This is an oversimplifation of a very very good essay but I needed something to put in the thread title
Everyone should read this but there are some individual people on this forum that really really need to read this. They will most likely not have the self awareness to realize it is about them, but you never know
Long essay, you should budget around 45 minutes |

That's true-- instead they overthrew the provisional government and murdered Russian democracy in its crib. Judaism condemned Russia to decades of tyranny. At least Stalin killed most of those directly responsible but jfc. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5705908&forum_id=2:#48978579) |

They want to watch an 8 hour stream of a 14-year-old owning an OnlyFans girl in a debate with facts and logic so they can imagine themselves as the 14-year-old, oblivious to the fact that the stream itself is paid promotion for the OnlyFan girl’s fuckvids. They want someone to write a GQ article about how they are cool or relevant or important that no one will bother to read. They want to repeat a canned argument they saw someone else make years ago, badly. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5705908&forum_id=2:#48819252) |

Date: May 28th, 2025 2:19 PM Author: literal mass rape event "I said in my previous essay that there is no anti-Trump Right, only Trump and the enemy. I sincerely believe that, even when Trump is unambiguously wrong and his rightwing critics are unambiguously correct. Trump’s continued success means that we continue to have the opportunity to improve the situation. There is no real world alternative in existence. None. Trump is the only game in town when it comes to achieving things in reality. Trump failing to achieve his goals would not provide an opening for X, Y, or Z new rightwing system. Rather, it would allow liberals to reassert their control and complete the nearly-finished destruction of our country. This is obvious unless you are divorced from reality (due to self-obsession or otherwise), which, as I have laid out earlier, a large and growing portion of rightwing circles are.
I have to say, if you’ve fallen for the latest round of “principled” opposition to Trump over any topic, you lack the emotional stability and discernment required for meaningful discourse. You are probably just a normie who changed the channel. You still do not understand anything." |

Date: May 28th, 2025 2:21 PM Author: literal mass rape event There are many people who can make the theoretical case for mass deportations, but only a few people who could make mass deportations happen. Trump is the only reason we can even have this conversation. He was the only Republican candidate who could have won the election and also deliver the House and the Senate, allowing executive action to be carried out with the help of Congress. Trump’s officials are right now engaged in a variety of conflicts with the judicial system and administrative state in order to implement Trump’s agenda, including mass deportations. The solution that Trump’s critics always arrive at, jettisoning the only people who can actually do things for them, illustrates that they do not value achieving their supposed goals in any meaningful way. They are just here to talk. They are just here to talk about themselves.
What alternatives have such people proposed? I have seen many of them suggest replacing Trump/Vance with Massie/Paul, libertarians who not only could not win nationally but also oppose many of Trump’s restrictive immigration measures, because they just heard about Massie online recently and think (incorrectly) that he hates Jews. There is also the recurring smattering of accelerationist fantasies which, as I laid out earlier, simply are never acted on and are more about reinforcing one’s online identity than achieving anything in the real world. Finally, there are the people who don’t even pretend to offer an alternative to Trump (beyond the fantastical arrival of a huge rightwing revolution or new Hitler), but claim that Trump’s tardy mass deportations prove that he was an unsuitable candidate and that rightwingers should not have participated in the system at all, which would have accomplished nothing beyond ensuring victory for Kamala Harris, who promised open borders and amnesty and permanent defeat for the American Right. All of these suggestions move you farther away from mass deportations than blindly supporting Trump does.
The whole thing is retarded. All of these people are retarded. We cannot work with this material, at least not towards anything good. This is a problem because the narrow (and shrinking) range of individuals who are smart and energetic enough to be capable of productive action, who you want to be engaged with rightwing thought, are increasingly funneled into a schizophrenic conspiracy culture where people are socialized to lie incessantly and talk only about themselves, rather than encountering a well developed pedagogy for an emerging rightwing capable of pursuing realistic objectives over of the long term. Talent is wasted and eventually lost forever, and, worst of all, it is all for nothing. No one gains anything from this arrangement. |

Date: May 28th, 2025 2:23 PM Author: literal mass rape event Why are we all here? What is this all about? Where should we direct our energy? Is the goal of rightwing politics to redpill the normies? Is it to show others how smart or transgressive or correct you are? Is it to predict defeat and then wait to be proven right? Is it to commune with demons in the Noosphere to manipulate crypto markets? Do we need to go back ten years, or a hundred years, or ten thousand years?
No. The goal in politics is to win and then make the world a better place. The promise of Trump is that victory will be prioritized over the ideological ghettos conservatives have spent decades carving out for themselves, and that real world gains will be prioritized over thought experiments. You might argue that it is necessary to talk constantly about all of the topics that people are so preoccupied with these days in order to win and then make the world a better place, but I would respond that Trump did not do this and he was elected President (saving the country) twice, while the people who make these topics core components of their online brands have no real world political accomplishments to their names and frequently try to sabotage productive efforts.
Trump is “the good part.” He has allowed rightwingers to access the real world levers of power in a way they normally would not have been able to, and has done real world damage to the forces arrayed against us at a magnitude that all of his critics combined could not hope to match. Our horizon of possibility has been expanded rather than closed forever. No one who criticizes Trump has accomplished more than him, or even a tiny fraction of what he has accomplished. That means something big, whatever quibbles you might have about Trump’s policies or their implementation. The promise of Trump is not that you will get whatever you want automatically, but rather that you have a fighting chance where none existed before. |

Date: May 28th, 2025 2:24 PM Author: literal mass rape event What “the good part” is varies from person to person, but online it normally comes down to feelings of vindication or satisfaction. I think this traces back to self-obsession. Someone wants to identify as “being right” or, worse, as “being better” than some online rival (this was very noticeable in the Ruralite discourse, which was obviously driven by the inferiority complexes of many of the participants). The pervasive dishonesty we see online today stems from people valuing the feeling of being right more than they actually value being right. The pervasive catastrophizing, whataboutism, and concern trolling, responses that accomplish nothing but helping our enemies, we see online today stem from people valuing that feeling over achieving anything in the real world.
Today’s dishonest online culture serves as a convenient personal escape from the tedious, complex, and unpleasant tasks required to fix our country. What if instead of having to worry about bills and elections and nominations and rulings and court cases and political coalitions and treaties and all the other things that people who wield power have to worry about, we only had to worry about ourselves? What if we only had to worry about our social standing or our arguments or our internet debate clubs? What if we only had to worry about our feelings about Israel or the Jews? What if we only had to worry about our consequence-free intellectual playtime with UFOs or nanobots or lizard people? This would all be very nice, but unfortunately we do not live in such a world. |

https://www.theconundrumcluster.com/p/we-need-a-new-rightwing-party-based
We need a new rightwing party based around histrionic middle aged social media addicts proposing that we let liberals win whenever setbacks are encountered, real or imagined
Just hear me out on this one
Conundrum Cluster May 31, 2025
Holy shit. HOLY SHIT. Did you guys hear about the bill? Did you hear about the court case? Did you hear about the quote? I’ve been one of Trump’s most loyal supporters since my most recent tantrum when I condemned him last week but I truly think it’s over this time, guys.
I’m angry. This thing I just heard about? It’s made me angry. Something else made me angry last week and even though it ended up almost immediately proving to be not a big deal, I don’t remember that at all. I do remember that I felt angry and, because I am no longer able to process my emotions due to the addictive nature of online catastrophizing, those unjustified feelings only serve to ratify my present ill-formed panic. I talked to the rest of my digital support group and we all agreed that we’re angry and scared.
Even though the situation is objectively the best it’s been in decades and we have a historic opportunity to transform American society in a narrow and shrinking window of time, Trump’s inability to prevent all bad things from happening, magically correct problems that have been decades or even centuries in the making, and stop stupid people from saying stupid things after 5 months in office reflects a deep and profound failure that I could have never anticipated and shouldn’t be expected to navigate.
We need a new plan and new direction: Instead of trying to find a way to help our elected representatives implement policies we support, instead of organizing a primary effort to replace objectionable figures over the year and a half we have to prepare, instead of creating some kind of internal organization or institutional force to achieve our political goals, instead of participating in the systems we pretend to care about, we have to let liberals win.
If we let liberals win, Republicans will finally understand that I shouldn’t feel angry or scared anymore. If we let liberals win, then the unconscious emotional investment that I have developed in my predictions of defeat coming true will pay off. If we let liberals win, we won’t have to take responsibility for our own success or failure. There are really no downsides to letting liberals win other than liberals winning, a concern that I consider secondary to obtaining vindication over my intrafactional rivals because I am incapable of depersonalizing politics, which I view as an identity signifier and vehicle for self expression because I interact with it through the distorting lens of social media.
Someone who is unable to let events play out for a year, a month, or even a few days is invaluable in times of crisis. Someone who must be talked off the ledge every week is a huge asset. Someone who is upset that Republicans are not doing enough in Congress and concludes from this that we need to give Democrats more power in Congress has a lot of good ideas. Constantly embellishing failures and minimizing successes is critical to creating an effective and motivated political force. If there’s one thing recent events have made clear, it’s that in conservative politics there is a huge surplus of people who are capable of productive action and a huge shortage of hyperbolic internet commentary, unachievable fantasies, and reasons to lose.
Before you object to this proposal, please know that I’m suggesting that we let liberals win for the right reasons. Even though what I’m saying is not true, premature, poorly-supported, or merely unhelpful, please know that my feelings of panic and despair are very real and therefore above reproach. Politics is not about achieving things in the real world, but rather about feeling heard and understood. It’s about the dopamine rush that accompanies vocalizing your anxieties especially when you can validate the anxieties of others to maximize engagement. It’s about the psychodrama that follows getting angry at your phone.
It’s very likely that whatever I’m angry about will soon be revealed as not as big a deal as I’m making it out to be. A new story will probably emerge to capture my attention or a perhaps even good news will arrive that washes away whatever the media cycle carried to shore. However, my volatile feelings will always linger and grow with the generalized sense of negativity and helplessness that I am helping to craft, ready to explode outward at the next twist of fate.
See you next week. |
