Speaking of Tom Sunic, what do you think about the Council of Conservative Citizens and the American Third Position Party?

[RedShirtArmy]

@TheAmericanDefender Well, I'm a Southern nationalist so my focus is not on reforming the US but on preserving and advancing the Southern people and ultimately re-establishing Southern independence. I'm with the League of the South, the largest Southern nationalist organisation.

Are you familiar with the author/intellectual Richard Weaver? He is a famous conservative writer with a strong southern agrarian streak. I highly recomment his short but potent book, "Ideas Have Consequences."

@TheBullionBull I havent heard of him but it sounds interesting.

Hope y'all enjoy this conversation with Dr Sunic.

@TheAmericanDefender Both want to continue to prop up the American empire only the white version. Many of us see what has become known as Americanism to be the problem and don't feel the America that came as a result of 1865 is any America we want to support any longer. I don't know much about the COC, but to me the A3P isn't organized enough and has too many chiefs and not enough indians. They are defined at this point mostly by slogan.There is potential, but I agree with Red shirt.

Jackburton2009, it all hinges on what you mean by "technology". When you use a pitchfork, that is technology. If you throw the straw or hay with your hands, that is not. Just saying.

@RedShirtArmy Amen brother!

[jackburton2009]

Dr. Tom Sunic is one of the best thinkers and speakers we have on the racialist right and he is sympathetic to the South so I consider him welcome and if he wanted to make a permanent home in the South we'd be happy to have a White man of his caliber.

I enjoy gardening and nature, but I wouldn't want to give up technology. I prefer a natural synthesis of both.

Agrarianism is a wide-ranging topic with many possible avenues for future discussion. Thanks and I hope you can have more talks about it.

It is very hard to convey "sentiment" and "tradition" to people who are unfamiliar with an idea like agrarianism. How do you explain things like the peace of waking up to the clear air of a peaceful farm? I think this is why so many Southerners use poetry and song to convey their way of life - there are so many abstract elements of Southern living.
