We can wrap this up in one sentence: I am starting a new post before I go grocery shopping, and you are reading this. Easy enough. That was snarky and not very funny, I know. When I ask, “what are we doing?”, I do not mean it literally. But then again, I do. What am I doing when I write this? What are you doing when you read this? More generally, what is the right doing when we write and read articles? What about when we listen to podcasts? Or hang around on Telegram? What I am questioning is why does the right do what it does? By “the right”, I mean anyone to the right of the Republican party. Steve Bannon is “on the right”, Darren Beattie is “on the right”, nationalists, neo-reactionaries, and T/t/raditionalists are “on the right.” For the most part, this loose coalition spends the majority of its time online, even if there is in-person action as in the case of Bannon or nationalist activists. Side note: I refuse to say IRL…writing pamphlets is “IRL”, or else we slander Thomas Carlye, and the internet is the 21st century equivalent of the pamphlet. Okay, why? Why do people like me have a Substack, or send in articles for The American Sun? Furthermore, why do you, and people like you, read my ramblings, or the writings of people much better than me.
