Fasting is good for you and you should probably do it more often than you do.

Restaurants should not be allowed to let their patrons customize entrees.

What are some of the worst archetypes in the far right online space?

I'll start with "liberal but racist."

Inb4 "poor but owns a sauna."

Nationalism — that great banner of the supposed right — began as pure revolutionary poison. The "nation" was invented specifically to destroy proper authority, replacing divine right and natural hierarchy with a nefarious abstraction: "the will of the people."

Consider: When revolutionaries spoke of "the nation," they meant precisely the destruction of traditional order — the elimination of proper regional distinctions, the abolition of natural social classes, the replacement of concrete loyalties with abstract citizenship. The "nation" was created explicitly to destroy the very things modern nationalists claim to defend.

The nationalists saw their kings as enemies of "the nation," and fought bloody wars to usurp them. Furthermore, even when early nationalists tolerated kings, they did so only insofar as monarchs could be reimagined as "servants of the nation" rather than divinely appointed rulers. A king's legitimacy no longer stemmed from God or dynasty or genuine authority and rulership, but from his supposed embodiment of national will — a profound demotion wrapped in superficial deference. The nation itself became the true sovereign, with the monarch reduced to a symbolic figurehead or administrative functionary. This was nationalism's twin assault on kingship: for those who resisted, the guillotine and the firing squad; for those who submitted, a more insidious death — stripped of true authority, paraded about as mere servants of an abstraction, their divine right replaced by the fickle approval of "the people." Whether through blood or humiliation, nationalism meant the death of kingship, a degradation of proper authority into revolutionary chaos, i.e., democracy, leftism.

When someone wields nationalism as a supposed right wing principle, ask them to explain why they're wielding a blade forged specifically to cut the throats of kings.

Every attempt at "moderate" or "conservative" liberalism will fail. You cannot contain chaos. You cannot preserve "some" connection to eternal truth while accepting the logic of its destruction. The corruption always spreads until all proper order, all truth is severed and only will remains.
