Intro

The Less Than Jolly Heretic

The Philosophy of Hurt Children and An Adult’s

Transvaluated Moral Principle

By Benjamin Power

Introduction

Thank you in advance for finding a copy of this all-new fourth edition. This book has been through many abortive iterations, starting in mid 2023, but I hope this can be the definitive release. I have trimmed out all details that could be considered superfluous, eccentric, or self-indulgent, and those that were temporally relevant to the past years and are thus now expired, and have otherwise bulked out and refined all of the chapters, adopting a more professional tone to my unfortunate conversational writing style in places, stripping out most of the unnecessary and artificial dry humour and irreverence – always a gimmick to some degree in my essays, as these are serious topics – and generally polishing my thoughts and arguments.

It may be apparent that my book’s title is an allusion to the familiar pseudonym and brand name adopted by the conservative evolutionary psychologist Edward Dutton – a man surely closer to the former descriptor than the latter on account of that familiar ‘but so what if…’ dispassion and lack of insight common to the comfortably ignorant. I felt, bizarrely perhaps, that I too am to all accounts and purposes a heretic to the modern world, writing as a ‘man against my time’, in the words of Savitri Devi, albeit a gloomier character by far, both publicly and in private, than what is suggested by the arrogant Vaudeville buffoonery of that often controversial (and commonly wrong) joke-professor’s borderline subversive persona.

Ideally, no one could be stoically incorrect about that much, with article after tautological, self-serving article of confident, enthusiastic cack on the definitively debunked and fallacious, setting up his audience of straw men, and resurrecting a shoddy harras of long dead horses to flog with sadistic schoolyard glee, like Nietzsche’s policeman, and with the not infrequent bouts of puffed-up, insecure credentialism, and a homosexual’s venom tongue for the critic (and those citizens he fails to understand psychologically, yet denigrates regardless), perhaps rather spiteful himself in the cold light of truth, and not have some kind of agenda. Besides, glorifying communal beer drinking is for degenerates.

Historically, I had brief dealings with ‘Ed’ some years ago by email exchange, not long after the initiating events of Chapter 1 in fact, and which went very badly for me given my mental state at the time. It was surely a further confirmation for his already long biased mind – for his priors remain artificially unalterable; his conclusions railroaded by scores of unconsidered assumptions, and the validity of his metrics self-assigned – that I was just another ‘spiteful mutant’ moron, from the myriad ranks of crazies online, and thus not  awarded the time of day, and certainly no sensible adult claim to realism. Formal politeness goes a long way for me when evaluating email correspondences.

I hope now perhaps, though I am almost sure he will never read this document (having not, it seems, bothered to read any of the other excellent source material that thoroughly refutes his antiquated bourgeois dogmas and mechanically rearranged prejudices) that I can go some way towards redeeming myself and my positions before him, as one genuine 21st Century heretic to a cold, beady-eyed inquisitorial fraud and his supercilious, brainwashed choir of academically naive, close-minded boors, that is, all current ‘dissident’ white nationalists.

Truly lambs in wolves’ clothing, and effortlessly thick, more glaring even as an observation than to perceive their gross, formulaic brutishness emotionally: a lower ‘psychoclass’, in the words of the classic psychological researcher and psychohistorian Lloyd deMause, lacking all nuance; unable to recognise their own repressed – and commonly repressive – natures by application of any genuine sustained self-reflection; to tap the fundamental reasons for their antisocial carelessness and lack of interpersonal concern. It is difficult to claim that they have sufficient grasp of what it is to possess racial loyalty – to truly assimilate a consistent ethnocentric friend/enemy distinction – such is the superficiality of their politicised sentiment when compared with their actions.

Just for one prominent example, putting ourselves in their shoes, what do we think then of psychiatry and mental health problems? What of their origins? What do you think of those of your same race – our children sometimes too – who exhibit madness? That would be an interesting evaluation (and, usually, I could guess the answer before the next breath was uttered).

“Look, you got on my tits”, he told me. That’s a shame. Perhaps in that case I could recommend him the gym.

I hope you enjoy this complicated account. It’s not going to be the standard fare for underground racialist publications, as there is enough of that well-meaning but erroneous smut out there now, enough for a modest Hitlerian book burning in fact. Instead, I ask you to approach with a genuinely open mind. You may be surprised by the time you pass my opening chapters.

I was raised as a strict Catholic, but, as we shall later see, Christianity shoulders a fierce responsibility for the dissolution of the West, and it is my personal belief that the most vital thing our people – as Europeans; as Aryans – must do, before it is too late to do so, is jettison this febrile foreign death cult and its enervating psychological impositions from our culture and race forever, or face total annihilation, in a vast world of ruins built by us but no longer really suited to our survival. Only then can we reclaim our birthright: undisputed mastery of the planet Earth, for all generations to come. It will not be an easy ride, but it is a necessary one.

As has been said before, and as, by Nature’s luck and by iron determination, will always be said, he who will not struggle for life – as that is what life itself is intrinsically – does not deserve to be alive.

This book describes these problems in more detail, and what I personally have been through so far, and what we, myself as much as you, should consider valuable knowledge, the dross named for what it is, and dutifully excised, leaving us better armed now, in part, before the ravages of a blacker future.

Ring binder

I recently mentioned that I would be posting more entries about the massive damage abusive parents inflict on their children, and that the topic shouldn’t be dismissed by racists, since some have suffered, or continue to suffer, mental disorders.

I became disturbed decades ago when I fell into a New Age-type cult, as an “idiotic defense mechanism” (a term I use in my autobiography) in response to a trauma I couldn’t process in my younger years.

These days I’ve been rereading a ring binder of over a thousand pages that I had been using as a diary about my family dynamics (I’ve read up to page 318 and I plan to read the rest in the following days).

I dreaded the first few pages because they brought back extremely painful events for me, written decades ago.

I was surprised, now that I’ve reread them, that although the pain remains in my memory, rereading them was incredibly liberating…

Many people believe that repression (“forgiveness and forgetting”) leads to healing—a legacy of Christian ethics that has permeated the secular world, even the misnamed “mental health professions.” The truth is diametrically opposed: repression leads to madness; processing pain saves us from neuroses and even psychoses (in my case, soul searching helped me apostatise from the New Age cult I joined in December 1978).

When Benjamin and I can establish a small publishing house, in addition to racialist literature we will try to publish our memoirs.

New turn

I discovered white nationalism when I was living in Spain and was already fifty years old. I started writing at twenty-nine out of the most basic psychological need: I had suffered hell at home, which resulted in me not making a career, lack of a good job, lack of a partner and a terrible inner tormentor regarding the Christian doctrine of eternal damnation (a result of having internalised my father’s fierce Catholicism).

Although as a child I had wanted to be a film director, circumstances led me down a very different path: trying to understand my family’s tragedy.

I am the eldest of my siblings, followed by two sisters. One of them died ten years ago, and the surviving sister still lives with all the internal wounds caused by parental abuse.

Yesterday, I spoke about my sister’s tragedy in the comments section.

Imagine someone calling you, claiming to be your bank manager, with the alarming news that someone wants to hack your account and that you need to protect it by transferring all your funds to another account…

My sister isn’t mentally retarded, but as I said yesterday, she lacks even the most basic empathy because our mother treated us without empathy since our teenage years. And empathy is necessary to instinctively recognise that someone is trying to scam you.

I’ve already said everything essential I had to say regarding the reasons for the darkest hour for the white race, summarised in the PDFs of the featured article. But my family’s tragedy continues even years after my parents’ death, as the consequences are evident, for example, in what happened last week: a scam that took all the money (!) from my sister’s share of the proceeds from the sale of our parents’ mansion.

If I already had a Syssitia with at least three priests of the sacred words, myself included (and perhaps my sister babysitting an adopted Aryan baby, since now she cannot buy a flat), we could think about things like a daily podcast on racial issues. And if we could acquire the machinery to print books on demand, all the PDFs would be available in print and ready to be sold online.

But we don’t have the Syssitia yet…

What happened last week motivates me to do something drastic in parallel with the translation of my trilogy about family tragedy.

Why not start posting more articles about the trauma model of mental disorders? After all, it was a mental disorder that prevented my sister from detecting the scam. A year ago, before we sold the house, a woman offered to help her at the ATM; my sister agreed, the scammer switched her cards, and emptied her account. My sister didn’t learn her lesson because, as I said, she lacks empathy (see the big difference between compassion, sympathy and empathy in my yesterday’s comment). In the most extreme cases, this lack of empathy produces psychosis.

Last year, I wrote several articles about the case of Marco, whom I met half a century ago in a park where we played chess. Marco’s lack of empathy is much more serious than my sister’s, since Marco is already in a state of open psychosis, unable to return to the world of sanity.

Since discussing my family in blog posts would first require a careful reading of my trilogy, as the posts would only be corollaries of the essential points, it occurs to me to return to the subject of Marco to illustrate the trauma model of mental disorders.

I continue to see Marco because he allowed my parents’ furniture into his house (I live in a small studio apartment) without charging me. But every time I visit him or speak to him on the phone, I am shocked by the level of his mental deterioration.

Interspersing my findings in depth psychology with posts about the Aryan decline seems like a good idea because, as I said, the essential points on the racial issue have already been presented on this site.

On the other hand, the question of why there is so much psychosis in the world is vital to saving us. For example, the fact that the US Secretary of War, appointed by President Donald Trump, speaks of rebuilding the Jewish temple in Jerusalem is obviously a case of psychosis, not only on his part, but on the part of all Christian Zionists in that country. And that has profound implications for understanding things like the current American-Zionist war against Iran (and the eventual crash of the petrodollar).

Understanding why my sister was so incredibly foolish as to fall for such a blatant scam, or Marco’s psychosis, is a microcosm of the psychosis happening on a global scale (like Trump believing everything Bibi says). The only difference is that Donald Trump has political power, and my sister and Marco don’t.

So I feel like rereading everything I wrote last year about Marco and adding a few more things about his case. Ideally, I’d talk about my family, since I have much more information here. I’ll see where this leads. It’s infuriating that we still don’t have that Syssitia. But I have to do something with my time besides continuing to translate Hojas Susurrantes.

Postscript to Benjamin:

If you’re interested in writing articles about dysfunctions in your family, using pseudonyms so no one finds out (like I do with my sister’s name), you’re welcome to join this new chapter of The West’s Darkest Hour.

Autobiography Hojas Susurrantes (book) War!

Early days of spring

These past few days I’ve been rereading the third chapter of my Hojas Susurrantes (the first is already available as a separate book here, and the second here).

It had been years since I’d read that thick chapter—actually, a whole book. The revision is a preliminary step to the English translation.

I reiterate what I said last year: for those of us who have been extremely abused by our family and/or the System, nothing is more therapeutic than denouncing all those who harmed us, using their real names to send them to the annals of literature as jerks: a literary revenge.

My mental health has increased these past few days enormously, not only from rereading what I hadn’t read in years, but also because of the war that Israel and the US are suffering, thanks to the heroism of one nation: Iran.

Just look at what Scott Ritter just said: that Israel must be destroyed because it is the cancer of the planet. And he says the same about the United Arab Emirates (as a prostitute of the Great Satan, they too must get their just deserts).

A vindictive autobiography and a war in the Middle East that marks the beginning of the end for the petrodollar… What more could I want in these beautiful early days of spring? The only thing we need now is for a millionaire sponsor to appear so we can build a temple of Eros in the gardens of our Syssitia…

How to murder

your child’s soul

In November, The Occidental Observer published one of the chapters of this book, How to Murder your Child’s Soul: the complete English translation of which has just been released and is available here.

Hitler and the National Socialists had limitations. And I am not referring only to what I said in my article yesterday: that the Christian problem is more serious than the Jewish problem. The Nazis also failed by believing in biological psychiatry; specifically, that mental disorders are due to genetic deficiencies.

That is false, and this semi-autobiographical book proves it conclusively.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Benjamin for his corrections to the English syntax. It is always difficult to write correctly in a second language.

Those racialists who have had mental health problems should read this book. It is liberating in a very specific sense. They must rid themselves of the demoralising idea that there is something wrong with their bodies, when in reality, the only thing that happens to those who suffer from disabling mental stress is that they have been martyred by their parents.

Incidentally, the cover image is a drawing my father made the year before I was born. It’s a copy of a Gustave Doré engraving that now hangs framed in the studio my father left behind.

Miller quote

“But if writers begin to describe their childhood, as has been happening more and more frequently in the past decade, then they will be confronted with the hostility of society, which sees the customs and rights it has enjoyed for thousands of years threatened” (Thou Shalt Not Be Aware, page 230).

3rd video

When I first uploaded this video to YouTube (a portion of it is a sort of video letter to my father), my father was still alive. He died ten years ago without ever realising the crime he had committed against me.

2nd video

This second video is also an introduction to the greatest taboo of humankind: the psychological damage that abusive parents inflict on their children.

I recorded these videos when I was 50 years old on an island located in northwest Africa, and after a year I set them to “private” to avoid problems.

When I made them “public” again this year, I noticed that all my videos outside of this numbered series (except for some movie clips) no longer appear in my channel’s content. I don’t remember deleting them. Were they censored by mistake?

I don’t know. But the topic of the missing videos is so important that, so that the viewer takes note, only this time (I refer to my YouTube’s description of video #2) will I omit the links to my books: links visible in the rest of the videos.

First video

For the first time in the sixteen-year history of this blog, I dare to show my adult portrait. The reason is that Benjamin is doing me the great favour of adding English subtitles to some videos I recorded in Spain, in 2009.

It’s appropriate to add subtitles to this series of thirty videos because they summarize the tragedy of my teenage life: a taboo subject in a society that, even though secularized, still adheres to the Judeo-Christian commandment to honour one’s parent; to the point of absolutely forbidding, through the so-called mental health professions, to even imagine the possibility that parental abuse could cause a mental disorder in a child.

In the description below the YouTube video I uploaded yesterday, I’ve included links to my trilogy in Spanish and to the first chapter of Hojas Susurrantes, which is already available in English in print. The second chapter will soon be available in print in English, although some pages from it were published on Thursday in The Occidental Observer (TOO): my criticism of Sigmund Freud.

Once the upload of all thirty videos with English subtitles is complete, it will be clear that my exposé of Freud in TOO wasn’t capricious (remember that Kevin MacDonald also has a very critical chapter on Freud in his most influential book, The Culture of Critique). As I explain in the video linked above, a follower of Freud, the psychoanalyst Giuseppe Amara, contributed to destroying my teenage life. (In the TOO article, Amara’s name is linked to a Wikipedia article because this analyst was a notable figure in the country where I was born.)

César Tort at 50 years old in Gran Canaria, Spain.

As far as my appearance is concerned, I have never said that I am Aryan; although, since I live in Mexico, to Mexicans (most of whom are dark-skinned) I am a sort of castizo. But you don’t need to be a pure Aryan to be a priest of the 14 words.

Since The West’s Darkest Hour also promotes the 4 words, “eliminate all unnecessary suffering,” I hope visitors to this site will appreciate Benjamin’s hard work (he was also abused by his father and psychiatrists as a teenager) as we upload the subtitled video series I originally recorded in Spain without subtitles: just me speaking in Spanish.

Incidentally, when I filmed that series, I hadn’t yet discovered the forums of white nationalism: which I would discover that same year, also in Gran Canaria!

Snow White

The true story

Wow. What a find. I’ve always thought that fairy tales reflect realities that illustrate what I want to say in my trilogy of books I’m translating into English—and look what I found today!

In the real Middle Ages, not in fairy tales, some mothers—who we would now say suffered from malignant narcissism—killed their most beautiful daughters for reasons of power, if we understand the dynamics of the noble classes. (I couldn’t help but think of the infanticide campaign that my mother subtly unleashed during my puberty and that virulently culminated in my adolescence. But that’s another story.)
