How Do I Reconcile My Affection For The Dark Enlightenment With Orthodox Judaism?

Dark Enlightenment tweets: “@lukeford good interview w @SOBL1 I applaud your honesty, how can you reconcile your conversion & Alt right views? You’re a goy to Haredi.”

I tweet back: “Easy. Ethno-Nationalism for everyone, including Jews. I want nothing for my group I don’t want for others.”

SOBL1 tweets: “I wholeheartedly agree. A people, a thede, has the best cohesion to make pro-civilization decisions and actions.”

Luke: “The Dark Enlightenment is anti-Jewish because of the choices [many] elite Jews have made. There is nothing inherent in Jews as such [to make them the inalterable enemy of gentile nationalisms, fascism and neo-reaction. Jews can be and often are great Americans, great Russians, great Englishmen, great Australians.] Many Italian Jews supported Mussolini, some German Orthodox rabbis initially supported Hitler. There are no permanent friends or enemies for nations or peoples, there are only shifting alliances. Right now Jews get along well with Christians and badly with Muslims. A few hundred years ago, the opposite was true. If Hitler had used Jews to build him nuclear weapons first and they proved decisive, Jews would have been essential to Nazi success and they would have taken an honored role in that society. In a hundred years, most Jews might live in China or Russian, and be regarded as good citizens. Jews, like all peoples, respond to incentives.

“Most Orthodox Jews, who are heavily urban, are virgins when they marry. What proud people would not want that? I can’t think of many systems more reactionary and anti-democratic and anti-equality than Orthodox Judaism.”

The best way of understanding the political right is that it is against equality.

I believe that ethno-nationalism as embodied by Israel and Japan is the best way to build a high-functioning society. The more cohesive a group, the more unified in race, religion and culture, the more strong.

According to Wikipedia: The Dark Enlightenment, or neoreactionary movement, or just neoreaction (abbreviated NRx by proponents), is an anti-democratic, reactionary movement that broadly rejects egalitarianism and Whig historiography. The movement favors a return to older societal constructs and forms of government, including support for monarchism and traditional gender roles, coupled with a libertarian or otherwise right-wing or conservative approach to economics.[1][2] Some critics have labeled the movement as “neo-fascist”.[3]

A 2013 TechCrunch article describes the “Neoreactionary” “community of bloggers” as a term applied to, and sometimes a self-description of, an informal group of online political theorists who have been active since the 2000s
