Not in the actual essay

that's the clickbait? gee...

I think its working

The u/acc'ist is immunized against all dangers: one may call him a spinozist, apathetic nihilist, crypto-hegelian, it all runs of him like water off a raincoat. But call him a cathedralite lecturer and you will be astonished at how he recoils, how injured he is...

lol

look, if I still engage the r/acc crew is because I think you are intelligent people with lots of knowledge. my quibble with this kind of psychoanalytic babble is that it doesn't live up to the expectations.

we're are putting out the u/acc investigation results out there pretty much constantly, so it's easy to objectify and attack it based on ad hominem arguments. but it doesn't make this kind of argument any more compelling.

if there's an actual critique of u/acc as u/acc (rather than a polemic against specific empirical avatars), then put it out there (hence the call for the r/acc primer).
