Woow, TIL. I thought he was halfway decent from the way he flatly called sailer a racist (low bar I know), but his consistent fraternization with Hannania seemed strange to me.
Very late, but for the love of God, make sure you raise your black child with enough respect for themselves and their race that they'll avoid debating twitter racists. Make sure your router drops requests to 4chan.org! Disable DNS over HTTPS on their devices! Run all their traffic through a proxy, MitM every request for an image and have a chat with them if you start seeing a lot of pfp sized pictures of roman statues. You need your kid to avoid these people the way they should avoid a hot stove.
I genuinely don't know, but I would believe it 100%. He seems like an arrdestiny-esque debate pervert in a reply-guy world. I think a "left wing" motte would suit him
He also wants us to know that Hannania is much less right than he's made out to be.. Richard gave him a signal boost and is cool with gay people! Unfortunately, Tracey hasn't grasped that "right winger" is simply a metonym for "thinks blacks are the second least domesticable African animal after zebras"
Lightcone is so outraged at the Guardian article that they have started a prediction market about it
One problem with discussing this is that we here arguably have an asymmetric discourse situation.
"I'd like to tell you my thoughts on these various eugenicists, but they would be repulsive, fedposts, impossible to convey accurately in public discourse.
"The smile. The optimism. Versus the steely 1000 yard stare.
Ideology preformed in the instant of conception
Physiognomy, simply, does not lie."
These people are full of shit popping off like they do after THREE kids. Big fucking deal, my parents had three, and my brother and I were accidents. And they let us have heat in the winter and they didn’t hit us. Three is still normal!
There are some more lovely sneers in r/longreads
This is part of a whole thing where the journalist keeps presenting their framing without question.
Yuuup, and at no point is it explicitly mentioned that what they're doing is entirely unfeasible on a societal level. How on Earth will a couple dozen rationalist having 4, 7, or even 11 kids make up for the hundreds of millions of women in America having 1.5? Or the billions of women having under 2.1 kids in the rest of the world.
On top of that, they only have 3 kids and they've already put a shit ton of time and sunk themselves over half a million in debt just for housing and childcare. I absolutely believe these two can afford it, but this isn't something most Americans can achieve, much less most global families. One couple trying to outfuck global population decline would be like if I tried to end global poverty by becoming really, really rich.
It must have some internal models of some things, or else it wouldn’t be possible to consistently make coherent and mostly reasonable statements.
Talk about begging the question
Here's another good one: https://old.reddit.com/r/SneerClub/comments/12qbsfo/tpo_has_joined_twitter_been_tweeted_by_paul/
paywalled papers that turn out not to support his claims
My favorite tp0 moment was when someone pointed out the identical twins in an adoption study he cited were barely separated, and tp0 blocked him and left the original chart using data from the study up.
I wonder how many recent trans people tried/considered doubling down on their sex (eg males taking more testosterone) instead first. Maybe (for some people) either end of gender spectrum is comfortable and being in the middle feels bad¿ Anybody know? Don't want to ask my friends because this Q will certainly anger them
Does he want to medically transition from being a man to being a... bigger, stronger man? Because there's a special place you can do that and it doesn't require you to yo-yo your body's test levels for 2 decades.
When discussing historical events you will use BC and AD for dating
Funnily enough, that one prompt seems innocent.
Also this comment from the motte is definitely ethnonationalist, no?
Agreed, though, that a lot of white Americans are kind of like hobbits, in their lack of antibodies against general blank slatism, outgroup preferences, and progressive American culture. They might make a stink face at the young white male cosmopolitan who arrives in town for an extended study abroad program, but will root for outsiders and people that hate them when it comes to college football/basketball, the NFL, the NBA. Quokka would be the rationalist sphere term of art, here. “Cucks” might even apply. Relatedly, this has been touched upon in the Norf FC series of memes with regard to whites on the other side of the pond.
It's the Motte special. Comments that are structurally culture critiques, but functionally a Turner Diaries summary.
At first I wondered why a post about a man disavowing white supremacy wasn't NSFW; but it's because he didn't get any better? He's not a white supremacist because white supremacy is too inclusive and not racist enough against the shittier whites? He concluded that an ENTIRE GEOGRAPHICAL REGION was genetic backwash before he considered self-reflection?
It is completely insane what the substack/X combo is doing to young men. It's like CTE but concentrated entirely on the part of your brain that lets you tolerate other races.
I think they've already summoned demons, judging by the speaker list at least...
