One of the most important books of the white supremacist movement, and perhaps one of the most controversial books since ''[[Mein Kampf]]'', ''The Turner Diaries'' is about a group of white supremacists who are fighting a guerrilla war against the US government in a dystopian era where, controlled by the [[Greedy Jew|Israeli Zionists]] and using the blacks as shock troops, the government terrorizes the public into supporting the "mongrelization" of the white race.
Written by William Luther Pierce, founder of massive white nationalist group National Alliance, who credited himself as [[Pen Name|Andrew Macdonald]]

* [[Right-Wing Militia Fanatic]]: The protagonists.
* [[Sophisticated As Hell]]: The protagonist whenever he gets philosophical. On occasion, he will stop to make a reflective comment about the situation, using extremely polished dialogue as if he were a college professor dictating a doctoral thesis. Once that's done, his

* [[Throwaway Country]]: The only remorse the Organization has about turning much of Asia into an uninhabitable wasteland is that it will take a long time to colonize.
* [[Took a Level In Dumbass]]: After a certain point, everyone not on the side of the racists takes multiple levels in this.
