Honestly it's not the lovely college boy skepticism that bothers me so much as an inability to follow through He more or less accepts the NRx framing of any situation as basically correct and doesn't bother thinking about any possibilities that might make him uncomfortable.

The Vosgian Beast posted:loving act like it then I think he engages in as much obscurantism as he can when defining his positions so that he can get away with defending the worst kind of Nazis on the internet. Like, he's pretty adamant about not having a strict position so that he can do poo poo like defending the worst sort of authoritarian collectivists while calling himself an anti-authoritarian individualist, and even an anarchist.

FWIW Cosmic Trigger is still kinda neat in a bongthink way but we're like a million years of technological development away from Aleister Crowly being the most relevant source of metaphors for our day-to-day lives. MikeCrotch posted:I thought we thought that Scott Alexander was a racist idiot not a nazi? E: So many of these internet intellectual types strike me as just constantly reinventing the wheel and falling into the same traps as people who said the same thing centuries ago; like they're smart in the fundamental sense but never read anything without a spaceship, wizard, or schoolgirl on the cover so they independently invent libertarianism when they're 12 and never move on from that. It's like a right-wing version of all those otherkin types who are so sheltered they don't realize that yeah everyone feels that way and it's called daydreaming. But while some people realize "lol poor people should just work harder!" is a dumb idea when they hit puberty, some never develop a more sophisticated method of conceiving of rational argument than what lead them to that.

Speaking of twitter, as of reading this thread, I have a new favorite: Alexandr Dugin, ideological mentor to both Steve Bannon and Vladimir Putin. As you'd expect from someone who spends less time kvetching about progs and more time actually spreading his ideas to the highest levels of international political power, he gives his position a vastly less twee and more direct name: Traditionalism. Traditionally, you see, women knew their place, lesser nations were kept clean and organized, and there was definitely none of this gay stuff. The opposite of traditionalism is liberalism, which, as he gently puts it "is an absolute evil" and "must be destroyed." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gRdfX7ut8gw&t=106s Oh, sorry! Specifically, he said "American liberalism must be destroyed." Well, we've all heard that plenty in the last few years (especially when you consider that he considers it synonymous with globalization) but he was saying it in the nineties. Back then he was pretty fringe (he had only just learned to shut the gently caress up about numerology) but his message - that what Russia needed most was "genuine, true, radically revolutionary and consistent, fascist fascism" - became more and more popular over time, and has even [s]been spread[/]spontaneously generated itself, by blessed coincidence, in the US. Actually, wow, a whole bunch of ideas which took off here in the past decade or so seemed to start with him: https://twitter.com/leahmcelrath/status/808102186521608192 So as the world hurtles itself into a new century of horror (compared to the last one we're only slightly behind schedule), just remember that if any of your fellow-travelers start weeping about what's been lost and who's to blame, you can always turn to them smugly and say "well actually, if you read Dugin's The Foundations of Geopolitics you'll find" just before they cut your throat to steal your boots and any food you're hiding.

So in light of recent events, is scott alexander going to walk back his previous posts that we are ""crying wolf"and using unfair accusations of dogwhistling against the poor president, who has been prematurely called an "open racist"" No, he stands by it! Because he already knew trump was going to ban muslims when he made those posts, so his massive screeds of trump apologia were fine! He's somehow trying to thread the needle of admitting that trump is a xenophic racist while also claiming the liberals are being hysterical in calling him an open loving racist.

Remember when he used the same argument of "I once described X in negative terms" to dismiss his odd relationship to neoreaction? Or the opposite in regard to his phobia towards feminism. E: I'm expecting him to get into Trumpism or support of Trump / Trumpists in a self-denialy sort of way just as he did with neoreactionaries.

There are a bunch of kids on Tumblr (I know. Tumblr. SJW ground zero.) pushing the Traditionalism thing, in the context of Russian rechristianization, making starry eyes at Poland as the last bastion of European "Christendom," and defeating Islam--mostly Orthodox and sedevacantist/Latin Mass Only Catholics. I have never heard of Dugin before, but I bet that is where they all got the idea.

One of the main guys pushing the traditionalism stuff in the US is the same dude who several years ago was trying to get the whole "white student union" thing off the ground. He's and extremely gross looking weirdo who shows up at protests with a big orthodox cross he made out of plywood and is generally a huge creep.
