I guess you can always fall back on anti-intellectualism. What’s ridiculous is taking the 18th century seriously as myth, but not as history. Honestly it would be better if people like you forgot the past entirely
To the normiecon, there is no difference between George Washington and James Otis, or Samuel Adams and John Adams. He reveres all these people equally and has never read anything by any of them. If he has, he regards them as magic scripture, the way the medievals read Vergil
And it is exactly this maze of stale magic bullshit that prevents him from seeing the stupid, obvious things that need to be done. By all means, sneer at history! Tell us, with Henry Ford, that it’s bunk! Forget it all—then do the obvious. Please.
Fundamentally, if we pressed the switch, there would be no speaking fees for the normiecon, whose fundamental business is a well-remunerated gig as a Judas goat. The job of the Judas goat is the production of complacency and optimism. At least the goat is only paid in hay
@curtis_yarvin His book is so bad. Basically, you have these four charismatic leftists in America, right. And they decide to, like, just take over things. And, like, somehow, they are so charismatic that they totally win everywhere. Conclusion: we need them to stop winning everywhere.
@curtis_yarvin Let’s talk about the myth vs. reality of Washington for a second. Myth: Washington won the Revolutionary war against all odds, risking everything including his life. Reality: Washington fought against a foe that wasn’t really trying to win the war and made plans to escape
@curtis_yarvin Does the switch keep people from being cunts to each other? Then there's no switch.
@curtis_yarvin Please be nice to Rufo. He's one of our only potent generals.
@curtis_yarvin The mythography is important, We tell ourselves stories and often they aren't true, I recently had cause to review, as an example, The times and legacy of Simon Bolivar. Did you know he was actually a decendent of the Inca Royal Family? You see, those plagues we were just...
@curtis_yarvin "You think my historical genealogy is trite and wishful? Clearly, you're an anti-intellectual. I am very smart."
@curtis_yarvin Unlike Jefferson et al., Washington was not an intellectual, and is depicted as a divine king on ceiling of Capitol. Original intent was for Executive to function as a Constitutional Monarch & Head of nation. Hegel BTW prescribes Constitutional Monarchy in Philosophy of Right.
@curtis_yarvin Just here for the memes — and to watch two asshats thumb wrestle 🤣
@curtis_yarvin Woke is so obviously from Hegel though (really Plato) but how can he not see that???
@curtis_yarvin Curtis, this guy's a snake. If your name wasn't out there already he'd gloat about your dox. That's the kind of man he is.
@curtis_yarvin James Lindsay IS Hegelian, right woke synthesis
@curtis_yarvin I'll be back in 5 or 6 months. Don't miss me too much Yarvin!
@curtis_yarvin The good news is that people will not forget you. The bad news is that Rufo will one day sign your deportation order. Arrivederci.
@curtis_yarvin Neoreaction isn't exactly 'intellectualism', at least not in any critical way. It's fantasy politics for the stupidly unimaginative. https://x.com/curtis_yarvin/st...
