Death In June = Fascist Scum In September

Let’s also take the time to highlight the antics of another set of clowns associated with racist heathens: Death In June.

Yes, Death In June are touring again. Circle Ansuz has provided tour dates and a sample letter to send to the venues.

Boyd Rice and Bob Heick

Every time this group pops up on the radar, there’s howls from every corner of the internet exhorting people to leave them alone, either because they don’t want to give them any attention or because of some half-baked copypasta about Death In June’s “artistic message.”

Let’s shoot that down right now: their “artistic message” is boring folk music with random, atonal acoustic guitar strumming. Some hipsters decided that its “dangerous” image was marketable and it’s now turned into a lifestyle brand. That’s it for any arguments about their “artistic merit.”

For those of you who are not aware of this group, Death in June is a musical group headed by Douglas Pearce– who is often its only member. Pearce and Death in June have repeatedly collaborated with former American Front member Boyd Rice– Rice could constitute his own entry, but suffice to say, his schtick is to attempt to be as offensive as possible– and their albums frequently feature overtly Nazi imagery, europhiliac themes and material that cheekily and obliquely references Nazi Germany immediately before the war. Pearce has put Death In June material on compilations supporting fascist and neo-nazi organizations and groups, like Romania’s infamous Iron Guard. Its “grinning skull” logo is clearly derived from the logo of the 3rd div. Waffen SS “Totenkopf,” one of its secondary logos (three vertical bars) is, again, the tactical marking of the 3rd div. Waffen SS “Totenkopf” during the Kursk offensive. On stage, Pearce likes to adorn himself in the specific variant of camouflage used by the Waffen-SS from 1944 to 1945: Flecktarn Erbsenmuster.

Pearce is, predictably, slippery when it comes to allegations of fascist sympathies. When he’s directly confronted with those types of questions, he pulls out ridiculous non-answers like “I prefer to suck, white, uncircumsised cocks.” Pearce also sticks by the assertion he made in a 1985 interview with Sounds magazine:

“Our interest doesn’t come from killing all opposition, as it’s been interpreted, but from identification with or understanding of the leftist elements of the SA which were purged, or murdered by the SS. That day is extremely important in human history… They were planning execution or overthrow of Hitler, so he wouldn’t be around. We’d be living in a completely different world, I should imagine… It’s fascinating that a few people held the destiny of the world and mankind in their hands for those few hours and let it slip, and it could’ve gone either way.”

Of course, this is a blatant lie. Hitler did not order the execution of Ernst Rohm and the Sturmabteilung because of an assassination plot, they were executed because Hitler saw the SA as a thuggish rival for power, and to punish Rohm’s increasingly embarrassing homosexual lifestyle, which underscores the irony of the openly gay Pearce naming his band after an overtly homophobic event. Immediately after the executions were carried out, the the SS fabricated the entire “assassination threat” story as a means to justify the killings.

Either Pearce has not read a history book in the intervening 28 years, or he’s lying to cover his ass. His “artistic” attempts fall flat on their face and he has a long history of associating with and praising the efforts of fascists and neo-nazis. Oppose this tour.

Stephen McNallen and the Asatru Folk Assembly: Racist Heathenry

Another “heathen” society obsessed with racial spiritualism.

We can’t begin to describe how overjoyed we are with Circle Ansuz’s deconstruction of Stephen McNallen and the AFA. Like we said before, every time we’ve probed this disturbing tendency within the pagan scene, we’ve hit brick walls, hostility or half-assed weasel-worded apologies and excuses. The most common excuse we’ve heard was the “in the spirit of Frith, we don’t speak ill of our brothers and sisters in the heathen community.” Excuse me? There’s a loathsome, glad-handing, grinning creature wriggling under the skin of your community and you claim you’re either unwilling or unable to talk about his batshit-crazy racial theories because it will upset people? To niflhel with that garbage.

To that end, Circle Ansuz has produced a stunning amount of information about the cancerous sludge  known as the Asatru Folk Assembly and McNallen himself. So much so, in fact, that we can’t republish it here without the posts becoming ungainly. They’ve completed their expose on McNallen and the AFA, so we’re going to link to each and every one of their articles in this post. The web of deceit spun by McNallen and the hordes of sycophants he’s bred specifically for the purpose of deflecting criticism are wide and vast, so it takes a long series such as this to fully dissect them all.

Stephen McNallen and Racialist Asatru Part 1: Metagenetics and the South Africa Connection
-Details McNallen’s goofy theories on why the souls of white people are incompatible with people of other races, as if they are distinct species. Also goes into McNallen’s time being a fanboy of a South African death squad.

Stephen McNallen and Racialist Asatru Part 2: The Roots of Racialized Religion
-Shows the historical movements that McNallen’s AFA draws its inspiration from, and how the AFA’s philosophy is interchangeable and complimentary with its preceeding, overtly racist forebears.

Stephen McNallen and Racialist Asatru Part 3: In His Own Words
-McNallen opining that all illegals immigrants need to be immediately deported to Mexico, his weasely comments about when AFA members were spotted at the racist National Policy Institute conference in 2011, and why he supports the white supremacist lie of “global white genocide.”

Stephen McNallen Part 4: Stella Natura and What Can be Done
-McNallen’s involvement with the Stella Natura festival and profiles of some of the more vile white supremacist acts, with a special focus on the violent white supremacist Robert N. Taylor, of the act Changes.
