What do the White Nationalists Want?

I'm going to find the responses to this article from the venerable National Review interesting:

I should be in bed... but it's one of those days...

What does an angry white boy want? The fact that they get together to play dress-up — to engage in a large and sometimes murderous game of cowboys and Indians — may give us our answer. They want to be someone other than who they are. That’s the great irony of identity politics: They seek identity in the tribe because they are failed individuals. They are a chain composed exclusively of weak links. What they are engaged in isn’t politics, but theater: play-acting in the hopes of achieving catharsis. Their online personas — knights, Vikings, reincarnations of Charles Martel — will be familiar enough to anybody with a Dungeons and Dragons nerd in his life. But sometimes, role-playing around a card table isn’t enough: Sometimes, you need a stage and an audience. In the theater, actors and audience both can forget ourselves for an hour or two. Under the soft glow of the tiki torches, these angry white boys can be something else — for a night.

Chins? A girlfriend? A soul??

That's it....keep fanning those flames. Like we don't have enough of this sh** already.

The author of that article is a dumbass. That's all, thanks.

I don't see you complaining about the right-wing posters who keep fanning the flames.

It's not fanning flames unless a white nationalist is reading this thread.

And if so, they can kindly go back to Stormfront.

Why are you offended?

What do you think white nationalists want?

a reply to: Deaf Alien

You'd have to read the whole article. It isn't terribly long.

a reply to: Abysha

See, I knew that was coming. I stay out of it, don't really voice an opinion, other than both sides have written a million threads and they all turn out the same....and suddenly I'm a white nationalist supporter. Do you people even fu**ing listen to yourselves?

a reply to: FyreByrd

are you going to " analyse " the members of BLM , antifa etc etc etc using the same " logic " ?

Yes. What's your point? I've never seen you condemn the right.

What?! Look, if there's a room of people and somebody says "pedophiles are losers" and one person is like "Hey, I'm offended by that!", wouldn't it be a bit troubling?

This isn't a case of equating "your side" with Nazism. It's an article about Nazi folk! People on the right should be able to read that and comfortably say "Yeah, screw those losers" along with all the other not-Nazis.

If a thread about Nazis is "fanning the flames" on ATS, then things are worse than I thought.

PETA wants us to pretend that 40 pounds of beef is morally equal to 40 pounds of toddler

This is what triggered me.

I prefer bacon.

a reply to: Deaf Alien

Ahh bacon. The fat that holds the US together.


Say, I've got an idea.

The angry white boy probably wants the same thing the angry black boy wants.

If they fought together to get what they want, instead of fighting with each other, they might get what they want.
