You also see weird patterns when looking at these social groups. Of course the people who become "hubs" are seeking out people with like-minded views; but other times you'll see little clusters of friends that all seemed to radicalize together but only connect to the regional hub. Or there's a husband-and-wife couple that is full Nazi but is pretty socially isolated like a pair of asteroids way out on the edge of the system. Then you run into stuff like this:   -- https://twitter.com/willsommer/status/916052807710658561 I wouldn't be surprised if they did it. The extreme right hates Milo now. But I'm not sure this excuse is gonna fly when you had spent all that time and effort traveling to Dallas to party with 20 Nazis.

Bushiz posted:has the world always been this weird? Is The Zone something we, like, just noticed we had always been in or are things actively getting weirder. All these broken shitheads can find one another much more easily. Milo wouldn't have flown in the 80s, even if he were straight, because he wouldn't have had an audience. The Mercers have enough money that taking a chance on the next big conservative wunderkind is pocket change.

Montasque posted:True fascism is way too much work, and Europe is actually way more racist than America could ever hope to be. Yeah, living abroad I realized that America, for all of its racism, shockingly, has a pretty advanced dialogue around race in comparison to other countries. We're among the least worst, which honestly should scare folks since it means the racists outnumber the nonracists by a large margin.

Dreddout posted:I really don't think the alt-right is gonna go away, because it's predicated on Capitalism pulling up the ladder on a group of people who until now have largely got everything they were promised by their society. I was actually going to write a little more on this point, but I thought it was getting a little long. Basically, the relative purity of the political philosophy of the alt-right can't handle the reality of politics in a social democracy. By the past, I mean adopting political theories and moral philosophies from an earlier time, absent of any tangible policy. So the political ideas of Locke, Mills, and early liberalism, and Kantian and libertarian ethics. By comparison, the present is the Republican party. A shambling bloated corpse of political positions, compromises, and contradictions. This is due to a process of evolution out of necessity, in order to adapt to a changing political climate. The alt-right is a political movement built on people who base their philosophy on wikipedia articles, and who buy into the myth of the American Dream and a simpler time that was more ideologically pure. It doesn't have any of the modern baggage of the Republican Party because none of that poo poo can be succinctly explained in a wiki article or argued on a forum. That is the disconnect the alt-right has with modern politics. The alt-right isn't going to become the right because it means throwing out large portions of what the right has built up over the last 150 years without a solid understanding of what replaces it. I agree with the alt-right being a breakaway from Conservatism (the present), and that you can't go back. But what I differ on is how it will play out. I don't think the movement will ever be popular enough to be a whole cloth replacement for Conservatism. The Republican Party will evolve and appropriate the bits of the alt-right that are beneficial to them, and compatible with the Republican identity. It is a lot easier to convince a party to evolve and make broad strokes while maintaining the original identity, then it is to change identities. You can sell the Democrats on standing for Medicare for all, or a $15 minimum wage. You can't sell the Republicans becoming more like alt-right, or worse yet voting for a new party. From what I can gather, they don't have ideas coherent enough to form a party platform. How do you translate philosophy into policy? 'Personal liberty must never be curtailed' or 'American society should transform into a white ethnostate' aren't things you can legislate without detail. They can probably agree on a few things like repealing Title IX, but it's the sort of stuff the Republican Party can appropriate without becoming alt-right. They can't get to the present without going through and making the same compromises and evolution as any other political party. A process that will in all likelihood fracture the movement.

He's a Nazi because it's edgy and dangerous and forbidden and taboo. He'll stay with that image until he either figures out a different one he can morph into in an effort to squeeze a couple of bucks out of some suckers, or he gets stabbed in the back by those who aren't play Nazis who aren't putting up with his poo poo.

Daniel Penny in January 2017:quote:Despite the fact that Anglin states that the alt-right repudiates gays, Milo’s use of his homosexuality nonetheless works along the lines of the trollish, mimetic logic that Anglin lays out. His alt-right fans flock to his events not in spite of his sometimes outrageous appearance, statements, and flaming sexuality, but rather because of them. Like the Emcee in Cabaret, performing his deviance to the delight of a Nazi audience, Milo’s carnivalesque presence within the sphere of the alt-right is exciting and transgressive, signaling the inversion of the established order. In another context, Milo’s personal identity could be cause for his audience to assault him, yet on the stage, making fun of the alt-right’s enemies, Milo’s contradictions are permitted and celebrated as “edgy.” Even the commenters on Breitbart seem to recognize the strategic benefits of Milo’s contradictory persona.

That Buzzfeed article was incredible and kind of a mindfuck in conjunction with the "secret agent" article earlier. I really don't think anyone can argue that Milo is "just" a provocateur now - that is completely discredited. His whole job is to provide that plausible deniability - regardless of whether his personal motives are purely opportunistic or not. After all, there were plenty of opportunistic Nazis who went along with it to get rich and powerful (and they were shot like all the rest - except for the ones the West wanted to use to kill Communists anyway).
