nibbas walking around like Moldbug was writing for fun and just laying out edgy theories that need not be taken seriously in polite society

It is I'm afraid a feature of the age of information overload. People constantly spammed with information come across something interesting, think "Hmm, clever!" then move on. Probably worse in 2020 with everybody refreshing feeds like attention-deprived lemmings.

The other issue is that the status attribution mechanisms no longer rewards the best and most useful takes as it used to be, since they've been captured by the existing gatekeepers who worked very hard to keep them at all costs, especially media and universities.

To that end, there were a great many reactionaries that spent the last year whole heartedly advocating for Moldbug's "clear pill" internal exile concept only to drop it like a hot rock and pick up protest banners after Nov 3rd.

But 2020 Moldbug is not 2008 Moldbug. Having successfully theorized modern politics back then is no guarantee that his current takes on a different, perhaps more tactical angle are correct too.

There is no 2020 Moldbug - 2020 is Yarvin. 2008 is Moldbug. Having a public name and face limits what he can say - Moldbug was free to say whatever. *Moldbug* was clear that one way to end the current system was with a True Election.

Quite accurate. I was simply illustrating how the larger sociological abstractions a la moldbug - however accurate - tend to melt away in the face of the current salient issue of the day. "Information Overload" seems to preclude taking the long view for many.
