Politico: Dark Enlightenment Has Ties To Steve Bannon
Still though, it is nice to see Neoreaction getting some greater exposure:
“The first weeks of the Trump presidency have brought as much focus on the White House’s chief strategist, Steve Bannon, as on the new president himself. But if Bannon has been the driving force behind the frenzy of activity in the White House, less attention has been paid to the network of political philosophers who have shaped his thinking and who now enjoy a direct line to the White House.
They are not mainstream thinkers, but their writings help to explain the commotion that has defined the Trump administration’s early days. They include a Lebanese-American author known for his theories about hard-to-predict events; an obscure Silicon Valley computer scientist whose online political tracts herald a “Dark Enlightenment”; and a former Wall Street executive who urged Donald Trump’s election in anonymous manifestos by likening the trajectory of the country to that of a hijacked airplane—and who now works for the National Security Council. …”
I’m pro-Dark Enlightenment.
If I was completely unethical, I would troll the media for the lulz.
I would be like, yes, white supremacists really are running the country. Steve Bannon really is a white supremacist. The South really is in charge now. It would be fun to attempt to troll California into seceding from the United States. That would be the greatest troll of all time.
I would never do that though. It goes against my values to intentionally mislead people. The Alt-Right is about telling the truth, having fun and smashing taboos. The fake news Lügenpresse are the ones who create false narratives (i.e., Iraq has WMD, Russians are getting us, white supremacy prevents blacks from excelling in SAT math scores) in order to bamboozle the public.
