Anthony D. Smith: Culturist Hero

     Anthony D. Smith (1939-2016) is a culturist hero.  Alongside, Samuel P. Huntington  (1927 – 2008), Smith inspired me as I wrote ‘Culturism,’ in 2006.  Many will recognize Harvard’s Huntington for his having created the ‘Clash of Civilizations’ model.  But, though he taught at the London School of Economics, very few know about or appreciate Smith’s ‘ethno-symbolism’ model of nationalism.

CULTURISM, RACISM, WHITE and CIVIC NATIONALISM

                  

Why did Culturist John lie about race in the book, 'Culturism'? Because he wished to move straight to discussing culturist policies that can save the West.

So, how does acknowledging race and IQ impact culturist policy?

Watch this video for the answer!

AN ACADEMIC BOOK RECOMMENDS WAR IN EUROPE!

Peter Turchin’s, ‘Ultrasociety: How 10,000 Years of War Made Humans the Greatest Cooperators on Earth,’ necessarily implies that the West needs a popular war within or near its borders. He reluctantly confesses, “A reactionary catchphrase of the 1970s used to go, “what this generation needs is a war,” a deplorable sentiment but one that in terms of cultural evolution might sometimes have a germ of cold logic.”^[i]

THE STORY OF MAN AND WAR

Turchin’s main project is to explain the existence of civilisations.  To this end, he tells the story of social cooperation’s rise and expansion.  Being an evolutionary anthropologist he starts by describing chimpanzees use of violence to maintain their group cohesion and hierarchy.

But, by the Pleistocene era, (2 million – 10,000 BC), evidence indicates that man, (homicide aside), was largely peaceful and egalitarian.  Why?  Stone weapons!  Upstart bullies could be pounded in the head with stones during their sleep.  So weapons enforced egalitarian cooperation.

At the end of the Pleistocene era, because the weather became stable, populations boomed. At this point, you get brutal unequal chiefdoms.  TAhe standard model says that agriculture created the archaic states.  Turchin convincingly argues that this is not true, war did.

For thousands of years, after agriculture became widespread, people continued to do hunting and gathering as well.  Those with these blended economies were free and equal. And these folks’ had much better diets than those who only did agriculture. So agriculture does not explain the rise of states.  

Using math, history and evolutionary logic, Turchin argues that one group switching to a centralised hierarchical state system could dominate and enslave the others.  Once one group had switched, others had to do so or be beaten. So hierarchical cooperation was born and brutally enforced. War made people do agricultural, not vice versa.  Societies’ roots are in war.

But, starting about 500 BC, Turchin explains, military horse use decisively tilted the military advantage to whoever could field the largest army. Large armies require big population bases. Hierarchical archaic states' control via violence limited their size and created internal disunity.

Universal monotheistic religions enabled larger societies.  Zoroastrianism, Christianity, Buddhism, and Confucian taught rulers to treat their subjects with care.  In turn, these religions legitimised supporting the king. But these egalitarian ethics, again, were there to create larger populations in order to win wars.

THE TEN COMMANDMENTS of PROPAGANDA: THE CULTURIST REVIEW

The Ten Commandments of Propaganda

by Brian Anse Patrick

Mr. Patrick died as I published this article.  This article is dedicated to his memory.

John K. Press

I love the opening lines of Brian Anse Patrick’s book, The Ten Commandments of Propaganda. Published by Arktos, the book immediately tells the reader they’ve already been propagandized via the author evoking the Biblical Ten Commandments. Effective propaganda, Patrick explains, draws upon collective cultural memory.  His book is full of platitudes we really need to hear if we’re to be successful culturists and end multiculturalism.

STRENGTHS OF PATRICK'S BOOK !!

The Ten Commandment’s footnotes give the book an academic feel. But, this short book reads really well. Patrick says he moved academic points to the footnotes in order to make the book more user-friendly. And, his strategy of listing one propaganda commandment per chapter makes it easy to revisit the book, which increases its usability. Speaking of which, let’s move on to . . .

Crazy Culturist John's Newest Video!

Hey all, here is my newest video.  It seeks to inspire culturist art criticism in an attempt to save Western Civilization!

Enjoy!

The Cultural Road Ahead

This article was inspired by an IBA comment asking for some post-election thoughts.  Thanks IBA!!

Trump’s glorious win has rats scurrying all across Washington D.C.  But, it represents an opportunity rather than a mission accomplished. Cultural Marxist themes still permeate our culture, telling us that the US is evil and smashing it is noble. For Trump’s win to have a lasting impact, it must spearhead a cultural revolution.  But, how can we change our infected culture?

Inclusivity and exclusivity:

To increase our unity, we must counter the multicultural narrative that the West has no culture into which to assimilate.  We must reject the globalist narrative that all people’s are the same and the West is not special.  We are an English speaking, tough, individualistic, rights / duties, non-socialist prideful, Protestant Christian  / Enlightenment-based culture.  Our culture is complex.  Sometimes it is easier to define by exclusion, we’re not a Sharia-loving, Confucian, Spanish speaking nation.

Yet, note that this vision is not racially exclusive.  People of all races can learn English. And, our vision not being racist also implies white self-criticism.  Our slutty behavior and soaring divorce rates, based on ‘party values’ have got to be shamed again.  As Socrates and Jesus said, the soul is higher than the body.  As Washington argued, hedonistic louts cannot sustain a republic.  We must acknowledge we have a culture and it has standards to which people of all colors should aspire.

Yet the culturist truth is that assimilation has limits, sympathy with Sharia law is not compatible with loyalty to western laws.  Cultural diversity is real.  So we need to take naturalization loyalty oaths seriously again. Excluding other cultures does not mean we do not wish them well, it means we love ours enough to protect it.   And, again, more fundamentally, knowing some things are not-Western is the quick route to knowing the West has a specific culture to take pride in.

Pride in our history on a culturist basis:

To spread this vision, we need to rewrite our schools’ curriculum on a culturist basis; that is, we need to acknowledge the importance of culture to our history.  This will turn our history from a source of shame to a source of pride.  WW II Japanese relocation was not racist.  It was because cultural diversity can create divisions in loyalty.  Manifest destiny was not racist, it was culturist.  If Mexicans had populated the South West, it would be high-birthrate / low-education and poor like Mexico.  Our predecessors weren’t irrational.  Our historical success shows they enacted smart culturist policy.

He who controls the past controls the future.  To make America great again, we must teach that the West has long been great!  As culturist common sense dictates, we must inculcate cultural pride with culturist curriculum.  

But, inculcating pride cannot stop at the schoolyard gate.  We need to have new patriotic public celebrations and reinvigorate old ones with new pomp.  The 4^th of July must once again mean more than getting drunk and blowing things up.  We should sing the public anthem at more events and shame those who don’t.  That is not to say we need compulsion.  That would run against our mores.  But, events promoting pride in the American public are sorely needed.

CULTURIST REPROGRAMMING

This is a longer version of a shorter (still homeless) article, which was prompted by a kind comment on IBA, asking where to next, Culturist John.  That long sentence by saying, 'Thanks for the inpiration, IBA!'

Here she is:

This is not just an article. I am asking questions, trying to start discussions, and – grandiosely – launch a policy field. Here is my question: How do we re-program our nation?

Of course, we can use the Left’s technique of taking sound bites out of context, and calling individuals “Hitler.” This works for tarnishing individuals and those associated with them. But, culturists are concerned with defining, guiding and promoting traditional majority culture more broadly. As such, rather than tarnish one man, we culturists must work towards a wider reprogramming of western culture.
I teach in a Christian university in South Korea, yes South! In my university, students are required to go to chapel twice a week. If they don't they cannot get a space in the dormitories and their scholarships are put in jeopardy. In their majors, students perform coordinated Christian dance routines in awesome assemblies. I mention this for entertainment’s sake. But, I also mention it to broaden our imaginations.

Speaking of imagination, the first thing we need to do is realize that rationality is not enough. We know that if you really think Black Lives Matter (BLM), statistically you should confront inner-city black-on-black violence. But, pointing that out has had zero deterrence effect. As with my uni’s dance routines, we must look past rationality. 

DARWINIAN CULTURIST PSYCHOLOGY

Herein a Darwinian perspective helps. Fish mark territory with bright colors. Howler monkeys defend territory via howls. Colors and sounds matter. We need to wave flags, have red, white and blue clothes, and use patriotic songs – the national anthem among them – to create loyalty. Anthropologists, ethnologists and sociobiologists of all stripes will tell you ‘us versus them’ is the primal program. Even naming the enemy helps. No them, no us.

Is Trump Alt-Right or Alt-Light?

Science and the Alt-Right!

Culturism introduced to Alt-Right

Culturism (cǔl-chər-ǐz-əm) n. 1. The philosophy, art, and science that values, promotes and protects majority cultures. 2. The opposite of multiculturalism.

Culturist (cǔl-chər-ǐst) n. 1. An advocate of culturism. 2. One who engages in the arts or sciences of managing and protecting majority cultures. 3. One who judges cultures. 4. Adj. Of or pertaining to culturism, culturists or culturist policy.

In introducing the philosophy of ‘culturism’ to the Alt-Right community, I need to make a confession: the section on race, in the first chapter of the book, ‘Culturism: A Word, A Value, Our Future,’ is disingenuous.  I knew it was at the time.  In the introduction, I briefly argue that race is not a biological category.  In denouncing the book, ‘The Bell-Curve,’ I wrote, “there is no reliable evidence that there are any mental differences between groups of humans.” I was trying to distance ‘culturism’ from ‘racism’ as much as possible, (fearing that any association with racism could blunt the spread of the memes ‘culturist’ and ‘culturism’).

In fairness to myself, I gave the savvy reader two clues that I was being disingenuous.  One is that my very dismissal of ‘The Bell-Curve” meant that I had read, “The Bell-Curve.”  Anyone familiar with this book knows there are mounds of reliable evidence showing different mental differences between races.  Moreover, I purposely backed up the statement saying there is no reliable evidence with an insubstantial footnote.  While the cited authors (Boyd and Richerson) are giants in their field, the actual reference is to a throw away line. At the time I thought, discerning readers would pick up on such clues. 

But, more importantly, I still stand by my larger point: whereas racism gives you no useful policies, culturism provides a multitude of practical policies.  As I wrote in the book’s introduction, people cannot change their race.  And, if you think my nation, the United States of America, is going to become white again, you’re dreaming.  That can only happen through the horror of a race war.  It’s a bad idea. On the other hand, culturism gives you ample workable policies, such as stopping Muslim immigration and promoting a positive view of American history inside and outside of schools.  We can identify and protect our culture.

 One further salvo from the book’s introduction on this front: a problem with racism (as well as nativism) is that can easily lead to the simplistic fallacy: black is bad, white is good.  First of all, white culture is in big trouble (check our divorce rate). White race pride demands no refinement. In this vein, white racial pride actually retards needed cultural self-scrutiny. Secondly, the racist point of view ignores the fact that there are many great non-white American patriots and western citizens. Any movement that fails to acknowledge them can only lead to a partial reclamation of America.

Saying ‘Culturist’ Saves Lives and Can Help Save the West!

The San Bernardino jihadi’s neighbors were very suspicious of them.  The Muslims received an unusual number of packages and worked late into the night.  But, their neighbors did not report their suspicions, because people might accuse them of being ‘racist’ or of ‘racial profiling.’[i]  

The Left uses the label ‘racist’ to terrorize people into silence.  This works because they conflate race and culture.  These fascist multiculturalists tell you to ‘celebrate cultural diversity.’  But, as soon as you mention that cultural diversity includes any negative traits, they call you ‘racist.’ 

The term ‘culturist’ exposes their nasty tactics.  The overt reference to ‘culture’ in the word ‘culturist’ makes it clear that we are not discussing race.  Since, ‘multiculturalist’ and their ‘cultural diversity’ slogan acknowledge culture, they cannot refuse to discuss it.  We must force them to stay on the topic of cultural diversity, and its reality, by using the term ‘culturist.’

Remember the slogan, ‘If cultural diversity is real, being culturist makes sense.

Culturists! Here’s How We Fight the ‘Diversity is Strength’ Slogan!

“Diversity is our strength” is an Orwellian slogan. Just one week after the recent Paris terror attacks, Obama declared, “We can all do our part by upholding the values of tolerance and diversity and equality that help keep America strong.”[i] This slogan is frequently used to argue for accepting refugees.  There are several ways in which culturists can counter this dangerous assertion.

One way to respond to the diversity slogan is sheer outrage!  Are the victims of the Paris attack stronger because of diversity?! Do you really think Paris is stronger because of diversity!?  Terror attacks and the subsequent subway / infrastructure lockdowns make the complete idiocy of the idea that diversity brings strength.  And this justifies our screaming, “By saying diversity is our strength, you’re spitting in the face of terror’s victims!!”

Screaming! Why? Because the shock of being yelled at will create a Pavlovian effect.  If leftists know it might evoke an adrenaline-backed rebuke, they’ll hesitate.  And we need to do this as it is disgusting to say ‘diversity is our strength’ right after a terrorist attack. And, while they might go all ‘Boy George’ on you and start to cry, such disgusting remarks merit yelling.

And, we must yell because saying, “Diversity is our strength,” fundamentally undermines the West. Unlike multiculturalists, culturists say we have a traditional majority culture and a right to protect and promote it. The ‘diversity’ slogan says Muslims are just as western as Christians. It says Arabic speaking Syrians are western too. Our demographics, history and history of culturist immigration policy counter this multicultural lie.[ii]  This slogan endangers us by justifying opening our borders to everyone, including our historic enemies.

ISLAM IS THE ENEMY! NOT ISIS, NOT AL-QUAEDA

Islam is behind the Paris bombings, the Mali hostage situation, 7/7 in London, and all the other more than 20,000 terrorist attacks since 9/11.  Media must stop saying “ISIS has claimed responsibility,” “The Taliban did it,” or “We’re looking for the ringleader.” When they ask such questions, they back up the multicultural idea that the religion is okay, it’s only a few bad apples that are giving Islam a bad name.  To win this battle, we must identify the enemy properly.  It is Islam!

“But, Culturist John,” you might ask, “You’re not saying all Muslims are terrorists, are you?”  “No.  But, I am a culturist, I believe cultural diversity is real.  And, Muhammed was a warrior. He fought in over 20 battles, established a theocracy and beheaded dissenters. If you follow Muhammed, you’re glorifying an expansionist theocratic killer. You’re part of a religion dedicated to violently taking over the world.”

Multiculturalists deny that Islam is behind all these attacks.  Ironically, multiculturalists tell you that all religions are the same.  They say, “Islam is a religion of peace. We’re only hunting a few groups: ISIS, the Taliban, Al-Quaeda, Lone Wolves. Then all will be peaceful again.”  BS.  If you follow Muhammed, you glorify a theocratic warrior killer! As a culturist I am dedicated to convincing the multicultural West that cultural diversity is real.  Islam as a whole is behind all of these attacks.

Culturist US Immigration Policy History

Culturist history for ya!  

Why My New Version of ‘Imagine’ Must Crush Lennon’s

I recently recorded a ‘right-wing’ culturist version of JohnLennon’s leftist-anthem, ‘Imagine.” In fact, I have long had a physical revulsion to the destructive platitudes in Lennon’s song.  But, with communists and Muslims attacking, the song is now more dangerous than ever.  My mock version may prove to be the antidote to his cultural virus.  But, if that doesn’t work, we may need to decapitate every zombie who is spreading Lennon’s version.  If we don’t dismantle Lennon’s hymn, it could destroy the West.

Lennon’s anthem asks Western people to imagine there’s ‘no religion’ and ‘no countries:’ A borderless heaven. When we’re being inundated and attacked by Islam at every turn; pretending Islam will just disappear when we all ‘imagine’ it, is suicidal. Rather than imagine there is no religion, we must be aware that one religion, Islam, is coming for your throat!   Lennon admits he’s a dreamer.  We need to wake up and stop sleep-walking towards the cliff that Lennon’s stupefying incantation is sending us towards.

Even the way the hippy prophet uses the word ‘religion’ is dangerous.  Not all ‘religions’ are the same.  He thinks imagining no Christianity is good.  Christianity is the best religion ever.  It teaches the value of the individual, it is the basis of western civilization. Lennon’s religion-equating, ‘brotherhood of man,’ formula is at the root of the multicultural blindness that justifies our letting ‘refugees’ into our nations. Imagine Christianity as the official religion of the West.  Why? Christianity is kind. Cultural diversity is real.  Evil Exists. It is called Islam.

Imagine no possessions?  When Lennon goes into this communist reverie I want to vomit. When I lived in New York, I used to sarcastically imagine all the people living in his exclusive, guarded building, ‘the Dakota.’ When Lennon uses ‘greed’ to explain hunger and inequality, he insinuates that the blame for poor nations’ maladies comes from nations who have possessions - the West.  This means we must let in ‘economic refugees’ because our ‘greed’ caused their poverty.  Bullocks.  Our western cultures produce.  Theirs sucks.  Cultural diversity is real. Their poverty is their fault. We owe them nothing. 

So, imagine a world wherein everyone sings my culturist version of Imagine. It would make the West strong and ready to defend itself.  But, if people persist in spreading Lennon’s commu-tard dream about a borderless, heavenly, homogenous nether-world where Islam leaves us alone and people from backwards cultures get “their fair share” of our civilization, we need to see them for what they are: stupefied, destructive, somnambulist, unthinking, virus-spreading zombies weakening our defenses.  Aim for their heads!

No!! Yes! Culturist John Sings!!

Full Metal Jacket: The Culturist Implications

Here is my problem: I am promoting a culturist version of Darwinian literary studies and very few political activists see an urgent and vital connection between Darwinian literary studies and their patriotic cause.  Fortunately, Stanley Kubrick’s powerful Vietnam War film, Full Metal Jacket, makes the connection clear.

Kubrick’s film follows the career of one recruit ‘Joker’ (Matthew Bodine) go from boot camp to the war, wherein he works as a reporter / propagandist for the military newspaper.  In this position, Joker sardonically parodies the war. But, after the Tet offensive, the propaganda chief panics that newsman Walter Cronkite will go say the war is unwinnable.  At this point, the chief stops humoring Joker and sends him into combat.  

We all know how disagreement over the Vietnam War’s meaning tore up the United States.  But, we must also come to see the importance of narrative in current politics.  Black Lives Matter, foreign aid, and the resettling of refugees into the West are justified by a narrative that paints the West as having sins for which to atone.  These would all come to a halt if the publicly largely believed the West were a unique cultural gem that needed protection.

Famously, Full Metal Jacket portrays raw indoctrination in boot camp.  The opening shot shows the recruits getting their heads shaved: their old self is to die, so that they might be reborn.  The drill instructor then proceeds to call them ‘gay,’ ‘ladies,’ and ‘fat bodies,’ while mercilessly running them through drills and routines. This continues until the recruit called ‘fat body’ kills the drill instructor and himself.
