It's the venture firm that makes its money pumping cryptocurrency scams, who've realised the British Government are the last organisation on the planet that still thinks cryptocurrency is the cool new cash of the future and are here to scam them.

Yeah I just checked their portfolio and it's like a yellow pages of speculative blockchain bullshit sold to other speculative blockchain bullshit sold to VC disruptors. Glad they have Silicon Valley Bank onboard.

I also sauté them in the butter at the start of the process to extract the capsaicin- this is why the heat doesn’t get you straight off, but rather as it melts on your tongue.

All of those people are probably now on the GC/transphobe train too if they haven't violently removed their head from their rear end, but back then it wasn't transphobia that was the rallying point. (Although for a few of them it was Gillick competence and access to birth control that sent them down the chud pipeline, there's probably something interesting in there.) I think the big unifying overview is a rejection of consensus reality and the idea that things can be known, or if not known then approximated to be socially useful. At the middle of that howling vortex are people like David Icke and Alex Jones who believe things simply because the majority of people don't. In the (extremely unlikely) event that free energy or whatever was popular they'd pivot to "there's no such thing as free energy it's secretly powered by the blood of cloned babies" or some poo poo. Most people aren't that far gone, but that attitude towards social knowledge is a common driver, as is an obsession with some kind of normal/natural order which always ends up with that Bob cartoon.  e: ^ that too

what is worrying is how pervasive it's become: my uncle who is in his 80s sits watching YouTube videos of various paranoid bigots with a fair chunk of his time i first knew something was up when he tried to "introduce" me to jordan bastard peterson last year - quickest way I could get him to drop it was to tell him bernie sanders is more my kind of man

Not to get all philosophy of science goonsay on you but I don't know if that is the best way to describe it . The scientific worldview isn't really about 'consensus' as much as 'consistency.' You don't have to believe in it; you can test it for yourself. It's not democracy; it's meritocracy. I think the common trait between those three issues (islamaphobia, modern Russia apologia, transphobia) is that they are all attempts to launder anti-intellectualism. For the most part, I don't feel they are towards their own end. Instead, they prime people to be receptive to the next bit of anti-intellectualism that is more destructive or difficult to believe, such as climate change denialism or capitalism. As the expression goes: "What's the hardest conspiracy to fall for? The first one." Why do these issues get more traction than something that is also an anti-intellectualist canard like flat earth? I imagine that most people understand the physical laws of the world better than they understand the social laws that govern things like religion, nations and gender. This is regardless of our species's actual scientific understanding of the those topics. Most of us know flat earth is impossible because we can intuit basic physics understandings by experiencing our bodies and can understand math as a pure relation of ideas. However, we can't as easily intuit gender metaphysics or the idea of a nation state so people are more vulnerable to having those ideas replaced by those bad actors. Or maybe I'm full of poo poo, I dunno. Just how I have been looking at it for a while.

And despite all that he still got a free apartment and food and UBI and his biggest problem was 'woke' shows on the tv and not enough UBI to buy tech gadgets, it was hardly Port Elizabeth Camp.

The scientific worldview isn't really about 'consensus' as much as 'consistency.' You don't have to believe in it; you can test it for yourself. It's not democracy; it's meritocracy. They're definitely anti-intellectualists, but they usually achieve it by sowing social uncertainty in the validity of institutions, the rationalization of society as a whole, the motives of the 'secret rulers of society' etc. rather than doing their own lovely experiments. (Except the people chugging horse dewormer, they definitely had some lovely experiments.) The canonical example of that would be like the Protocols of Zion, which goes as absurdly far as to claim that all media, bureaucracy, science, education, etc. is being deliberately directed by a small group of Jews. That the ancien régime ran on common sense and natural order, but this new stuff, you can't trust any of it, it's Jewish. That's a transparent and naked attempt to replace a modern consensus reality with a (imagined) pre-enlightenment one to prop up reactionary aristocrats, but you can see the same in great replacement theory, or all trans is invented by a cabal of evil doctors, or similar.
