The MAGA movement is like a mob of Shaniquas.
They think status comes from being loud and vulgar.
Like a bunch of Shaniquas arguing on a crowded bus… Yelling and cursing.
(Someone put together a short clip highlighting the MAGA-niqua attitude here.)
Obviously, this is channeling some serious ressentiment.
And I’ve said for a long time that, these days, Nietzsche’s “slave revolt“ is coming from the Right.
It used to be that slave morality came from the Left. Various leftist movements would incite “clients“ (victim groups) to revolt against their “masters”.
Women revolting against men… sexual minorities revolting against the family… ethnic minorities revolting against whites… children revolting against parents… even handicapped people revolting against “ableism“…
But, of course, the problem with the “slave revolt“ is that it is purely destructive.
“I have been victimized, therefore I will destroy society.“
So, we see sexual minorities walking around naked in “Pride parades“… People who can’t create beauty creating ugliness… Modern art and modern architecture… “Incels“ murdering women… Transvestites reading stories to children…
The Left never had a positive vision for society. They were only motivated by the impulse to destroy standards they themselves couldn’t live up to…
A need to “get back“ at the normal people who made them feel bad about themselves.
And now that the Left has run out of steam… (they’ve done all they could to burn down society)… Now it’s the so-called Right’s turn to activate its slave morality.
And the slave revolt from the Right has exactly the same problem as the slave revolt from the Left — it’s purely destructive.
It’s mostly a mob of more or less conservative Christians or post-Christians who believe that if something bad happens in society, it is only because “they“ have done it…
It’s not clear who “they“ are… It’s sometimes “Democrats“… sometimes the “deep state“… sometimes “liberals“… and sometimes even Jews.
The important thing is that it’s good vs. evil — and if bad things happen, it’s only because evil people are conspiring against “us“.
(It couldn’t possibly be that the entire West is built on false ideas that could never work, no matter who is running the show.)
And so, because everything is a conspiracy, there can’t be a good-faith attempt to understand anything that is happening in the world…
All that remains is, fuck you!!
Screw you!!
Screw you, dad!!
And that goes for every single issue in society. There is not one issue that these people understand or even try to understand.
If there is replacement migration, it’s because “they“ are doing it.
(Ignore the fact that replacement migration will continue no matter who wins any election in the West.)
If USA has any foreign policy at all, it’s because “neocons“ are doing it.
(Of course, if not for the “neocons“, USA wouldn’t have any foreign policy — and the rest of the world would just be engaged in polite discussion.)
Everything has been reduced to some vague Alex Jones-type conspiracy theory.
A friend of mine put it another way. (I can’t mention his name, so he’ll remain anonymous.)
He said, the American Right correctly observed that being “respectable losers“ was not a winning strategy.
So they concluded that they must do exactly the opposite. The goal is to get rid of all respectability.
Be as tacky, indecent, and vulgar as possible. That became an end in itself.
That became the only goal.
But if you completely lack substance, it doesn’t matter if you’re respectable or trashy. You’re not going to do anything worthwhile.
You can scream screw you! as much as you like…
They had the right problem, but the wrong solution.
And so, all we’re left with is ressentiment from the “Right“ with no coherent idea about anything.
The MAGA-niqua movement and the online conspiracy sphere is just replacing one slave revolt with another as society continues to collapse…
