No manjaws, no tats, no blue hair, BMIs under 23 and glowing with feminine energy. These photos of Olde America are painful to look at, knowing how much we have lost since then.
Idle thought: how much influence does photography have on cultural continuity? Will photographs save America from the fates of other empires? When Rome was declining, Romans didn’t have photos of Olde Rome to remind them of what they were losing. They had myths, fading generational memories, and sculpture, but if they had photos would they have evaded their collapse?
If we had no mid-century photos, would we have forgotten by now what American women, and America, used to be? Would we be able to fondly, vividly, and instantly recall that America was once a shining titty on a hill?
Because we have photos and can look back at a better America, will it be the secret ingredient so many others before us were missing, that steels our hearts to save a dying nation? I wonder.
***
A reader writes,
Roman homes were full of busts and death masks of forebears which were worn at festivals and funerals. These and all sculptures painted to look lifelike. Oral family tradition strong. Household gods worshipped for a thousand years before Rome. The collapse took a long, long time.
But those were death masks. Ancestors captured in plaster and marble, stiff and quasi-monstrous in their facsimile. Today, we have photos, qualitatively different. We can see bygone America alive and happy and flush with confidence. The hit right to the feels is more visceral.
***
Another reader,
The question is how well does it compete with the shitlib infested media and education monstrosities that attack the culture.
I like to think a faded photo of one smiling, height-weight proportionate 1950s woman can sweep away the lies of a million hate Whitey opinion pieces by our enemies.
***
Another reader,
the marble statues and architecture gave them a false sense of permanence
Yes, ironically those statues might have had the opposite effect on Romans than what was intended: made them complacent instead of feeling the urgency of the loss.
Good Gosh a Mighty. That could be my grandmother.

Hell no, old photos won’t “save America”! Photos depend on context, which is owned by the left in this self-hating culture. Do you realize that Joe and Sue Normie have been programmed to regard such “Pleasantville” images as the shiny-candy veneer concealing great evil and indoctrination and oppression? The 1950s is a curse word. White supremacy! After taking those pictures, they go home and beat their wives and molest their kids!
The photos per se must be regarded as neutral. Context is crucial. I don’t mean to say that the eternal, objective aesthetic of these nostalgic pictures does not seep through and convince the soul to some degree, only that we are well past the stage of relying on it to save us. “Beauty itself doth of itself persuade / The eyes of men without orator” (Shakespeare, Rape of Lucrece). But do not underestimate the power of the resentment of the ugly and their machinations! They sneer ten-times harder than your aesthetic gratitude.
If we do not forcibly take back the cultural context — by uncucked artistry and imagination — the left will continue its dictatorship of the mind by saying, “Who are you going to believe, me or your lying eyes?” and backing it up with real power. Eighty per cent will go along with the least painful path, the herded sheep of wicked shepherds.
The best first move is for Pareto’s 20% to stand up and announce that, despite the shitstorm from the ugly (DT’s “losers”), it is fine to express one’s love for the beautiful. Hence the success of that tiptoe into righteousness: It’s okay to be white.

Au contraire. Pardon my French. Someone should start a kickstarter and use it to purchase a whole collection of 1950s or 1960s mags. If you know some old guys with old magazines lying around in the attic, then get them and scan as many old photos of Heritage America as disk space allows. Save it for posterity, post some on the Alt-Right websites and show the World who America WAS and CAN BE AGAIN.
These are the crazy times. The weak try to get the strong to follow them. The deviants and freaks feel safe to corrupt the innocent and criticize the sane. The inmates are running the asylums. But what cannot go on, will not go on. The House of Cards MUST FALL. Its not a question of if, but WHEN.
What was ours before, will be ours again. Those strong men who still live amongst us, must drop their fears. They must stop being nice and stand up to the infirm, immoral and insane. Its time. The veterans must get over it and FIGHT FOR WHAT THEY CAN GET. Those who will not fight will DIE anyway. There is no such thing as “peace”. Those who will not fight, will lose everything. Even if they still have life, it will be a Hell on Earth.
Fuck “imaging”. We have the images we need. Get them from the attics and basements. Start a kickstarter to buy them on ebay. We have the imaging already. Gather it and SHOW THE WORLD. Build the Strength to Fight.

I’d say it can have an impact, but all about presentation and delivery.
This reminds me of a girl that worked with us briefly. Nice and thin, somewhat feminine, but an “ehh” kind of face. She was sweet. She told me that her friends would have Mad Men parties and would dress up in that era: men in suits, slack; women in dresses, skirts. I thought that was a great idea.
When she said that, I had no doubt that the women enjoyed dressing as such and probably enjoyed being in a submissive or at least more lady-like demeanor.

Another medium: film. I don’t mean archival or historic in mind, but feature films from the past several decades in HD quality. You can rewatch just about any 80s movie with “what was lost” in mind. I happen to have recently seen 1980 ‘Midnight Madness.” Madcap comedy sort of thing, still funny after I first saw it at 13. In this case, point being the landscape that was ALL WHITE. Girls looking relaxed, not puffin up into those ridiculous vamp affectations.
We also just watched is “Little Nicholas” series from France. Set in the 1950s, filmed ten years ago, and very convincingly in terms of historic sensibility (all-White cast and extras, 100%). Watching it with an eye of Landscape Lost, you recall that boys aged 8 could run around in derelict urban lots in packs of French, in this case kids who absolutely owned everything under the sun in their world. (Highly recommended for boys, available subtitled on DVD, also dubbed in may languages).
You come away from those movies with an understanding that there is no requirement to compromise with Diversity. Once the means are in place, we want all of our land back, all of them gone.

I don’t know. This carries the whiff of nostalgia, of conservative shut-ins lamenting “what used to be” in an apartment redolent of decades of farts. Relying on the past for inspiration enervates as much as it energizes, it’s a wash.
We need imagination that brings this world, the here and now, into a recognizable, achievable ideal, a plausible tomorrow rather than the revivification of yesterday. Something alive rather than dead. Forward momentum is the permanent cultural advantage the left has over us, while we are constantly tempted, by our reverence for the past, to be burdened/retarded by it. We turn to the dead for their hard-earned, cumulative wisdom, the lessons learned by billions of man-years of experience. But we cannot rely on them for vitality.
Only artistry can give ancient wisdom a present vitality without contradicting itself. The fusion is poetical, not prosaic (betamale) or polemical (cucky). The flesh and blood of a young woman as this season’s fruit, ripe only briefly, and the produce of roots that extend deep into the earth for miles and eons. A young man within whom all his progenitors remain alive, shot through with the strength of living tradition, the wisdom of his forbears distilled to instinct.

I’m all for the corrective, brother. Extremely corrupt times require extreme counterbalances.
But your flaw is the inability to modulate. Leaders inspire the complacent to overturn the status quo, but they don’t leave the mob to their unchecked passions, even if they are righteously earned. That’s how “revolutions eat their own.” They unleash monsters that destroy everything, including the entire purpose they were unleashed in the first place.
Be a leader. Don’t bemoan how injustices aren’t being corrected fast enough, how our commitment isn’t pure enough, how the leaders who do put themselves out there aren’t strong enough. We are crooked timber. Take the long view, because the mob won’t (and can’t). You have to be five steps ahead of not just the jew but of your own people, especially if they are a fiercely willful people like ours. What does it profit a race if it gains the whole world but loses its people?
Don’t speak, act in such a way that demonstrates to those who would follow you the narrow path between the Scylla and Charybdis of capitulation and suicide bombing. Leaders ask for sacrifice, but never pointless sacrifice, never catharsis in lieu of winning. Losers only want to emote, they don’t mind losing with dignity and fine with moral victories, so long as they can scream romantically at the sky. Winners modulate their emotions and plot for real gains.

Every TV show had an episode where the white characters were confronted with their “bigotry” by some poor upstanding negro family that remained poor because of our endemic racism.
