I am not a member of the New Right, and definitely not a member of the Alt Right, but I will say there is some fun French literature associated with the New Right. Regarding Jean Raspail’s 1973 novel Le Camp des Saints, if that novel was made in China, they would have likely written in an ending where the nation is saved from what they see as catastrophe, because in China they see information as not merely something that conveys information, but something that also guides Society. That Raspail included a failure of his aspirations at the end, would be seen by Chinese Taoists as almost being like creating an inauspicious symbol, yet some Westerners might be incredulous by this concept, maybe I don't know. In China art is associated with political power.

Unfortunately for this thesis, Marxism and Fascism are not polar opposites, bur rather cojoined Siamese Twins with severe sibling issues from sharing the same birth canal contemporaneously.
