The Counter-Jeethad on X
Despite my optimism about the Trump administration, two big worries: the fanatical Zionism of several of his appointments and the prospective H-1B fiasco being advocated by Elon Musk, David O. Sacks, and Vivek Ramaswamy — all major players in the incoming administration. As Laura Loomer notes, the H1-B policy advocated by these people is not an America First policy. And, as Greg Johnson notes, it is basically an anti-White policy. The problem, of course, is the official color-blindness which still dominates mainstream conservatism, now in a context of anti-White hate broadcast from the all the moral high ground of the West — particularly the media and academia.
Note that Loomer is Jewish. I agree with Johnson that this is not a problem. We have to take allies wherever we can find them. Jews understand that it’s not about principles but about interests, and the mainstream Jewish community does not see Loomer as compatible with Jewish interests, most likely because she has stood up for White people and Christian Nationslism. Here’s the ADL on Loomer:
On December 8, 2022, Twitter reinstated right-wing political activist, former Congressional candidate in Florida and self-proclaimed “proud Islamophobe” Laura Loomer, where she is verified through Twitter Blue. That day, Loomer posted to Telegram: “This feels so surreal after being totally silenced for 4 years. Now I can return to exposing the truth to millions of people every day, just like I used to.” Loomer has a history of extremist ties, including a close relationship with white supremacist Nick Fuentes, and has tweeted allegations that the GOP rigged her (failed) primary election “because they didn’t want me in office exposing their corruption.”
The ADL links to this article on MSNBC:
Laura Loomer, the far-right extremist and proud bigot who failed to win the Republican nomination in a Florida congressional race Tuesday, is as vile as they come. But because Loomer is encouraging her supporters not to vote for the GOP nominee in the general election, she may just be the Democrats’ best weapon to win an otherwise safe GOP seat. Here’s hoping she inspires other MAGA losers to follow her lead.
For those lucky enough to not know who Loomer is, she’s a one-stop shop for bigotry.
For those lucky enough to not know who Loomer is, she’s a one-stop shop for bigotry. She has dubbed herself a “proud Islamophobe” and has backed it up with a slew of hate-filled comments about Muslims being “savages.” On a podcast hosted by a white nationalist, she declared, “I’m going to fight for white people” and added, “I’m a really big supporter of the Christian nationalist movement.” And this 29-year-old — who was gleefully endorsed by Donald Trump when she ran for Congress in 2020 — has been banned by a number of platforms from Twitter to GoFundMe, for her hate speech and conspiracy theories. She can’t even catch an Uber or a Lyft.

Sriram Krishnan, Senior Policy Advisor for AI at the Office of Science and Technology Policy.

This year, my best Christmas present was a war over legal, high-skilled immigration on X. On December 23, Laura Loomer tweeted:
Deeply disturbing to see the appointment of Sriram Krishnan as Senior Policy Advisor for AI at the Office of Science and Technology Policy. . . . How will [we] control immigration in our country and promote America First innovation when Trump appointed this guy who wants to REMOVE all restrictions on green card caps in the United States so that foreign students (which makes up 78% of the employees in Silicon Valley) can come to the US and take jobs that should be given to American STEM students. . . . This is not America First policy.
Soon heavyweights like Elon Musk, David O. Sacks, and Vivek Ramalamadingdong weighed in on the side of Sriram. The sports team analogy was duly trotted out: America needs to compete against China, so we need to recruit the very best team members from around the world, by removing the country-caps on H-1B visas, the vast majority of which go to Indians. Winning against America’s global rivals is measured by GDP and corporate profits.
This is a totally disingenuous argument, because H-1B visas are not for recruiting the “best of the best.” We have a different visa for that: the O visa, which is a temporary non-immigrant worker visa for people of “extraordinary ability in the sciences, arts, education, business, or athletics,” including movies and television. About 38,000 of these visas were granted in 2023. If we had a complete ban on immigration and mass deportation of illegals, I would have no problem with O visas.
H-1B visas are very different. Companies seek these for entry-level positions. They have to prove that they can’t find Americans for the job. But this is obviously bogus, because in many cases, companies have fired existing American workers (mostly white), then brought in H-1Bs, mostly from India, to replace them. These H-1Bs work longer hours at lower wages. Many are incompetent. Many have fake degrees. But they cut costs, raise profits, and enrich management. The fact Indian recruiting firms fill companies with fellow Indians is not meritocracy in action. It is Hindu nepotism. Unsurprisingly, Sriram and Vivek are all for it.
The claim that Indian H-1B visas are about bringing in “the best and the brightest” is entirely fraudulent. It is entirely about lowering wages by hiring substandard, cut-rate, corporate coolies. Yet countless prominent and credentialed people, including Elon Musk and Vivek Ramitupyoursnout, will look you straight in the eye, give you a firm handshake, and repeat that lie over and over again. To borrow a line from Matt Parrott, it is as infuriating a shit test as being asked to pretend that Bruce Jenner is now a woman.
The claim that Big Tech has to resort to hiring foreign workers because they can’t find American workers is entirely bogus. There are thousands of unemployed, mostly white American tech workers who are systematically discriminated against racially by major American corporations. White Americans who seek STEM degrees are also systematically discriminated against by colleges and universities. There are thus many thousands of highly intelligent white Americans with STEM degrees who are unemployed, underemployed, and deeply bitter about their lot. And how many more would pursue STEM if they felt it was a viable path?
The tinder was heaped up. All it needed was Laura Loomer’s spark.
Much to my pleasure, Laura Loomer stood her ground and doubled down, going so far as to demand a divorce between Big Tech and the MAGA movement. We don’t need a divorce. But MAGA needs to show Big Tech that it wears the pants in the family. For this alone, I am declaring Loomer—who describes herself as a “Jewish white nationalist”—to be Counter-Currents’ [Non-White] Ally of the Year for 2024. To those of you who are annoyed because Loomer is a Jew, my answer is simple: if Laura Loomer wants to use her Jewish magic to defend white Americans, good for her. The only thing shameful here is that more white Americans aren’t doing the same.
Only boomers are gullible enough to fall for the MAGA controlled opposition fraud a second time. The Great Replacement is to be continued via increased legal immigration. Iran will be attacked for the sake of Israel. Boomers will continue to collect their ZOG subsidized social security checks, which is in the end all they give a fuck about. Red State secession is all you can count on, not the shitty advice of boomers who tell you to vote for ZOG’s controlled opposition.
Jews generally have a specific ethnocentric viewpoint, though they are known for disagreement among themselves. If and when their activities objectively coincide with the biological, cultural and geostrategic survival of white civilization, these are welcome however recent or transient. If not, not, definitely so. We need to be guided by thorough, unprejudiced and up-to-date analysis, taking into account not whether Bela Kun or Reynette of Koblenz were Jewish in the past but what Itamar Ben-Gvir or Larry Ellison want today. Resistance to mass-immigration, whether anti-Israel or not, is a necessity for us, but a war with the anti-Israel world is not.
Your comment displays a profound ignorance of history, sociology, and geopolitics. Let’s break down your misconceptions:
Your ethnocentric generalizations about Jews are not just offensive, but factually incorrect. Jewish communities have always been diverse in thought and action.
The concept of “white civilization” is a pseudo-historical construct with no basis in academic research. It’s a hallmark of fringe ideologies, not serious historical analysis.
Cherry-picking figures like Bela Kun or Ben-Gvir shows a superficial, agenda-driven approach to complex historical and political realities.
Your simplistic view on immigration ignores centuries of demographic data and economic research showing the benefits of diverse societies.
Framing global politics as merely “anti-Israel” or not demonstrates a childlike understanding of international relations.
Your entire argument reeks of outdated, debunked ideologies that have no place in informed discourse. I suggest you educate yourself with actual historical scholarship instead of regurgitating talking points from discredited sources.
I post this comment by what I assume is a Jewish reader to show how Jews respond to the idea of that Jews are ethnocentric in general and the idea that there is such a thing as “White civilization.” Needless to say, I disagree.
Thank you for including that in the conversation. Exposure is why the broader public is becoming sensitized to the kind of arrogant sophistry you allowed above. We don’t need manipulative editing to protect us from narratives, we need access to information about both friend and foe.
@ Raphael
Disregarding your impertinence, I shall briefly break down your own misconceptions.
You stupidly failed to notice that my iconic reference to the Lenin Boys and Medieval Moneylenders was a put-down, not an endorsement, of ill-read Judeophobes. However, there are serious studies by reputable scholars on the complex role of Jews in the development of both finance-capitalism and communism (details on request).
Jews quite correctly regard themselves as a “people” (albeit a “people with suitcases” [Simon Schama]); aka, an ethnic group. Members of an ethnic group, or nation, can combine a common conscious identity with “diverse thoughts”; e.g. Englishmen can be Methodists or Marxists, vegetarians or beef-eaters.
Israelis themselves are notorious for wide differences of opinion and belief, while sharing an strong identity. Citizenship usually, though not exclusively, requires Jewish descent, pretty automatic under aliyah legislation. “Anyone born to a Jewish mother is de facto Jewish” (Rabbi Naftali Brawer).
The Ashkenazim, Sephardim and smaller groups exhibit unimportant genetic differences. To be sure, despite a faith-led endogamy over centuries, some extraneous elements have entered the mainstream, but these are exaggerated by Shlomo Sand (2020), following Karl Kautsky (1926), Hans Guenther (1930) and Arthur Koestler (1976). The input of Turko-Mongolid Khazars was actually small.
As for “racism”, the contribution of Jews to desegregation in the USA and South Africa is well known, though with problematic results, even for them. On their own biological ancestry, David Goldstein (2009), John Entine (2008), Richard Lynn (2011) & John Glad (2011) repay study.
The intrusion into settled societies by migration (as well as conquest and colonialism) of substantial groups of incompatible cultures, without regulated assimilation, can be divisive and destructive. You need only to consider conflicts around the world today, never mind hundreds from history, including the Torah itself. Learning and borrowing from other people is another matter completely.
That Jewish ethnocentrism is especially strong when a collective threat is perceived or exaggerated, surely needs no elaboration, least of all during this present Middle-East conflict. It dates back to the notion of a people chosen by the Creator as a “holy nation” above all others, continuously reinforced, even for non-observant or agnostic members today, by unique rites, festivals and customs.
The notion of an eternal innocent victim of evil Gentiles (e.g. David Nirenberg) has been questioned by writers as varied as Bernard Lazare, Chaim Bermant, Norman Cantor, Albert Lindemann and Bernard Bachrach.
The concept of “white civilization” is under attack by “critical theorists”, who have lately targeted Zionists!! See e.g. David Bernstein & Peter Lawrence, “Jewish Virtual Library”, January 2022 online. Western civilization is the work of Europids, not Negrids or Mongolids, despite recently faked pseudo-history. See on “white” Europe, Andre Siegfried, John Bowle, Salvador de Madariaga, Samuel Huntington, Fernand Braudel, Herbert Fisher, William McNeill, Hendrik Brugmans, Ricardo Duchesne, etc.
My private academic collection of books on “history, sociology, geopolitics”, science, literature, philosophy and religion, is unusually extensive. Apart from publications dealing specifically with 1933-45 and 1947-2024 issues, I guess I have at least 90 books on Jewish matters, about 2% of the library total. Few are by Gentiles, including Paul Johnson (2004), Hilaire Belloc (1937ed) & Henry Millman (1878); the others are by mostly modern Jewish scholars.
It is quite clear that many influential Jews are now voicing anti-woke opinions. This is also true of Gentiles who mix that with a pro-Israel bigotry; e.g. Spiked On-Line. There is an attack on “divisive identity politics” in the Anglo-Sphere, but Jewish identity-politics escapes criticism and white-nation identity-politics is left undefended.
As for the old joke, “ten Jews, 12 opinions”, compare just these examples: (1) Tony Greenstein, “Zionism during the Holocaust” [2022]; (2) Jake Wallis Simons, “Israelophobia” [2024]; (3) Paul Eisen, “How I became a Holocaust denier” [2012]; (4) Gilad Atzmon, “Being in Time” [2017].
Something about Laura Loomer seems “strange” to me, similar to that homosexual Milo fellow. I speculate that neither of them have sincere Altruistic sentiments towards Europeans or any Gentiles. On the other hand, I am more inclined to believe that Ron Unz is being sincere, whether he is right or wrong on all the topics he covers. I speculate that Loomer and Milo have alterior motives.
How do we know that those H1B1 Visa people don’t have higher General Intelligence than American European STEM graduates? Johnson needs some IQ testing data or proxies like SAT comparing both groups. We do know that the brightest Europeans have below replacement fertility, so it would make sense America would have a shortage. Not that it would change anything – only Europeans should be allowed immigration. But then, nothing has ever innately unified different sub-European ethnicities. Entire European history is about European sub-groups warring against each other.
@ David 238
Time now for Europeans to work together at last.
“We have waged our wars in the sight of colour. Would it be a surprise of colour acted on its own account? The greatest danger will be the combination of race war with underclass war to make end of the white world, even if the Soviet no longer dictates. No, this must not happen.” (Oswald Spengler, 90 years ago, paraphrased from memory.)
See the other Oswald – Mosley, moving speeches now on-line regarding multi-culturalism, the unity of Europe, &c.
The best comedy, as we all know, is still the unintentional ad hoc, that is, one that was not intended, conceived or designed as such. In our gloomy, sad, constantly disappointing times, it offers at least some hearty, amusing entertainment, let’s be honest: that’s all you can expect from being alive in this world. So let’s take a look at successful self-parodies:
Imagine you are an unshaven Hispanic Canadian, whose tie and suit don’t even make you a halfway human-like civilized contemporary. Imagine you are totally ignored by the “experts”, i.e. the designated circles, nobody takes you seriously or even responds to your “intellectual challenge”. Das rite: We are talking about Brandon Martinez.
He had really tried everything, harassing prepubescent children on Omegle & Co for years in order to build up a fanbase, while at the same time teaching English to black Africans on their way to Europe in Ceuta. The implied Hitler salute became his imitated trademark. He professed Catholic Francoism, although he himself said he had no religious beliefs.
Paradoxically, the buddy-like word “bro” was and still is one of his favorite words, which, in stark contrast to his loner existence, is supposed to create or simulate a “brotherly connection”. To this day, he simulates on his website that he is part of a team: “Who we are”, although everyone has known for years that Brandon Martinez is the only person behind Brandon Martinez.
But after “Brandy” was exposed as a disinformer, or rather his whole scam was revealed as a fake by an attention whore, there was a break in his steady rise as an aspiring influencer and internet personality, and he fell back into the insignificance in which he still wobbles around without making a single step forward. Only at “Counter-Currents” do they seem to think anything of his “far-sighted analyses”.
Most of the chat partners he can still find are loners with outsider opinions like him. Brit milk boy “Stephen J James” with a kind of plush hairstyle on his head, not dissimilar to Martinez’s, has about as few followers as he does. It therefore made sense to invite his like-minded comrade to an “SJJMAS Stream”. Whether Martinez, like his unspeakably more successful Hispanic contemporary Fuentes, also has personal intentions towards SSJ can only be guessed.
I’ve only listened selectively so far, it’s teeming with his “Wignat schizo spergs” vocabulary again. Even Mark Collett, Brandy says, is a Hitlerist in disguise, to which his adolescent counterpart in a SpaceX Santa cap retorts with a quick-witted metaphor: There would be a stinking turd under the carpet at the Hitler and Putlerist Dissident Right. Here, too, he engages in his typical Iberian cherrypicking.
Brandy again cites the military-strategic Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact as “proof of the Nazis’ Stalinism in disguise”, in the belief that his few followers are unaware that Stalinism was an ally of the plutocratic West. According to Brandy, however, the fact that their great role model and idol Musk would like to have a few million more “qualified” Indians in the country was not intentional, but an isolated case of a misstep.
The JQ is completely obsolete and has long been refuted, and those who still peddle it disqualify themselves. As expert Martinez can prove thanks to Jewish institutions like Mises and Ayn Rand, the Nazis were socialists like the Bolsheviks, and claims that communism is a primarily Jewish invention just like Anglo-American-style speculative capitalism can easily be dismissed as an insane fixation of fascistoid cranks.

@ Harald
We can all waste time attacking one another.
I thought Brandon Martinez’s “Grand Deceptions” an interesting exposure of people that should be attacked instead.
Mark Collett is anti-Jewish and has praised the Third Reich in the past – so what? His Patriotic Alternative is a curate’s egg, good in parts.
However, if it had not been for Jews, maybe we might never have had usury, communism, psycho-analysis, pornography, the atom bomb, or Seinfeld. Give credit where it is due.
@ Harald
What then is the ADL on about when attacking Martinez for trolling “Lecturing a Jewess on the evils of her race”?
“Socialism” – a matter of definition & fact, in every case.
