This lecture explores the emergence of the American New Right – a diffuse and provocative intellectual tendency gaining visibility in the wake of the populist revolts of 2016. Focusing on figures like Patrick Deneen and Curtis Yarvin, it examines their critiques of liberalism, meritocracy, and democracy, as well as their visions of authority, order, and political renewal. While often dismissed as marginal or extreme, these thinkers articulate deeper dissatisfactions with modernity, autonomy, and the liberal elite consensus. The talk considers whether their ideas offer a serious response to the current political malaise – or reflect a more inward-looking, aristocratic impulse seeking meaning in a post-liberal age.

How Smart is the MAGA Intelligentsia? The Professors, Philosophers, and Trolls who Transformed Rage into a Winning Political Ideology

So how smart is the MAGA intelligentsia? According to Laura K. Field — a longtime observer of the American right and author of Furious Minds — the making of the new right has less to do with original intelligence than with timing and marketing. What the professors, philosophers, and trolls of this movement have done so effectively, Field argues, is transform rage into a winning political coalition. It's not that figures like Patrick Deneen, Adrian Vermuele, Peter Thiel or J.D. Vance are saying anything particularly original; it's that the way they're saying it feels new — sharper, more performative, more attuned to grievance. These men — and they are almost all men — have learned to ride a wave of popular anger against every form of traditional authority. Their rage, Field suggests, is what's truly revolutionary. Their ideas - particularly those of online influencers like Stone Age Pervert and Curtis Yarvin - are not.1. “We underestimate them at our peril.”The MAGA intelligentsia aren't just provocateurs. Field insists that figures like Patrick Deneen and Adrian Vermeule are serious scholars whose anti-liberal philosophies are shaping the intellectual spine of Trump-era conservatism.2. “Their anger is their originality.”Rage is the organizing principle. The MAGA thinkers' ideas are recycled, Field says, but their fury and performance—how they say things—are what make the movement feel new.3. “It's a man's movement.”Misogyny sits at the center of the new right. From Bronze Age Pervert to J.D. Vance, Field sees a backlash against feminism and modern gender equality that defines the movement's identity.4. “They've turned politics into theater.”Thinking as performance. The new right blurs intellect and spectacle, borrowing the techniques of influencers, culture warriors, and trolls to make outrage go viral.5. “Liberals need conviction, not counter-rage.”Fury can't fix democracy. Field argues that progressives must rediscover how to talk about freedom, meaning, and the common good—without imitating the anger they oppose.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/sources-say-bay-area-house-party [previously in series: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7] Something is off about this Bay Area House Party. There are . . . women. “I've never seen a gender balance like this in the Bay Area,” you tell your host Chris. “Is this one of those fabled ratio parties?” “No - have you heard of curtfishing? It's the new male dating trend. You say in your Bumble profile that you're a member of the Dissident Right who often attends parties with Curtis Yarvin. Then female journos ask you out in the hopes that you'll bring them along and they can turn it into an article.” “What happens when they realize Curtis Yarvin isn't at the party?” “Oh, everyone pools their money and hires someone to pretend to be Curtis. You can just do things. Today it's Ramchandra.” You follow his gaze, and there is Ramchandra, hair greased back, wearing a leather jacket, surrounded by a crowd of young women. “When I say I'm against furries,” he's explaining, staccato, at 120 wpm, “I mean the sort of captured furries you get under the post-Warren-G-Harding liberal order, the ones getting the fat checks from the Armenians at Harvard and the Department of Energy. I love real furries, the kind you would have found in 1920s New Mexico eating crocodile steaks with Baron von Ungern-Sternberg! Some of my best friends are furries, as de Broglie-Bohm and my sainted mother used to say! Just watch out for the Kikuyu, that's my advice! Hahahahahaha!” Some of the women are taking notes. “But enough about me. When I was seventeen, I spent seven weeks in Bensonhurst - that's in the Rotten Apple, in case you can't tell your Nepalis from your Neapolitans. A dear uncle of mine, after whom I was named…” “Ramchandra is pretty good,” you admit. “Still, if it were me I would have gone with a white guy.” “It's fine,” says Chris. “Curtis describes himself as a mischling, and none of the journos know what that means.” Ramchandra is still talking. “Of course, strawberries have only been strawberries since after the Kronstadt Rebellion. Before that, strawberries were just pears. You had to get them hand-painted red by Gypsies, if you can believe that. Gypsies! So if you hear someone from west of Pennsylvania Avenue mention ‘strawberries', that's what we in the business call il significanto.” “I admit he has talent,“ you say. “But this curtfishing thing - surely at some point your date realizes that you're not actually a high-status yet problematic bad boy who can further her career just by existing, and then she ghosts you, right?” “That's every date in San Francisco. But when you curtfish, sometimes she comps your meal from her expense account. It's a strict Pareto improvement!” After some thought, you agree this is a great strategy with no downsides, maybe the biggest innovation in dating since the invention of alcohol. Having failed to bring your own journo to the party, you look for one who seems unattached. You catch the eye of a blonde woman who introduces herself as Gabrielle, and you try to give her the least autistic “Hello” of which you are capable.

Președintele american Donald Trump și-a prezentat planul pentru pace în Fîșia Gaza, susținut de premierul israelian Benjamin Netanyahu și salutat atît de lideri europeni, cît și de lideri din Orientul Mijlociu. Dar ce șanse are acest plan să fie transpus în realitate și războiul din Gaza să înceteze? Am întrebat-o pe Raluca Alexandrescu, politolog, conf. dr. la Facultatea de Științe Politice a Universității din București.Raluca Alexandrescu: „Din ce spun cunoscătorii acestei regiuni şi ai problematicilor legate de conflict, există două scenarii. Unul complet pesimist, extrem de sceptic în legătură cu şansele de izbîndă ale acestui plan. Şi mai există o parte a acestor specialişti care consideră că sînt anumite şanse de a avansa şi că trebuie să privim partea plină a paharului, în contextul în care acest plan are măcar meritul de a fi pus pe masă un set de prime propuneri în direcţia unei deblocării a acestei situaţii teribile care durează de prea mult timp. (...) Ce avem aici este un text extrem de stufos, extrem de complex, care propune tot felul de structuri şi suprastructuri şi, în plus, pare că nu ia în considerare un proiect real de tranziţie politică, democratică.  E un proiect mai degrabă îndreptat în direcţia unei entităţi de tip corporatist. Nu se mai propune evacuarea completă a populaţiei din Gaza, ceea ce făcea Donald Trump propunînd riviera Gaza, în februarie anul acesta, dar, pe de altă parte, sînt foarte multe elemente care indică menţinerea unor idei din planul acela şi mai ales dintr-un plan anterior, pe care unul dintre ideologii regimului Trump, Curtis Yarvin, îl propusese cu multă vreme înainte, imediat după atacul din 7 octombrie, sub numele foarte sugestiv de Gaza Inc. Şi asta ridică semne de întrebare cu privire la succesul pe care poate să-l aibă un asemena plan care pare a fi orientat spre afaceri şi spre monetizarea planului de tranziţie.”Apasă PLAY pentru a asculta interviul integral!O emisiune de Adela Greceanu și Matei MartinUn produs Radio România Cultural

Peter Thiel of Palantir is hosting a lecture series on the Antichrist in San Francisco between September 15 and October 6, 2025. Entirely secretive, the talk is put on by Acts 17 Collective, referring to the Biblical book of Acts wherein we read about how the divine being is not like material things (gold and silver) but instead something far more valuable. Is this ironic or intentional? Many see this as the fulfillment of prophecy, but perhaps it is the fulfilling of pop-culture prophecy instead. Perhaps technocrats are playing and preying on 4 billion Christians and Muslims to run a scenario designed to strip away faith in the divine and parlay it into technology. A satirizing of eschatology? The tech-bros believe that God messed up and man can fix it by replacing organic creation with synthetics. Everlasting life can be achieved through gold and silver (material means) which will extinguish the real spiritual nature of mankind - the true gold that is ‘Christ' consciousness - and replace it with antichrist consciousness. In the process, vampires like Thiel will feed on your corpse. True eternal life begins with recognizing death and choosing to make the world a better place anyways rather than becoming a nihilist. It is the choice of Christ consciousness and of faith in what lies beyond. One often overlooked detail of the technocracy is the apparent obsession with homosexuality, transgenderism, and Judaism. Consider the gay technocrats of Thiel, Yuval Harari, Sam Altman, and the debated sexuality of Alex Karp. All but Thiel are also Jewish, as is Larry Ellison and Curtis Yarvin, the man giving JD Vance many of his philosophical ideas. In fact, Thiel and Yarvin created Vance and influence him through their Dark Enlightenment philosophy, which wants to replace governments with a techno-monarchy equivalent to the Christian concept of a NWO. Are their Homosexual practices recycling sexual energy to create synthetic life? Homosexuality is also a rejection of God's creation, which is why so many Jews embrace not just homosexuality but the entirety of LGBTQ. People like Sam Altman have placed the hexagram into his ChatGPT logo while he has unveiled an ORB device that is a machine which confirms your humanity. We need only recall Matthew 26 where the high priest Pharisees accuse Jesus of being the Son of God to which Jesus rejects such a notion and lectures them on the end of their monopoly over salvation. The tech-bros are the modern pharisees and they not only reject Christ, but intend to convince his followers to fight a Holy War, and then offer salvation from the destruction with their vampiric machines. Alex Karp has promised a 3-front war is coming and Larry Ellison did say that most of the advanced AI technology was coming from Herzliya Israel, not Silicon Valley, which would make it a brother to transgenderism which finds its home in Tel Aviv. If all of this is slightly more true then it means Israel is the beast and the Balfour Declaration of 1917 was the dragon giving power unto the same. This is probably why the Trump administration has given military roles to the tech-bros and held high-profile dinners for Silicon Valley technocrats who he is himself a slave too. Hence the cutting of his right ear as a result of an assassination attempt, which Biblically speaks to the servant of the high priest, which in the Church of Satan is MAGA.*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Tucker Carlson interviewing on the front lawn of a building that looks like it's built from shadows, portals opening and disappearing, and the fear that something big is coming. JD is called an empty vessel, a puppet waiting to be filled by powers we don't see It's not all doom.

MAGA Voters Aren't Stupid: That's Why They Don't Care What Right-Wing Podcasters Think

What's the matter with America? We've been told for years about the dumb working class MAGA voter. That they are exploited by Trump, that their interests are the reverse of a self-interested Republican cultural or economic elite. But according to the iconoclastic Tablet magazine contributor Michael Lind, we've got it the wrong way around. MAGA Voters are anything but stupid, he argues. That's why they don't care what dissenting podcasters like Tucker Carlson think. Instead, they're making rational choices based on their material interests, not blindly following con-celebs like Carlson, Laura Loomer or Curtis Yarvin. The real Trump coalition consists of two groups that pundits consistently misunderstand: reliable Republican voters who will support any GOP presidential nominee, and more crucially, swing voters in swing states. Rather than following the latest ideological dramas between right-wing influencers, these supposedly swing-voting “low-information voters” are making practical decisions about their lives. So actually, Lind implies, echoing other contrarian American populists like Thomas Frank, there's nothing the matter with a United States that somebody representing the class interests of ordinary Americans couldn't fix. 1. Right-Wing Influencers Have Zero Real Political Power Podcasters like Tucker Carlson, Laura Loomer, and Curtis Yarvin may dominate online political discourse, but they have "next to no influence on actual policy." When they turn against Trump, there are no electoral consequences because they don't command actual voter armies—just online audiences.2. MAGA Voters Are Making Rational Economic Calculations The "low-information" swing voters who decide elections aren't following ideological media rabbit holes. They're high school or some-college educated people making practical decisions about their material interests, not consuming political content or caring about intellectual debates among conservative influencers.3. America Is Experiencing a Class War Between Managers and Everyone Else The real divide isn't left vs. right but between a highly credentialed "managerial elite" who control large institutions and an unlikely coalition of working-class voters and outsider entrepreneurs (like Silicon Valley founders) who resent bureaucratic control.4. Trump Rebuilt FDR's Coalition for the Republican Party Through a complete partisan realignment, Trump assembled the same geographic and demographic base that supported Democrats from Andrew Jackson through LBJ—while today's Democratic Party represents the Northeastern establishment that Republicans used to champion.5. The Solution Requires Rebuilding Civil Society, Not Better Politicians America's crisis stems from over-centralization and the collapse of intermediate institutions like unions, local political parties, and churches. Real change requires "democratic pluralism"—giving ordinary people power between elections through rebuilt grassroots organizations, not just voting for better candidates every few years.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Jaws of Justice Radio investigates how we can achieve justice from a system of laws deeply rooted in economic, social and political inequality.  We want to dispel misconceptions created by the news and entertainment industry, politicians and our educational system. We hope you will listen. Fascism means many things but among its many noxious characteristics is Racism and Nationalism.  Today we will hear a talk by Devin Burghart, Executive Director of the Institute for Research and Education on Human Rights (IREHR).  Devin spoke by Zoom to people gathered for a Tuesday Teach-In on July 22, 2025. https://irehr.org/ Since 1983, IREHR has served as a social justice organization dedicated to standing against bigotry and defending democracy and human rights. They unmask movements, organizations, and individuals that threaten democracy and human rights. They support movements advancing human rights. They use investigative research and strategic organizing to counter racism, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, nativism, homophobia, and other forms of bigotry. Devin Burghart gave a frightening history of white supremacy terrorism in this country. Burghart traces the current strain of bigotry and hatred evident in parts of MAGA back to earlier movements including Asiatic Exclusion League of 1907, home and church bombings of civil rights activists of the 1960s, the anti-immigrant movement of the 1970s, the emergence of the Tea Party, and the current day neo reactionary, anarcho-libertarian "tech bros", i.e., Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, Alex Carp, and Curtis Yarvin. “From Margins to Mainstream” - How the racist right has grown in power and influence presented by Devin Burghart, Executive Director Institute for Research and Education in Human Rights. On Jaws of Justice, we examine how to find justice in our society.  Justice will not be served until those who are unaffected are as outraged as those who are.

Stel je een wereld voor waarin het kapitalisme ongehinderd zijn eigen koers vaart, de mens slechts een biologisch opzetje is en de eindbestemming een door computers gecodeerde techno-samenleving. Dit is het tech-utopisme van de Amerikaanse blogger Nick Land en de Britse filosoof Curtis Yarvin. Zij vormen de kern van het accelerationisme: een hypertechnologische ideologie uit Silicon Valley die stelt dat we het kapitalisme moeten versnellen om een post-menselijke eindfase te bereiken. Op merkwaardige wijze raakte de stroming verbonden met de MAGA-populisten, door een gedeelde fascinatie voor eindtijddenken en mystieke toekomstfantasieën. Hoe is het mogelijk dat deze obscure denkers ineens in de invloedssfeer van het Witte Huis terecht zijn gekomen? Wat verbindt de Silicon-Valley-miljardairs met de MAGA-populist? Hoe vindt een futuristische, post-humanistische filosofie raakvlakken met de conservatieve Amerikaan? Deze week gaat Kees van den Bosch in gesprek met Joris Melman over de opkomst van het accelerationisme, de ‘Dark Enlightenment’ en de grote invloed van de Silicon Valley-ondernemers op het Witte Huis.

Adina shares her experience moving from enthusiasm to disillusionment — from Berlin meetups to Urbit Assembly, to witnessing the project lean into neo-colonial “exit” politics.We also get into the reactionary politics inside the Urbit community, the recent leadership coup pitting long-time developers against Yarvin and his backers, and how this drama unexpectedly created a demand for “voice” in a system designed entirely around “exit.” Links:User Error — Adina's monthly tech column for Spike Art MagazineThe Rise and Fall of Urbit — Adina's piece in Compact MagAdina on InstagramThis episode is sponsored by NYM, the world's most private VPN.

It may be the dog days of summer, but the art world doesn't take a break, and there's plenty to talk about for our monthly roundup episode, where we parse and analyze the biggest headlines shaping the art world and industry. In this episode, we take a look at what is going on in the art scenes across London, New York, and Berlin, including some of the biennials going on this summer. Then, we get into the headlines: including a dive into a long-gestating biopic by actor Johnny Depp, called Modì: Three Days on the Wing of Madness. The new film is Depp's first directorial effort in nearly three decades, and it dramatizes 72 chaotic hours in the artist Amedeo Modigliani's life as he chases around early 20th-century Paris with artists Chaim Soutine and Maurice Utrillo. We also talk about Depp's new art drop. Is it all a rebranding exercise? After that, we break down the intrigue swirling around the U.S. pavilion for next year's Venice Biennale and what it might reveal about American cultural diplomacy in 2025. Within that fold, we take stock of a proposal from controversy-loving artist Andres Serrano and another idea from far-right American blogger Curtis Yarvin. Last but not least, we analyze the Labubu mania, a craze for these mischievous little dolls that has finally made its way into the art world and into the market. National art critic Ben Davis and our editor-in-chief, Naomi Rea joined senior editor Kate Brown on the podcast to talk about it all.

Subscribe to one of the paid tiers on the PPM Patreon to access "AmerIsraeli Yarvin of Lead" in its entirety: patreon.com/ParaPowerMappingPicking our AmerIsraeli Years of Lead & PayPal Mafia Occupied Gov't investigation back up, we begin by synopsizing some of the basics of Curtis Yarvin's Neoreactionary (NRx) politics. We then move into an incomplete parapower mapping of his influence on the current Trump administration and their PayPal Mafia benefactors, illustrating how Elon's DOGE is the direct successor of Yarvin's RAGE concept. We detail how his Thiel backed distributed message board software Urbit is basically a repackaging of Usenet. We then shift gears into into the ironic psychodrama of Yarvin's advocacy for a government bureaucracy-purging coup by virtue of his father Herbert's multi-decade "Foreign Service" career. This brings us to one of the primary fulcrums of this investigation, the reasonable-but-thus-far unverifiable suspicion that Herbert Yarvin may have actually been a CIA officer/agent or analyst under diplomatic cover, and the reality that, either way, Curtis Yarvin is a kind of spooky deep state nepo-baby, context that should reorient perspectives when it comes to his pseud career as a theorist of “Cathedral” disruption.We then gloss some evidence supporting Herbert-Yarvin-as-Company-man by way of his Brown University Philosophy program peer Arnold Cusmariu, who worked as an philosophical analyst for the agency for more than 3 decades, much of which overlapped with Yarvin's Foreign Service career. We layout how a PoliSci faculty member named Lyman Kirkpatrick, who happened to be former top brass at the CIA and a onetime DCI hopeful, attempted to recruit Arnold Cusmariu in the ‘70s, showing that there is a high probability that Curtis Yarvin's Dad and Arnold knew each other by way of their shared thesis faculty advisor Ernest Sosa, increasing the chances they may have been part of the same Company cohort (we also hint at the void of evidence supporting Curtis' Mom's purported State career, which could be suspicious in its own right).We then discuss how both Curtis and his brother Norman were “gifted & talented” students and the recipients of scholarships from the State Department and that Curtis even partook in this groundbreaking longitudinal Study of Mathematically Precocious Youth at Johns Hopkins as a preteen, which was administered by the Godfather of the nationwide gifted ed programs of the late ‘80s, ‘90s, and early ‘00s... Which is intriguing considering some of Yarvin's fellow alumni Precocious Math study alumni are Epstein affiliate Sergey Brin (2 months younger than Curtis) and Mark Zuckerberg. We also examine his child prodigy escapades through the prism of online rumors that GATE was basically a covert CIA mind control talent search. We draw some loose deep politics comparisons to figures like Michael Riconosciuto, Ted Kaczynski, Jack Sarfatti, and the strategy of tension theorists.

01:04:11 – 01:05:42News Sites Locking Content to Fight AI ScrapingPublishers are walling off content behind paywalls to prevent AI models from scraping and repackaging their work. The tension between tech platforms and media outlets is framed as a struggle over fair compensation for content creation. 01:08:03 – 01:09:45Curtis Yarvin's Influence on Musk's America PartyElon Musk's consultation with Curtis Yarvin, a monarchist and critic of democracy, raises concerns about the ideological direction of his proposed third party. The segment critiques Yarvin's technocratic vision and Silicon Valley's shift toward authoritarian models. 01:24:38 – 01:25:58Grok AI Incident Escalates Concerns Over Speech ControlGrok's outburst, including racist and anti-Semitic remarks, leads to calls for stronger controls. The segment criticizes both the AI's behavior and the push to implement government-regulated speech enforcement through tech platforms. 01:29:03 – 01:30:39Free Speech vs. Censorship in the Age of AICritique is leveled at efforts to censor “hate speech” on platforms like X, arguing that free speech must include the right to offend. Attempts to bubble-wrap users from uncomfortable opinions are viewed as infantilizing and authoritarian. 01:58:36 – 02:07:12Trump's ‘Perfect War' Concept and Fallout Over Iran StrikeA commentary unpacks Trump's framing of the Iran attack as a theatrical “perfect war” and critiques his failure to fulfill promises on immigration, ending wars, and releasing Epstein files. The analysis argues the bombing strategy backfired by strengthening Iran internally and diminishing trust in U.S. diplomacy. 02:21:25 – 02:24:15MAGA Base Turns on Trump Over Epstein File Cover-UpMAGA supporters express betrayal after the DOJ denies Epstein kept a client list. Promised disclosures are abandoned, and visual symbols like burning MAGA hats signal backlash from the base. 02:29:33 – 02:31:30Memo Denies Epstein Blackmail Ring as Evidence DisappearsThe DOJ and FBI release a memo asserting no blackmail network existed, despite contradictions from earlier officials. A key minute of surveillance footage is missing, triggering renewed accusations of destruction of evidence. 02:34:48 – 02:39:54MAGA Loyalty Fractures Over Trump's Foreign Policy and Epstein HandlingTony Arterburn and others describe disillusionment in the MAGA base, citing Trump's support for Israel, failed vaccine policies, and Epstein-related secrecy. The sentiment grows that Trump supporters were misled and must reset their political expectations. 02:45:30 – 02:50:06U.S. Dollar Collapse, Global De-Dollarization, and BRICS ShiftThe conversation highlights the dollar's record decline and the rise of BRICS as a competing financial system. The segment argues the U.S. has lost global economic trust and can no longer use financial leverage as in the post-WWII era. 03:12:32 – 03:26:57Epstein Victim Speaks Out, Public Furious at Cover-UpA woman identifying as an Epstein victim accuses the U.S. government and Trump of betrayal after years of broken promises to release client information.

This week, Scott sat down with Lawfare Senior Editors Molly Reynolds and Quinta Jurecic, and Contributing Editor Chris Mirasola, to focus on the week's big domestic news, including:“Drama Majors, Meet Major Drama.” In the glittering city of Los Angeles, the Trump administration has taken the dramatic step of calling up the California National Guard and deploying them alongside active duty Marines to secure federal personnel and facilities, specifically against protestors demonstrating against the Trump administration's draconian immigration policies. Is this the beginning of a broader threat to the constitutional order, as some of Trump's critics say it is? And what should we make of President Trump's suggestion that he may yet invoke the controversial Insurrection Act?“Precision Rescission, What's Your Mission?” The Trump administration has asked Congress to formally rescind a slice of the federal spending it has been withholding since entering office, specifically relating to foreign assistance and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting—a request the House seems poised to move on this week. How likely is it that Congress will agree to the cut in funds? And what will the implications be for relevant legal challenges and Trump's broader agenda?“There and Back Again.” After an unexpected journey and epic delays on the part of the government, the Trump administration has finally repatriated Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the man who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador—only to charge him with human trafficking and other federal crimes in Tennessee. How serious are the charges against him? And is this likely to be a win or loss for the administration's broader immigration agenda?In object lessons, Molly shared a ranking of New York mayoral candidates by their bagel orders—and whose order is so bad, it's a schmear on their very New Yorker-ness. Quinta recommends Ava Kofman's profile of Curtis Yarvin in the New Yorker as a masterclass in the art of meticulous evisceration. Scott introduced his 4-year-old to his old Tintin books by Hergé—because it's never too early to get into the drawbacks of colonialism.

They discuss Yarvin's desire to end American democracy by installing a monarch, whether his provocations can be seen as trolling, and how his writings have found a receptive audience among conservative politicians and the tech élite. “Obviously, Yarvin's influence on the right is great, and maybe can't be overstated,” Kofman says. “But, at the same time, a lot of these ideas he's getting from having conversations with powerful people in Silicon Valley and with powerful people in Washington.”This week's reading: “Curtis Yarvin's Plot Against America,” by Ava Kofman “Democracy Wins a Referendum in South Korea,” by E.
