The problem with capitalism

As you have probably realised from the title, this post will be about capitalism. Many right wingers, even authoritarians, nationalists et cetera, support capitalism and the free market. However, the truth about capitalism is that, although it has the right ideas (competition, success for the hard worker and the superior one), it has many holes that lead straight to degeneracy.
As we all know, in capitalism, corporations and international businesses try to convince the people that they are poor, creating that way more needs which can be later satisfied by the services of the very same corporations. They are basically trying to make the people try to spend more. This is an extremely dangerous vulnerability of capitalism that if left unfiltered can damage the society. Let us consider this example: western females tend to spend a considerable amount of money on make up, clothes and fashion. Many of these needs are new and haven't existed up until the last century. Corporations like these would get double the money if men were to start spending an equal amount of money on fashion. This is one of the reasons why lately men have been wearing make up, shaving their legs etc. This tendency has blurred the lines between male and female, making it easier for leftists and the N.W.O to spread their propaganda. Think about it, just two months ago all huge online service companies supported the "LGBT month" by changing their logos, releasing videos etc, not really because they care, but because they gain from it. They gain the support and love of the ignorant liberal. They become "trendy" and relatable to the youth etc.
tl;dr Companies care more about their income than their people.
My suggestion is not far from capitalism, in the sense that it has the same core idea: competition, but at the same time has filtered such holes. To you I present: Corporatism. Basically Capitalism with some government intervention to filter out the degeneracy. This system helped Italy and a variation of it is the reason why Nazi Germany was so powerful economically.

The speech of Constantine XI Palaeologos, the last emperor of the Imperium Graecorum

May 29, 1453 - May 29, 2019.

The walls have fallen, our hearts have not. The Greek emperor, Constantine Palaeologos, right before the fall of Constantinople by Mehmed II, gave a great speech to his warriors - a speech that has remained in the heart of the Greek nation.



Most noble leader, illustrious tribunes, generals, most courageous fellow soldiers, and all loyal honest citizens! You know well that the hour has come: the enemy of our faith wishes to oppress us even more closely by sea and land with all his engines and skill to attack us with the entire strength of this siege force, as a snake about to spew its venom; he is in a hurry to devour us, like a savage lion. For this reason, I am imploring you to fight like men with brave souls, as you have done from the beginning up to this day, against the enemy of our faith. I hand over to you my glorious, famous, respected, noble city, the shining Queen of cities, our homeland. You know well, my brothers, that we have four obligations in common, which force us to prefer death over survival: first our faith and piety; second our homeland; third, the emperor anointed by the Lord and forth; our relatives and friends. “Well, my brothers, if we must fight for one of these obligations, we will be even more liable under the command strength of all four; as you can clearly understand. If God grants victory to the impious because of my own sins, we will endanger our lives for our holy faith, which Christ gave us with his own blood. This is most important of all. Even if one gains the entire world but loses his soul in the process, what will it benefit! Second, we will be deprived of such famous homeland and of our liberty. Third, our empire, renowned in the past but presently humbled, low and exhausted, will be ruled by a tyrant and an impious man. Fourth, we will be separated from our dearest children, wives, and relatives.
“This wretch of a Sultan has besieged our city up to now for fifty-seven days with all his engines and strength; he has relaxed the blockade neither day nor night, but, by the grace of Christ, our Lord, who sees all things, the enemy has often been repelled, up to now, from our walls with shame and dishonor. Yet now too, my brothers, feel no cowardice, even if small parts of our fortifications have collapsed from the explosions and engine missiles, as you can see, we made all possible, necessary repairs. We are placing all hope in the irresistible glory of God. Some have faith in armament, others in the cavalry, might and numbers but we believe in the name of our Lord, our God and Savior, and second, in our arms and strength granted to us by divine power. “I know the countless hordes of the impious will advance against us, according to their custom, violently, confidently and with great courage and force in order to overwhelm and wear out our few defenders with hardship. They attempt to frighten us with loud yells and innumerable battle cries. But you are all familiar with their chattering and I need say no more about it. For a long time, they will continue so and will also release over us countless rocks, all sorts of arrows and missiles, like the sand of the sea. But I hope that such things will not harm us; I see, greatly rejoice, and nourish with hopes in my mind that even if we are few, you are all experienced and seasoned warriors- courageous, brave, and well prepared. Protect your heads with shields in combat and battle. Keep your right hand, armed with the sword, extended in front of you at all times. Your helmets, breastplates and suits of armor are fully sufficient together with your other weapons and will prove very effective in battle. Our enemies have no and use no such weapons. You are protected inside the walls, while they will advance without cover and with toil. “For these reasons, my fellow soldiers, prepare yourselves, be firm, and remain valiant, for the pity of God, Take your example from the few elephants of the Carthaginians and how they dispersed the numerous cavalry of the Romans with their noise and appearance. If one dumb beast put another to flight, we, the masters of horses and animals, can surely even do better against our advancing enemies, since they are dumb animals, worse even than pigs. Present your shield, swords, arrows, and spears to them, imagining that you are a hunting party after wild boars, so that the impious may learn that they are dealing not with dumb animals but with their lords and masters, the descendants of the Greeks and the Romans. “You are well aware that this irreligious Sultan, the enemy of our holy faith, violated for no good reason the peace treaty we had with him and disregarded his numerous oaths without a second thought. Suddenly, he appeared and built his castle in the straights of Asomatosso he might be able to inflict daily harm on us.
Then he put our farms, gardens, parks, and houses to the torch, while he killed and enslaved as many of our Christian brothers as he found; he broke the treaty of friendship. He befriended the inhabitants of Galata, the wretches rejoice over this, as they are unaware of the parable of the Farmer’s son who was roasting snails and said, “Oh stupid creature,” etc. Well my brothers, since he started the siege and the blockade, every day he opens his fathomless mouth and is seeking an opportunity to devour us and this city, which thrice-blessed Constantine the Great founded and dedicated to the all holy most chaste Mother of God, our lad, Mar the eternal virgin. She became the Queen of Cities, the shield and aid of our homeland, the shelter of Christians, the hope and joy of all wishes to destroy this city, which was once proud and blooming like a rose of the field. “I can tell you that this city mastered the entire universe; She placed beneath her feet Pontus, Armenia, paphlagonia, The Amazonian lands, Cappadocia, Galatia, Media, Georgian Colchis, Bosphoros, Albania, Syria, Cilicia, Mesopotamia, Phoenicia, Palestine, Arabia, Judea, Bactria, Scythia, Macedonia, Thessaly, Hellas, Boeotia, Locris, Aetolia, Arcarnania, Achaea, the Peloponnese, Epirus, Illyria, Lykhnites, the Adriatic, Italy, Tuscany, the Celts, and Galatian Celts, Spain up to Cadiz, Libya, Mauritania, Ethiopia, Beledes, Scude, Numidia, Africa and Egypt. Now he wants to enslave her and throw the yoke upon the Mistress of Citie, our holy churches, where the Holy Trinity was worshipped, where the Holy Ghost was glorified in hymns, where angels were heard praising in chant the deity of and the incarnation of God’s word, he wants to turn into shrines of his blasphemy, shrines of the mad and false Prophet, Mohammed, as well as into stables for his horses and camels. “Consider then, my brother and comrades in arms, how the commemoration of our death, our memory, fame and freedom can be rendered eternal.”Source

Why we use the "Nazi" salute

Every 4th of August, all proud Greek nationalists use the so-called Nazi salute to express their love and loyalty to the Patrida, despite all the criticism they have to deal with by doing it. It needs to be well understood that the salute was not used just by the Nazis. It is the most simple form of greeting, and it's foolish to believe that nobody had used it before Adolf Hitler. The reason, us, Hellenic Ethnicists use it is because Metaxas did.


The Salute in Greece was used by the Metaxist fascist youth organization of Greece, EON.


It was also used among Greek klephts during the Hellenic Revolution.


In fact, we can trace it back to a Renaissance painting depicted Roman soldiers, that is why it is commonly known as the "Roman salute".


Although its usage in the Roman times is disputed, there is some evidence it was also used in Ancient Greece in certain periods & city-states, that is also somewhat disputed. Here's a statue of Pyrrhus of Epirus:


We are proud to use our ancestors, and we are proud to use this salute.

The genos

The concept of the genos/yenos (γένος) seems to be a very specific notion, which only exists in Greece, or at least is mostly prevalent there. Whenever our ancestors made sacrifices for our nation, they said they did it for our genos.



  • "Us, the genos of the Rhomans[..]" -Chronicle of Morea, a 14th-century book, written by an unknown author. By "Rhomans/Romans/Rhomhaoi", the author is referring to the Greek-speaking Orthodox Christians of the Imperium Graecorum, the Greeks.
  • "The genos of the Hellenes, if it has survived until today, [...] it owns it to a miracle."-Kazantzakis
  • "The Hellenic genos could prevail if it were politically united."-Aristotle


This word was especially used during the Greek war of independence by Kolokotronis, Rigas Pheraios and others.
From the context, one would assume the word is Greek for "nation". This is incorrect - the Greek word for nation is "ethnos". Instead, genos means race, but it is a more complicated than that. It means common ancestry, and can be used in all scales. For example: oikogenia (also latinized as Oikoyeneia/Ikoyenia, Οικογένεια) literally translates to "house-race" (Oikos = house), and it means "family", while genos itself can mean a whole racial group, or an extended family. Etymologically, the words gene, genetics, etc. are derived from this word.



This word and its usage show how ancestry still plays an important role in the Greek society. Indeed, Greece is one of the few European countries whose citizens believe that common ancestry is just as crucial to becoming a member of the nation, as other factors, such as culture and language. Of course, the people who actually believe that in the country are a minority, but still a lot when compared to other European nations that have been destroyed by degeneracy.

The myth of homosexuality in Ancient Greece

Modern-day LGBT activists, in an effort to enforce their ideas to the general public, create lies and exaggerations about the classical era of the Western Civilization. One of those myths is that the Ancient Greeks accepted & supported homosexuality. To be fair, there were certain periods of degeneracy in Ancient Greece, where non-intellectual Greeks accepted homosexuality (in the form pederasty, which is the modern Greek word for child molestation. Read more about it here), however, the truth is greatly exaggerated by those who have an agenda. They make it sound as if homosexuality was widely accepted by everyone, as if homosexuality was known throughout all of the periods of Ancient Greece and as if it was known in all of Greece, not just a couple city-states. A.k.a lies.

Plato - Credit


Here's what the intellectuals of Ancient Greece really thought about homosexuality & pederasty:

"It is very clear that when a man and a woman come together to reproduce the species, it gives them a pleasure that is completely in accord with nature, while the relationship between men (Arrenon) or between women (Thyleon) is against nature. It is a truly shameful act, especially if it includes rape (Aselgeia)." 
~Plato - The Laws (636) Read more here.

"To have relationships with males without their consent, this is rape and robbery; if, again, this happens with their consent, then this is the weakness (or softness, "malthakotita", related to modern day "malaka") and femininity ("thyliprepia", acting like a woman) on their part, which is against nature, as Plato says, 'to bear and to accept semen like animals.'."
~Plutarch - 751 δ-ε

"It is not for the female to behave like a man, against nature, nor for the male to lose all dignity and transform into a woman."
~Lucian of Samosata (a Syrian Hellenistic Philosopher) - "Erotes"

As you can clearly understand from the quotes, homosexuality was existent in ancient Greece (else the scholars wouldn't even talk about it) but it was not the norm, or widely accepted.

Who are the Barbarians?

In Ancient & Modern Greece

In Hellenism, the distinction between Greek and non-Greek/foreigner/Xenos is very important. Since ancient times, the Greeks used two main categories for the people: "us" and "them". This is evidence of a common Greek national awareness among the politically divided ancient Greeks.
The word Barbarian ("Βάρβαροι") was used, and is still used, by the Greeks to refer to all the people who were not linguistically Hellenic (aka non-Greeks, since language was an important element of Hellenism), or had not been linguistically Hellenized. Barbarian as a word has a very negative connotation, nowadays, and it seems to have been like that since the classical era, although it wasn't originally meant to be used that way. This is because everyone who was not a Hellenophone was considered uncivilized and primitive, so the term eventually came to mean what it means today.

Longobard Barbarian warriors

It's important to note that it didn't always mean non-Greek, even in ancient Greece, and that many Greeks used it against other Greeks. For example, Prodicus of Ceos called "barbarian" the Aeolian dialect (a clearly Greek dialect), Athenian scholars called the Macedonians "barbaric", clearly for political reasons, since Athens' position as the city-leader of Hellenism was threatened by the rapidly growing Macedonian Kingdom, et cetera.

In the Roman empire

Once the Romans conquered the Hellenic world, the idea of such a distinction attracted them greatly, to a point where they decided to copy it and apply it to their own Latin civilization. Of course, since the idea was originally Greek, and since their civilization was influenced by the Greeks, they could not exclude the Greeks from the "us". So the term's meaning changed from "non-Greeks" to "non-Greeks and non-Latins".

Gaelic "barbarian" in front of Roman emperor Gaius Julius Caesar

Everyone who did not speak Greek or Latin was considered a Barbarian (which at the time also meant primitive and uncivilized). More specifically the term was used for Germanic tribes like the Goths, the Visigoths, the Longobards, as well as the Celts, the Gauls, the Berbers, and even the Thracians and the Illyrians, two Hellenic-like peoples who probably spoke languages that were similar to Greek.

In the Imperium Graecorum, medieval Greeks used the term barbarian was, again, for non-Hellenophones (even westerners), but mostly for Turks.

Today

Today the term is still used by modern Greeks to refer to non-Greeks, but usually in a joking manner, while few are the Greeks who use it with hatred towards the subject. The term may be used for all non-Greeks, no matter whether those are civilized, Europeans, whites, etc or not, although philhellenes and those who appreciated Hellenism are excluded.

Also, certain White Nationalist groups use it, but it is ironic (especially when used by Nordicists and Germans against Southern Europeans like Greeks and Italians), considering what the term actually means. I cannot help but cringe every time I see that happen.

The Megali Idea in theory

Ever since Greece became an autonomous state in the early 19th century, the idea of liberating the rest of the Hellenic homelands has been a major national objective. At the time the vast majority of ethnic Greeks lived outside the borders of our Kingdom. Greeks outside of Greece suffered in the hands of barbarians - mostly Turks & Bulgarians. The atrocities committed by those groups against us and our people have not been forgotten, and will never be.
Here, I will not talk about the Megali Idea as a historical political movement, because it is something that still divides the Greek nationalist community. Instead, I will explain 1) The Megali Idea in theory and 2) Analyze its current importance.


The Megali Idea in theory


The Megali Idea is a Greek nationalist concept that suggests the liberation of all the Hellenic lands that are still within foreign borders. A large part of the Megali Idea has already been achieved through the Balkan wars, but our defeat in the Greco-Turkish war of 1919 has left us, Greek patriots, with our hearts in pain for our lost fatherlands.
The lands included in the Megali Idea are compromised of Western Anatolia (Ionia, Bythinia, Mysia/Aeolis, Caria/Doris), Eastern Rumelia (or Eastern Thrace), the southern Black sea shores (Pontus), the island of Cyprus and Northern Epirus. Other versions also include Cappadocia and more extreme versions even parts of Ukraine, southern Italy, while some even suggest Alexandria. Macedonia, Thessaly, the Ionian & Aegean Islands, Southern Epirus, and south-western Thrace are also included but have already been annexed by Greece. 
In all but a name, the Megali Idea is the notion of a unified Greater Greece. That larger and stronger version of our country would have Constantinople as its capital and ideally only have citizens that are of Greek ancestry.



The Megali Idea today


After the huge and abrupt decline of Greek presence in Anatolia (because of the Greek genocide and the population exchange between Greece and Turkey), the Megali Idea has lost its relevance in the modern Greek nation, at least for the majority of Greeks. There are, however, still places outside Greece that have a majority Greek Christian population. Cyprus is currently the most crucial region of the Megali Idea, with the whole island outside the Greek state, and a chunk of it controlled by our eternal enemy. Northern Epirus is even less talked about despite all the injustices committed constantly by the Albanians against the native Greek population. Southern Italy also has an ethnic Greek population but the matter is completely neglected, which can probably be excused because of the fact that Greek national awareness is quite weak among Greeks there. The neglect of the topic of Northern Epirus, however, cannot be excused. There are still Greeks there, who speak the Greek language, practice the Greek Orthodox faith and are proud of their Hellenic heritage! The recent self-sacrifice of Hellenic ethnomartyr Constantine Katsifas brought the issue into the spotlight for a while but it seems like nothing has changed even a year later.
