interesting how this guy is notorious for going from town to town assaulting people keeps out of jail apparently and has the police escorting him on his little ventures, but just being near a window that was broken will see you detained for a year as they try to ring you up for 20+ years in jail

Keep an eye out for "lefties" who evince a hatred of weakness and deviation (and especially both, which is what 90% of hate for "tumblr gender liberalism" etc is) and you'll find plenty of people who will buddy up to right-wingers in general and fash in particular because they're "funny" or "misunderstood"

this is what made me immediately skeptical of nagle's poo poo back when I first skimmed the book after only being exposed to the poo poo that was about nazis from other people on the internet

like the tumblr people were definitely just as cliquish as the gestating 4chan nazis ten years ago, but to equate them in terms of potential harm because they're equally tribal is an abject failure of qualitative analysis

The main thing was that the tumblr people were the only frame of reference they had for anything further left than Obama.

Any "the leftists made me do it!" excuse or "explanation" for nazis is simple projection. They saw someone reject things that their status-quo addled brains took for granted and had lovely opinions about anyway and then made a whole subculture about it. They were uncomfortable and decided to double down to eliminate that discomfort without realizing that the nazi was inside of them the whole time

Agreed to a certain extent. I think the problems with the woker-than-thou stuff are more inward than outward. The worst perpetrators are so focused on gaining social capital within the boundaries of their social circle of woke people that it makes the space less accessible and can potentially push people out, meaning that no larger movement can be formed, only a smaller and smaller clique

First crusade pretty much only succeeds due to Fatamids thinking the Crusaders were still under Roman control, and they left Jerusalem largely undefended.. I love the second crusade, destroy the only Muslim ally of the crusader state, Fourth is, lets destroy the Roman Empire.

I feel you could probably sum up any good points the book had with 'Alienated young men (and others) with disinterested parents, unrestricted internet access as their primary form of socialisation, being completely ignored/written off by every political movement except the far right and having little to no investment in society outside of escapism is a recipe for disaster'.

I think it also had 'If you don't initiate young men into the tribe, they'll come back later and burn down the village' or something along those lines.

Add in a ton of dashed expectations/entitlement. Most young white guys who were smart and privileged enough to coast through high school thought they must be hot poo poo and everything would work out in their favor. When that didn't happen they needed someone to blame.
