I've noticed you have been reading The Machiavellians recently, so I thought you might be interested in a piece I wrote for The People's Samizdat called Organic Democracy: thepeoplessamizdat.substack.com/p/organic-democracy-a-21st-century . To pump my tires a little, I've also published a few popular academically-oriented pieces in the dissident space, such as a review of The Transgender-Industrial Complex for Counter-Currents, and the following at Unz: unz.com/article/oppression-by-orgasm/ . I think you may find Organic Democracy interesting, as it picks up where Michels and Pareto left off with the theories of Schmitt and Hitler, particularly as they formulated a theory of democracy from the right. I argue that there is a precedent for direct democracy within 20th-century nationalist political theory (Pareto, Michels, Schmitt, etc.), and that the concept of direct democracy could be a useful tool for us today. I am not arguing that direct democracy is an end in itself, or against the necessity of leadership; I am just arguing that the concept could be both a strategic rhetorical device and political tool for dissidents today. Anyways, if you do take a look, please let me know what you think. I am very interested in what you have to say. Thank you very much for your time
