Excuse me?
profoundly negrous
This motherfucker is so racist he invented a new term.
It’s 4chan speak, I’ve seen it before.
While I can understand his syntax, I fail to understand the substance of that sentence.
Now I'm curious how wealth can be utilized in a manner that pertains to African-Americans. Funding sickle cell anemia research?
I think he is basically saying "I think that black people are bad. I also think that some billionaires are bad, but it's #notallbillionaires . The innate badness that black people have and the bad billionaires have are the same, so I am going to call the bad billionaires black". In other words, racist bullshit
His "exceptions" are clearly the guy who can't get through a press conference without rolling on molly (and has dozens of illegitimate children) the guy who talks with a vocal fry and practices "concerned face" in the mirror because he thinks it fools people into thinking he isn't Patrick Bateman, and the guy who injects the blood of young people and gets stumped when the interviewer asks him if the human race should survive.
I don't think that's a neologism. It's just the adjective to 'negro'.
Basically he thinks billionaires are 'behaving black'.
I find it funny how bad guys in fiction openly expresses that they’re in the dark side. That’s so comical it can’t happen in reality. Right?
Nah, this guy is embracing ”Dark Enlightenment” as his core philosophy.
“He has defended the institution of slavery, and has suggested that certain races may be more naturally inclined toward servitude than others.[3][18] He has argued that whites have inherently higher IQs than black people,[18] and opposes U.S. civil rights programs.[19]”
holy fucking hell
and has suggested that certain races may be more naturally inclined toward servitude
Never his race though, that'd be silly.
Yarvin has been described as a "neo-reactionary", "neo-monarchist" and "neo-feudalist"
I've seen this for hardcore libertarian. They have one of the most unhinged subreddits. Their mod Derpballz was rather prolific is showing up to random communities with that BS. Bro is currently ban evasion as Irresolution.
"neo-monarchist" "hardcore libertarian" I love it when people have coherent views which aren't self-contradictory.
Behold, the master race
What a definitive neckbeard good LORD.
(I read the tweet)
Mother of God...
(I read his Wikipedia page)
Oh, this is actually mild by his standards, my goodness...
Can we please go back to a time when psychos like this guy were largely irrelevant?
I hate the internet sometimes.
What the...?
Now you, too, know about Curtis Yarvin. You thought Jordan Peterson was bad? Welcome to the club.
And people think I'm exaggerating or polarising when I call Peter Thiel a neoliberal fascist.
edit: it seems some people don't understand that Neoliberalism and Fascism do, in fact, go together very well. And that the fascism we're all facing now does not look the same as 90 years ago.
You thought Jordan Peterson was bad?
They're interchangeable. Curtis is more crass and online, while JBP uses academic speak and muppet tears to sound more Canadian. But their beliefs are fundamentally no different.
Ok, i reconstruct the slur in my mind and...what the fuck is that even mean? It sounds like another one of those word salad by intoxicated individual that mean absolutely nothing but also trying to be profoundly racist.
Fascists have no subatance, no interiority.
Yarvin and Thiel scare me...
Here's some of Yarvin's writings, if you want to feel like disappearing into the woods, getting on a rocket, and blasting off as far, far away from this planet as possible:
precedent should be rolled back to 1900 at the latest, and probably more like 1800. The democratic era has corrupted everything, law being no exception.
One way to see internal security in a Patchwork realm is as a compromise between two sorts of Orwellianism. In the sense that the realm is (effectively) omniscient and omnipotent, it would fit most peoples’ definition of “Orwellian.”
Residents of a Patchwork realm have no security or privacy against the realm.
All residents, even temporary visitors, carry an ID card with RFID response. All are genotyped and iris-scanned. Public places and transportation systems track everyone. Security cameras are ubiquitous. Every car knows where it is and who is sitting in it, and tells the authorities both. Residents cannot use this data to snoop into each others’ lives, but Friscorp can use it to monitor society at an almost arbitrarily detailed level.
There is one problem, though, which is ... the problem of adults who are not productive members of society. In our little Newspeak we call them wards of the realm.
As Delegate of San Francisco, what should you do with these people? I think the answer is clear: alternative energy. Since wards are liabilities, there is no business case for retaining them in their present, ambulatory form. Therefore, the most profitable disposition for this dubious form of capital is to convert them into biodiesel, which can help power the Muni buses.
Okay, just kidding. This is the sort of naive Randian thinking which appeals instantly to a geek like me, but of course has nothing to do with real life. The trouble with the biodiesel solution is that no one would want to live in a city whose public transportation was fueled, even just partly, by the distilled remains of its late underclass.
However, it helps us describe the problem we are trying to solve. Our goal, in short, is a humane alternative to genocide.
The best humane alternative to genocide I can think of is not to liquidate the wards—either metaphorically or literally—but to virtualize them. A virtualized human is in permanent solitary confinement, waxed like a bee larva into a cell which is sealed except for emergencies. This would drive him insane, except that the cell contains an immersive virtual-reality interface which allows him to experience a rich, fulfilling life in a completely imaginary world.6
The virtual worlds of today are already exciting enough to distract many away from their real lives. They will only get better. Nor is productive employment precluded in this scenario—for example, wards can perform manual labor through telepresence. As members of society, however, they might as well not exist. And because cells are sealed and need no guards, virtualization should be much cheaper than present-day imprisonment.
Many other regions of the earth, however, contain large numbers of human beings whose existence may well prove an unequivocal liability to the owners of any ground on which they would reside. If so, they can be virtualized, creating giant human Wachowski honeycombs of former bezonians, whose shantytowns can be cleared and redeveloped as villas for retired oil-company executives.
Teehee just kidding about my proposal to turn humans into petroleum... unless?
What an unfortunate collection of words to read on a Friday like today
This dude sucks so much. And everything I've ever read about him makes him seem like the most annoying kind in philosophy class who thinks he's smart but is a dumbass. And also very racist.
Probably throwing back his long hair with a head movement, while challenging the prof with what he thinks is an unassailable argument. Mistaking the stunned silence that follows for a win.
🤢🤮
I keep running into this problem where I hear about this conservative intellectual and I go to read their work. I know I'm not going to agree with them, but let me find the flaw or where our values diverge in their argument.
When I gloss it, I'll assume the problem is me when i fail to find that spot. So I do a closer, more serious reading of their work. Still don't see it. Again. Fail. Again. Fail. Again.fsil.failfsilfisjl.
These "intellectuals" are people who haven't read widely, haven't practice developing ideas, and don't know how to write a structured argument.These fuckers were "STEM" smart from a young age, probably without much effort, got accolades from everyone about how smart they were, and thought the liberal arts were a joke. And honestly, until advanced high school classes, they often are. Because before that age, your brain lacks the skills and data to do it at all.
Their combined rhetorical strength lies in misleading statements, provocations, and hiding their true intent behind mealy mouth pseudo intellectualism. At least Yarvin will come out and say he wants feudalism. Fuck Jordan Peterson in particular. I am worse off for ever having tried to comprehend his thinking. I'm not sure who else sucks in this day and age, but I include Theil, bronze age pervert, and the CEO of Palintar. All, I believe, have advanced degrees in the liberal arts.
This isn't to say that there aren't conservatives worth reading and disagreeing with, but the surface is polluted.
Yarvin is a traitor to humanity.
Least Racist Curtis Yarvin post
That's not even a sensible usage of "exception proves the rule". Not surprised a shithead uses language poorly.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exception_that_proves_the_rule
What does he even mean by this?
What he "means" to the extent this isn't just a shock value post meant to allow him to get a lot of responses before moving the goalposts & also to get a lot of nazis to like him more, is that:
The epithet he used is a racist one used to describe how people (usually black people, but not exclusively) who come from a poor background act once they get some money - often on flashy displays of wealth, but not often on investments/ensuring their wealth grows and lasts into the future. Not that this is actually true, but that's the idea.
he is saying American billionaires fit that epithet because of how they spend their money. He calls them N*s because of how they spend money, not because they are black - he is not under the illusion that most billionaires are black.
he's saying they spend their money in foolish ways. He would prefer they spend their money abolishing the neoliberal state and replacing it with a neo-feudal monarchical system that makes all these billionaires literal feudal lords with fiefdoms. For him, this is the end-goal of wealth and the ideal societal state.
also, he thinks that he is an intellectual and that his tweet is a serious philosophical argument.
