Mass or elite: the crusade of the YouTuber who wants to refound the ruling class
Some say history is written by elites; others argue the masses are merely meant to be herded. But when a YouTuber with caudillo aspirations decides the solution is a ruling minority, the matter complicates. On August 26, 2025, Francisco José Fernández Cruz Sequera, known as Seque, dedicated a program of over two hours to explain why Spain needs a new ruling elite. He is neither an academic nor a politician: he is a geopolitical analyst with a YouTube channel, and his diagnosis has triggered all alarms.
The program intended to separate the wheat from the chaff
Seque is no timid speaker. At minute 2:50:00 of his broadcast, he dropped a phrase that sums it all up: half of the viewers watching the live stream are degenerate, lazy, and vicious, lacking faith or capacity for sacrifice. Far from being an outburst, several analysts interpret this as a deliberate tactic of aggressive marketing, designed to expel the indecisive and retain only the die-hards. He wants to separate the wheat from the chaff, and he says it without anesthesia.
The reaction was not long in coming. Some speak of an incipient sect, noting that the project recruits only individuals with "full availability" and "things to contribute." Others, conversely, see Seque as a necessary leader, someone bold enough to voice aloud what many think: that parliamentary democracy has failed and that only a formed and determined minority can reverse the decline.
Rosenberg, Germanity, and the underlying problem
The most delicate point of his ideology emerges when he addresses race and civilization. Seque has built his discourse on readings of Alfred Rosenberg, the Nancy ideologue, and Oswald Spengler, the philosopher of decline. From this, he derives a peculiar theory: civilization can only flourish with a combination of Germanic blood and Mediterranean climate. To cap it off, he declared himself in the program "a clear Celtogermanic." The mockery was immediate, but the underlying problem is that these ideas, dressed up as geopolitics, are spreading without filter to an audience seeking easy answers.
Critics point out that Seque has read Rosenberg without critical spirit, as if it were a sacred text. His trinc, however, defend that his principles are non-negotiable and that democratic debate has only led to relativism. When faced with the objection that one man cannot encompass all knowledge, he replies that he does not like people, that he prefers books. A stance that, as several analysts note, prevents him from contrasting his ideas with reality.
History as an arsenal: militias, disamortizations, and the Civil Guard
To support his thesis, the circle close to his movement turns to Spanish history with an abundance of data. The municipal militias won when they participated (Navas de Tolosa, 1212) and lost when they stayed home (Alarcos, 1195). The Civil Guard was created in 1844, they say, to bring the rural world to heel after the State expropriated between 12 and 15 million hectares of communal land with the Madoz disamortization in 1855. Almost a third of the territory, in private hands. The people, once again, as victims. The conclusion they draw is that history is changed only by minorities with civic virtue, not by conformist majorities.
The movement, the sect, and the final question mark
Awaiting clarification on the project's structure, doubts accumulate. Critics emphasize that there is no economic program behind it, only a promise of hierarchy and sacrifice. Supporters repeat that principles are not debated, and that those who do not share them are outside. In between lies an uncomfortable question: what is the difference between a legitimate elite and an extractive oligarchy? Seque would say virtue; his detractors, that history proves otherwise.
The experiment remains open. For now, we only know that a YouTuber has managed to make some feel chosen and others discarded. The formation of a ruling class, in the end, begins thus: dividing the mass to then rescue it. Or perhaps, as one of his critics says, the problem is not the Moors, but ourselves.
