Another WN 1.0 vs. WN 2.0 Comparison (USA)

Food for thought.

The peak of WN 1.0 – From the election of George Bush Sr. to the re-election of George Bush Jr (1988-2004):

Leaders: William Pierce, Kevin Strom, Jared Taylor, David Duke, Willis Carto, Harold Covington

Books: On Genetic Interests, MacDonald’s Jewish Trilogy

Activism: National Alliance at its peak before the death of Pierce, in the 1990s having regular local unit meetings and annual National Office leadership conferences; Resistance Records thriving; European American Issues Forum and Euro-American Student Union; David Duke with a reasonably successful mainstream political career; Legion Europa and other groupuscules forming

Music: Rahowa, Dresden, Bound for Glory

Amren: Conferences at DC-area hotels, Taylor on C-SPAN

The peak of WN 2.0 – From the first election of Obama to the present (2008-present; the period 2004-2008 was an interregnum in which the 1.0 to 2.0 transition occurred):

Leaders: Greg Johnson, Richard Spencer, Andrew Anglin, Mike Enoch, Parrot and Heimbach

Books:  The Homo and the Negro, My Nationalist Pony

Activism: Beavis-and-Butthead White nationalism (the rise and fall of the Alt Right); Silk Road White nationalism; the HBD-Nordicist-Ethnonationalist alliance; Hailgate; Unite the Right; drunken podcasts, Hermansson and Lewis; the Pilleater Chronicles; chugging gallons of milk while screaming “Kek!;” Pepe and MAGA; the Trump fiasco

Music: Taylor Swift’s “implicitly white” paens to lesbianism and her disgust with Red State America

Amren: Conferences in the backwoods of TN; Taylor a pariah from the mass media

Summary:

I am not saying that WN 1.0 was good; in fact, it was distinctly bad. However, as bad as it was, it was still an order of magnitude superior to the tragicomic mess of WN 2.0.
