Seriously, the alt-right nazis don't actually get boners over building churches and making people more Christian, do they? I was under the impression that the religion aspect was rather minor in those circles.

Fashwave is pretty bad at conveying fascism since its indifferentiable from apolitical vapourwave except for the song/artist titles, You guys comparing this to triumph of the will are illiterate cucks

most of the internet nazis are atheists, yeah.

honestly, though, i don't really think it's worth splitting hairs over; the overarching message of the video is pretty clear, and in-line with the whole alt-right narrative -- it covers SJWs, Jews, White Genocide, etc.

The main thing that video did is remind me of how homoerotic and fascist 80s action movies were.

the real nazis werent even christians either. they tolerated certain branches of christianity based on those branches' loyalty to the regime while actively persecuting others (most notably the jehovah's witnesses and christian scientists). nazi party officials were largely atheists or just didn't give a poo poo. then of couse you also had the nazis into the esoteric paganism stuff.

i mean nazism as an ideology is a religion in itself complete with its own mythologization of the german "aryan" people that takes a lot from native pre-christianization germanic paganism and odinism. of course much of this is a bastardized retelling of those mythologies. they believed so strongly in their own made up origin stories that they sent archeologists around lookinh for evidence of it.

Facism doesn't want to change things, it wants to accumulate as much power as possible and that involves being as palatable as possible to the volk at large.

Dissapointing episode. It's weird unanimity among all hosts and guests. Unite the Right was sad postmodernist farce. I'm sorry but I can't see fascists ascendance or fascsm on the rise in Charlottsville protests. It's not the first time Antifa or anti-racists protesters seeked confrontation with Alt-right. It's again not the right context. Alt-righters didn't ascend on black neighborhood yelling and screaming racists slogans. They assembled in public space near statue and they got permit for that. If there were no antifa protesters, then Unite the Right assembly would have been forgotten by now. I'm afraid this hysteria over fascists on the rise plays into hands of those (in center and on cultural the left) who were calling for unity against Trump. So now this anti-racism gonna be weapon to get Trump. And main goal of all leftists and liberals would be oust Trump because fascists on the rise. I think it's all great distraction.

@user-186806394: Nagle, actually, was right. Identity politics and call out culture did cause or contribute to backlash from all sides. People are throwing word fascism so loosely these days it lost its meaning. Why was there so much fuss about Unite the Right protest? It was protest against removal of monument. It wasn't fascist ascendance. Yes, many people from protest were reactionary nihilists and ethno-nationalists but they have the right to protest as well. Now any person on the Left who is not willing to call Charlottsville a fascsist on the rise gonna be condemned or silenced and ignored. That's whole hysteria is great distraction for liberals and pseudo-lefties who wanted unity against Trump. Now they get it,

The part of his set where he attacks teen girls for wanting the hpv vaccine because they're excited to "gently caress immigrants" genuinely raised my brow, even knowing who he became. At least he dropped that weight.

Back in 1940, Dorothy Thompson wrote a piece for Harper's Magazine entitled "Who Goes Nazi?" It's delightfully well written and boils down to her core thesis that Nazism appeals to four broad sections of western society: those disaffected by the inability of liberal democracy to live up to its meritocratic promises, resentful losers with overblown opinions of their own abilities, craven amoral opportunists, and psychopaths.

So why did they copy Jacobin then?

quote:

Mr. G is a very intellectual young man who was an infant prodigy. He has been concerned with general ideas since the age of ten and has one of those minds that can scintillatingly rationalize everything. I have known him for ten years and in that time have heard him enthusiastically explain Marx, social credit, technocracy, Keynesian economics, Chestertonian distributism, and everything else one can imagine. Mr. G will never be a Nazi, because he will never be anything. His brain operates quite apart from the rest of his apparatus. He will certainly be able, however, fully to explain and apologize for Nazism if it ever comes along. But Mr. G is always a “deviationist.” When he played with communism he was a Trotskyist; when he talked of Keynes it was to suggest improvement; Chesterton’s economic ideas were all right but he was too bound to Catholic philosophy. So we may be sure that Mr. G would be a Nazi with purse-lipped qualifications. He would certainly be purged.
