Richard Spencer: Difference between revisions

[[File:Neetarmy.jpg|thumb|Richard Spencer, on the left.|alt=|261x261px]]'''Richard Spencer''' is a prominent [[alt-right|white nationalist]] and neo-nazi<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvCJuwcE074</ref> ("national socialist"<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=4&v=OzG8XT6R-qo</ref>) living in the USA. He coined the term [[alt-right]], on a blog that used to feature [[Andy Nowicki]]. He frequently mentions and flirts with [[incel|incels]], [[4chan]] culture, and [[NEET]]s. He has devoted at least three hours of his podcast to incels this year, but has not yet responded to any self-identified incel for an interview to ask him why the fuck he is doing this so much.  

Richard's white nationalist co-host [[Gregory Conte]] earnestly said that incels are the most important social phenomenon, which made Richard laugh a bit. Conte also said that governments that don't recognize incel rage deserve to fall.  

Sources of above mentioned comments by Richard and Gregory:

[[Angela Nagle]] describes Richard as a political grifter who is not actually politically ideological outside race and seeks to patronize anyone's political view as a propaganda tactic. Recently Richard has made almost exclusive overtures to the left-wing, outside of his fascination with euegenics. This has led many in the [[alt-right]] to label Richard as a Fed, socialist, and Nazbol. Richard seems to take absolutely no issue with the label of 'socialist'. He has stated he is not a conservative, and that he has stated this many times. He has stated explicit belief in political progress, legalizing distribution of child pornography to pedophiles to 'keep them from harming children', gun control, medicare-for-all, withdrawing troops from dictatorial countries, appreciation of non-binary presenting female actresses, appreciation of caramelized onions ("hot stuff"), tolerance of gay marriage, and authoritarianism in general.

He most notably advocates the creation of a white ethnostate in American, seemingly not realizing Maine exists. Release private recordings elaborate on this belief of his suggesting he mainly supports 'ruling over' anyone even slightly not white, and sees himself as a ruler.<ref>https://www.timesofisrael.com/richard-spencer-slurs-jews-blacks-in-expletive-laden-rant-put-online/</ref> Richard and his friends also seem to use praising of Hitler as a celebration repeatedly in public and private, cementing his status as 'neo-nazi'.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvCJuwcE074</ref>

Spencer has stated that he is anti-free-speech, something that does not play well in incel communities. Also in late-2019, Spencer has used the term 'incel' as an insult and seems to have ended his public sympathy for incels, without explanation given.
