Shapiro Disowns "New Right"
Twitter ^ | May 7, 2026 | Jackie Chea

Posted on 05/07/2026 9:31:03 PM PDT by TBP

@benshapiro has renamed the “Horseshoe Right.”

They’re now simply the “New Left.”

They believe:

🔘The constitution is antiquated and should be updated or replaced 🔘 America is a nefarious force in the world & our service members are war criminals 🔘 America’s enemies (Russia, China, Iran, etc.) are the good guys 🔘 Capitalism is corrupt & govt power is the solution 🔘 Americans can be divided by race into victims and victimizers

Ben says they “have NOTHING in common with traditional conservatism, and they have nearly EVERYTHING in common with their new friends on the left.”

Thanks, Ben. Some of us have said this for years.

What these people are is Duginites.

The conservative movement used to have gatekeepers, such as Bill Buckley. While we do have disagreements and a range of views, we aldo hve parameters outside of which one is no longer part of the right.

Shapiro is making a good attempt to begin to define those parameters.

This comes just days after a video in which Nazi Nicky Fuentes branded himself a “non-woke moderate Democrat.” (If he’s a moderate, I don’t think I want to know what the extremists look like.)

How long before one of these morons points out that Shapiro is Jewish, as if that makes a difference?

Nick Fuentes admitted he’s a moderate Democrat. Before him, Richard Spencer was the right-wing boogeyman — then endorsed Kamala. Same playbook.

Shawn Ryan, Candace Owens, Ian Carroll are now pushing “unity with the left.”

That specific brand of “America-last” populism often traces its intellectual DNA straight back to Aleksandr Dugin and his “Fourth Political Theory.”

While many of the people shouting those slogans couldn’t pick Dugin out of a lineup, they are essentially speaking his language. Dugin’s project is the systematic dismantling of the “Liberal Order”—which, in his view, includes everything from the U.S. Constitution and free-market capitalism to individual rights and the traditional Western alliance.

For a “Duginite,” the goal isn’t to make America better; it’s to see the “Atlanticist” power structure collapse. This explains the bizarre overlap you’re seeing:

The Shared Enemy: They view the U.S. government (the “Deep State” or the “Globalist” machine) as a greater evil than foreign autocracies.

Identity Over Ideas: They replace constitutional principles with a “blood and soil” or “civilizational” identity, which naturally leads them back to the oldest, ugliest forms of scapegoating.

The “Joo” Slur: In Dugin’s world, “liberalism” is often portrayed as a rootless, international force. It’s no coincidence that his followers—and those like Fuentes—quickly pivot to antisemitism. It is the shorthand they use for “the people who won’t let us have our ethnonationalist utopia.”

I’ve noticed that many of the younger generation of ‘conservatives’ spend a great deal of their media time trashing each other. Ego clashes, Purity Tests and Cat Fights.

That’s usually wasted energy, you could direct to a Democrat or RINO. Don’t be that MAGA member!
You will be doing the Dems work for them.

“you could direct to a Democrat or RINO”

Isn’t that what’s happening? Tucker, Fuentes, Kelly? None of them are MAGA, they all attack Trump. Why are you holding fire at this point? are you not MAGA?

I noticed that most of these guys have voices that are either high or just plain grating.

Some of those guys may still be working on developing their resonant and authoritative Broadcasting Voice, hoping to be discovered and asked to join a large news cable outlet,

while others have never even thought about it (projecting a more professional image). They came from having a personal blog, preaching to a small choir, slouching in their big swivel gaming chairs, then collecting followers, maybe sponsors too. The Wild West of Podcasting continues.

Yeah, I can’t stand his voice. I cut off him and Klavan years ago and only enjoy Walsh and Knowles these days.

Foreign boogey-men are not the ones flooding the West with non-Whites.

That would be our own elites.

The Heritage populations of the countries of the West have not flourished with the BS of “Constitutional Principles” and “Civic Nationalism”.

Boomer-Con bullshît and open borders “conservatism” has failed and it is time for something else.


(White fraction of world population)

1950 25 %
1990 15 %
2026 8 %
Projected numbers
2050 5.5 %
2100 2.5 %
2200 1 %

When will White people be considered a minority?

"Staccato Voice Ben Shapiro.......I can listen to his show for about 15 minutes before I get a headache........"I hear you. I can't listen to that annoying, Poindexter-like twerp for more than 15 seconds. He's such a condescending know-it-all, self-aggrandizing prick too. But he's dead right on this issue.

Nick also called himself an “Afro-Latino Democrat”, so don’t take it too seriously. He said he’ll vote Democrat for one election, to send a message.
