Wait, you're telling me that there is folk music derived from industrial music and the people who make it are loving Nazis?

This makes me - a former violinist, former industrial-loving goth, and current folk music lover - very, very sad. (Please tell me there's someone who makes this sort of music who is not a Nazi.)

They're pretty much all terrible, mostly because there's just no way out of sounding like you just ran Dead Can Dance and Type O Negative through a blender, then slowed it down.

Let's not paint it all with too broad a brush. I mean there are other genres hoaching with nazis or pseudonazis too, like post-punk or black metal, it's just that the smaller the niche the more visible the fascists are. I suppose also the mroe extreme the genre, the more it's drawn to extreme subject matter and shock value, the more likely it is to incorporate elements of fascism even just for performative purposes.

Neofolk will never not be hilarious to me because it is entirely an accident of history. Musically speaking Industrial and Neo-Folk have pretty much nothing in common at all.

indeed, you wouldn't get industrialists listening to Leonard Cohen soundalikes otherwise.

However, as I note, early industrialist Fad Gadget was recording in the late '80s and '90s under his real name, Frank Tovey, doing stirring socialist rants that were pretty dark folky sounding ...

There's Death in Rome, they're pretty nice! They do for neofolk what Laibach did for industrial: show that top 10 pop music is basically all fascist anthems anyway.

Really, play that Death In Rome shakycam live set, it's great. I played it for the loved one to much delight as they slowly worked out what songs DiR were doing ...

Prior to the Italo-Abyssinian war there was a decent-sized contingent of leftists within futurism too, so I suppose it's mostly a matter of futurism emerging in a bad place at a bad time -- though that might have been the only set of circumstances it could have emerged in.

It's not really contrarianism, it's that many white people invest much of their self-worth in their whiteness, whether they realize it or not, and any attack on the behavior of white people or the institution of whiteness is treated by these people as an attack on their innermost selves.

Here, have it from some actual PoC who have had to deal with white people's poo poo personally:

Abagond
John Trudell
Chauncey DeVega

There were others that I've read but I cannot find them on short notice.

Found a complete transcript of the John Trudell speech with bits that Abagond's excerpt didn't include:

John Trudell posted:

Anyway, Columbus got here...and he didn’t know what it meant to be a human being. See, that perceptional reality of being a human being, and what it really meant, had been erased from descendants of the tribes of Europe, by the time they got here. So when we introduced ourselves to the European as human beings, they, just didn’t get it. It wasn’t a part of their perceptional reality. They might know how to say the words. Alright?, but being a human being had changed in their reality.

This is what I mean about whiteness and how white people take it into our very innermost selves, usually handed down from our parents, and it twists and corrupts us. Many, probably most, white people can't handle understanding this. The cognitive dissonance overwhelms them, they shut down, they blame the person of color for being uppity, for "playing the race card", whatever excuse they can think of to not confront themselves and what they are part of.

Business is slow

As I said in the first post about this topic, there are some red flags that one can notice about dating women. Some are specific, private, others are more like general guidelines. I have collected some other red flags on trying to date women again, and will list some of them here:

1) She has a lot of pictures in social media. Like it or not, a good part of dating nowadays is done through the computer, since we are doing more and more stuff through the computer, be it working, or unwinding.

A girl that has a lot of pictures of herself, like in the hundreds, or even thousands, on social media, is a red flag, unless she's been posting them for a lot of time. And maybe not even then.

Of course, these are pictures of herself, posing, filtered, all that crap. I´m not talk of landscapes here.

2) A lot of those pictures are of herself in various different styles. If a girl/woman has a lot of pictures with several types and colors of hair, several types and styles of fashion, or clothing, this is also a red flag.

I don´t know why specifically, but it has something to do with her personality changing a lot. I´m not a psychologist, but I gotta say, that I had a curious experience with a girl that fit this bill exactly. She even had a picture of herself made of smaller ones in which everyone of those were of her with a different hair style, and color of hair, on different days, but clearly during a small period of time.

Nothing wrong with changing hair style and color, but if the girl changes her hair in the same way she changes clothing, then you might have a red flag right there.

3) She is a social media queen. I´m not even talking about famous or semi-famous people here. But if she has FB, Twitter, Instagram, and whatever other bullshit like these going on, and she actively tries to juggle all her accounts with pictures of herself, her interests, in order to gather compliments and attention from strangers on a daily basis, you might want to reconsider talking to this woman. Not that she will talk to you that much anyway. She'll probably block you for no reason, after seeing you are not making hundreds of thousands of dollars a year anyway, or some such craptastic reason like that.

4) She is very religious. Do I really need to go into this one? Mentions God every two pictures/posting or less. Or Gods. Whatever. Very religious tends to equal crazy. Get out.

5) She does not care about you. I´ve talked about this one before. And look, I'm not a utopist, ok? I know that people in general don't give a flying f@ck about others. It´s hard to care.

I know.

But when you are trying to choose a mate, at least pretend! At least try. Otherwise just go down a bar and get a one night stand, or if you are a male, go to a hooker.

If the girl you are talking to, barely gives a gently caress about you, get the gently caress out. It´s been three days and she doesn't still know what exactly you do for a living, your major interests, and when she asks, she is content to hear one line, like this:

#
W: "Wat u do for fun?"

M: "I watch movies a lot"

W: (Changes subject).
#;

Or

#;
W: Do you write?

M: Yeah... I try.

W: Cool. Today I went to the mall and... blah blah blah (changes subject).
#;

You get the drift. She doesn't even pretend to give a half of a poo poo about you. Get out. Get out. Now.

6) Very feministic.

7) Very aware of "social issues", very liberal about all the issues going on. Politically correct. Always in favor of drugs, lesbianism is beautiful, blue hair kind of girls.


Do I really have to explain? The type of girls that think that introducing you to a friend makes her an accessary of rape. That kind of girl.

Like... gently caress that type of girl. Seriously.


For now, those are it.

I´ll see how it goes in this post, and maybe I´ll post more about my ventures.

That makes me think of being younger & hanging out with anti-facist skinheads who hated how everyone confused them with neo-nazis even though they had Anti-Flag and DK logos and lyrics all over their jacket. People should listen the words!

I'm going to assume that nazi neo-folk selects for a lower quality of facist, and that not enough new recruits could pass the physical exam so they had to start accepting elves and neckbeards and furries off the fringes, although "the internet makes you stupid" is probably closer to the truth.

Black Metal is tough to police because when it's really good you can't always tell who the genuine murderous psychopaths are until they burn down a church or cannibalize their bass player or something. You know someone is eventually going to satanically murder-suicide, but not who because theres a rogues gallery of suspects.

Nearly all the founders of the black metal scene were/are fascists or knew people who were fascists. The whole thing's rotten from top to bottom, to the point that I consider someone being a huge fan of black metal a bit of a red flag when meeting people.

PLEASE ASK ABOUT MY 80,000 WORD WALLACE AND GROMIT SLASH FICTION. PLEASE.

I think it's kind of overreaching to conflate people's political beliefs with their taste in art and music. That's not to say the two don't overlap, it just seems a bit unnecessary when there are far more objectionable and obvious signifiers to look for if somebody's a fascist dickhead. Plenty of people read, write and enjoy cosmic horror, for instance, and as we all know the genre owes a great deal to the feverish racist paranoia of H.P. Lovecraft. Many of us read fantasy, which is heavily influenced by reactionaries like J.R.R. Tolkien, Robert E. Howard and C.S. Lewis. These genres can be appreciated and enjoyed as long as you're critical in your consumption of them.

The funniest thing about it is that they're forgetting that actual genocides reduce both the targeted group as a percentage of the total population as well as in absolute terms. As a percentage of world population, Swedes might be a smaller number than 1,000 years ago, but there are still millions more of them in absolute numbers than there were in the Middle Ages.
