Part of the great struggle which has been waged against us is tearing down our monuments to the past. If we are no longer tethered to tradition, then we will accept anything as our heritage. Which is why part of the revolutionary struggle is to make us hate great men and great deeds. If we hate them, we will not emulate their greatness and become the bug-people who scurry about witlessly gnawing and writhing in bitter plots and thoughts.
A stratagem of this struggle is to tear down the tower of what is called colonialism. Colonialism is an especially important target for the revolution, because like Westernism or Eurasianism, it is not so much a place in a period of time but a state of mind. Daring bands of adventurers taking to the wild sea, sailing to distant unknown lands, discovering wealth and wonder beyond imagination, fighting against all odds and winning. Missionaries bringing with them the Promethean fire of civilization to dark savages hidden in the forgotten places of the world. Great trade vessels going halfway around the world to bring luxury goods to the common market where before only nobility could afford them, fighting pirates on the high seas. Settling the wild, building towns in the wilderness, enduring miserable hardship because the yearning for freedom was greater than the yoke of old Europe. Colonialism is the counterrevolutionary mindset. It is the supreme confidence in the rightness of one’s own cause, the fortitude to boldly act, and it is winning.
This mindset is the real reason why the communists hate colonialism, and one of the tactics they have devised to subvert is to make us feel guilty over what they call the destruction of indigenous cultures by the colonizers. However, true to form when the communist accusation is examined, the opposite is true. Colonialism strengthened and even created indigenous culture.
Despite what you have been told, all primitive hunter-gatherer tribes are basically the same. The observable differences they have are just a reflection of the environment they inhabit. Bush tribesmen make huts of out mud and hides, the Indians of the plains made teepees out of buffalo skins. The stories they told each other at campfire are all similar enough to be the same. What the tribes ate was what was only locally available, and even then it was only as available, as they were successful at hunting or finding it. Because the tribes were so dependent upon the seasonal conditions of the land to provide them with food, social stratification was essentially non-existent. Without social stratification, culture breaks down into purely interpersonal relationships and can be said to no longer exist.
Culture is primarily expressed through literature. Literature is the medium which transmits the norms, ideas, values, and social sense to the people. Written language was practically unknown in the new world and Africa. Furthermore, the language spoken was wholly inadequate to conceptualize complex ideas and things. For instance, instead of coming up with new words to describe European inventions, the Indians most commonly would repurpose existing words to describe the novelty. For example, the Comanche word for wagon was “rolling box”. As an aside, this lack of linguistic distinction is why science and learning languished in the Middle East after the Arab conquest. In Arabic, “allah” is the root word of half of the vocabulary. It makes concepts very difficult to distinguish and describe in the mind when they all muddle together. In fact, it is not hard to draw the conclusion that the reason why Islam is so simplistic and “inshallah” (deterministic) is because of this phenomenon. Conversely, Latin, it’s romance variants, and the Germanic languages are extremely conducive to learning and advancement because of their clear phonetic distinctions and large vocabularies. So much so that languages such as Spanish and English have actually expanded the native understandings and comprehension of topics and ideas hitherto unknown and perhaps unknowable in their old languages.

A compendium of American Indian legends brought to you by Colonial literacy, archeology, and the internet.
What pre-colonial literature the indigenous people had was transmitted orally from generation to generation and took the form of stories and legends. When examined, the structure, characters, and messages of the stories are similar enough to for the stories to be essentially the same across the tribes, with the differences being environmental. The Tillamook have legends about whales, thunderbirds, and fish. The Navajo have legends about corn and coyotes. What we see when examining the composite of Indian legends is that it is essentially the same legendarium which has been adapted to the local environment which each tribe inhabits. The Colonists brought with them a written language and the scientific method. We have a much firmer grasp of what Indian culture is today by virtue of being able to write the stories down, compile, and compare them, than any Indian did who lived in the America’s before the white man came. If you were an Indian you may be able to remember 10-20 legends off the top of your head—one hundred if you were a wise man. We have all of them written down so we can not only have a record but a much deeper understanding of them, their history, and their meaning than was ever possible before. Furthermore, it cannot be overstated how profound the change from illiteracy to literacy is on the human mind. Where before, stories were fleeting things held only in memory. The ability to read and write disciplines the mind and deepens the knowledge of the subject at hand. It is a truism that the Indians today understand their stories much better by virtue of writing them down and reading than they ever did listening to the wise man at the campfire.
Because of literacy, the descendants of the native Indians have developed their cultures to such an extent that they produce works and scientific advancements which are not only read in their own countries but across the whole world.
Since we do not read much these days, food has become a surrogate for culture in the way literature once was. The effete liberal praises the cuisine of street tacos and authentic Ethiopian food as an indispensable benefit of multiculturalism. But what the smug self-satisfaction has not calculated is that there was no cuisine before western cooking implements. In fact, all “authentic” native food that we know today is the result of western style kitchen appliances that were brought to the new world and western cooking techniques that were taught to the natives by the colonists. Before these inventions the natives either roasted meat and whatever grubs, roots, or plants on which they could forage over an open fire or pit. The advanced tribes would eat pottage if they had mastered or traded for clay pots. Cutting the food uniformly, temperature control, the availability of the right ingredients, recipes, and refrigeration are European gifts to the natives. So that things like sauces, baking, dicing, and even cooking which go into something like a street taco are products of authentic colonialism.
In fact, the idea of having a cook, someone whose job it is to prepare food, is only possible through the division of labour, which is difficult and was for the most part non-existent in pre-colonial hunter-gatherer societies. In fact, social stratification, which is a foundation prerequisite for culture, can only be achieved once a society has advanced beyond the hunter-gatherer stage into agriculture. This is because on a basic level culture is how different social elements must develop norms to form a cohesive society so that food can be traded for services and goods. In a hunter-gatherer society, all labour allocated to finding food and the norms break down into personal relationships. The few primitive items produced are produced on a very small scale. The Colonists brought with them agriculture that creates surpluses of food so that labour is freed up to pursue things like crafts, building, soldiery, priesthood, and all the different jobs which go into creating a society. This division of labour allows for men to focus on pursuits which perpetuates development of culture so that things like festivals, and religious ceremonies codified, complicated, and held in buildings, may reach higher and more profound states than tribal gatherings around a bonfire. Ideas may be developed, put into books, and debated because we have bookmakers. Therefore, we can say that the Indian today, who wishes to live as an Indian, enjoys a much more culturally authentic lifestyle than his hunter-gatherer ancestors. He may call his Indian friends up on his cell phone, who can drive over in a car to his air-conditioned house, and watch a documentary on his local tribe, while eating authentic tribal food prepared on a stove.
Colonialism is something to be proud of. It was an immense period of world history which spanned about 400 years and catalyzed the whole world into advancing more rapidly than the preceding 3,000 years. Colonialism brought with it the technology, the knowledge, and the goodness to develop stoneage hunter-gatherer tribes into modern nations with their own distinct and developed cultures in Latin America and enhanced the cultures of other peoples beyond which was ever possible. The absurdity of feeling guilty over such an enormity of history where everything which could happen did happen is something we should not let the communist bug-people enthrall our minds with. If you went to school, you were likely taught about the Colombian exchange. What gets lost is that this is only the exchange of raw resources between the continents. If we take a holistic approach, the Columbian exchange becomes starkly one-sided.
