To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand the RWDT. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of Evola most of the jokes will go over a typical reader’s head. There’s also TEM’s nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from 4chan shitposting, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they’re not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike the RWDT truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn’t appreciate, for instance, the humour in Aellex's existential catchphrase “Immigrants did it,” which itself is a cryptic reference to Jean Raspail’s French-language prophecy The Camp of the Saints. I’m smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Sir Edmond Burke’s genius wit unfolds itself on their computer screens. What fools.. how I pity them.

And yes, by the way, i DO have a NationStates tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It’s for the mens’ eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they’re within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel kid

UMN is Persian, loyal to his masters. Yearns to be in the shadow of power and greatness, but will not accept the shadow of those outside his race. Not to be trusted.

Aillyria is Germanic. Loyal to her own virtues. Strives for power not for its own sake, but to see the world cut up where it rots, and damn the consequences. Not to be trusted^^Teutoberg

Geni and Therm are Roman, loyal to abstractions (Republicanism for oneself, SPQR, law* or at least legalistic motions, etc). Imperialist and hegemonic, culturally chauvinist and assimilationist. To be trusted. To stab you in the toga.
*well, Roman law, at least. Is there some other form of law?

Benuty is Egyptian, loyal to the capriciousness of divinity, bridging a gap between spirituality and madness. Not to be trusted.

WRA is Scythian. Loyal to his F R E E D O M. Not to be trusted.

ND is Carthaginian, loyal to himself and his peers, in that order. If you trust him, omae wa mou shindeiru.

TLT/Felrik are Axumite, loyal to their peers and themselves, in that order. Not to be trusted.

Clearly you're one of the Celts. Loyal to institutions rooted in tradition and loyal to that tradition which will bring forth new institutions should the old fall. Too trustworthy; not to be trusted.

Lumi's probably a Celt too.
