Societies in the West are a political battleground between Globalists and Populists as described in a recent video by KeiserBauch…
I am a strange breed of a person that holds Magister Artium from one of the most left-wing British universities and I almost ubiquitously vote for far right populists and libertarians. This is because instead of subscribing to what is shoved into the brains of students in universities and making that my identity, I can think for myself.
The political spectrum is getting less and less ideologically diverse. There are two competing ideas as described above. The elite is almost all in favor of neoliberalism and globalism, whereas the common people are less inclined to supporting these kinds of policies.
While globalization economically benefits the common man here in the West, it also inevitably disrupts his environment through mass immigration and outsourcing of jobs. The problem with globalization is that it has its winners and losers. The wealthier you are, the closer you live near centres of wealth distribution, the more you benefit from the globalized World. But the poorer and more remote you are the more you will be on the losing side.
And the question is, do the enlightened, urban, university educated classes have the right to pontificate over the wretched of this World? Somehow, the immigrants that cross the Mediterranean because their countries of origin are on the losing end of the neoliberal world order are protected because gods forbid we could be seen as racist but indigenous people of Europe that found themselves marginalized are just deplorables.
The urban class has exported wokeness from the universities. Wokeness is about pedestalizing historically oppressed minorities. It expresses itself in mass entertainment by the inclusion of blacks and homosexuals at the expense of narrative. It expresses itself in politics through gynocentrism. Expanded rape and domestic violence laws, and quotas for women. I absolutely hate seeing these politically correct simps praise women in the police force or the military, it is so fake and so cringe.
There might be a misconception that big money promotes wokeness. You definitely see Rockefellers or BlackRock supporting these initiatives with their money but these ideas have their origins somewhere else, and big money has poured oil into the tank to power the engine. These entities see profit in this, they are also just as quick to abandon these causes if they see them as unprofitable or unpopular. It is my belief that most of this stuff is grassroots but was able to find patrons. Not the other way around. Big corporations will be virtue signaling over anything they perceive as a currently reigning ideology, that’s why we see BMW logo with a swastikas and a fag flag.
For some reason, everything leftist ideology touches goes to shit. Gender relations, entertainment, quality of service, the police, the military, you name it. This woke shit does not even make money as it should. But here I think we misunderstand the left, the left only pretends to offer solutions, in fact creative destruction is the point and the point is the struggle. Anywhere these leftist ideas are applied it leads to poverty and decay and this is not by accident. The end goal is there isn’t any end goal, only the struggle.

Honestly, this type of talking points were unheard of back in 2000s. Back in 2000s, folks were all against Bush and Patriot Act and all that and we were all more focused on having a good time, but they somehow find it ok to go along with Bush’s “tax less, spend more” and as US was the trend setter of the world (to some extent, it still is, despite US itself is not doing well anymore).
It’s only until around early to mid 2010s, when the left fucked up big time as they tried to push their Utopian ideas in the midst of a massive global unemployment streak, and due to the middle-class boomers being completely clueless about the harsh realities combined with the comfort brought by 90s and 2000s more hedonistic lifestyle, folks were super pissed about the situation. Also, the likes of Tumblr didn’t help for one bit. All of these were what led to the right-wing surge and distrust in conventional education…even though for me, I have never trusted it as before I even dropped out of high school and ditched my parents, I’ve already began to become suspicious of education system due to me finding Asians to be exploited. Because of lack of such education experiences, I become less rigid with my approaches to politics, even compared to many of today’s right wing. That was how I find things such as Jamahiriya + lowering legal working age to 12 and living independently to 14 completely acceptable. At this point, the only thing I truly agree with the Western right-wing, is how today’s left wing is something that needs to be watched out for. Things such as MGTOW lifestyle, the “throwing bitches and fags to the fire and let them burn instead of protecting them” mentality and legalizing weed…even many right wing guys are opposing such approaches.
At the end, middle-class become divided into two camps: the one who are fed up and turn all the way to the right, and the one who still kinda have it good, usually females, due to lack of consequence for their retarded bullshit. The latter one happens to be the shitting target for both of us. However, in order to address the problem properly, it’s wise to actually see things as how they are and get to the essence of the problem, combine with the whole “save who we can save and leave everything that’s unsalvageable to the fire” attitude. That’s the only way to save the type of middle-class who can still be saved. Honestly, that’s the only way. Everything ranged from China-bashing to trying to bring back how things were back in the 50s to 70s, are completely counterproductive. If I were Western right-wing, I’d trust nationalism and war-talk less and a more problem solving attitude more.
Then again, both the left and the right, elites to today’s populists alike, don’t like my approaches at all, as it’s standing right in the middle of politicians and big businesses cash route. And most folks can’t do critical thinking, as I’ve indicated in one of my post on Facebook. This is going to be difficult.

The leftoids are self righteous twats with their progress bullshit. But the rightoids do not present a viable alternative. Right wing politics these days is most fear mongering and resentment. I also see another force rising, traditional left. Free gibs but no woke. I agree with you, current challenges require modern solutions that will address the problems. The progressives and neoliberals lack any original solutions, they lack imagination. This is why you see recourse to old ideas. This woke shit isn’t exactly new either, it goes back to 1920, with antecedents even earlier. We need a massive economic shock that is going to wake everybody up.

I believe school and filial piety is exactly what stole away everyone’s imagination and originality and how they keep repeating the old tricks. Under the school system which we’re all too familiar with, folks can memorize really well and can do math really well. But when it comes to connecting the dots between what one has gone through and the underlying core issues at hand, they all seem to fare horribly. Both the rights and the lefts are like that. Shit, even the likes of Greg Johnson, Russia’s Tesak and another far right guy from Netherlands, whose name I’ve forgotten, they’ve all gone through a decent amounts of schooling and all have family attachment – that unconditional filial piety, instilled by either Confucian shaming or by the churches’ fear mongering, may be another thing that hinders their imagination, besides schooling. All in all, they were all trained to stick to a certain models of thinking and living, even if that brings them pain and suffering. I don’t like pain nor suffering, nor do I really enjoy becoming someone’s bitch, so I ran. Combined with my natural curiosity, I’ve came up with my own conclusions.
The problem here, is we’re using the social order keeping methods originated from Bronze Age, then combine it with some old German’s idea of keeping populations agreeing with politicians (today’s school system was in fact originated from Prussia), to deal with a much more complex society with much more complex problems than some Bronze Age city states or 1800s Prussia. If course it’s not going anywhere. Then again, this also stands on someone’s cash route. So unless something drastic happens, the top dog will keep the statue quo.
