The European New Right — metapolitics, ethnopluralism, GRECE. Appears in Infrared discourse through Haz's treatment of Dugin, who passed through it and came out unimpressed.

Tracing Dugin's trajectory: 80s "super-fascist" phase (rejecting Nazi Germany and Mussolini as capitalist-controlled), then Pamyat, then contact with the European New Right as the USSR collapsed. But Dugin's own 2004 verdict on them: "a bunch of misfits incapable of original thinking or deeds... they whine and squabble over trivia and grumble at a world they don't understand and are pathologically afraid of" — rating the Red Brigades "a hundred times more attractive than the majority of these European traditionalists."

The standing critique

One constitutive evasion: capital is never named as class relation. "The market" and "the system" criticized in the abstract while the actual social relations of exploitation stay intact; culture-war substitutes for class struggle. Where the New Right replaces class with race, this movement keeps nation as the form and class as the content (Curtis Yarvin, Nazi-Maoism).
