What in the holy fuck is the person behind this blog smoking? > "I don’t think I’ve been very ambiguous about the fact that I am a monarchist who thinks revolutionaries should be drug out into the street and shot..." - The Mad Monarchist

Well he is a monarchist. And revolutionaries have proclaimed exactly this sentiment in the past toward monarchists in the past, and put it in practice on mass scale.

Most likely this is not one person and most likely they do not smoke anything. This is very similar to one of Dugin's "long-running" and proactive projects.

This sort of performative outrage, telling people to "have a normal one", to "touch grass", to inform them that this is, in fact, a Wendy's upon encountering something they don't read 24x7 on Reddit - whats this supposed to add to the discussion? Are you telling us you're "a decent person"? Inform us exactly how wide your Overton Window is? This type of Aggressively Conventional tone policing is befitting of a schoolmarm hall monitor, not HN.

Yeah, the "about" section is quite the rollercoaster too. I think that's the first time I've read "reactionary" as a positive self-identity. And if anyone still had questions about the guy's personal opinion of Ungern-Sternberg, that tagline in the blog title is in fact a quote from him [1] - and after reading the article, I suspect it's meant exactly how it appears. It's really interesting (in a morbid curiosity kind of way) to learn that communities like this exist on the web. But yeah, bit of a friendly reminder too that only because a blog has a pleasant writing style or interesting content, it doesn't tell you anything about the actual people behind it, their affiliation or whether or not they are in fact batshit insane. And yeah, gotta admit, I learned about Ungern-Sternberg too, because I had never heard of that guy before. Though I wonder what kind of horrible things he must have done if even an outspoken monarchist who is perfectly ok with shooting "revolutionaries" on the streets admits that he was a "colorful character"...
