Is Nick Fuentes Good, Bad, or Neutral for the Right Wing Movement Broadly? Not asking if you like him, agree with him, or think ill/good of him. Not asking if you align with his positions. I have thoughts, but like Trump I wonder if he's more of a change agent, or result/reaction. And I wonder if his rise is going to be good/bad/indifferent for the movement long term. It could be that his rise sparks thought and debate that has been outside of the 3x5 index card. It could be that he is simply another figure that is used to discredit people. He could be sincere. He could be an OP. Not the point of this poll. Is he Good / BAD or Neutral for the larger tent of right of center politics and the ideas. I would include conservatives, libertarians, agorists, and anarcho-capitalists in the right of center category. Clearly some in the movement are trying to co-op his audience and his audience seems larger than many realize. Especially among younger men. What do you think?
My default position to trust no politican regardless of what they say or what party they join has aged pretty well. Many misunderstand trust. "Firm belief in the integrity, ability, or character of a person or thing; confidence or reliance." Is it wise to trust a class of people that have a long track record of lying and deceiving those they claim to work for? If you wanted to show your son or daughter an example of a person with character would you most likely point to a politician? Is it wise to rely on a politician for anything important in your life? You can like what a politician does sometimes but trusting them always seems like a fools errand to me. But that's me.
As incredible as it sounds I think most people talking politics do not have the knowledge required to understand the current political landscape. I think it as simple as a lack of curiosity and humility
Someone said of Candace Owens something I wished I had thought of. " You can turn the sound off of tell she's running a grift". Man, nailed the feeling I have had about her for years. Like most scammers she's not all lies. She makes some good points at times. But on the whole she's got some scam going. There are many ops going on now. I have no idea how coordinated it actually is but it feels like there and many bad actors outside of traditional media. Of course the tradition media is controlled but many alt media is as well. Think critically
