Under sommaren publicerar vi sommarrepriser av avsnitt vi tycker är extra lyssningsvärda! Varje fredag kommer en ny repris – hela sommaren. Först ut är vår serie om 100 år av svensk nazism. Avsnittsbeskrivningen: Vi har nu kommit fram till 2000-talet. Ett mord i Salem som får stora delar av den svenska nazistmiljön att enas och under det nya millenniets första decennium genomförs flera samlande demonstrationer innan konflikter och interna strider återigen sätter stopp för sammanhållningen.  Det fjärde och avslutande avsnittet i serien om 100 år av svensk nazism handlar om vår samtida nazistiska historia — där det parallellt med partisatsningar går att se hur lösare nätverk och lokala aktivistgrupper slår igenom. Det är en trendkänslig, internationellt uppkopplad och snabbt skiftande miljö som jämte nazismen ger plats för identitärer, nyfascister, fria nationalister, realister, alt-right-aktivister, medborgarjournalister och aktivklubbar. Och återigen är våldet den nazistiska idévärldens följeslagare — med bombattentat, mord och skoldåd.  Hur kan vi förstå det myller av organisationsformer vi ser växa fram under 2000-talet? Hur utnyttjar extremhögern den digitala revolutionen? Och hur påverkar miljöns nu nästan 100 åriga historia den samtida nazismen? Vi är framme vid smörgåsbordsnazismen och de så kallade ensamagerande terroristernas epok. Gäster i studion är Daniel Poohl, vd på Expo och Anders Dalsbro, reporter på Expo.

pWotD Episode 2996: Fourteen Words Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 314,220 views on Tuesday, 15 July 2025 our article of the day is Fourteen Words."The Fourteen Words" (also abbreviated 14 or 1488) is a reference to two slogans originated by the American domestic terrorist David Eden Lane, one of nine founding members of the defunct white supremacist terrorist organization The Order, and are accompanied by Lane's "88 Precepts". The slogans have served as a rallying cry for militant white nationalists internationally.The primary slogan in the Fourteen Words is,We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children, Followed by the secondary slogan,because the beauty of the White Aryan woman must not perish from the Earth.The two slogans were coined prior to Lane being sentenced to 190 years in federal prison for planning and abetting the assassination of the Jewish talk show host Alan Berg, who was murdered by another member of the group in June 1984. They were popularized heavily after Lane's imprisonment. The slogans were publicized through print company 14 Word Press, founded in St. Maries, Idaho, in 1995 by Lane's wife, Katja, to disseminate her husband's writings, along with Ron McVan who later moved his operation to Butte, Montana, after a falling-out with Katja.Lane used the 14-88 numerical coding extensively throughout his spiritual, political, religious, esoteric, and philosophical tracts and notably in his "88 Precepts" manifesto. According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, inspiration for the Fourteen Words "are derived from a passage in Adolf Hitler's autobiographical book Mein Kampf". The Fourteen Words have been prominently used by neo-Nazis, white power skinheads and certain white nationalists and the alt-right. "88" is used by some as a shorthand for "Heil Hitler", 'H' being the 8th letter of the alphabet, though Lane viewed Nazism along with America as being part of the "Zionist conspiracy".Lane's ideology was anti-American, white separatist, and insurrectionist; he considered loyalty to the United States to be "racial treason" and upheld the acronym "Our Race Is Our Nation" ("ORION"), viewing the United States as committing genocide against white people and as having been founded as a New World Order to finalize a global Zionist government.Being bitterly opposed to the continued existence of the United States as a political entity, and labeling it the "murderer of the White race", Lane further advocated domestic terrorism as a tool to carve out a "white homeland" in the Northern Mountain States. To that end, Lane issued a declaration called "Moral Authority", published through now-defunct 14 Word Press and shared through the publications of Aryan Nations, World Church of the Creator, and other white separatist groups, in which he referred to the United States as a "Red, White and Blue traveling mass murder machine", while asserting that "true moral authority belongs to those who resist genocide".This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 03:07 UTC on Wednesday, 16 July 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Fourteen Words on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Kendra.

Nazism sought to bypass legal norms where it couldn't just sweep them aside. The German Weimar constitution took time to dismantle and new institutions, practices and laws needed to be created in order to subvert it. A similar process is underway in America at the moment and Trump's recent allocation of over $200 billion to ICE is a huge step towards cementing a police state that is answerable directly to him.

Although Montrealer Philip Khazzam has never set foot inside his family's nearly-century old mansion in the Iraqi capitol of Baghdad, he has heard many stories about the lush gardens, fountains, bedrooms to sleep 12, and pool. The residence, built in 1935, was home to his grandparents' and also to his great-uncle's families-brothers Ezra and Khedouri Lawee–wealthy Jewish automobile dealers who were pillars of Iraq's business community. They lived there for over a decade, until growing support for Nazism in Iraq during the Second World War and widespread resentment of Israel in the years afterword made life dangerous for the historic Jewish community. Some 130-thousand Iraqi Jews were forced to give up their citizenship and leave behind all their property, in exchange for a permit to flee the country in 1951-52. The ancestral home, still in the family's name, was eventually rented out to the French government as an embassy, but 35 years ago, in 1968, a coup eventually brought dictator Saddam Hussein to power. His regime froze the family's ownership and ordered France to pay the rent directly to Iraq instead. Philip Khazzam has spent years pursuing Iraq for the legal rights to his family's stolen house. He is also suing the French government for $30 million in back rent. On today's episode of North Star, The CJN's flagship news podcast, host Ellin Bessner catches up with Phillip Khazzam to learn why he is continuing this multi-generational fight for his family's lost patrimony.

Professor Sander van der Linden's fascination with misinformation traces back to his own family's scars under Nazism, a regime that perfected propaganda so insidious it seeped invisibly into everyday life. In his award-winning book Foolproof, van der Linden argues that misinformation is a psychological virus, spreading through minds the way a biological virus hijacks cells. From Third Reich leaflets to modern algorithms, the tools have evolved, but the core infection remains the same: exploiting our mental shortcuts and illusions of truth. As the Capitol riots show, unchecked lies can kill. Van der Linden's mission is urgent: to build psychological vaccines that inoculate society from misinformation before deepfakes, AI, and data-hungry platforms unleash the next generation of invisible propaganda and push us past the point of no return. Guest bio: Professor Sander van der Linden is a Cambridge social psychologist and award-winning author of Foolproof. He pioneered the concept of “psychological vaccines” against misinformation, advises governments and tech companies worldwide, and his research has shaped global strategies to combat fake news, conspiracy theories, and the growing threat of deepfakes. Van der Linden is the Professor of Social Psychology in Society in the Department of Psychology at the University of Cambridge and Director of the Cambridge Social Decision-Making Lab. SUPPORT THE ZACH SHOW BY SUBSCRIBING TO THE ZACH SHOW 2.0 (BONUS EPISODES & EXCLUSIVE CONTENT): https://auxoro.supercast.com/ DR.

Under sommaren publicerar vi sommarrepriser av avsnitt vi tycker är extra lyssningsvärda! Varje fredag kommer en ny repris – hela sommaren. Först ut är vår serie om 100 år av svensk nazism. Avsnittsbeskrivningen: I förra avsnittet fick vi höra historien om de första svenska nazistpionjärerna. Men den nazistiska historien slutar som bekant inte vid krigsslutet 1945. Trots en omvärld som förfasas över Hitlerregimens mördarmaskineri och med de ledande nazisterna inför rätta så fortsätter den svenska rörelsen sin verksamhet. Det sker dock allt som oftast i det dolda. Men planer smids för en väg framåt. Vi har nu kommit fram till del två: efterkrigsnazisterna (1945—1979). Runt om i Europa försöker vid den här tiden de nazister och fascister som vägrar ge upp sin kamp istället att omorganisera. Ska rasfrågan fortsätta vara rörelsens ledstjärna eller finns det andra vägar att gå? Här kommer en svensk att få en för utvecklingen viktig internationell roll. Många av övervintrarna tonar ned sin nazism, men i mitten av 1950-talet presenterar sig ett parti som inte döljer sin ideologiska hemvist. Hur ändrade nazistmiljön karaktär efter kriget? Vilka strategier hade de för att återlansera sina idéer? Hur gick det till när Sverige och Malmö blev den europeiska extremhögerns viktigaste mötesplats? Och vilken betydelse har den här generationen av nazister kommit att få för nästa generation av aktivister?

Under sommaren publicerar vi sommarrepriser av avsnitt vi tycker är extra lyssningsvärda! Varje fredag kommer en ny repris – hela sommaren. Först ut är vår serie om 100 år av svensk nazism. Avsnittsbeskrivningen: I år är det 100 år sedan det första svenska nazistpartiet bildades. Trots vetskapen om nazismens fruktansvärda konsekvenser har nya anhängare fortsatt att attraheras av dess rasism och antidemokratiska idéer. 100 år av obruten nazistisk organisering. Det är en brokig historia fylld av våld, terror och gatuaktivism. Men även valsatsningar och entreprenörskap. Mängder av partier och organisationer har bildats och försvunnit. Det har varit otaliga interna strider och fraktionsbildningar, men även återkommande enhetsförsök. Expo kommer i fyra avsnitt att berätta om den här heterogena rörelsens utveckling och olika faser från de första partibildningarna till dagens slagsmålsklubbar.   I det här första avsnittet ska vi titta närmare på den svenska nazismens pionjärer och åren fram till krigsslutet 1945. En period där svensk nazism ser dagens ljus och agerar i skuggan av Hitler. Och ett krigsslut som ändrar allt.  Vilka var de centrala aktörerna? Hur togs de emot av sin samtid?

Bonhoeffer's Black Jesus, with Reggie Williams

For Christians, morality is often set by our interpretation of Jesus. In this episode, Reggie Williams reflects on the moral urgency of resistance in the face of rising nationalisms and systemic racial injustice that persists. Reggie Williams is associate professor of black theology at Saint Louis University, and author of Bonhoeffer's Black Jesus. Exploring the transformative and fraught legacy of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, he draws from Bonhoeffer's encounter with black Christian faith in Harlem. He traces both the revolutionary promise and the colonial limits of Bonhoeffer's thought—ultimately offering a compelling call to face the challenge of colonialism embedded in Christian theological frameworks, and unmask and dismantle the assumptions of white Western dominance within theology. Episode Highlights “Even the most sincere and most brilliant, and even pious Christian, if we're not paying attention to the way in which we are formed, repeats the problems that he's trying to address in society.” “Our interpretation of Jesus shapes our morality as Christians.” “Hitler and Dietrich both understood their crisis as christological—just with radically different ends.” “Christ is actually present in the world in space and time—but for Bonhoeffer, that was the West. That's a problem.” “The arbiter of culture owes it to the rest of the world not to be cruel. But what if the whole project needs to be undone?” “Access for black people has always meant white loss in the white imagination. That's the virus in the body politic.” Helpful Links and Resources Bonhoeffer's Black Jesus by Reggie Williams Ethics by Dietrich Bonhoeffer The Cost of Discipleship by Dietrich Bonhoeffer Just Peacemaking by Glen Stassen About Reggie L. Williams Reggie L. Williams is associate professor of black theology at Saint Louis University. A scholar of Christian social ethics, he focuses on race, religion, and justice, with a particular interest in Dietrich Bonhoeffer's theological development during his time in Harlem. Williams is the author of Bonhoeffer's Black Jesus and a leading voice on the intersections of colonialism, theology, and ethics. Show Notes Bonhoeffer's Black Jesus reframes theological ethics through the lens of Harlem's Black Church experience Reggie Williams explores how racialized interpretations of Jesus shape Christian morality Glen Stassen's just peacemaking framework helped form Williams's commitment to justice-oriented ethics Bonhoeffer's exposure to black theology in Harlem was transformative—but its disruption didn't last “The church must say something about those targeted by harmful political structures.” Bonhoeffer saw racism as a theological issue after Harlem, but still defaulted to Western Christology “Christ is located in the real world—but for Bonhoeffer, that meant colonial Europe and America” Williams critiques Bonhoeffer's failure to see Christ outside the imperial West “Behold the man”—Bonhoeffer's formulation still echoes a European epistemology of the human The human as we know it is a European philosophical construct rooted in colonial domination Bonhoeffer's Ethics critiques Nazism but still centres the West as the space of Christ's incarnation “The unified West was his answer to fascism—but it still excluded the harmed and colonized.” Even as a resister, Bonhoeffer operated within metaphysical frames of white supremacy “A reformed imperial Christianity is still imperial—we need a theological break, not a revision.” Bonhoeffer's Cost of Discipleship reflected troubling views on slavery—he changed over time “From 1937 to 1939 he moves from withdrawal to coup attempt—his ethics evolved.” Reggie Williams argues the theological academy still operates under Bonhoeffer's colonial presumptions “White Christian nationalism is a sacred project—whiteness floats above history as God's proxy” Racial hierarchy was created to justify economic domination, not the other way around “Black access is always imagined as white loss in the American imagination” The DEI backlash reflects a long pattern of retrenchment following black progress “How we treat bodies is how we treat the planet—domination replaces communion” Bonhoeffer's flaws do not erase his significance—they remind us of the need for grace and growth “He's frozen in time at thirty-nine—we don't know what he would've come to see had he lived.” Mark Labberton calls the current moment a five-alarm fire requiring voices like Williams's “We are at the precipice of the future all over again—the old crisis is still with us.” The church's complicity in empire must be confronted to recover the radical gospel of Jesus The moral imagination of the church must be unshackled from whiteness, ownership, and dominance Production Credits Conversing is produced and distributed in partnership with Comment magazine and Fuller Seminary.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 167 As recently introduced on the New Discourses Podcast, the Nazis performed an experiment of sorts (https://newdiscourses.com/2025/03/woke-nationalism-and-the-nazi-experiment/) between the mid 1920s and 1945, when that experiment met its catastrophic end. Framing what they did as an experiment is a valuable perspective. They found themselves in a certain set of unpleasant societal conditions, and they turned to Nazism to solve their problems. It failed. Miserably and disastrously. That experiment is therefore a warning to the world: if you find yourselves in conditions that seem similar, do not go the way of the Nazis. In this New Discourses podcast series, host James Lindsay walks the listener through portions of Hitler's Mein Kampf to explain clearly what the basis for the Nazi Experiment was, so that we might understand it. In this first episode, he reads from Chapter 1 of Volume 2 of that wretched book to explain the Nazi racial worldview (weltanshauung), which built the state we know and rightly hate on deliberate, knowing "racialism" (racism). Join him to understand and to see how close history is to rhyming again. New book!

He is the author or co-author of several books, with the latest one being The Invention of Prehistory: Empire, Violence, and Our Obsession with Human Origins. In this episode, we focus on The Invention of Prehistory. We start by talking about how people got interested in prehistory, what “invention” means in this case, what our understanding of the past is shaped by, and the example of the Neanderthals. We discuss European colonization, and concepts like “savage” and “civilization”; indigenous peoples and the first humans; “human nature” and political debates between socialists and capitalists; and eugenics and Nazism. We talk about the impact of popular books, like Yuval Harari's Sapiens, and claims about how we should live our present lives.

Few words carry such heavy connotations and are at the same time so prone to misunderstanding, as the word antisemitism. What do we talk about when we talk about antisemitism? British historian and author Mark Mazower discusses how the meaning of antisemitism has changed over time. In his latest book On Antisemitism: A Word in History, Mark Mazower traces the long history of antisemitism from its ancient origins to its many transformations in the modern world. The term was coined in the nineteenth century by Europeans who saw assimilating Jews as a threat to their ethnic-nationalist ideals. They combined age-old prejudices with racist pseudoscience, laying the groundwork for the horrors of Nazism and the Holocaust.Nowadays, the Israel-Palestine conflict has re-ignited debates in both Israel, European countries and the United States. The fight against extremists became intertwined with the question: when is criticism of Israel antisemitic? In De Balie, we dissect a loaded term.Mark Mazower (1958) is a professor of history at Columbia University in New York, specialised in modern Greece, 20th century Europe and international history. He is the author of award-winning best-sellers such as Dark Continent: Europe's 20th Century (1998), The Balkans (2000), and Hitler's Empire: Nazi Rule in Occupied Europe (2008). He also writes regularly for the Financial Times, The New York Times, and the New York Review of Books, among others.Nadia Bouras (1981) is associate professor and researcher at the Institute of History at Leiden University. She is also affiliated with the Netherlands Institute in Morocco (NIMAR), the center of expertise in Morocco studies at Leiden University. Bouras regularly appears as an expert in the media on current affairs in the field of integration and migration. Her latest publication, Een Klas Apart (2020), studied the history of the Arab School in Amsterdam-Zuid.Emile Schrijver (1962) is General Director of the Jewish Cultural Quarter in Amsterdam, which includes among others the Jewish Museum, the Portuguese Synagogue, the Holocaust memorial site Hollandsche Schouwburg and the National Holocaust Museum. Schrijver is also professor by special appointment of Jewish Book History at the University of Amsterdam's (UvA) Faculty of Humanities. In January 2025, he and Ruth Peeters published the book Ooggetuigen van het antisemitisme, a collection of eyewitness accounts of antisemitism, from the first centuries to the present.Programme editor: Larissa BiemondModerator: Yoeri Albrecht---Want to know more about Forum on European Culture?

When World War II ended, about one million people whom the Soviet Union claimed as its citizens were outside the borders of the USSR, mostly in the Western-occupied zones of Germany and Austria. These “displaced persons,” or DPs—Russians, prewar Soviet citizens, and people from West Ukraine and the Baltic states forcibly incorporated into the Soviet Union in 1939—refused to repatriate to the Soviet Union despite its demands. Thus began one of the first big conflicts of the Cold War. In Lost Souls, Sheila Fitzpatrick draws on new archival research, including Soviet interviews with hundreds of DPs, to offer a vivid account of this crisis, from the competitive maneuverings of politicians and diplomats to the everyday lives of DPs.American enthusiasm for funding the refugee organizations taking care of DPs quickly waned after the war. It was only after DPs were redefined—from “victims of war and Nazism” to “victims of Communism”—in 1947 that a solution was found: the United States would pay for the mass resettlement of DPs in America, Australia, and other countries outside Europe. The Soviet Union protested this “theft” of its citizens. But it was a coup for the United States. The choice of DPs to live a free life in the West, and the West's welcome of them, became an important theme in America's Cold War propaganda battle with the Soviet Union. A compelling story of the early Cold War, Lost Souls: Soviet Displaced Persons and the Birth of the Cold War (Princeton UP, 2024)is also a rare chronicle of a refugee crisis that was solved.

It's 14 years old but I think it holds up and I am proud of it   Tim Wise Link Tree Tim Wise, whom scholar and philosopher Cornel West calls, “A vanilla brother in the tradition of (abolitionist) John Brown,” is among the nation's most prominent antiracist essayists and educators. He has spent the past 25 years speaking to audiences in all 50 states, on over 1000 college and high school campuses, at hundreds of professional and academic conferences, and to community groups across the nation. He has also lectured internationally in Canada and Bermuda, and has trained corporate, government, law enforcement and medical industry professionals on methods for dismantling racism in their institutions. Wise's antiracism work traces back to his days as a college activist in the 1980s, fighting for divestment from (and economic sanctions against) apartheid South Africa. After graduation, he threw himself into social justice efforts full-time, as a Youth Coordinator and Associate Director of the Louisiana Coalition Against Racism and Nazism: the largest of the many groups organized in the early 1990s to defeat the political candidacies of white supremacist and former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke. From there, he became a community organizer in New Orleans' public housing, and a policy analyst for a children's advocacy group focused on combatting poverty and economic inequity. He has served as an adjunct professor at the Smith College School of Social Work, in Northampton, MA., and from 1999-2003 was an advisor to the Fisk University Race Relations Institute in Nashville, TN.

The Best of the Bible Answer Man Broadcast

On today's Bible Answer Man broadcast (05/26/25), Hank welcomes you to a special Memorial Day edition of the broadcast. In the midst of battling the evil of Nazism, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill said, “Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few.” Churchill's words ring true today as we celebrate Memorial Day in the United States. A day to honor those who, in the words of Abraham Lincoln, “gave the last full measure of devotion” in their sacrifice for freedom. We here at the Christian Research Institute offer our deepest respect, honor, and thankfulness to those who have sacrificed all to protect and defend the freedoms we enjoy in this country. But we are also committed to preserving freedoms that are definitively being compromised in the present generation. As history demonstrates, we must ever remain vigilant. Which leads to a quintessential question: “Under what conditions is war justified?”

Every Memorial Day, the media praises the heroism of slain U.S. service members, especially those who served in World War II. But these reports are deeply hypocritical. Today, Josh explains how the media fuels the kinds anti-democratic movements that U.S. troops fought against. In fact, on a daily basis big news agencies legitimize a movement with roots in Nazism. You'll hear powerful words from FDR in the lead-up to World War II, arguing that the United States must help fellow democracies under attack. He called out infiltrators at home who support enemies of democracy, and people who cloak these agendas under alleged anti-war sentiments. It has great resonance now for Ukraine, Israel, and the radicalization fueling violence worldwide -- including the horrific slaughter of a couple in Washington. It also speaks to the dangers of Trump extolling dictators and expressing authoritarian instincts. Plus, Josh shares another president's warning on the “military-industrial complex.” And beautiful Memorial Day music, including from a sergeant standing alone in a national cemetery. To all fallen U.S. service members: thank you.

Today we continue our series, sponsored by the University of Dallas: "A Knight for Truth," examining the life and thought of Dietrich von Hildebrand. In this episode, Lily examines the period following Hildebrand's conversion, during which he spent 7 years immersing himself in the Saints and Doctors of the Church, developing a profound understanding and appreciation for Catholic teaching. She discusses his book Liturgy and Personality, and how he believed that by participating in liturgical life, one is transformed and becomes a more complete person. She also discusses Hildebrand's unwavering commitment to truth, leading him to stand firm against ideologies like Nazism and Communism, even when it meant going against the majority. The University of Dallas is among an exclusive list of Catholic universities recommended by the Cardinal Newman Society. Founded in 1956, the University of Dallas is dedicated to the pursuit of wisdom, truth, and virtue. It has two campuses, one located in the bustling Dallas/Fort Worth region and another southeast of Rome.

What if I told you one of the most influential philosophers of the 20th century wasn't just a Nazi sympathizer, but that fascism was fundamental to his entire philosophical project? In this profound conversation with Colin Bodayle, doctoral student in philosophy at Villanova University, we peel back the sanitized layers of Martin Heidegger's legacy to reveal the uncomfortable truth behind his continued influence.The mystification around Heidegger's Nazism represents one of academia's most persistent blind spots. While other Nazi intellectuals like Carl Schmitt are acknowledged for what they were, Heidegger enjoys special treatment. Colin reveals how Heidegger's manuscripts were likely edited to remove explicitly fascist content, creating a historical deception that continues to this day.Most importantly, we explore how Heidegger's core philosophical concepts—authenticity, Dasein, and his critique of technology—directly support his fascist worldview. His concept of authenticity isn't about individual self-creation but about embracing one's heritage and historical destiny as part of a "folk." His subjective idealism dissolves the possibility of objective truth in favor of interpretation, creating a philosophical framework perfectly aligned with fascist thought.The conversation takes fascinating detours through German idealism, Nietzsche's reactionary politics, and the strange appropriation of Heideggerian concepts by both the contemporary left and far-right figures like Alexander Dugin. We also discuss how continental philosophy's language games often obscure the political implications embedded in philosophical concepts.Rather than suggesting we abandon these thinkers entirely, this conversation invites critical engagement. As Colin notes, "Heidegger can teach you things about being human—he wasn't wrong about everything." But we must approach his work with our eyes wide open to its political foundations.If you've ever grappled with continental philosophy, critical theory, or the political dimensions of abstract thought, this episode offers a masterclass in intellectual clarity and honest critique.Send us a text Musis by Bitterlake, Used with Permission, all rights to BitterlakeSupport the showCrew:Host: C.
