Spencer: The communist?[edit]

Richard Spencer: EU supporter?[edit]

The last sentence of the first paragraph suggests Spencer opposes non-western immigration while the penultimate sentence suggests he opposes anti-white immigration. The Radix article, upon which this first paragraph relies, looks more like the paragraph should end with him opposing non-white immigration. Both versions are abhorent, but his words imply one version is closer to what he meant.

If there is no objection (or I wait long enough to forget), I'll change it. 2601:285:8380:1AC8:D5A5:15FE:2810:8FBA (talk) 19:25, 13 December 2020 (UTC)

Cult leaders category?[edit]

I'm wondering if Mr. Spencer is worthy of inclusion in the "Cult leaders" category. TheRationalGamer 01:50, 19 June 2021 (UTC)

Is he a 1950s democrat now?[edit]

I am somewhat starting to believe that he had somewhat of an ideological shift towards the democratic party while also keeping nearly all of his white supremacist beliefs. 2601:281:D880:DED0:19B7:4DA6:C618:7D2A (talk) 04:08, 23 May 2023 (UTC)

He's just reinventing himself because of the Sines v Kessler lawsuit. Similarly, Anatoly Karlin (a poster boy for Spencer) has recently reinvented himself as a "tranhumanist anarchist". Like Spencer, Karlin retains all his old white supremacist and eugenics beliefs. 64.227.45.215 (talk) 12:35, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
I would be skeptical of these rebranding attempts. Baked Alaska appeared to have gone through a similar thing for a few years. It is of course possible his beliefs have changed somewhat, though as you say he still appears to be a white supremacist of some strain or other. Chillpilled (talk) 09:01, 16 September 2023 (UTC)
