I don't mean to imply that we don't need to destroy or reconstruct the current system to build a new one, we certainly do. But just as demolition on a site or knocking out walls precede actual construction, so must destroying or repairing aspects of the old system precede building a new political system. In a totality, it could be viewed as merely a phrase of construction.
I avoid the term deconstruction because in many aspects it has been contaminated with leftist attempts to erode upon the old order of Paleoconservatism, back when that was just the status quo. Naming ourselves after the destruction of something rather than the creation would make us appear to be merely an anti-ideology. As though we were motivated by iconoclasm rather than any intention to advance our people.
Reconstruction similarly is tainted by being the term used to describe the Union's political and economic domination of the former Confederacy following the Civil War. If we are to be a national movement across the country, it's best to avoid terms that large swathes of the country would object to.
Moreover, for both Reconstruction and Deconstruction, the prefixes distract attention away from the masculine, creative act that the ideology should treat as central to it (although both deconstruction and reconstruction are themselves masculine acts).
Disagreed. Terminology is part of how you propagate memetics (although you're right that symbols are important too). A big part of the problem we've been running into as a movement is that we've failed to create a cohesive ideology, which has allowed outside influences (likely run by Agents Provacateurs) to try to co-opt it with terms they invent, such as the "Alt-Right".
If our label is National Socialism, we live in the shadow of Hitler's Germany. I want to rehabilitate the image of National Socialism, expose the holohoax, all that, but the fact of the matter is we tie ourselves to a historic movement and have to spend a lot of time and energy defending our forebears from the slander that people have been brainwashed with. Hitler said it himself in Triumph of the Will, "When our party had only seven men, it already had two principles. First, it wanted to be a party with a true ideology.". Although it would be nice to defend the Fuhrer, the damage is done. What's important is to take the ideology, which thankfully our enemies have failed to deconstruct in lieu of demonizing him, and incorporate it into our own. But it has to be our own, or it will be tethered to a battle over hearts and minds that we can only lose.
Absolutely. I agree that symbols are more important than terms, but I felt inspired with the term I wrote of and unfortunately don't have any good ideas for symbols (at the moment). We should have a number of threads to brainstorm symbols that speak to the particular character of Americans as a people. I've already stated my opinion on recreating the trappings of national socialism, although I fully understand the longing to I'd advise against it. Even the esoteric ones unfortunately may do more harm than good to us in an age where information is freely and easily transferred.
