There is a reason unions came to power once. If a whole division quits over someone being fired it makes a statement.

You're never going to get the American right to behave in such a collectivist way.

I'm not sure.

That ain't happening man.

How many fucking candidates did they have again?

So what, jsut throw everything in the air and give it all up?

Let the left dominate everything?

No, I think there is a sense of unity among the right, but it needs to learn how to use it.

The left is always trying to tell itself to emphasize unity and complains it lacks unity itself.

No, but you're going to have to realize that the right is not the left. They are made up of people who think in fundamentally different ways. You're just trying to get the right to emulate the left and I'm pointing out they can't do so. It's against what makes them conservative.

I think you can rally people to a collective goal if the sitution is clear enough.

If the right became a mob of collectivist pod people shouting slogans and wearing identical t-shirts i wouldn't want to have anything to do with them.

"There's no libertarians or social conservatives in the academy" is going to attract two groups of people.

I'd rather act like insurgents.

Ok. So what do you plan to do?

I'm not going to discuss what I am doing.

Not in an open forum.

I like the idea of insurgents. But the habit seems to be to pretend that you'll take the management position in a company. And then you discover you can't just act unilaterally and nothing actually happens.

@Atkins well, I can't make you trust me. But if you want to talk, we can try to set up some kind of encrypted channel.

I might be wrong in how I think this could be played. But I feel very strongly that there is fundamentally no discussion of tactics among anyone other than the far left.

And the tactics discussion *needs* to happen or the far left will always dictate the norms of society.

PM me if you want to try and set something up.

sum good ole game theory would be a good idea XD get a bit of a stride for the right

although ppl on the right dont seem liek the kind to be willfully ignorant about game theory

its just not a part of common parlance

Honestly, in my experience alot of people on the right tend to be pretty apathetic to anything that doesn't get hits on Rush Limbaugh.

It depends alot on what kind of right you're talking about though. Not everyone is the same.

XD lol yeah very true lol even just in the US theres many kinds of right-wingers

Intersectionality was originally developed in the 80s precisely because far left activists struggled to keep people together.

then u look at international politics and yep

Libertarians are very flexible and can be rather bold. But they also tend to be little too fundamentalist in strategy and can't unify on anything.

Law and order conservatives want to fade into the background, let law enforcement solve everything and just watch football.

Already you can see the conflict.

XD yeah the whole authority thing

Rockefeller conservatives are important as they hold the resources but are completely flaky and bend under pressure easily.

They'll do whatever they can to get ahead.

yeah i mean gotta follow the green brick road so to speak

Classical liberals haven't settled into a form yet. But I'm guessing they'll be somewhere between the libertarians and conservatives.

especially when you already have that much money

I mean, they are literally conservatives because they don't want to pay taxes.

It's not exactly like they're complicated people.
