Before you jump on me too hard about my criticism of Yockey, remember that my cohorts are the reason that you HAVE Yockey to read. Yockey is brilliant and is one of the major bases of the survival of our movement through the grim years. But nobdy can write a whole book without being WRONG some.
My father used to say, “A major difference between a little man and big man is that a big man makes big MISTAKES.” Everything I criticize about Yockey I would take for granted from any other author of his time.
So why did a critic like me fight for Imperium?
The Artist Formerly Known as Nobody answers that:
“Every night, before I go to bed, I open my copy of Imperium and read Chapter One, “Perspective,” as a reminder that we are far more than what we see before ourselves in the mirror.”
In a time when all we had was Rand and John Birchers, Yockey was an anchor. He STILL is. His book is beautiful, his perspective is right. His early 1940s genetics is being washed away withor without us.
Does anybody know abut the Ten Commandments? In there, God Himself issupposed to have written: “Thou shalt have no OTHER gods BEFORE me.”
Everybody now agrees that what the oniscient, omnipotent,but illiterate being MEANT to say was, “There are NO gods BUT me.”
Jesus just got rid of the whole confusionand made it two commandments that were to the point.
Maybe we should just let Yockey say what he said.

I’d be interested to learn more about the history of the pro-white movement since WW2, and Bob, you’re in a unique position to tell it. What was the lowest point? Who were the ‘lights in the darkness’? When were the false dawns? What was the movement’s attitude towards Reagan/Thatcher? Who were the false prophets? When did you start feeling real optimism for the future? etc etc.
I feel like the kid at the front of the class with his hand in the air saying, “Please Sir, what was it like when you were at school?”
