On September 1, 1939, Nazi Germany invaded Poland. World War II began. Today, millions around the world suffer from war. Nationalism, exclusion, and contempt for humanity are gaining ground again. Peace begins with humanity. Never again war. Never again fascism. (translated)
In Birmingham riecht es nach Bürgerkrieg. Die zweitgrößte Stadt Englands hatte erst kürzlich einen pakistanisch-stämmigen Oberbürgermeister ins Amt gebracht, der nur unzureichend Englisch spricht. Daily Mail: »Der Stadtrat von Birmingham plant, britische Flaggen und St.-Georgs-Flaggen von Laternenmasten zu entfernen, „um die öffentliche Sicherheit zu gewährleisten“. Der Stadtrat – der von einer Koalition aus Liberaldemokraten, Grünen und Unabhängigen geführt wird – hat gestern rechtliche Schritte eingeleitet, um die Flaggen zu verbieten. Sollte eine einstweilige Verfügung erlassen werden, könnte jedem, der ohne Genehmigung des Stadtrats von Birmingham Flaggen wie den Union Jack in der Nähe von Straßen hisst, eine Geldstrafe in unbegrenzter Höhe oder eine Freiheitsstrafe von bis zu zwei Jahren drohen. Dies folgt auf eine landesweite Debatte darüber, ob britische Flaggen und St.-Georgs-Flaggen erlaubt sein sollten, wobei einige sie als Zeichen des Patriotismus betrachten, während andere sie als Ausdruck von Nationalismus ansehen, der darauf abzielt, ethnische Minderheiten einzuschüchtern. Eine Kampagne namens „Raise The Colours“ führte dazu, dass Tausende von St.-Georgs-Flaggen an Laternenmasten, Kreisverkehren und Häusern im gesamten Vereinigten Königreich angebracht wurden. Auslöser waren lokale Auseinandersetzungen in Birmingham, nachdem die Stadtverwaltung die Flaggen von öffentlichen Laternenmasten entfernt hatte. Der Stadtrat von Birmingham erklärte gestern, er werde rechtliche Schritte einleiten, um das Aufhängen der Flaggen zu unterbinden, nachdem Mitarbeiter, die mit deren Entfernung beauftragt waren, Belästigungen und Einschüchterungen ausgesetzt waren. Jane Baston, Stadträtin der Grünen und Mitglied des Kabinetts von Birmingham für Gleichstellung, Gemeinschaften und soziale Gerechtigkeit, sagte: „Der Stadtrat verfolgt einen rechtmäßigen, verhältnismäßigen und auf Beweisen basierenden Ansatz gegenüber unerlaubten Anbringungen auf öffentlichen Straßen.“« https://t.co/UIKx0oh7j3 via @DailyMail #Birmingham #Bürgerkrieg #Flaggen
Milo Yiannopoulos, a British far-right polemicist and fervent advocate of white nationalism, was expelled from the United States to the United Kingdom after being apprehended for illegal stay in the country, despite his calls to strengthen the powers of immigration police. (translated)
From Powerlessness to Collective Madness The world has gone crazy, but there is a pattern behind it. More people seem to be losing their grip on reality, swept up in ideological movements that demand conformity and punish dissent. This progression begins with powerlessness, continues with possession, and ends in resentment disguised as justice. The first stage is the breakdown of what can be called the power process. Human beings need to set goals, work toward them, and achieve them in order to feel whole. Once, daily life revolved around hunting, farming, building, and creating. Today, survival and progress are often managed by vast systems and institutions. As a result, many people feel alienated and powerless. They turn to movements for a sense of purpose, drawing progress not from their personal lives, but from the causes they embrace. Carl Jung described what happens next. Inside a movement, individuals can become possessed by collective identities. Those who refuse the difficult task of becoming themselves may dissolve into the group mind. This is why ideologies such as communism, nationalism, feminism, socialism, and environmentalism can exert such power: they offer ready-made identities and moral clarity. Individuals gradually stop thinking for themselves and become mouthpieces for the collective identity that has seized them. Nietzsche revealed the final stage: resentment. In *Thus Spoke Zarathustra*, he described the “tarantulas”—moral preachers who spin ideological webs in the name of justice. They claim to champion the weak, but their motivation may be envy and revenge, cloaked in noble language. Their goal is not always to uplift, but to tear down the strong. When the world seems to have gone mad, the pattern is clear: people lose the power process in their own lives, surrender themselves to ideologies, and then act out their resentment as justice. The cure is not another movement, but the difficult task of reclaiming individuality in an age of collective madness.
Jag måste medge att jag är oerhört imponerad av Gustav Kasselstrand. Jag hoppas att han fortsätter på samma bana och inte säljer ut sig om han och hans parti får någon form av makt. Jag klarar inte av att se ännu ett nationalistiskt parti gå samma väg som Jimmie Åkesson och SD. #politik #nationalism #Sverige
The Left Didn’t Replace Religion… It Became One Many leaders in the West may reject God, but they often believe with near-religious fervor in something else. The progressive worldview mirrors religion: people still crave meaning, so it gets redirected. Science is treated like scripture interpreted by an expert priesthood; capitalism becomes the fallen world; revolution is purification; climate change is apocalypse with repentance; gender identity is the soul, the “true self” trapped in a betraying body. Without metaphysics, evil must be placed in the material world. For many on the left, Hitler functions as a secular Satan, so anything tied to him can be treated as morally contaminated—nationalism, borders, ethnic identity, masculinity, Europeans, industry, and Western traditions. Jung’s “shadow” is projected onto an enemy, letting adherents feel morally pure while avoiding the harder work of facing their own capacity for evil. Where Christianity locates sin inside every heart (“original sin”), the secular version relocates the flaw into the world—into whiteness, the West, nationalism, borders, or any chosen symbol. This framework makes moral judgment easy and singular: if Hitler is evil, then opponents become “fascists,” “Nazis,” or “Hitler.” Disagreement turns from political to moral and existential. This isn’t a claim that progressives can’t see evil elsewhere—it’s that this framework has become an instinctive moral compass. The ruling class isn’t truly secular: it has its own faith, and increasingly expects you to live by it.
The death of Ratko Mladic leads to division in Serbia, with some viewing him as a hero and others fearing a rise in nationalism and genocide denial under the influence of political leaders like President Vucic. (translated)
GIVE MLADIĆ THE OSAMA FUNERAL. Ratko Mladić must not be turned into a martyr of Serbian nationalism. He was convicted of genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes. Europe must make sure that his death does not create a new shrine for genocide denial, nationalist rallies https://t.co/uYWvbxN4IE #Mladić #Genocide #Justice #SR #EU

Färgen grön existerar inte för godhjärtade journalister på DN som @niklasorrenius et al. Iom att det inte råder konsensus om hur mkt blått som behöver blandas i gult för att det ska bli grönt så är grönt en etnonationalistisk högermyt. #grönt #journalistik # nationalism

Alexander Christiansson (SD) har beskrivits som Sveriges nästa kulturminister om Tidöpartierna vinner valet. Men vilket land och folk arbetar han egentligen för? Jerusalem Prayer Breakfast, en sionistisk lobbygrupp, anordnade ett stort möte tillsammans med Livets ord i Sverige år 2024. Och det är från just den Israeldyrkande frikyrkligheten som Christiansson fått sionismen, ända från barnsben. "Det finns som en del av mitt DNA", sa han om sitt stöd för Israel, i sitt tal på konferensen i Stockholm. Han beskrev hur han blev politiskt intresserad 2018 och blev invald i riksdagen samma år. "Den första motion jag la i Sveriges riksdag var att flytta ambassaden från Tel Aviv till Jerusalem". Han passade också på att be om ursäkt för partiets historia, och tog avstånd från "vad mitt parti gjorde på 1990-talet". "SD har varit väldigt stigmatiserat väldigt länge. Vi hade några grundare som hade vissa riktigt sunkiga värderingar. Jag är ödmjuk nog att erkänna det. Men jag blev inte involverad i politik för vad mitt parti gjorde på 1990-talet, utan för att jag anser att partiet idag kämpar för det som jag verkligen känner är rättfärdigt. (=underförstått, kampen för Israel). Publiken bestod av hundratals personer – många av dem makthavare och opinionsbildare. På plats fanns två parlamentariker från Knesset: Ohad Tal och Simon Davidson. 🇸🇪 Den 13 september är det val. Rösta på ett parti som sätter det egna landet och folket främst. Inga främmande lojaliteter, bara svensk nationalism. Rösta på Alternativ för Sverige. #Sverige #Politik #Nationalism
Many of the soldiers serving in the West Bank come from the settlements themselves. This photo shows a very fine example of the messianic nationalism whose influence continues to grow in Israel. Read about the subject @Charles1045 (translated)
