This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.patrickcasey.com Martin Sellner is an Austrian political activist and theorist. He returns to the show to discuss his latest book , Regime Change from the Right. In the first half of the show, we catch up a bit, discuss Trump’s progress so far, and examine the relationship between the administration and the online right. We then discuss regime change: What is it? Martin then explains why he considers himself a conservative revolutionary. Next, we discuss what he has termed the reconquista strategy, and why fleeing cities to form communities isn’t a path to power. In the second half of the show, we continue discussing a few non-strategies Sellner outlines in his book. He explains why what some bloggers refer to as elite infiltration is a recipe for failure. We then discuss the danger of apocalyptic thinking: the view that victory can only arise from a deus ex machina . I relate this perspective to Machiavelli’s thoughts on fortuna and the importance of virtue. We then discuss what Sellner terms gangsterism, and why it’s a dead end for the right. Later, Sellner outlines the proper organization for a right-wing political movement. To conclude, we consider how a radical flank can move the right in a better direction.
