So yesterday Hanania restacked a song I’d written about Job Stacking and asked his readership for their thoughts on the practice.
This elicited a characteristically schoolmarmish response from our good friend Vaish:
In this article I’ll show that Vaish’s arguments here are embarrassing and wrong and ought to be forcefully rejected by any consistent advocate of vitalist meritocracy.
Objection 1 - Job Stacking is Illegal
We see from the outset Vaish is deeply confused about how the law actually works.
To begin with, job stacking is clearly not “illegal” in the criminal sense of the word; you would never go to prison for something like this.
It is strictly in the civil sense (i.e. breach of contract) where there might be some gray area depending on the precise wording of the agreement you signed before starting.
But even then the legal system is moving in a direction very friendly to the job stacker, and 99% of the time the very worst thing that could happen is they fire you.
That’s because a contractual provision is only as strong as your ability to enforce it, and if you take basic precautions it’s almost impossible for a firm to prove you’re double dipping. And even if they *could* prove it, they’re not about to eat litigation costs and reputational risk to sue you for damages when they could easily just fire your ass and move on. And that’s doubly true if we’re talking about some podunk IC role.
Of course that’s not to say there isn’t *any* risk to job stacking. Obviously to keep fresh opportunities coming you’ll need to manage your reputation effectively, and that requires canny networking strategies alongside a serious investment in opsec and infosec.
That’s why my inner circle is developing bespoke resources for Our Guys to help them build those skills; to achieve my ultimate vision for this thing I’ll need my men to operate a lot more adroitly than the ankle-biting soyjaks on r/overemployed.
Objection 2 - Outsourcing Work is Illegal (?)
This point is honestly really bizarre and I’m not sure why Vaish even included it.
The overwhelming majority of job stackers never outsource their work, as that approach is obviously much more illegal than vanilla job stacking and would significantly increase the risk of getting caught.
It also doesn’t add much value, since the job stacking meta for STEM guys typically involves securing easy IC roles far below one’s skill level at glacial megacorporations where it’s easy to get ignored. In those positions a talented midlevel employee can often get away with working only 3-5 hours per week, which isn’t enough work to profitably delegate given the need for onboarding, training, review, etc.
Now it might make sense if you can secure five positions or more simultaneously, and can also delegate work to someone unusually easy / cheap to onboard and train—think a live-in girlfriend or roommate or teenage kid. Hell, I’ve even proposed that right wing guys find and cultivate Zoomer “apprentices” to form a two-man shop that can eventually be upscaled into a proper consultancy that operates fully transparently.
But any such arrangement would obviously require a lot of trust and special care, and would only make sense for a small fraction of the job stacking community.
On the whole it’s not really relevant to our argument.
Objection 3 - Job Stacking Must Involve Amoral Greed!
Apparently Vaish doesn’t think much of the ideological superstructure to my project.
He feels I should own up to being an amoral mercenary who is “doing it for money.”
The problem is I am indeed doing it for the money—but specifically because I want guys like me to channel that money into hard material power structures that can disempower people like Vaish and contain the influence of his terrible ideas.
That’s why I’ve been so selective with who I let into BisBuc. The explicit purpose is to financially empower right wing white men (plus a few nonwhite / centrist allies like my Brahmin BFF
) by practicing covert ethnic nepotism a la Jews and Indians.And not as part of some gay oppression narrative either; as I say in Pillage…
I want to inspire my readers (and particularly listless Zoomer guys who feel disempowered / repressed by institutions that openly despise heterosexual white men) to develop a greater sense of agency. That means no more wallowing in faggotty self-pity, and no more weighing yourself down with a low status victim mindset unbecoming of a proud White man. You’re going to stop acting like Rosa Parks and start acting like Hernán Cortés or Vasco da Gama or Francis Drake.
My guys are going to get fabulously rich by employing the same tactics as H-1Bs: taking over departments and filling them up with our own people; flagrantly lying on our CVs with fabricated experience and semi-bogus credentials; outsourcing work to family members and roommates… absolutely nothing is off the table.
At the end of the day I’m not a moralizer by temperament, and even when I was a white nationalist I never resented Jews and Indians for their obvious ingroup bias.
What I *did* resent was other White people not doing the same thing.
If I’ve learned anything in my three decades it’s that trust is by far the most valuable commodity in business, and shared membership in an ingroup is one of the quickest ways to establish such trust. As Whites become a minority in America (and right wing White men in particular are displaced and culturally aggrieved by DEI) it makes perfect sense for us to close ranks and project power through groups like BisBuc.
This isn’t a matter of “morality” so much as taking the necessary measures to ensure we keep our slice of the pie same as everyone else. And you don’t need to care about the Fourteen Words etc. to support this, because when other tribes practice ethnic nepotism a policy of individualism will always you screw you over, even as an individual.
That means some level of ingroup solidarity and outgroup exclusion will be necessary going forward. But unlike Spencer et al I don’t adopt an intransigent line on this, and any institution I control will always make room for allies who are explicitly pro-White.
For instance, there are tons of Jews like my bro
who basically see themselves as White or White-aligned in the context of American racial politics. Unlike the Boomer Neocon Jews who fucked over Ron Paul in 2012, these Jews didn’t grow up with neurotic Holocaust Grandmas cultivating an unhealthy paranoia about White ingroup sentiment, so they never really shapeshift or tone police in bad faith. They’re just good at business and rhetoric, which is why excluding them is very dumb.Similarly, there’s an increasingly large cohort of second generation Indians like Vivek and my good friend Rajeev whose parents came here when our immigration policy was much less retarded. Because of this they are aggressively American in their ideals and sensibilities—something lots of nationalists tragically fail to appreciate, probably because they don’t understand how the relatively syncretic and pluralistic nature of Hinduism makes it unusually amenable to American patriotism / assimilationism.
Guys like Rajeev have vastly more in common with me than they do with H-1Bs and it makes perfect sense for them to join my project. Obviously this will irritate some of my old white nationalist friends who remain committed to racial totalism, but if we’re being completely honest here, the sort of WNs who can’t even work transactionally with Jews and Indians to make money tend to be impotent broke boys or pretentious trust fund babies, and probably couldn’t handle the job stacking lifestyle to begin with.
In the long run my ideas will inevitably win out, simply because fellers like me are much better at accruing resources and building out the kind of scalable institutions people want to join for immense material benefit.
The thing that disgusted me about Vaish’s comment more than anything else was his servile bootlicking—I’ve never seen someone act so grotesquely obsequious to power.
Modern neoliberal capitalism is simply littered with structural asymmetries between workers and capital that make it impossible to negotiate transparently and in good faith. Consider that the company has an HR department that lies to you incessantly on behalf of the firm. Why on earth shouldn’t you lie back, simply to level the playing field and make things remotely equitable?
People like Vaish always forget that we have at-will employment in America. That means the firm owes nothing to you and you owe them absolutely nothing in return.
Recall that if you don’t financially insulate yourself via job stacking your firm has the power to fire you and starve your family whenever they want. Against that kind of asymmetry anything you do is justified if you manage to get away with it.
And when it comes specifically to breaking a non-compete (a repulsively anticapitalist mode of regulatory capture adored by wealthy rent seekers) it’s not just permissible, it’s fucking obligatory. Every agentic and capable man has a duty to the vitality of his civilization to wipe his ass with every non-compete he signs. The courts are backing us up on this and it’s time for young guys to step down hard on the Gen X capitalist’s neck.
None of this is even remotely dishonorable, and none of these entitled corporate faggots need Vaish or anyone else defending their honor. That’s because everything I’m advocating is already priced into the company’s Risk Management framework.
I know that because I literally did this in my days as a financebro Big Four consultant.
Every capably run company explicitly games around the expectation of thoroughgoing employee selfishness, which means every employee has a moral obligation to himself, his family, and his people to behave just as ruthlessly in return.
But of course Vaish sneers at this idea, because he worships power like a woman.
He thinks a massive hegemonic institution like an international megacorporation inherently has some kind of “legitimacy” the little guy should respect because at some point he was muscled into some retarded unenforceable contract.
Ultimately this ideology boils down to Might Makes Right—but only some of the time. Because might is actually wrong, you see, if the little guy ever manages to win.
It’s a low testosterone and unagentic mentality that chafes at the inherent volatility of power structures and will always try to stifle disruption. Vaish abhors the job stacker for the same reason Ottoman and Mughal despots once despised the enterprising Portuguese mariners who undercut their extractive trade monopolies.
The man’s spirit is positively drenched in this pathetic servile bootlicking mindset that always gets civilizations conquered and is the very antithesis of vitalist meritocracy.
This kind of thinking simply has no place in the modern world. It renders men hapless and defanged in an increasingly volatile and asymmetrical economy while leaving the most credulous and principled among us wide open for exploitation.
At the end of the day Vaish belongs to another civilization, so while I certainly don’t like to see him humiliate himself in this way, it’s ultimately none of my business.
But the terms change when the conversation happens within our people, and I will *never* tolerate this sort of attitude from a White man. Our people are not Hobbits, and whenever we start adopting Hobbitish attitudes it needs to be bullied out of us.
Far too many sheltered Cishajnal Whites in the interior of this country think like Vaish, which is why they’re getting displaced and outcompeted by foreigners.
They aren’t adaptable, they aren’t exploratory, and they sure as hell aren’t ruthless. And frankly that’s a sickening betrayal of our race’s history as conquerors and pirates.
What would Hadrian say if he heard you whining that you can’t compete with Jews?
What would Robert Clive or Alexander think if he heard you complaining that the Brahmin tech lead at your firm is replacing everyone with Indians?
To all my white nationalist critics who suspect me of being a mischling or secretly Indian or something: how about you stop whining like an impotent bitch and instead start to build some hard and robust material power structures in the real world?
For a bunch of guys who claim to love Nietzsche I never see any of you exercising your Will to Power in an interesting or impressive way.
Making money, pooling resources, and seizing hard institutional power is ultimately a lot more important than talking philosophy in an echo chamber, and until WNs internalize this fact they’ll always get dominated by the people who already have.
The path I’m offering is a way out of the desert. It worked for me and it’s working for my first wave of buccaneers, who will be publishing their testimonials in the coming weeks alongside a comprehensive report on both the resources currently available and our medium-term plans for the group. Once this is out I expect a lot of Our Guys to get incredibly excited about the long-term possibilities, because establishing a robust and secure professional network would be an absolute game changer for the Right.
Because don’t get me wrong—there’s absolutely nothing wrong with focusing on ideas, and I obviously love deep philosophical discussion as much as anyone. But when Alexander wanted to conquer India he didn’t spend all day in the agora bitching about Porus like today’s white nationalists will bitch about Brahmin tech leads.
He marched his men into the subcontinent and he made Porus his satrap.
I don't see how "you're doing this for the money" is supposed to be a criticism. No shit it's about money? That's the whole reason anyone bothers to go to work in the first place. It sure isn't for fun or else they wouldn't have to pay us!
This really is a fish doesn't know the word for water situation. Vaish likely hasn't had long gaps in employment, or the fear that he could suddenly lose his job without his network able to pipeline him into a new position. This all depends on luck. Merit only takes you so far. I thought it was merit, but it was really just wind blowing in the right direction that landed me some very cool internships and then acceptance to a master's program (not STEM or finance related however) from an easily global top ten university. But the remnants of the 2008 financial crisis killed all that momentum, and I still haven't recovered. You can never take career employment for granted. The debt bubble could easily burst again at any time. If you aren't maximizing contingencies, you're leaving yourself vulnerable to events beyond your control. If you seriously are getting paid full time for a job that only takes you five hours a week to do, that's really all on your employer. And one bound to eventually cut headcount when they need to seek efficiencies again.
