I am going to start publicly bullying guys who are excessively mean to promiscuous women or women with a promiscuous past, and will loudly encourage other men on the Right to do the same thing. One reason for this is that I am a novelty-seeking urbanite with high openness to experience, so these women comprise much of my friend group. I therefore feel a lot of loyalty to this type of person and want people to hear her side of the story. I just think they are going about it in a stupid, offensive, and counterproductive way.
The low openness and proudly middle class chuds and schoolmarms who constitute the Normie Right never optimize their rhetoric for persuasiveness and practical impact. Instead they mostly try to create space for themselves to bully people and feel superior, which to be fair is very useful for building internal solidarity, aligning norms, accruing status within a subculture, etc. I am addressing the current essay to this type of person, and will do my best to convince them a softer and gentler approach to degeneracy will generate more success.
The Walt Right is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber. I am extremely degenerate in my own behavior, but I seek a more restrained culture because that would make it a lot more fun to be an elite degenerate. It fills degenerate spaces with stupid and ugly people who kill the vibe because you have to explain everything to them. The thing is, wealthy and sophisticated elites will always figure out ways to be degenerate, because they are a lot more verbally talented than church ladies and their stolid bean counter husbands.
Las Vegas serves as a great example both of how cordoned off degeneracy enables the Tradlife and of how stupid poor people and even middle class normies will completely ruin degeneracy. Today Vegas is sanitized for mass tourism and manages to be extremely degenerate without being cool or sexy. Meanwhile, the people involved in the culture understood the risks and could deal with the negative consequences. Some lives were ruined for sure, but that just added to the transgressive appeal and taught everyone else what lines to draw.
And so you briefly had a glamorous place where rich guys could blow off steam and the rules were optimized to meet their needs. Such behavior horrifies middle class finger-waggers and Dave Ramsey enjoyers who could never afford to do this and pretend it has no appeal to decent people like themselves.
