ConPro / ConsumeProduct appears to be grounded politically & philosophically on National Socialism: explicit anti-Capitalism, mixed with constant demands for Economic Leftism to create a form of racial-economic protectionism.
And then add all the antisemitism and calls for extermination of their asserted bourgeoisie.
If I believed every accusation of Nazism leveled against every group of people that I had no experience with ... well, I'd have been anti-#GG for one.
I don't know anything about ConsumeProduct, I don't go there or read it, but just on general principle I'm going to assume that anyone accusing them of being Nazis is a fucking liar.
Typically I’d say the same but in the past I’d seen imp essentially continue an argument from there here with someone and I’m willing to believe that about there if that individual has similar views to the rest of that sub. The problem is imp would also accuse regular people here as being from consumer product when most of us had no clue what he was talking about.
Feel free, but they might tell you otherwise. The head mod there is an open and avowed White Nationalist.
This is just my honest interpretation of them, their mods, and their stated predispositions. I'm not going to try and do some silly forum war, but I honestly doubt they would mind how I described them.
Then they would call me a "fucking kike".
ConPro is an example of a community that failed to gatekeep, and were expertly captured by trolls who are masters at gatekeeping. This should be taken as a compliment. I'm sure many of them are sincere in their beliefs.
I'm sure they are. In fact, I know they are.
Fundamentally, thier actions and efforts are extremely subversive.
Put it like this: Poal gatekeeps. The welcome page of Poal greets you with a half-dozen former Voat members who will immediately throw antisemetic comments at you, and then basically move on and talk about other things.
But some of the people who come here from that forum aren't gatekeeping, they are subverting. Every single conversation is only about jews. Any user that disagrees is then told they are a kike, a nigger, a streetshitter, a shitskin, or any other rather uncomfortable racial pejorative they can summon that isn't an anti-white slur, and by 5-10 of them at a time. They aren't gatekeeping, they are socially enforcing a very specific narrative, and will do it with unrelenting verbal abuse.
This is one of the primary reasons for Rule 15. Racial and ethnic slurs are particularly egregious in most environments, and if you used them in a public setting, there's a real likelihood your slur would be followed up with social violence because it's so wildly inappropriate in any conversation, let alone towards people you've just met. The effort of dog-piling people with slurs, while making every topic about a race war meta-narrative, creates perpetual social enforcement by a kind of racial sharia. The purpose is to conquer every single available online space and make it ideologically homogenous. The problem is, because they are Leftists, they can't build anything, so as soon as they conqure it, it begins to die.
ConPro is exactly as you said, because it was subverted, and they weren't the only ones.
Well that's always the first step isn't it? You subvert then you win then you gatekeep. When ConPro started it had nothing to do with Jews, but there is an intersection between consumerism, rootless libertine capitalism, and neomarxism which provided a vector of attack.
Yes. It just so happens, unfortunately, that each of those things is philosophically disposed to attracting National Socialism.
So he's a Nazi or a Nazi sympathizer.
Imp?
No, he would never forgive white women enough to tolerate white National Socialists.
Wait, no...he has a point.
I don't think that's the case.
