Malcolm & Simone Collins sit down with Nux Taku for an epic, wide-ranging conversation on the evolution of the online right, anime-to-politics pipeline, faith, culture war, and building a better future.

Episode Transcript

Malcolm Collins: Hello, Simone and Nux. This is the collab that was promised 3,000 years ago. We are so excited to be here with you. And what I wanna go into with Nux is exploring the evolution of this sort of new online culture that we share that has become, I don’t know, the nerd right, the tech right, the new right, whatever people wanna call it.

Because if you were to go to me five years ago, right? E- even five years ago, I mean, imagine 10 years ago, and you’re like, “Okay, so who are, like, the right-wing thought leaders on the internet?” And it’s like, “Well, the one we’ve got on now is a, a Jewish VTuber who used to do hentai reviews.” “... And then we’ve got fox girls.

We’ve got, like, five fox girls.” And I’d be like, “Are they furries?” And they’d be like, “No, they’re not furries, but they are fox girls. And then we’ve got, like, this slime girl, but it’s very important that you know that she’s a chimera slime. Then we’ve got Commie Mommy,” and people would say- Elf

Simone Collins: slime. Yes.

Malcolm Collins: Simone, am I not coming through?

So Commie Mommy, and then people would be like, “Well, she, she can’t actually be, like, a socialist.” No, she’s actually a socialist, and she’s well-liked within our community.” And then it’s like, and then you got the top of the, the, the pack, and it’s this guy who, who lives like a homeless guy.

And I’d say to myself, like I’d be like, “Lives like a homeless guy? How does he not have any money?” It’s like, “Oh, no, he has tremendous amounts of money. Tremendous amounts.” But it’s so weird, this sort of world, and it’s a path that is not... Like, we, we in the past have tried to trace it from, like, the early online atheist communities to, like, the anti-feminist communities, then to, like, the anti-woke communities, and then to the modern right, and then it sort of, like, combined with parts of the red pill.

But you represent a different strand which comes out of the anime degen 4chan world, which we also come from as well. And I wanted to take this to sort of explore this journey, you as one of the leading content creators who sort of lived it, [00:02:00] and how your mind changed and the various points you had major inflections.

Nux Taku: Yeah, no, it’s de- it’s definitely a weird a weird area on the internet, for sure. I, I don’t know. For me it was, for me it was like, “Wow, I, I like making fun of retards and most of the retards are in politics. We have to start doing that.” I mean, that was the, that was kind of the thought process. Among other things, for sure.

I mean, I have to say, one of my biggest inspiration
