Revolutionary Right blog

Looking over the leftist blog, I was interested in creating a similar one for the revolutionary right, to do much the same that FallenRaptor is doing - explaining what it is, the core ideological components, and commentary on world events from a revolutionary viewpoint. It would be a community blog, in that I would invite other ideologically-similar individuals to participate. As I do not have the post count for a personal blog, I thought I'd request a community one.

If nothing else, it will present an alternative viewpoint to the 21s blog, which will fuel debate in the blog discussion boards, increasing user interest.

It sounds like a great idea but I doubt the more conservative wing would endorse the 'revolutionary' part. ;)

Anyway, you may like to contact Fox to see what can be done here.

Oh I'm all fine with it as long as there enough people interested in contributing to it.

I'd imagine libertarianism would count as "revolutionary" rightism, in which case even though I'm not really a libertarian I could still contribute content about the ideology.

Also, the 21st congress wasn't really thought up as a revolutionary leftist blog. It was said in the discussion page that social democrats/liberals were welcome to contribute content to it. It's just that none have as of yet. ;)

Most libertarians are not revolutionaries, and having two contradicting opinions within the same blog would be schizophrenic and confusing. Libertarians and the revolutionary right have about as much as common as the far-right has with communism.

So, is anybody interested in contributing articles, even if not regularly?

Still, it isn't fair that the left-wing blog is open to all left-wing persuasions and the right-wing one is open to... pretty much just fascism.

What other strand of right-wing thought could be considered revolutionary?

I was envisioning more of an educational blog to dispel many of the myths surrounding fascism, explaining its varieties and interpretations, its historical and political roots, and a modern perspective. The reason I requested a community blog is simply because I am not permitted to have a private member blog.

However, 21st Congress does appear to be restricted to the revolutionary left, at least in practice. The strands of the revolutionary left happen to be more well known, giving the appearance of greater inclusion.

Within the revolutionary right, however, there an equal variety of member ideologies. You would be hard-pressed, for example, to find many things national syndicalists and austerists agree on, to name one.

You will see more articles by social democrats in the weeks to come. ;)

In my personal view, however, social democracy is closer to leftist than Ron Paul would be to the radical right. In truth, most modern social democrats would actually fit into a radical right blog, while democratic socialists would be more at home on the leftist one.

I would be willing to participate and help as best I could.

I would.

I'm all for this idea myself. I suggest that we create this blog. No matter what political views, there should be freedom of information.

How many contributors would we need to warrant a blog?

I'd say five would be a good number. Obviously the more the better.

Title of blog should be "The Right Revolution"
