The Last Days of “Cuckservatism”

Young, computer savvy right-wingers have dubbed Republicans who espouse generally liberal views “cuckservatives” — enemies of conservatism and dupes of the Left. ...

Cuckservative: How “Conservatives” Betrayed America, by John Red Eagle and Vox Day, Kouvola, Finland: Castalia House, 2015, 190 pages, eBook.

You’ve probably heard the term “RINO” for “Republicans In Name Only” or NeoCon for “Neoconservatives,” but this past summer, a new word entered the political lexicon. In July of 2015, the anti-conservative establishment slur “cuckservative” went viral in a big way. It’s not clear what precipitated it, but the hashtag #cuckservative began trending on Twitter. The Twitter feeds of right-wing pundits were swarmed with commenters using the term. The term was almost exclusively used against Republican pundits who express support for open borders and amnesty. Anyone who tried to fight the cuckservative label was met with overwhelming ridicule from an army of online critics. It even got national coverage from mainstream news organizations, with the Daily Beast website labeling it as a “Right-Wing Civil War.”

Cuckservative: How “Conservatives” Betrayed America is an eBook that tries to explain the underlying arguments behind the term and its implication for the future of politics. As Cuckservative explains, the term is a combination of cuckold and conservative. Cuckold is “an archaic term that … means the husband of an unfaithful wife, usually in reference to him raising children that aren’t his own,” the implication being that today’s conservatives are “being cucked” by liberals who are using immigration policy to demographically replace the electorate in order to secure a permanent left-wing majority.
