Civil war Michael O'Meara

Sixteen

years later (V)

When I was still living in Spain, I posted… my first comment on a racialist forum! (TOQ Online). Although that thread of comments no longer exists online, I can read the exact date on the printout in my binder.

On 24 August 2009, at 2:43 pm to be precise, in the comments section on the article “The Sword”, I wrote:

[Michael] O’Meara is basically right. Myth is certainly what moves the soul. That’s why, inspired by Nordic culture, J.R.R. Tolkien strove to create a myth to the point of inventing euphonically aesthetic languages. Women like Éowyn, the blond we all saw in the film The Two Towers, with Edoras the capital of Rohan in the background, is the crown of evolution.

To think that the very crown of evolution is now in danger of extinction because of self-hate among whites is too intolerable a thought to contemplate. A few months ago a former US president celebrated that whites will be a minority in his nation. I was extremely dismayed when learning what he said! I can only thank the authors of this website, which I have discovered just today. As soon as I can get a teleprompter, I will try to get my strong message through YouTube. Keep up the good work. With compliments, Chechar.

“Chechar” was my pen name when I started out on racialist forums. Once I had settled in Mexico, I read another article from my TOQ Online printout. Now that I can reread it, thanks to the fact that, although it got soaked during the flood, I dried it out, I see things I didn’t see in 2009 because I was just a newbie on racial issues. For example, one of those articles mentioned that Uncle Tom’s Cabin had been the best-selling book of the 19th century.

Let us recall Tom Holland’s Dominion, where he shows us how 19th-century Quakers created the ideology of abolitionism inspired by the message of the New Testament. Given that the female author of Uncle Tom’s Cabin wasn’t a Jew but a fanatical Quaker, whose message was validated by the American zeitgeist of the time, this fact refutes dozens of commenters on The Unz Review who try to explain the Civil War by economic causes instead of, as Goethe wrote, seeing what is right in front of their eyes. This wilful blindness on the part of all these commenters is due to their desire to get their parents’ religion off the hook about the negrolatry that has wreaked havoc on their nation.

Now I would like to say a word about the last text in my collection, “The TOQ Secession Essay Contest Winner: ‘Toward the White Republic’ by Michael O’Meara”, in my opinion, the finest writer TOQ Online and Counter-Currents had before the monocausalists who still comment there drove him away (the full essay can be read here). O’Meara wrote:

Inspired by the birthright handed down by the blood and sacrifice of ancestors, their project, relatedly, is not about restoring the Third Reich or the Confederacy, as left­ists imagine, but about creating a future white homeland in which their kind will be able “to pursue their destiny with­out interference from other races.”

I now see that this segregationist desire is expressed too broadly. A more concrete form would be what O’Meara would also say about Harold Covington’s novels. But Covington’s project, as I have said elsewhere, was quixotic because the government would never allow racists to declare independence in some American states. Furthermore, mere secession leaves weapons of mass destruction in the hands of the anti-white government. What we need is to take power (cf. the biographies of our enemies: Constantine and Lenin). Instead of Covington’s fiction I suppose O’Meara didn’t accept William Pierce’s exterminationist fiction because he still had Christian scruples, albeit in a secularised form. O’Meara continues:

But even if feasible, what self-respecting white man would want to take back the United States, this monstrous, bureaucratic Leviathan whose Jewish, race-mixing, homo­phile, feminist, fraudulent, anti-Christian, and degenerate practices stand as an affront to everything his ancestors stood for?

The hard truth is that it’s gotten to the point where the US can no longer be defended as “my mother, drunk or so­ber,” only repulsed as an alien body-snatcher. To this end, secessionists emulate the proud Danes, who said after the loss of Schleswig-Holstein in 1865: “What has been lost externally will be gained internally.”

But more than refusing to abide the state responsible for their dispossession, secessionists see this “abomination of desolation” as their principal enemy. Only by freeing themselves from it and acquiring their own land under their own sovereignty do they see a future for their kind.

There are two ways of looking at the abomination of desolation that the US has become: the traditional one we see in racialist forums; and ours, where the “anti-Christianity” O’Meara talks about is actually atheistic hyper-Christianity (once again, read Dominion). From our point of view, as I mentioned recently, the good-natured Charlie Kirk and his murderous madman are opposing factions of Christians, like the wars between Catholics and Protestants of yesteryear. That is exactly what Holland says, and those unfamiliar with the history of Christianity should read Karlheinz Deschner’s books, linked here.

In the article that Greg Johnson gave first prize to, the following sentence caught my attention: “Most whites, de-Aryanised as they are, allowed a Negro to become president”. And here is a paragraph in which O’Meara sees beyond the JQ:

As a conservative, he couldn’t see that white secession (unlike the secession of the Confederacy) is a revolutionary project premised on a rejection not just of the illegal alien­ations of the federal government, but of the entire social, economic, and moral order sustaining its ethnocidal rule.

Precisely what Adolf Hitler tried in Germany! In 2009, when I read the article in the binder, I wrote there that I found the ending of O’Meara’s article beautiful, and I even mentioned my beloved Parrish (well, a Parrishesque video can be seen in the clip embedded above). These are the final paragraphs:

Those who know Hibernian—or any other European—nationalist history also know the immeasurable power of the nation, especially the nation rising to nationhood. This is the spirit we secessionists hope to stir in white Americans.

The situation today may, therefore, be totally grim, but politically there is no more feasible or marketable strategy to awaken our people, especially as they become aware of their approaching minority status and all it implies.

Imagine, then, for a moment, a white homeland in North America, free of the Jew-ridden US government, with its colored multitudes and parasitic institutions: In my mind, this one image says everything, explains everything, promises everything.

The powerful imagery of an autonomous white nation possesses, as well, the mythic potential that the General Strike has in the thought of Georges Sorel. All great movements, Sorel saw, are driven not by ra­tional arguments or party programs, but by their myths (which “are not descriptions of things, but expressions of a determination to act”).

For it is myth—and the memories and hopes animating it—that shape a nation, that turn a “motley horde” into a people with a shared sense of purpose and identity, that mobilize them against the state of things, and prepare them for self-sacrifice and self-rule.

A Sovereign Independent State, as the Irish called it in 1916—the White Republic, as I call it—is a possible seces­sionist myth to symbolize the determination of white men to assert themselves as a free people somewhere in an all-white America.

TOQ Online, August 1, 2009

In the now-deleted TOQ Online comments thread (in the C-C repost we see a different thread, with other commenters), Andrew Hamilton quoted something that I find true: “Revolution is a state of mind”: something I don’t see in today’s racial right.

I’m enjoying this series CT. I like you started my racialist journey with Larry Auster. I even recall him blogging on you as an example of the evil of exterminationist WN and as a main reason why Christianity was necessary to provide a foundation for a benevolent racialism. At the time I agreed with him, now I realize that he was barely better than a mainstream Conservative normie. I don’t know what the future of American WN will be but I hope you will have some influence on it.

Although I was charitable in what I said about Auster, he was a scoundrel. At the time, I only wrote under my pen name, Chechar. Auster made my full name public (since I signed my emails to him with my full name).

And worst of all, a Jewish friend of my Gentile family complained that I wanted to exterminate the Jews: something she must have read in Auster’s article!

Eric (Conservative Swede) also had problems with this scoundrel. Still, I think his prose on “the principle of nondiscrimination” is worthwhile. Glad you liked my series. Instalment 5, by the way, is the last one.
