... 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.

If anything, history of past and recent conflicts, for example see Ukraine, shows that mercs are not going to fight seriously and are going to run away at the very first sign of trouble.

That's why they're being replaced with robots.

Skynet scenario? My bet is on adaptable humans vs rigid programmed bots. Until AI gits good enough to fix it's own bugs. With classical software development, it is a natural that humans win, because human programmers write buggy code. Humans test software and sign it off.

"Rigid programmed bots" is a dead paradigm. Deep learning is the whole of the unfolding story.
