The Legendary Dragon Alephwyr, named Alephwyr, BA

My read is more that the recent weird conservative dork stuff like moldbug is mostly about providing onramps and sufficiently esoteric/edgy/contemporary theoretical razzle dazzle to attract folks to pretty classical reactionary stuff, and the new'll get shed / replaced as needed.https://twitter.com/mutual_ayyde/status/1415876540760432641 …

Moldbug's silly entreaties are very historically and subculturally contingent. As a historical text he's not going to get resonance going "look I come from blue tribe, i know the toothpaste brand they use" in context a few decades from now. He built no lasting theoretical status.

90% of what was original to nrx rather than just reheated classical conservative shit was about speaking to a certain audience in a certain cultural context, same as gamergate shit, and the remaining 10% that was libertarian-y about CEOs etc has already been widely discarded

the stuff on CEO sovereigns is especially frustrating because there's actual interesting lit on charter cities and the like done by sincere people that gets significantly less attention because you can't use it to own the libs/progs
