Most people are missing the actual point of this article. It isn't to seriously advocate for cannibalism.

Look at the argument: rationally, LOGICALLY, if you're pro-eating meat, there's no argument against eating babies, or the dead

This is just a setup for the conclusion:
Things are so dire we could LOGICALLY eat humans. But that's disgusting haha, we totally agree we should never do that haha

So just stop eating meat and eat bugs instead! Whew. Isn't that so much nicer than the option we just used to shock your sensibilities with?
Some in our sphere have argued this perverse new push of "eat the crickets, bigot" is just clickbait, basic PR for various Silicon Valley bug-farm startups

Well, there isn't any of that here. Is there.

It's just propaganda for why you need to accept a declining standard of life
I like how they slide in "there's also the prospect of cultured meat technology." The promise is, obvs, that things will get worse for you in the short term

But don't worry. Your Silicon Valley saviors will have you eating burgers again in no time

You just have to trust them!

This isn't some great mystery. Core cities are people-sinks, as they have been since the days of Franklin, if not 2000 years before him

Ideology and unnatural migration has caused these places to be unable to replace themselves, let alone our cities. Both places are now punished
Image
Nevertheless, the outer-productive regions were still able to sort of maintain themselves as industrial zones and city-feeders until the Regime stripped their means of life, industrialization, from them
Now they have neither the ideology to replace themselves nor the economic means to support themselves to provide for the cities that robbed from them (and, to be fair, enriched us all) for centuries

The old system broke down. All that remains, for the system, is mass migration

We are out of Afghanistan because of Trump, and we are *in* Ukraine because pols like the Clintons + Bidens turned it into their personal colony/paypig

Trump's foreign policy was his greatest achievement for Americans. We need not just one Trump, but fifty Trumps
Americans buy into lies like Iraq and now Ukraine because our eternal political class has convinced them to believe in lies, against our own interests as citizens

It is not a "fringe concern." Our guy literally ran our policies. And they absolutely ruled for the American people
This is apparent from the first day that Trump won election. When our domestic ruling class declared that "Russian interference" was the only reason he won

And went on to impeach him over it. Look, that's fucking weird, no Americans cared about Russia then

The Regime has a lot of overlap with Moldbug's concept of the Cathedral, but the Cathedral was meant to be more persuasive, more liberal, hidden

The Regime is what happens when liberalism finishes its logic and moves to illiberal leftism, and with that becomes overtly coercive
The Cathedral is at least a century old, but I think it's just now gone through a phase transition, as it exhausted a lot of its liberal premises of equality

While at the same time discovering it has captured enough of the people and the elite to *abandon* equality
Which means it has the power to enforce its next phase, "equity," i.e. equality through use of force

While it shares things with previous forms of illiberal leftism, this is a uniquely American evolution of it, and also one that draws on modern forms of "force"

Regular reminder that this was already diagnosed in The Elementary Particles 25 years ago. Reason and its infinite promises of liberation from any guiding strictures doesn't lead to better lives

It leads to a form of frozenness, an inability to judge and take action
The book's parallel narrative preemptively demolishes the MedGold-level response to this, "just increase the fuck rate," "just talk to her dude" The 20th century's two totems were pure reason and free sex. Both are shown as dead ends, incapable of giving humans what they need
The two horns of the ideology turn out to be twins in what they promise: liberation from the bounds of our basic being

Which is why both broke when they were put into practice. The outcome of both characters in The Elementary Particles is disgust with themselves.

Unusually insightful article by a Zoomer about Zoomers, that gets at my main idea about the current age: the post-war order is a paralyzing agent, an ideology that strips us of all spirit + will to act

Most visibly as he describes it in youth + children

americanaffairsjournal.org/2023/05/the-zo…
This to me is the key passage. Combined with being stripped of all meaningful values—turns out "diversity" doesn't provide personal, human meaning—

This draining of spirit leaves people angry, but unaware of what they're angry at. And unable to act against it even if they knew Image
In short (and this isn't a uniquely Zoomer problem, it's just most concentrated there) there is an immense sense of betrayal, with no actual understanding of what that betrayal *is*, and no spirit to change it

Daily reminder that California's had negative internal migration for 25 years

This means Americans have been abandoning it since before the turn of the century. California's population growth is entirely immigrant-based

He's not speaking to America. But to its replacement
It feels like it should be bigger news, that American citizens have been abandoning beautiful California for *a quarter of a century*

But of course it doesn't matter, because they hate their own citizens, they *want* them driven out, and replaced by vote banks
Btw California's governor knows it's a joke that his "28th Amendment," his annulment of the 2A, can never pass with 2/3 of the states' votes

*No* constitutional amendment will never pass again. Ever. That is proof there is no longer a single nation here. It's dead and gone
