Born 1981, Jorjani is a nerdy-looking half-Persian (actually Turkic Qajar) New Yorker who was a key part of Richard Spencer's failed attempt to centralise the Alt-Right just after he shot to global fame with "Heilgate."
In January 2017, Jorjani, along with Daniel Friberg of Arktos and Henrik Palmgren of Red Ice Radio joined Spencer to launch the AltRight Corporation and its website altright.com. At the time, Jorjani was expected to provide links to the Trump administration through his Iranian dissident connections, as well as funding that never materialised.
At the time Jorjani was a low-ranking academic (New Jersey Institute of Technology) associated with Arktos. In September 2017, he was cancelled after his links with the Alt-Right became known and a video emerged of him appearing to praise Hitler. This was recorded by Patrik Hermansson, an openly gay Swedish "antifascist" activist, who also got some interesting footage of the previously elusive Greg Johnson around the same time.
In the video Jorjani made predictions that were literally "on the money":

“We will have a Europe in 2050 where the banknotes have Adolf Hitler, Napoleon Bonaparte and Alexander the Great. And Hitler will be seen like that, like Napoleon, like Alexander.”
To be fair, this is hardly different from what JFK wrote in his diary in 1945:
"You can easily understand how that within a few years Hitler will emerge from the hatred that surrounds him now as one of the most significant figures who ever lived. He had boundless ambition for his country which rendered him a menace to the peace of the world, but he had a mystery about him in the way he lived and in the manner of his death that will live and grow after him. He had in him the stuff of which legends are made."
But, then again JFK was never closely associated with Richard Spencer in his florid Nazi phase or carved stylised swastikas on his Halloween pumpkins:

In more recent times, Jorjani is mainly associated with his geopolitical pseudo-religion "Promethianism," which calls for a kind of "spiritual awakening" of "Faustian" Aryan man (including Iran, Jorjani's paternal homeland). In this scheme Islam and "other Abrahamic religions" (code for you know who) are the main foes.
Jorjani, with his sub-Evolian, post-Nietzschean, crypto-Zoroastrian nonsense is the perfect example of what I refer to as "ideological extraneity" in the Dissident Right, namely an almost autistic obsession with abstruse convoluted pseudo-intellectualism and fake spirituality. A brief explanation of this concept can be found here:
Almost every Rightist feels obliged to base his right-wing views on some abstruse philosophical basis, something that presents him as a "higher intellect" or "spiritual being." In other words, it is a form of social signalling – and a rather pointless one when you are part of a dying society partially destroyed by your attempt to socially signal in it.Recently we have seen the rise of a Promethean tendency in the Dissident Right, which may or may not be a reworking of the earlier Nietzschean tendency. Then there is also Duginism and Heideggerianism, of which the less said the better, Trad Catholicism, and of course Evolian traditionalism, Spenglerism, and a lot of other nonsense imported from various Eastern mysticisms.But contrast all this over-intellectualized garbage with what the average Right Winger actually wants, which, in its essence, is relatively simple and obvious. We tend to want a nation with clear borders and a clear identity that we can feel comfortable belonging to. As part of this we also want a society that rewards excellence and protects the genetic and demographic health of the group. Non-suicidal fertility rates are part of this. The whole thing could probably be boiled down to a simple formula: >2.1 average fertility
Unfortunately, pretending that you have a "profound" pseudo-mystical message that can only be understood by stacking your shelves with unread books is one of the most profitable ways the Dissident Right has to milk its paypigs, so expect to see plenty more of this rubbish.
