Address to the Forum Moderators.
Moody and Aloysha,
I find the ongoing debate most interesting; it is my feeling aftre reading both sides that each of you could still present a unified philosophical/political view without much compromise.
For starters, may I suggest:
1. Moody take a look at the following -

I believe Aloysha is suggesting the following -
" Such an understanding helps dispel the despair that besets good people when they succumb to the illusion that our cultural decline is somehow pre-ordained, and that nothing can be done to arrest it. Understanding the covert machinations of our enemies is also necessary in order to anticipate their moves and organize effective resistance -- and it is only through organized, principled defense of our heritage of liberty that the culture war can ultimately be won."
2. Aloysha take a look at the following -
"From the maternal care the way leads to the paternal, and there we meet with the highest of all the time-symbols that have come into existence within a Culture, the State. The meaning of the child to the mother is the future, the continuation, namely, of her own life, and mother-love is as it were, a welding of two discontinuous individual existences; likewise the meaning of the state to the man is comradeship in arms for the protection of hearth and home, wife and child, and for the insurance of the whole people of its future and its efficacy.
The state is the inward form of a nation, its "form" in the athletic sense, and history, is the high meaning, is the State conceived as kinesis and not as kinema. The Woman as Mother is, and the Man as Warrior and Politician makes, History." [Spengler, Decline - p.137]
I believe Moody is offering this interwoven and essential relationship between Nation/Mother and State/Man.
Moody and Aloysha,
Why not use Gramscian techniques on our racial enemies, control them, convince them, instead of applying Marxist ideas to our Aryan-European values? We are creators, not reactionaries who borrow and subvert other doctrines. I agree with Moody here, and Aloysha doesn't really lose.
Why not define a new meaning for Capitalism on the basis of Fair Trade than free trade? In that case, Capitalism is still Racialist and 'International' - whereby one could deal with fellow Aryan-like communities (the Japanese, Arabs, etc.) I agree with Aloysha here, and Moody has not lost anything here either.
On a personal note,
Moody - your flair for bringing thought alive in so few words is incredible.
Aloysha - your energy and sheer persistance is simply amazing.
Hail the best of both ideas!, Our Europe beckons.
