Founded in 2025, Populists seeks to carry the vision of the populist movement forward––transforming it into a more authentic, effective, and actionable movement. Americanism, not globalism. Not left versus right, but rather bottom versus top––class consciousness.

The origins of this project began after the founder went over a year post-graduation with only one job offer. They graduated in STEM (neuroscience) debt-free after attending a top 15 public university on a merit-based full-ride scholarship. After seeing the decay of the nation, they knew they could not set back and wait for change, but instead had to be the change that they wanted to see.

Our country is having a crisis of faith. We have lost faith in God, in our institutions, and in our destiny as a people. This absence has left the foundational pillars of America in ruins and constructed a kleptocracy where oligarchs control the populace. Immigration has spiraled into a mass invasion, eroding our identity as Americans. Our cities, once shining achievements of our prosperous civilization, are now symbols of decline and decay. Our people have been taught to hate themselves and their ancestors, all the while being encouraged to embrace degeneracy and sin.

Our forefathers created this nation with their blood, sweat, and tears. Their struggle produced a country rooted in Christ, family, and virtue. Following in their footsteps, we aim to restore those lost values while building a happy, healthy, and prosperous future. Much like our ancestors, we strive to create a home with dignity.

Almost always, movements against elites and entrenched powers come and go. They always make the same mistakes. The intelligence agencies infiltrate the movements and weaken them, they focus their energy on problems that either do not matter (symptoms) or are caused by a root of the problem (they lose sight of the core issue), they give up, internal division/infighting, entrenched powers co-opt a movement by offering partial concessions or absorbing its rhetoric without meaningful change, and more. This movement needs to be strong, persistent, and unforgiving until the change necessary comes.

People always said they had enough and they are upset, but clearly not enough to actually do something significant. If you were angry enough, you would not be used the way you are being used. And this is exactly how we are in this situation to begin with--we allow it. Otherwise, we can just continue the cycle of a movement starting, walking two steps forward, and then making no further progress--repeating until we all have grey hair. and then pass the problems onto our children after a miserable life spent bitching instead of doing something to fix the situation. 

While we take inspiration from the past, our movement is focused on the future as we plot a new course for America in the decades and even centuries to come. We are tapping into the creativity of our nation’s young, born and raised in a technologically rich, but spiritually poor era. It is these visionaries who will remake the American character, grounding it in classical American virtue and societal excellence. Populists is carving a path forward that is truly revolutionary. With your continued help and support, this movement can actualize its vision for the future, forging a new version of America, worthy of our posterity. Vox Populi, Vox Dei.
