Under the gentle interrogation of Devout Agnostic, Andy (that’s me!) opens up about how he became a writer, and later an editor, of the seminal dissident right website Alternative Right dot com, and why, in his judgment, his former coeditors Richard Spencer and Colin Liddell tragically transformed into pitiful neoliberal shills.
I agree with you about CL being not especially principled. I don’t know if he believes half the stuff he writes. A lot of the articles since the launch of Neokrat are very low effort.
Read his counter piece about the true reason the UK has high levels of immigration - because it’s an “immigrationy” country apparently. High level analysis and circular reasoning there Colin.
He is also pushing the idea that Nigel Farage is some kind of Russian asset. Colin’s qualifying criteria for being a dissident is that your actions must in no way benefit Vladimir Putin, no matter how indirectly.
Farage is a Russian asset, Trump is a Russian asset, Tucker Carlson, Tulsi Gabbard, Joe Rogan, Elon Musk, et al--- ALL Russian assets... Even the Unabomber was a Russian asset! And Pizzagate was Russian disinfo. Colin has claimed all of these things, and more.
Colin’s position isn’t merely silly - it’s also highly disingenuous.
I’m not a Putin fan at all. Last time I was in Russia was 20 years ago but it seemed like a desolate place and I don’t but into the idea of Russia as presenting some kind of alternative civilisational model to Western clown world.
But it’s hardly surprising the Russian regime would provide a platform or a boost to Western dissidents, especially those ostracised by the regime. That’s just how geopolitics works.
But in Colin’s view we should be cheerleaders for the wars of the present regime. The regime that hates us and would have our voices completely silenced if it could and increasingly brooks no dissent. Uh, no thanks Colin.
I haven't listened to this no doubt pathetic podcast, but, in my experience, Nowicki is a delusional and mentally ill person who believes in ridiculous conspiracy theories that he does nothing to substantiate. That is why I broke from him. Simple as!
As for the pathetic critiques of me in the comments here, it seems I was right AGAIN to be suspicious of Russian influence in the DR or did none of you fuckwits hear about the Tenet Media story?
