Far-right are nostalgic for a world that never was. Far-left are hopeful for a world that can never be.

If the far-right's motive is a majority-white ethnostate, we technically did used to be ~90% white and prioritized those of European descent in our immigration. Does that not count?

White ethnostates were once a thing, but they were far from the utopias some might imagine them to have been.

I think it's disingenuous to say they want it simply for the common 'utopia end-goal' syndrome. They want it for genetic preservation (not strictly for that, but it is at the top of the list).

It's not disingenuous. The whole reason they wish to preserve "white genes" is that they believe that this gene-stock is superior, and will lead directly to a flowering of civilisation. But they base this view on a romanticised reading of the past.

Yea, that's not true. Wanting to preserve a genetic stock doesn't implicitly mean that they think it's 'superior', and most all the leading Alt-Right figures will concede the faults of white people, or where they are inferior to other races (Higher Asian average IQ as an example)

If that's the case, why not just mix with East Asians to objectively improve their lot? There's a reason they want to keep their blood free of East Asian "taint": they don't judge superiority on IQ scores, but on a romantic notion that whites have a unique destiny among peoples.
