so tl,dr; "they are headed in the right direction even if they suck," ok

2017-04-11 00:38:12 UTC  

I can even respect that

2017-04-11 00:38:12 UTC  

no, wrong

2017-04-11 00:38:19 UTC  

no, that isn't what I'm saying

2017-04-11 00:38:27 UTC  

well what do your numerical values mean

2017-04-11 00:38:36 UTC  

they may or may not be headed in the right direction

2017-04-11 00:38:44 UTC  

but limit the argument to their effectiveness

2017-04-11 00:38:47 UTC  

ability to change things

2017-04-11 00:38:56 UTC  

yes, your average Donald voter is not an alt right dude

2017-04-11 00:39:08 UTC  

are you saying they are good because at least there is now a non-leftist school of thought that is mainstream?

2017-04-11 00:39:16 UTC  

regardless of the problems within that school of thought?

2017-04-11 00:39:25 UTC  

but the alt right brought a lot of stuff to the fore that these Donald voters could look at and assess on their own terms

2017-04-11 00:39:36 UTC  

and it exerted a pressure on the old school conservative media

2017-04-11 00:39:48 UTC  

no I'm not saying that but that's pretty good too

2017-04-11 00:39:53 UTC  

that's all well and good

2017-04-11 00:39:58 UTC  

non-leftist mainstream school of thought: Christianity

2017-04-11 00:40:04 UTC  

Mormonism

2017-04-11 00:40:11 UTC  

but how does that address the fact that the alt right is doing the opposite of its stated goals, and is a flash mob preaching the virtues of hierarchy

2017-04-11 00:40:17 UTC  

it doesn't have any stated goals

2017-04-11 00:40:26 UTC  

it isn't a "thing", it's an anti-thing

2017-04-11 00:40:39 UTC  

even the hierarchy stuff, not everyone will agree with it

2017-04-11 00:40:40 UTC  

prozak has written tomes of paper on how anti-things are awful

2017-04-11 00:40:55 UTC  

one edge of the alt-right is literal sperg libertarians who are awaiting the singularity

2017-04-11 00:41:00 UTC  

Nick Land kind of people

2017-04-11 00:41:05 UTC  

they are not insignificant

2017-04-11 00:41:15 UTC  

yes, so most accurately the altright is not even altright, it is just antileft

2017-04-11 00:41:19 UTC  

whereas republicans are left lite

2017-04-11 00:41:21 UTC  

anti-things are not awful, or not-awful

2017-04-11 00:41:27 UTC  

there is no such thing in the prozakian philosophy per se

2017-04-11 00:41:41 UTC  

it's either effective or ineffective, leading to desired goals or not

2017-04-11 00:41:51 UTC  

that's right @Deleted User 57835c2c , that's absolutely right

2017-04-11 00:41:55 UTC  

alt right is anti left

2017-04-11 00:41:58 UTC  

republicans are left lite

2017-04-11 00:42:20 UTC  

what anti-ideologies are is unsustainable

2017-04-11 00:42:25 UTC  

because their impetus is the reaction

2017-04-11 00:42:27 UTC  

that is still very far removed from my goal both quantitatively and qualitatively

2017-04-11 00:42:40 UTC  

so neoreaction really was the more accurate term

2017-04-11 00:42:52 UTC  

yes, definitely

2017-04-11 00:43:09 UTC  

well, actually no

2017-04-11 00:43:21 UTC  

it's because the term reaction carries some load

2017-04-11 00:43:32 UTC  

I meant it in a very general way, reactionary to anything
