The failure of the White Nationalism
The Alt Right or White Nationalism 2.0 has essentially recapitulated the failure mode of libertarianism. This isn't really a surprise as the founders of the alt right were people like Richard Spencer and TRS, all of whom came directly from libertarian and the membership of WN is the same exact demographic that showed up for libertarian.
Like libertarian, white nationalism has failed to create an ideology with popular appeal and instead has created a boutique larp ideology.
Like libertarian, white nationalism has failed to contest real political spaces and has instead constructed sealed-off echo chambers for the larp ideology.
Like libertarian, white nationalism has developed a political culture that hates real politics and automatically resents anyone who does real politics.
Like libertarian, white nationalism completely failed to develop a political practice to bring its policies into power. Politics is what politics are about.
Like libertarian, white nationalism is a socially retarded sausage party with a male incel dominated culture that is completely repellent to the participation of women.
The Bush years of Republican neocon politics were the perfect opportunity for libertarian to become the opposition ideology by opposing the imperialist wars and the police state, an opportunity it squandered. Instead it was the Obama left that prospered from the Bush years. Libertarian could not even defeat a hated rino like Mitt Romney in the Republican primary.
The Trump years were a similar opportunity for the alt right to become the ideology of the Trump movement, an opportunity that was squandered in favor of becoming a deviant internet subculture instead. What is left of Trumpism is now going to fall into the hands of Bush style neocons like DeSantis. All the Trump boomers will now be turned into the defenders of the very people and policies that destroyed their country.
The mass economic crisis of the libertarian years was a crisis driven by deliberate de-industrialization, mass illegal immigration and the systematic destruction of the American middle class by corporate capitalism. As libertarian conceived itself as the ultimate defender of capitalism and was actually in favor of the very "free trade" policies that were causing the crisis, naturally it couldn't fight them effectively.
The Trump years and Trump politics were a direct product of the destruction of American prosperity by international capitalism. So instead of focusing on its natural issues like immigration and populist economics, the alt right specialized in being mentally ill about Jews and obsessing over the Holocaust. Normal people living in the economic crisis don't want to hear about WW2 and the politics of another country from 90 years ago. Big surprise...
White nationalism lost its position as the right-wing opposition when it was first in line to get gaslit during the COVID psyop. While the psyop was being deployed, white nationalist thought leaders (like TRS and FTN) were super-spreaders of the Bat Flu hysteria. That boomerang came right back to smack WN in the face once it was beyond obvious who was benefiting from the mass hysteria. The psyop worked on white nationalists because they found the fantasy that all the Chinese would die so irresistible, which shows what kind of subhumans they are.
The real absolute failure of white nationalism came with the BLM riots. When the woke left started openly expressing exterminationist hatred of white people and engaging in mass violence and burning down American cities, this should have been the perfect opportunity for white nationalism to emerge from the basement and become a real political force. Instead that possibility was again squandered and instead grifters like Steve Bannon and crybaby twerps like Jordan Peterson are the real beneficiaries of anti-woke politics.
Why did that happen? Shouldn't white nationalism have been perfectly prepared to oppose BLM politics? Mainly it happened because by the time BLM was unleashed the wignat subculture has developed such a menacing psychotic hatred of normal Republicans (and people in general) that it was completely unable to communicate with them, much less organize them for political action. Such are the end results of the anime hitler fan club.
