LNSG Signs The Newpath Declaration - April 20, 2009
On April 20, 2009, the leaders of four underground new right, deep ecology and third front think tanks sat down together. Our mission: find what we have in common.
We came up with a series of goals that we think will clarify the mission of our groups and provide a foundation for a new society.
Our goal is to replace the modern society that recklessly consumes its environment, turns its people into drones, and converts culture into marketing. We believe the long-term effects of modern society are misery and descent into third-world levels of disorganization for the industrialized west.
At the end of our meeting, we came up with twenty points we consider imperative for any future movement:
- We cannot trust bureaucracy or "invisible hand" systems like capitalism or anarchy to lead us. We need strong leaders who can respond to problems and do what is right in the long term, even if that is unpopular in the short term (20 years or fewer).
- For these leaders to remain uncorrupt, they need a clear goal and values system which they are charged to act upon. We call this "culture."
- For our people to know what behaviors will make others acclaim them, they must also have this clear goal and values system called "culture."
- Unlike tangible goals, cultural goals are intangible and not fixed to any time. They are ongoing tasks of improvement, by an incremental process the Japanese call "kaizen."
- With culture, we introduce reverence for nature and other people into our people.
- However, we must make it clear that society can only accept those who are responsible and who act toward this goal with these values; too many others, as Jonathan Haidt observes, fragment our social consensus and lead us to disorder.
- We know from history that states without this consensus destroy themselves. We need consensus by values, customs, language, culture and heritage.
- As societies reward those who fulfill culture and shun those who do not, we are shaped genetically by past cultures, and are genetically shaping ourselves by the culture now. Dumb culture reduces the abilities of people; smart culture makes better people.
- Unless we create this social consensus, we will be dependent on increasingly powerful (through technology) means of control that will squash our liberties and compel us to act toward dumb, lowest common denominator culture.
- We believe that societies thrive when they have a goal and values, and reward the best according to those values, and exile the worst.
- The only way to preserve and nurture our environment is through reverence of it instilled into each person. Culture can do this if conservation is part of its beliefs.
- We encourage each nation to adopt the prime directive (of Star Trek fame): "No interference with the social development of other cultures."
- We believe that technology worship and science worship do not replace a guiding philosophy like culture, and make us arrogant, literal-minded and short-sighted.
- Under no circumstances should a means, such as economics or popular notions, replace our goals and values, which are not tangible but shape all things we do.
- We believe that national culture -- a unity of language, religion and philosophy, customs, values and heritage -- is a right of each nation, and that we should undo the nation state -- unification by political or economic convenience -- with national cultures.
- We do not believe in freedom, liberty or equality as goals; these are means to an end, which is a society that rewards its best and treats everyone fairly.
- Without a cultural consensus that guarantees reward for good behavior, people will behave as is convenient to them, which promotes disorganization and selfishness.
- We believe that the values above can be translated into every culture, religion, philosophy and political outlook if people look deeply enough, and see each belief system as a method toward the goal of living reverently.
- We affirm the following portion of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights:
"Article 15.
- Everyone has the right to a nationality.
- No one shall be arbitrarily deprived of his nationality nor denied the right to change his nationality."
And suggest section (3):
- Deprivation of nationality includes slow genocide by introduction of foreign populations, or criminalization and ostracization of those who speak out for a unified culture, values, customs, and heritage.
- We affirm the reasons for the above are to achieve the goals set forth in the Deep Ecology Mission Statement:
"We believe that current problems are largely rooted in the following circumstances:
- The loss of traditional knowledge, values, and ethics of behavior that celebrate the intrinsic value and sacredness of the natural world and that give the preservation of Nature prime importance. Correspondingly, the assumption of human superiority to other life forms, as if we were granted royalty status over Nature; the idea that Nature is mainly here to serve human will and purpose.
- The prevailing economic and development paradigms of the modern world, which place primary importance on the values of the market, not on Nature. The conversion of nature to commodity form, the emphasis upon economic growth as a panacea, the industrialization of all activity, from forestry to farming to fishing, even to education and culture; the drive to economic globalization, cultural homogenization, commodity accumulation, urbanization, and human alienation. All of these are fundamentally incompatible with ecological or biological sustainability on a finite Earth.
- Technology worship and an unlimited faith in the virtues of science; the modern paradigm that technological development is inevitable, invariably good, and to be equated with progress and human destiny. From this, we are left dangerously uncritical, blind to profound problems that technology and science have wrought, and in a state of passivity that confounds democracy.
- Overpopulation, in both the overdeveloped and the underdeveloped worlds, placing unsustainable burdens upon biodiversity and the human condition."
We, the members of the Newpath Confederation, swear these truths to be self-evident and pledge our lives to uphold them.
About the LNSG
The LNSG recognizes that modern, liberal democratic industrial society is the cause of its own enduring and pervasive problems. We believe in a resurrection of traditional values, including naturalism and nationalism, in order to end domination by material motivation and the "empowerment" of the individual. Our party operates at this time as a think tank for environmentalist and nationalist ideals, and can be found online at www.nazi.org.
About Nationalism
Nationalism is the belief that for diversity to exist, each ethnic-cultural grouping of human beings must isolate itself to prevent assimilation by the mass of cultureless proletariat produced by industrial society. It encourages a return to pre-industrial revolution traditional values, including a demotion of the individual to status as a method of achieving goals, and not a goal in itself.
