A NORMIE’S GUIDE TO THE ALT-RIGHT

Welcome to your new reality, Normies.

by Colin Liddell

How tedious! Apparently Hillary Clinton, in a desperate attempt to deflect attention from her shit health and crap policies, is going to deliver a pus-filled speech attacking the Alt-Right and attempting to link us to Donald Trump. Although the speech will be turgid and full of laughable errors, it will nevertheless be boosted by the flailing energies of the zombie mainstream media, and thus become – albeit temporarily – quite a big deal.

She will probably refer to sites like Breitbart (and its enfant terrible Milo Yiannopoulis) to establish a link to Trump, as well as The Daily Stormer, TRS, and The Daily Shoah, because their hilarious "stormfagging," shorn of its context, humour and irony, provides the "scary racism" that she needs to adorn her narrative.

The speech will bring wider attention to the whole Alt-Right, and as the name-bearer of the movement, our site should see an uptick in concerned or curious "normie" traffic. So, with that in mind here is a quick, dumbed-down guide to the Alt-Right for the uninitiated.

What is the Alt-Right?

Most of you normies probably understand politics through the GOP vs. Democrats or Conservatives vs. Liberal models. That is understandable, as that is all the mainstream media tends to focus on if they can get away with it. The Alt-Right rejects this simple binary form of politics for the following reasons:

(i) It is a false dichotomy
(ii) It ignores the metapolitical dimension
(iii) It embeds false premises in the political debate

Point (i)
means that the two parties/political tendencies are not distinct or really opposed. Before Trump (and, to a lesser extent, Bernie Sanders) upset the apple cart, the two parties operated as an effective duopoly.

Slightly flawed meme

Both were essentially open borders, globalist parties, who held that ethnic and racial identitarianism (especially by Whites) was the capital sin. Both were agents of an economic system founded on exporting American debt and importing foreign unemployment. To do this they had to (a) destroy American jobs and (b) increase the public spending deficit to the point where debt creation soared. Both parties cooperated in this endeavour. The GOP enabled US investors to outsource production by lowering American tariffs, while the Dems made it more difficult to do skilled manufacturing at home (welfarism, minimum wage, affirmative action hiring, feminizing the workplace, etc.). The Dems boosted public spending while the GOP cut taxes, etc.

Point (ii) means that politics is not just limited to economics, but also involves cultural and philosophical dimensions. While, economically, the Dems and GOP have worked hand-in-glove on behalf of a poisonous globalism, there are differences between the supporters of the two parties regarding social and moral matters. Unfortunately for social conservatives, the Left entirely dominates the metapolitical realm in America, through its control of Hollywood, the media, and academia. This means that social conservatives have to put up with one Leftist advance after another. US conservatives appear not even to be aware of the metapolitical realm, let alone contest it. Hence they are forever outflanked by the Left.

Point (iii) means that the conventional political discourse accepts un-examined premises – points which are never properly debated because doing so is stigmatized as being evil and "literally Hitler." These premises, many of which are self-evidently false, are therefore "accepted" by both sides. These false premises are enforced by metapolitical means and through the tyranny of political correctness and Leftist control of the media. They include the following:

  • All races are equal and interchangeable
  • Racial difference is only skin deep
  • Equality is a good thing
  • Equalizing outcomes between races is a good thing
  • Diversity is a good thing
  • America is a "proposition nation" (and must accept new members even if they don't agree with the propositions)
  • Men and women should be equal and treated the same in all things
  • Gays and straights should be equal and treated the same in all things
  • Nationalism is bad and leads to wars
  • Globalism is good and leads to peace
  • The Holocaust was uniquely evil and was caused by nationalism
  • Slavery was uniquely evil
  • Segregation is uniquely evil
  • The economy must always grow
  • Religion is a purely private matter
  • Jewish power is not a thing (unless you claim it is)

Etc., etc. While some of these premises are still contended to some degree, the tendency is for them all to be enshrined against attack. You may secretly agree or disagree with these premises, but under the present system just questioning them, means that you will be demonized as "evil." Conservativism, with no metapolitical defences, is thus forced to go along with them. This weakness and deficiency is what called the Alt-Right into being.

Why is the Alt-Right?

As we see above, the Alt-Right is a movement founded on the need to reject the false political dichotomy that favours an increasingly Leftist and globalist world. But why should we be so opposed to this? The reason is quite simple: Leftist globalism is sick and degenerative, both in demographic and economic terms, and any individual or group that deems itself healthy – or which at least values health – must reject it.

Leftist globalism can only exist thanks to modernity and the power of technology. The more technologically backward or economically underprivileged areas are, the more they are forced to resort to traditional, localist, and hierarchical modes of existence, in order to survive. This is why Leftist globalism only exists in the West. But even with all its advantages, Leftist globalism is degenerative. We see this in the West, where the core populations are failing to reproduce and are thus in the process of being replaced by incomers from societies that are more technologically backward and economically underprivileged.

Because of the unexamined premise that "all races are equal and interchangeable," the Left does not see this as a problem, and thinks that the incomers will change and fully assimilate. The irony of course is that if they do, then they will suffer from the same inability to reproduce as the indigenous Westerners they are replacing, leading to a repetition of the cycle.

Ultimately, even by Leftist logic, the West – under Leftist Globalism – will forever be parasitical on non-Western populations to sustain itself.

Economically, Leftist Globalism leads to dysfunctional interdependence and power imbalances. I have already mentioned that America exports debt to countries such as China and Japan, which in return export their unemployment (in the form of manufactured goods) to America. The effect of this is that America has to absorb this unemployment through increasing social dysfunction. This takes the following forms:

  1. racial grievances
  2. high crime and counter crime
  3. mass incarceration
  4. unemployment
  5. inefficiency
  6. fake jobs and professions
  7. prolonged "education"

An interesting case in point is America’s Black population. Up to 1971, when America created the global debt system, by abandoning the gold standard, the country exported more or less what it imported. It had to. The fiat system allowed it to start exporting debt, a negative. But economics has its own karma. To balance this, it also had to import a negative. That was unemployment. This became apparent in the 70s and 80s when Japanese goods started to flood the American market.

But while Asian – and to a lesser extent – European export economies could store American debt conveniently in bank accounts and ledgers, unemployment has to be stored socially – i.e. in the lives of the people. To achieve this America needed to achieve levels of extreme social dysfunction. One means of achieving this was racial grievance – epitomized in the collapse of American cities like Detroit – a process which started to accelerate around this time.

Unemployment storage device.

The growing social alienation of the Black underclass, expressed in the removal of coercion through social discipline (aka Civil Rights and "desegregation"), and resulting in high unemployment and crime, created vast reservoirs of "unemployment storage," both in terms of actual unemployment and mass incarceration, but also in terms of the creation of essentially fake jobs like prison warders, security guards, social workers, legal operatives, etc., that would not be required in a healthy society.

Other forms of unemployment storage were a massive expansion of the educational system, which is basically a nice, pleasant form of unemployment storage for middle class people, and the continuation and expansion of a Cold War military establishment, which can basically be envisaged as unemployment storage for rural and urban White working class people.

The tendency of Leftist Globalism is to increase this system of debt for unemployment resulting in social dysfunction, leading to America becoming an increasingly pampered parasite on a global economy, where the real jobs – and eventually the real power – go elsewhere.

Those in the Alt-Right, to various degrees, realize how the present system multiplies weakness and dysfunction, especially in the West, and, as a healthy response, are motivated to oppose it with a burning and fanatical zeal.

Who is the Alt-Right?

The Alt-Right is both message and medium, both substance and form. 

Those inspired by it gravitate to different aspects of it, and participate with different levels of consciousness and involvement. 

Part of this is because we are a heretical movement, which the establishment fears and attacks. But they never attack us on the level of ideas. Instead we are attacked on the personal, social, and professional level. The Alt-Right is thus divided into the doxxed and the undoxxed, reflecting our opponents' inability to defeat our ideas. 

As medium or form, the Alt-Right has been an aspect of the internet and social media. Many of its operatives have been anonymous individuals – the undoxxed – operating through memes, trolling, shitposting, tweets, and other forms or expression. The attitude is ironic, intuitive, edgy, and shocking.

As message or substance, the Alt-Right is a collection of ideas, moral positions, and insights into the World that, like any ideology, has to justify itself by its inherent tonality and consistency. Here it is tied to a number of thinkers and writers – the doxxed – who are not anonymous, who publish books, have names, and maintain a steady stream of ever-improving content. The attitude is clear, rational, precise, and understated. 

Because of the opposition we face, the Alt-Right has assumed this "bimorphic" nature, existing on dual levels of meaning, truth, and form, but centred around an unassailable ideological core, built on absolute truths. This is a complete inversion of Marxism's own dialectical bimorphism, with a totalitarian world view centred around a core of dialectical uncertainty and lies. 

In contrast to their dead bimorphism, ours generates vitality, fertility, creativity, and energy. It is dialectical in formalistic terms rather than ideological. This also fuels the noticeable infighting in our movement, among those who agree with each other on the deepest aspects.

But it would be wrong to see this as weakness. 

While infighting in static, "unimorphic" movements is a sign of weakness, in a bimorphic movement like our own, it generates a positive energy that constantly renews and improves the movement. This is why our victory is inevitable.
