better written, perhaps. but i would argue that it misses the point, being that it focuses too much on the individual nation, which is to say, 19th century ideas of nationality, at the expense of the more important concept of comradeship based upon a spiritual-ethical, horizontal conception of belonging. vertical race was the greatest fallacy of the revolution of 1933 and its subsequent knockoffs imo

#127
i never read yockey cuz tsargon said it was dumb but your problem with codreanu is that he didnt make up a new theory of race based on spengler?

because if thats so then i think you missed the point

well no, not exactly. i suppose my problem would be that the goals of his movement were too limited, in that they only concerned the cathartic palingenesis of the romanian nation, based on an antiquated idea of what the nation meant, which i have already said should be interpreted not as by the color of one's skin or place of birth, as it is in codreanu's world, but rather by the spirit or ethical commitment to the idea of the Culture that a person professes to belong to. in this case, that should have been the Western Culture.

it is here that i believe that he, along with many leaders of the 20th century, missed the mark. by fighting for the supremacy of an individual nation, which belongs to a greater cultural organism, the Western Culture itself suffers and declines. he should have eschewed the nationalist argument in favor of one that promoted the defense of the entire Western Culture against cultural parasites and cultural distorters.

in short, it's not about the primacy of the nation over another nation, but rather the primacy of the Culture as a whole against outside influences that are working to destroy it or divert it from its true destiny.

what is the the true destiny of western culture?

to die, unfortunately, like all living organisms. i like to think of my philosophy as putting it on a feeding tube, some terri schiavo shit or whatnot

because romania has little to nothing in common with the east except for its adherence to orthodox christianity

Your evasion of the nationality question pretty much highlights how yockeyism springs from an American desire to be a part of the great old culture that one isnt really a part of anymore and ride the fascist train. So you make up an idea of race that allows you to be included in the great western whole but its totally and ridiculously stupid and inconceivable to real European fascists.
#137
american patriotism/jingoism/"nationalism" is based on universal ideals inherently incompatible with the idea of nationalism

i come at it from the opposite angle, that America has only a tenuous, dusty connection founded much more on the venal interests of economic and military elites than any real organic, cultural connection. european interests are not American interests, and yockeys argument that the entire west is / moves as one as such is not a compelling one.

this is only a recent development and has far more to do with the mythological narrative of large-scale American imperialism (itself, again, a recent development) which has little to do with the real soul of the American nation

I agree with all that, my point is just that yockey and his followers capable of intellectually engaging him are just a bunch of weirdos who couldnt go all the way and talk about how America is the inheritor of the Atlantean legacy

it has at best been an outpost of the western powers, and currently shares the same geopolitical position as the rest of the balkan countries. it also has been relatively isolated from the west since the fall roman empire. and there is no way you can really separate the local latinized populations from the slavic/avar/turkic peoples that came later and their shared history.

I don't think America should have universal health care. It's obviously good policy and the compassionate thing to do but that's not what America is all about. It's about gross irresponsibility and fatuous proclamations of individual freedom

I would lose a great source of entertainment if America ever became a compassionate or egalitarian society.

ugh the entire west doesn't move as one as of yet. it has to be made to by embracing ethical socialism and uniting against the savages to the east and the distorted western colony to the... west. only then will western civilization be able to limp along in its constant vegetative state

i should state now that america sucks and isn't seriously part of the western culture anymore due to the infiltration and corruption of its once pure pure values by cultural parasites/distorters, and also its dedication to a cosmopolitan lifestyle that puts the needs of money-makers over those of the Culture itself

Hardcore Pawn is set in Detroit and it’s a certain cosmopolitan family dealing with a largely black customer base.

It’s brutal.

If america isn't part of western culture anymore because of "cultural parasites" and cosmopolitanism and placing money above culture then who is? You're maybe left with Austria, Lichenstein and Andorra or something
