#160. Sundress Wars
Welcome to the NRP. We are curating the best of those extremely-online extremists known as the "New Right."
🧵Threads of the Week🧵
> “My very dear Sarah, the indications are very strong that the Sundress Wars will be upon us soon. Lest I should not be able to see you again, I feel impelled to write a few lines. Who would have thought that a tawdry yellow sundress could pit brother against brother? The pussy cartel has taken a stronghold in the capital and their competing dominance strategies have laid waste to the surrounding countryside. My cheap, unflattering uniform has been tattered to shreds by the thorny fauna. Would that I could return safely to you, Sarah, and see you in a cadmium yellow polyblend once again.
> Voodoo tells a tale of real Civil War derring do.
>
keeps you abreast of Bud Light’s ongoing redemption campaign.> Lord Miles went goblin-mode this weekend to investigate a Zimbabwe town’s goblin affliction, like some kind of mad lad Witcher.
> FischerKing reveals the symbiotic relationship between white libs and their houseless pets.
> Pax Work-from-homia is probably a weird blip that will precede an era of total time-to-lean-time-to-clean bio-surveillance.
🎥A/V of the Week🎥
NRP Cub Reporter Ace helped out this week with A/V and Reads. Thanks Ace!
> Fraser Payne premiered a short film about a sensitive young man who wants nothing more than to have blue eyes, and all we can say is…holy kino.
> Lomez agrees with Charles Haywood that the regime has been waning despite its chest beating. Watch him tell all with Benjamin Boyce.
> On the heels of their excellent episode about the Alt-Right,
, , and former co-host of What’s Left Benjamin Studebaker discuss the Alt-Right’s lefty counterparts, the Millennial Left. Generational discretion is advised. Oh, and Gio launched a news series, The Coal Report, for his loyal subscribers. Support this man, will ya?>
and Dimes from Blood Satellite discuss the business of politics.>
explains the plight of whites with Doug Wilson and Friends. Claremont alumni take another W.>
tells that the alt-right is so back… unless? His dissection of the original movement and where it has taken him warrants attention.>
and interview on how an energy shortage might usher in the Western decline he has warned us about.📰Reads of the Week📰
> Walt Bismarck offers a Machiavellian manual to those curious-minded readers who may be too goody-goody to rebel against a rapacious corporate America. You hate your fake email job, but what if you could have two or three of them, stacked on top of each other? Bismarck wants you to be liberated from this rat race and throw out the “Hitler levels of Adderall.”
> “Something is happening out there!’’ says Nigel Farage.
describes the end of the old left and the ushering in of a new neoliberal aesthetic. First came Deliveroo McDonald’s, then an imported workforce to serve them. Britain has been colonized, and Britbongs are starting to feel the pain.
>
declares that the time for revolution has passed. Instead, we should expect that for all the hard talk, the left has not adopted the will of their radical ancestors from the Weather Underground. In A. James Gregor’s Mussolini’s Intellectuals, the right had already been philosophizing their platform before the Italian became dictator. 2024 has no such precedent and our system can’t have regime change without “cultural, technical, and economic forces.”
> Roger Scruton was right.
writes that architecture remains a reference point for decline. Public spaces have been abandoned and who wants to maintain these things if people don’t understand their value? Powell emphasizes that the Silicon Valley standard of innovation doesn’t supersede our ancestor’s aesthetic achievements.
>
writes about the significance of the Starship test launch. His friend, Steve Stirling relates it to the Spanish and Portuguese caravels who had the daunting task of going into the great unknown with their own technological obstacles. In a time when the age of discovery has been reduced to power by force, the recent progress with SpaceX may be one of the few projects the Pentagon can’t mess up.
> That other third position has been vindicated.
writes that all the success in Korea, Japan, and Taiwan prove distributism’s viability. However, the dissidents who yearn for futurism may be their own worst enemy when it comes to finding economic theory for their politics. Regardless, the plight of technocratic excess needs older solutions to rescue those lost in digital captivity. Alongside discourse around cryptocurrency and AI, dissidents need sovereign platforms to maintain influence without being marginalized like those who completely opt-out of power altogether.
> Hart-Cellar defined the post-national identity and assured Americans those values from that bygone era were pretty malleable. With that in mind,
’s thesis falls into place. If zoomers remain a mixed-race demographic in America, their right-wing credentials will still be there. Therefore, Gen Z castizos may be the ubermench for right-leaning Americans, white and otherwise. It is an ironic tide change, yet one that might save the national identity. Don’t tell the wignats about it, tho.
>
reminds us that forced equality strengthens the wedge between the sexes. In academia, the gap between the sexes stands out as a result of the egalitarian standards held among the constituents. Societal peer pressure, in media or physical space, psyops men and women into segregated spaces. The less egalitarian the society is, the closer the sexes intertwine.
😬Cringe Corner😬
> Evola’s back on the menu, anon! Unherd found a way to dig into the 2017 Slate archives and rescue ideas that even journos don’t care about. A daunting attempt to make esotericism relevant again. Folks, the far-right pagan was so hecking mad about nihilism that he took alt-right twitter down the eastern mysticism rabbit hole. We never read all that stuff, but it reminds us that we made anti-nazi fascism look scary tho 😔👉🏻👈🏻.

Lol JMG. He's been saying the oil has run out almost my entire life. Peak Oil = RW Climate Change.
It's amusing to me how hard Unherd and Compact work to remain irrelevant.
"What's this? Articles on vaccine deaths? Ukraine is losing the war? Joe Biden is senile and his son is a convicted felon? Get this bullshit out of here! Get me a 3000 word essay on experimental French cinema! Get me a piece on the five most obscure feminist writers of the 20th Century! You'd better get Eminem relevant again and get him relevant NOW!"
