Why the "Northwest Republic" Idea belongs to the 1980s

Greg Johnson, who was fired as editor of The Occidental Quarterly last year for giving publicity to Harold Covington, now has his own blog where he has recently resumed giving publicity to Harold Covington. (We thought Greg might have learned something but apparently not.)

Johnson's blog has a discussion going on right now about the "Northwest Imperative" that is advocated in Covington's fantasy novels. A big part of Covington's argument for the Pacific Northwest as a breakaway all-White republic is the fact that it has been, relatively speaking, a hotbed of White racial separatism. The inland Pacific Northwest has had somewhat more than its share of famous White Separatists, most prominently Robert Mathews, whose group of several dozen revolutionaries known as "The Order" made news for a couple of years in the 1980s before being crushed.

I just relistened to Robert Mathews' speech that he gave at a National Alliance function in 1983. Mathews explained that the Pacific Northwest had many distressed farmers that were receptive to radical ideas because of the farm-mortgage crisis that was going on at the time. If you do a Google News search on farm mortgage foreclosure you find a peak of stories containing those terms in the early 1980s. The only other comparable peak is around 1930, and it's twice as high.

So this Northwest Republic idea is in a way a kind of nostalgia for an effect of the early 80s farm crisis, combined with the wish that it had been a lot more significant than it was. There has been an increase in stories about farm foreclosures in the past few years but not on the magnitude of the early 80s. Farmers are actually doing pretty well these days even while the economy in general is very sick. I think if Bob Mathews were alive today and trying to recruit a revolutionary cadre he would be more likely to find them among the unemployed and grossly underemployed men of the deindustrialized regions of the country, than in the Pacific Northwest.

I sent this to Tom Metzger, who was among the original advocates of a Northwest homeland. His response appears below.

Tom Metzger Comments:

Bob Mathews gravitated toward the plight of White family farmers early on, back in the eighties, and this happened to dovetail with right wing conservative lip service of that era. After Mathews was murdered, Lewis Beam continued the fight, and began promoting the 'leaderless resistance' strategy.

Boots on the ground White leaders then were Bob Miles, Richard Butler, Tom Metzger and a few others. They fought for the best interests of ALL White working class folks... including the farmers. Unfortunately, they had little chance of success, primarily because the Racial right fought them tooth & nail! Most Racial right leaders are not populist, socialist or working class oriented people. They cling to failed Republican-type upper middle class fantasies, and they willfully throw White working class folks under the bus, rather than ally with us 'Racists'. There is a history of this going back to at least the early thirties.

AWOL Racial right leaders -- made worse by the northern invasion of non-Whites and vast numbers of California social Marxists, plus their rich degenerate camp followers -- turned the Northwest Republic idea into nothing more than the fading hope of dreamers, or worse. That's when the three of us agreed: "It's too late for the Northwest idea!" -- working class young White people should hunker down in those areas they know best, maintaining their social and economic networks in place.

The entire subject was moot until Harold Covington, on the run, fled northwest to avoid paying a slander case judgment to Will Williams. 'Rabbi' Covington, close enough to beleaguered remnants of Aryan Nations (and anyone else he could suck in), then started his current good ship lolly pop scam. Had he not been on the lam, and apparently safe from the judgment, his Northwest scheme would never have occurred to him. He would have remained back east where the pickings were easier. Now, rather than living in some backwoods log cabin among the folks who fly his Northwest Scam flag high, Covington is comfortably ensconced in urban headquarters, near non-whites who reside around there wall to wall.

If Harold Covington could force march to the city limits from his hideout, without sustaining a heart attack, I would be greatly surprised.

It has been brought to my attention that a blog run by Covington had posts on it from a Ron or Ron D., Ron from Richmond and one even stated Ron Doggett, attacking Will Williams.

I want to make it clear I'm NOT the author of those posts (most likely Covington is), I consider Will Williams to be a long time friend and one of the best White patriot's I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. His dedication to the cause has been proven time and time again.

If any "movement" Northwest or otherwise has Covington as its main spokesperson it is doomed regardless of any other issues.

TommyJ · April 14th, 2011

The only 'movement' I know of that is worth 2 cents is one that is happening naturally that covers an area from the western shores of the Great Lakes - Wisconsin/Upper Michigan - and extends westward thru such locations as Kalispell, Montana.

Although there is a small mix of undesirables such as Somalis, Hmong, and common street niggers and spics, they are greatly outnumbered by Whites.

Many White Racialists are relocating to these upper States, a sort of gathering of forces. I hope this trend continues and we all start communicating toward the betterment of our 'situation'.

I was recently contacted by someone who informed me that Tubby was posting comments on his blog from a "Fred S."

That is not me. I have never posted anything on Harold Covington's blog, or even read it.

What are the main differences between Pacific Northwest, Kalispell, Montana and PLE?

One of the differences is that a PLE doesn't go out of its way to set off alarm bells of secessionism and give the Feds an excuse to crush them the way Covington's "Northwest Republic" idea does. And obviously a PLE doesn't have to be in the Northwest. Kalispell isn't really in Covington's make-believe republic either, but he stretched the border to include April Gaede because unlike Ron Doggett and Fred Streed she really will talk to him.

Both of you can see the screen shots for yourselves here:

Covington's broadcasts are getting pretty bad - think we are done.

He's got that whining, demoralizing tone in which he talks down to his listeners as if they are the biggest losers on the planet.

The average person has no clue how destructive that kind of talk is to individual achievement, let alone group achievement. Whiners and other malcontents should be run out.

Some people have no clue as to the awesome opportunity we have before us and the great strides we made. Go onto the comments of news stories on mainstream sites and see for yourself. WN-thinking people are EVERYWHERE. This jew PC bullshit is on the way out.

Ron, does attacking other WNs , like ex girlsfriends who wouldnt marry him, qualify for dedication to the cause?

Covington is but one person advocating NW migration and you well know that. Dont throw the baby out with the bathwater.

Erich Bailey · April 27th, 2011

I think people are looking for some magic leader who is going to fix things
and create some kind of organization to fix our problems.
The point here is that the northwestern part of our nation is overwhelmingly white. Do we need a organization or leader to tell us to move to a place where we are not living in a non-stop chimpout? If things were to get really bad in this country we will all be better off living closer to each other instead of scattered all over the place.

Ha. Will's persuasive exposes of you, combined with your feeble responses and non-responses over the years, have amply justified his "attacks".

Think. . . "horse trailer".

You wouldn't dare even mention his name here, if he was allowed to post a reply.
