... Buterin's a bright kid. Is Patchworked NeoCam really so hard to grok?

To be fair moldbug does deliberately elide the difference between neo and paleoreactionary for comedic effect, he probably hasn’t reread him enough

True. But there has to be someone in Buterin's circle who could have whispered to him: "The NeoCam CEO is an executive appointment made by sovereign stock-holders."

With few exceptions everyone who read moldbug and agreed with what he was saying became a paleoreactionary, largely because he is entirely too libertarian to have any constructive proposals, and agreeing with his criticism comes much easier to authoritarian types.

Kind of agree, the criticism, the redpilling is what got me, not running countries like hotels. To me that is too rootless, a people without emotional attachment to their land? Too Anglo-Jewish for me. Who would die for such a country? Let's just have ethno-nat kings, attached.

"Who would die for such a country?" Mercenaries. You're being too romantic in your attachments.

Way, way too romantic. If your want your elites to be loyal to you, then your only reasonable option is to have them run it like a hotel.

Or have strong ingroup feeling. Or Dunbar feudal chain.

This is, sadly, the last romance.

Managed confusion of progeny interests with actually existing political units is being destroyed by progressive over-reach faster than it is being deconstructed by political theory.
