AMERICANS DREAM OF DEPORTING 'SLEEPERS'



As Vox Day so rightly says, Trump’s remark on DACA during his State of the Union address – “Americans are dreamers too” – was a masterstroke of rhetoric. On the minus side, I have to say I’m not as sanguine as Vox about Trump’s capacity to resist giving amnesty to 1.8 million illegal immigrants in exchange for a border wall – which, given that the job of guarding it would end up in the hands of a ruling elite determined to look the other way, would serve America about as well as the Great Wall served China when it was opened to the invading Manchus. Deporting the so-called DREAMers is vastly more important than building a border wall – and this, for all its importance, is only a single battle in the long metapolitical war against their patrons in the ruling elite.

VOX DAY, ANDREW ANGLIN, AND THE MISUNDERSTANDING OF NAZIISM

by Colin Liddell

The recent debate between Vox Day and Andrew Anglin (now deleted by those anti-free-speech bigots YouTube) was an odd sort of mismatch. I don’t mean that in the sense that one of the parties was far superior to the other. In fact there was a rough equality — while Vox was clearly smarter and better educated, Anglin had more cunning. No, the mismatch I am referring to was that between two creatures that inhabit different realms and can’t really get to grips with each other in any meaningful way. On social media, I likened it to a battle between a gadfly and a tadpole.

THE ALT-RIGHT AS THE ULTIMATE FREEDOM


The good thing about a lot of our problems is that they are intractable or at least can’t be reduced to simplistic formula or solutions. For example, would "nationalism for everyone" (© The Alt-Lite, 2016) even work when some groups are still struggling with the tribal stage? I think not – and then what do you do when all those areas revert back to rainforests/savannah and the Chinese move in?

The paradoxical nature of many of the vast issues that the Alt-Right concerns itself with – the destiny of man, the spiritual vacuum of modernity, the nature of morality – is also the reason that normie politics sticks to the relatively unchallenging minutiae of tax codes, welfare benefits, and drone strikes.
