The reason you never read parallel pieces by people in the alt-right is that in its classical presentation becoming an SJW equips you with certain tools that are necessary (tho not sufficient) for the transition to fluid mode—tools which an alt-right ideology cannot provide.

Being an SJW is not the only way to learn your way around those tools, of course. But you won’t find them anywhere on the alt-right.

I think arguably I'm an example of going the other way. Not from alt right but from a much more Science! and objective of reality viewpoint to something... Well I wouldn't really describe myself as in the metarationality camp but a not too distant cousin of it.

But I guess I'm not really so much going in a direction as constantly bumbling around the borderlands of all the different ideologies so maybe I don't really count

I tend not to join groups and just make friends with a bunch of people in them, observe their behaviour, and cherry pick the best bits of knowledge I can get out of them without really committing, then integrate it into a mildly idiosyncratic worldview

So my core philosophy, to the degree that I have one, is a weird accumulation of feminism, internet rationalism, classical philosophy, and a whole bunch of other random stuff all duct taped together into a vaguely functional shape.

Also I still haven't read Keagan. Or
@Meaningness on Keagan. Probably would disqualify me from club membership even if I wanted it

Yes this is a very clear explanation. I second the recommendation!
