So those young people drawn to the Nazi movement in America are actually "highly curious and intelligent, often grappling with major political questions" and people who want to "deeply engage with and grapple with big ideas"----so why is that "need and desire not being met anywhere else"?
Because if you're a White male in America, intellectual life is dead. Political correctness killed it. If you're intellectually curious, you're going to question everything and weigh arguments by their merits according to logic and reason----which is not allowed under this System.
This article is actually an odd throwback to the kind of article that used to be published about Richard Spencer in 2015-16, when smug, self-satisfied leftists were aghast to discover that there could be such a thing as a well-dressed, well-spoken intellectual racist----I thought the novelty had worn off by now. But it's also a reminder that since 2016, intellectual life is that much more stifled, asking the difficult questions still leads down the Nazi path, and our ideas attract and are accepted by a much, much larger pool of young White men.
We're going to continue to attract the smart guys who want to grapple with big ideas because the academic Cult of George Floyd has nothing to offer them but endless browbeating and an immense, crushing, suffocating stupidity.
