I wish to put out a list which collects a few of the realizations and principles which will guide my politics into the future.
Democracy is a problem:
It has become clear that "Democracy" as it exists in the west is a pressure release valve which in effect only serves to continue the march of "progress." As soon as favor tips towards that which the information apparatus of the state deems appropriate then laws will be passed and cemented, and if it is not happening fast enough then the courts will move to make their will into iron-clad law. Any slowing or stoppage of "progress" will be attacked and destroyed by the high/low alliance of courts, leftist bureaucrats, the media/education complex, and the foot soldiers of progressivism will be in the streets. Fuck em! Philosopher kings all the way. If my thought is muscular enough to land me in the throngs of advisers and interpreters then so be it, if life as a worker in the modern day stables of a mechanic's garage is where I land then so be that. It's all better than the seeming inevitability of being marched to the guillotine for my wrong-think.
Racism:
"I am not a racist, but I don't care if you think that I am."
As I see it the rise of anti-racism since the end of World War 2 is at core meant to stop violence that can arise through racial hatred. This is a clearly noble goal, but our definition that "nobody should be judged by their race" leads inevitably to the new/ever devolving definitions being stirred in the rotting stew of academic discourse. The strict hierarchical head-flipping that progressivism demands, and "institutional power + privilege" as it stands flow from the slow dissolution of unprincipled exceptions in this definition. (See Moldbug's writing for a detailed explanation of how "no person should be judged by their race" leads inevitably to the concept that "borders are racist.") So instead I have developed the personal, (though admittedly loose) working definition that "Racism is that which directly advocates violence against human beings of separate races out of irrational belief."
Tribalism:
Seeing as every "tribal group" except for white liberals has a measurable in-group preference, except the white liberal/leftist (who has a demonstrable out-group preference) and even the white conservative has less of an in-group preference than every other ethnic group (I am too lazy to link the study but if challenged will gladly take the extra 5 minutes to do so). I will take it upon myself to support white men, the caveat being that evidence trumps group preference in every occasion. I will support those who have evidence on their side, but until the evidence is available I will support the white male, if with nothing else, ambivalence/ non-condemnation.
Might:
Might makes right as far as societal structure is concerned. The left very clearly knows this otherwise the obfuscation and lies would not be so bold-faced. On a personal and moral level might makes nothing, but "history is written by the victors" is a truism for a reason.
Oligarchy:
The Iron Law of Oligarchy is and will be in full effect. The left absolutely refuses to acknowledge this, or at best only counteracts existing Oligarchical structures without mounting any new defense for their supposedly "improved" system. The right falls prey to the same, but at least they do not claim to be practicing a science in the same way that Marxists do, nor to be the supreme arbiters of moral good as the progressives. Even Christians have the recognition of their own fundamental flaws baked into their accepted moral system.
Fundamental Humanism:
All my politics are located in the original desire for a happier life for all people. Because of this I find Marxists, Progressives, and leftists of all stripes as my enemies. I find Fascists to have corrupted fundamental truths in much the same ways that the left has, therefore they are my enemies. Accelerationists too. Nick Land is a prophet and I think you should know that, but those that would attempt to push others into atrocities for the sake of a nebulous potential strife with an even more nebulous potential betterment in the future, especially without first performing what they advocate.. They are scum, filth. At least the leftist has a full morality system on their side, what do violent accels have except for base nihilism.
This is a list i'm sure that I will expand, incorporate criticism of and elaborate upon with a part 2.
Until then.. Thanks for reading! -Plat
