“ There are alternatives to running a nation-state to failure, such as serious involvement in real politics, but are those as fun as Elon Musk liking your tweets? I think not.”

Does the author seriously propose that the online right, whoever they are though undeniably ostracized by corporate media and machine politics, are running the nation state to failure? It’s the shitposter, and not the neoliberal censors, who deserve the blame?

Good point – author appears unable to see that he is commenting from his own biased digital soap box

Check out his Twitter handle ‘Tinkzorg’, for some of his more serious and profound inner thoughts! Nary a shitpost to be found. A thoroughly decent Swedish chap and certainly not the sanctimonious, lazy-eyed commie people online make him out to be.

You misconstrued that sentence, he’s saying that the dissidents’ seething resentment towards the apparatus of decadent elites running the nation state into the ground is justified, as are they in seeking desperate yet viable alternatives with the objective to uproot their unrighteous pseudo-aristocracy; but shitposting isn’t one.

He’s talked at length about this on his Twitter handle; as in how the self-absorbed dissident cliques refuse to properly engage with populist demographics with actual potential to have a political future, snubbing them, only to withdraw into the recesses of irony-drenched, shitposting, cenobite internet enclaves – eventually deluding themselves into believing that it offers a viable “political solution” to society and their grievances with it, or a meaningful alternative to that (again, failing to convincingly lay out exactly what that alternative might be and how it shall be realized).

“It was only a matter of time before the American media delivered a story of a millennial forced to choose between pure posting and real politics.”
Could it be that “millennials” think that posting IS politics?

I know the writer doesn’t usually contribute the headline, but if either he or the editor think this is confined to the “online right” they are either completely blinkered or engaging in intentional agitprop for the Left.

It ends up being more detrimentally consequential for the Online Right in particular because that’s where the actual radical, “ideological” ammunition for the “Real Right” has become hyperconcentrated at, as opposed to the sociopolitical Left that already commands control over all of the relevant institutions – Cultural, Mass Media; even Judicial, Military and Deep State ones.

In other words, the Left can sort of afford to be delusional Online owing to the Leftward momentum that society’s already barreling onward with, whereas the Right – embroiled in a War of Survival, surrounded on all sides – cannot.

You seem to be missing the point about the subject. You’re trying to claim him for some kind of ideological war on the side of “the Real Right”, whereas Abbasi seems to have no serious ideology at all- that’s the definition of a “shitposter”.
Most of the comments here desperately want to claim this dribbling idiot as a soldier in the Great Culture War, a fellow fighter for the Right; but he isn’t. He will say anything that gets attention, regardless of the political content. He’s just an addict, desperate for his ‘fix’ of a spurious sense of notoriety and ‘influence’. There’s no meaningful point to his rubbish- no great worldview. Nothing.

I’m sorry you found the article difficult to understand (it’s pretty straightfoward), but you failed to answer my point- that anyone who complains that ‘Online culture’ cannot be understood from ‘abroad’ has a pretty confused idea about the nature of ‘online culture’.
The “Online right” exists online. People in Sweden (who, you’ll be surprised to hear, have computers) have the same access to ‘online’ as people in Chicago.

The problem as I see it there’s a difference between stating things from a viewpoint from far away and admitting it might not be accurate to stating you actually know what is going on regardless of whether you actually know. I see a lot of statements about the USA that are made through a lense of international liberal media.

Never apologize, never explain. Those of us on the right who have been paying attention to cancel culture understand that efforts to make amends when accused of “racism” only cause the left to double down on the attacks. This has nothing to do with protecting his online reputation. It’s about standing up to leftist lies and bullying.

Bryan’s “case” is merely confused- he thinks the article is about a racist (which makes him upset, oviously), but if he could manage a little English comprehension he’d realise that the article quite specifically doubts that this sad little online troll IS racist- the point being that he simply wants to “stir shit up”. He has no real beliefs about race either way.
So it’s ok, Bryan- no-one is being nasty about racists, or even the Right, per se. Read the article properly before flying off on one, that’s my advice..
