'Red-pilled' Silicon Valley Zionist Atheist Embraced by 'Big Tent' MAGA Trump Admin
"Little Tech" is the new face of MAGA. Embrace the subversion of America First.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Red Pill Media reached out to Paleocon Publishing to further examine how a Jewish Silicon Valley techie and supposed academic is making the headlines while being largely endorsed by Republicans.

NYT magazine cover showcases the outlet's interview with Yarvin in Jan '25.

Curtis Yarvin, the man in question, may be a unique figure in the new and ever-expanding "big tent" MAGA, but, at the very same time, he is rather stale as a typical example of America's political class adjoining with legacy media.

Yarvin, the author of the blog "Unqualified Reservation" and later the Substack "Gray Mirror," lies within many in the middle of the media's labeling scope of the Alt-Right and, similarly, the Dissident Right. His "far right" philosophy argues democracy is simply a failed experiment and should be replaced with a monarchy akin to the governing structures of corporations. Yarvin's political writings and discourses have garnered him the reach of those in alternative media, like fellow Zionist Jew Michael Malice, along with "Small Tech" billionaire investors and those in the Trump administration.

He reportedly has secured connections to GOP politicians and strategists while amassing his influence in Silicon Valley via promoting his startup, Urbit, a networked computer platform.

Those within his sphere of influence include rightwing commentator Steve Bannon and current Vice President JD Vance, according to The New York Times.

Yarvin's ideology has been described by reporters and academics alike as founded upon neo-monarchism, neo-reactionism, anti-egalitarianism, anti-democracy, anti-liberalism and neocameralism. In some shape, they all messily form the unison we will later discuss – his core messaging on political power and governing.

Politico's piece on VP JD Vance's ideology includes that of Yarvin.

DARK ENLIGHTENMENT OF 'THE CATHEDRAL'

So, how do Yarvin's ideologies align with Republicans' supposed push towards "America First" or MAGA?

One perception could be due to his specified political targets. He believes real political power is yielded in the States by what he calls "the Cathedral" – certainly not a synagogue or a mosque. His message is thus more palatable to the many Zionists in the media, in power, and advocacy campaigns with similar goals via NGOs.

As written in New York Magazine:

'The Cathedral' is an informal cabal of universities and the press, which essentially collude with their influence to sway public opinion. Yarvin believes, in essence, that this 'Cathedral' functions in the same way as religious authorities by deliverance and, ultimately, the internalization by the general populace.

If it's not about a palatable message, could it be his grandeur as the so-called father of the "Dark Enlightenment"? Or could it be from the election of Barack Hussein Obama?

2008 was the year America sought change, however it wasn't a positive change for all.

Scholar Joshua Tait wrote in Mencius Moldbug and Neocreeation that this moment in which the first black man became president reinforced his belief that progress would always be progressive in a left-wing society, asserting the U.S. in this way of theory. And to add to it, he believes the ruling class or "Brahmin," to be progressive.

Essentially, Yarwin is saying conservativism cannot exist in advancing American societies. It's doomed to fail at the foot of the inherent liberal nature of progressivism by the Brahmin – the elite ruling class.

ATHEIST JEW, PAPA COMMIE, CEO-MONARCH, WWII REVISIONIST

Let's consider Yarvin's upbringing. He was born to a secular Jewish family, whose father reportedly sided with communists. Herbert, the communist sympathizer, even worked as a diplomat for the U.S.

It's a bit strange to see anti-communist Republicans overlook this connection, but perhaps they do it more often than we know for similar people – those with Bolshevik roots.

Yarvin is said to never have a clear point to his ideology, obfuscating almost as to deflect attention away from him and his background.

Returning to Yarvin's life mission – replacing America's democracy – he feels the government should be replaced with sovereign joint-stock corporations whose shareholders elect a total-power executive. It would be a "CEO-monarch." Yarvin sees much of his dreams in the Chinese and with Deng Xiaoping as he pushes for market-oriented authoritarianism.

Tait wrote in his book that Yarvin "... imagines a radical libertarian utopia with maximum freedom in all things except politics."

On social issues, he is far from conservative. He favors same-sex marriage, freedom of religion and private use of drugs. However, Tait regards much of his stances as contradictory:

He advocates hierarchy, yet deeply resents cultural elites. His political vision is futuristic and libertarian, yet expressed in the language of monarchy and reaction. He is irreligious and socially liberal on many issues but angrily anti-progressive. He presents himself as a thinker searching for truth but admits to lying to his readers, saturating his arguments with jokes and irony. These tensions indicate broader fissures among the online Right.

To the more unorthodox inquiries, Yarvin told author Corey Penn about "World War II mythology," elaborating, as a Jew, that Hitler's invasions were in self-defense. Yarvin continued by blaming it on the misinformation surrounding the war being pushed by American "communists," who promote political correctness as an "elaborate mechanism for persecuting racists and fascists."

Is this a psyop?

SILICON VALLEY, PETER THIEL & COINBASE

It has been reported that Yarvin's messaging garnered support from right-wing libertarians and paleolibertarians. Billionaire investor and vocal Zionist Peter Thiel, who recently jumped aboard the "MAGA train," has echoed Yarvin's sentiments as well. Thiel has been an essential connection for him, as he was an investor in Yarvin's startup Tlon.

According to The Times, another new Trump supporter from Silicon Valley, who was against the president's immigration policy has now cued Trump's ear to Yarvin's logos. Former CTO of Coinbase, Balaji S. Srinivasan, advocated for Yarvin several times and had said in a 2013 speech a "society run by Silicon Valley [...] an opt-in society, ultimately outside the U.S., run by technology."

Liberal reporter Taylor Lorenz recently had a conniption on her podcast when talking about Srinivasan. She referred to his philosophy as "tech Zionism," which details that Silicon Valley will dominate at the top of the governmental food chain.

'FAR RIGHT' YARVIN RECANTING RACE REALISM

Figureheads have described Yarvin as "Alt-Right." However, he maintains a distance from the movement and is Jewish. He has even assisted former Breitbart News reporter Milo Yiannopoulos to deal with so-called "neo-Nazis":

The way some perfectly tailored high-communist NYT reporter handles a herd of greasy anarchist hippies. Patronizing contempt. Your heart is in the right place, young lady; now get a shower and shave those pits.

Yarvin has been portrayed by the media in the past as holding race-realism views, although ignoring aspects within his particular ethnic group, much like the so-called paleoconservative Steve Sailer.

Yarvin, like many others associated with the Right, denounced perceived racism and any elements of White nationalism. He compounded his defense by claiming that he was not an anti-Semite, although he is ethnically Jewish. That doesn't make much sense, but there is an audience for this – those in the Trump administration and the Zionist billionaires funneling money into Silicon Valley. MAGA will undoubtedly overlook this, too, but out of sheer ignorance.

CONNECTIONS & CONCLUSIONS

The media, entirely out of character [joke], gobbled up claims that supposed Alt-Right Yarwin was widely embraced by the then White House Chief Strategist, Steve Bannon. It was later debunked by Vox; however, it shouldn't be surprising if Yarvin was in communication, especially now.

Still, he has a curious connection with X-user Bronze Age Pervert (BAP). Politico identified him as Romanian-American Jew 44-year-old Costin Vlad Alamariu. He essentially serves millionaires and billionaires as the Jewish right-wing thought leader, keeping at bay any mumbling of Zionist Israel along with the rising anti-Zionism sentiment. This, in itself, puts BAP at odds with America Firsters through his unabashed ethnic and dual loyalty.

Yarvin has pushed BAP's content even so far as to the White House, providing a copy of his book Bronze Age Mindset to the then senior national security official Michael Anton. Anton is now in consideration to be the U.S. State Department Director of Policy Planning, according to The Hill. Politico and Huffington Post asserted that the book even led to a cult following among staffers of the Trump White House and on Capitol Hill.

Political scientist Matt McManus concluded:

BAP is not really a conservative or even a reactionary. In fact, he despises conservatives almost as much as he detests the Left.

So, let's get this straight.

This dark, shadowy figure behind the new big-tent "MAGA" is a Silicon Valley techie linked to several billionaire Zionist Jews, the now-VP and almost all America First dissenters.

Yarvin's push is fundamentally based upon his abhorrence of religion as an atheist. He went so far as to name the States' ruling class as "the [Christian] Cathedral" while maintaining his in-group nationalism as a Zionist. Yarvin once said, "Israel's historical Ashkenazi ruling class is culturally American."

Here is another depiction of Yarvin's Jewish superiority over Gentiles.

Behind all the smoke and mirrors of this so-called intellectual, "MIGA" (Make Israel Great Again) seems to be alive and well as the central initiative for this administration, just like the rest in the past.

Yarvin and his squad of Silicon Valley techies and entrepreneurs are the motivators to deter MAGA from its one goal – America First and to Make America Great Again. In fact, Yarvin developed links to BAP's @bronzeageperv before 2017. The then Twitter method wasn't working as more and more BAP accounts were banned, so of course, when Elon Musk took over X, BAP was reinstated.

Elon Musk challenged AfD leader Alice Weidel on her support for Israel.

BAP firmly believes that his growing followers "restored structure to a movement that commonly refers to itself as the 'authentic' right-wing Twitter." And with that, BAP frequently condemns the alt-right leadership, including Richard Spencer, Nick Fuentes and the groypers.

It is also reported that Thiel is involved not only with Yarvin but also with BAP. He references one of BAP's talks in his speeches to conservative audiences.

The triangle of influence also had Yarvin gift essayist Michael Anton BAP's Bronze Age Mindset for the Claremont Review of Books. Jewish political commentator Darren Beattie had also encouraged Anton to read it.

The Claremont Institute subsequently initiated a symposium on Anton's review for their online publication, The American Mind. That is, although critics mopped the floor with the book hitting at its "rambling," "illogical arguments," and as a "tedious read."

What is a bit strange is that BAP's content was never lost, even with a Twitter ban. In 2023, Josh Vandiver of Ball State University noticed:

[D]espite multiple instances of deplatforming from social media, BAP’s following is now large and we can identify 'BAPism' as a masculinist subculture.

Since the Hamas attack in October 2023, a micro-community of far-right Jews espousing views such as Kahanism while mimicking Bronze Age Pervert's imagery emerged among social media platforms. They dubbed themselves the "Bronze Age Zionists."

Writer Ben Lorber points out that they frequently find themselves spurned by other segments of the dissident right for being Jewish, leaving them "in an awkward position."

Nick Fuentes goes off on many of the hidden Israeli agents planted in the GOP.

Bronze Age Pervert is indeed a Zionist who has praised Israel for being "national socialist through and through" while arguing that Western nationalists should be indifferent to it.

But how did BAP avoid these suspensions while retaining his influences and essays? Perhaps it could be his friends in Silicon Valley who are slowly emerging through the woodwork in prep for the next Trump administration.

None of these shady characters are MAGA, America First or American nationalist. It is straightforward but not often heard. These folk are Jewish nationalists or Zionists with primary loyalties to the secular State of Israel. Having that pseudo-biblical loyalty, wealth and a 120 IQ may just be enough for you to be seated in Congress or the Senate. If not, some advisory or influencer role.

The great deceivers here seem to have the upper hand on the 2nd Trump administration. However, anything can happen due to the president's unrelenting need for loyalty. The tides turned for Israel not long after the attack by Hamas, too.

So, again, anything can happen. It's crucial that believers in the United States know that and don't relinquish before it is over. Because it certainly is not even in despair.
