I actually wonder how much of the uptick in political extremism (between the alt-right and the antifa types) is the internet tough guy ethos and troll culture leaking into the real world. 

People wanting to LARP WW2 (and the U.S civil war) to look badass, while seeming to forget the part where millions died.

There’s some of that but I think it’s more about European politics leaking into the US through the Internet

Democratic socialist politics and antifa specifically is from Europe

Ethno-nationalist politics and Nazi street fighting specifically is from Europe

It’s shocking because it doesn’t belong here and it doesn’t make sense in America where there’s no chance of either movement gaining enough political traction to achieve their goals and just about everybody involved in serious street violence gets arrested and has their life ruined, or gets shot

And I’ve seen a lot of Europeans get bizarrely invested in extremely America-centric issues as well, it’s not just one-sided

It’s worth noting that Richard Spencer almost exclusively gets his ideas from European thinkers like Benoist and Dugin. He more or less shuns Moldbug, the only major contemporary American unorthodox right-wing intellectual around. So I think that theory of europeanization may hold some merit.

What degenerate branch of my ancestry managed to survive - and thrive - with the instinctual response to warm weather “Yeah I should slip out of this vitally protective covering (: (: (:”

Ok a little bit political

I’m glad I don’t have a brainless racist narcist demented idiot for president. Oh and, when he got elected I already predicted this would lead to a new civil war.

Aren’t you in Europe?

Come now, you Europeans love America! That’s why you’re trying to turn Europe into America after all, with internal open borders, a federal government, a unified currency, and the emergence of a monoculture founded on those three traits, which has only minor regional differences in culture.

Soon you’ll have your own New New York, with your very own Orange Man. It’ll be great.

in this case Lee seems to be less of an asshole than many of the people who idolise him, sadly, but the dude did fight for treason in defense of slavery etc.

Replace all Robert E. Lee monuments with Bruce Lee monuments. It will piss off both those who want the statues and those who want the statues removed, and raise the profile of martial arts in the nation, helping to make the country stronger.

But, like, Bruce Lee shirtless in an awesome kung fu pose, or Bruce Lee wearing a confederate uniform and sitting on a horse?

mitigatedchaos

That’s an excellent question.

A nationwide martial arts tournament will be held between the kung fu pose faction and the confederate horse faction in order to decide which shall dominate.
