From The Week’s article “The intellectual right contemplate an American Caesar”

I’m not saying the entire article is bad—it provides a very good description of the footsie being played between conventional rightist “thinkers” and bugnut monarchists—but it’s definitely a choice to describe Reagan courting George Wallace voters as “anodyne.”

I’m posting it, though, because the described discussion between Anton (the ‘Flight 93” guy) and Yarvin demonstrates what we’re up against. It’s fundamentally unserious, magical thinking about a technocrat/monarch saving us all, but attached to deadly serious discussion of what needs to be destroyed and suppressed. We’re so fucking deep in the weeds and the right just keeps being more explicit that they want fascism.
