He's actually ridiculously sympathetic to the nazis. E.g. he constantly tries to imply the allies were at fault for the war.

>not all jews are part of the highest echelon of society
No but compared to any other group they are massively overrepresented which is the issue, it has to do with their culture (yes even secular)
>the ideology itself is anglosaxon in nature
No it's not, the parasitic aspect is very jewish, anglo-saxons used to be nothing like that until the jewish financed anglo-normans came into power.
> jewish people left to their own can be very ethnonationalistic, see the state of Israel for that example
Don't you see the contradiction here? For 2000 years they had no nation, thus making it impossible for them to be ethnonationalistic. Yet in order to survive they had to be parasites leeching off of other societies, sometimes doing good in the process but mostly furthering their own interests.
>hey even helped the Rhodesians when the UK and the US were boycotting them, what´s you excuse for that fuckface?

Thank you.

Before he abandoned it, Yarvin's American Mind series was an attempt to explain why since the 1940's politics, the media, and academia all seem to be in one accord, despite the fact they don't have briefing/debriefing meetings on social marxism.

One could examine certain people within all of those organizations who hold a disporportionate amount of power and examine things those people have in common or......

one could come up with the fanciful theory that power is actually the force in Star Wars, and that it's midichlorian count, not logic...that explains their flow.

Yarvin chose the latter explanation.

I find a good way to explain this to stormfags is by telling them that Rothschilds is not some evil exception to the rule, but rather is the rule itself of Anglo banking, and that if you are going to condemn the Jewish banking dynasties you have to do the same for Anglos generally. This makes it more obvious to them I think why it's stupid to blame all Jews since evidently it is stupid to blame all Anglos for the Bank of England. Even if you want to get conspiratorial and claim Jews orchestrated the banks from the beginning, that still does not implicate all Jews.

Of course casual antisemitism, and notions of possible nepotism and ethnocentrism, are not contradicted by this, but I don't think these are really all that dangerous, it's not that different than calling Irish or Italians clannish, Jews just maybe do more of it and are a bit better at it(if you accept the premise of course). But it helps to reframe things in a way where we are looking at particular little groups and institutions, who might well have ethnic patterns, but who do not include all members of any ethnicity, and who are themselves not comprised purely of any one ethnicity.

Not exactly. His substack apologia in regard to the Biden endorsement is incongruous with what he said in preelection interviews.

In the interviews he claimed the BLM/Antifa participants were spurred to action due to Trump derangement, and with Trump gone, the left would lose this energy and find themselves in an indefensible position.
Per Yarvin:
>basically this energy just ossifies itself and disappears.

its a fucking terrible start. how would Holocaust II (no more wooden doors motherfuckers), even begin? So you somehow seize military/police control, institutions which have immense oversight by the civil service i.e. the deepstate i.e. the ZOG, and your first move is to go around putting any steins or bergs into cattle cars and MRAPs?

If you can convince the Western populace to go along with a genocide the synagogue/cathedral has obviously already been dismantled. You'd be massacring the Jews out of spite.

BUT if the Cathedral/synagogue is still intact, doing a Kristallnacht would ruin any good faith your white nationalist movement would have left, and any institutions sympathetic to you would instantly turn. The actual NSDAP could get away with street violence because the immediate post-war chaos made groups like the Freikorps necessary, and the German judiciary was extremely sympathetic to their cause. Hitler served 9 months after trying to overthrow the government. The capitol vandals of 2021 are now the subject of an enormous nationwide manhunt.

Leftist riots occurring in a Biden term refute Yarvin's claim. There is not action that the administration or any authority can take to make him correct post facto.

And remember, he wasn't refering to "the cathedral's" power dissipating upon Biden's election, he was specifically refering to BLM/Antifa types who normally weren't political actors. He reasoned that with Biden in office, they would wander around aimlessly and then go home. Ironically that is what such actors on the right did when they were in the capitol.

Turns out, the leftist actors were nothing more than a nominal appendage of the democratic structure, and they will serve to strengthen that structure more with leftists in power than they would with Trump in office.

It seems odd that Bidenites apparently understand Burnham's notion of formal truth better than an avowed student of The Machiavellians.

I don't think so though it depends what exactly we mean by riots. If protests emerge but the state squashes them brutally and right away I'd say this would count as an accurate prediction on his part, at least to some degree.
