[…] By the time most Americans understand what’s happening, the “reboot” – the destruction of government – may already be complete.

      Considering Curtis Yarvin and Nick Land have been peddling this stuff for fifteen fucking years maybe it’s reasonable to understand that we’re probably already too late to stop it without mass mobilization of a general strike.

      Seriously, I first heard about these chucklefucks in 2010, when a friend who had just finish his Critical Theory masters told me about some jackass calling himself Mencius Moldbug.

      That’s a damned if you do, damned if you don’t kind of standard.

      The situation is, when assessed honestly, really fucking bad. If they present it as being better than it is, they’re sugar coating the reality. If they present it as bad as it is then according to you they’re spreading doom and gloom. How are they supposed to win this?

    This is important to document.

    Behind The Bastards had a series on Curtis Yarvin after the Vance nomination, where they explained RAGE.

    At the time, it wasn’t clear how seriously anyone took this (other than Thiel, who’s all-in), and it seemed likely that Yarvin would be second fiddle to Project 2025.

    Things have changed. I imagine BTB will have an update soon.

    Wow just wow, it looks like we are just playthings for the ultra-wealthy at this point. I have a family so this is not a game to me.

    I highly recommend this website to anyone wanting to do a deeper dive on these Venture Capital Extremists and their plans:

    Damn I thought they were bringing back my favorite Canadian cgi TV show about computing and playing video games to survive.

        Some good news is there is a team of documentarians who have acquired the original tapes and are trying to re-release them in MUCH higher quality. It looks amazing. CBC article.

          Only one episode so far. 😭

          I’ve been periodically checking in on Reboot reboots for basically my whole life, and I’ve only been disappointed so far.
