Yesterday the Facebook page of Affirmative Right, along with several other pages that I was personally involved with, was shut down by Facebook. Among those affected was the anti-war page "No More Brother Wars" and "Neo-Trad News" (the previous Trad News page had been shut down on a spurious charge).
Our Facebook page had more than 10,000 followers and likes, No More Brother Wars around 4,000, and Neo-Trad News under 100 (the previous page had around 1,500). Despite the size of these followings, it was already clear to me for some time that the Affirmative Right and Trad News pages were being heavily shadow-banned. This was not in the least unexpected in the extremely intolerant social media climate that has developed in the wake of Brexit and Trump's election.
As part of the latest clamp down the personal Facebook accounts of both myself and Andy Nowicki were also deleted, with the loss of 10 years of personal interactions with a wide variety of people. This too was not entirely unexpected.
Other people have also been affected by this clear infringement of the First Amendment, most notably Red Ice and the personal accounts of those involved with it, as well as Civil Liberty, which is run by British Nationalist Kevin Scott. I am sure that there are many others involved, or will be shortly.
The deplatforming follows a push by the Jewish-run ADL that has weirdly been spearheaded by ex-comedian Sacha Baron-Cohen. Yes, the same person responsible for dealing in crude racial stereotypes, like the supposedly Kazakh character "Borat." Here he is singing a song about killing Jews that manages to be "racist" against Jews, Kazakhs, and rural American Whites all in one go.
But this is obviously no problem because it's all covered by the big fat double standard, by which certain people can say and do what the heck they like, but other people are not even allowed to carefully and politely state the truth.
So, what are they deplatforming when they deplatform Affirmative Right? Well, for one thing they are attacking a site that does the exact opposite of what they assume it does.
Here is a quote from the speech that Baron Cohen gave to the ADL:
So, after deplatforming us for content like this, what exactly have Sacha Baron Cohen, Mark Zuckerberg, and the ADL done to convince us that Jews are not dangerous? They were certainly dangerous to our Facebook page.
We are not motivated by a love of Jews, but a love of the truth and what is in the best interests of our people and civilisation. In articles like this, we have attacked retarded Neo-Nazi—and Fed—memes that promote crude and counter-productive anti-Jewishness. In fact, you could say that running articles like this has even led to our site being "double shadow-banned," that is shunned by a lot of people on the Right, who feel a deep sense of victimhood and have an overpowering emotional need to "blame the Jew." But our desire to avoid this never stopped us running articles that sanely and sensibly critiqued Jewish power and Israel. This, after all, is a much more effective way of attacking something.
The simple fact is that we have always welcomed a wide variety of viewpoints here. In fact, as long as they are well-written, I quite like publishing articles with which I personally do not agree, as such pieces take you out of your comfort zone and make you reexamine your own ideas more rigorously. Dear Leftists, you should try that some time.
As for the ludicrous smear that we are some sort of "White supremacist" "wignat" site, this is an obvious slander and mischaracterisation. Like the vast majority of people around the World, I am sympathetic to identity politics and nationalism that protects and favours my own group. But my views are complex and nuanced in a way that moronic Leftists could never understand. I believe a nation is a race and an ethnicity—a rather banal and commonplace idea to be honest—and not just a race or just an ethnicity separately. I also think the nation state, depending on its size, is far from perfect in that it subsumes and standardises regional groups and identities, but overall it is a reasonable compromise with modernity, unlike the anti-White hatred, death-camp demographics, and "multicultural" insanity that the Left and globalists favour.
Is Affirmative Right a hate site?
"Hate speech" is the most retarded term ever created in that it demonises and dehumanises one of the most common human emotions, without reference to whether it is justified or not. The truth is sometimes it is. That is the only question, whether hate is justified in this or that particular case, or not. Right now the recent revelations about Prince Andrew and Jeffrey Epstein has stirred my hatred for the Royal Family. I guess that makes me into some kind of monster!
In a sense we are a hate site, as I have published several articles repeatedly "hating on" the likes of Andrew Anglin, Richard Spencer, and other idiots who have demeaned and trivialised sensible and healthy identitarian tendencies, and who have made the Dissident Right an easy target for its enemies, especially when it comes to deplatforming. None of our Leftist critics—who are also worthy of plenty of healthy hatred—realise that the Dissident Right is a brave attempt to overcome the hateful reality of a civilisation literally destroying itself, as ours is doing.
Yes, how hateful we are for hating civilisational collapse, along with the marginalisation and deplatforming of the truth that helps to make that inevitable.
But the sad fact is that hatred is finite. Ultimately it is determined by certain biological and temperamental capacities—"the spleen" as the Ancients called it. But today, in the sick world we see before us, there is simply too many objects worthy of hatred for any one person to have enough hatred for them all.
So, to the question are we a hate site, I would sadly have to answer in the negative, and say that rather than a "hate site" we are a "jaded cynicism site."
It is with this jaded cynicism that I greet this latest cowardly move by Facebook to erase our page, a move that was spearheaded in true "clown world" fashion by a Kazakh-and-Afro-Caribbean mocking Jewish comedian.
Handicapped as we are by the soft totalitarian tendencies of Big Tech, we will continue to do what we do, producing content and attempting to preserve it and make it accessible to our readers. We appreciate each and every one of you (Feds and shill excepted) who have accompanied us on this journey.
In the Mel Gibson movie Braveheart, about the Scottish patriot William Wallace, whose career sparked Robert the Bruce's campaign of independence and led to the Declaration of Arbroath, a template for America's own Declaration of Independence, there is a scene that has long stayed with me.
In this scene, which may or may not be as historically inaccurate as much or the rest of the movie, a group of ordinary men, including William Wallace’s father Malcolm, decide to fight against the Normans who have subjugated England and are now trying to crush Scotland beneath their iron heels. One of the faint-hearts protests, “We can't beat an army, not with the fifty farmers we can raise!” to which Malcolm Wallace delivers what I consider the best line in the movie:
If you want to keep in touch with us on social media I advise you to migrate to vk.com, the Russian-owned Facebook clone site, which seems to have a higher regard for freedom of expression than the West at the moment. You can also support us by buying our books or making a regular donation to our Patreon account (No, sorry, that's been shut down as well).
Now, the prisoner wishes to say just one word...
