The ultra rich think they can just buy their way out by moving to wherever and they're probably right. The rest of the "wealthy" haven't realized they're just as screwed as the rest of us.

Part of the reason he does such a good job repudiating the neoreactionaries is because on some level he is sympathetic to the underlying drive beneath the craziness: a simmering revolt against the elevation of quantification over qualia.

Is the rationalwiki progressive enough for you folks to consider it safe to read? Because they do a good job of demonstrating that ideologically he's as far from the alt-right as he is from the radical left. Or do you guys consider the rationalwiki an unclean source? Is Slavoj Zizek still considered permissible to be a fan of, given his objections to political correctness? Because both he and SSC share a persistent fascination with GK Chesterton. Is it ok to admire and draw influence from Chesterton? Or is he yet another "a stupid person's idea of a smart person." Is Slavoj Zizek alt-right now, given his penchant for nasty sex jokes? Listen carefully to Zizek in his lectures, and you find a recurrent theme: a falling back on the idea that there is no coherent progressive anti-capitalist societal plan, and that the best which can be managed currently is managed capitalism, capitalism as directed by former Communist polities.

When Trump was elected, I had the sense that, at long last, I would know what it would be like to live under a Roman Emperor. But as the left becomes increasingly cannibalistic, I get the sense that we're entering an age more similar to the French Revolution, where each ascendent further left power gave way to political factions yet more extreme.

As for why I listened to chapotraphouse, it's because I consciously make an effort to get information and perspectives from outside of whatever echo chamber I may be unconsciously building for myself through my media consumption. As someone who has been sympathetic to leftist sensibilities in the past, I was genuinely curious; I left unimpressed.

Peterson has his flaws. There are lots of important points I disagree with him on. But the collective character assassination that he is currently being subjected to makes them easy to overlook in favor of his positive points. As for Nathan Robinson, ugh. There are things that the more bellicose aspect of my personality would like to express but I'll restrain myself because I want to work towards civility across political lines.

quote:

Federal definition. The federal definition of gang as used by the Department of Justice and the Department of Homeland Security's Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), is [1]:

An association of three or more individuals;

Whose members collectively identify themselves by adopting a group identity, which they use to create an atmosphere of fear or intimidation, frequently by employing one or more of the following:

- a common name, slogan, identifying sign, symbol, tattoo or other physical marking, style or color of clothing, hairstyle, hand sign or graffiti;

- Whose purpose in part is to engage in criminal activity and which uses violence or intimidation to further its criminal objectives.

- Whose members engage in criminal activity or acts of juvenile delinquency that if committed by an adult would be crimes with the intent to enhance or preserve the association's power, reputation or economic resources.



The association may also possess some of the following characteristics:
- The members may employ rules for joining and operating within the association.
- The members may meet on a recurring basis.
- The association may provide physical protection of its members from others.
- The association may seek to exercise control over a particular geographic location or region, or it may simply defend its perceived interests against rivals.
- The association may have an identifiable structure.
