  • Nick Fuentes on Piers Morgan: Why Fuentes Appeals to Young Men
    Dec 12 2025

    In his recent interview with Piers Morgan, Nick Fuentes admitted to being a “27-year-old virgin,” doubled down on his praise for Hitler, and called for the end of women’s voting rights. But is this just trolling, or something more calculated? anyway i try to deconstruct this one. understand what has brought us to a guy like Nick Fuentes having cultural influence. so yeah...trying to see if i want to do a more developed take on this topic....

  • The pornography of postmodern conservatism
    Oct 10 2025

    We’re living in a time when politics has become pornographic…pure stimulus, pure confirmation bias, pure ideology. The postmodern conservative doesn’t seek truth; they seek arousal through outrage. Their politics perform themselves before they think themselves, cycling through prepackaged narratives that gratify resentment the way pornography gratifies fantasy or narrative…mechanically, repetitively, without reflection.

    The Charlie Kirk incident made this visible…the narrative was already written before the facts even emerged. The algorithmic priests of the right sermonized their version of reality…identity reaffirmed, outrage consumed, truth irrelevant.

    What defines postmodern conservatism? It isn’t coherence but performance…it’s fragmented pastiche identities held together by resentment and disavowal. They know it’s false but act as if it’s true. Their victimhood is the last refuge of meaning in a world hollowed out by capitalism and digital simulation. When truth becomes unbearable, narrative becomes narcotic. Postmodern conservatism is that addiction…the refusal to wake up from the simulated narrative they’ve been fed with algorithms.

    Stay curious.
