Equality

Twitter demonstrates the SJW commitment to one of the five fundamental pillars of their social justice ideology.

We’ve investigated and suspended the account you reported as it was found to be participating in abusive behavior.

Point 7: The Alt Right is anti-equalitarian. It rejects the idea of equality for the same reason it rejects the ideas of unicorns and leprechauns, noting that human equality does not exist in any observable scientific, legal, material, intellectual, sexual, or spiritual form.

Equality does not exist and it is very easy to prove that no one who claims equality to be a moral principle actually believes in it. Equality is nothing more than a rhetorical weapon utilized by the Left in order to win the moral level of war. Unless you reject it and refuse to kowtow before it, you are handing the Left power over you.

That is why Martin van Creveld described it as “the impossible quest” in his history of the concept.

Mitä Vaihtoehto-oikeisto on

Tarkoitus on tarjota Vaihtoehto-oikeistolle filosofinen perusta, jota voidaan sitten kehittää.

  1. Vaihtoehto-oikeisto on oikeistoa niin amerikkalaisessa kuin eurooppalaisessakin mielessä.  Sosialistit eivät ole vaihtoehto-oikeistoa.  Suvaitsevaisto ei ole Vaihtoehto-oikeistoa.  Liberaalit eivät ole Vaihtoehto-oikeistoa.  Kommunistit, marxistit, marxilaiset, kulttuurimädättäjät saati kokoomuslaiset eivät ole Vaihtoehto-oikeistoa.
  2. Vaihtoehto-oikeisto on VAIHTOEHTO USA:n valtavirran konservatiiviselle liikkeelle. Se nojaa nimellisesti Russell Kirkin 10 Conservative Principlesiin, mutta on jäänyt ajastaan jälkeen ja rappeutunut lähinnä suvaitsevaiston haaraksi. Vaihtoehto-oikeisto on vaihtoehto myös libertarismille.
  3. Vaihtoehto-oikeisto ei ole luonteeltaan puolustava, vaan hylkää pyrkimyksen jaloon ja periaatteelliseen tappioon.  Se suuntaa eteenpäin ja on filosofiana hyökkäävä sanan kaikissa merkityksissä.  Vaihtoehto-oikeisto uskoo voittoon sinnikkyyden kautta, pysytellen harmoniassa tieteen, todellisuuden, kulttuurisen perinteen ja historian opetusten kanssa.
  4. Vaihtoehto-oikeisto kokee länsimaisen sivilisaation olevan inhimillitsen saavutusten huippu ja tukee sen kolmea perustusta: kristinuskoa, eurooppalaisia kansoja ja kreikkalais-roomalaista perintöä.
  5. Vaihtoehto-oikeisto on avoimesti ja vakaumuksellisesti nationalistinen.  Se kannattaa kaikkea nationalismia ja kaikkien kansojen oikeutta olemassaoloon homogeenisinä, puhtaana maahantulijoiden tai -hyökkääjien vaikutuksesta.
  6. Vaihtoehto-oikeisto vastustaa globalismia.  Se vastustaa kaikkia ryhmittymiä, jotka työskentelevät globalististen ideoiden tai tavoitteiden puolesta.
  7. Vaihtoehto-oikeisto vastustaa tasa-arvoa.  Se hylkää tasa-arvon käsitteen samasta syystä kuin se hylkää yksisarviset ja tontutkin.  Tasa-arvoa ihmisten välillä ei ole olemassa missään havaittavassa tieteellisessä, laillisessa, materiaalisessa, intellektuaalissa, seksuaalisessa tai hengellisessä mielessä.
  8. Vaihtoehto-oikeisto on tieteellisesti suuntautunutta.  Se oletusarvoisesti hyväksyy tieteellisen metodin tuottamat johtopäätökset samaan aikaan ymmärtäen a) että nämä johtopäätökset saanevat tulevaisuudessa korjauksia, ja b) että niin kutsuttu tieteellinen konsensus on altis korruptiolle, ja c) että niin kutsuttu tieteellinen konsensus ei perustu tieteellisyyteen, vaan demokratiaan, ja on siten itsessään epätieteellistä.
  9. Vaihtoehto-oikeisto uskoo, että identiteetti > kulttuuri > politiikka.   
  10. Vaihtoehto-oikeisto vastustaa minkään kansan valtaa alkuperäiskansan yli, erityisesti hallittujen kansojen suvereeneissa kotimaissa. Vaihtoehto-oikeisto vastustaa minkä tahansa vierasperäisen etnisen ryhmän liiallista vaikutusvaltaa missään yhteiskunnassa nepotismin, tribalismin tai muun keinon kautta.
  11. Vaihtoehto-oikeisto ymmärtää, että erilaisuus + läheisyys = sota.
  12. Vaihtoehto-oikeistoa ei kiinnosta mitä mieltä siitä ollaan.
  13. Vaihtoehto-oikeisto vastustaa kansainvälistä vapaakauppaa ja vapaan kaupan edellyttämää ihmisten vapaata liikkuvuutta.  Kansansisäisen vapaakaupan edut eivät todista kansainvälisen vapaakaupan eduista.
  14. Vaihtoehto-oikeisto tunnustaa velvollisuutemme turvata valkoisen kansan olemassaolo ja valkoisten lasten tulevaisuus.
  15. Vaihtoehto-oikeisto ei usko minkään rodun, kansallisuuden, kansan tai alalajin yleispätevään ylemmyyteen.  Kullakin rodulla, kansallisuudella, kansalla ja alalajilla on vahvuutensa ja heikkoutensa, ja niillä on suvereeni oikeus elää häiriöttä luonnollisessa kulttuurissaan.
  16. Vaihtoehto-oikeisto on filosofia, joka arvostaa rauhaa kansojen välillä ja vastustaa sotimista arvojen levittämiseksi. Se vastustaa myös pyrkimyksiä tuhota kansakuntia sodan, kansanmurhan, maahanmuuton tai geneettisen sulauttamisen kautta.

Suomennos on nopeasti tehty eikä ehkä sellaisena kummoinen, mutta bona fide lukemalla kohdat ymmärtänee vaivatta.  Jos joku haluaa korjailla kieliasua lukukelpoisemmaksi, voi parannusehdotuksia postailla kommenttiosioon.

Writing sundries

So, here is the bad news, the good news, and a few other things.

  1. There is no way I’m going to complete A SEA OF SKULLS, get it edited, and get it out before Christmas. It’s just not happening. Even if I downed tools on everyone else’s books, ignored Infogalactic, and only did one blog post a day, it would be cutting it close. And I’m not going to do any of those things.
  2. However, as someone observed that a) what I already have written is on the order of four times longer than other novels we publish, b) it’s arguably better than ATOB, and c) people have been waiting a long time for it, I was inspired to concoct a plan that I thought might be of interest to Selenoth fans.

You may recall George Martin won the 1997 Hugo Award for Best Novella for “Blood of the Dragon”, which was actually the Danerys chapters from A GAME OF THRONES. You may also note that Amazon permits the updating of ebook files.

So, I said to our Production Editor, what if we release a version of A SEA OF SKULLS that is somewhere between 100k and 120k words, sell it for a reduced price of $5.99, then update the file in the spring to the full 295k-word version and let everyone update the file, after which we’ll raise the price to the full $7.99 we intend to charge for the whole book? That will give all the early readers a discount as well as the chance to return to Selenoth before the end of the year, even if the full experience of Book Two will have to wait. He said, “I would go for that.” So, we decided to see what you think of the idea.

Anyhow, I’m sorry to disappoint you all in this regard, but it is an option. If you think it’s a good idea, let us know in the comments. If you think it’s a stupid idea, please feel free do the same. Regardless, I will promise that the full version a) will be finished and b) no one who buys the initial version will have to pay any more to get the rest of it. I’m not Scalzi and Castalia House is not Tor; I’m not going to divide it into 10 30k parts, sell them all for a dollar, then package them together and resell the whole thing to you again. If you buy the initial version, you’ll get the whole thing. Eventually.

However, I do have some good news regarding Selenoth. First, we have an audiobook in the works. The English narrator is warming up on the smaller books, but he does intend to tackle both A THRONE OF BONES and A SEA OF SKULLS in 2017. Second, both hardcover and paperback versions of A THRONE OF BONES will be available in time for Christmas. They’ll be monsters, running around 915 pages, case laminate for the hardcover, and slightly taller than the Marcher Lord editions. We’ll also be using Garamond for the font.

In other news, I’m happy to say that my next non-fiction book will be about the Alt-Right and it will be out before summer. I’m working with a co-writer whom I will not presently identify, but let’s just say it is going to be every bit as hard-hitting and relevant and accurate as SJWAL and Cuckservative.

And finally, I can promise a new John C. Wright novel before Christmas, possibly even before the end of this month. This is Book Three of Moth & Cobweb.

You may now proceed with your best Vox RR Day jokes….

Video review of SJWAL


“It’s the first time in my life I’ve ever read an entire book from cover to cover in one sitting…. it was that fantastic!”


In addition to the book, you may want to contemplate triggering an SJW with the SJWAL shirts. We’ve got a black one now, for the subtle “wait, what’s up with that” triggering, and the purple one for the direct splodey-head, how-dare-you effect.

Libertarian vs Alt-Right

Jeffrey Tucker highlights the differences:

To the cheers of alt-righters everywhere, those angry lords of the green frog meme who hurl edgy un-PC insults at everyone to their left, the Democratic nominee has put them on the map at long last. Specifically, she accused Donald Trump of encouraging and giving voice to their dark and dangerous worldview.

Let’s leave aside the question of whether we are talking about an emergent brown-shirted takeover of American political culture, or perhaps merely a few thousand sock-puppet social media accounts adept at mischievous trolling on Twitter. The key issue is that more than a few alt-rightists claim some relationship to libertarianism, at least at their intellectual dawning until they begin to shed their libertarianism later on.

What are the differences in outlook between alt-right ideology and libertarianism?

  1. The Driving Force of History
  2. Harmony vs. Conflict
  3. Designed vs. Spontaneous Order
  4. Trade and Migration
  5. Emancipation and Progress

It’s a pretty good comparison, although not entirely accurate about the Alt-Right and understandably biased towards libertarianism. Regardless, it serves as an effective delineator that suffices to explain why I, once one of the top 25 libertarians on the Internet, can no longer reasonably be described as a libertarian, Christian, nationalist, or otherwise.

It’s not that I am opposed to libertarian ideals. Quite to the contrary, I cherish them as deeply as I ever did. It is merely that events, and a deeper understanding of history, have caused me to conclude that libertarian ideals are as ultimately utopian and irrelevant as communist ideals, progressive ideals, and conservative ideals.

I was always a minarchist libertarian; I embraced libertarianism out of pessimism towards the government. But libertarianism has turned out to be nearly as economically ignorant as Marxism, and nearly as dangerous as Leninism, Nazism, or Maoism. Mass immigration, of the sort considerably more limited than that envisioned by the purist libertarians who correctly subscribe to open borders, has proven to be at least potentially as disastrous as any of those three historically infamous ideologies. Just how bad, we don’t know yet, because the scenario is still in the process of playing itself out.

The key difference between the Alt-Right and libertarianism is that libertarianism insists on the existence of Rational Man. The Alt-Right observes, to the contrary, that Man is an irrational, rationalizing creature. Where you fall on that question alone will logically dictate whether you ultimately side with the libertarians or the Alt-Right, if your ideals incline towards the libertarian.

Tucker writes: This similarity is historically contingent and largely superficial given the vast differences that separate the two worldviews. Does society contain within itself the capacity for self management or not? That is the question. 

To which the Alt-Right responds: Define society.

That being said, one intellectual subset of the Alt-Right could well be described as National Libertarianism, because, after all, once the nation has been sufficiently established and defended, it still has to decide how it will henceforth live.

GamerGhazi can’t cope

The ride never ends. Nor does the winning:

I’m sure many of you can relate to this, but since the double whammy of Brexit and Trump, I’m feeling extremely lost and upset and having some trouble coping with the new reality. I’ve been a long time lurker here and since this has always seemed like a supportive community, I thought I’d reach out for some advice.

I live in the stereotypical liberal bubble in a left-liberal city. I don’t have any friends or family or work colleagues who would have supported Trump, so I have struggled to understand how this has happened, or how ideas that have been our shared values since WWII have been shed in favour of what appears to me to be a resurgence of ethno-nationalistic fascism. That’s not to say I haven’t read widely on the subject, and at least intellectually now I can at least explain what has happened without believing that America and Britain have both gone through a massive swing towards racism, nativism, misogyny and hate, although I still believe that is part of the answer.

I’m terrified for for the state of the world. I’m afraid that the US will end up like Putin’s Russia, with 85% approval ratings, a watertight internal propaganda system and spiralling human rights abuses. I’m afraid that with America abandoning its (admittedly flawed in practice) ideals of spreading democracy and human rights across the world, that the sum total of human suffering will increase drastically. Already Trump is suspected to drop all talk of human rights from negotiations with China, limit support of NATO allies, as well as South Korea and Japan, and I’m terrified of a return to pre-20th century ‘might makes right’ international relations where the powerful will exploit and abuse the weak.

After the election I went to one of my favourite thinkers, Jonathon Haidt. This recent video of him inspired me to try to reach out to Trump supporters via Twitter and try to genuinely understand and empathise with them, and perhaps in turn have them empathise with me. After a couple of days of that I’ve all but given up, having repeatedly bashed my head against the brick wall of Infowars, international Jewish Globalist conspiracy, and a well that is now permanently poisoned against anything from the liberal intellectual tradition.

Now I’m more lost than ever. I’ve actually become ill from worry and feel like I’m now just compulsively online, trying to understand and explain and maybe find a light at the end of the tunnel. My question to you guys is: what are you doing to cope? Is there a place that people like us can go for mutual support? What’s the best way to stop this awful feeling of powerlessness and loss?

Wouldn’t it be TERRIBLE and THE WORST THING EVER if 85 percent of the American people approved of their leader? These morons don’t even listen to themselves, so why on Earth would they think we will?

This hapless individual has quite clearly learned nothing from “one of his favorite thinkers”. He still thinks that if only he lectures the Alt-Right on a liberal intellectual tradition that we know better than he does, we’ll come around to what can’t rightly be called his way of thinking. Say, rather, his way of parroting left-liberal dogma.

We know the liberal intellectual tradition, both the genuine one and its subsequent substitution. We reject them both.

An Equation of Almost Infinite Complexity


Today, Castalia House is pleased to announce a debut novel by J. Mulrooney, AN EQUATION OF ALMOST INFINITE COMPLEXITY.

When the devil moves in next door to Cooper Smith Cooper’s house, Cooper doesn’t know what to make of him at first. But when the unexpectedly neighborly Scratch helps the unemployed actuary find a job at a local insurance company with the help of some inside information into the activities of Death, Cooper decides the old devil might not be so bad after all. 


 The only problem, Cooper thinks, is how to conceal from his fellow actuaries his newfound ability to perfectly predict the time and place of people’s deaths. And then, there is also the small matter of the screams of his recently deceased neighbor coming from Scratch’s basement furnace to consider. 


 AN EQUATION OF ALMOST INFINITE COMPLEXITY is a sardonically funny debut novel from J. Mulrooney.

This was one of the first novels I signed to Castalia House, and it has been nearly two years in the making. The genre is a little hard to describe, as it has fantasy elements, satirical elements, and literary elements. I would put it somewhere between The Missionaries and Loki’s Child; it’s not quite as funny as the former, not anywhere nearly as pedal-to-the-metal insane as the latter. It is intelligent, witty, and has a peculiar sensibility all its own; there is, perhaps, just a little John Irving maple syrup flavor to it.

Our production editor loved this one and says it is his favorite of all the novels we’ve published to date. Regardless, it certainly has one of the best first lines since Larry Correia’s first Monster Hunter novel.

When the devil moved in next door, Cooper Smith Cooper had the same question everyone else did: how would it affect the property values?

Steps ahead

It’s rather amusing to see how the God-Emperor Ascendant no sooner gets criticized for something nonsensical by the Left than his actions obviate the basis for their criticism:

Vice President-elect Mike Pence reportedly ordered the removal of all lobbyists from president-elect Donald Trump’s transition team, The Wall Street Journal wrote on Tuesday night.

The decision was one of Pence’s first since formally taking over the team’s lead role. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie was abruptly dismissed from the post last week.

Critics have excoriated Trump for including lobbyists, Washington insiders, and Republican Party veterans among his team, suggesting it contradicts the anti-establishment message that defined his campaign.

“[Americans] do not want corporate executives to be the ones who are calling the shots in Washington,” Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren said earlier Tuesday. “What Donald Trump is doing is that he’s putting together a transition team that’s full of lobbyists — the kind of people he actually ran against,” she said.

Will Fauxcahauntas praise Trump for actually draining the swamp? Of course not! Because Warren isn’t anti-establishment, she was just grabbing what she mistakenly thought was a useful club with which to hit Trump.

But, as usual, the God-Emperor Ascendant is several steps ahead of his bumbling opposition. As entertaining as the Obama administration was, the Trump administration promises to be even more so, albeit in an entirely different way.

Then, for a night cap, Trump proceeded to upset the entire press corps by going out to dinner with his family without inviting them as is apparently traditional. And received a standing ovation when he walked into the steak house.

The mainstream media think Trump is a madman and in disarray because they’ve never seen this level of competence in action before. One thing that is amazing about the God-Emperor Ascendant is the speed with which he acts once he decides that someone is not up to fulfilling their responsibilities to his liking. Never forget, this is a man who changed campaign managers THREE TIMES in the course of a campaign, and won. He didn’t win DESPITE changing them, he won BECAUSE he changed them.

Rogers was told that all team members picked by Christie were being ousted, The Journal reported, citing a source familiar with the situation. 

Translation: settle down, everyone. Trump has no intention of letting the neocons or the GOPe interfere with his administration. That doesn’t mean there won’t be anyone from the status quo on his team; many individuals have legitimate and relevant experience that could be of genuine utility to him. But it’s pretty clear already that if they get out of line or attempt to exert any undue influence on him, they won’t be there long.

Trump likes to test people and give them enough rope to hang themselves. My guess, and it is nothing more than that, is that Chris Christie gave him certain assurances, then promptly went ahead and violated them as he tried to impose status quo shackles on the God-Emperor Ascendant, thereby prompting the house-cleaning. It wouldn’t surprise me at all to learn Donald Trump Jr. was somehow involved in that process. One senses an uncompromising and merciless hand in all of this.

Vad den alternativa högern är

I syfte att lägga en grund för althögerns filosofi som andra kan bygga vidare på.

1. Den alternativa högern tillhör den politiska högern i såväl amerikansk som europeisk bemärkelse. Socialister är inte althöger. Progressiva är inte althöger. Liberaler är inte althöger. Kommunister, marxister, kulturmarxister och neokonservativa är inte althöger.

2. Althögern är ett ALTERNATIV till den huvudfåra av amerikansk konservatism som nominellt förkroppsligas i Russel Kirks tio konservativa principer, men som i verkligheten har urartat till progressivitet. Det är också ett alternativ till liberalism och libertarianism.

3. Althögern är inte defensiv och förkastar den ädla och principfasta förlustens koncept. Det är en framåtblickande, offensiv filosofi i varje betydelse av den senare termen. Althögern tror på seger genom uthållighet och på att fortsatt harmonisera med vetenskap, verklighet, kulturella traditioner och de läxor man kan dra av historien.

4. Althögern anser att den västerländska civilisationen utgör de mänskliga prestationernas höjdpunkt och stöder dess tre grundläggande pelare: kristendomen, de europeiska nationerna och det grekisk-romerska arvet.

5. Althögern är öppet och uttalat nationalistisk. Den stöder all nationalism och alla nationers rätt att existera, enhetligt och oanfrätt av utländsk invasion eller immigration.

6. Althögern är antiglobalistisk. Den motsätter sig alla grupperingar som arbetar för globala idéer och mål.

7. Althögern är antiegalitär. Den förkastar idén om jämlikhet av samma skäl som den förkastar idéer om enhörningar, tomtar och troll; mänsklig jämlikhet existerar inte i någon vetenskaplig, legal, materiell, sexuell eller spirituell bemärkelse.

8. Althögern förlitar sig på den vetenskapliga metoden. Den accepterar nuvarande slutsatser som följer av tillämpningen av denna metod, men förstår att a) dessa slutsatser kan komma att förändras i framtiden, b) att vad som kallas vetenskapligt belagt kan vara korrupt och c) att så kallad vetenskaplig konsensus inte baserar sig på den vetenskapliga metoden utan på demokrati och följaktligen är ovetenskaplig.

9. Althögern anser att identitet > kultur > politik.

10. Althögern motsätter sig styre över eller dominans av någon ursprunglig etnisk grupp av någon annan, i all synnerhet i den dominerade folkgruppens eget hemland. Althögern motsätter sig oproportionerligt inflytande för varje icke inhemsk etnisk grupp, oavsett om det beror på nepotism, stamlojaliteter eller något annat medel.

11. Althögern förstår att mångfald + närhet = krig.

12. Althögern bryr sig inte om vad du tycker om den.

13. Althögern förkastar såväl internationell frihandel som den fria rörlighet av folk som den internationella frihandeln kräver. Inhemsk frihandels fördelar är inget bevis på internationell frihandels motsvarighet.

14. Althögern anser att vi måste säkra de vita folkens existens och en framtid för vita barn.

15. Althögern tror inte på någon allmän överlägsenhet för någon ras, någon nation, något folk eller någon folkgrupp. Varje ras, nation, folk eller folkgrupp har sina egna styrkor och svagheter och åtnjuter den oinskränkta rätten att leva i enlighet med den egna kultur den föredrar.

16. Althögern är en filosofi som värdesätter fred mellan de olika folken i världen och motsätter sig krig i syfte att påtvinga något folk främmande värderingar samt varje försök att utrota enskilda folk genom krig, folkmord, immigration eller genetisk assimilation.
TL;DR: Althögern är en västerländsk ideologi som förfäktar vetenskap, historia, verklighet och varje genetisk nations inneboende rätt att existera och styra sig själv i enlighet med sina egna intressen.

An Alt-Tech Convergence

This is the good kind of convergence, not SJW convergence. I’m delighted to be able to say that the latest version of Brave, 0.12.9, now features Infogalactic as a built-in search engine. You can either make it the default through Settings: Search or you can access it directly in the URL bar by typing :i, then whatever you want to search for.

For example, typing :i vox day will take you directly to the Vox Day page on Infogalactic.

Another new feature is the new tab page that shows you how many trackers/ads are blocked with Brave, and thus how much time you save when browsing/loading pages

Download Brave 0.12.9 here.

As for Infogalactic, we’re still working the phase one speedup. Figure three more weeks before we’re able to implement that.
