- mindslight 11y agoIf Yarvin's views are as few, shallow, and unnuanced as you've characterized them as, then surely they can be easier refuted through reasoned argument instead of monkeysphere games. (And just for the record, I disagree with the utility of Yarvin's technical architecture for the same philosophical reasons I disagree with Moldbug's political prescriptions. But I find his perspective refreshing and analysis spot-on. And I find social ostracization based on traditionally-unassociated context extremely repugnant)
- Mizza 11y agoWhere's the coming from? The only thing I've seen as evidence of that is http://unqualified-reservations.blogspot.com/2007/05/understanding-racial-idealism.html http://unqualified-reservations.blogspot.com/2007/05/underst... - but I don't read that as an advocacy of white supremacy, it's just saying that Nazis were "utopianist" (as in _they_ believed in a utopian ideology), and it's actually as an analogy to characterize modern liberals. "Vocal advocate of white supremacy and racial slavery" seems like a bit of a slander, but maybe I'm missing part of the equation.
- theorique 11y ago"maybe I'm missing part of the equation" You're not. The main issue is that Moldbug writes in depth about controversial things, without including enough Leftist bromides like "Hitler was the worst" or "slavery is evil". This is very triggering to Leftists in the tech industry and so they want him removed from any conference where he happens to be presenting a talk.
