#167. Powerpoint, Lexapro, Planned Parenthood, Athleta, eat hot chip and lie
Welcome to the NRP. We are curating the best of those extremely-online extremists known as the "New Right."
🧵Threads of the Week
> You may know Vandie from his cowboys ‘n indians explainers, but this week he explains the tragic confluence of anti-white sentiment and bureaucratic interests that keeps Hawaii, one of the coolest places in the world, down.
> Jew for Jesus
pulled an episode of his podcast featuring guests Woe and Corey Mahler from after seeing some of their spicier Telegram posts. Is Will just a grifter who easily cucked to social pressures? Or is he grappling in good faith with the limits of personal endorsement? Expect to see more of this sort of boundary setting among content creators at the fringes of acceptable discourse.> You had us at “Carl Jung on wiggers.”
> Your girl isn’t a freak in the sheets? Time to hit her with that Schopenhauer stare.
> Anon drops a megaton nuke on the implication that Africa is oppressed by colonial powers.
>
talked her fellow pro-lifers off the ledge.> Feminists love to see empowered women taking a stand, unless it’s for whatever they don’t like.
> You must reject the siren song of the misanthropic balding alt-comedian.
🕵️♂️Dudley of the Week🕵️♂️
> Your man Dudley had a big week over on Twitter, first with a post so based they had to limit its visibility.
> And then, an even more powerful banger: The elder millennials may be too far gone, but we are going to save Zoomer girlbosses whether they like it or not. The first step is to force them to face a few hard truths.
> And just under the wire, Dud squeaked in this one about Jordan Peterson’s daughter getting the Bogdanoff Gigachad procedure.
🎥A/V of the Week🎥
NRP Cub Reporter Ace helped out this week with A/V and Reads. Thanks Ace!
> Natcon 4 happened. Vivek outlined his vision for “national libertarianism,” JD Vance snuck in a sick burn. Nation-building took a few lumps, as did the neoliberals. And Christian nationalism took center stage, with Al Mohler and Doug Wilson setting aside doctrinal differences to “maximize” the Christian commitments of the state.
>
talks to Blaze editor Matthew Peterson, about how conservative media has transcended boomer rhetoric and audience capture.>
and discuss the dilemma between tolerance towards homosexuality and its memeable excesses.> The NYT summarizes
’s “luxury beliefs” concept in a very normie-palatable way.>
and John Cinder discuss why fiction matters — it isn’t so fictional after all.>
remind us that in a world of Nietzschean vitalists, the Chesterton approach to life may have the best ROI.> Mayor Pete: Not gay?
📰Reads of the Week📰
>
has returned to discuss her POV on the case she recently lost (technically, they both lost). Unhinged critics accusing post-leftists of being closet Nazis may even find something to sympathize with here, if they search their hearts. Let Nina explain how her anon account became a matter of national concern.> The American road trip may be one of the last ways to connect with the old world. A lot can be shared on trips that turn into hikes, potentially running into would-be frens. It’s also ideal to escape the city and its many blackpills.
reminds us that filling the car up with food and good memories is cost-efficient and cozy.> America’s international project has reached a ceiling.
describes the postmodern landscape of WW3. It’s not men on a battlefield. It’s the Huxley-esque strategy of lulling the population into soft totalitarianism. NATO may cause an era of Napoleon-style populism to save the west from itself.>
describes how rationalism reduced the world to mechanical philosophy. Whereas the ancient world incentivized natural and religious values, modernism has redefined humans as a scientific man. It goes beyond politics, governments adopt the same limited horizons to throw money and people at.> As ethnonationalism becomes popular, Aidan Wright writes that it’s important to find a parallel outside the states. Simon Bolívar was a man who outflanked diversity with a national identity. It’s easier to understand the national struggle in Vietnam or Brazil, however, Americans can’t ignore the balkanization at home.
> Republicans may be satisfied with the debate, yet there’s a lot that stands between Trump and the white house.
at reminds the right that their focus on media stunts and lack of focus on electoral politics has kept them from reaping rewards in Congress. Don’t expect Biden to faceplant on camera, it’s going to take Machiavellian overcoming of the deep state to wrench control away from establishment gatekeepers.>
tells the story of American bureaucratic expansion with a disturbing parallel from the Twilight Zone. Like the boy in the story, bureaucratic urges go beyond reason and pragmatism. Without adults in the room, it’s up to the citizens to step outside the blob’s influence.>
reports on the grim outcome of illegal immigration. Despite laws on the books, people find themselves desensitized to the most insane crimes. Parallels with Cormac McCarthy’s description of changing attitudes toward crime puts the vulgar examples in perspective.> South Africa has a new DA cabinet member and it’s all very gay. As populism spreads across the Europe, crime and immigration have steered the citizens towards the right.
reminds us that the parliamentary system has made those concerns illegal.🐦Tweets of the Week🐦
There you have it, folks. As always, we are publishing All the Shit that’s Fit to Poast, twice a week. Follow us on Twitter to see our take on who posted the top thread, read and tweet, along with lots of other banter and hijinks between issues that you won’t see on Substack.
Camp Brave Trails is what my personal hell would look like
This sucks, man. I can’t change how I was raised and I repudiate the existence of the “Judaism” I was raised with. I’m grappling in good faith with my disagreement with the worldview of the men that I had on my show. Had I read those posts—which transcended “spicy”—I wouldn’t have had them on. That is allowed. For the same reason if I had a Christian on who I later found endorsed late-term abortion I’d do the same.
