I've watched for nearly 2 decades as stupid neoreactionaries run around yelling "marxism" as they screw up and make things worse by not having a clue how this stuff works. Not taking lessons from righty activists which have beat the same drum for 20 years and accomplished zero.

NRx is, at most, 13 years old (when Moldbug started UR). I'd guess that Handle has 15+ points on you, and I doubt he'd claim to be as sharp as Land or Yarvin, so perhaps you might consider a modicum of humility.

If you think the view that became NRX began with Unqulified reservations you are simply wrong. Hans Herman-Hoppe published "Democracy: The God that Failed" back in 2001 and Steve Sailor has been writing since the 90's.

Like and I'll admit, braghing about research is arrogant. So I'll apologize for that. Arrogance is not good. I shouldn't have done that. But....My point about NRX stands. It's older than Yarvin

Bragging at research when you can't even tell things apart is something but arrogant isn't it

I don't know what that tweet was supposed to say, but NRX didn't come from nowhere. I mean, Yarvin/Moldbug himself cites Hoppe as the reason he moved away from libertarian democracy. Anyone whose read Moldbug knows that. That essay is here: https://www.unqualified-reservations.org/2010/02/from-mises-to-carlyle-my-sick-journey/ …pic.twitter.com/3iy1yMaBqw

Yes, he mentions having read Hoppe because Hoppe had insights about democracy but NRx isn't ancap. I'd almost be interested in this activism you think Hoppe inspired but I'm expecting disappointment.

If you insist on a difference between ancap and NRX I can let you define yourselves as you wish. I think of them as early and later NRX but if you want to say it's ancap and not NRX I can live with that. But at this point it's a quibble about labelling.

The difference between ancap and NRx is a "quibble about labeling" There's really not much more that needs to be said here.

Sure, we could intellectually joust about how Moldbug went from ANCAP to NRX and went past libertarianism and how he went from Hoppe to Carlyle if you really want. MoNaRcHiSm Vs AnArcHy Or I could be productive.
