Like I thought he was going to say he didnโ€™t care or didnโ€™t support either candidate

2020-03-19 20:46:18 UTC  

Imagine supporting people that would institutionalize antifa

2020-03-19 20:46:19 UTC  

@Imperial J. Yay this is not a healthy society and we are not advocating for most people to be politically active, almost all of us would restrict voting rights i think

2020-03-19 20:47:00 UTC  

@Fighting Gold ai know that well

2020-03-19 20:47:49 UTC

2020-03-19 20:48:02 UTC  

ew Wikipedia

Yarvin's opinions have been described as racist, with his writings interpreted as supportive of slavery, including the belief that whites have higher IQs than blacks for genetic reasons. Yarvin himself maintains that he is not a racist because, while he doubts that "all races are equally smart", the notion "that people who score higher on IQ tests are in some sense superior human beings" is "creepy". He also disputes being an "outspoken advocate for slavery",[17][18] though he has argued that some races are more suited to slavery than others. "It should be obvious that, although I am not a white nationalist, I am not exactly allergic to the stuff", Yarvin wrote in a post that linked approvingly to Steve Sailer, Jared Taylor, and other racialist thinkers.[5][6]

not all that based

2020-03-19 20:57:38 UTC  

I think there are things we can learn from him. Very few thinkers will align with one's preferences completely

2020-03-19 20:57:41 UTC  

but strangely out there when argueing for slavery

2020-03-19 20:57:55 UTC  

yeah thats true

2020-03-19 20:58:35 UTC  

i would not take issue if we werent practically build upon this guys writings, as a lose movement

2020-03-19 21:00:21 UTC  

His take on trolling was really interesting I think.

2020-03-19 21:00:50 UTC  

Drawing fire in Vietnam

2020-03-19 21:01:35 UTC  

Yeah not only the origin stroy but also what that means.
You are drawing fire but you have to think what for.

2020-03-19 21:01:42 UTC  

It might be pointless.

2020-03-19 21:02:06 UTC  

Yeah

2020-03-19 21:02:09 UTC  

Maybe not I don't know I am still thinking about it

2020-03-19 21:02:46 UTC  

ben shapiro made that point 4 years ago

2020-03-19 21:03:14 UTC  

Like so far I was kinda in favor of trolling because it's fun right but when you are drawing fire to yourself and the other side doesn't exhaust themsleves and you might also get hit well then shit.

2020-03-19 21:03:58 UTC  

Pulling back to see the bigger historical picture is obviously invaluable. So many people in the West are trapped in contemporary modernity

2020-03-19 21:04:03 UTC  

What did ben say about that point, I can't remember.

2020-03-19 21:05:37 UTC  

he said the exact same thing. when the alt right first started, with milo and all of that and they wanted to troll the libs, he said its pointless if youre not somehow using it to get shit done

2020-03-19 21:05:41 UTC  

The internet has made so many people stick their heads above the parapet

2020-03-19 21:06:11 UTC  

And now it's self-surveillance

2020-03-19 21:09:34 UTC  

Yeah now I remember when you said Milo. It's funny with some things that I have known for years but never fully realized.

2020-03-19 21:09:59 UTC  

And then it hits you, why was I so blind.

2020-03-19 22:24:02 UTC  

Hm Moldbug denies holocaust denial๐Ÿค”

2020-03-20 02:02:02 UTC  

Curtis didn't even explain why he supports bernie over trump

2020-03-20 02:02:42 UTC  

all he said is they're both half authentic?
