/moldbug/ general

What pieces have you read?

>Also he goes off on rants relating everything to catholics.

I'm a little confused by this wording. Is he pro- or anti-Catholic?

>>9715189
He's neither, OP is just being retarded.

>>9715189
He's a jew, what do you think? There's a reason why the subversive semite Moldbug called what he did "the Cathedral" and not "the Synagogue," which would have been infinitely more apt.

If you're white and wasting your time with nrx, you should stop now. It's loaded with jews and therefore skirts around the truth and the jewish problem. Nrx is dead anyway.

>>9714731
His values aren't Anti-Enlightenment, that's just a meme. If you were to ask him he would probably say it was more "the full" enlightenment or all the good parts that didn't seem to make it out of the era (Enlightened Absolutism, etc.)

As for being an edgy libertarian, he is sorta like that, though he gets less libertarian and more ambiguously conservative/right-wing over time in his writings. He just sees libertarianism as a preferred flavor of good government, not as the only possible way.

Moldbug is a living meme. a greasy libertarian IT guy who shitposts about monarchy in pseudo-victorian, vaguely reddit-like prose. But he has friends on high places, including several CEO's. Peter Thiel's political philosophy owes a lot to moldbug:

Patri Friedman (Milton's edgy ancap grandson) outright namedrops Moldbug in his contribution to the same issue of the CATO shill tank publication.

>>9714731
>I was hoping for some anti enlightenment values, arguments for monarchy and aristocracy
>calls someone else edgy

the guy is not that edgy to be perfectly honest. he waxes poetic about the red pill to draw edgelords like you in, but he's too subtle to really hold the interest of the kids. nevertheless he is a certifiable genius, very well-read, well-spoken, and you will learn stuff from him if that's the kind of thing you're after (as opposed to being a work, red-pilled, truth-bombing edgelord or whatever else betas get off to these days).

Such a good feeling. God be praised.

he was writing at a time when the overton window had yet to shift yet. nrx wasn't a thing before then. the dog whistles are laughably tame now in comparison.

Can't scold the mold!

>>9714731
he's an atheist kike and these two facts permeate his corpus
there are still valuable takeaways--he laid a solid foundation (that others have done more with, which is why, one must assume, he stopped updating his blog).

more or less use him for recommendations and pilfer his vocabulary, then read either Nick Land or the HRx manifesto depending on your taste (or blackpill yourself and read both)

Just read Hoppe, realize the classical liberal (enlightenment) project is hopeless, but also rationalistic theories of anthropology and justice. Take his analysis of political systems and put it together with classical catholic natural law and you're good to go.

It amazes me that /pol/ STILL hasn't realized Nietzsche is the best anti-Enlightenment/democracy/etc thinker out there.

>>9727209
No, he's a poet and not a systematic thinker, so his critiques can't be objectively persuasive, just emotionally so.

>>9727213
You seem to be suffering from Socratism.

>>9727213

There's no such thing as objectivity, as Nietzsche himself would tell you.

Emotionally persuasive is quite enough.

>>9727209

I think those few /pol/acks who've read Nietzsche are probably inclined to reject him because he doesn't take any prisoners among Conservatism/Reactionaries/Anti-Semites/etc either.

He's a jew who's natural enemy is the catholic church and traditional hierarchies. These he seeks to destroy through accelerating pure capitalism. Basically, he is the alt-kike.

>>9715224

Exactly

>>9727233
>there's no such thing as objectivity
Here we go again.

There's a difference between pointing out that democracy is bad because it allows for people to vote their interests into each others property, degenerating traditional social norms and natural hierarchies into pure hedonism and disregard for organic societal organizations - Hoppe - and saying that democracy is bad because [insert poetic cultural criticism of modern society and muh ubermensch] - Nietzsche.

>>9727209
Nietzsche is a fundamentally modern thinker. His attempt to "go back to the beginning" is a quintessentially modern impulse. One ought to note how he denigrates certain traditions that actually are ancient and that have a continuity with the ancient and medieval worlds (like Christianity, for example).

So this is the power of "objective" concepts.
