To quote you;
People keep saying, “a backlash is coming,” and they are definitely right. But the backlash that is coming is going to be a stupid disaster.
I could not agree more.
That was a well-written rant and almost makes me want to un-block that sub.
Anglin is anything but an idiot, I like his writings, it's both easy to read and funny, rather concise, and often very well thought, when it comes to perspectives and general forecast. He's been patrolling the same turf since a while, since forever actually, now he knows damn well his terrain and problematics surrounding it, he's "seen it all", and it's tough political terrain, probably the toughest since it is anything but mainstream partly because it touches many taboos, intellectual "no go zones". And since the last drama episode with the self proclaimed neo nazis crew, he's turned truly independent intellectually speaking, now it's just him and his personal crusade/reflection. It's the right path, he's only going to get sharper overtime, and he isn't going to give up, it's an integral part of him now. He probably will end up writting books in a couple of decades and become a reference. An underground intellectual reference, but a reference none the less. He's not past his 50s yet
Oh I know he's not an idiot. He's just not my cup of tea, so to speak.
Well he's an unapologetic racist and antisemite. I don't necessarily see that as a problem, unless of course if he's tasked to promote jews and diversity lol
Anyway, those are convenient political labels, he's ethnocentric through and through, and he's not going to apologize for it. I would rather be locked down for life in a chat room with him than with kurt eichenwald. I think I would seriously start to ponder suicide in about a month with the latter. Now I would probably try to send him some flickering animated gifs, first.
