Doctrine

The Goals of the Reactionary Movement
-last updated on September 17th, 2025-

Based on hundreds of hours of conversations with tens of thousands of supporters and critics from all over the world, the Reaction has devised the following “doctrine”. The doctrine summarizes our goals and intentions.

This document may remain a work in progress for a long time until the dust settles. For now, it’s a starting point, meant to give the movement its first directions.

As a goal-oriented movement, we organize ourselves not by functional departments, but by callings: Spiritual Renewal, Growth and Development, Material Mastery, and Political Ambition.

I. Spiritual Renewal

“Heavenly things must be sought first, and then things material.”

Finding Salvation

We understand that true salvation comes not from progress, but from a conversion. This means we are aiming for a radical break with the recent past. The age of progress since Karl Marx has proven nothing but an age of slow decline. Technological progress that was supposed to elevate the masses, has eased the decline, but couldn’t stop it. Since the only progress scientists could create was material, this progress has impoverished our spirits and souls.

Abolishing Feminism

We shall abolish feminism in favor of a benevolent patriarchy. Some people say that ending feminism means excluding women from public life. But we’re not the Taliban. The same people who say this also didn’t know that feminism was about erasing the male sex from existence, to then erase the biological family and to create the gender-confused society (see Shulamith Firestone’s The Dialectic of Sex). The Reaction will remove such “madwomen” (radical feminists) from positions of public influence, but women shall continue playing their appropriate roles in shaping society along men. Men and women can be each other’s supporters instead of each other’s competitors.

The Family

The family, then, is the cornerstone of society.

Initiation Rites

Teenagers deserve suitable initiation rites to guide them into adulthood.

Classroom Education

We shall phase out the sort of classroom education that forces children to sit still all day. Instead, we shall promote goal-oriented education, namely toward goals such as laid out in this very doctrine. The goal of education is to develop functional adults, possessing of skills and competencies, along with growing one’s knowledge and the recollection of facts. Certainly in the case of most boys, and in the case of many girls, children should use and move their bodies toward meaningful activities. Children can be safely included in farming activities, and teenagers may participate in hands-on apprenticeships. Instead of postponing adulthood and life’s milestones, we help the young mature appropriately. It is plainly idiotic to maintain that “young people must study textbooks for 15 years in order to know how to live”. The focus of education should not be on reading from textbooks, learning by rote, and reproducing information.

Aristocratic Masculinism

We promote the values of aristocratic masculinism. Men deserve the possibility of entering a warrior caste. Traditional role models are needed for boys and girls; ending the suicide spree, gender confusion, offering better support. This implies boys and men ought to be acquainted with the principles of confrontationalism, especially toward foes and enemies. We don’t, in fact, need to please everyone and be kind to everyone. We ought to, instead, teach males that it is healthy and good to fight back against what is wrong. A man should be trained to be a fairly independent actor who can decide for himself what is right or wrong. A religious morality guides his path.

A Place for the Mythologies

Our worldview is Christian but we may honor the many mythologies of our ancestors, inlcuding the Greek and Roman pantheons, as well as Celtic, Germanic and other myths. From mythology, we learn about our ancestors’ personalities.

A Culture of Inner Validation

We favor a cultural with a focus on inner validation (confidence, suitability, order) as opposed to the American drive for “excellence” (really, external validation).

Reclaiming History

We shall agressively restore our history in favor of heroic narratives. The past has come under attack from progressive revisionists, always rewriting history in favor of this or that modern fad (such as socialism). Concerning the Afro-centrist rewriting of European history, i.e., claiming that cetrain pale North Africans were somhow sub-Sharan blacks living in London, and then to claim black Africans built London, must be condemned as a pornographic travesty. This weird propaganda, meant to erase White people from the past, must be condemned and rooted out. We have been dwelling too long, for example, on the excesses of slavery and colonialsm, not only by completely ignoring the tremendously beneficial impact of our legacy, but also by ignoring the fact that other races, such as the Arabs, never bothered to investigate their own massive share in the slavery of Africansm, let alone the African involvement (the Ghanean Kingdom of Dahomey) in the for-profit capture of their own brethren.

Deconstructing Borderline Governments

We shall deconstruct the so-called “borderline governments” that have, for too long, treated their own peoples as scapegoats (for racism, slavery, or colonialism), while unfairly treating everyone else as the “golden children”, regardless of merit. Western nations shall have to treat their own people best, not the other way around.

Rebuilding the Priestly Caste

For the sake of transforming our societies, it is of greatest importance to re-establish a traditional priestly class. What were once called “magicians”, of course, are what we now call “high IQ” people, namely, people with the gift of foresight, premonition, and far-seeing imagination. By secluding the selected gifted, as traditionally was done, from the common population, and by initiating them into the “occult” (i.e., the unseen and the unknown), we intend to create a ruling caste of high priests who shall govern our civilization. It is no different from the old Britons who once used to be ruled by such a priestly caste situated in or around Cornwall. This elite, behind the scenes, guided public leaders, even princes and kings, and were the sole deciders on matters of peace and war.

A Religious State

Putting an end to the separation of church and state. A priestly class to advise worldly leaders

The New Rebirth

In education, we shall promote a new Renaissance, namely the re-discovery of the oft neglected Christian theologians such as Thomas Aquinas and many others. The present overfocus on pre-Christian thinkers has led many to believe that Europeans were “backward”. But the Dark Ages weren’t dark. They were centuries of immense spiritual growth.

II. Growth and Development

“Neglecting one’s means of existence is sinning against the commandment Thou shalt not kill.”

Non-Material Medicine

We promote a return to non-material medicine, i.e., doing away with medicating everything. The problem with modern “medicine” education is that it focuses almost exclusively on molecular and material solutions, as though people were gearboxes and doctors can fix anything with the right wrench and oil. A lot of modern health problems, however, stem from spiritual deprivation, the loss of personality due to having one’s mind shattered in school, and the inability to freely dream due to work-related stress. Some people even go back to work in their sleep. The modern world has made people feel hunted, pushing beyond their limits to achieve material success.

Time to Develop Oneself

A man should not be so overworked that he cannot develop his personality or analyze his dreams. We weren’t born to be work horses. A lot of modern jobs resemble prisons that keep men indoors, in office buildings, while doing nothing of importance.

German Idealism

Thus, we demand the philosophical end to materialism in favor of what was once called ‘German idealism’. This means to banish the Marxian educational idea that “everything in existence is matter in motion”. Instead, we shall teach children that they have a soul, a mind of their own, a free will, and a consciousness; that they are spirits, not atoms; beings, not gears.

Local Business

We favor local family businesses over corporate finance. A famous example is the way Monsanto owns the copyrights to certain seeds, and that this letes such corporations extort farmers for licensing right. Though such neo-feudal mob schemes may be highly proftiable, the CEOs and shareholders of such schemes ough to spend the rest of their lives in prison. The idea that ever bigger corporations ought to control people and their means of existence is a modern invention of the post-industrial world. We desere a strong middle class as oppoosed to an algorithmic ant colony.

Problems with Capitalism

The Reaction, then, also favors the principles of European value-additive capitalism (which adds value to a society, leaving people enriched while the elite act as guardians) over American profit-extracting capitalism (which extracts profits from its environment, leaving society impoverished and the elite enriched, as though the overclass were a parasite).

We acknowledge, furthermore, the difference between corporate and state capitalism. In the West, corporations buy the politicians. In the East, the state buys CEOs. The downsides of both ought to be overcome by installing a form of theocracy. The civilization as a whole should no longer be governed by financial interests, but by collective spiritual needs.

Solving the Housing Crisis

We intend to solve the housing crisis. We will convert long-time renters into home-owners, so that their rents become mortgage payments. The purpose of life is not to wire one’s salary to one’s landlord every month. Above all, the women of one’s own nation should always have priority access to housing before any immigrants. It has been a ludicrous travesty of justice that migrants and their children jumping off of a boat can have housing at all, whereas, at the same time, women born of their nation can’t have families due to the housing shortage. Birth rates, in the end, are controlled by housing availability, and thus, it makes no sense for the West to offer its housing to the children of foreign races. If we have to reduce our birht rates to get by, others should too. We are not some spillover land, some field dump for the unwanted.

Demoting the ‘Laptop Class’

The “laptop class” will recognize that they are not the oppressed. An academic working at a university is not “working class”. The workers’ freedom movements such as Canada’s Trucker Convoy have led to many arrests, bank account seizures, and other oppressive measures meant to safeguard the jobs of the bureaucratic laptop class. This has severely crippled a society that, in effect, could do without so many bureaucratic officials, since they serve no real purpose.

Healthy Diets

We reject veganism and recognize that our race evolved on the consumption of meat and dairy foods. Veganism in its militant form ought to be considered a hostile attack on our being, as though it were using our food systems as an attack vector. The vegan movement is harmful and possibly foreign propaganda. European used to eat a lot of meat and dairy during the colder months of the year (when plants and crops died), whereas in the summertime, we returned to eating more carbs and sugars from fruits and vegetables.

Militarist Men

We recognize that certain “fascist” or “far-right” men actually belong in the ranks of the military, in a military organization. They are not inherently a problem, but rather, the feminized societies of the modern West have excluded such men from their natural warrior castes and classes. For men who wish to fight, there should be a clear and acceptable path forward in life, namely by joining a warrior guild. Let us avoid feminizing such aggressive men, but rather, let us put their aggression to proper use for the benfit of society. Overly meek, men, however, must be prevented from seeking office, for their rule has, in the past, led to the excesses of progressive liberalism (transgenderism, minority favoritism, DEI self-flagellation, etc.).

Diversity or Death

In case the diversity we inherited from past progressives proves deadly enough to end civilization, we shall have to overthink the possibility of a societal caste system to restore order. Those who never opposed the Indian caste system, while relentlessly pointing out “White racism”, of course, shall have no say in this matter.

III. Material Mastery

We exist in a material world, and we shall become masters of it.

Cleaning up the Environment

We shall heal the river Rhine so that the Atlantic Salmon may one day return, swim upstream, and lay its eggs. (The goal is to preserve our rivers for posterity.) Along with this project, our aim is to support the healing of all the world’s main rivers. The great rivers of the world—such as the Yellow River, the Nile, the Ganges, the Volga, the Mississippi and many others—should carry life, not poison; fond memories, not trash. Likewise, we aim to replant Europe’s lost forests, return abandoned industrial sites to nature, clean up pollution, and increase the amount of wildlife.

De-Urbanization

We reject the “Death Star-ification” of Earth, i.e., we oppose turning our planet into a giant ball of glass and steel that is being abused as a second-rate gas station. We shall instead quietly work to restore Europe’s picturesque, pastoralist qualities of the past, back when cities were walkable and nature was always nearby. We want the inverse of what New York City has become: Parks don’t belong in cities, cities belong in parks.

Recognizing that cities have become, in many ways, unhealthy and unconductive to human life, we begin phasing out the idea of dense, individualist urban living in favor of rural family life, thus returning people to the land, and the land to the people.

Space Exploration

We aren’t afraid of the Nothingness and shall push technological advances by exploring space. To this end, we set several outrageous goals, the point of which being that we aim for their accomplishment while we develop the necessary advances along the way:

  1. The Venus Regatta. To develop spacecraft with sails so large that they “fly” on sunbeams, and then to organize races around planet Venus and back.

  2. We may tap into Venetian heat to fuel operations on Earth, or even attempt to terraform Venus into a sister planet of Earth (since Venetian gravity would be similar).

  3. To mine the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter for resources lacking on Earth.

  4. To establish a permanent presence on planet Mars, in particular the establishment of a Martian university called the Mars Academy.

Fusion or Fiction

On the acquisition of energy: Though the promise of nuclear fusion energy may have been an elaborate hoax designed to draw taxpayer funds, it remains an elusive dream without conclusive evidence. We either prove or disprove the possibility of nuclear fusion. If proven, we shall next reduce the size of fusion reactors to fit into aircraft, ocean-worth vessels, factories, and spaceships in order to provide clean and stable energy. If disproven, we shall develop other, yet unknown sources of energy.

Replanting the Forests

Contrariwise, it is entirely realistic to assume that around the start of the 22nd century, humanity will be burning wood as its main source of energy. If this is going to be the case, we shall be prepared for it, namely by spending this century replanting Europe’s forests. While we’re at it, we may put an end to the wind and solar scam.

A Labor-Based Economy

We recognize that human labor and human ingenuity are, and have always been, the foundation of any civilization. However, the American attitude of “buying the world’s best minds and talents” is a deadly shortcut that can only undermine one’s society. A people’s talent ought to be trained and supported from within. What good are a people who have no skill but must pay immigrants to do the work they cannot do? For this reason, we oppose mass immigration of undermen undercutting natives. Instead, we favor the development of skills and competences in our own younger generations, forcing us to take a slow or long-term approach to nation building.

A March Through the Institutions

We need a march through the institutions to end progressivism; explain the need for a return to tradition, the revolt against the modern world. We shall seek appropriate responses to the most extreme crimes committed against us, such as the grooming gang scandal (mass gang rapes of native girls all over the Western world). If such crimes go unpunished, it will only invite more hostile populations to repeat them.

The End to Central Banking

We shall put an end to the central banking scheme that is really a scam meant to rob the people while elites offload their losses. The way quatitiatve easing and inflation nowadays work to undermine the value of people’s assets is not a way forward. We favor a labor- and ingenuity-based economy.

IV. Political Ambition

We exist in relation to others, so we must make a stand for ourselves, lest we be trampled.

The Kingdom of Jerusalem

The Reaction favors a one-state solution to the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine, namely by establishing in their places the Kingdom of Jerusalem, a Christian State.

Defending the Means of Existence

Our nations shall aggressively reconquer what is rightfully ours, without which we cannot exist. Much of the Western world has been sold off to foreign buyers, due to the growing debt that the West owes the rest of the world. However, we cannot allow foreign nations and individuals, at this scale, to own our farmland, infrastructure, technology, or other national means of existence.

Strategic Autonomy for Europe

Concerning the Atlantic, Europe will make itself independent of U.S. leadership, either by abandoning NATO or by expelling the USA from NATO. Either way, Europe must cultivate its own warrior classes, armies, and defense infrastructure, so that we regain strategic autonomy from American powers. That way, Central Europe, led by Germany, can reclaim its rightful place in world history. We do not abandon the USA merely to submit ourselves to Russia, Turkey, China, or potential North-African and Middle-Eastern aggressors, but rather to establish Europe as a solid backbone between East and West, between the Atlantic and Eurasia, i.e., as a Hercules holding upright the pillars of global civilization.

No Eurafrica

We reject Eurafrica. There will be no fusion between Europe and Africa and their peoples. The natural boundaries that are the Mediterranean Sea and the Sahara Desert must be respected. This means that mass migration from Black Africa into Europe must be discouraged, stopped, and largely reversed, for example, by investing in improvements to the sub-Saharan infrastructure, in order to provide for African needs of wealth and luxury, and by incentivizing Africans to migrate to Asia instead.

No Eurabia

We reject Eurabia. There will be no fusion between Arab Islam and Christian Europe, and no alliance of the faiths. Europe and its native peoples shall defend, maintain, and strengthen their Christian heritage. Those foreigners permitted to live in Europe ought to convert to Christianity and be exercised in European ways of life.

The Face of Eurasia

Concerning Eurasia, we declare Europe the Face of Eurasia, whereas we regard China the “dragon’s tail”, a powerful and dangerous ally, but ultimately, the tail’s end must stay out of Europe’s reach. We promote, therefore, Europe’s independence, though not its isolation. As with the ancient Silk Road, China’s Belt and Way Initiative (BWI) shall inevitably connect the economies of Eurasia. Europe shall be a trustworthy supporter of shared interests. But it is Europe that shall be the source of cultural and creative advances. We do not submit Europeans or Christians to a Chinese way of life, nor do we tolerate a digital prison or credit-score totalitarianism.

Sub-Arctic Conquest

We must pursue the conquest of the sub-Arctic, for these lands are still sparsely populated, with a combined size greater than the present EU landmass. We need to think about strategic relocation. If climate change were indeed to heat up the planet, then we have an obligation to prepare for pastoralism and agriculture in these far-north regions, since, at the same time, Southern Europe may be lost to desertification. If, however, the temperatures drop instead, then all of Northern Europe will become like the sub-Arctic. In this scenario, we prepare for the exodus of hundreds of millions of Europeans into North Africa and the Middle East. If the temperatures remain constant, then we have an obligation to maintain and improve the existing European infrastructure for the long term.

Europe

Europe, housing the majority of our people, should act as a supporter of its offshoots around the world (USA, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa and other such places).

Rejecting the Rules-Based Order

We reject the secular rules-based order. Restoring national sovereignty, even micronationalism such as under the Holy Roman Empire, is preferable to the rules-based globalism. NGO bodies such as the Open Society or the World Economic Forum shouldn’t have a say in the lives of so many people. Our lives should be guided spiritually, and therefore we reject the secular state (profit motive) in favor of Christian theology (humanity first).

Jumping the Shadow

As per Oswald Spengler, we believe that European civilization may “jump its shadow” and outlast its collapse, namely on the condition that we begin working on the Revival immediately. Using the kinetic energy released from the expected collapse of global urban meta-civilization, we may find that we, freed from the restrictions of overly regimented jobs, have the right creatie energy to overcome our demise, and to resurrect our civilization.

Hardship as a Defensive Weapon

Ultimately, by making Europe a place of hardship, we may cultivate the attitudes necessary for dealing with the rest of the world.
