6/ Democracy is also dangerous to the new right bc it allows progressives to win power. And the new right views the left as an existential threat to America. "The true enemy", said Arizona's Blake Masters. Any means necessary to destroy the left is justified by the new right. — PolitiTweet.org

5/ Further, the new right believes democracy has outlived its usefulness. Democracy is too inefficient, and voters are too dumb. Curtis Yarvin, the intellectual muse of the new right, supports a monarchy, writing: "Democracy...is just impossible. With today’s voters, at least". — PolitiTweet.org

7/ Tellingly, the new right talks a lot about social but not economic restraints. "I no longer believe democracy and freedom are compatible", says the new right's patron, Peter Thiel. But what he wants is less consumer regulation and more freedom for monopoly power. — PolitiTweet.org
