A Brief History of Reactionary Taxonomy
In April and May of 2013, neoreaction experienced what Nick Land would later dub a “Cambrian Explosion.” Scharlach explains:
It’s a sign of maturity that the neoreactionary movement has begun to go “meta” on itself. Scholars of the Dark Enlightenment are beginning to ask self-reflexive questions about who they are, where divisions lie, and what it all means.
Well, we in the Carlyle Club for Young Reactionaries (Students Against a Democratic Society) aren't qualified to know what any of it means, but we think this is all very exciting and we insist on being a part of it anyway! So we spent all night learning.
