Jay Nordlinger’s “Struggling” gives another glimpse of the cuckservative mindset at National Review (where Nordlinger is senior editor). A general theme is that the NR community is more civilized and more moral than those nasty Alt Right people. It begins with a complaint that Trump’s new campaign manager, Stephen Bannon, uses bad words in private to refer to establishment Republicans, quoting Betsy Woodroff of The Daily Beast.
Donald Trump’s new campaign boss — the guy white supremacists are so excited about — once described D.C.’s top Republicans as “cunts.” Stephen Bannon . . . used the phrase two years ago in emails with Breitbart reporter Matt Boyle. Bannon ran Breitbart at the time, and the two schemed about how to get activists to “turn on the hate” as part of a plan to “burn this bitch down.”
I suppose that what Bannon meant by using that word was approximately what we mean by calling Nordlinger and establishment Republicans cuckservatives — men who don’t have any balls, who have sacrificed their masculinity to the goal of joining liberals in the virtue signaling competition that is so typical (and unique) to Western cultures. Because that’s the thing, isn’t it. When it doesn’t come down to worrying about their jobs in a GOP re-fashioned by the Trump Revolution, the real horror that prevents them from endorsing the Alt Right is that they will be characterized as morally defective by the New York Times editorial board and other pillars of the establishment.
This becomes obvious in his quote from Roger Scruton:
I thought of what Roger Scruton said to Mona Charen and me, in a podcast last year: “I think that, in the end, there is something that unites all conservatives, which is that they are pursuing something they love. My view is that the Left is united by hatred, but we are united by love: love of our country, love of institutions, love of the law, love of family, and so on. And what makes us conservatives is the desire to protect those things, and we’re up against people who want to destroy them, and it’s very simple.”
Now as an admirer of Scruton, I would not quarrel with the idea that the left is motivated by hatred — witness the vicious attacks on Trump supporters and Alt Rightists. The mainstream view on the left is that anything is morally justified when dealing with such people. “No free speech for fascists.” Not to mention physical attacks.
But where Nordlinger goes wrong is to suppose that Alt Rightists and Trump supporters do not have a moral vision and a genuine love of “love of our country, love of institutions, love of the law, love of family, and so on.” We just think that our institutions, the rule of law — not to mention the country we grew up in and came to love — cannot possibly withstand the immigration onslaught of millions of people who, encouraged by the media and academic establishment to plug into the anti-White grievance industry as soon as they set foot in America, care nothing for any of this. Nor can traditional family life withstand the domination of the media by leftist elites hostile to the traditional people and culture of the US.
But writers like Nordlinger, claiming William Cuckley as the standard of conservative thought (“Will it be Bannon or Buckley?”), steadfastly hold on to their ideas that immigration is a conservative principle (as Bret Stephens recently claimed), that immigrants are “natural conservatives” (even though they vote overwhelmingly for big government, anti-White racial entitlements), etc.
Nordlinger errs in thinking that the desire to “burn the bitch down” could not be motivated by love of country, institutions, etc. When everything underlying these institutions is threatened by our hostile elites, the only choice is to bring it all down. Trump is a revolution, and I think a lot of his supporters see him as throwing a wrench into a corrupt system that is light years from serving their interests — that anything would be better than what we have. The NR-favored candidates would have been nothing more than midwives to the destruction of all these things, perhaps just a tad slower than Obama-Clinton, et al. We need people who are angry — very angry — at the system.
And regarding Bannon, the following is encouraging — and a bit worrying about Trump.
Last year, in a November interview with Bannon, Trump regretted the loss of a worker who took his skills back to his native India.
“We’ve got to be able to keep great people in the country,” Trump said. “We have to be careful of that, Steve. I think you agree with that, Steve?”
Bannon did not. “A country is more than an economy,” he retorted. “We are a civic society.” (“‘Racialists’ are cheered by Trump’s latest strategy“)
Although I think Trump should keep such ideas under wraps until after the election, the US is indeed more than an economy, and our civic society is based ultimately on the racial core of Europeans that created the institutions and culture of the country. An immigrant from India may be very competent but is unlikely to identify with the people and culture who created the US. We have to consciously and explicitly stand for the proposition that this is and should remain a European civilization. These institutions cannot survive Whites becoming a minority and indeed, another Supreme Court judge on the left would go far to destroying the freedoms guaranteed by the First and Second Amendments, and much else.
The theme that the US is more than an economy is a virtual anthem of the Alt Right among whom identity is front and center — something the cuckservatives at NR will never understand or sympathize with.
After all, if they did, they would be branded as moral reprobates by the usual suspects.

This article and it’s comment thread are premised on a serious misunderstanding.
Nordlinger is no cuck. He’s a Jew.
Off Topic, but I enjoyed very much your comments with David Duke on Hillary’s alt-right speech. Re Dr. Duke’s pedophile analogy, you should be aware that this actually happened! As a lawyer in her very first case Hillary defended a 41-year old male rapist by accusing the 12 year old girl he raped of being “emotionally unstable with a tendency to seek out older men.” among other things.

A multicultural society is nothing but a giant shopping mall. People, especially white liberals who give minorities influence don’t realize that it was whites who built the US. Be it the early Pilgrims and pioneers or the later waves of immigrants from Europe. You can assimilate a German and Italian into a new people; you can’t assimilate a German and Negro.
Scruton: “…we are united by love: love of our country, love of institutions, love of the law, love of family, and so on.”
The “so on” should include our race. That love for our race, as a whole, as populations as well as individuals, and our resulting desire for its continued existence, well-being and independence, should take precedence over all the other loves listed by Scruton, which of course do not conflict with love of our race, but are quite consistent with it when the connection between all of them and our race is properly recognized.
Our antagonists like to describe us as haters, motivated by hatred, with hate being our dominant emotion, and refuse to recognize our love for our race. This confuses the order of things. Love for our race and its works should be – and in most, or at least the best, cases is – our dominant emotion and the primary source of our motivation, and it is very important that we make this very clear, that we not be reluctant to speak in terms of that love, to constantly acknowledge and refer to it as the root source of whatever positions we take.
Hate, if we have it, is secondary or derivative, a defensive response against something that is destroying or threatening what we love.
Richard McCulloch,
I agree. I think your idea would create a sense of unity among our people (folk) and a good self-image for each of us.
Scruton did not leave aside all but the most politically important level of in-grouping accidentally. He consistently overlooks deliberately the distinctions that matter most. He’s famous and rich, and respected you know. Despite never telling us anything we didn’t already know – a condition?
Scruton: “My view is that the Left is united by hatred, but we are united by love”
At the top, the Left is given its political orientations by Jewish activists who are anti-White. It’s a racial thing. The White leftist activists conform to the Jewish anti-morality in a very aggressive and self-righteous way. Destroying society makes them feel morally superior. They have been manipulated into serving an anti-White ideology, instead of enforcing a pro-White morality. In fact, the Jewish agenda of destroying the White race is carried out by conformists, whether they are furious leftists, or well-meaning normal people, who go with the flow and cannot believe that the government simply wants them dead.
Most White people who vote for the Left are not especially aggressive and do not want to destroy society. They just think it is in their financial interest to vote for the Left, even though it isn’t. Anyway, political parties on the Right are also carrying out the Jewish agenda of race replacement. In the sphere of the Left, the only thing that is virulently hostile to humanity and decency is the Jewish powerhouse at the core of it.
Nordlinger quotes Scruton about the Left being united by hatred. But apart from the Jews, it’s unlikely that many people on the Left think to themselves: “I just hate White people and must find new ways to destroy them”. Most people on the Left are not being deliberately evil. So, Clinton is not really worse than destructive people like Nordlinger who are half-traitors and half-cucks, and who are ultimately aligned on the same Jewish anti-White phony morality as the Left.
Armor,
“Clinton is not really worse than destructive people like Nordlinger”
Nordlinger as dog looking for a leader, but Hillary Rodham Clinton is a true Stalinist, make no mistake about it!
Armor’s comments routinely combine close and accurate observations of people and events with morally and psychologically sound reflection on those observations. The comment above, however, and the one below in response to another commenter (August 22, 11:45 p.m.) are especially perspicacious and noteworthy, even measured against his usual high standard.
Thank you, Armor.
“the Jewish agenda of destroying the White race is carried out by conformists,”
Yes I recently discovered the Milgram experiment where usually 2/3 of the people conform and obey Authority.
It seems to me that The Authority in our culture shows people what is ‘good’ and the people take their cues from the panoply of mass media such as network TV(the View) or the interracial commercials. They are shown ‘what is considered good’ and they mutely go along with it. Authority shows them what is valued and they conform. Also the people are aware of the ever present threat of the Human Resources Department where they work. So the HR Dept. acts as the SS enforcers of the multiculti suicide pact they witness over and over on TV. They are shown what is good on mass media and gently reminded of the power of that view in the workplace.
This Milgram experiment or obedience experiment has been repeated over and over with similar percentages of peoples conforming to the Authority.
“I recently discovered the Milgram experiment”
Stanley Milgram was Jewish, and his experiment sounds a little suspicious, since it was meant to explain how the Germans, who are ordinarily so polite, agreed to transform people into soap and lampshades when they were firmly instructed to do so. I prefer experiments like this one: Youtube: Everybody’s Doing It. I have also read about James Dobson’s experiment here.
When I say that the Jewish agenda is carried out by conformists, I’m thinking about the leftists and the civil servants in the government. They don’t realize they are manipulated.
• The government is replacing us with third-world people. That is the result of the work of Jewish organizations, Jewish money, Jewish activists, the Jewish media, Jewish-controlled trade unions, and so on. Most politicians and civil servants in the administration do not wish to replace us. They are trying to do their job as well as they can, and they don’t realize the government wants us dead. I don’t think Ronald Reagan had any hostility against White Americans, for example. People like him are simply guilty of not thinking hard enough. Maybe it will take a civil war before some of them finally wake up. That is because it is hard for White people to accept that Jewish networking plays such a strong and harmful influence in our society.
There are a whole list of pretexts used to justify immigration. None of them makes sense, but they are useful to make White people think that the government is more misguided than genocidal. Even people who work for the government and help carry out the race replacement program are fooled.
• The same thing is true at school. You see teachers using the whole word method to teach reading. The real goal of the method is to complicate the children’s task of learning to read. That should be obvious. The idea behind that method is that you do not explain to the children that BA represents the sound B followed by the sound A, resulting in the syllable “BA”. Instead, you get the children to recognize whole words without them being aware of the different letters in each word. That method is a clear case of malicious mischief.
But the teachers cannot believe that the government and the education school specialists want to destroy the children’s education. So, they think it must be some kind of progressive method with hidden benefits. Or maybe it’s a case of the leftist education specialists being misguided. At one point, the teachers have to tell the children that B+A=BA, or they would never learn to read at all. But they still try to use the whole word method a little, because they trust the government and their leftist advisers.
Most education specialists and most people in the government and the education department have no idea that the whole word method was simply designed to destroy the children’s education. It’s a centralized operation. I guess the whole word method has been promoted in most Western countries. If you start investigating to find out who’s been pushing the whole word method in all Western countries, my intuition is that you will find Jewish organizations and Jews masquerading as leftists. They are the ones manipulating the real leftists into pushing the whole word method in the name of progressivism.
In her book, “The deliberate dumbing down of America”, Charlotte Iserbyt mentions the central role played by the Heritage, Ford, Rockefeller and Carnegie “charitable” foundations. I think those institutions are under Jewish control.
• The same thing is at work in the arts: graphic arts, theater, movies, public architecture… The Jews have been pushing their “modern art” and all kinds of destructive ideas. It is simply an attack against White society. But you still find millions of White people, especially those who are involved in artistic creation, who think that the works of Picasso are something legitimate that has to do with his leftist sensibility or something. Actually, it has to do with his being associated with the Jews.
“Authority shows them what is valued and they conform.”
There is also a lot of financial pressure. The Jews are now in power. Very often, they can decide who gets hired (only Jews and leftists), who gets subsidized, who gets advertising, and so on.
“An immigrant from India may be very competent but is unlikely to identify with the people and culture who created the US.” That doesn’t ring true. Most of the Indians you see are already indoctrinated in American culture. Sadly, like with Americans of their age, it’s a degenerate culture, forgetful of the people who created the United States. I will say that someone like Preet Bharara, who was educated partly in America, is more identified with the founding fathers than your typical third-generation American Jew. Jewish identity poses special challenges. Everyone else is assimilated by the third generation. But no doubt core American identity has been overstressed by too many hard-to-assimilate immigrants, and deliberately so.

Mark,
The exploitation of European males and females goes far beyond the political, it reaches (and threatens) our genetic continuance.
No one gives up power willingly, so the question, (although noble) how realistic are your goals?
As you stated early on the Alt Right is a “loosely based coalition” and that does not a revolution make!
“No one gives up power willingly”
This begs the question, why did the sadistic, communist terrorists of the Soviet Union willingly surrender their power at the pinnacle of their reign? Surely it wasn’t because they were just nice guys or just felt good about doing so that particular day.
Is it not obvious the so called “collapse” was a staged event to allow the shift of power to a new venue? Is it not also obvious the “evil empire” was the foil used to continue the cold war and its development of weapons technology.
Is it not obvious that around the same time the nuclear submarine was perfected to its ultimate design limits, that suddenly, two once critical arms of America’s nuclear defense “triad”, SAC’s bombers, and ICBMs, were dismantled in much the same fashion, and at the same time, as America’s long time Soviet enemy? Yet the submarine arm of the triad was left virtually untouched.
One day they where here, the next day they were gone. Can anyone provide a similar instantaneous evolution of military/political power anywhere in history? So what is Israel’s foremost nuclear weapons system? And guess who is now cutting up their nuclear submarine fleet? Can you say “America” boys and girls?
Is it not obvious these American and Soviet powers had fulfilled their true purpose of driving the development and perfection of advanced nuclear technology before delivering it to Israel on a silver platter via Jewish agents like Harry Dexter White, the Rosenbergs and Johnathan Pollard? Is it not obvious, with that mission accomplished, it was time to move on to a new portion of the agenda for the global takeover by Jews?
Consider for a moment the question, would the “Muslim” invasion of Europe have been possible had the Soviet hierarchy still been in power? And had it taken place, how could such an invasion have been explained away in light of the iron-fisted, surveillance state that created the Berlin wall?
In fact, how could all this “Muslim” terrorism been allowed into Europe in the first place with the presence of police organizations like the KGB and East German Stasi permeating the continent?
So you see, power is surrendered willingly when Jews deem it necessary to continue their quest for global domination.
Nordlinger’s view is just another instance of white egocentric individualism, to wit, a desire to be the better of- smarter, more moral and more perspicacious – the garden variety whites he competes with. It is a frustrating and apparently immutable facet of the white genotype. It makes an effective resistance very difficult: collectivist and high IQ beats atomistic and (relatively lower IQ). Yes the Jews have been successfully dealt with in past times and nations, but those were non-democratic governments. Democratic governments are probably far more porous and amenable to Jewish influence. Nordlinger’s view may also be indicative of obliviousness to the Jewish dimension of America’s problems.
There are more high IQ Whites than there are high IQ Jews. The real issue is, as you say, White individualism vs. Jewish collectivism.
And, that awful, White Supremacist, “White Man’s Burden” affectation so many Whites have. It’s the need to morally posture as “better” than other Whites (and non-Whites) by not “taking our own side in an argument.”
It’s something similar to Kant’s Categorical Imperative, the idea that everything must be universal and never particular.
The combination of Individualism + universal morality is at present the core problem of Western man. As long as he stays with his own kind he is able to create a highly successful society (“high trust society”), but as soon as people from other cultures enter his society in significant numbers, he is at a disadvantage, because all other non-Western peoples are collectivist and have an ethnocentric morality (“is this good for our people?”). This is true for all primitive peoples, but also for Muslims, Indians, Chinese and Jews. The latter are his greatest danger because they function as a highly intelligent ethnic Mafia, intent on controlling and exploiting his society from key positions. The upshot is that Western man will be exploited by all kinds of ethnic parasites up to the point of total destruction, unless he stops (and reverses) all non-Western immigration, but that exactly is according to his own universal morality “immoral”! Western man can only save himself if he changes himself fundamentally and adopts a collectivist and ethnocentric attitude. The main struggle therefore will be not between Western man and non-Western immigrants, but between the new Western man and the old Western man. What that means can be seen at conferences of organizations such as American Renaissance or election meetings of Donald Trump. The most hysterical protesters are people of his own ethnicity.
The real attack against White society comes from the Jews, not from the handful of crazy antifas who try to intimidate people in AmRen and D.Trump meetings. Those antifas are a very small minority. They are probably subsidized by Soros anyway, and brainwashed by the Jewish media.
“The combination of Individualism + universal morality is at present the core problem of Western man.”
The real problem comes from our hijacked governments. The welfare system was set up very recently in the 20th century, and then, was almost immediately hijacked to the benefit of the race replacement program. This has nothing to do with White people’s universalism. It is deliberate treason by our governments. It is a policy devised to destroy White people.
Right now, Western governments are importing millions of young African men and claiming that they are families of Syrian refugees fleeing Bashar el-Assad’s barrel bombs. It should be obvious that the problem comes from our anti-White governments, not from White people themselves.
The injection of non-Whites, not just in White countries, but in every White village, every school, every street, every business or firm, is a government-enforced policy. The natural reaction for White people would be to organize and kick the parasites out, so we can keep functioning as a “universalist” all-White society. This is prevented by governmental force.
“all other non-Western peoples are collectivist and have an ethnocentric morality (“is this good for our people?”)”
It is much worse than that. It is very dangerous to go to the subsidized housing projects that are now entirely populated by non-whites. You are likely to be attacked in some way or other. It seems that the latest batch of refugees from Syria and Africa are set on raping White girls as soon as they set foot in Europe. It is more than ethnocentric cohesion, it is naked racial aggression. It comes naturally to them. Again, as White people, our natural reaction would not be to fight individually, but to organize collectively and get rid of them. That would be easy. The problem is how to get rid of ZOG first.
Ryckaert – you’ve posted a lot of great comments over the years, but this one has to be your all-time best.
You threaded the needle with skill of a highly trained surgeon.
“A healthy mind in a healthy body.” -Ancient Greek ideal
“A healthy man in a healthy race.” -Hitler’s ideal
Those two things can work together. The liver works with the body, not against it to survive. The issue of individualism versus collectivism is the false alternative. How to get them to work together for the best result is the proper aim.
I’m not sure this “moral signaling” morality is really ours. Germanic duty culture is far more intuitive. Christian morality made other things besides performance of your basic duties the measure of social standing. When that replaced duty-culture, we fell apart, burned women as witches, and self-flagellated for imagined sins. Morality was the fall of civilization and we’re still falling from it.

“An immigrant from India may be very competent but is unlikely to identify with the people and culture who created the US.” I was in Berlin a few months ago and I befriended an Indian. I got to know him and he lived there for almost 20 years if I recall correctly.
My parents were German so I know a fair amount about Germany. His parents have been there just as long. He knew virtually nothing about Germany other than Hitler and the “NAZIS”. I can’t fault him for that because that is what most Germans are like themselves and he gets it from them more than anyone else. But he knew nothing about German achievements in science, music or any other area. He had a vague understanding that they were good engineers. He told me I should go try a “curry wurst”. It was a German invention he said. It’s a post war cheap meal with sausage and curry, put together by an immigrant no doubt. I told him so. He said Germans were “racists” and he said that is why Germany had so many “problems”. This was earlier in the year and before the rape epidemic in Germany became spread in the media, but after the rapes in Cologne. I didn’t say anything but before the rapes, Germany had been spared any violence. There were terrorist attacks in France, Belgium and elsewhere, but nothing in Germany. So, then maybe an immigrant in France says the same thing, that France has more problems than anyone else.
But, I don’t think so. I’ve been living in Ecuador, South America for a year and a half. I spoke to a young German girl who was volunteering to help kids with problems. She told me many kids asked her if she hated blacks and if she was a fan of Hitler. She said they didn’t mean it as an insult. I commented the Jews have done their work here too. I was surprised. I didn’t think they brought their holocaust story to South America in such force and Ecuador is a very poor country. I just thought they would have more important things on their mind. The reason I bring this up is because I think the Indian guy and everyone else are told Germans are racists and then they repeat it. Anything that happens that might reinforce it convinces them it’s so. But in reality, I suspect the Indian I met is like many or most immigrants. He gets along alright with Germans, but he’s not German and there is a separateness. And I think it’s like that for most immigrants throughout Europe, not just Germany.
