How you can be more useful to the Party: a guide
How you can be more useful to the Party: a guide.
Ever find yourself thinking: “How can I stop being so useless? How can I actually make my side and tribe win? How can I finally make NiṣādaHermaphroditarchaṃśa proud?”
I’ve been writing a lot lately about how RWs need to be more purposeful in their engagement with politics, be more agentic, see themselves as party workers rather than customers who deserves to be pleased, etc.
More generally I would say: you should treat your engagement with politics as a type of “entrepreneurship”.
I think it’s best to meditate on the implications of this analogy for two minutes yourself, it’s hard to convey.
But the idea is: you are solving a hard problem so you need to think creatively and put in the effort, you need to find your edge, you need to be ambitious with your impact, you should imagine that you’re maximizing some kind of “profit” (so you can’t afford to do any wishful thinking, need to be very truthful with yourself if what you’re doing is working etc.).

optimize on some axis. Writing a book? Write the best book. Don’t produce slop.

another option: become very successful and do politics as a side-quest. E.g. Elon has been more consequential to the American RW than everyone else in the entire movement in the past 30 years combined. show not tell – easiest thing ever. knowing what to say and what to leave unsaid, aesthetics and high culture.
