I put it as<br/></p><blockquote><p>the construction of a modern, international, \nEnglish-speaking \nAustralian-American-Polish-British-Scandanavian-Serbian-etc. white volk \naround a core of internet-native right-masculo-populism on the chans\u2019 \n\u201cwaifus, warhammer, and white nationalism\u201d model</p></blockquote><p>and the internationalism counts for something. Like I\u2019ve said, because my sleep cycles leave me up on the internet late[/early] enough for the Strayans to show up, I now know the <a href=\"/post/47506265039/\" target=\"_blank\">correct derogatory stereotypes</a> about Aboriginal Australians, though I doubt one has ever even crossed into my physical field of vision. <br/></p><p>And I guarantee you there are a lot of guys out there, around the world, who on hearing that Russia (or even a Danish/Finnish coalition) had invaded Sweden, would at least give a good \u201cattaboy\u201d, with hopes towards shifting Swedish domestic policy and culture, <i>despite not being able to name two Swedish cities or politicians</i>.</p><p>But really, an international bunch of alienated young male yahoos doing identitarian chest-thumping on social media, what could they really <i>do</i> anyway?<br/></p><p>Well, why don\u2019t you go ask ISIS?<br/></p>"}
