
dead hand of 18th century liberalism, which was superseded by continental
European political and philosophical thinkers over 2 centuries ago,
still clenches the world ever-tighter in its rigor mortis grip.
In MAN AND TECHNICS Spengler wrote, “Now [man] meant not merely
to plunder [nature] of her materials, but to enslave and harness
her very forces so as to multiply his own strength. This monstrous
and unparalleled idea is as old as the Faustean Culture itself.
Already in the tenth century we meet with technical constructions
of a wholly new sort. Already the steam engine, the steamship, and
the air machine are in the thoughts of Roger Bacon and Albertus
Magnus. And many a monk busied himself in his cell with the idea
of Perpetual Motion.
This last idea never thereafter let go its hold on us, for success
would mean the final victory over “God or Nature”, a small world
of one’s own creation moving like the great world, by virtue of
its own forces and obeying the hand of man alone. To build a world
oneself, to be oneself God – that is the Faustian inventor’s dream,
and from it has sprung all our designing and re-designing of machines
to approximate as nearly as possible the unattainable limit of perpetual
motion.”
English philosopher Francis Bacon eloquently expresses the necessary
violence of the Faustian spirit in his FABLE OF PROTEUS – which
is all about struggle:
“If any skilful minister of nature shall apply force to nature,
and by design torture and vex it in order to its annihilation, it
on the contrary, being brought to this necessity, changes and transforms
itself into a strange variety of shapes and appearances; for nothing
but the power of the Creator can annihilate it or truly destroy
it… And that method of torturing or detaining will prove the most
effective and expeditious which makes use of manacles and fetters,
i.e lays hold and works upon matter in the extremist degree”.
These words remind me of the CERN particle accelerator in Switzerland
with its huge magnetic forces.
According to the Perennial Tradition, we are consciousness fallen
into matter. Aryan civilizations’ creation of technology, Descarte’s
“quantifying reductionism” and scientific materialism is a further
involution, or sinking, into matter. Our consciousness delves deeper
into the Matrix of matter, but I believe this to be Western civilization’s
destiny and also our escape. Tradition also tells us that the switch
from the dark age, the Kali Yuga, to the Golden Age, the Krita Yuga,
is instantaneous. My own guess is that it could be realized with
Faster-than-Light travel through the light-barrier, culminating
in something like the light-show at the end of Kubrik’s 2001, or
the sphere in Event Horizon. W.H. Muller’s 1995 book Polaria explores
the esoteric and spiritual side of FTL travel. Of course it may
be some other, at present unimaginable, transgression of technology,
or spiritual discipline, that facilitates the next stage of our
evolution. But when we do this, we can be sure we become something
beyond human. An effect of FTL travel is that the traveller exists
in all places at all times, which is one of the definitions of a
God.
In the famous words of Nietzsche, "Man is a rope, tied between
beast and overman--a rope over an abyss...
What is great in man is that he is a bridge and not an end: what
can be loved in man is that he is an overture and a going under...”
Now for the political structure…why an Imperium
Politics is about the direction we want our civilization to grow,
and the structures necessary to ensure that growth. For that, I
think it’s best to read Indo-Europeanists such as Mircea Eliade,
Carl Jung, Alain Danielou and Georges Dumezil who have studied archetypal
recurring patterns of Aryan power and Jean Markele who emphasises
the importance of synthesis and movement in the Ancient Celtic worldview,
similar to Heraclitus.
Aryan Imperium must be a synthesis of that ultimate political polarity
– a stable, authoritarian Imperium (represented by Ice) v freedom,
creative imagination and the Italian Futurist Marinetti’s idea of
speed (all of which can all be characterized as Fire). It needs
to be a resolution between settler v nomads, mountain men v mariners.
To translate into mythological terms it’s the combination of Muspellheim
v Nifleheim which leads to the creation of Ymir, father of Gods
and Giants.
Integral to any Aryan Imperium worthy of the name is the Tripartite
structure. Alby Stone, another Indo-Europeanist, best describes
this trifunctional society as analogous to the human body, the different
qualities represented by head, arms and torso.
My own suggestion is this: Emperor rules, in consultation with
a Round Table of 12 advisors (like the 12 Olympian Gods or the 12
high Gods of Asgard). All posts are elected and, once elected, last
for life. Election is open to all Aryans who have completed a voluntary,
time-unspecified service of duty to the State (e.g. in the Armed
Forces or hospitals). There’s more about a future volunteerist state
in Robert Heinlein’s STARSHIP TROOPERS.
Another useful political concept, current in the European Union
but originally developed by the Catholic Church Is Subsidiarity.
The tenet holds that nothing should be done by a larger and more
complex organization which can be done as well by a smaller and
simpler organisation.
The Imperium has as its primary directive the evolution and progress
of Aryan mankind, both as an individual and as a species. The Empire
collectively is committed to scientific and technical innovation;
evolution of the Overman, and guarantees to provide and maintain
all platforms necessary for its development: unlimited resources
for scientific research and freedom of speech, education and access
to participate encouraged for all Aryans.
You can have an authoritarian State which exhorts free speech;
the two are not incompatible. The Kaiserreich is good example. Bismark
maintained the noble German tradition of Gedankenfreiheit by letting
newspapers publish whatever they wanted and the State could only
act retrospectively by suing in the courts.
I think that all Aryans in the Imperium will be freer than ever
before, more free possibly than we can imagine. The whole objective
of the Imperium is to liberate the creative imagination of each
individual, thereby adding their own unique contribution to the
ever-expanding empire. Industrial automation is the technological
foundation for this ultimate state of freedom.
The principal and defining social relationship of the Imperium
is the comrade. Men and women are encouraged to treat each other
as brother and sister, homosexuality would be no more remarkable
than it was in pagan Europe. We need a re-balancing of the interests
of the nation and race against those of the nuclear family. I believe
Heinrich Schurtz, author of Alterklassen und Mannerbunde is right,
“Schurtz emphasised that the social impulse, the drive to create
communities and political institutions, was reserved only to the
male. The ‘instinctive sympathy’ between men was the precondition
for social life”. Julius Evola, Adolf Brand and Hans Bluher all
developed ideas about how the domestic, feminine, comfortable, later
bourgeois nuclear family is antithetical to Aryan achievement. For
the meantime, all of Europe faces de-population, and replacement
by non-Aryans. I’ve read about towns in Germany that have managed
to reverse the trend by giving tax-breaks and other encouragements
to larger families. Abortion-on-demand of white babies must be outlawed
across the continent. The so-called “pensions crisis” is yet another
lie designed to keep the public cowered while the Establishment
promotes third world immigration. It is easily solved with automation
and a planned economy.
A word about language Proto-Indo-European, which scholars have
been researching for 150 years now, is the ideal future Lingua Franca,
with national languages taught in schools as second languages. Nearly
all modern languages in Europe evolved from Indo-European, so not
only would we learn the roots and thought processes involved in
our own language, but we’d also be learning it for all European
languages, making them easier to speak.
Territorial Extent
Eurasia
I imagine an Aryan Imperium stretching from Reykjavik to Vladivostok,
including the whole of the European continent, Russia and Siberia.
In particular, Aryan Futurists recognize the brutality of Hitlerism
against our Slav brothers, and the continual undermining of the
Slavic folk by the Western plutocracies and alien infiltration.
There are 3 reasons why I feel especially optimistic about Russia
and eastern Europe. Firstly, the region has a history of Aryan spirituality
and culture going back millennia. Secondly, the region has the greatest
concentration anywhere of undiluted Aryans. Thirdly, recent political
developments, such as the increasing popularity of Eurasianism and
National Bolshevism demonstrate burgeoning biocultural, racial and
cultural awareness. Russia must be allowed to take the leading role
as a nation in building the Imperium, if she so desires.
From north to south, we can imagine an Aryan homeland extending
southward from the North Pole to around 34-36 degrees latitude.
That would include Gibraltar, Malta, Crete and Cyprus, but exclude
Jerusalem and the Middle East. (I believe this particular exclusion
is vital, but others may disagree). The only salient non-Aryan civilizations
that extend a little north of this latitude are the Oriental civilizations
of China, Korea and Japan. Oriental civilization has a separate
destiny from that of the West, we are on different roads, so we
should secure their borders with the Imperium amicably, and leave
them to their own fate.
Arctic Citadel
To avoid any lingering petty nationalist quarrels, a new capital
city can be built in geodesic orbit above the North Pole. Hyperborean
Aryans have a prior historic claim to the North Pole (Thule), demonstrated
by Carl Jung and Mircea Eliade.
Space above the Polar Axis to be reserved for a 4-square castellated
crystal space city, as envisaged in Aryan mythology from Arianrhod’s
Fort in Celtic folklore to Mount Meru in Hinduism.
“If you build it, they will come”. You may recognize this quote
from Field of Dreams. What I mean by it - is that a civilization
needs a goal, a destination to mobilize around in order to demonstrate
it’s true greatness. For the Romans it was Pax Augustus and the
Golden Age celebrated by Virgil, for the Ancient Egyptians the building
of the pyramids, and for the Germans a 1,000 year empire. Goethe
tells us that great events cast their shadow before them, and I
believe the Aryan mythos, which locates the gods of Asgard at the
North Pole, is the shadow of that great event that still lies before
us. That event is the transformation of Man into God.
Ringing the Arctic Ocean is a highly desirable consequence of a
Eurasian, and eventually circumpolar, Aryan Imperium. If the Arctic
was ice-free, then it would have by far the busiest shipping lanes
in the world, and correspondingly massive ports and cities. All
the other oceans and seas in the world would become backwaters.
European sailors have always understood the need for Arctic trade,
from the Vikings and Hanseatic League to the adventurers searching
for a Northwest passage from the 15th to 19th centuries.
Politically and ideologically, the United States is the catastrophic
result of a failed liberal-humanist experiment by 18th century Europeans.
Even worse, many of the original white settlers had been driven
out of Europe because of their extreme Christian fundamentalism…a
fundamentalism that lives on today in the Red Republican states
that voted for George W. Bush, and also in their Christian Identity
nationalist groups.
If Canada and at least parts of the United States opt to join the
Imperium, then we surround the Arctic Ocean completely and it becomes
a “mare nostrum” (our sea) in the same way that the Mediterranean
became “mare nostrum” for the Romans.
The scientific consensus is that the Arctic will be ice-free by
the end of the century, but I’d like to think that by 2100 our technology
would have made maritime navigation irrelevant, except for hobbyists;
instead we can use airships and inter-continental tunnels for transport.
The Polar Axis City will be the launch-pad for the Aryan Space
Empire (which happily has the acronym ASE=from race of Germanic
Gods), incorporating the terrestrial Imperium stretching across
Eurasia and the Arctic, additional strategic locations on Earth,
especially on the Equator for satellite launches/ space elevators,
and of course any planets, satellites, planetary systems and regions
of space that we occupy. Equatorial bases would be negotiated in
friendly consultation with Chinese, Japanese, Indians, Latin Americans
and any other culture that survives the collapse of the plutocratic
New World Order.
GREEN – HOW TO GET THERE
Political Futurist Party September 1918 Rome “intuits present needs
and articulates precisely the consciousness of the whole race in
its purging revolutionary momentum. The party can be joined by all
Italians, men or women, of any class or age, even if artistic and
literary concepts are beyond them”.
How to get there. Our great advantage is that people know this
stuff instinctively through what Michael Moynihan has called meta-genetics.
Georges Sorel said we need a myth to mobilize the folk, and I say
what better myth than the true one, the ones that speak of Aryan
origins and destiny, the one that every Aryan knows in their blood.
The French post-modernist Paul Virilo has emphasised the importance
of being physically in a place to force change, in his book Speed
and Politics. It’s what he calls Dromology, getting people onto
the streets, as in the French Revolution or unemployed Germans after
1929-30.
I believe the next step would be to establish “Aryan cultural centres”
in the heart of every town and city across the continent. These
centres would be much more than just offices – they would have barrack
dormitories, bars, sports facilities, libraries, temples or a pantheon
to all the Aryan gods (which could also be used as a bar), as well
as offices with IT for communications/ propaganda. Rural Cultural
centres could provide their urban counterparts with free, organic
food, in exchange for new recruits and their labour. I think it’s
better to concentrate resources on that sort of practical project
(as the Arktion Federation is doing with the Jomsburg farm project),
rather than wasting resources on elections and lost deposits. After
all, south London has some sort of immigrant legal rights drop-in
shop or refugee community centre in every high street, but nothing
for the people who built this city.
The function of these cultural centres is to promote Aryan culture,
in its broadest sense, and defend our people. Oswald Mosley had
something similar in the 1930s (sadly without the pagan temples!)
which he called “Black Houses”:
“In the autumn of 1933 it [the B.U.F.] acquired the lease of Whiteland
Teachers Training College in the King’s Road, Chelsea, which became
know as Black House. It was a cross between an administrative headquarters,
social club and army camp. Other Black Houses in the main urban
centres were formed on the same model. In the original one, hundreds
of members of I Squad or the London Defence Force slept, ate and
lived to the sound of the bugle summoning them for reveille (re-valley)
meal-times, parades and lights out. They trained in gymnastics,
boxing and judo. They roared out in their military-looking vans
to defend speakers or rescue them in trouble.”
Instead of judo, I’d suggest some native martial art as researched
by Pennick and others.
Recruitment: sci-fi conventions, teenage games magazines, gay scene
I think it’s very important, not just symbolically, that these
meeting are taking place in the heart of the parasitic Leviathan,
a founder-capital of the New World Order and home to Winston Churchill
and the Rothschilds. As you know, London is one of the citadels
of multi-racism, global capitalism and everything we hate, and has
been for centuries, since Henry VIII, Oliver Cromwell and especially
since the 1688 Glorious Revolution and the foundation of the Bank
of England. My feeling is if a strong, intelligent, positive Aryan
movement can start here and succeed, under the noses of our foes,
then it can succeed anywhere.
Finally, I’d like to end with a quote from Ortega y Gasset, “Europeans
do not know how to live unless they are engaged in some great enterprise.
When this is lacking, they grow petty and feeble and their souls
disintegrate.”
Aryan Futurism is for everyone who feels the fire of Aryan aspiration
and achievement in their blood. Above all, it is about action for
the future.

Aryan Origins
The correspondence below with the National Futurist leader Constantin
von Hoffmeister outlines my thoughts on our origins. Since this
exchange, I have learnt of the Paleolithic Continuity Theory of
Indo-European Origins, which confirms many of my speculations (http://www.continuitas.com/intro.html)
Hail Constantin,
Yes, I’ve read WAFFEN-SS VERSUS ARYANS. Here’s why I think it’s
wrong:
NO ARYAN INVASION OF EUROPE – ARYANS EVOLVED IN EUROPE
Aryans are the branch of mankind that evolved from Cro-Magnons
(Homo Sapiens Sapiens). If you accept the diffusionist model of
human evolution, then Aryans are the branch of mankind that evolved
separately on the western peninsular of the Eurasian continent.
These Cro-Magnons represent a quantum leap in evolution; we were
the first to develop the creative imagination, as seen in cave art
in the south of France and Spain from about 30 millennia ago. We
were the first to create sculptured ivory and stone, and our weapons
and other technologies underwent a corresponding step-change in
sophistication. Cro-Magnons created the Aurignacian culture, which
later developed into the Megalithic civilization of the western
Eurasian seaboard. Whether Cro-Magnons owe their superior intelligence
to intermixing with humans already living in that area (i.e. Neanderthals)
has yet to be conclusively determined.
Take a look at a map of Eurasia, bearing in mind that humans of
the time were essentially coastal creatures. You don’t have to accept
the whole of the Aquatic Ape theory, although it’s increasingly
scientifically plausible, in order to understand the advantages
for our ancestors of living by the sea. What you see in Europe is
a land with lots of coast-lines, islands, peninsulas sticking into
the ocean, and easy access to the lush interior (i.e. the north
European plain) via broad, well-drained rivers (even broader at
the end of the last Ice Age). These conditions were ideal for the
evolution of our early ancestors, unlike the deserts, mountains
and scrubland that separate western Eurasia from Africa and eastern
Eurasia. The only other part of the Eurasian land-mass with comparably
favourable conditions for humans is the great northern plain of
China with access to the coast via huge rivers flowing east and
south-east to the Pacific. Guess what – that’s exactly where the
Oriental/ Mongol race of humans evolved, and later where we find
the very first evidence of Chinese civilization.
As ice retreated from Europe 10,000 years ago, these former-Cro-Magnons
from France and Spain spread northward and eastward as far as Russia,
Ukraine, Scandinavia etc.. They colonized and exploited the banks
of the Rhine, Danube, Dnepr, Don and Volga so successfully that
waves of population in turn went back to the western coasts, unifying
the Aurignacian culture again; the process has been going on ever
since and evidence of Mesolithic and Neolithic trade right across
the continent of Europe is prolific. People living in Russia were
a part of this western Eurasian diffusionist evolution, people who
later the Greeks and Romans knew as Scythians and Slavs. It was
these people (“Cardial” civilization) who developed farming, urban
life and writing in Viols-le-Fort, Languedoc, France and surrounding
regions, including Malta, from around 10,000 years ago. Many of
these earliest costal towns were subsequently inundated as sea-levels
rose dramatically at the end of the last Ice Age. Later, these same
people developed and recorded their pantheons, social structure,
weltanschauung, which were closely-related, if not the same, and
which was later classified as Indo-European, or Aryan.
Of course, other parts of the world saw different types of human
emerge: the previously-mentioned Oriental Mongols, and (of particular
relevance to later European history) the Semites in Arabia and Africa.
An argument can be made for saying Semites might not just be a separate
civilization, but a separate species of humanity with their own
Neanderthal or non-Sapiens-Sapiens antecedents.
There never was an Aryan invasion of Europe. We have always been
here, at least since Homo Sapiens Sapiens (Cro-Magnons). Genetic
tests of skeletons 10,000 years old from Cheddar Gorge, England,
show contemporary inhabitants to be descendants. “Proto-Europeans”
were as Aryan as you or me. For more about this, see Colin Renfrew’s
LANGUAGE AND HISTORY. All we’ve had in Europe is continual development
for c30-40,000 years: Perigordian, Aurignacian, Solutrean, Magdalenian,
Azilian (marking the end of the last ice age), Cardial, (start of
Neolithic Age: farming, domestication), Mesolithic, Neolithic (Carnac,
Orkneys, Malta, Iberia, Stonehenge etc.) and “Aryan” when Europeans
started to record their myths etc., in the Bronze/ Heroic Age. Later,
Aryans developed philosophy, literature, mathematics, music, art,
science and technology to further express the creative imagination
of the race.
Aryan is best thought of as a level of consciousness – the level
of consciousness Cro-Magnons had reached when pre-history turned
into history, and we started to write. European Heroic Age myths
across the continent, such as the Iliad and Eddas, all indicate
a common origin. Because all Europeans were descended from Cro-Magons
and shared the same language, culture and worldview, then it’s unsurprising
that the later tribes of Slavs, Teutons, Italics and Celts should
have an “Aryan” language, social and mythological structure.
GOD OF CONSCIOUSNESS AND WRITING IS AN ARYAN GOD
The divine archetype called Odin/ Woden exists in ALL Aryan pantheons,
not just in Germanic/ Teutonic mythology. He is Lugus/ Lugh with
Celts, Mercury/ Hermes with Italics/Latins/Greeks, Volos with the
Slavs (Orthodoxized as St. Nicholas), Velinas/ Patollus with the
Balts etc. For more, read Georges Dumezil or any Indo-Europeanist
since Dumezil.
LOKI
Presently, Loki is bound to a rock, struggling against the dripping
venom of a poisonous snake, but the day he is free is Ragnarok,
Gotterdammerung when Asgard and Midgard are destroyed and rise anew.
Loki represents the dynamic of evolution, and He is a catalyst,
related to Prometheus and Faust in his relationship to mankind.
On another matter. As you well know, the West is increasingly illegalizing
freedom of thought and speech. Tony Blair’s Nu Labor introduced
a bill into Parliament yesterday which would outlaw freedom of expression
against religion (e.g. Judaism, Christianity, Islam). I’ve read
that there’s still respect for the idea of freedom of speech in
Russia. Do you think that if someone fell foul of our laws, then
they would be able to apply for political asylum in Russia?! How
successful do you think that application would be? Don’t you think
it’s hugely ironic, after all those old black&white Cold-War
spy movies, that it’s the West that has a drab, stupefied, cowered
population?

Ave Constantin!
Saw your photo on the Athenaeum site – very dashing! I can’t read
Russian but the title is promising.
I noticed that RevDevalez on the New Right newsgroup has already
responded to your ARYANS: KILLERS DURING SUNSET essay pointing out
that the people you (and Marija Gimbutas, Ralph Metzner etc. – you’re
in good company) keep endearingly referring to as “indigenous Europeans”
or “Old Europeans” were the same people as the Aryans.
I concur with RevDevalez. All the most recent genetic and archeological
evidence that I’ve read suggests that the southern Russian steppes
were initially colonized from the west. Indeed, this is the only
conclusion compatible with theories about the end of the last Ice
Age, the retreat of the glaciers and our costal “aquatic ape” origins.
Because of the dramatically different environment, early European
farmers were forced to adapt to a more nomadic existence in the
vast, empty plains. This may account for some of the cultural constants
that we have come to associate with an Aryan worldview; for example,
the importance of horses. It may even have contributed to the Aryan,
Faustian spirit of space, limitlessness and infinity, qualities
it shares with the American West frontier of the Nineteenth Century.
Some of these inherent traits of Europeans may have found first
expression and manifestation on the open grasslands north and east
of the Black Sea, but that makes them no less European for that.
As I said in my ARYAN ORIGINS essay, Aryan is a name given to a
certain cultural pattern that emerged in the Bronze Age, significantly
developed by Europeans (descendents of Cro-Magnon cave-painters
of southern France and Iberia) in southern Russia.
“It is possible that once the new pastoralist economy of the steppes
was established, the arable/ steppe boundary may have shifted some
way westward. What may have been in reality an evolution from mixed
farming to pastoralism in that area could thus appear in the archaeological
record as a westward movement. Nor need one doubt that several of
the characteristics of steppe culture which they developed were
indeed taken up in neighbouring lands to the west. These ‘Kurgan’
influences may in some cases have involved some movement of people.
In others they may simply reflect the adoption of some practices
derived from the steppes by the populations on their western margins.
At a detailed level there is much to be done in following up these
ideas, but from the standpoint of Europe as a whole, it is difficult
to believe that there was any significant and sustained movement
of population from eastern to central Europe at this time, around
3500 to 3000bc. This is not the solution to the Indo-European problem,
although it might be relevant to it.” – Colin Renfrew, Archaeology
& Language: The Puzzle of Indo-European Origins.
These cultural innovations spread back westward into central and
western Europe, but as Colin Renfrew points out, there need never
have been an invasion (unlike the Aryan invasion of India, which
was an incursion into a pre-existing civilization racially and culturally
unrelated).
I think a good analogy would be with the spread of railroads across
Europe.
An archaeologist in the far future, assuming he had no written
record, would discover the earliest railroads, from the 1830s, located
in England only. He would see that by the 1870s the whole continent
was covered in a tight network of railroads, with single threads
stretching into Asia and Africa. Along the European railroads, he
might find some old steam engines, with writing like “Richard Garrett
& Sons” or “Duncan & Grant – Belgium” stamped on the side.
At railway termini across Europe he would see stone buildings with
“Bristol Hotel” just legible above their ruined doorways. He might
even come across the Thyssen family mausoleum, compare the DNA with
that of Robert Stephenson in Westminster Abbey, and conclude that
they were the same race! Our future archaeologist might reasonably
conclude that during the Nineteenth Century, England successfully
conquered the whole continent!
But railways spread quickly in Europe because Europeans were ready
for railways. If George Stephenson hadn’t developed the locomotive,
then someone else in England, or northwest Europe, would have done
within the following decade. “None of these developments showed
any signs of a ‘forced’ growth imposed from outside. On the contrary,
they were building on the foundation of centuries of slow accumulation
of capital, technical skills, capitalistic attitudes and wage labour.”
– European Economic Integration, Sidney Pollard.
The same is true, I believe, with the Aryan hypothesis; it should
be considered as a continent-wide cultural shift, a crystallization
of mythology, politics, technics and aesthetics. It is like the
industrial and scientific revolutions, or the Renaissance, or Classical
civilization itself, only more significant and profound because
it is the very first pan-European cultural development that we know
about in some detail. The fact is that people have been moving about,
invading each other, within Europe, for millennia, but that movement
makes no difference to our overall genetic make-up as Aryan Europeans.

Islam and Free Speech
Below is an open letter that I sent to the gay press at the end
of 2005;the only people to publish it to date are Third Way:
I’m mighty concerned about Tony Blair and Nu Labour’s proposed
religious hate laws. I think it’s relevant to all European homosexuals
because human rights pro-multi-cultural lawyers will try to enact
similar legislation across the continent. I’m no lawyer, so perhaps
someone who knows could answer the following questions:
Islam advocates execution for practicing homosexuals. Will it be
illegal for me to say that, to me, Islam is a “hateful” religion
(that is, a religion full of hate, or that excites hatred, directed
against homosexuals)? Will I be able to say that Muslims, because
they follow a religion that preaches hatred of homosexuals, are
themselves “hateful” (that is, full of hate directed against homosexuals)?
Could a Muslim argue that the killing of homosexuals is not an
act of hatred but simply the dispassionate execution of the will
of Allah, maybe even an act of love? Something like the “love the
sinner, hate the sin” line we get from fundie Christians pontificating
about homosexuality. So that even if he wants to kill me, he still
doesn’t hate me.
Alternatively, less ambiguously and more directly, will it be illegal
for me to say that I hate Islam because it is monotheistic, and
to me monotheism is a philosophical anathema, the antithesis of
all that’s best in European culture? Or because of Islam’s misogyny?
By implication, could I say the same thing about individual adult
Muslims since religion, unlike race, is a matter of volition? So
will it be illegal for me to state that I hate Muslims because they
are monotheistic, or misogynistic, or because they have as adults
deliberately abandoned their faculties of reasoning in order to
submit to Allah?
In concurrence with Western philosophy since Plato and Aristotle,
I accept that the ability to reason is a quality that distinguishes
man from animals. To abandon reason is to make man more bestial,
which to my mind is hateful.
In short, will I be able to say that I hate Islam because Islam
hates me? Not just because of my homosexuality, but because I am
a Euro-pagan to boot; an infidel and idolater in their rather emotive
language, which gives them even more reason to want me dead. Can
I say what I think of them, and why?
Finally, if Blair’s legislation is passed, would this posting be
illegal? The Home Office guidance notes on the new bill contains
the following. “It only applies to words, behaviour, written material,
recordings or programmes that are threatening, abusive or insulting.
Second, the material must be intended to, or likely to, stir up
racial or religious hatred. Hatred is a strong term and the offences
will not encompass material that just stirs up ridicule or prejudice
or causes offence. Further, what must be stirred up is hatred of
a group of persons defined by their religious beliefs and not hatred
of the religion itself. Therefore, legitimate discussion, criticism,
or expressions of antipathy or dislike of particular religions or
their adherents will not be caught by the offence”.
If I receive no response, then I will assume all the activists
on this list are too busy shoring-up the crumbling bastions of multi-culturalism
or otherwise subverting European civilization, to answer some urgent,
authentic questions from an authentic European.

Pit of Evil in the Middle East
Pit of evil in the middle east.
Is there some kind of malignant consciousness trapped or buried
somewhere beneath the deserts where Asia and Africa meet, a warped
spirit that not only invades the minds of peoples living locally,
and beyond, but can even blight the very physical environment?
To see images from the area - the bleached, rocky scrubland, deserted
and ruined Crusader forts, fly-blown refugee camps - is to be reminded
of the worst images from the Wasteland of the Arthurian cycle. Where
other regions might have a lake of waterfowl and sedge at its heart,
this strange vortex has the Dead Sea, the below-sea-level toxic
lagoon which periodically vomits globules of black asphalt. The
surrounding dirt and air seems to ooze a preternatural evil, vividly
evoked in Holman Hunt’s lurid, putrid colouring of ‘The Scapegoat’.
(Cheap oil is one of the Middle East’s “gifts” to the world. Without
cheap oil and its imperial and corporate pushers, Western civilization
would have learnt to develop without the hazardous privately-owned
motor car and its filthy internal combustion engine. Cities in Britain
would have developed with far denser populations near their centres
who relied exclusively on public transport, encouraging a less individualistic
and a more collectivist society. Without cheap oil, research and
investment into alternative, sustainable energy generation would
have started far sooner).
The Middle East is home to the world’s three great monotheistic
religions, Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Monotheistic, universalist,
totalitarian, messianic, closed systems of thought that promote
uncritical faith in sexist and homophobic holy scripture. The three
Abrahamic religions, their regulations against free enquiry, free
thought and rationality represent the opposite to Aryan European
values.
Many great European thinkers including Hegel, Toynbee and Evola
have linked the inception of monotheistic thinking to the decay
of the Semitic universal state. All agree that the area is littered
with previous (failed) cycles of civilization. Hegel in 1830: “The
East itself, when by degrees enthusiasm had vanished, sunk into
the grossest vice. The most hideous passions became dominant, and
as sensual enjoyment was sanctioned in the first form which Mahometan
doctrine assumed, and was exhibited as a reward for the faithful
in Paradise, it took the place of fanaticism. At present, driven
back into its Asiatic and African quarters, and tolerated only in
one corner of Europe through the jealousy of Christian powers, Islam
has long vanished from the stage of history at large, and has retreated
into Oriental ease and repose”.
Julius Evola: “The Diaspora, or the scattering of the Jewish People,
corresponded to the by-products of the spiritual dissolution of
a cycle that did not have a ‘heroic’ restoration and in which some
sort of inner fracture promoted processes of an antitraditional
character. There are ancient traditions according to which Typhon,
a demon opposed to the solar God, was father of the Hebrews; various
Gnostic authors considered the Hebrew god as one of Typhon’s creatures.
These are references to a demonic spirit characterized by a constant
restlessness, by an obscure contamination, and by a latent revolt
of the inferior elements.”
Toynbee, the most liberal, says: “On closer inspection we can also
discern what appear to be fossilized relics of similar societies
now extinct, namely: one set including the Monophysite Christians
of Armenia, Mesopotamia, Egypt and Abyssinia and the Nestorian Christians
of Kurdistan and ex-Nestorians in Malabar, as well as the Jews and
Parsees…At the present day the Parsees, like the Jews, survive as
a mere ‘diaspora’; and the petrified religions which so potently
hold the scattered members of the two communities together have
lost their message to mankind, and hardened into fossils of the
extinct Syriac Society”.
Hellenistic and later Western civilizations have quite separate
origins derived from a classic Indo-European worldview, mythology
and social structure which were all developed in the Eurasian forests,
water meadows and steppes many hundreds of years ago, and many hundreds
of miles from the scorched sands of Arabia. The idea of “revealed”
truth from a figure such as Moses, Jesus Christ or Mohammed is quite
alien to the Aryan mind with its need for logic and an aesthetic
which valued above all truth, the real world, as sublime.
From the Middle East monotheism arose like a dark cloud first to
dim the brilliance of the pagan Roman empire with morbid Christianity,
and later to obscure the remaining Hellenistic outposts and Persian
Empire with bloodthirsty Islam. Their intolerant, irrational dogmas
caused the death of untold millions over the centuries. For the
first time Europeans were infected with an evangelical zeal to conquer
the rest of the world for Jesus Christ. Europe’s first overseas
colony, bloodily won in the early Crusades, was Frankish Outremer
with its capital at Jerusalem. When the Crusader kingdom fell, Europe
instead looked westward, resulting in the conversion to Catholicism
of the Aztecs and Incas and the genocide by Puritans of the Indians
of the North American plains. Similarly, Arabs were inspired by
the monotheism of Mohammed to unite and conquer from Spain to south
east Asia.
The land between the Mediterranean and the Persian Gulf has continually
been soaked in blood, a cockpit for colliding empires, a pattern
that continues into the present in a crescent from Gaza to Basra.
The first battle of Megiddo, the plain north of Jerusalem designated
in the ‘Apocalypse of John’ as Armageddon, the site of the ultimate
battle of good versus evil, took place in 1482bce, when Pharaoh
Tuthmosis III crushed the rebellion of the king of Qadesh and his
Syrio-Hittite-Canaanite allies. According to David Hatcher Childress
“And so ended the first battle of Armageddon, a decisive battle
between Egypt in the west and the Syrian-Lebanese foes of the Hittite
Confederacy. So important was this battle in ancient times that
it was well-remembered by all the people of the ancient Middle East,
and the fall of the fortress of Megiddo was a turning point in the
history of the region”. A second battle of Megiddo in 609bce resulted
in the defeat and death of King Josiah of Judah by Pharaoh Necho
II, and a third, in 1918 when General E.H. Allenby defeated the
Turks, led to the fracturing and re-assembling the whole of western
Asia along lines more favourable to the Western plutocracies.
The region’s eternal dirge of disillusion, decay and death now
tolls around the planet. Despite decades of effort, the religious,
ethnic and spiritual crisis has become more and more desperate.
The Israeli nuclear facility at Dimona is vulnerable to bombardment
from Syria, once Russia completes the sale of its Iskander missile
system to Damascus. Dimona is in the Negev desert, not far from
the Dead Sea, and not far from the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah
whose fiery destruction is so gleefully recounted in the Old Testament.
Viewed from Northwestern Europe, the Middle East lies in a particularly
inauspicious direction. North in traditional Aryan lore is the home
of the Polar Gods, of Asgard, the ever-spinning fort of Caer Arianrhod
and Mount Meru the Mountain of Heaven. West is associated with the
Vanir gods of fertility, success, oceanic imagination and the limitless
horizon of beyond. But Southeast is where some of the most destructive
forces in the cosmos meet: Surtr, the fateful fire giant from the
burning southern realm of Muspellheim with the Jotuns, the foes
of the gods, from beyond Ironwood to the east.
Persistent local tradition abounds with stories of djinn, demon
pits and entrances to Hell. One such gateway is at the bottom of
a stone staircase that leads from King David’s tomb on Mount Zion.
Another pit is under the stone bearing Mohammed’s footprint in the
Dome of the Rock on Temple Mount. This is the same rock upon which
Abraham was meant to sacrifice Isaac, and upon which the Ark of
the Covenant was placed in Solomon’s original Temple. It is through
the Knights Templar, masons and freemasons and others that symbols
and patterns from the first temple of Solomon made their way into
modern international finance.
H.P. Lovecraft was sensitive to emanations from the desert. Robert
Turner says in The R’lyeh Text, “In his story The Nameless City
[Weird Tales, November 1921] Lovecraft’s traveller discovers a hidden
valley in the sands of the Arabian desert, and within the valley
a ruined city ‘built before history began’. The mummified remains
of a half-reptilian race reveal the city to be of pre-human origin
and ancient frescoes indicate the existence of a further city concealed
within a subterranean cavern beneath the ruins. Lin Carter points
out that The Nameless City is now held to be the first of the stories
that compromise the Cthulhu Mythos, and that it is here that we
first learn of Abdul Alhazred [author of the Necronomicon, the leitmotiv
of Lovecraft’s Mythos]. In several of the Mythos tales the mad Arab
poet Alhazred is said to have visited the long vanished city of
Irem; the City of Pillars mentioned in the Koran. The location,
and even the definite existence of Irem has been a subject of debate
amongst archaeologists for decades, but recently new evidence has
come to light which almost certainly establishes the factual truth
behind the legend. During February 1992 a newspaper article in The
Independent [25.02.92] revealed that Nasa satellite photographs
showed an ancient road running across a barren “empty quarter” of
Arabia, which after much research led a team of American archaeologists
to the site believed to be the ancient city of the Bedouins called
Ubar, which T.E. Lawrence described as ‘the Atlantis of the Sands’.
According to Bedouin folklore Ubar had been buried in the desert
for over 1,500 years since its destruction. The city existed over
4000 bce and is now thought to lie beneath the town of Shis’r north-west
of Salalah in Oman”. Sir Ranulph Fiennes certainly believed from
the evidence that Irem/ Ubar, which uncannily resembles the immensely
old, wind-swept cities of the Gobi desert described in William Burroughs’
Cities of the Red Night, to be one and the same.
It seems irrational to suggest that a malignant psychic force,
independent of any human agency, could exist under the sands of
the Middle East, a force that can wreak havoc throughout the region
and across the world. But logical and systematic reasoning is itself
a product of Aristotle and the philosophes of the Enlightenment,
that is, a product of Aryan, Western, European civilization. Rationality
does not encompass all of Aryan civilization, neither should we
jump to quick conclusions about parts of the world that we can never
truly understand in the same way as can its native inhabitants of
thousands of years. Also, the Middle East, amongst other things,
has been home to some of the most implacable foes of Aryan civilization.
Europe is caught in a pincer movement stretching from Spain to the
Caucasus and across over a thousand years in time, and now the internal
security of Europe has never been more vulnerable. If there is such
a thing as a psychic equivalent of nuclear waste, radiating corruption
across the desert, there is no good reason why the locals should
ever become fully conscious of it, let alone tell us in the West
about it.
Until we can decide what it is exactly we are up against, it would
be sensible to isolate Western civilization from the Middle East
and throw a cordon sanitaire over the area. Naturally this would
mean a complete reappraisal of Western energy needs as importing
cheap oil from Arabia would no longer be an option. Instead, Europe
could investigate oil supplies from Russia and the Caucasus, with
the long-term necessary goal of European autarky. As for the Middle
East itself, any future political re-structuring will be up to the
people in the area. Perhaps we will be lucky enough to see the re-establishment
of a Caliphate that is able to accommodate Jews and non-Muslims.
A final necessary step for Europe is to remove all Middle Eastern
influences from Aryan civilization; a relatively easy task since
monotheism, messianism etc are not core Western values but rather
excresences on the Aryan body politic.

Pagan Aryan Magic
MAGIC
Magic is ur-technology using will, combined with structured ritual,
creative imagination and higher consciousness. Once in this state
of higher consciousness, the physical universe, Midgard, becomes
malleable to will.
Will
This process is described in Germanic cosmogony (origins of the
universe) with the three divine brothers Wotan, Vili and Ve, who
are the first three gods and creators of mankind and the world (from
Wer-ald, meaning “age of man” – another word for Midgard). These
three brothers encapsulate the act of creation of whatever kind,
by man as well as gods.
Wotan (aka Woden/ Odin) literally means to be ecstatic; as described
by Adam of Bremen in the eleventh century, “Wodan id est furor”
[Woden, that is to say fury]. The meaning of Wili is unchanged in
most Teutonic languages (Will); while Ve means “apartness” – separate
from the everyday world – with the implication of “sacredness”.
Later, the Vikings would use the same word for their triangular-shaped
sacred enclosures.
Altered Consciousness – WODANAZ
From clues contained in this blue-print, MANNERBUND and the Arktion
Federation have devised rituals to progress the sacred destiny of
Homo Europeanus. The quickest and easiest route to a state of higher
consciousness is via sex and drugs. Of course, there are other methods
e.g.: extreme mortification through asceticism, intense and prolonged
meditation, chanting and shamanic drumming. But most of these methods
are alien to modern (and indeed ancient) Europeans, whereas sex
and drugs, above all alcohol, are like old friends – particularly
for gay men on the scene.
Entheogens (hallucinogenic drugs) traditionally used by our ancestors
include the fly agaric mushroom, ergot (base for LSD), hemp and
the solanaceae containing atropine, such as mandrake, henbane, thornapple
and deadly nightshade. Tne love affair between alcohol and the European
imagination continues, as strong as ever, from Mother Russia to
the Whisky Galore pubs of the Atlantic coast. As Bowie’s Thomas
Newton character replies at the end of MAN WHO FELL TO EARTH when
questioned about his drinking, “I see things”.
Soma
Aryan mythology abounds in references to magical, consciousness-altering
drugs. In Germanic mythology it is called Odroerir (literally “Wonder-raiser”
in Old Norse): the mead of poetic inspiration. This mead, brewed
from the blood of Kvasir (the wisest of all creatures), was later
stolen by Odin, taking the form of an eagle, from the Giants. Returning
to Asgard with his booty, Odin allows a few drops of the precious
liquid to fall to Earth to provide inspiration for his children
on Midgard.
This myth bears a more-than-passing resemblance to the Greek tale
of Zeus and Ganymede, which fuses the themes of drugs and homosexuality.
The Trojan prince Ganymede (from whom the Romans got the word “catamite”)
is abducted by Zeus in the form of an eagle to become his loves
and, most significantly, cup-bearer – the cup containing the magical
drink ambrosia. Celts have their cauldron of regeneration, which
with the coming of Xianity was transformed into the Holy Grail.
But perhaps the most famous of these mythical psychedelic drug-drinks
(thanks to Aldous Huxley’s BRAVE NEW WORLD) is Soma.
In the earliest surviving Aryan writings, the RIG VEDA (1500bce),
Soma is a god and also a drink-sacrifice, and once again it is an
eagle that brings Soma to the warrior god Indra. Sadly, the recipe
for Soma is now lost.
Sleipner
Most modern homosexual men are oblivious to the power of sexual
energy; they dissipate it in romantic love (not so bad) or, worse,
empty hedonistic individualism – an extension of capitalist consumerism
into the most basic of drives (“the meat market”). They are like
fish swimming in a reservoir behind a hydro-electric dam, completely
unaware of the immense power being generated around them. MANNERBUND
will expand consciousness to give these men a higher perspective
and transform their fish-consciousness into that of an eagle soaring
above.
That sexual activity alters consciousness can be taken as given:
Aleister Crowley and Austin Osman Spare are two of the most significant
magicians of the modern era to recognize this, and based their magical
philosophies on concentration of will at the moment of climax.
Climax launches the willed-intention into the Web of Wyrd, usually
with the use of sigils or, as in the case with MANNERBUND, runes.
Homosexual sex is of a different order from straight sex; on a mundane
level it is never associated with re-production. On a more profound
level it dispenses with mundane reality (male/ female). Unlike dualistic
sex which is domestic, tame and aims at harmony through the balanced
polarities of male and female, homosexual sex multiplies “sameness”,
“oneness” and consequently is “wild”, singular, non-dual, more concentrated
and therefore more powerful.
Our Germanic forebears were fully aware of the special power of
same-sex magical orgasm. Loki, the blood-brother of Odin who represents
the not-always-benevolent forces of cultural evolution and the five
percent creative minority and culture-bearers of any civilization,
is the most ambivalent of all mythological figures, a trickster
like Hermes/ Mercury.
As a result of what is effectively a same-sex encounter, Loki produces
Sleipnir, Odin’s sky-riding eight-legged horse. In the YNGALINGA
SAGA, Odin himself is accused of being Ergi (usually interpreted
as taking a passive role in homosexual sex) because of his use of
Seidr, a type of intuitive magic usually practiced by women. Odin’s
nick-name Jalkr – gelding – is also telling.
Sacred Ritual – VE
A magical intention is only effectively performed when the context
is correct: right time, right people, right frame of mind, correct
correspondences. This structure separates a magical act from a mundane
act and makes it sacred (Ve). MANNERBUND believes that the best
of all frameworks for rituals to renew and advance Western civilization
are those based on our earliest archetypes and mythologies and which
are embedded in our racial sub-conscious.
Uniquely Aryan archetypes include Polar Mythology, the Promethean
spirit, the Faustian spirit, the ancient mystery of the Swastika,
the Black Sun and the MANNERBUND. It is those archetypes that acted
as a spur to the creation of Aryan civilization in the first place;
to use any other system would be counter-productive and profoundly
destructive.

Futurist Spectrum: Infrared to Ultraviolet
Futurist Spectrum
spm111@yandex.ru
New Right and Traditionalist speculations on futurism can be imagined
as a spectrum, with the realists at the infra-red end and romantics
and poets verging toward ultra-violet. A few, most notably the Italian
Futurist Filippo Marinetti, fought not to be restricted to a certain
point on that continuum; the man who could anticipate and wax lyrical
about Twenty-First Century alternative technology, “the energy of
distant winds and rebellious seas, transformed into millions of
kilowatts by the genius of man, would be distributed everywhere…regulated
by the the keyboards vibrating under the fingers of technicians”
practising “the religion of extrinsic will and daily heroism” was
the same man to head a campaign against Italians eating spaghetti
in the early 1930s.
Germans took note of that initial bright blue burst of Futurism
from Italy, but their futurism was to be of a more serious and sombre
variety. Oswald Spengler stressed the inevitability of technology
for Western civilization as a part of our Faustian spirit and destiny.
Junger and Niekisch were more celebratory of the efficiency, dynamism
and productive power of modern technology, and the possibilities
it could open up for the individual and society. Meanwhile in practical,
pragmatic England, at the red, realist end of the spectrum, Alexander
Raven Thomson of the British Union of Fascists proposed a model
for an automated civilization in part inspired by insect-hives.
After the War, while consumer capitalism was refining cybernetics,
Traditionalists and Conservative Revolutionaries unsurprisingly
stuck to the Romantic and metaphysical, ultra-violet side of the
spectrum. James Madole was sufficiently distanced, geographically
at least, from the catastrophe in Europe to influence the National
Renaissance Party in the United States. Madole and his futurist
ideas were themselves influenced by Theosophy and other occult sources.
Later, in Europe and America, again in the ultra-violet, metaphysical
realms, science-fiction writers like Michael X. Barton, Wilhelm
Landig, Jean Parvulesco, Ernst Zundel and W.A. Harbinson developed
a Nazi/ UFO/ Survival mythology, which extended to the Aryan Aldebaran
thesis of Austrian science fiction in the 1990s. For a book at the
outer limits of ultra-violet, try “The Black Sun: Montauk’s Nazi-Tibetan
Connection” by Peter Noon. Philip K. Dick’s “The Man in the High
Castle” is a (slightly) more mainstream science fiction novel about
an Axis victory in World War Two, which contains some interesting
ideas. Reflections of this UFO/ survival mythology can be caught
in mainstream popular culture, such as in “The X-Files Movie” which
depicts the aesthetic perfection of silver spacecraft gliding over
the glittering purity of Antarctic glaciers and ice-mountains.
Just as Marinetti’s Futurism marked the start of the Twentieth
Century, so the brilliant, emerald-green flash of Guillaume Faye’s
Archeo-Futurism marked its end. Faye emerged from GRECE, which had
always been pro-technology. “In the 20th century appeared the possibility
for men to transform and dominate themselves, and to go much farther
than simply adapting to their surroundings in forging their own
environment; the prospect of biology, electronics, genetic engineering,
telematics, astrophysics and space research announce the coming
of the ‘third man’.”- GRECE statement.
Guillaume Faye and GRECE were of revolutionary significance because
they were the first to systematically merge George Dumezil’s recent
discoveries of Aryan tri-partite structuralism with contemporary
politics and technology, to be made manifest in the pagan Imperium.
My own belief is that the idea of synthesis/ the Hegelian dialectic/
resolution of opposites into a singularity is at the heart of Aryan
mythology and cosmogenesis. It is represented most often as the
(North) Pole; Hlidskalf – Odin’s throne – above Asgard in the Eddas.
I contend that Asgard/ Olympus/ Caer Arianrhod is a blueprint for
the future.
Recent Futurisms, apart from Archeo-Futurism, include Constantin
von Hoffmeister’s National Futurism www.newnation.com/Hoffmeister/index,
the Surreal Futurism of Ars Vindex www.rosenoir.org/articles/surreal.php,
and my own Aryan Futurism. As an Anglo, I’m typically at the redder
end of the spectrum, concerned with nuts & bolts and organizing
practicalities like the environment and economy. Just as Le Corbusier
imagined homes as “machines for living” in an ideal (fascist) civilization,
so I can imagine Paolo Soleri’s Arcologies (massive hermetically-sealed
self-sufficient cities) as “machines for conquest”. Not for mundane
territorial expansion, but for the ultimate conquest of Space and
Time.
Futurism and Progress
In his “Age of Ideologies” (1982) Karl Dietrich Bracher argues
that since the Enlightenment, two opposing ideas of progress have
fought it out in Europe: progress as freedom versus progress as
power. Generally, liberals and leftists supported the idea of progress
as freedom, while Hegel and thinkers on the right took the opposite
view.
Freedom is a tricky, ambiguous word. A man can be free “from” the
material world, i.e. live as an ascetic hermit, or a Buddhist who
has renounced desire. Alternatively, a man can be free “to” the
material world, meaning he has access to everything material, but
everything material has access – purchase – to the man. The man
becomes a free offerer, and a free offer, in the supermarket of
life.
Power has no such ambiguity; a man can only have power “over” the
material world. One aspect of power is the ability to manipulate
matter in accordance with will, which is one of the essential components
of the Faustian spirit and the basis of Futurism.
Finally, some of the liberal and universalist futurists still occasionally
have some useful ideas, despite their mistaking our particular European
industrial civilization for a universal civilization. H.G. Wells
(especially in “Shape of Things to Come”), Arthur C. Clarke and
the Catholic theologian Teilhard de Chardin all have interesting
ideas concerning evolution, amongst other things, which can be adapted
to New Right metapolitics.

Hadrian and China
In the year 124ce Hadrian’s glittering Imperial procession reached
the easternmost province of the empire, Bithynia on the Black Sea.
At the city of Trapezus (modern day Trabzon in Turkey, near the
border with Georgia) he erected a monument to the good luck and
prosperity of the town. Trapezus was a successful tunny-fishing
and trading port, so Hadrian built a new harbour and surmounted
his monument with a large gilded copper fish. However, if instead
he had carried on building, higher and higher, he would have become
cognisant of a remarkable fact.
As more and more of the Eurasian continent came into his view,
spreading out for hundreds of miles below, he would have looked
westward with satisfaction to the colourful patchwork of his own
empire, a criss-cross of roads connecting market towns with marble
citadels, walled frontier forts and shipping lanes free of pirates.
But his knowledge of Alexander the Great’s expeditions and the subsequent
trade in silks, incense and spices would not have prepared him for
the shocking site to the east. For there, neatly balanced at the
other end of the Eurasian continent to his own, was another empire
which was almost a mirror- image of his own.
Hadrian’s shock would be complete were we to also equip the Emperor
with a time-machine. In less than three hundred years, he would
see the western half of his empire in turmoil; cities burning, forests
encroaching, Saxons crossing the North Sea. Another two hundred
years, and the eastern remnant of his empire is collapsing under
the onslaught from Arabian desert tribes. Meanwhile, in the far
east, the mirror-image oriental empire is calm, ordered and progressing,
for as far and as long as he can see.
Hadrian left Trapezus with no such insight, and it is my contention
that it is only very recently that historians and others have begun
to understand and study the significance of the simultaneous emergence
of manifest oriental and occidental civilizations. I will have more
to say about this at the end of this essay. Happily, the Emperor
did receive a revelation of another sort during his sojourn; it
was in Bithynia that Hadrian met Antinous, his comrade, lover and
life-partner.
At the time of Hadrian, the Roman and Chinese Han empires were
both roughly the same size at around 4 million square kilometres
each. Both were the same age, becoming recognizable empires at around
the same time during the beginning of the second century bce, and
both were centred on and exploited the main geographical feature
of the region; for Rome the Mediterranean Sea and for the Han empire
the great northern plain of China.
Most surprising of all, both empires were equivalent in population
at about 60 million people each (approximately the population of
the present-day United Kingdom) out of a total global population
of perhaps quarter of a billion. As the Stanford ACME Project puts
it, “2,000 years ago, about one-half of the human species was contained
within two political systems, the Roman Empire in western Eurasia
and the Han empire in eastern Eurasia. At no time since has such
a large proportion of humankind been ruled by two governments.”
To understand the central conundrum, that is, why the occidental
empire fell while the oriental empire continued to flourish into
the present, is the task of the rest of this essay. Since both empires
were the result of city states and smaller kingdoms merging mainly
either through dynastic diplomacy or through military invasion,
until finally being swallowed by the regional great power, it is
necessary to examine the internal composition of each empire in
turn.
Between 221-210bce the Qin state managed to unite the other six
imperial states (Yan, Qi, Wei, Zhao, Hann and Chu), who had been
fighting during the Warring States period (481-221bce), to create
the Han empire. The Han empire continued to expand into it’s hinterland
and lasted until 220ce, when it split into the Three Kingdoms. Previous
to the Warring States period, the Spring and Autumn period (770-481bce)
had witnessed the consolidation of around fifteen major feudal states
into the previously mentioned seven imperial states.
What is essential about these feudal and imperial states in early
China is that they were all homogenous, sharing a common origin
and close racial and cultural affinities. According to Toynbee:
“The fathers of the Sinic civilization do not seem to have differed
in race from the peoples occupying the vast region to the south
and south-west which extends from the Yellow River to the Brahmaputra
and from the Tibetan Plateau to the China Sea. If certain members
of that wide-spread race created a civilization while the rest remained
culturally sterile, the explanation may be that a creative faculty,
latent in all alike, was evoked in those particular members, and
in those only, by the presentation of a challenge to which the rest
did not happen to be exposed…none of the related peoples farther
south, in the valley of the Yangtse, for example, where this civilization
did not originate, can have had so hard a fight for life”.
The compositions and histories of the city states and kingdoms
which were eventually to coalesce into the Hellenic universal state,
i.e. the Roman Empire, were very different from those of China.
Prospects for a Hellenic European empire, as stable as China, started
well with Aryan Greek colonization of the Aegean, Black and northern
Mediterranean seas from the eighth century bce. The Battle of Chaeronea
(338bce), when Alexander the Great of Macedon defeated the combined
armies of Athens and Thebes, marked the most spectacular example
to date of a core civilization, in this case Greece, being swallowed
whole by a comparatively larger but closely-related nation on its
periphery. Usually, members of the core civilization consider its
bigger, more powerful neighbour to be semi-barbaric, despite sharing
the same language and cultural roots. Ironically, Macedon was to
suffer the same fate at the hands of Rome after the Battle of Pydna
some 170 years later.
At Pydna the stakes were higher than Chaeronea because more territory
was under dispute, nonetheless Rome shared the same racial and cultural
origins as Macedonian Greece, in the same way that Macedonians themselves
had originally shared a civilization with Athens and Thebes. So
the military defeat of Macedon and the Greeks in 168bce signified
not the defeat, but the consolidation of Hellenism. “Behind the
greatness of Rome we can recognize forces of the heroic Aryan-Western
cycle at work…While next to other peoples such as the Greeks and
the Etruscans the Romans may at first have appeared as ‘barbarians’,
their lack of ‘culture’ concealed (as in the case of some Germanic
populations at the time of the barbarian invasions) an even older
force that acted in a style compared to which all cultures of an
urban type appear as decadent and disaggregative.” observes Julius
Evola “Many people thought that the Roman world, in its imperial
and pagan phase, signified the beginning of a new Golden Age, the
king of which, Kronos, was believed to be living in a state of slumber
in the Hyperborean region. During Augustus’s reign, the Sibylline
prophecies announced the advent of a ‘solar’ king, a rex a coelo
or ex sole missus, to which Horace seems to refer when he invokes
the advent of Apollo, the Hyperborean god of the Golden Age. Virgil
too seems to refer to this rex when he proclaims the imminent advent
of a new Golden Age, of Apollo, and of heroes. Thus Augustus conceived
his symbolic ‘filiation’ from Apollo; the phoenix, which is found
in the figurations of Hadrian and of Antoninus, is in strict relation
to this idea of a resurrection of the primordial age through the
Roman Empire.”
The same fear of a vast, monolithic, “semi-barbaric” neighbour
became evident to central Europeans from the Eighteenth Century
onwards; this time the stakes could not be higher. For a while in
the Twentieth Century it looked as if western Europe would be absorbed
into a new Soviet imperium, and once again a core civilization would
have been swallowed whole by a racially and culturally-related,
but much bigger, neighbour.
Before the defeat of Macedon, five principal states struggled for
supremacy in the Mediterranean: Rome, Macedon, the Seleucid empire,
Carthage and Egypt. The Seleucid empire encompassed the Hellenic
successor states to the Aryan Persian empire which Alexander had
conquered. Carthage was the most powerful of a network of Phoenician
Semitic colonies spreading along the southern Mediterranean from
Palestine to Spain. It was the pinnacle of what Toynbee refers to
as Syriac civilization. Egypt, well past its Golden Age by this
time, was composed of a population of Semites and Africans with
a recently-installed Hellenic ruling elite.
Rome triumphed, and was left with the task of managing the volatile,
heterogeneous, multiracial population on all sides of the Mediterranean
Sea and beyond. It was Rome’s singular misfortune, just after the
official establishment of Pax Romana and the Empire, to have lost
against the German chief Arminius (Hermann) of the Cherusci at the
fateful Battle of Teutoburg (9ce). “Varus [the Roman commander]
nearly wrecked the empire, since three legions with their general
and all their officers and auxiliary forces, and the general staff,
were massacred to a man. When the news reached Rome, Augustus ordered
patrols of the city at night to prevent any rising” says Suetonius,
before describing the devastating affect the defeat had on the emperor
himself. The anguish of Augustus was understandable; had he secured
the territory between the Rhine and the Elbe as was his plan prior
to 9ce, a virgin vista would have offered itself up to Rome. Legionaries
would have been standing at the threshold of the northern European
plain, which opened up far beyond what one day would become Rus.
Rome need no longer depend on essential grain from Africa if Ukraine
could be brought into production. The local tribes, Scythes, Germans
and Celts, and early Slavs shared a common kinship and heritage
with Rome, unlike the diverse peoples on the southern and south-eastern
shores of the Mediterranean, even if initially this kinship went
unrecognized by either conquerors or conquered. We can be sure that,
as in Italy and Gaul, a fruitful synthesis would have ensued. Rome
for the first time would have been a truly European empire, not
merely a Mediterranean empire, with a prospect of prosperity and
security stretching far into the future.
China’s long era of unified harmonious administration came to a
temporary halt at the close of the Han Dynasty and the succession
of the Three Kingdoms (Wei, Shu and Wu 220-265ce). After a period
of political, administrative and bureaucratic confusion the former
Han empire was reconstituted during the Sui (581-618) and Tang (618-907)
dynasties. Periods of strong centralized imperial dynastic rule
alternated with more diffuse administrations. The only significant
threat to China’s invulnerability came in 1206ce when Genghis Khan
unified the Mongolian tribes into the Mongol Khanate, which allowed
Kublai Khan to conquer the Chinese central plain in 1271ce. Kublai
Khan went native, as is the way when pastoral nomad tribes invade
and hold settled communities, so traditional life continued while
the Middle Empire strengthened and expanded.
Even after multiple shocks and divisions China, because of its
racial and cultural homogeneity, is able to reconstitute itself
as effectively as the intelligent liquid metal which makes up the
T-X Machine from Terminator III.
Rome’s initial decline can be ascribed to internal factors, weakening
the borders sufficient to allowing the breach which ushered in the
Age of Migrations, when once again race plays a decisive role in
history. Whether Gibbon and Nietzsche are right, and the internal
decline can be blamed on the introduction of Christianity, or whether
more prosaic developments such as the hollowing-out of the productive
classes, or economic stagnation, or the increasing laxity of stipulations
required for Roman citizenship are to blame, there can be no doubt
that Constantine, the first Christian emperor, dealt a decisive
blow by dividing the empire in two, with a new capital city vaingloriously
named after himself.
The western empire was overrun by German tribes from 410ce; Visigoths
in Spain, Ostrogoths in Italy and central Europe and Franks in Gaul
created enduring feudal successor states, culminating in a weak
and limited restoration of empire by Charlemagne (742-814ce) on
a part of Rome’s western territories. Thus the Rhineland, which
in the previous (Hellenic) cycle of Aryan civilization had been
a fiercely disputed frontier became the core for a new cycle of
Aryan Western civilization.
The remaining eastern half of the empire with its capital at Constantinople
came under increasing attack from Arab Muslim armies from the 630s
ce onwards. 650ce marked the consolidation of Islam in the former
Persian Sassinid empire, Arabs under Islam now controlled all the
territories once claimed by Carthage, Egypt and the Seleucid empire.
Of the five major powers that had been co-opted to create the Roman
empire, only the two Aryan powers of Greece (once Macedon, now Byzantium)
and Italy escaped Islamic hegemony. Any attempt to restore the Roman
empire, with borders co-extensive to those at the time of Hadrian,
was undesirable and besides impossible after 630ce with Mohammed
ruling half of Arabia.
Thus the fall of Rome in 410ce proved to be permanent. Unlike China,
its constituent elements were too diverse, too multiracial and multicultural
to orchestrate a successful reprise. Attempts have been made with
increasing frequency to unite the new Western civilization, but
such a Western universal state (Imperium) remains for the future.
The Middle Kingdom or Middle Empire, along with its closely-related
ancient oriental civilizations of Korea and Japan, is essentially
autarkic. Historically, despite periods of exploration, China has
displayed no appetite for global dominion. Napoleon is quoted as
saying, “I recognize only two nations, the Occident, and the Orient”
and however controversial his plans for Europe were, and continue
to be, we can be sure that he had no serious plan to invade China.
Even for the European most often portrayed as bent on world domination,
Adolf Hitler, China was not a part of the programme. China is simply
too massive, too old, too sophisticated, too culturally alien for
any sensible European to even contemplate provoking. Although that
has not stopped the Western plutocracies attempting in their greed-inspired
stupidity to undermine Chinese sovereignty.
Comparisons between the ancient Mediterranean and China were studied
and written about by Georg Hegel, Max Weber and Karl Wittfogel,
and a number of specialist historical studies have appeared sporadically
since the 1980s, but the subject has never received the proper attention
that it deserves. According to ACME, “There is no intellectual justification
for this persistent neglect…the comparative history of the largest
agrarian empires of antiquity has attracted no attention at all.
This deficit is only explicable with reference to academic specialization
and language barriers.”
Might it be that a comparative study would reveal causes for the
permanent fall of the Roman empire that the academic establishment,
still wedded to discredited notions of multiculturalism and multiracism,
would find too unpalatable to contemplate?

MANNERBUND AND HOMOSEXUALITY
MANNERBUND
ASPECTS OF MALE MYSTERY CULTS (published in New Imperium magazine
March 2006)
spm111@yandex.ru
Homosexuals have a long and honourable tradition as culture-bearers,
and for fighting for and defending their tribes and later, nations.
Now, when the survival and evolution of Western Civilization itself
is at stake, the duty of all brave, aware, truthful and well-meaning
gay men is self-evident. Homosexuals must act as white blood cells,
ready to attack any invasion of the Western body politic.
Theory of Mannerbund
The consequences of the Neolithic agricultural revolution at first
resulted in a mean and squalid life for Europeans. Archaeological
studies of skeletons show that the first farmers had more nutrition-related
diseases, and died younger, than their Paleolithic hunter-gatherer
ancestors. Labour was intensive, people barely scratched a subsistence
livelihood form the land, in contrast to hunter-gatherers who had
spent little more than an hour a day working for all their requirements.
Social organization was basic; nuclear families in huts wallowing
in drudgery had no time for politics and higher civilization.
As farming techniques slowly improved, groups of men were able
to escape the social domesticity and relentless toil to start to
build alternative social and political structures that went beyond
the basic demands of the nuclear family, reproduction and subsistence
farming. A new, superior and more complex human organization became
possible. Defence of the tribe against other marauding MANNERBUND
was the chief priority, acting as a catalyst to further refinement.
As the radical Italian traditionalist Julius Evola states, “It
was this MANNERBUND, in which the qualification of “man” had simultaneously
an initiatory (i.e. sacred) and a warrior meaning, that wielded
the power in the social group or clan. This MANNERBUND was characterized
by special tasks and responsibilities; it was different from all
other societies to which members of the tribe belonged. In this
primordial scheme we find the fundamental ‘categories’ differentiating
the political order from the ‘social’ order. First among these is
a special chrism – namely, that proper to ‘man’ in the highest sense
of the word (vir was the term employed in Roman times) and not merely
a generic homo: this condition is marked by a spiritual breakthrough
and by detachment from the naturalistic and vegetative plane. Its
integration is power, the principle of command belonging to the
MANNERBUND. We could rightfully see in this one of the ‘constants’
(i.e. basic ideas) that in very different applications, formulations
and derivations are uniformly found in theory or, better, in the
metaphysics of the State that was professed even by the greatest
civilizations of the past.” (Julius Evola, MEN AMONG THE RUINS.
Inner Traditions, Rochester, Vermont, USA 2002). So, the MANNERBUND
provides the very foundation for Western civilization. Evola again,
“Anti-militaristic democracy is the expression of ‘society’ which,
with its material ideals of peace or, at most, of wars waged to
maintain peace, is opposed to the political principle that is, to
the principle of the MANNERBUND, the shaping force of the State
that has always depended on a warrior or military element, that
cherished less material ideals, such as honour and superiority.”
(MEN AMONG THE RUINS, as above).
MANNERBUND IN MYTH AND LEGENDS
The earliest Aryan myths, from India to Ireland, mention homosexual
warrior bands. In the Indian Rig Veda, composed after the Aryan
invasions (c1500bce) and the earliest of Hindu sacred texts, they
are called gandharvas (divine youths) and maruts (storm gods, sons
of Rudra the ithyphallic proto-Siva). Maruts, although they “adorned
themselves like women” are essential in helping Indra to destroy
the Soma-demon Vrtra, performing “joyous deeds in the ecstasy of
drinking Soma”.
Centaurs and Western Philosophy
Gandharvas are a band of semi-divine men united in initiation.
They are sometimes described as having horses’ heads and men’s bodies,
and are educators of heroes. They are like centaurs in Greek mythology
with the bodies of horses and the torsos and heads of men (the repeated
reference to horses shows the importance of this animal in all Aryan
cultures).
Chiron is the most famous of the centaurs, who nurtures and educates
the homosexual hero Achilles using the gifts of wisdom and bone-marrow.
Bone-marrow, though nutritious, is more probably a metaphor for
semen: both are white and contained within the phallic bone. Chiron
was also tutor to Asklepios, who is the son of Apollo and the Hellenic
god of medicine. It seems more than likely that the men-only academia
and symposia (originally, drinking bouts) of the Classical period,
frequented by Socrates, Plato and Aristotle, were vestiges of MANNERBUND
customs.
Wolf Cults
That Greece had its own man-wolf cults (witness Lycaon, Tyrant
of Arcadia – whence the word lycanthropy) is well-documented, but
the pre-historical Classical legend relating most closely to the
MANNERBUND is that of the Luperci. These were young men who gathered
around Romulus and Remus, the founders of Rome who had been brought
up by a she-wolf on the banks of the Tiber.
One of early Rome’s more notorious legends concerns Romulus leading
his Luperci’s to the abduction and subsequent rape of the Sabine
women. The women were from a neighbouring tribe; the rapes were
planned not for fun but very specifically to increase the numbers
of the Roman tribe. Centuries later, during the height of the Empire,
the Lupercalia was still celebrated as a fertility festival by gangs
of naked young men running through the streets of Rome brandishing
whips.
Those deadly enemies of the Romans, the Germanic tribes east of
the Rhine, shared at least one similarity with the Imperium; their
wolf-cults. Called Ulfhednar (=”wolf-skins”, because that is what
they wore), they were composed of cult bands of warriors dedicated
to Woden (Odin), who himself keeps two wolves, Geri and Freki (=”greedy”).
As late as 930ce King Harald I Haarfager (=Fairhair) employed Ulfhednar
as his bodyguards. The Ulfhednar were not alone. Other Teutonic
warrior-fraternities that we still know about include the Boar-warriors
(the Sutton Hoo helmet found in East Anglia and now in the British
Museum is crowned with the image of a boar), who fought in wedge-shaped
formations called Svinfylking, and most famously of all the Berserkir
(=”Bear-shirts”, from whom we get they expression “going beserk”
– because that’s what they did in battle, usually naked).
These brutal MANNERBUND left their legacy to medieval Europe in
heraldry and in the names of their chiefs, later kings of the earliest
European family of nations. Bearskin hats are still worn by royal
guards in Britain and Denmark.
Another lasting legacy to Europe from the MANNERBUND are the runes;
runes are believed to be first spread around Europe by a group known
as the Heruli, which means literally “belonging to the marauding
band”. “Heri” means marauder, and it is from that word that modern
English gets the verbs “to harry” and “to harass”. The Heruli were
accused by the contemporary early church of practicing homosexuality,
and Connell O’Donovan and Kris Kershaw have shown how their naming
practices, cultic and runic practices, origin myth and the homosociality
of their warrior culture strongly indicate they belong within the
tradition of Aryan MANNERBUND.
Of particular relevance to Teutonic MANNERBUND generally and homosexuality
are the observations of Germanic scholar Margaret C. Ross (Hildr’s
Ring: A Problem in the Ragnarsdrapa, Medieval Scandinavia 6. 1973)
concerning the Jardarmen ceremony, a rite of blood-brotherhood in
which young male initiates were passed under three strips of turf,
referred to as “earth torques”. The torque is a choker-ring, popular
with Celts and Teutons, and Ross says that as the Jardarmen rite
is “connected with ceremonies of fostbroedralag (foster-brotherhood),
one might suggest that its significance in the initiation ceremony
was anal rather than vaginal in that the boys might have participated
in a rite of communal sodomy to mark their entry into adult male
society”.
Legendary Celtic Mannerbund
A Celtic king whose name betrays its totem-animal-based MANNERBUND
origins is that most illustrious king of all: Arthur (from Artois
– bear). Arthur had his Knights of the Round Table, an idealized
model of Imperial democratic governance; the full homosexuality
of which is brought out in Richard Wagner’s opera Parsifal.
Finn is the leader of a similar warrior-band, this time Irish;
the Fena. As Peter Lambourn Wilson writes in PLOUGHING THE CLOUDS
(City Light Books, San Francisco 1999), “The Fena are not as other
mortals. Like Maruts and Gandharvas, we might call them demi-gods.
Their feasting, drinking, hunting, brawling and fucking represent
the raison d’etre of the Indo-European MANNERBUND – but their shape-shifting,
their ambiguous relations with fairyland, and their poetic frenzies
mark them as ‘divine youths’”.
Foster-brothers Cu Chulainn and Ferdia are two lovers in an Irish
MANNERBUND who, due to the machinations of Queen Mebd of Connacht,
are forced to fight on opposing sides. As Cu Chulainn says:
fast friend, forest companions
we made one bed and slept one sleep
in foreign lands after the fray.
Scathach’s pupils, two together,
we’d set forth to comb the forest.
After the first day of battle they met and kissed, but were denied
sex although “their charioteers slept by the same fire”. This pattern
is repeated on the second and third day, until on the fourth day
Cu Chuliann slays Ferdia, exclaiming to the companion who he cradles,
“O Ferdia! Your death will hang over me like a cloud forever”. The
story recalls the lament of Achilles for Patroclus at Troy.
These relationships were by no means uncommon, as the evidence
surviving into non-mythological, non-legendary, historical time
demonstrates.
MANNERBUND IN HISTORY
In 371bce the Sacred Band of Thebes was formed in Hellas. This
military unity, consisting of 150 pairs of male couples, was based
on the belief that men fighting alongside their lovers would rather
die that shame one another. The Sacred Band was annihilated thirty-three
years later by Philip of Macedon and his son Alexander, himself
homosexual, at the Battle of Chaeronea. British historian Arnold
J. Toynbee holds this defeat as responsible for the first fatal
breakdown of the Hellenic civilization.
Celtic MANNERBUND made a number of successful raids into the Mediterranean
world, sacking Rome in 390bce and Apollo’s Oracle at Delphi around
a century later, before finally the tables were turned by Julius
“Queen of Bithynia” Caesar. These raids gave Classical writers a
chance to observe the behaviour of the Celts at close quarters.
Aristotle wrote that, “The men are inclined to let themselves be
dominated by women, this is not an unusual tendency amongst energetic
warrior races. Apart, of course, from the Celts, who respect manly
love quite openly, so to speak.”
Diodorus Siculus was even more explicit, describing Celtic warriors
as sleeping on animal skins flanked by male lovers, “they abandon
without qualm the bloom of their bodies to others [and] don’t think
this is shameful”.
Norman nobles and the royal Norman court in London were regularly
criticized by the Church for homosexuality, which perhaps developed
from the Jardarmen rites of their not-so-distant Norse forefathers.
Rufus (William II), England’s last homosexual pagan king, came in
for particular opprobrium, partly because of the colourful, form-fitting
clothes he favoured for himself and his butch companions.
Prince William was the nephew of Rufus: when he drowned in the
White Ship disaster of 1120ce Xian zealots believed the catastrophe
to be divine punishment for on-board homosexual orgies.
[Sailors, specially pirates, have often taken on the appearance
of floating MANNERBUND fuelled, in the famous words of Churchill’s
assistant Anthony Montague-Browne, by “rum, sodomy and the lash.”
Herulians were the earliest recorded Viking pirates, conducting
raids along the Atlantic coast from Portugal to Denmark even before
the final collapse of the Roman empire. Their social structure is
best described as an anarchic democracy. This free-booting MANNERBUND
spirit was once more unleashed in the Caribbean with the discovery
of the New World. Companies of ships one again formed their own
tiny democracies. Science Fiction author William Burroughs imagines
an alternate utopian reality developed by swashbuckling homosexual
pirates in CITIES OF THE RED NIGHT.
The enduring myth of Jason and the Argonauts is the supreme example
of a maritime MANNERBUND, but instead of working as a free, independent
collective, the Argonauts have a very specific function to perform
for their civilization. So in the figure of Jason is combined the
MANNERBUND archetype and the Faustian/ Promethean archetypes of
the West.]
Normans were also notorious for their savage efficiency in battle,
again a likely hang-over from the brutal MANNERBUND of their Scandinavian
ancestors.
Robin Hood and his merry band of outlaw men living in the greenwood
forest is perhaps the furthest we can track the traditional MANNERBUND
into the very early modern period. As the leading authority on this
people’s hero states, “One final characteristic of the early tales
smacks of the household and of service: none of the outlaws has
a family. Much is a miller’s son, but there is nothing of the miller.
The treacherous prioress of Kirklees, Robin’s near-of-kin or cousin,
is the only relative in the whole cycle. There are no parents, no
wives and no children. Apart from the prioress, women scarcely figure
at all.” “There is no Maid Marian. Marian only made her way into
the legends via the May Games and that not certainly until the sixteenth
century. It was not simply that Robin’s devotion to the Virgin Mother
left no room for other women. It saw rather that there was no place
for them in the context of the tales.” (J.C. Holt, ROBIN HOOD, Thames
& Hudson London 1989). Of course Will Scarlet, Much the miller’s
son and Little John are in there from the start!
Mannerbund in the future
By the end of the Nineteenth century, the process of abstracting
MANNERBUND from the real world to the ideal world, to the realms
of European Romanticism, was completed. In the Anglo-Saxon world
we have the theories of Edward Carpenter (“Towards Democracy”) and
the poems of Walt Whitman, notably the Calamus cycle in The Leaves
of Grass. Here, Whitman talks of an “adhesive love” between men
to build an organic, non-individualistic American republic.
A brave, more practical attempt was made by Hans Bluher and Wilhelm
Jansen, founders of the Wandervogel during the Kaiserreich. Bluher’s
romantic idealism was to meet with great success in his homeland
over the following decades, cross-fertilizing with the unbroken
spirit of returning WWI troops in the Freikorps. Lord Baden Powell
watered-down many of Bluher’s ideas for a tame, still sadly Xian,
British Empire. He also made the error of believing that ideals
of honour, bravery and adventure were for malleable youths only
and not full-grown men.
Perhaps the only place in Western culture where the MANNERBUND still
thrives is also the most hopeful for the future; in the stories
of Robert Heinlein, William Burroughs, comics and the internet:
science fiction.

Aryan Futurism: The Vision
Below is the transcript of my talk given at the New Right meeting
in central London on 28 May 2005:
Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen. It’s a great, hot, sunny afternoon,
which means it’s clear, and when it’s clear we can see further.
So I want to see how far we can see. First I’ll talk about where
we could be, what it will look like, why Aryan, why Futurist, and
why Imperium - and then I’ll discuss how we could get there: how
to re-align folk away from the current corrosive human rights agenda
and towards European nationalism and growth.
First – a journey to the absolute elsewhere. Imagine you’re flying
high above the Eurasian continent – maybe in a spacecraft. Below,
you see primeval forest, as our ancestors knew it, with bears, wolves
and the lustrous beauty of Mother Nature restored. Every so often
you catch sight one of the crystalline structures, perhaps kilometres
high, which stud the verdant landscape from Galway Bay to the Kamchatka
peninsular.
These crystalline structures are Arologies, originally imagined
by Italian architect Paulo Soleri way back in the 1960s. They are
cities, like the future-metropolis in Logan’s Run, or Arthur C.
Clarke’s CITY AND THE STARS. Arcologies are completely self-sufficient
and ecologically sound. They generate their own power using nuclear
fission or, ideally, fusion. Healthy food is produced in plankton
and algae factories, while genetically engineered protein means
we no longer have to kill sentient animals for food, and we can
eat meat with a clear conscience. Arcologies are connected to one
another via trans-continental tunnels and air and space ports, and
built in such a way that in the event of a planetary catastrophe
they can leave Earth and survive in deep space.
Anyone who has not volunteered to perform duties for the State
is allowed to leave and return to the Arcology at any stage. They
can only take with them whatever food, clothing and weapons they
can carry, then find a pleasant spot to build a log cabin, and live
the life of a trapper. I imagine that the valleys closer to the
Arcology would be more populous than those further away, and that
a sort of frontier justice would prevail, something like the environment
described in William Burroughs PLACE OF DEAD ROADS. Beyond this
hinterland would extend the real wilderness. Our Germanic ancestors
had a strong belief in the power of “Utgard” – “the area outside”
– the area uninhabited by Gods or men, as opposed to “Midgard” –
“Middle Earth” – the civilized world of Gods, men and order. Utgard
is where Gods and men face their greatest battles. This “Utgard”
is a testing ground for youths from the Arcology, to prove themselves
in initiation ceremonies, rituals, drinking bouts, man-hunts and
survival skills in the wilderness. Traditional societies have no
trouble in channeling youthful boisterousness; Nu Labor hasn’t got
a clue and calls them “teenage yobbos”.
Inside the Arcologies, the order and authority of the Imperium
prevails. Traditionalist thinkers have given less thought to technological
automation than to other, perhaps more pressing matters, but 2 who
have are Alexander Raven Thomson and Oswald Mosley, both of the
British Union of Fascists. I think in some ways the BUF can act
as a more inspiring model than the interwar continental systems,
as the liberalism and Humpty Dumpty economics of 30’s British Empire
is not so dissimilar to the problems all Europeans face now, whereas
Italy and Germany faced specific challenges particular to their
time. Thomson was the BUF corporate state theorist, one of whose
ideas was motorways, and who won almost 25% of the vote in Bethnal
Green in 1937. In his book Civilisation as Divine Superman (1932)
Thomson wrote, “civilisation could avoid decay if it adopted as
its model the communal organisation of Maeterlinck’s insect communities,
‘super-organisms’ in which individual differentiation took place
within a “communal spirit shared by every member of the hive”.
Mosley himself believed the solution to the challenge of automation
was the “wage-price mechanism” and autarky, or, as he put it, “the
insulated self-contained area freed from the world cost system”.
Economics is from Ancient Greek and simply means “household management”:
at its most basic it means being able to provide the material life-support
for a society – such things as food, warmth, shelter, and (I would
argue) access to communications technology. I believe production
of material goods should be limited, and rationed by the State exercising
a Command Economy. The economy operates on the level of society,
not culture. I don’t think economics is as important as politics,
and nothing for serious-minded men to fall out over. There are lots
of reasons why I personally believe a planned economy is superior
to a free-market economy, but here are the main 3:
1. A command economy is the most efficient way of providing a population
with the basic essentials for living. Economies of scale, standardization
and above all automation would free vast numbers of workers from
the meaningless toil of financial and other service industries,
to pursue full-time their own individual interests, joining sports
clubs, studying, or just drinking and smoking and hanging out with
friends. Of course, if a person wants to do something worthwhile,
then they can volunteer for State service in a field to which they
are suited.
The Neolithic agricultural revolution greatly increased our power
over nature, but at the cost of a life of drudgery in the fields
for millions of peasants, trapped under the limited horizons of
Bronze Age technology. Anthropologists estimate that hunter-gatherers
of the stone age only spent about an hour a day working for their
survival: the rest was play and contemplation. The industrial revolution
increased our ability to manipulate our environment even further,
thereby eliminating agricultural labour and, currently, manufacturing
labour.
We’ve already had the technology to make this automated utopia
a reality for a few decades; what’s stopping us from advancing is
consumer capitalism, which is above all a psychological control
system. It is propped up by advertising and mass-media to keep everyone’s
snouts in the trough. As Buddha (a great Aryan) discovered, the
cause of suffering is desire, and desire for more and more material
goods (i.e. consumer capitalism) causes more and more suffering
and is unsustainable, which leads to my second reason for supporting
a command economy:
My second argument is that as limited resources dwindle, we have
the option of either rationing, which would lead to the introduction
of a planned economy, or leaving the free market as it is. Leaving
things as they are would mean only the very richest, most treacherous
plutocrats would survive, and they are the very same gangsters (the
Windsors, the Bushes etc.) who collaborated the most in destroying
Aryan civilization.
Thirdly, command economies seem to be the best at providing military
security and guaranteeing technological advance. Britain was forced
to adopt a planned economy during WW1 and WW2 to ensure survival.
Germany pre-1945 was the most technologically advanced country in
the world, the Soviet Union was the first space power and the Americans
only got a man to the moon thanks to the state-supported military-industrial
complex and Werner von Braun.
To sum up automation in the words of Ernst Junger in Der Arbeiter
(1932) “Beyond the democracy of labour, in which the contents of
the familiar world will be remoulded and reworked, the outlines
can be made out of forms of State which are not comparable to anything
that has so far existed. However, what can be predicted is that
neither work nor labour will exist in any sense that we have known.
The discovery of work as a constituent of abundance and freedom
still lies before us…The true contest is for the discovery of a
new and unknown world – a discovery more destructive and pregnant
with consequences than the discovery of America. It is only with
awe that we can look on as man strives to sharpen weapons and hearts
in the midst of chaotic upheavals, and see how prepared he is to
renounce any simple way out which leads to mere happiness.
To participate in this process and to serve its cause: this is the
task with which we are charged.”
We’ve had a glimpse into the future – now I’d like to talk about
why Aryan, and why an Imperium.
Only a radical Imperium based on traditional Aryan concepts of
synthesis can do justice to the European Faustean spirit. To quote
Guillaume Faye, “The old European tradition was always modernist…We
don’t stupidly revolt against contemporary Europe, but remain loyal
to that which has always been part of Europe”. He is right: the
dead hand of 18th century liberalism, which was superseded by continental
European political and philosophical thinkers over 2 centuries ago,
still clenches the world ever-tighter in its rigor mortis grip.
In MAN AND TECHNICS Spengler wrote, “Now [man] meant not merely
to plunder [nature] of her materials, but to enslave and harness
her very forces so as to multiply his own strength. This monstrous
and unparalleled idea is as old as the Faustean Culture itself.
Already in the tenth century we meet with technical constructions
of a wholly new sort. Already the steam engine, the steamship, and
the air machine are in the thoughts of Roger Bacon and Albertus
Magnus. And many a monk busied himself in his cell with the idea
of Perpetual Motion.
This last idea never thereafter let go its hold on us, for success
would mean the final victory over “God or Nature”, a small world
of one’s own creation moving like the great world, by virtue of
its own forces and obeying the hand of man alone. To build a world
oneself, to be oneself God – that is the Faustian inventor’s dream,
and from it has sprung all our designing and re-designing of machines
to approximate as nearly as possible the unattainable limit of perpetual
motion.”
English philosopher Francis Bacon eloquently expresses the necessary
violence of the Faustian spirit in his FABLE OF PROTEUS – which
is all about struggle:
“If any skilful minister of nature shall apply force to nature,
and by design torture and vex it in order to its annihilation, it
on the contrary, being brought to this necessity, changes and transforms
itself into a strange variety of shapes and appearances; for nothing
but the power of the Creator can annihilate it or truly destroy
it… And that method of torturing or detaining will prove the most
effective and expeditious which makes use of manacles and fetters,
i.e lays hold and works upon matter in the extremist degree”.
These words remind me of the CERN particle accelerator in Switzerland
with its huge magnetic forces.
According to the Perennial Tradition, we are consciousness fallen
into matter. Aryan civilizations’ creation of technology, Descarte’s
“quantifying reductionism” and scientific materialism is a further
involution, or sinking, into matter. Our consciousness delves deeper
into the Matrix of matter, but I believe this to be Western civilization’s
destiny and also our escape. Tradition also tells us that the switch
from the dark age, the Kali Yuga, to the Golden Age, the Krita Yuga,
is instantaneous. My own guess is that it could be realized with
Faster-than-Light travel through the light-barrier, culminating
in something like the light-show at the end of Kubrik’s 2001, or
the sphere in Event Horizon. W.H. Muller’s 1995 book Polaria explores
the esoteric and spiritual side of FTL travel. Of course it may
be some other, at present unimaginable, transgression of technology,
or spiritual discipline, that facilitates the next stage of our
evolution. But when we do this, we can be sure we become something
beyond human. An effect of FTL travel is that the traveller exists
in all places at all times, which is one of the definitions of a
God.
In the famous words of Nietzsche, "Man is a rope, tied between
beast and overman--a rope over an abyss...
What is great in man is that he is a bridge and not an end: what
can be loved in man is that he is an overture and a going under...”
Now for the political structure…why an Imperium
Politics is about the direction we want our civilization to grow,
and the structures necessary to ensure that growth. For that, I
think it’s best to read Indo-Europeanists such as Mircea Eliade,
Carl Jung, Alain Danielou and Georges Dumezil who have studied archetypal
recurring patterns of Aryan power and Jean Markele who emphasises
the importance of synthesis and movement in the Ancient Celtic worldview,
similar to Heraclitus.
Aryan Imperium must be a synthesis of that ultimate political polarity
– a stable, authoritarian Imperium (represented by Ice) v freedom,
creative imagination and the Italian Futurist Marinetti’s idea of
speed (all of which can all be characterized as Fire). It needs
to be a resolution between settler v nomads, mountain men v mariners.
To translate into mythological terms it’s the combination of Muspellheim
v Nifleheim which leads to the creation of Ymir, father of Gods
and Giants.
Integral to any Aryan Imperium worthy of the name is the Tripartite
structure. Alby Stone, another Indo-Europeanist, best describes
this trifunctional society as analogous to the human body, the different
qualities represented by head, arms and torso.
My own suggestion is this: Emperor rules, in consultation with
a Round Table of 12 advisors (like the 12 Olympian Gods or the 12
high Gods of Asgard). All posts are elected and, once elected, last
for life. Election is open to all Aryans who have completed a voluntary,
time-unspecified service of duty to the State (e.g. in the Armed
Forces or hospitals). There’s more about a future volunteerist state
in Robert Heinlein’s STARSHIP TROOPERS.
Another useful political concept, current in the European Union
but originally developed by the Catholic Church Is Subsidiarity.
The tenet holds that nothing should be done by a larger and more
complex organization which can be done as well by a smaller and
simpler organisation.
The Imperium has as its primary directive the evolution and progress
of Aryan mankind, both as an individual and as a species. The Empire
collectively is committed to scientific and technical innovation;
evolution of the Overman, and guarantees to provide and maintain
all platforms necessary for its development: unlimited resources
for scientific research and freedom of speech, education and access
to participate encouraged for all Aryans.
You can have an authoritarian State which exhorts free speech;
the two are not incompatible. The Kaiserreich is good example. Bismark
maintained the noble German tradition of Gedankenfreiheit by letting
newspapers publish whatever they wanted and the State could only
act retrospectively by suing in the courts.
I think that all Aryans in the Imperium will be freer than ever
before, more free possibly than we can imagine. The whole objective
of the Imperium is to liberate the creative imagination of each
individual, thereby adding their own unique contribution to the
ever-expanding empire. Industrial automation is the technological
foundation for this ultimate state of freedom.
The principal and defining social relationship of the Imperium
is the comrade. Men and women are encouraged to treat each other
as brother and sister, homosexuality would be no more remarkable
than it was in pagan Europe. We need a re-balancing of the interests
of the nation and race against those of the nuclear family. I believe
Heinrich Schurtz, author of Alterklassen und Mannerbunde is right,
“Schurtz emphasised that the social impulse, the drive to create
communities and political institutions, was reserved only to the
male. The ‘instinctive sympathy’ between men was the precondition
for social life”. Julius Evola, Adolf Brand and Hans Bluher all
developed ideas about how the domestic, feminine, comfortable, later
bourgeois nuclear family is antithetical to Aryan achievement. For
the meantime, all of Europe faces de-population, and replacement
by non-Aryans. I’ve read about towns in Germany that have managed
to reverse the trend by giving tax-breaks and other encouragements
to larger families. Abortion-on-demand of white babies must be outlawed
across the continent. The so-called “pensions crisis” is yet another
lie designed to keep the public cowered while the Establishment
promotes third world immigration. It is easily solved with automation
and a planned economy.
A word about language Proto-Indo-European, which scholars have
been researching for 150 years now, is the ideal future Lingua Franca,
with national languages taught in schools as second languages. Nearly
all modern languages in Europe evolved from Indo-European, so not
only would we learn the roots and thought processes involved in
our own language, but we’d also be learning it for all European
languages, making them easier to speak.
Territorial Extent
Eurasia
I imagine an Aryan Imperium stretching from Reykjavik to Vladivostok,
including the whole of the European continent, Russia and Siberia.
In particular, Aryan Futurists recognize the brutality of Hitlerism
against our Slav brothers, and the continual undermining of the
Slavic folk by the Western plutocracies and alien infiltration.
There are 3 reasons why I feel especially optimistic about Russia
and eastern Europe. Firstly, the region has a history of Aryan spirituality
and culture going back millennia. Secondly, the region has the greatest
concentration anywhere of undiluted Aryans. Thirdly, recent political
developments, such as the increasing popularity of Eurasianism and
National Bolshevism demonstrate burgeoning biocultural, racial and
cultural awareness. Russia must be allowed to take the leading role
as a nation in building the Imperium, if she so desires.
From north to south, we can imagine an Aryan homeland extending
southward from the North Pole to around 34-36 degrees latitude.
That would include Gibraltar, Malta, Crete and Cyprus, but exclude
Jerusalem and the Middle East. (I believe this particular exclusion
is vital, but others may disagree). The only salient non-Aryan civilizations
that extend a little north of this latitude are the Oriental civilizations
of China, Korea and Japan. Oriental civilization has a separate
destiny from that of the West, we are on different roads, so we
should secure their borders with the Imperium amicably, and leave
them to their own fate.
Arctic Citadel
To avoid any lingering petty nationalist quarrels, a new capital
city can be built in geodesic orbit above the North Pole. Hyperborean
Aryans have a prior historic claim to the North Pole (Thule), demonstrated
by Carl Jung and Mircea Eliade.
Space above the Polar Axis to be reserved for a 4-square castellated
crystal space city, as envisaged in Aryan mythology from Arianrhod’s
Fort in Celtic folklore to Mount Meru in Hinduism.
“If you build it, they will come”. You may recognize this quote
from Field of Dreams. What I mean by it - is that a civilization
needs a goal, a destination to mobilize around in order to demonstrate
it’s true greatness. For the Romans it was Pax Augustus and the
Golden Age celebrated by Virgil, for the Ancient Egyptians the building
of the pyramids, and for the Germans a 1,000 year empire. Goethe
tells us that great events cast their shadow before them, and I
believe the Aryan mythos, which locates the gods of Asgard at the
North Pole, is the shadow of that great event that still lies before
us. That event is the transformation of Man into God.
Ringing the Arctic Ocean is a highly desirable consequence of a
Eurasian, and eventually circumpolar, Aryan Imperium. If the Arctic
was ice-free, then it would have by far the busiest shipping lanes
in the world, and correspondingly massive ports and cities. All
the other oceans and seas in the world would become backwaters.
European sailors have always understood the need for Arctic trade,
from the Vikings and Hanseatic League to the adventurers searching
for a Northwest passage from the 15th to 19th centuries.
Politically and ideologically, the United States is the catastrophic
result of a failed liberal-humanist experiment by 18th century Europeans.
Even worse, many of the original white settlers had been driven
out of Europe because of their extreme Christian fundamentalism…a
fundamentalism that lives on today in the Red Republican states
that voted for George W. Bush, and also in their Christian Identity
nationalist groups.
If Canada and at least parts of the United States opt to join the
Imperium, then we surround the Arctic Ocean completely and it becomes
a “mare nostrum” (our sea) in the same way that the Mediterranean
became “mare nostrum” for the Romans.
The scientific consensus is that the Arctic will be ice-free by
the end of the century, but I’d like to think that by 2100 our technology
would have made maritime navigation irrelevant, except for hobbyists;
instead we can use airships and inter-continental tunnels for transport.
The Polar Axis City will be the launch-pad for the Aryan Space
Empire (which happily has the acronym ASE=from race of Germanic
Gods), incorporating the terrestrial Imperium stretching across
Eurasia and the Arctic, additional strategic locations on Earth,
especially on the Equator for satellite launches/ space elevators,
and of course any planets, satellites, planetary systems and regions
of space that we occupy. Equatorial bases would be negotiated in
friendly consultation with Chinese, Japanese, Indians, Latin Americans
and any other culture that survives the collapse of the plutocratic
New World Order.
GREEN – HOW TO GET THERE
Political Futurist Party September 1918 Rome “intuits present needs
and articulates precisely the consciousness of the whole race in
its purging revolutionary momentum. The party can be joined by all
Italians, men or women, of any class or age, even if artistic and
literary concepts are beyond them”.
How to get there. Our great advantage is that people know this
stuff instinctively through what Michael Moynihan has called meta-genetics.
Georges Sorel said we need a myth to mobilize the folk, and I say
what better myth than the true one, the ones that speak of Aryan
origins and destiny, the one that every Aryan knows in their blood.
The French post-modernist Paul Virilo has emphasised the importance
of being physically in a place to force change, in his book Speed
and Politics. It’s what he calls Dromology, getting people onto
the streets, as in the French Revolution or unemployed Germans after
1929-30.
I believe the next step would be to establish “Aryan cultural centres”
in the heart of every town and city across the continent. These
centres would be much more than just offices – they would have barrack
dormitories, bars, sports facilities, libraries, temples or a pantheon
to all the Aryan gods (which could also be used as a bar), as well
as offices with IT for communications/ propaganda. Rural Cultural
centres could provide their urban counterparts with free, organic
food, in exchange for new recruits and their labour. I think it’s
better to concentrate resources on that sort of practical project
(as the Arktion Federation is doing with the Jomsburg farm project),
rather than wasting resources on elections and lost deposits. After
all, south London has some sort of immigrant legal rights drop-in
shop or refugee community centre in every high street, but nothing
for the people who built this city.
The function of these cultural centres is to promote Aryan culture,
in its broadest sense, and defend our people. Oswald Mosley had
something similar in the 1930s (sadly without the pagan temples!)
which he called “Black Houses”:
“In the autumn of 1933 it [the B.U.F.] acquired the lease of Whiteland
Teachers Training College in the King’s Road, Chelsea, which became
know as Black House. It was a cross between an administrative headquarters,
social club and army camp. Other Black Houses in the main urban
centres were formed on the same model. In the original one, hundreds
of members of I Squad or the London Defence Force slept, ate and
lived to the sound of the bugle summoning them for reveille (re-valley)
meal-times, parades and lights out. They trained in gymnastics,
boxing and judo. They roared out in their military-looking vans
to defend speakers or rescue them in trouble.”
Instead of judo, I’d suggest some native martial art as researched
by Pennick and others.
Recruitment: sci-fi conventions, teenage games magazines, gay scene
I think it’s very important, not just symbolically, that these
meeting are taking place in the heart of the parasitic Leviathan,
a founder-capital of the New World Order and home to Winston Churchill
and the Rothschilds. As you know, London is one of the citadels
of multi-racism, global capitalism and everything we hate, and has
been for centuries, since Henry VIII, Oliver Cromwell and especially
since the 1688 Glorious Revolution and the foundation of the Bank
of England. My feeling is if a strong, intelligent, positive Aryan
movement can start here and succeed, under the noses of our foes,
then it can succeed anywhere.
Finally, I’d like to end with a quote from Ortega y Gasset, “Europeans
do not know how to live unless they are engaged in some great enterprise.
When this is lacking, they grow petty and feeble and their souls
disintegrate.”
Aryan Futurism is for everyone who feels the fire of Aryan aspiration
and achievement in their blood. Above all, it is about action for
the future.
