  • Why conventional nationalist politics is a failure and the need to find new ways of combating the system;
  • The degeneration of the Left into the equivalent of a sectarian religious cult;
  • His recently released book, A Life in the Political Wilderness;

  2. I agreed with a lot Welf had to say, particularly the focus on workable and potentially effective tactics and strategies. Both the radical right and left rarely give a moment’s thought to how they might actually mount a meaningful challenge to the elite on any level. From this I think it’s pretty clear that there are in no way serious about societal chance and the phenomenon is not really politically but cultural. Which is why I think that a focus on these traditional “political” traditions and their current manifestations is not a productive activity.

    I believe that just about any other group, including elements of the elite itself, are a better prospect that these clowns and their silly cowboys and Indians games.

  4. I notice that at least one of the people posting there made a common error of conflating the nation (the people or tribe) with the state (the government):

    NZSSHQ wrote: ‘To me National Anarchism is an oxymoron. You cannot be an Anarchist (against government) and support the nation-state (of which the foundation is government).’

  5. Hmm, that’s a pity. Our Stormfront kamerads have some how failed, for once, to live up to their sterotype thus robbing me of the opportunity to post the definitive statement of their condition; Lord Omar’s THE EPISTLE TO THE PARANOIDS. On the other hand, what would Eris do?

    Chapter 1,
    THE EPISTLE TO THE PARANOIDS
    Lord Omar

    1. Ye have locked yerselves up in cages of fear–and, behold, do ye now complain that ye lack FREEDOM!
    2. Ye have cast out yer brothers for devils and now complain ye, lamenting, that ye’ve been left to fight alone.
    3. All Chaos was once yer kingdom; verily, held ye dominion over the entire Pentaverse, but today ye was sore afraid in dark corners, nooks, and sink holes.
    4. O how the darknesses do crowd up, one against the other, in ye hearts! What fear ye more that what ye have wroughten?
    5. Verily, verily I say unto you, not all the Sinister Ministers of the Bavarian Illuminati, working together in multitudes, could so entwine the land with tribulation as have yer baseless warnings.

  6. Just a late thank-you for this interview.

    Herfurth has savoir-faire to spare. He’s not beyond sharing it with Lefties, Blacks, Asians and so forth. He’s the antithesis of The Angry White Man. One could say he has an extremely disarming character, while retaining his inner-purpose.

    From what I understand, his grandfather was an elite soldier in the Wehrmacht. It’s interesting to see how his “germ” of pride has changed with the times. Certainly, he’s read Evola. He’s riding the tiger. He’s enjoying life. He’s pushing the boundaries too, of what constitutes rebellion against centralization, Globalization, and racial massification.

    I particularly liked his take on group autonomy. White communities. Gay communities.
    Mixed communities. Violence aside, I happen to like the creative tension and moral agony that comes from urban-hubs were everything is cross-bred in fast fashion. I just don’t like the coercive aspect of it. And I don’t like, if my understanding is correct, how fiat money and compound interest artificially stimulate the commercial fever. If I weren’t an artist, I might be a libertarian. However, I’m a writer and I believe in legacy, tradition and stewardship. I believe in cultural-stewardship, as much as I believe in environmental-stewardship.

    In any case, it was an excellent interview. Herfurth has squared the circle between the Global Citizen and something else. I don’t want to say, the “blood and soil” militant. But he is German. He is involved in agricultural co-ops. He just doesn’t have the old Man-ichaean mentality that sees everything, including yet surpassing race, in Black and White. That’s the benefit of being well-read and well-travelled. Maybe, supplementing his trips to China, he’s read Lao Tzu and Sun Tzu, and synthesized them both into his own supple Art of War.
