It’s not really a surprise that the works of the great Swiss nationalist of the 20th century were suppressed and are now mostly forgotten in the 21st. But Gonzague de Reynold not only predicted the rise of a globalist supranationalism marketed to the people on the basis of economic interests, he warned of how such schemes would inevitably collapse and wreak devastation on the nations foolish enough to buy into them.
And while the Swiss of the 1940s were wise enough to heed his words, the current state of the USA, the UK, and the two great member-states of the European Union are demonstrating in real-time how his warnings are still entirely applicable today.
We need a national renewal. If it does not happen, if we let the current regime follow its course, we know very well where we will end up. We know it and, unless we are blind, we see it: through statism to socialism; after which, chaos. For as soon as we let things run their course, they escape the control of men, they follow their internal logic, all the way to the point of collapse…
We are no longer in an era when the existence of a nation is justified solely by the fact that it is constituted as a State, that its independence is guaranteed by treaties, sheltered by an international law whose roof is moreover full of holes. We are in an era when a nation must justify its existence by its works, by its intelligence, by its will to live. A nation that would reduce itself to being nothing more than an association of interests, a firm, would lose its right to existence and would sacrifice its own independence through a sort of collective suicide.
There lies the peril that interest groups and economic parties bring upon a country. The day when they realized that their interests lay in the suppression of a border, they would not hesitate to propose it.
We cannot learn anything useful from the corrupt mainstream intellectuals of today because, like the training-corrupted LLMs who parrot their falsehoods, their minds are malformed by a series of now-obvious falsehoods and outmoded ideological propaganda dating back to the ironically mislabeled “Enlightenment”.
We must look instead to the iconoclasts of the past, whose predictions have observably proven to be correct. Because events always follow the path of the correct logic that is rooted in the truth of Man and his behavior, not the false logic of useful madmen and their rosy-hued dreams that will inevitably turn out to be nightmares.
