You seem to be quite interested in defending groypers and their views, and critical of people like Ben Shapiro and TPUSA. I was wondering if you'd be interested in discussing these issues further. A while ago, I set up a Debate page just for that purpose. Here it is. Feel free to add your commentary. ---BernieandTrumpFan (talk) 01:50, November 13, 2021 (EST)

Hi, I see that the Minuteman bot has been giving you some trouble. Whether or not the quote posted on "Richard Bertrand Spencer‎" is acceptable for this audience, is a question for admins, but is outside the purview of Minuteman's purpose. It shouldn't give you any more trouble, as long as nothing too crazy happens. Apologies for the inconvenience. --DavidB4 (TALK) 19:08, January 28, 2022 (EST)

Oh, yeah, that pesky Minuteman! I get it; the quote is quite vulgar; however, imo it's definitely something important to mention. Vince Did 7-14 Christ Is King! 22:24, January 28, 2022 (EST)

Neocons, Neolibs, and the "Eurasian Balkans"

Good afternoon, Vince. I'm reaching out to you today to discuss the motivations of neocon/neolib foreign policy.

One thing I believe a lot of paleocons get wrong when it comes to critiquing neocon/neolib foreign policy is that they often neglect to go deep into the geopolitical aspects of said policy. For this reason they end up giving the impression that they are critiquing said policy from a purely ideological standpoint, which ends up turning off many undecideds who could've been persuaded on this highly important issue otherwise. But perhaps you could buck that trend, with my help.

I'll start off that help by asking a single question: Have you ever head of Zbigniew Brzezinski's book The Grand Chessboard, and the "Eurasian Balkans" theory it emphasizes?--Geopolitician (talk) 16:06, February 13, 2022 (EST)

Haha, good afternoon. My name isn't actually Vince, it's a reference to paleocon Vince Dao. No, I haven't read the book in question. What's it about? I'd also like to better understand your first point; why are we turning off undecideds by criticizing neocon/neolib foreign policy? From what I can tell, our main criticism is of interventionism and endless war, which have proven to have horrible repercussions. Vince Did 7-14 Christ Is King! 18:17, February 13, 2022 (EST)
Wait, so you're not Vince Dao? No joke, no sarcasm, I literally thought you were. Ah, well. I'll continue this conversation anyway.
So to clarify my first point, I was arguing that many undecideds see only ideological arguments within paleocon critiques of neocon/neolib foreign policy, and that they are left unpersuaded for precisely that reason. The only things they seem to get out of those critiques are "George Washington wouldn't want this," and "this is not in our national interests, whatever they are."
The keys to overcoming this impasse are as follows: (1) State our core national interests, which are to secure our borders and ensure that our neighbors are not controlled by hostile entities; (2) Identify the geopolitical goals of the neocons and neolibs, which by the way are not "to spread democracy" or "to spread liberalism," but rather the goals set up Brzezinski in his book; and (3) State why neocon/neolib foreign policy interferes with our ability to either protect our borders or keep our neighbors friendly. And as a bonus, it would be preferable to state why neocon/neolib foreign policy is morally objectionable, which by the way it is, for reasons I'll elaborate upon when I explain the "Eurasian Balkans" concept (I'll get to that later tonight; I gotta get back to watching the Super Bowl.
