The conclusion is that fascism is an extremely powerful drug -- it only took a few days and some very simple, blunt instruments to get people hooked. This is why when you see highly educated e/acc people, tech bubble people, VCs etc. tinkering inquisitively, semi-ironically with taboo right-wing ideas on twitter it's not really very funny or cute.
Nick Land really did wield strong black magic from Leamington Spa. That stuff really works, it echoes for decades, and it is as powerful and radioactive as people say it is.
Why are people susceptible to this? I don't know, I think that's a bit like asking "why are people into heroin" -- "it is extremely powerful -- it temporarily makes everything make sense and feel good " is maybe the way to put it.
