cults of the culture wars: The Far Right entrenchment. Origins of their Fascist doctrines. "Vilfredo Pareto" (part 1)
"...The Alt-Right now morphing into a various extremists groups, has now firmly set itself with the Cultist foundation, with podcasts and proponents of Right Wing extremism being banned from social media platforms, what was known as “Deplatforming” was, as mentioned, probably slow and a little too late, it took a very dangerous incident of a storming of Congress to instigate the process of now removing the podiums of Right Wing cults from billion dollar earning digital platforms. Whether any cultist aspect of Left Wing dissension via social media is seen as unbalanced in comparison to the Deplatforming of extremists of the Right, it would be no more than a celebrity hashtag ‘activism’ in expanding broader markets of the so called social inclusions. Very opportunistic and capitalistic in its venture, not implementing “Culture Marxism” that some of the apparent 'intellectuals' of the Right Wing have proposed. The aggressor backlash against so called liberalisms by these Cults of the Culture Wars have created mountains out of molehills, motivated by Paleolibertarianism inspired commentators and a former President who used his own cult of personality to polarizes a groundswell of the disenfranchised, who in all retrospect, have been manipulated, from the plethora of lesson known players all prescribing to the belief that their society is being overrun by socialists. An echo-chamber of conspiracy theories, that, despite the social media De-platforming that has occurred, one should not dismiss this collective of Right Wing cultist ideology as a just a passing phase in its sociological division, as it would be unwise in doing so. In comparison to elements of the more, so called, extreme Left Wing are akin to being post graduate college students, which in this current time frame and measure, are likely to disperse overtime, it is the Right Wing cults that are more organized and vastly, with the incident on the 6th of January of 2021 is to go by, much more dangerous."

The above passage, and conclusion to "Cults of the Culture Wars" was written in 2021, after the alarming incident that occured on January 1st 2021, when Donald Trump, via Twitter at the time, mustered up thousands of Far Right militia, and White Supremacist groups in an attempt at storming Congress (Washington) in a conspiracy theory driven frenzy that the 2021 Joe Biden win was deemed as "stolen" by Trump's 'deep state' rhetoric, which he promoted to his supporters that the Democrats conspired to overthrow him with deceit, with a "radical left" vote counting system called Dominion. Over a thousand of these Far Right adherents were arrested, and when Trump gained office (again) in 2025, he pardoned all of these so called rioters, who were essentially Far Right terrorists.
And now, Donald Trump 2.0 has been reinstated as President once again, ironically voted back in by his supporters, while surviving felony charges, and pedophilla accuations ("Epstein Files"), once in office he went on a revenge driven, manic reelection promise, to literally purge America from immigrants to every Left Wing 'group' ever devised, removing and/or rewriting large aspects of the Constitution with 'Executive Orders', while unleashing executive power like no President in history has done before. This revamped brand of Trump's anti-democracy fervor, has been, and remains, backed by the plethora of appointed officials under the Trump doctrine, including slews of podcasters, major technology companies, aka the techno-Far Right of Silicon Valley, also known as "NRx" (neoreactionary) movement, has, in its algorithmic repetition, an historical imprint of Far Right philosophy aka Fascism. And one of the main tenets within its reinitrated rhetoric that the Far Right uses in an almost collective manner, yet solidified individualistic viewpoint within our current digital world, evolved from a many writers, and so called philosophers of the late 19th Century and early 20th century, who were responsible as precursors for laying down a doctrine of groundwork for Benito Mussolini and Adolf Hitler. And then later, post World War Two, other writers took up the mantle, filled with mostly anti-communism rhetoric and against 'equality' movements in a prelude to the counterculture years of the 1960s through to the 1980s. And this renewed Fascist rebrand may have been laying in wait, yet their proponents were persistently writing up renewed doctrines to apply to the later part of the 20th Century. These Fascist blueprints from the last 100 + years, do indeed make up a bulk of Trump's renewed or rebranding of Trumpism, including the rise of the Far Right globally.
Human nature and the "Lion". Instincts of shock and awe: Vilfredo Pareto
In the prelude to Italian Fascism, when the working class began demanding more rights, freedom and participation within a social democracy, the traditional hierarchical pushback begun, as Socialism, Communism and Anarchism offered to the working class to not be slaves to the Monarchy and/or State and it's "Elites". And by the 1900 so called "Scientific Socialism" ala "French Utopianism", began to fall out of favour by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, arguing that it would be a pipedream in its technocrat assumption, that a Utopian 'socialist' society could function by efficiency alone, without overcoming the class war. Vilfredo Pareto (1848 -1923) was a French born, Italian academic, having written papers from political science, engineering and economics, he remained fixed on Sociology as his main forte in the later part of his life. Carving a path through an extreme version of liberalism economics, after many papers and devising his renown mathematical equation why wealth distribution and essentially solving inequality under Marxism could never work, this was known as the "80:20" rule or "Pareto Principle"; that mathematically 20% of the population will always own 80% of the land, at the time, that was utilized as calculated example for the Italian powerful few will always have control of land, thus horde most of the wealth.
This "Pareto Principle", was essentially Patreto's underpinning via his Laissez Faire economic background, which moved him into the sociological sphere, reiterating with fervor that human nature and the laws of nature are never equal, thus should be accepted with a ruthless resolve. And in 1902 after moving towards the more sociological /human nature element of his 'calculations', he wrote Les Systèmes Socialistes ("The Systems of Socialists") and in an almost perfect blueprint for early manifestations of Fascism, he simplified the argument against Marxism, and essentially began the now all too familiar paranoid, anti-Marxist/Left 'witch hunt', that Socialism a "secular religion" attempting to replace Christianity, which was declining across Europe, claiming that Karl Marx's "Das Kapital" was the "new bible". And in the early part of the 1900s, something snapped in him, essentially breaking down his logic into rawer, easily digestible points, that a liberal, socially democratic society is not just impossible, but an conspiratorial illusion created by Marxists and advocates of democratic processes, to maintain their "elite" power. And in 1916 he compiled "The Mind and Society", which was published in English after his death in 1936, as the absolute pinnacle of Pareto's 'Law of the Jungle' ethos, which he does not just advocate as a inevitability, but rather a justification for authoritarian rule, where the "Lion" (Fascist) will need to take power over the "Foxes" (Marxists/Anarchists/Left).
Pareto's mental snap, or existential crisis at the turn of the century, from intellectual, mathematical realist, to an unhinged amoral, structuralist, using rudimentary, emotionally tinged rhetoric, to justify extreme structuralism views, no longer believing that a "rational economic man" can ever exist, while advocating that the sick and infirmed are the epitome of human weakness, to which he famously wrote that he, "laughed at their infirmity". Pareto's misogyny began to surface and become more prominent in his writings, after his wife Alessandra Bakunin, left him in 1902 for a younger man, who was actually their cook, and in his final years, he became fervently anti-Feminist, and in self induced seclusion, whilst writing his proto-Fascist manifesto "The Mind and Society", he believed that Feminism was a pathological "deviation" , that it weakened national identity, tradition, and family stability.
Vilfredo Pareto passed away on the 19th August 1923 in Céligny, Switzerland, and year after Benito Mussolini took power in Italy. Claiming that Pareto was his biggest influence to inscribe Fascism to Italian society, by morphing from being a Socialist to a absolute rule dictator. To which a dying Pareto, on his deathbed wrote to Mussolini and famously said, "Let the crows caw, but be merciless when it comes to acts."
