does anyone know where spencer came from? it seemed like the media dug this guy up after the election to find a nazi seig heiling trump but i never heard of him before that and without his new media presence it seems like he is a nobody?

i heard of spencer years ago but i don't remember the context. he was the one young dude involved in NPI at least ten years ago.

goole, Tuesday, 21 February 2017 21:58 (seven years ago) link

his website called, 'alternative right,' was put up around the time john derbyshire was booted from NRO.

goole, Tuesday, 21 February 2017 21:59 (seven years ago) link

well obv not the one and only young dude but he had some prominence

no doubt it's long gone but i found his weightlifting blog once

also, he once threw up on Taki's carpet:

I invited Richard Spencer to visit me in my New York house where I offered him the job of running my website, Takimag. (He had worked at the magazine but been laid off.) Richard was well-read, a bit vague, nice-looking, well-dressed and well-spoken. Things were hunky-dory until he asked me where the bathroom was. When he returned, he looked a bit pale but told me he was fine. After we’d agreed his salary and the ideology Takimag would espouse — all shades of opinions towards the right — we shook hands and off he went.

At that point one of the maids came down and informed me that my guest had thrown up all over the carpet and simply left the mess for her to clean up. The mother of my children was outraged, and when I defended him by saying that he hadn’t thrown up on purpose, she pointed out that no member of our staff was expected to clean up such a mess. As she was already Orlando Furioso, I withheld the fact that Spencer hadn’t even bothered to tell me about it.

Thanks to Augustine, among others, I am convinced that there is a profound link between fencing and prayer, our souls like swords to be wielded by God.

glad the mother of his children stood up for the staff

having the money to have a house in new york with staff but having carpet in the bathroom smh

Islamic State of Mind (jim in vancouver), Tuesday, 21 February 2017 22:14 (seven years ago) link

oh jesus I assumed the carpet was outside the bathroom and he just didn't even make it there

if the bathroom was carpeted then that speaks volumes about taki

mh 😏, Tuesday, 21 February 2017 22:18 (seven years ago) link

oh yes of course excuse my reading it does not seem to suggest that it was in the bathroom

Virtually the only thing to look forward to over the next few years is this self-inflicted downfall of verminous fucks like Milo so we might as well enjoy it when it happens. Even if there will almost inevitably be someone else to fill the vacuum.

I have a feeling we haven't seen the last of Milo. I can imagine he'll be setting up his on Breitbart website--"Club Milo" or some shit--pretty soon to rebuild his brand.

Do redpill dudes really describe their opponents as bullies? Seems a bit wussy. Fencing Bear makes me think of the Barbara Kay/Christie Blatchford/Margaret Wente raging granny trio.

My Body's Made of Crushed Little Evening Stars (Sund4r), Tuesday, 21 February 2017 23:52 (seven years ago) link

Since when does Breitbart have standards? Firing Milo is sheer opportunism -- a way for them to clean up their brand without really changing. That's the new thing -- set the bar unfathomably low so that people are pleasantly surprised when you do something that should just be expected.

I'm about halfway through that 4chan piece and while it's fascinating in its own right, I feel like "skeleton key" is overselling it ludicrously. These dudes are loud on the internet and gleefully took credit for Trump's victory, and it's certainly a worrying cultural trend in its own right, but I feel like as far as support for Trump goes they're a sideshow at best. Young people voted for the dude less than any other age group iirc, and while there's ideological overlap between them and your average Trump voter there's also pretty clear differences - average Trump voter couldn't care less about female Ghostbusters or ethics in gaming journalism and, to the extent they're even aware of these types, probably feel contempt for their basement dwelling, anime hair ways. And they certainly didn't vote Trump because they think he's a loser.

man, even the right's newfound "pedophilia is a bridge too far" stance seems so fake right now. I mean we had this politician who would openly brag about barging into the locker rooms at Miss Teen USA and checking out the women and they elected him President of the United States.

frogbs, Wednesday, 22 February 2017 14:27 (seven years ago) link

Well, it's pedophilia when it involves boys.

Over a few confusing minutes, Schneider argued that the “alt-right,” a term coined then popularized by the National Policy Institute’s Richard Spencer, was philosophically left-wing because it departed from his definition of conservatism, in which “the individual” is sovereign.

“They hate the Constitution. They hate free markets. They hate pluralism,” Schneider said. “Fascists tend to want big government control.”

Well well.

"fascism is a species of leftism" has been an article of faith in american conservatism for a while now.

We're not even on a "I actually mean the opposite of the blatant lies I'm telling" level of attempted reality alteration anymore. This is some "that sandwich is actually a rabbit and rabbits are the antithesis of everything I stand for and also please ignore me as I savor this delicious sandwich that I'm eating" unknitting the very fabric of meaning shit.

Hurry Up And Eat Your Face! (Old Lunch), Thursday, 23 February 2017 17:23 (seven years ago) link

And it's unnecessary! These people are white supremacists and fascists. Their supporters are white supremacists and fascists. They would love for you to vocally embrace those tenets. And the people who oppose you see right through your shit no matter what garbled nonsense you spew as a smokescreen.
