>people don't realize that Borges is right-wing as fuck

He hated communists and briefly supported the post-Peron junta. He disliked the fascists, but only because he thought they were intellectual lightweights.

Borges is actually probably the best 20th Century right-wing author. I guess you could make the case for Pound, but I'd put Borges above Pound, at least just barely.

>> No.15710455

>>15710433
On Hitler (Essay on impartiality, 1939):
>I precisely abhor Hitler because he does not share my faith in the German people; because he considers that to take revenge for 1918, there is no other pedagogy than barbarism, and no better stimulus than the concentration camps. Bernard Shaw, at that point, agrees with the melancholic Führer and thinks that only an incessant regime of marches, counter-marches and salutes to the flag can turn placid Germans into passable warriors ...
>If I had the tragic honor of being a German, I would not resign myself to sacrificing to the mere military efficiency, the intelligence and integrity of my country; if I had that of being English or French, I would appreciate the perfect coincidence of how the particular cause of my country perfectly matched with the entire cause of humanity.
>It is possible that a German defeat is the ruin of Germany; it is indisputable that his victory would be the ruin and debasement of the world. I am not referring to the imaginary danger of a South American colonial adventure; I think of the native imitators, the homemade Überinenschen, that inexorable chance would bring us.
>I hope that the years will bring us the fortunate annihilation of Adolf Hitler, the atrocious son of Versailles.

(Speech at the Grand Honor Prize of the Argentine Society of Writers, 1945):
>Mentally, Nazism is nothing other than the exacerbation of a prejudice that all men suffer from: the certainty of the superiority of their homeland, their language, their religion, their blood. Swollen by rhetoric, aggravated by fervor or disguised by irony, that candid conviction is one of the traditional themes of literature. No less candid than this subject would be any attempt to abolish it. However, we must not forget that a perverse sect has contaminated that old and innocent tenderness, and that to frequent them now, is to condone (or suggest) complicity. I have no vocation for heroism, no political faculty, but since 1939 I have tried not to write any line that would lead to this confusion. My life as a man is an unforgivable series of pettiness; I want my life as a writer to be a little more dignified.

Borges couldnt have been a fascist, because he wasn't a nationalist, and it's impossible to be a fascist without being a nationalist, nationalism is one of its basic ingredients.

He was a conservative, in that he kept many ideas that were acceptable in the XIXth century until his death in the 1980s.

They love them in the sense that one might love their dog, except there's also the guilt over slavery issue.

American culture is now centered around niggers. They have holidays for niggers. They killed hundreds of thousands of white men to free niggers. They listen to nigger music. They elect a nigger as their president. They dress and act like niggers. They draw the entirety of their modern culture from niggers. They post sassy gifs about niggers. They watch sportsball in worship of niggers. Their biggest event of the year involves throwing parties in honor of niggers playing sports. They use nigger slang like "bruh" and "thot". When you say "Martin Luther" they're not thinking of the father of protestantism. They're thinking of the nigger. Their cities are completely overrun with niggers. They worship their ZOGbot police force disproportionately filled with niggers and their global police force of soldiers filled with niggers. Their men sit around watching nigger ball while their women sit around watching nigger talk shows and fantasizing about nigger dick. They worship niggers like Muhammad Ali and Michael Jordan and Michael Jackson and the late Diana Ross while attacking the whites who actually built their country before niggers took over. Their movies are filled with niggers and their music charts are topped by niggers. They send niggers to the Olympics and celebrate when the niggers win because those niggers are true red blooded american niggers. They watch nigger porn to a point where "BBC" does not make them think of an international media company but about nigger penises instead. They will tell you how much they hate niggers and how the mutt's law meme is a stale joke and they are just pretending to love niggers but the evidence speaks for itself in that America has always been and will be a nation of nigger loving niggers.

reminds me of the Louis-Ferdinand-Céline quote:
>« La France hait d’instinct tout ce qui l’empêche de se livrer aux nègres. Elle les désire, elle les veut. Grand bien lui fasse ! qu’elle se donne ! par le Juif et le métis toute son histoire n’est au fond qu’une course vers Haïti. Quel ignoble chemin parcouru des Celtes à Zazou ! de Vercingétorix à Gunga Diouf.
Tout y est ! Tout est là ! Le reste n’est que farces et discours. La France brûle de finir nègre, je la trouve fort à point, pourrie, croulante de métis
Encore 50 ans, plus un seul français qui ne soit métis de quelque chose en « ide », araboïde, arménoïde, bicoïde, polonoïde… Et « français » bien entendu cent mille fois plus que vous et moi.
On a appris à l’européen à se détester, à haïr d’instinct tout ce qui l’empêche de se livrer aux nègres.
En l’aidant à éplucher ses pommes de terre, au sous-sol, j’entends encore sa voix et l’entendrai tant que je vivrai : « La révolution »… mais nous y assistons tous les jours… la seule, la vraie révolution, c’est le facteur nègre qui saute la bonne… dans quelques générations, la France sera métissée complètement, et nos mots ne voudront plus rien dire… que ça plaise ou pas, l’homme blanc est mort à Stalingrad. »

God this is fucking true and it's one of the things that really irritates me about modern /lit/. If you are a right-winger with an ounce of actual intelligence why the FUCK would you be a fascist? Fascists are morons. There's not a single fascist who stayed a fascist who wasn't as dumb as a brick. Mussolini is stupid and so is Hitler. Mein Kampf is basically written at a middle-school level. Celine hates Jews in a far more /lit/ way than Hitler ever could.

And all the actual smart people who started as fascists, like Carl Schmitt and Heidegger, eventually left the Nazi party because the Nazis fucking kicked them out. There was not a single actual intellectual left in the Nazis by about 1942 or so. Fascists are stupid. If you are smart you shouldn't be one, even if you're right-wing and hate Jews.

There's this short story he wrote about him having a conversation on a bench with his young self in which he basically disregards his old communist ideology. Basically, old Borges tells young Borges that the classes are mere abstractions, and that he has learned in time that the only real thing are individuals. It's called "El otro", from "El libro de arena", if anyone is interested.

Sorry but this is some extremely shitty revisionist take.

In the story, Borges' double is a symbol for his younger self, hardly an original concept. That younger self coincides with his Ultraist period, which Borges retracted from on several instances, for aesthetical reasons as well as how that "Nationalist" fervor of his youth could be used by right wing dimwits.

With the "masses and outcasts", Borges is clearly referring to the subjects of his "nationalistic" past, the poems and stories he wrote about malevos, criollos and gauchos. He's not talking about the working classes, at least not from a Communist perspective, though I suppose there were some Commies in the literary circles he frequented while in Spain and Europe. Moreover, I don't know of a single "working class" story by him (in the sense of Socialist literature).

Borges' young self believes all gauchos, malevos, cuchilleros, etc. are the same just because they share the same traditional background. Their quality of being oppressed and outcasts applies to any one of them (the "abstraction" old Borges refers to), so they're worthy of becoming the subject for a poem or whatever. To write about them, you could just pick any abstract desires or inner monologue they may have, which is why older Borges talks about how such a dying man would think of a "picture of his childhood" or some ordinary gossip about their sergeant, to make the point those men are just men, not symbols.

With the bit about "Only individuals exist—if, in fact, anyone does", it's clearly a metaphysical point. In the story he cites Dostoevsky The Double. In the story's setting, Borges own Double appears before him. He's not talking about egocentrism or individualism. He's talking about how one's self is so fragmented (a very common theme of his, one his own father introduced him to). He's questioning the label "individual" from a rhetorical point of view, not the concept or any dumb sociopolitical shit like that.

>With the "masses and outcasts", Borges is clearly referring to the subjects of his "nationalistic" past
You are wrong, mate. His first books were written in Europe, one of them was Los ritmos rojos which was basically a pro-soviet pamphlet. He later disowned it. The young Borges from the story is from that time, considering he thinks he is sitting on a bench in Geneva. His nationalistic phase came when he came back to Argentina, but that'd be a later Borges, not the one in the story. He's disowning his socialist past like did disown his socialist literature phase. By the way, he cites Dosto's Demons, not The double, which would have been just too obvious.

Anyone wants to collaborate with some Spanish, French and Italian translations for a Borges related project?

I'm putting together an English version of the Library of Babel anthology series he did during the 80s, but I'm missing a few stories by Villiers l'Isle-Adam, Léon Bloy and Giovanni Papini, as well as some short stories by Argentine writers.

Okay, perhaps he was making more of a point against Communism, but since he disowned both experiences and they're very close together in time, it's almost the same. The second part about individuals applies to either concept. Later in the story he also disowns Ultraism (the part about metaphors).
>By the way, he cites Dosto's Demons, not The double, which would have been just too obvious.

You said Mediterraneans like Italians and Portuguese weren't white, though. There was the implication that only Germanics were white.

This tbqh. All the fascists I knew either became socialists, became monarchists/autocrats, or stayed dumb as fuck.
