ReichsfolkReichsfolk: A neo-nazi organization, founded by David_Myatt. Reichsfolk claims to be a cultural and religious organization whose aims are to "present the truthful reality of National-Socialism. The truth is that National-Socialism is an idealistic and noble way of life based upon the principles of honour, reason, fairness, loyalty, duty to one's own people, and to Nature, and respect for and understanding of other cultures and other ways of life." The Reichsfolk Declaration claims that "the kind of National-Socialism that Reichsfolk seeks to establish — and all pure, genuine, National-Socialist organizations seek to establish — is a civilized and rational National-Socialism that rejects and opposes any kind of oppression, subjugation and intolerance toward others on account of culture, belief or race. Reichsfolk also opens its arms in friendship to all the peoples of the world, on the basis of mutual respect and honour." The ideological foundations of Reichsfolk derive from the later works of David Myatt, who has propagated what he describes as a new evolutionary, and non-racist, form of National-Socialism (distinct from National Socialism), based upon the concept of personal honour. These works include writings with titles like The Religion of National-Socialism, and Why National-Socialism Is Not Racist.
