I actually was a Bernie supporter until he lost the primary
I also wasn't big into politics
@StevePines -WA I was the same way, once bernie was out I was almost immediately a big Trump guy
If for no other reason than I hated Hillary
@Sam Anderson I was more of a far left ethonationalist, so I'm probably not the best person to ask tbh
Oops
Deleted the wrong thing
@Logan thank you for addressing this. Very glad we have your help here modding!
I wasn't a trump supporter until he won
Sorry @Logan
@NateDahl76 no problemo amigo
Then in about a year I went from center left to far right, it was a ride and a half
Once you notice certain things you can't ignore them
Side project: reclaim Spanish and "hispanic" for the descendants of the historic Celtiberians and Visigoths.
Conversos not invited.
I took my anger for Congress out at the gym
Had a really productive workout
Well currently am*
@Dylan - NY I'm a former leftie!
if indeed it was one final thing
a few things
being told over and over how I have to apologize for white privilege, when I've had a hard life
trump winning
the left name-calling people and saying their ideas were wrong, so I decided to just watch their stuff and judge for myself
but if it was one moment, it was seeing Jared Taylor in a round table on immigration, and thinking who is that well-spoken, intelligent man? and I saw he was a "white nationalist" when I looked him up, and debated with myself about whether to watch him but decided to go ahead
@apronandlace that's a pretty good story of getting off the fence.
Didn't you want to do a podcast about that @Virgil ?
taylor is based yep
in terms of video content and speaking hes basically unmatched imo
Yeah, Taylor got me to consider things I wouldn't have gone for (it took me a while to accept IQ differences and freedom of association) because his content is so high-quality (lots of facts, intelligence, respect for anyone he's debating or being interviewed by)
What do you think is the best way to get through to the other half of whites?
Do we talk affirmative action and white privlidge or go an economic route on outsourcing and immigration?
I think a good strategy is making white advocacy seem like the more virtuous choice. It seems like a common theme in history that white people get very motivated when they think a cause is just.
like, shaming white people and telling them they're unvirtuous works very well against us (e.g., Gandhi's strategy against Britain, the left now)
and we have historically gotten very motivated to do things like abolish slavery, bring civilzation to other continents, etc.
the left is already framing this as a matter of good vs. evil
so unless we are definitely on the side of good, hopefully more than the left, we seem like the evil side
I think we should use a different word than genocide, but use the 2020 census as an argument for self preservation?
That is the foundation of law.
yeah
