CPAC hasn’t been covered too deeply on the Daily Stormer, probably because it is and always has been irrelevant.
The most important thing to take away from the event is the plasticity of conservatism and the type of submissive temperament attracted to its ideological orthodoxy (made up by Jews at think-tanks as they go along). Donald Trump – who was banned from the election year CPAC – gallantly returned with his conquering army of civic nationalist speakers, parsed into multiple events, most of them well-received. Trump’s message got an 86% approval rating in their famous straw poll, while the Jew David Marcus begged white people to keep the unwanted Bill Kristol in the tent.
Trump’s return was a wrecking ball, tearing down these conservative idols. He is scaling back interventionist (((neo-conservativism))) and attacking the unthinking adherence to the principles of free trade globalism. These two ideological poles were made sacrosanct in the “conservative movement” during the rise of (((Barry Goldwater))) and later under Ronald Reagan, who in turn took his governing cues from Brent Bozell and William F. Buckley – or, more accurately – the Jewish money pulling their strings.
A lot of the loser mental pathways on the “Right” were burrowed in by these clowns. For example, Mr. Buckley was the first conservative to blame “liberalism” when Jews Jewliciously do Jewy things.
On the economic front, Trump has been steadfast in protecting the social safety net, promising decent jobs, and taking the side of working people as a moral imperative against the destructive weeds of internationalism.
A Washington Post contributor, Jennifer Burns, whose manjaw is almost as unappealing as her objectivism, isn’t happy.
In electing Trump, the Republican base rejected laissez-faire economics in favor of economic nationalism. Full-fledged objectivism, the philosophy Rand invented, is an atheistic creed that calls for pure capitalism and a bare-bones government with no social spending on entitlement programs such as Social Security or Medicare. It’s never appeared on the national political scene without significant dilution. But there was plenty of diluted Rand on offer throughout the primary season: Marco Rubio, Rand Paul, Carly Fiorina and Ted Cruz all espoused traditional Republican nostrums about reducing the role of government to unleash American prosperity.
Yet none of this could match Trump’s full-throated roar to build a wall or his protectionist plans for American trade. In the general election, Trump sought out new voters and independents using arguments traditionally associated with Democrats: deploying the power of the state to protect workers and guarantee their livelihoods, even at the cost of trade agreements and long-standing international alliances. Trump’s economic promises electrified rural working-class voters the same way Bernie Sanders excited urban socialists. Where Rand’s influence has stood for years on the right for a hands-off approach to the economy, Trump’s “America first” platform contradicts this premise by assuming that government policies can and should deliberately shape economic growth, up to and including punishing specific corporations. Likewise, his promise to craft trade policy in support of the American worker is the exact opposite of Rand’s proclamation that “the essence of capitalism’s foreign policy is free trade.”
…
Now Rand is on the shelf, gathering dust with F.A. Hayek, Edmund Burke and other once-prominent conservative luminaries. It’s no longer possible to provoke the elders by going on about John Galt. Indeed, many of the elders have by now used Randian references to name their yachts, investment companies and foundations.
Instead, young insurgent conservatives talk about “race realism ,” argue that manipulated crime statistics mask growing social disorder and cast feminism as a plot against men. Instead of reading Rand, they take the “red pill”, indulging in an emergent internet counter-culture that reveals the principles of liberalism — rights, equality, tolerance — to be dangerous myths.…
Mixed in with Rand’s vituperative attacks on government was a defense of the individual’s rights in the face of a powerful state. This single-minded focus could yield surprising alignments, such as Rand’s opposition to drug laws and her support of legal abortion. And although liberals have always loved to hate her, over the next four years, they may come to miss her defense of individual autonomy and liberty. Ayn Rand is dead. Long live Ayn Rand!
So how did Libertarianism become so popular and then die so easily in the first place?
Libertarians come in two varieties: people who aren’t actual libertarians but want a politically correct way to disengage from multiculturalism (you saw a lot of this in Ron Paul ’08), and emotionally stunted nerds who believe running a successful lemonade stand will buy them babes and respect. The first were easily won over by Trump, while the numerically inferior latter lodged a “protest vote” for Gary Johnson’s Marijuana Party.
Antifa have never attacked a Libertarian rally. That is because most people will never support actual unrestricted capitalism or hyper-individualism, including those who say “get your socialist hands off my Medicare.” It’s not hard for leftists to defeat these people in a political debate. When it comes to a battle of wits, the average Leftist is as disarmed as a New York City Quaker. The only people they can beat are comic book villains scripted to lose, like Paul Ryan. Now Judeo-Leftists have no recourse except to engage in violence to try and close the spigot of winning ideas (they’ll see where that takes them soon enough).
What Ms. Burns is lamenting here is that now real Republicans (that’s us) can win hearts and minds (and votes) by actually representing the majority. For the past 10 years, there have been a million reasons for white workers to vote against the GOP, which is why the Democrats kept getting votes from people they openly resent. Trump was able to demolish the “blue wall” in the Midwest because Trump met working and middle class white people half-way to full-circle.
As an aside about (((Rand))) herself, it’s true that she perceived Western countries as overgrown Las Vegas free for all lands of novelty where you should be allowed to shoot 7-Eleven heroin and publicly urinate while taking candy from a baby. That’s the depth and breadth of what her Weltanschauung – which has only been proven to succeed in her science fiction novels – amounts to.
But that didn’t stop Rand from spending the other half of her public career fanatically advocating for more American tax dollars to go to Israel: a racial collectivist nation that attacks individualism and has a planned, socialist economy.
Maybe, just maybe Jennifer, white people want respect and civic engagement in our countries too. Maybe we want our government to serve and protect its citizens. We built this land collectively, it’s time those Jews and plutocrats benefiting from what we achieved as a nation either show respect, or get the hell out.
