Now in its 11th year, Millenniyule is a mainstay of the Dissident Right. Its host, Millennial Woes, calls it a “warm-hearted celebration . . . [where] alternative voices . . . can heal from the damage incurred by opposing the mainstream.”
For Millenniyule 2025, Woes, as he is often called, delivered another solid lineup: Veterans such Greg Johnson, Jared Taylor, Morgoth, and Red Ice shared the spotlight with rising voices such as Richard the Fourth, Leonarda Jonie, and Jeff Younger. The event launched on December 10 and ended with a final AMA on December 30. Most evenings included four in-depth interviews, each averaging just under two hours. Woes made this grueling schedule look easy.
Guests were mostly from the United States and Britain, but it was very much an international celebration.
The national make-up of Millenniyule 2025 interview guests.
In his introduction, Woes highlighted a key shift. Back in 2015, he knew nearly everyone in the Online Right. Today, he can’t keep track of all the new podcasts, streamers, and influential social media accounts.
Across interviews, one theme dominated: Whites are waking up and fighting back. Demographics and anti-whiteness are worse, but nearly every white nation now puts up resistance. As Woes put it, “there is nowhere left for white flight.” More so than in previous years, Millenniyule 2025 conveyed a sense that whites will reclaim their nations. As if on cue, the Somali fraud scandal and the Compact Magazine exposé on DEI exploded during Millenniyule.
I listened to every interview and took away useful information and perspectives from all the guests. However, a few stood out for how clearly they described the current state of the Dissident Right as we move into 2026.
The editor of Counter-Currents has appeared on every Millenniyule since 2015. He opened with a sobering complaint: X still has not let him back on, and his Christmas wish was to come back.
Dr. Johnson argued that white identity politics drove Donald Trump’s 2024 election victory and this frightens our enemies. Yet leftist policies continue to push whites our way through anti-whiteness.
Non-whites openly organize along group lines and practice collectivism within an individualist society that whites built. Both the Left and non-whites benefit from white colorblindness, but this fatal error is quickly disappearing, especially among young people.
The future, Johnson contends, will be a direct clash between white identity politics and other forms of identity politics.
Whites created the nicest, most enviable societies in human history and then gave them away. That is who we are — and we have to stop being the last part. This will end when whites begin collectivizing and say, “We’re taking our own side in this fight.”
Dr. Johnson does not expect “the woke to be put away.” Instead, he predicts the Left and non-whites will intensify their anti-whiteness. Woes agreed and pointed to a new English streamer, Integral Views, as an example of how this is galvanizing whites. Once a center-left “Guardian reader,” he shifted after facing racial realities. He now supports remigration and reflects a growing number of formerly liberal British whites who worry about their children’s and grandchildren’s futures.
Dr. Johnson closed by emphasizing how quickly taboo thoughts are spreading. He recently overheard his own name mentioned in an Italian bar, and he knows that important men, such as JD Vance and Elon Musk, are familiar with and influenced by Dissident Right ideas.
A dissident historian, Mr. Weber made his Millenniyule debut in 2025, though he notes he has long occupied a “place of honor” on the ADL’s blacklist. He came to his worldview through extensive travel in Europe as a young man. Conversations with Europeans prompted him to challenge the standard American view of the Second World War and other aspects of history. Travel in Africa further sharpened his views. There, Mr. Weber concluded that people — not ideologies — build and sustain societies. This directly contradicted the prevailing American belief that anyone can become an American.
Mr. Weber observed that Americans today feel far less optimistic about the future than in previous generations. The “morning in America” rhetoric of Ronald Reagan has vanished. Civic nationalism is crumbling as whites have begun to ask fundamental questions they should have asked — and answered — decades ago. He offered a stark prediction: “As time goes on, it will become increasingly obvious that if white Americans are to have any future, America must break apart.”
“No foreigner looks at the United States today and says, ‘Boy, I wish our cities looked as good as American cities’,” he notes. The country may limp along for a while, but an external shock — war, economic collapse, or some other crisis — could topple a deeply divided nation that few Americans genuinely believe in.
When the United States fractures, what will emerge? Mr. Weber points to the collapses of the Austro-Hungarian, Roman, Ottoman, and Soviet empires and expressed doubt that the process will be peaceful.
Mr. Weber doubts that President Trump, whom he describes as shallow and obsessed with claiming he’s a “winner,” can reverse American decline. Whites have begun to fight back, however. He highlighted the rising popularity of Nick Fuentes among younger whites, attributing it to widespread betrayal by politicians who have abandoned their own people.
At the same time, Mr. Weber noted the election of Zohran Mamdani and foresees the Left in the US intensifying anti-whiteness. His conclusion:
White Americans are still trying to hold on to this thing called the United States of America. They still think it can all work out and wonder, “Why can’t we all get along?” But at some point that delusion will break down. Whites will say, “We give up on people who are not like us. We will return to the mid-century idea of race.” This will happen almost inevitably because the US cannot be saved when a majority of the population doesn’t share the same heritage and values and blames whites for their problems.
It was a good year for the editor of American Renaissance: He can now post on X and was also able to visit Europe after a five-year ban. He has been pleasantly surprised by President Trump. Apparently wiser after the failures of his first term, he has signed scores of executive orders removing DEI and other anti-white programs from the federal government. The border is sealed and many illegals are going back home thanks to ICE. Mr. Taylor was happy to report that the number of foreign-born people is down for the first time in over 50 years.
The interview covered some high profile racial attacks from 2025, such as the Iryna Zarutska and Austin Metcalf killing. Mr. Taylor, who has been tracking these attacks since 1990, argued that these killings became famous only because of social media. “Black behavior has not changed,” he said “There is no difference in black-on-white crime. The only thing that has changed is the number of people who hear about them, the number of people who are furious about them, and the number of people who say, ‘this has got to stop’.”
What will stop it? Mr. Taylor notes that “three strikes and you’re out” laws helped cut crime in the 1990s by putting three-time felons in prison for life. This sensible policy ended due to supposed overcrowding in prisons. He says we need the death penalty instead. Mr. Taylor also discussed Shiloh Hendrix and Crystal Wilsey: “White people are so sick of seeing fellow whites walked over by blacks that any white who shouts back is going to be a hero.”
The interview ended with Mr. Taylor citing reasons for optimism. The popularity of Nick Fuentes, the proliferation of pro-white internet activists, and the growing number of young Europeans united in outrage. He said he had growing confidence in the strength of what he calls the “World Brotherhood of Europeans.”
An English YouTuber who burst onto the scene this year through his videos, Richard the Fourth describes himself as a “normal English kid” who felt “challenged by modernity” as he grew up around diversity. As a teenager, he watched friends fall through what he calls “trap doors” of drugs and other personal problems.
At first, Richard the Fourth identified with the Left, but drifted right, and concentrated on building a career. He worked in publishing, but soon noticed wokeness spreading through the workplace. He tried to ignore it but saw it expanding.
An old Woes interview, in which a guest discussed differences between Haiti and the Dominican Republic, pushed Richard the Fourth to think about race and IQ. When he raised these issues with acquaintances, he says they had no answers and warned him not to talk about race at all. He rejected conservative “race-blindness,” because it avoids difficult questions. Thinkers such as René Guenon led him to believe that hierarchy is natural. He began making male-oriented YouTube videos on spirituality and meaning.
Richard the Fourth notes that a moral shift has already begun among whites out of necessity and that leftists have no answer but censorship. “When racial attacks happen once every few months you can get away with it, calling whites ‘racist’ for opposing diversity. But when the attacks are every day, you can’t accuse people of hate.” Working-class and poor Brits get the worst of anti-whiteness, but others are starting to feel the pain. He mentioned a man in London who started talking to him about the Great Replacement without any prompting.
“I grew up in Leicester (now a majority non-white city in the English Midlands) where I was told whites don’t have a culture” he says, “but Jamaicans have a culture and Indians have a culture.” He argues for a pan-European alliance: “We will never take on the whole strength of the globalist regime on our own. We have to work together with a broad coalition of countries who think alike.”
Known online as Black-Pilled, Mr. Stack once had nearly a quarter-million YouTube followers and made a living from streaming until Biden-era censorship and demonetization struck. He now broadcasts on Rumble and Odysee, to a much smaller audience.
True to his moniker, Mr. Stack was pessimistic, and noted American whites will soon become a minority. He expressed little hope in President Trump’s second term. He fell for his 2016 campaign promises — build the wall, mass deportations, quash the Left — but refuses to get burned again.
Mr. Stack puts a lot of blame on the boomers for white dispossession. Even many Trump-voting boomers still cling to post-World War II racial propaganda. They grew up in a 90-percent-white America and enjoyed nearly all-white schools, neighborhoods and workplaces. The handful of non-white immigrants were tolerable because their numbers were so low they hardly had any real influence. When boomers think of non-white immigrants today, they often still imagine them as servants, mowing lawns, cleaning toilets and staying “in their place.”
In the 1990s, when Mr. Stack first began noticing race, no one spoke of “anti-whiteness.” Society assumed all racial hostility was the fault of whites. Television and movies shaped most people’s views, and he recalls European exchange students in high school who casually said poor American whites were vicious racists — without ever having met one.
He points to black-on-white violence as a prime example of misinformation on race. Such attacks have always occurred, but the media rarely covered them. In one of his recent streams, Mr. Stack demolished the popular narrative of the white serial killer, showing that most serial killers are black and tend to kill whites.
Mr. Stack still finds reasons for hope. Whites are buying land and establishing intentional communities in South Africa, Britain, and the United States, and he expects more of this. Like nearly every Millenniyule guest, he sees whites awakening to reality through necessity. Even his own mother now complains that “there are no whites on TV anymore.”
The era of whites quietly accepting lectures on “racism” appears to be over. Even Elon Musk has retweeted white advocates. Mr. Stack credits the Dissident Right for laying the intellectual groundwork for this, though it paid a steep price. “We should be patting ourselves on the back a little bit,” he said.
A popular Britain-based writer and YouTuber, Morgoth was doxxed this year. It was unpleasant, but he explained that times have changed and no one cares very much about cancellations. In fact, he said, left-wing “watchdog” groups are increasingly viewed as responsible for the rape gangs and anti-whiteness plaguing Britain.
For many years, working-class Brits have borne the brunt of diversity and wokeness. Now, the middle class is facing the consequences due to the sheer number of immigrants. Many are hypocritical about it and see nothing wrong with opposing migrants where they live, but still approve of non-whites being housed among poorer whites.
A decade ago, Morgoth was the only one in his circle who talked about changing demographics. He only half-jokingly claims that he is now the moderate. In a trend noted by several guests, he routinely hears complaints about racial realities from everyday whites who don’t even know his politics.
Morgoth brought up the “Yookay Aesthetics” X account that “chronicles the new Britain” with photos of the absurdities of daily life. It’s effective because it’s usually just pictures; words aren’t required: “People immediately despise the country that created these scenes.” Leftists are less and less able to define culture. The New Statesman wrote a worried article about how subversive Yookay Aesthetics is.
Like most British guests, Morgoth thinks Reform will win the next election. He doesn’t have much hope for great change, but he knows Dissident Right supporters active in the party. He said it would be ironic if the surveillance tools used by the Left to monitor us end up being used against the Left itself.
Other highlights of Millenniyule 2025:
A Texas father, Mr. Younger described his fight to protect his young son after the child’s mother “transitioned” him without his consent. He said Republicans and conservatives often fail to help fight wokeness, warning in particular about “tone policing” from supposed allies. He pointed out that even in Texas, leftist judges dominate the courts. Although he ultimately lost his case, he shared lessons from the experience and urged activists to focus on funding Republican politicians, because money drives their priorities.
A German dissident, Shlomo recounted his time in prison for pro-white activism. He noted that jails in eastern Germany remain overwhelmingly white, while those in the west are majority black and Arab. In an often humorous interview, he described several close calls and tense moments during his incarceration.
A streamer based in Quebec, Mr. Gariepy will be publishing a book in 2026 called “White People’s Food,” which highlights the variety of white cuisine from around the world and takes on the puzzling stereotype that white people have bad food.
An Austrian influencer who appreciates the great culture of his people, Mr. Lichtmesz enjoys going to museums in Vienna, even though they are controlled by leftists. He described his despondency as a repulsive tour guide ruined an otherwise fine exhibit with her inane comments. Later that same day, however, he discovered a small gallery featuring a traditionalist and highly skilled painter, and the two discussed the artist’s work at length.
There were three women among the interviewees on this year’s Milleniyule. Leonarda Jonie is a professional comedienne who has become a prominent pro-white influencer. Aydin Paladin is a former academic who persuasively debunks leftist hokum with research and data. Elizabeth Heverin is an English activist who made a stink by opposing wokeness at her university. We will no doubt be hearing more from these talented ladies in 2026.
During the interviews, Woes shared his own views:
I don’t think we’re going to go extinct. Something will happen. This can’t go on much longer. Twenty years from now, things won’t continue as they are. We may see hard-right governments enforcing remigration. . . .
The Left despises right-wingers so much that I don’t see how reconciliation is possible. . . .
For a lot of people now, multiculturalism just means white girls getting raped. If you could show the present to our ancestors . . . they would be incensed.
Millennial Woes was banned from most platforms several years ago, but is now back on X. He streams on smaller, less censored venues such as Odyssee and Rumble, but some of his interviews got 600 live viewers. How much bigger would the Millenniyule audience be if he could stream on YouTube?
For 11 years, Woes has fought censorship and repression to keep Milleniyule alive. He almost had to cancel this year’s Millenniyule because of financial difficulties. His only income is from writing and streaming. The best way to support him is to subscribe to his Substack.
This year’s Millenniyule showcased the optimism of the Dissident Right. As we move into 2026, it seems all the energy and talent are on our side. Leftists still control most of our nations, but our ideas are breaking through. Without the censorship of the Biden years — which has not entirely gone away — we would be even further ahead.
The coming year will be interesting. I am already looking forward to Millenniyule 2026.
