    https://voxday.blogspot.com/2016/08/what-alt-right-is.html?m=1TL;DR: The Alt Right is a Western ideology that believes in science, history, reality, and the right of a genetic nation to exist and govern itself in its own interests.

    CURT’S TAKE:

    ———

    SELF DETERMINATION (SOVEREIGNTY):

    Kin, Excellence, Eugenics, Nationalism (Europe, east asia),

    – vs –

    OTHER DETERMINATION (COLLECTIVISM):

    Corporate, Quantity, Dysgenic, Universalism (india, brazil, levant)

    ———

    In the interest of developing a core Alternative Right philosophy upon which others can build.

    The Alt Right is of the political right in both the American and the European sense of the term. Socialists are not Alt Right. Progressives are not Alt Right. Liberals are not Alt Right. Communists, Marxists, Marxians, cultural Marxists, and neocons are not Alt Right. National Socialists are not Alt Right.

    The Alt Right is an ALTERNATIVE to the mainstream conservative movement in the USA that is nominally encapsulated by Russel Kirk’s 10 Conservative Principles, but in reality has devolved towards progressivism. It is also an alternative to libertarianism.

    The Alt Right is not a defensive attitude and rejects the concept of noble and principled defeat. It is a forward-thinking philosophy of offense, in every sense of that term. The Alt Right believes in victory through persistence and remaining in harmony with science, reality, cultural tradition, and the lessons of history.

    The Alt Right believes Western civilization is the pinnacle of human achievement and supports its three foundational pillars: Christianity, the European nations, and the Graeco-Roman legacy.

    The Alt Right is openly and avowedly nationalist. It supports all nationalisms and the right of all nations to exist, homogeneous and unadulterated by foreign invasion and immigration.

    The Alt Right is anti-globalist. It opposes all groups who work for globalist ideals or globalist objectives.

    The Alt Right is anti-equalitarian. It rejects the idea of equality for the same reason it rejects the ideas of unicorns and leprechauns, noting that human equality does not exist in any observable scientific, legal, material, intellectual, sexual, or spiritual form.

    The Alt Right is scientodific. It presumptively accepts the current conclusions of the scientific method (scientody), while understanding a) these conclusions are liable to future revision, b) that scientistry is susceptible to corruption, and c) that the so-called scientific consensus is not based on scientody, but democracy, and is therefore intrinsically unscientific.

    The Alt Right believes identity > culture > politics.

    The Alt Right is opposed to the rule or domination of any native ethnic group by another, particularly in the sovereign homelands of the dominated peoples. The Alt Right is opposed to any non-native ethnic group obtaining excessive influence in any society through nepotism, tribalism, or any other means.

    The Alt Right understands that diversity + proximity = war.

    The Alt Right doesn’t care what you think of it.

    The Alt Right rejects international free trade and the free movement of peoples that free trade requires. The benefits of intranational free trade is not evidence for the benefits of international free trade.

    The Alt Right believes we must secure the existence of white people and a future for white children.

    The Alt Right does not believe in the general supremacy of any race, nation, people, or sub-species. Every race, nation, people, and human sub-species has its own unique strengths and weaknesses, and possesses the sovereign right to dwell unmolested in the native culture it prefers.

    The Alt Right is a philosophy that values peace among the various nations of the world and opposes wars to impose the values of one nation upon another as well as efforts to exterminate individual nations through war, genocide, immigration, or genetic assimilation.

    I mean, the cosmopolitan counter-revolution against science is ending right? Fascism is gradually taking hold. Nationalism gradually taking hold. Marx, Freud, Boas and the Postmoderns falsified, and Dawin, Spencer, and Nietzsche were right.

  • No Cosmopolitans, This Time Wont Be Different.

    It’s (((Their))) whole counter-reaction against the scientific revolution. I use key figures to show a trend, (Boas, Marx, Freud, Cantor, Mises, Frankfurt school, Rand/Rothbard, the SPLU/ACLU but the number of them resisting modernity is nearly all of them. They want cosmopolitanism (pastoralism) as do women, where they are not responsible for territorial commons. But if we look at where that’s been tried (levant) it requires oppressive empires, expands tribalism, and generates low trust conditions, and poverty. I’m not sure, since (((they))) have, and cosmopolitanism has, failed everywhere else, why they think ‘this time will be different’ . It wont. Rousseau and the french start the trend that evolved into the technique we call postmodernism. Kant expands it. Marx expands it, and when marxism fails the french then invent postmodernism, and (((they))) adopt it as well. The french are deeply feminine, and anti-aristocracy. (((They))) are deeply feminine and anti-aristocracy. We are deeply masculine and deeply pro aristocracy. And it’s pretty easy to see that the effeminate prosper under our ‘protections’ but that they will take it too far into undermining us with the privileges we give them with aristocracy (markets in everything).

  • There Is No Reason We Must Behave as Pre-Literate Pre-Scientific Pedlars of Nonsense

    If you were to read just Fukuyama’s Trust and his two books on Political Order you might have a better understanding of why the east held out longer than the rest. ANd it is pretty simple. If you hold a toll bridge on the only trade route from the eastern to the western mediterranean, and can hire others navies to help you (Venice) and can hire mercenaries (vikings as well as others) and can breed your own custom armies, you can hold out despite the fact that you have a low trust people who you cannot organize or modernize – particularly where all the wealth and cheap population is on your side of the bridge. The fact is that they couldn’t hold out. That they didn’t. That they held out longer because the trade route was until the 19th century, the most valuable on earth. And they needed all of that wealth to compensate for their failure to form chinese levels of bureaucracy or western levels of militia. But while they lost, they did fail. yes they probably failed because of plague, just as the entire empire fell disproportionately due to plagues. But then end result was an inability to govern the poorer peoples. Evidence is evidence and progress all but ceased under christianity, and all but exploded with the scientific revolution and scientific enlightenment, literacy, and the closure of the monasteries. There is a reason the catholic countries are poorer, have higher corruption, and the protestant countries the opposite. There is a reason why the nordic peoples rescued us from the church’s ignorance. And there is a reason why those who were shortest under church administration are more prosperous. Evidence is evidence. is evidence. Data is data is data. Just because a value is non zero doesn’t mean it is equal to a value Why did we have explosive growth in knowledge from the recovery of the bronze age collapse in 500bc to the abrahamic collapse in 300ad? Why did we have explosive expansion after the abrahamic collapse, There is nothing good in christianity that was not there before it. and everything bad in christianity was intentionally added to it. We cannot be free of the lies of the marxists and postmodernists without reforming our religion from a supernatural to a natural one. Christianity is reducible first, to the extension of kinship love to non kin – which is the optimum game strategy for cooperation – and second to the requirement for individual service (in other words, doing that charity yourself). Everything else is just nonsense. We have a full history of people who are saints thru service, generals thru service, thinkers in the service of all, and even the occasional business person thru service – although I don’t think much of them. Mass consists of a history lesson, a commentary on current events,an oath, and a feast. THere is no reason that the history lesson, commentary, oath, and feast cannot be (again) reformed so that we refer to literary analogy for the purpose of wisdom rather than supernatural authority for the purpose of obedience. All groups need a ‘cult’ but it turns out that the best cult is ancestor worship, and the best form of mindfulness is self authoring (stoicism), and the best form of political teaching is forgiveness. There is no reason we must behave as pre-literate pre-scientific pedlars of nonsense churches that continuously decline, rather than to modernize the church so that the propaganda of the abrahamists is removed, and replaced with our traditional (germanic) love of nature, and of man.

    —“We didn’t have better generals than the Germans. We didn’t have better NCO’s than the Germans either… What we did have was the fact that we had broken the Nazi code. After that, knowing what the great German generals were going to do next made our generals’ decisions rather easy. We knew when and where the German convoys were going to be, and proceeded to sink them. For contrast, look at the Battle of the Bulge…. Late 1944, Germany was lost….but maintaining radio silence and thereby not giving away their plan, they managed to launch a massive counterattack against the Allies in the Ardennes. It nearly worked, except that the German tanks ran out of fuel. Without the advantage of deciphered German messages, our generals were no match against the German High Command. Over in the Pacific, the battle of Midway wasn’t won by superior US strategy from our Admirals. It was won by breaking the Japanese code and realizing the next attack would be on the tiny island of Midway. Without that advantage, that battle would probably have been lost. Sure our soldiers still had to fight the battles and win, but it helps to be on top of the hill shooting down at your enemy rather than the other way around. So the foreknowledge of knowing where to be and when to be there, was instrumental in many an Allied victory.”—

    2 – As a consequence, parables, analogies, fictionalisms and ‘ways of thinking’ not yet operationalized, and therefore not yet scientific, must bear the cost of more disciplined efforts. Else the functionalists who created the last dark age and threaten another will continue.

    @curtdoolittle @pavelkuchar @FerlitoCarmelo Austrian economics is much more vibrant and varied within the scientific community that you are recognizing Curt. I believe this is because you are looking at it through a certain window, a window I would argue is the least productive of plausible readings of a tradition.
