Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

The alt-right movement has merged with the Conservatives in the US and UK. That's what Brexit and election of Trump was all about. I have written for a decade  on the leftist blogs about this fusion. After the [predicted] defeat of HRC in the presidential election of 2016 my analysis came under attack for heresy. Progressive Democrats? An endangered species ...

Just recently came across a person who has operated under the radar. Not once mentioned on this blog and really only once @BooMan in 2005. Jared Taylor [American Renaissance] is one of thousands of operatives paid for by the billionaires supporting chaos in our democratic institutions. Propaganda and a tranquil media do the rest.

Private meeting Jared Taylor with Dutch politician Thierry Baudet
Erkenbrand, alt-right in Netherlands

Three states with power have used the alt-right movement to secure votes in gaining a majority in elections: Israel - United Kingdom and the United States.

What YouTube Offers Right-Wingers -- National Review

AIN personalities tend to package their philosophy and policy alongside reactionary or attention-getting content, building brands that include rants, mini documentaries, and long-form interviews that can last hours. Their millions of followers tend to see them as trustworthy, authentic, and accountable -- three qualities Lewis identifies as the foundations of a successful channel. Such channels also typically evince a tone of edginess -- even danger. Iconoclasm is the norm. Lewis calls it a paradoxical mix of "hyper-traditional ideals with the rebellious positioning of past countercultural movements."

This serves as an important reminder of how increasingly common it is for young people to embrace anti-Left politics out of a desire to rebel. The success of the AIN is but one symptom of a larger evolution of the conservative disposition away from Burkean instincts of caution and respect in favor of juvenile defiance and distrustfulness.

There is no scenario in which these young men do not one day become an influential force in right-of-center politics, as either voters, consumers, or perhaps even media personalities or politicians themselves.
Where are the young women in this story?

Alrighty then.

Sexual ambivalence is a start, rather an artifact of eurocentric THIRD WAVE political rebellion against patronizing ideology --chiefly, iconography, role play, as in The Handmaid's Tale.

Define the term "conservative" or "right-wing" or "far-right": Who? What? Where? How does ideology proscribe the political and moral authority of "women" (and minorities)?

Apply to theory and practice of SJW (FIFTH WAVE) "issue-oriented" rebellion. Identify effects of "women's liberation" from not-liberal institutions, if any that are attributable to this "movement" --besides safe spaces and whisper lists.

Sexual ambivalence is played without definitions.

Turning to bad boys is a classic of "dialectic rebellion".

Anarchy in theory? Find me that SJW manifesto, pls, or policy in practice --from anywhere.

That doesn't stop people from forming committees with beverages, writing them, then publishing them for people who weren't invited to the committee to read.

Literacy is satan, you know.
