/lit/ - Literature

My favorite contemporary writers are Mencius Moldbug, Bronze Age Pervert and Nick Land
Yeah you might look down on such choices because they have already been discussed to death, but there really aren't any authors better than them alive today. None who write about such subjects as they do, anyway.
Truth is, they are all highly insightful and deserve their popularity. I really think these three and their work are going to stand the test of time.
Without understanding their ideas, you will not understand the modern world!

true, i want him tackle christianity before the protestan reformation, if you look back you can say that christianity was the "progressive" version of judaism since to be part of the jewish religion, you had to be ethnically jewish, everyone can be a christian, in fact, even pagan religions were more exclusive than judaism if you look back in history, nobody was spreading the word of Zeus/Jupiter in the ancient world, Moldbug likes to shit on protestant but protestantism is christianity going back to her roots, so he´s acting like a con-man saying it originated with the reformation

Curtis Yarvin......an interesting figure to keep an eye on, accept no substitutes

based on this talk Moldbug regrets having any ideas in the first place, and would prefer operating in a purely deconstructive sense. It seems like this frustrates a lot of readers, who want answers and plans.
Although speaking of new ideas this relates to his concept of thymotic anthems and pistoic functions in his recent essays. These political tools that are used to make movements successful, but Moldbug's antidemocratic position is understood as antipolitical, so he deliberately avoids such techniques in favor of pursuing an approach with strictly academic or philosophical appeal. You get more of a political bent to his earlier writings where his "ideas", or positive proposals come from.
Basically, you are a political addict who is complaining about his withdrawal symptoms
