At this point, most readers of this site are well acquainted with the work of David Hines. The prolific tweeter and sometimes writer who has usefully documented the minutiae of the organization and history of various left-wing activist groups in the United States.
Hines’ latest at TAC is a useful analysis of the January 6th protest-riot on Capitol Hill. But if you’ve read one Hines piece you’ve read them all. The analysis is almost always the same: in short, Leftist dissident groups are well organized, well lawyered and only engage in direct actions in which all reasonable contingencies have already been planned for. Unsurprisingly, the Right’s dissidents are the complete opposite of this: completely unorganized, naive about even the most basic opec (still using discord, not concealing their identities to own the libs, etc.), utterly unlawyered and naively trusting of federal law enforcement.
All of this is stupidly obvious and has been for years. Still Hines’ detailed analysis of it is useful, particularly as an explainer for Right-Wing boomers (who frequently need to have the stupidly obvious explained to them). The problem however is that Hines’ solution (to have Right wing dissidents mimic these tactics) is not a particularly good one, at least not at the current time.
The reason it is a bad idea, however, is not the classic critique of Right Wing activism offered by the likes of Curtis Yarvin. Curtis, though an extremely nice guy and delightful dinner guest, is frequently wrong. His critique of Right Wing activism, falls under this ‘frequently wrong’ category which he often falls into. I’m not going to argue against it at length here, as this is not my purpose in this essay. I will simply assert that it is not the case that activism is always bound to fail unless it is a transparent cat’s paw of a powerful and well monied interest. Certainly this can work (as BLM’s hero treatment from the media this summer showed), and it’s common sense to cultivate as many powerful allies as possible, but the initial lack of many of these things doesn’t necessarily prevent a movement from achieving ultimate victory. Let’s just say that (although this statement can obviously be debated at greater length) in the 50’s an 60’s J. Edgar Hoover and much of the U.S. establishment were not exactly fans of the Left, yet they ultimately prevailed in the end anyway.
The actual reason the activist tactics Hines details probably can’t work (at least at scale) for most Right wing dissidents is a sociological one. Namely because the Left has something the Right doesn’t: warrior monks.
Now obviously the Left doesn’t literally have armies of bow staff twirling celibates in long robes leading the charge, but spiritually they do.
Christianity and Buddhism are the religions with the most well developed forms of monasticism and this attribute played a key role in helping the rapid spread of both religions (especially the former’s).
The common stereotypes of the Christian hermit fighting off inner temptation alone in a desert cave or the the Buddhist acolyte ascending to the heights of quiet enlightenment on some deserted Himalayan mountaintop both have elements of truth in them they are far from the whole story.
Though the role of monks obviously varied, depending on the time and tradition in question, a primary function they played were as shock troops, a militant and courageous vanguard willing to take the greatest risks against the longest odds to advance the interests of their faiths.
This included not only participation in actual warfare, as was famously done both by crusading Christian monks and Buddhist ones during the Medieval period, but also as vanguard missionaries to extremely hostile or otherwise utterly desolate shit holes (6th Century Ireland for example) or to wage decades and centuries long wars of extermination against rival sects. Because they were celibate and had sworn off worldly possessions these men possessed a freedom which was second to none, they literally had nothing to lose, and this is what gave them their immense power. And it was this power which enabled these monks to ultimately subjugate large swaths of the world for their faiths.
Now obviously the comparison between a crusading celibate of the 13th century Catholic church and a blue haired transvestite activist from Berkley isn’t one for one, but the fact is that, in spite of their obvious differences, both serve to fill the same ideological niche within their respective faiths/ideologies: as the vanguard.
The activists who are the actual organizers of the left wing actions Hines’ describes are the tip of the spear (or perhaps in this case, the “tip of the dildo”) of modern liberalism. They, by and large, aren’t weekend warriors or soccer moms who got radicalized by facebook memes but rather professional and committed ideologies who have been doing this for years.
While they certainly aren’t celibate in the traditional sense of the term, they also usually don’t go home to the wife and kids at night either. Fucking, for them is actually encouraged, but not the procreative kind, or if that kind does accidentally happen a quick trip to the butcher shop usually alleviates any unwanted consequences associated with it.
As far as compensation goes, yes it is true that certain members of the leftist activist class (the ones who receive most of the attention) can be well paid and quite wealthy. These people are usually the heads of NGO’s, Nonprofits or other activist groups, many of whom are also Ivy League educated and sometimes scions of famous liberal families.
But claiming that because of this that therefore most of these people are ultimately just grifters in it for the money would be wrong. The same thing as claiming that, because a handful of Catholic Bishops in the Middle Ages were vast landowners the motivation of the average monk was therefore primarily monetary.
In reality the average liberal activist lives a relatively meager existence, usually paying exorbitant rents for a tiny apartment in large blue cities that are split among roommates while being employed in a poorly paid gig as an adjunct professor, media dipshit or mid level employee of a non-profit. Their only real rewards are social: the praise and respect they get from their liberal peers when they inform them that they work for a non-profit pushing to ensure 8-year-old boys in Macedonia can have their dicks snipped off at affordable rate, as well as the personal satisfaction of knowing they are fighting the good fight for a worthy cause and thus “on the right side of history.”
And it is these poorly paid, almost homeless bohemian warrior monks who make up the vanguard of the Left which puts on the actions Hines’ is so rightfully impressed by.
The problem is that the Right just doesn’t have this, and potentially never will, because its ideology simply doesn’t allow for it.
The Right in the United States is primarily a (for lack of a better term) petty bourgeoise movement. Simply put, it is comprised of an elite of fantastically wealthy donors and a voter and activist base comprised primarily of small business owners and other members of the Upper Middle and Middle Class. This group of people is characterized by a mindset which favors practicality, lionizes family formation, and therefore tends to be generally quite materialistic in its outlook (there is a reason one of Trump’s main achievements was cutting taxes for upper income brackets).
The practical outcome of this worldview is the creation of a Right-wing ecosystem without a meaningful vanguard, along with a tendency to produce shameless grifters. The ‘grifter’ as we have come to know it, in reality is usually a failed Right Wing activist. Essentially someone who likely started off quite idealistic but eventually was forced to cave to the pressure created by the materialistic ideology of D.C. conservatism in which net worth is frequently used as a stand in for personal value and thus was pressured into grifting to maintain a respectable net worth (or at least the illusion of one).
Simply put, until the right figures out a way to produce, maintain, and reward a class of activist warrior monks it will never be able to competently pull off the kinds of direct actions Hines documents so well.

I think this is wrong on first premises. The left are the ones that have cultural dominance, and no matter the internal culture of the right, achieving right wing ideals in the current cultural environment is not only difficult, it is growing more and more illegal by day. The atomized incel is more than just a meme. I know from experience. The reactionary right is fiercely Christian and largely anti-materialist. Many of our public figures are young and unmarried. They have little to lose. And even those who are married are more likely to consider their personal mission to be of more importance than their marriage. Your description applies more to the neocon boomer right and the Republicans on Capitol Hill, which have no future.
The truth really is as Moldbug describes. We don’t lack for idealogues, there’s simply no vector by which they can be effective. They have no institutional support, no resources, they get deplatformed off the internet, preventing them for calling for organization to begin with, and the judges put their thumbs on the scales when our guys go to court. We elect ourselves a president or a congressman and they get viciously attacked by Republican and Democrat alike, slandered by all but a few tiny alt publications and publicly supporting said person will not only get you fired, it will get you arrested on bogus “incitement of violence” or “election interference” charges.
And even were all of the above not a problem, we would then face the hurdle of most of the right wing constituency still operating in a left wing cultural framework. Consider the pro-life movement, for example. It’s a complete failure in political terms and was destined to be that way from the beginning because it doesn’t address the actual root cause of abortion legislation, which is the fact that women have the right to vote.

It is worth noting that Moldbug does not quite say that right-wing activism always fails (nod to Mark Yuray’s old Social Matter article), for he does point out an example where it worked, Weimar Germany. Right-wing paramilitaries and parties were free to speak as they wished, march as they wished, and kill members of the Socialist/Communist parties as they wished, because, just as in America today, the judiciary would look the other way. The difference being of course that those Weimar judges were right-wing while ours are left-wing.
That being said, Moldbug quickly goes on to say that this situation of genuine, right-wing capture of key institutions exists practically nowhere post-WWII, and so it is indeed completely pointless to engage in right-wing activism today.

David Hines is full of shit largely because he sees lefty tactics and strategy working and he conveniently ignores the full spectrum dominance of lefties in 99.9999% of institutions. When we don’t use their methods, we lose fast. When we do use their methods, we lose slow.
The most important thing you should know about David Hines are:
1. He can flee to Israel if SHTF via his ethnic heritage.
2. He can flee to Taiwan (and probably anywhere else with significant Sino populations) via his wife’s ethnicity and that of their child.
3. He lives in Los Angeles where he tweets like a 16 year old art hoe about movies – presumably with mouth fully open, Redditor style.
He has zero skin in the game, and as such his opinions are worth far less than if he were risking life and limb to help us.
Everyone has some good information, but he’s full of shit about anything outside his purview: movies, his career (which he probably only got through ethnic nepotism), and having plenty of free time to read lefty books. He’s not going to risk his own skin to save us, and with that in mind he doesn’t merit much consideration except for his criticisms.
The only way forward for us is massively parastizing lefty-held institutions in the hope that we can suck all the juice out of the behemoth and watch it fall before it kills us all, and before China nukes us after all the missile silo and sub commanders are replaces with sheboon FTM troons.

This is the same method that black men attempt to use against us, but they’ve run out of naive white girls and are stuck with fatties now that they’re whiny women and not the badasses that movies told us they were for decades.
We don’t need to formulate new methods; the methods our enemies use against us clearly work. We’re smarter than our enemies, so we can use them to greater effect than they do.

You can’t beat a collective as a movement of atomized individuals. Individual action (and individualism in general) is politically irrelevant by definition. Nothing is easier to subvert, intimidate than an individual without strong collective support from a family, church, party, union or other group.
I don’t see how a “mass” movement of atomized Tyler Durdens has better odds than an American Freikorps or White labor movement. The answer to deficient organization and lack of common ethos is not to nihilistically reject both. We simply have to get better at the necessary skills of opposition.

I agree, organizing is futile. To make a D&D analogy, the system is a dungeon in which we are stuck. The dungeon and it’s inhabitants are optimized to annihilate warriors, both loners and teams, and to redirect their efforts towards propaganda that keeps the mass of peasants also stuck inside it working to sustain it. The people (if you can call them that – let’s assume they’re drow or kobolds) who run the dungeon are a cabal of rogues, with a few bards and maybe a sorcerer/wizard/cleric doing the technical mass surveillance spell casting and keeping the trains running on time for the elites.
The Cabal wants you to take classes as a warrior. It needs you to do that. If you level up as a warrior, then you become a boogeyman to keep the peasants in line and justify intensifying crackdowns on the peasants (the Cabal loves nothing more than tormenting peasants).
If you try to take classes as a Wizard (tech guy off the reservation), Sorcerer, Cleric (religion in opposition to the Cabal), or Bard (Trump), the system will use all it’s resources to destroy you, and eventually they warriors they have brainwashed or who are members of the Cabal will imprison or kill you.
The one thing the Cabal doesn’t prepare for are Rogues. Take levels in Rogue – train your Bluff, Diplomacy, and Perception skills – and the Cabal can’t stop you so long as you use your skills in deception and subterfuge to deceive them the same way they deceive others. They spend decades lying to others. To master deception, you must lie to yourself and believe your own lies or have a deep well of sardonic loathing to draw on to morally justify it to yourself. Without that well, you lose the ability to detect lies from others, especially in regard to well-trained liars.
The Cabal has a single, systematic blind spot that they literally can’t account for, because to do so would erode their ability to control the peasants: they can’t easily detect deception, and when they detect it they can’t severely punish it without making one another nervous that they may be purged next. A wise Rogue, once busted, would muddy the waters as much as possible to make it seem like an internal purge.
Worse than that, they have rigged their control mechanisms so lying is easy and comfortable for anyone who wishes to use deception to defect against the peasants. Any incel man can claim he’s a woman, grow his hair out, dye it the color of a poisonous tropical frog, and from then on he is de facto allowed to bash feminist women whose defections ruined our society decades ago. If he somehow goes to prison, Biden’s executive order ensures that he does soft time in a woman’s prison and gets the full benefits of the Pussy Pass (early release being most relevant here).
The Cabal has optimized their dungeon for Rogues; you are a fool if you don’t train as a Rogue, or at least take a few levels in it before you pursue as a career as a Barbarian (street fighter), Fighter (soldier or cop), Ranger (innawoods), Cleric (religious leader), Wizard (technician or scientist), or Bard (charismatic entertainer).
If you go pure Rogue, or maybe take some prestige classes or archetypes, you get an easy, comfortable life… until food production in the dungeon collapses, then the knives come out. But you’re a Rogue after all, you should be prepared for that.
If all the peasants took classes in Rogue and lounged about like Mediterraneans (instead of working like Teutonics to keep the Cabal fed and happy), the whole thing would collapse in months. There nothing’s wrong with work provided the work benefits only you and yours. If it benefits someone else, it’s not work and you shouldn’t do it.
> Even you sound like a fed. I don’t trust anyone except the people I know IRL.
I’m making as many analogies as I can in the hope that one of them will stick. I’m not a fed, nor have I ever been one. You should never talk to the cops for any reason, and if you think I’m a cop then stop responding for your own sake.
You shouldn’t trust anyone except close family.

My point is, of course, while the right can’t live without the left, the left ALSO can’t live without the right. But the problem is, the left HAS the right. The right, always realistic always practical, gets up and goes to work, feeding the machine that lets the left thrive and be warrior monks. These hardworking people are trapped. The left, liberalism in general, can be viewed from one angle as a system designed to trap the right and free the left. The right works, by instinct, and, disconnected from any control, the left is free to live off the right. What is the right going to do? Not be conscientious? The sad fact is the right can work as hard as they want, but hard work does not equate to money, nor power. Because work itself is consuming. It takes over, obviously, and there is no time for hard working folk to do anything but work, and those who get wealthy aren’t the hard working, they’re the clever inventors and the manipulators. The right thinks they are simply working for themselves, but it’s rarely true. The economy feeds left wing people. Libertarians fill the top ranks, and libertarians are liberals.

This could have been boiled down far more effectively. The reason the Left wins is because the Left is a religion. The reason the Right loses is because the Right is just stuff. The Right doesn’t control institutions because institutions for the Middle Class don’t exist to be controlled. Government is a machine that is created to just run, it’s not a project to be directed and adjusted to produce the correct social results (that’s the Left’s mindset).
The Right does not exist in an ideological world. It’s simply part of the landscape, to be moved and altered depending on what the Left is building.
Don’t organize, don’t agitate, don’t subvert. Don’t waste your time: if you are a rightist, you have no goals and no future.
You want a future? Abandon politics and find religion. That’s what the Left has done. They succeed because they confess a core set of beliefs that grant their broad social phenomenon (to which conservatives belong, as liberals) indefectability (the truths are “self-evident”, from the inalienable right of obscenity to minority access to White people to HRT and abortion) infallibility (they are all on the “right side of history”, either because progress is ontologically good or because America is the Greatest Country on Earth), and authority (the social order, the soft totalitarian power, anathematizes anyone who so much as expresses meagre doubt of their self-evident Truths, and this anathema is enforced by all members of the mainstream regardless of self-identification as “left” or “right”).
Some of you will recognize what I have described here: the three attributes of the Catholic Church. In fact, if we were to say the entire Atlantic World is nothing but a mock-version of the theoretical Catholic Church, a sort of Anti-Church, this would not be inaccurate.
The catch is this: right and left both exist inside their Antichurch. The Left are the theologians, the monastics, the hierarchs. The Right are the folksy peasants who can’t read and draw their theology from pretty pictures and stained glass windows. The two come into conflict because they have developed opposing interpretations based on the material available to each. But they ultimately all confess One, Unholy, Universal, and Authoritative religion.
Unless you have an equally Unitary, equally Sacred, equally Catholic, and equally Authoritative (or better, Apostolic) religious atmosphere to super-saturate, permeate, and define everything you say, do, and are, you have no future that doesn’t involve Pedophiles and Trannies murdering and eating your children to the cheers of your fellow-citizens.

Well, you would have a warrior monk class of working class men, few of whom really labor to create families anymore because it’s practically impossible to afford, but the “Right” leadership simply always sells us out. If you have a good paying job a couple of times in your life it’s practically a miracle anymore. Build up a life with a little savings at a good job and that job will immediately be flushed down the toilet by either open borders Koch family funded immigration or by being shipped overseas. So it gets a little hard to keep supporting these guys. The Left has absolute fidelity to their base. Pro-abortion, Pro-gay, Pro-immigrant. Maximum benefits in cash, education, and social support. The Right will force you into destitution, destroy your job, and hand you a Bible.
Whoever is leading the Right should start by actually helping the right wing base for once rather than just using religion and patriotism to enrich themselves while stabbing everyone else in the back.
