The pastoral work of the new right

The new right lifted the weight the postmodernists imposed on the heart of the world. They are the new priests selling indulgencies to the sinners of the now vanishing world. Postmodernists inherited criticism from modernity but sank it in pessimism. They spoke of climate change but said it was too late. They spoke of social domination but gave up on the idea of liberation. They spoke of the dangers of technology but just stared at it. In sum, they lived the end of times, pointing at the “West” as the ultimate guilty and distributing a quota of guilt on everyone. This is what Sloterdijk named cynical reason: the spirit of modernity deprived of strength and projects. But we are leaving those times behind. The new right is here to absolve the old enemies of modernity and Enlightment. The new right is not cynical. It just wiped out every human problem as if it didn’t exist. There is no problem in discriminating migrants or women. It’s fine to hate gays. It’s good to cheer for seeing people die. Climate change does not exist. Hit your woman, exploit coal, bomb all the brown people. Feel no guilt for that. Now you are free…
