Yeah, but remember that he drew a stick figure comic specifically to show people "hey you can do comics too!" So Munroe did and it was a huge hit.

Wesley Morganston posted:I made the mistake of believing I was a Brahmin, going to a very strongly Brahmin college, and maintaining some Vaisya ideals, so I was treated as an Antyaja, by which I mean I was accused of being a member of the KKK, told that America and the world would be better off without people like me, and forced out after one semester Wesley Morganston posted:And as for the charge that Insane Clown Posse “sounds no different than the usual black rap”… well, I’d like to see Soulja Boy do this.

Klaus88 posted:What is he ranting about in relation to Brahmin? All goggle is turning up is a line of hand bags and fallout New Vegas articles. You see America has a caste system and we have to use the terms from India's caste system because it makes our writing more impenetrable and academic sounding! So basically he went to a college for one particular caste but they kicked him out because he was too edgy (read: an overtly racist asshat).

If I had to guess what he's arguing it's that white men aren't actually at the top of America because he can still be socially ostracized for being racist.

Klaus88 posted:What is he ranting about in relation to Brahmin? All goggle is turning up is a line of hand bags and fallout New Vegas articles. It's about the old Hindu caste system in India. Wikipedia posted:Varna is a Sanskrit word which means colour or class. Ancient Hindu literature classified all humankind, and all created beings, in principle into four varnas: So his line means something like "I thought I was a (high status) going to a (high status) school, but holding onto beliefs of (middle status) made them treat me as a (untouchable status), and they forced me out after a semester." Which comes off as a nonsensical application of an extinct social ordering system to obscure his point behind a bunch of "smart" words. DarklyDreaming posted:he's arguing it's that white men aren't actually at the top of America because he can still be socially ostracized for being racist. Bingo. Well, he could be arguing that people percieve his beliefs to be racist (on par with the KKK according to him) but they're wrong because "I don't explicitly use racial slurs!".

I'd love to know what he did. There was a white separatist who went to my school for a semester before getting kicked out. He gave an interview to the school paper where he said it was unfair that people called him a white supremacist when he was really a white separatist and said that the campus police were harassing him. He got kicked out for making knives and keeping them under his mattress.

He's referring to Moldbug's American castes, which is racist, and is pure supposition, with a mix of Moldbug's own brand of dog-whistling (which is human audible, but yet pretends it isn't, if it even cares.) I don't even know what to say about it. It's not something you can prove or disprove, just soak in the bullshit nature of it all.Moldbug posted:In the Dalit caste, status among men is defined by power, wealth and sexual success, among women by attractiveness and popularity. The favored occupation of Dalit men is crime, preferably of the organized variety. However, Dalit criminals are not generally psychopathic; they perceive crime as guerrilla warfare against an unjust society. Dalit women may support themselves by crime, welfare (which they consider a right), or payments from men. Both male and female Dalits may occasionally support themselves by conventional employment, but this is usually in jobs that other castes (except Helots) would consider demeaning, and Dalits share this association. The Dalit caste is not monolithic; it is divided into a number of ethnic subcastes, such as African-American, Mexican, etc.

Funny, I thought the majority of people did crime when driven to a corner. So the Dalit are rebels but not really and aesthetes but not really?

So basically upper-middle, lower and middle classes designated by wealth, an immigrant 'class', and a British-style upper class. Amazing.

Spiteful is definitely true, but she was bloodthirsty only inthat she wasn't above having people killed to get what she wanted (which by old testament standards was incredibly tame). On the other hand, she's basically been used as the symbol for a power-hungry whore since she was introduced in Hebrew texts. Basically, she's the model that Neoreactionaries think every woman with ambition follows.

So far the closest I've seen to any engagement with continental philosophy (aside from blanket dismissals of philosophy as a discipline) was Alexander's embarrassing attempt to disprove Hegel based on what he read in Singer's short introductory book on Marx and some random internet quotes. Some of the lowest effort -> maximum smugness I've seen any of them try to pull.

That story about his final days before his breakdown never ceases to amuse me. How the only "work" he used to do was loving around on his computer late at night jacked up on amphetamines. Also how the last sighting of him was him shopping for pot noodles and a cabbage, so he "doesn't get scurvy."
