“Deep thinkers aren’t rejected because they are wrong, but because they are right too soon”—yes, but I disagree with a couple of things in this video:
Alan Turing, mentioned in the video, played a crucial role in deciphering the intercepted messages that allowed the Allies to defeat the Germans. This means that the normie who uploaded the video doesn’t know that the homosexual Turing was an agent of Evil.
The other issue is that sometimes intelligent people can’t find anyone to talk to about profound topics. Socrates had quorum but none hearken to Nietzsche’s voice.
In these videos by normies for a normie audience there’s still a certain naiveté in understanding what Savitri used to call “a Man against his time”.

Another thing that bothered me about the video is that the author portrays Hypatia of Alexandria as a wise woman among suspicious men who didn’t understand her: a tinge of current feminism retroprojected into the past.
In reality, as we saw in my recent quote from Benjamin’s book, Hypatia’s time was a time when rabid Judeo-Christians were murdering “pagans” and destroying the Aryan culture where the vast majority of artists, creators, and scientists were men (Hypatia was the exception that proves the rule).
The point you make about not being able to find anyone to talk to on proper topics is one the biggest issues in my own life. 99% of the time I’m humouring small talk remarks off my girlfriend about cat & dog videos on Facebook, or something off a TV soap opera, or desperately pleading with my friend Alastair not to present me another mono-minded hour-long lecture down the phone on cricket, hockey, his career (moans on his – high – salary, really, all he really wants to discuss primarily is jobs/his job), or classic Games Workshop miniatures, or indeed my drunken neighbour Dave ranting slurred non-sequitur nonsense at me in his cups. They don’t ever let me talk back properly, and they aren’t serious-minded people (though I wouldn’t expect it in a woman, so don’t truly mind my girlfriend’s approach to conversations – it would hurt her feelings were I to be too unrealistic over that). I quite literally go mad over this sometimes.
The point is, I don’t get good discussions, hardly ever, in real life maybe once every few years (or decades). I’ve had over 30 years of consistently not being able to share my positions with people – with white men – only becoming truly painful when I grasped that finally I might have something worth saying, and it never gets any easier. I think that’s why I was so disappointed that it (on the whole) went silent on here recently.
I see this blog as the primary intellectual space on this wide topic-set on the entire internet (and a worldview, in reality, covers everything), perhaps the best site on the internet anyway from my perspective, certainly the most astute historically and challenging ethically. It’s like the sites that used to exist when the internet first started in public usage, where someone would dedicate long hours to textual depth dives on their materials, irrespective of how obscure. It galls me that it isn’t popular with white people, let alone with the right-wing, or whatever one would call them. But it isn’t. You’re right. It says more about them than it does about you.
As you say, we shall just have to be very patient.
PS. I’ve watched a number of videos online on this topic. This seems one of the best of them. Some repeat themselves too often, and ruin their pacing. I liked the fact at least that he mentioned that some of these ideas in their totality can’t be reduced to brief sound bites. I lose track of how many recommended books, PDFs and webpage entries I’ve read since I discovered WDH. Many tens of thousands of pages. Certainly more than I’ve ever read on any official university degree course, by a long shot. I wonder if a lack of reading ability dissuades others (those with the time to at least – and, bar illness/stress, they really should find the time)… and then Alastair will turn to me, bored, and ask me to sum up what I’m going on about (which I try to), so he can nod then and go ‘oh’ and ‘but I disagree…’, having heard only an impotent fraction of what he needs to comprehend. If only he/them knew the gigantic body of work behind all of this. That frustrates me.
Hi Ben,
Alastair isn’t a friend of yours (just as the “friends” at the chess club I’ll return to once I move, aren’t true friends of mine). He’s an acquaintance. Nietzsche made it clear: “Camaraderie exists, I wish friendship existed!”
Personally, I can only be friends with someone who believes in the 14 and 4 words (if someone only believes in one of the sacred words, he’d be half a friend). From this perspective, I haven’t had a single friend in the country where I live since my early teens (I’m not counting my puberty in high school because I hadn’t yet learned to think deeply). In other words, since I was 16 or 17, I have been absolutely alone in this country.
Yeah, you’re right. Acquaintance is a far better term. I think I employ the expression ‘friend’ too easily. I knew him before school (the only person who has regularly kept up contact with me) but there’s never been anything meaningful shared, and it got worse – if that can be imagined – once he graduated and got on the rat race. We inhabit totally different worlds. I didn’t heve any good ‘friends’ (i.e. acquaintances) even at school, just those who tolerated me but didn’t like me, or those who hung around to bully me. I’m sorry you’ve been alone.
To be honest, many days can go by, and bar my typing ‘conversations’, I’ll have been in nigh on total silence. I barely talk at all these days. Just staring into space, thinking, or into a book, or moving between my crops. I get the most interaction out of my pet rabbits. Sometimes I wish I was more like them – silent constantly, just being. I remember writing an entry in one of my journals that too much of us is in sounds and words these days, and comparing us with the rest of nature. Provided I could act, sometimes I wish I never had to speak again, for all the thwarted disappointment of it. But yes, it’s nice to meet a proper friend. I look forward to those genuine discussions, eventually!
Amen.
PPS. one other thing I liked about this video over some others is that the vast majority (almost all in fact, I think) of the illustration/photo subjects are Aryan. It hasn’t been the same in some other videos I’ve seen, where they seem to mimic diversity photoshoots in their composition. Because, if anything, at least I can firmly add that I’ve never heard a deep conversation spill out of your average non-white (or indeed any of them, reluctantly, in my own life – none of the psychiatric staff force-treating me are white).
By the way, compare the current silence with this 2017 thread, which received 31 comments, this one being just the first:
Could that be why the white nationalists have now shunned me?
They sound like religious cultists (which, in fact, they are). Rather than just insult you, call you wrong and promote his position dogmatically, why didn’t he show why he thought you were wrong? His is a nice bold statement, but it’s bullshit. For example, quite a few of the UK government leaders aren’t Jews, and the pacifist mob egalitarians of the ordinary public that sustain our country’s totalitarianism aren’t Jews. He might as well be complaining about autistic psychogenesis or the ‘myth’ of schizogenic mothers.
As for the rest of the comments, I go with Joseph Walsh I think. I hope it doesn’t offend you that I consider you an Honorary Aryan also. It’s never actually crossed my mind to consider otherwise, given your content and personality. I think it soils me a little having even to make mention of this, and I’d rather not again. It does say something that it’s you, and not all these presumably purer white nationalists, who has constructed this site. I couldn’t have achieved what you have.
I think I do class as Aryan (barely, only for the moment, and only by a very loose standard – I’m certainly not Nordic) but my own phenotype is contaminated by a degree of Armenid admixture, as one will notice from the photo of me on my website (I get very self-conscious myself, much as I try to just think ‘look, it is what it is’). I’ve never yet worked out where in my family tree that originates, but I blame the Irish branch more than the Norman branch. And as has been recognised, Himmler wasn’t Nordic, and neither was Hitler, albeit still in noble recognition that Nordicism was to be promoted. It takes people shrewd and not quite so innocent – angelic – in character to formulate a course of action for us in these times. I myself would fight for our future, but otherwise I go with Mauricio’s scale, and I recognise that, for the aftermath, I’m not in that 10%.
There is still probably the option that there are lurkers too shy/too demoralised to comment, or those who simply don’t know what to say (I got that myself with your brilliant Augustine posts). I don’t know your analytics. Perhaps the site isn’t shared by word of mouth. I get the same with my own content for a different reason: I’m reticent to publicise it too much in this country lest I fall prey to the thought police.
What I can assure you is that in the past, it received a lot of traffic from Google, but in recent years, this site hasn’t received any traffic from that search engine. It’s clear there’s a campaign to keep racialist forums hidden, although you can reach me through other search engines.
By the way, I’m heading to Mexico City any moment to sign my contract for the small flat…
