I always thought Yarvin was an interesting writer. Like a lot of people on the political fringe (and I've seen this from libertarians and socialists as well) he's fantastic and diagnosing problems and making us look at our own system with new eyes, but rather fumbles when it comes to workable solutions. He also seems to lose all biting insight and critique when it comes to one certain state he has a legal right to be a citizen of. I'll leave this for readers to find out which one. I've never made much of his apparent association to JD Vance. Maybe this is the sort of street cred stuff vance liked to surround himself with, much as Obama did with his Bill Ayers association, but I doubt it affected either men much in practice.
