it's good to hold your enemy to their own standard
the problem with DR3 is that it legitimizes the concept of "racism"
and it frames politics as something that is supposed to be inherently beneficial to people of color
the argument you mentioned is actually smart
It's a tough balance because often we just end up seeing conservatives reinforcing every anti-white leftist standard
As much as I love traditional America, the less American influence a country has in the modern day, the better. American cultural imperialism has wrecked Europe and imposed cultural Marxism
@The Eternal Anglo That's a good point. It's a massive whitepill that Poland used to be the most pro-immigration country
The Iron Curtain had the opposite effect it was alleged to.
In some ways, the Iron Curtain protected Eastern Europe from that. In East Germany, some polls have AfD in first. I'm be no means defending communism of course. Some countries like Italy achieved similar effects without it.
Italy until recently made it nearly impossible to open a McDonalds for example. France also tried to promote French language culture. Obviously it has gone down a bad road, but it's also the birthplace of the New Right
>nearly impossible to open a McDonalds
that’s awesome
Jared Taylor told me that communism may have been a blessing in disguise for Eastern Europe
also someone may have already said this, but PiS (Polish nationalist party) is most popular in Eastern Poland
the part less influenced by Germany
That's correct
The influence has spread though
maybe we should discuss this more deeply on the Slav server
@Jacob indeed, we must learn to harness that power
Polish elections still follow the 1914 Germany Russia border. PiS can now win in the former German parts, but remains stronger in the East. That could have more to do with the differing systems of collectivization and the fact that many Poles in what used to be Germany were moved there from what's now Belarus after WW2
comparing former imperial/colonial borders and present-day voting patterns is an interesting exercise
you find a correlation in many countries
Appendix A: a list of said countries
good call @Nemets
Romania has an even stronger correlation, but I admit to not knowing much about their politics
Almost anyone >>> ottomans
Soviet Union > EU
EEC was fine, but it was always intended to become a United States of Europe
I'm memeing but I'm also serious
Kalergi and others were clear on that
bad economic politices or whatever can be fixed
demographics displacement is hard to fix
Ehh. I think it's best to just say both the EU and USSR are horrible. We suggest, dare I say, a *third position* between communism and neoliberal globalism
I mean if I had to chose I'd pick the USSR
They at least had border controls
@Alex Kolchak - NY I guess they never miss, huh.
I'd choose the EU/USA because we can do more to turn things around here
@Zilna Jestov oof...
Not to mention I enjoy food
it’s all relative
