Wow, you know nothing about neoreaction or history of any sort. Capitalism existed in clearly anti-Enlightenment states like the Dutch East India Company in Indonesia and in Louisiana with the Company of One Hundred Associates. The general belief of neoreactionaries is that modern society has been turned into a state of chaos and even more chaos. For neoreactionaries, there is nothing utopian; if anything, a company could be seen as utopian, but I don’t think that’s true in the slightest. Regarding the idea of 'anything before the 1800s,' the American rebels existed around that time, and I surely don’t want them in charge. Reactionary societies existed after the 1800s, for example, the Russian Empire, which, even with the introduction of capitalism, still didn’t have a truly liberal society. Liberalism came much later, and even then, it wasn’t a perfect democracy. I don’t want liberty because liberty is indeed a liberal concept that I believe has failed in practice. Returning to the utopian issue, the liberal system is more utopian than anything, hoping for freedom under majority rule. Look where that got us: the opposite of freedom, which led to anarchy and tyranny.
