/lit/ - Literature

I read enough of him to know he is stupid.

>>15234061
He's a crybaby.

>>15234061
Why's he vape so much?

remember when he predicted that bitcoin would fail

>>15234061
Because his writing style gives me anxiety.

>>15234274
yeah lol. he’s worth a brief read if you like politics but ultimately, he’s hollow. better than most contemporary thinkers though

>cries in the middle of an interview on stage randomly

>>15234283
He almost did that again in KB's Pseudcast.

Crying that you won't submit to authoritarian technohell because his 90 year old Meemaw a might die

>>15234061
Man, I dunno no Moldbug. I knows a spoon tho, always strrin up trouble

>>15234061
>reads encyclopedias for fun
No thanks. I don't tolerate autism.

>>15234061
That chin explains all.
>OH NONONONONONO

>>15234274
Who didn't know that bitcoin would fail? It was hardly a surprise to most people. Hence why most people never even bothered with it.

>>15234061
I would read him but I hate ebooks. Are there any published physical copies of his books?

>gets constantly dunked on by TRS
>completely flustered by it
lol

>>15234450
ok anti-acc-fag.

>>15234713
hes cringe but TRS has never dunked on anyone

>>15234822
>>15234713
good arguments, how will patchwork neocameralism ever recover

>>15234713
TRS are a literallywho outfit at this point

>>15234061
Why bother, Kurzweil already exists

To be fair, you have to have a very high social and emotional intelligence to relate to Mencius Moldbug crying. The feels are extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of patchwork most of the NAP 1% will go over a communist's head. There's also Moldbug's leather jacket, which is deftly woven into his filler wording - his irony draws heavily from postmarxist neocarlylism, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the social-intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of his clear-pill back patches, to realize that they're not just profound - they say something deep about leather. As a consequence people who dislike Moldbug Digipunk truly ARE idiots - of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the meaning in Moldbug's tear-pill meanderings, which in themselves are a cryptic reference to post-leather insignia and cyber-vegan initiation into the future. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those hyperaddlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Mencius Moldbug's genius unfolds itself from the activity patchwork. What fools... how I pity them. And yes by the way, I DO have a "Who is MOLDHOG MC's Enforcer?" tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's outside the dome - and even it has to demonstrate that it's within 25 urbit cash of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.

who?

I hate everything about this board. No one is putting any effort into their posts. Everyone is trying to out-shitpost each other, trying to get more (you)'s than the next guy. It's so awful. You really have to be low IQ to enjoy such a board for more than a year. Look at how many replies there are in this thread that are longer than 10 words. 10 WORDS. There is absolutely no hope for this place.
Boring, miserable board full of boring, miserable people. Imagine being angry at "normalfags" and yet doing your best to replicate normalfag social dynamics every day on an ANONYMOUS FUCKING IMAGE BOARD. Losers, all of you.
And don't tell me I haven't tried. I try every time to put effort into my posts, be thoughtful with what I say, to not engage in dishonest rhetoric and shitposting. Yet it's never reciprocated. People just don't care about it.
You also bash on reddit. Let's see how you compare to that site:
> Every time someone posts a controversial, yet well-argued post, the replies are inevitable short, <10 word replies "seethe", "grow up kid", "dilate", "cringe". Not unlike a certain system with arrows pointing down. Rarely anyone ever tries to engage.
> Boring normie shit always gets bumped. Insightful, interesting threads always get quickly buried. Bait gets rewarded.
> All the people talk in much the same way. There is no originality in the posts.
> BASED BASED BASED UPVOTED!!!!
You know the old adage how when you hate something or someone, it's likely because you're very similar to them? This is exactly true in 4chan v reddit.
Kill yourselves.

>>15234061
lost my respect for him when he would have 7 billion people chipped by bill gates than let his 90 yo communist whore of a grandmother die

>>15234061
If he's unironically so smart why are his ideas never discussed here?
All there is is shilling for him, but you would think if he was so great people would talk about his ideas?
Guess not lol

>>15234986
People on this board dont talk about ideas

>>15234061
who are his children?

>>15234999
We had a thread on Spengler yesterday that reached 140 posts with people debating different interpretations and predictions about his ideas.
Never really see this kind of debate with any other thinkers tbqh

>>15234986
Patchwork/Dark Enlightenment is actually very quickly becoming a mainstream political stance among contemporary philosophers. Philosophers are starting to unanimously agree that it is the only viable political system for the coming post capitalist era

Only his dad was Jewish, which means he is not Jewish himself.

Hitlers dad was Jewish too, irony at its finest

>Only his dad was Jewish, which means

Start with Moldbugs "A Gentle Introduction to Unqualified Reservations"

Moldbug is going to be the next big thing in Politics, he is basically the next Karl Marx. In a few decades from now, Patchwork is going to be the new mainstream political stance (what Secular Liberalism is today)

>>15235301
After that go on to Patchwork

>Yarvin's father is Jewish,[27] and his parents and stepfather were career officers in United States Foreign Service.[28] At age 12 he returned from abroad to attend public high school in Columbia, Maryland.[29] Yarvin attended college at Johns Hopkins and Brown University (undergrad) and UC Berkeley (graduate student).[3]
Ummm... guys?

Hitlers dad was Jewish too. Must mean that Antisemitism is actually a secret Jewish plot

>>15235348
>Nazi official Hans Frank suggested that Alois' mother had been employed as a housekeeper by a Jewish family in Graz, and that the family's 19-year-old son Leopold Frankenberger had fathered Alois.[10] No Frankenberger was registered in Graz during that period, and no record has been produced of Leopold Frankenberger's existence,[11] so historians dismiss the claim that Alois' father was Jewish.[12][13]

Eva Braun was also Jewish so Hitler was a good Jewish boy finding a nice Jewish wife.

>remember when he predicted that bitcoin would fail
He also recommended people buy anyway considering if it didn't fail its value would skyrocket. This was however based on the slightly faulty reasoning that there can only be one stable money in an economy (which is actually an entirely reasonable assessment given the history of gold vs silver). At the time multiple digital currency project had failed and the US government had just arrested a guy for minting gold coins with Ron Paul's face.

Accurate, in spite of its blog post nature

>>15235348
>Must mean that Antisemitism is actually a secret Jewish plot
There was a preponderance of grave desecration of synagogues in the lead up to 2016 election; once found, most were:
Assimilation has been the greatest fear of pharisees of Judah and Levi since the 8th century, and ginning up fear and polarization on either side has been the MO for centuries. Look up the case of the Sea Monkeys inventor as an Aryan Brotherhood leader, a particularly funny case.

This post puts into words beautifully what I was feeling for over a year now. Thank you anon, that was very well written.

>>15234061
He's not a genius and all those other things make me like him even less.

Holy fuck where do I start?

The delusion is strong with this one.

>>15234932
This site died long ago and all the high-effort posters also fled. It's become virtually indistinguishable from Reddit or Twitter at this stage.
