Cingulate, people would like you more, or at least not facepalm when you show up if you stuck to pedanting about things you care about, positive or negative. The whole "I just don't like people being hyperbolic " shtick doesn't work well and you come off as defending really heinous poo poo.

I'd like to think that, as the Cathedral's agents devoted to extinguishing freedom and fun, that we could at least muster the standards not to say "retard" in earnest. (Making fun of certain types for being weak nerds is funny and acceptable insofar as it's a way of making fun of their macho pretensions, but I'm quite certain Moldbug doesn't actually fall into that category.)

I mean maybe not directly but he wants to be god-emperor-patriarch of the kingdom of cyber-america or whatever which I think qualifies him as a valid target for shoving in a locker and giving wedgies.

For everyone's convenience, I've cherry-picked the quotes sounding the most offensive when taken completely out of context out of Scott's most recent post:quote:Should we round up everybody from the ghetto and stick them in prison? This policy would have a number of advantages. Many people in the ghetto are desperately poor and living in terrible conditions. Many die before their time. They often make middle-class people who come across them profoundly uncomfortable. And their crime rate is much higher than that of the non-ghetto population. All the advantages of institutionalizing the mentally ill also apply to institutionalizing people in ghettos.

Cingulate posted:I think Moldbug probably rather fancies himself the Grey Eminence in the background, or the obscure writer who is quoted as literal inspiration by the guy who actually orders the slave trade to be reopened.

Jack Gladney posted:What do women have to do with the government? Does that guy just live in super-poverty because he hates taxes? Again, it's a parody (Private Eye is a satirical paper - kind of like the Onion, but with actual serious political coverage), but the rugged, chaste independence fetishised by MenGoingTheirOwnWay gels very well with libertarian ideology. Plus, they think they're living in an oppressive matriarchy, which would logically make the government part of that.

Cingulate posted:That's not what hypergamy means It's what hypergamy means to anyone who actually uses the word 'hypergamy' in conversation. Seriously, try Googling it. To be honest, it's not vastly separate from the dictionary definition (the act of marrying someone of a higher social status). You know, by Internet hate group standards. It's just a very cynical interpretation.

http://thefederalist.com/2016/03/30/the-intellectual-case-for-trump-i-why-the-white-nationalist-support/ Posting this mainly because the last sentence is hilarious (h/t to Popehat): Mytheos Holt posted:Otherwise, the people damaged by multicultural, leftist attacks on Western civilization will be thoroughly justified in sneering at us as proverbial “cuckservatives” forever mentally masturbating with our own empty universalism while barbarism rapes Lady Liberty. George Orwell posted:People who write in this manner usually have a general emotional meaning—they dislike one thing and want to express solidarity with another—but they are not interested in the detail of what they are saying. Also, that final metaphor makes me think of Kelly's cartoons from the Onion.

So here's a shitshow. ClarkHat made an Indiegogo to "save" LambdaConf from being politicized... by raising money for an obviously political group (Status 451) to sponsor the conference. https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/save-lambdaconf-and-an-open-society--3#/ They've already fleeced $16,000 from idiots so far. Now I guess LamdaConf can be saved by having a political organization that has nothing to do with functional programming sponsor it in order to make a point against politicization. https://twitter.com/ClarkHat/status/716242082696921088 https://twitter.com/ClarkHat/status/716242267028193280 https://twitter.com/ClarkHat/status/716242401682132992 https://twitter.com/ClarkHat/status/716242669345882112

Is 16,000 even close to what LambdaConf would need to recoup the loss from their sponsors leaving in droves? I'm guessing no but I'm curious about the operating costs for a convention like that, seeing how I just found out about them a week or so ago
