>>767960Ethnic nationalism is stupid even from a completely reactionary perspective of opportunistic populism.
Pic related. By appealing to incels, a masculinist pan nationalism insures at least 50% of all human beings feel like they benefit somehow from it whether or not they morally agree with it. Some women might even see the appeal. This is why Christian Nationalism works, because there's a lot of Christians. One isn't even forced to be Christian. It's entirely a choice and identity making it even easier to make a pan national uniting ideology around it.
The thing is, nationalism ignores the struggles of the proletariat in favor of some other contrived enemy force and wholly it is fascist by it's nature because it appeals primarily too upper middle class petty bourgeois who have something to lose or gain and thus see the most appeal.
And yes I derive all of this observation from a silly hat making fun of dead school girls.
