Angry Tweet that I deleted:
So I started listening to @JoshuaCitarella’s Doomscroll Podcast. I noticed that all of the episodes had a laser focus on containing people like me – racist extremists.
I would say that the people interviewed in these episodes are clearly gifted, but none of them seem to have any idea what our problem is.
The far right is very disengaged from economics. So clearly our economic opportunities are not any kind of motivating factor in our decision to abandon liberal society. They may influence us in the sense that we have nothing to lose, but they aren’t the reason why we feel this way.
We just hate liberals. We don’t want to share a society with them. Liberals, especially activist liberals, are anti-normative people who hate everything that is stable and natural. (See the graph).
Improving our economic opportunities won’t make us go away. A quarter of a million British girls have been raped, and this is very personal. We want all of the people who allowed this to happen to be put in jail.
There is no reason to have empathy for people who hate you. This is a narcissistic relationship, and Europeans deserve better than this. We don’t care if you think we’re not a “real” people, we don’t even view YOU as fully formed individuals. I don’t want to be rude, but the very way that you look, talk, dress, present, etc is unsettling. There is something deeply disturbing about your very appearance; I get uncomfortable looking at the art of Andy Rementer or Michael DeForge. I’m sorry, but we just don’t like your type. You’re just kind of creepy people, and this antipathy we have is more ingrained than you could ever imagine. You are dysgenic, and from our perspective, that must be the source of the anti-normative sentiment.
I generalize, but you are just “weird” and you instinctively identify with the outgroup. The reason why so many of you feel for the sufferings of freaks is because you yourselves can relate. So fundamentally you are pro-outgroup, and thus anti-normal. You elevate outgroups while neglecting or even subverting the ingroup.
Obviously, I am not a normal person either. I have been discriminated against for being autistic my entire life. The difference is that I don’t have anti-normative sentiments, and I don’t care about aspie rights or aspie tolerance or anything like that. Not everything is about me. I identify with the in-group, who are, for all their faults, the good and sensible people.
Real tolerance starts with yourself. If you’re a freak and you pretend to be a white-presenting heteronormative “equal,” then you are fake, you are a manipulator. I accept myself for being less competent, less attractive, less graceful, and less sexually moral. I am inferior, or below average in many highly important respects.
Accepting yourself doesn’t translate to political power. Inferior groups do not get the time of day. But we have seen what happens when inferior groups are passed off as upstanding citizens: the result is insanity. This is an insane society, and we just want it to be sane. Not fair, not inspiring or futuristic or even wealthy – just sane. Forget capitalism – I agree with you about capitalism. The texture of life is garbage. It is so removed from nature / normal that nobody even wants to go outside or socialize. Leftists, oddly enough, have socially conservative grievances – concepts like alienated labor, the third place, car culture, the nuclear family, etc – these are socially conservative issues. So obviously they are detecting this issue. They just can’t accept that “progress” has consequences, and that these problems go far beyond economics.
You are deracinating society and making it crazy. Human health and happiness is based in a wide variety of sensitive routines. Disturb these routines and you get side effects. Nature =/= good, because “good” is an opinion, but if you disturb natural modes of organization, do not be shocked when people get angry. If you mess with hornets, they will sting you. “Nazis” are not ‘victims’ of late-stage capitalism, they are just the DRONES. You are messing up our nest, and we want you to go away.
