Trump has failed by every metric except raising himself to (almost) mythic status. Because of this alone, nobody is even in the same room as him in terms of political influence. Not a single politician in the Western world even comes close.
This is not an endorsement of him, but a cold shower for the radical right. For too long, the radical right's play has been to debate liberalism out of power, whereas people are not moved by argument, but by narrative. Everyone backs a strong horse, and the strong horse says convincingly "history bends toward me". The right has won every "debate" it has ever had, and continues to lose the war. Unless and until we learn this lesson (among others), we will continue to be a fringe movement.
We have done a lot to move the Overton window, but overwhelmingly our work has been done by elites having fumbled the ball badly, and gone way too far, way too fast. History bends toward us, but not because we're master strategists. We suck at strategy and need to get better—and this includes crafting a more powerful myth than that of "progress".

Feels like a simulation.

No matter whom you vote for, or what gloss your preferred candidate puts on these issues, nothing will change until you and enough of the people around you wake up to reality, and launch a campaign of consistent non-compliance with the antihuman trajectory that manipulative elites have set us upon.
It does not matter whether you label the centralizing ambitions of those elites as socialism, communism, technocracy, gobalism or fascism. It doesn’t matter whether you see them as reflecting philanthropic, criminal or satanic motives. The important thing about centralisation is that it absolutely requires censorship and comprehensive obliteration of rights and freedoms to persist, and that it is wholly incompatible with the flourishing of human beings...”
History doesn’t offer much hope. It seems always to have been the case that an ...
