Utterly irrelevant. Your point was that Ukraine's economic problems are due to the Russian invasion, which is false. Losing the Donbas may have made things a bit worse, but Ukraine was an economic basketcase since the…
Pogromming does not require "great men", only envy and resentment.
I blame Oedipus.
Moldbug allegedly acquired enough loot during the dot-com bubble to afford spending 7 years at home reading something like 1 book per day. That could be 2500 books in total. History grad students have to TA. They have…
Yet, it was the horrible, horrible Europe that Moldbug mythologizes and romanticizes that made virtually all advances in science and technology until a few decades ago. Ancient Greece produced mechanical computers. Only…

Mythmaking and mythbusting do not have to be mutually exclusive. If one can recognize the former, the whole can be edifying.
The cold leftovers can still be highly nutritious to those raised on processed, mythologized, state-endorsed pseudo-history.
Patrilineally, Yarvin is Jewish.
Don't be thick. A handful of oligarchs seizing all the wealth created by Soviet "slave" labor and sharing very little did destroy Ukraine long before the loonies in Lviv decided to overthrow the shameless crook from the…
