On Power
1. Power is defined by ‘who rules’
2. Mosca’s Law: the organised 100 will always defeat the disorganised 1000.
3. ‘Who says organisation, says oligarchy’
4. There is no genuine separation of powers.
5. There are no neutral institutions.
6. Rule of law is a myth: power is always ‘decisionist’.
7. Power seeks to eliminate rival castles.
8. Power wants to be seen.
9. Power must coordinate.
10. Culture is downstream from law.
11. Ideology is downstream of and a post-hoc justification for power and the actions of power.
12. Ideology is a mechanism through which power generates consensus to make the exercise of force unnecessary.
13. Power can generate its own subversion as a form of containment.
14. Containment is generally more effective than oppression at maintaining power.
15. The disorganised masses are passive, feminine, and easily manipulated in all times and all places.
16. Revolutions will only occur when power has not the will or the means to maintain itself.
17. Any new regime will be established only by the most organised available alternative elite.
18. A political formula is an ideological ‘top line’ that justifies sovereignty (‘BS BS, BS BS, therefore we rule’).
19. A political formula cannot brook an ‘and’.
20. ‘Clear them out’ is the only political formula that can unite dissidents against the current ruling class.
On General Principles
21. Ethnic differences are real.
22. Ethnic in-group preference has greater explanatory power than individual merit at a societal level.
23. Even if culture is downstream from law and ideology is downstream from power, the culture and ideology generated by those in power (‘who rules’) will embody their innate characteristics and interests as dictated by ethnos.
24. Civilisation is incommunicable.
25. Therefore, no civilisation can survive multiculturalism for long.
26. Progressivism is not simply wrong-headed, but evil.
27. There can be no compromising with evil.
28. What is called ‘Progress’ in most cases is entropy and a sign of moral decline.
29. The current elites in the West, who are totally committed to progressivism, are beyond redemption and must be replaced or else the entire system must collapse.
30. There is no meaningful difference between the establishment parties – Democrat and Republican, Labour and Conservative – these represent two wings of a ‘uniparty’ who differ only in the speed at which they wish to accelerate progressivism.
31. Liberalism is an entropic force with few if any redeeming features.
32. Democracy is an entropic force with no redeeming features whatsoever.
33. No progressive successes in history — for example the Civil Rights Act 1964, or the institution of gay marriage — are permanent and all ‘liberal priors’ are ripe to be questioned and ultimately destroyed.
34. There are no meaningful distinctions among the government, the civil service, the legal apparatus, corporations, NGOs, the media, academia, or captured churches – these represent eight tentacles of the same monstrous progressive ‘octopus’ whose only role is to be torn apart and destroyed.
35. Libertarianism has almost nothing to offer the current predicament and is a discredited political philosophy since it fundamentally misrecognises the problem.
36. The Boomer Truth Regime (BTR) refers to the episteme under which we have been suffering since 1945.
37. The ultimate evil in the BTR is the mid-century Germans.
38. The ultimate good in the BTR is unlimited individual self-expression.
39. The official doctrine of the BTR is ‘antifascism’ defined in the most expansive way imaginable to refer to all that is traditional.
40. Mainstream politics in the BTR is maintained as ‘kayfabe’ with storylines, babyfaces and heels.
On History
41. Human nature does not change.
42. History follows a cyclical pattern of rise and fall.
43. Civilisations are like organisms which live and then die.
44. Therefore, all things must pass, including our current civilisation which is in the ‘winter’ phase of its cycle; we live in the ashes of civilisation.
45. We, the Children of the Winter, cannot be pretend to be the Children of the Spring.
46. Thus, all we can do is prepare the road for the Spring to do our best to ensure it will be a ‘good’ Spring.
47. History is made by exceptional men of action who override ‘system’ or ‘ideology’ to impose their will on the world.
48. The ‘spirit’ or ‘energy’ of a people are more decisive than their beliefs and ideas in the struggle for survival.
49. ‘Spirit’ or ‘energy’ may be ignited for a time by exceptional leaders and men of action whose beliefs are less important than their vitality.
50. Assume anything you were taught about history in formal education was propaganda designed to foster, at best, the idea that liberal democracy is an enlightened ‘end state’ for history, and at worst, social democracy, or socialism as the ‘goal’ of society. In any case, it is a view of history that denigrates the past as ignorant, superstitious, and bigoted and that upholds the present as all-knowing, enlightened, and tolerant.
51. Your basic assumption about the people of the past should be that they knew what they were doing and made laws for good reasons, not that they were backwards or barbaric.
52. Treat with automatic suspicion any book promoted by mainstream culture.
53. Whenever possible, consult books written before 1945 and assume they are more reliable than books written after 1945: the closer to the present time the less reliable the book.
54. If the official explanation for something is ‘they were just evil’, be sure to read the person concerned in the own words.
55. If something is banned or censored, that’s a good reason to read it.
56. Never count out the possibility that official records have been destroyed or falsified.
57. If a story has been turned into a film, the version that the film gives will likely be the exact opposite of what happened.
58. Anyone that comes to you ‘pre-smeared’ by the press or their Wikipedia entry is probably onto something.
59. If a teacher or professor presents you ‘both sides’ of an argument, assume they are both wrong and move beyond containment.
As a lawyer, I give your list an A+. #27 is interesting in that of course the moral "real aristocracy" a la Carlyle, that doesn't get its statues BTW, will always oppose evil. The root or source of that morality is interesting, and I bet to be found in a natural law concept of God and Man. But then as the moral dissidents prepare the spring, it is that morality that will in the end be the source of the laws that will replace the degenerate ones of this corrupt dying civilization, and its millions of Neros and Caligulas. So I am still bothered by the notion of law being upstream from culture. You do allude to that being a bit more complicated than that.
All of these points merit an essay at least!
Good stuff!
