I didn't find Game of Thrones "morally gray," I found it a monochrome where the only motivations were power, vanity, and an almost senseless cruelty

It was packed with all the lower human drives—but virtually none of the higher ones. Hence an inhuman and ultimately flat work GoT hooked me, as it did many, for its "gritty realism," its willingness to discard le tropes

But the further I got into it, and the more it revealed its vision of human nature, the more unreal it felt to me. It felt like Martin didn't actually understand people at all.

Yes, a huge part of this was about music critics trying to just allow each other (esp. themselves) to just *enjoy* pop music instead of being guillotined by Pitchfork etc for their plebeian taste

The hipster internet circular firing squad kind of predicted the leftism to come Art being immeasurable, its criticism was always meant to be something of a brawl

Once critics couldn't come out and say "Best Creed album in years!" without risk of Total Social Death, and were too timid to resist this pressure, the "experts" pretty much ceased to be of use

No, we're not doing this again. Imperial units are proportioned to the human body (measure your forearm against your foot sometime) over thousands of years of living

Metric system is just something murderous French rationalists made up to scrub the world of our connection to it The most brutal refutation of this is that we never switched to a metric system of time. Why don't we have re-standardized "10 hour days," composed of 100 "minutes" each, composed of 100 "seconds" each?

Because people don't live by factors of 10. They live by *the planet*

In fact the left's recommendation of how to respond to predatory criminals is just the prey animal's response to danger

Any time these people try to morally shame you, remember you're taking your ethical parameters from literal *prey* Do you remember how after the assassination attempt on Donald Trump the left created a conspiracy theory it must be fake based on the idea no person would stand up like this after he was just shot in the head Image

Btw @SwannMarcus89 has lost 2.4K followers in the 24 hours since he locked his account in disgrace, an average of 100 every hour.

Shall we go back through a week of his predictions? I thought it would be funny to keep a record. Image

My personal stories about illegals aren't even that bad. No murders, rapes, etc.

But if you work with immigrants for long enough, they will eventually start bringing in co-ethnic workers even *they* can't trust. And you won't know what these people are like until after the fact If you work with unskilled immigrants—often, just *one* of them—you will eventually hear weird stories, from the people *they* bring in to help

Their co-ethnics have been stealing from them. Undercutting them on jobs. They have two wives, one here, one in their native country

Within democracies, the voters of the US, UK, and France are now all obliterating their "center-right" in favor of a far right, while the panicked lib-centrist "Adults In The Room" shovel their power to the far left

Lib-centrist democracy is dead. And mass migration killed it Whatever else happens, 20th century liberal democracy has—depending on your perspective—either killed itself, or been forced to reveal what it was all along

The genie can't be put into the bottle. That form of government, and its norms, is now behind us for good

These are all minor factors at most, and in many cases don't matter at all. The overwhelming causes of violent crime are 1) your genetic lineage and 2) the state's willingness to let crime exist.

1) horrifies the left, causing them to stampede to increase 2) as hard as they can The leftist explanation for crime is it is always, exclusively caused by *external* factors

The liberal response to this is to policy-tweak those factors away

The leftist response is to punish you for *causing* the factors that "made" these people criminals to begin with

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

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

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

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

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

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

CNN is supposed to remember the lesson of 2016, that counter to Hillary's "Pied Piper" strategy of giving Trump infinite airtime to expose him as a dangerous lunatic, it turned out people loved hearing him humiliate these people

The new answer was to deplatform him, everywhere Democracy is no longer real, if it ever was, by now we all know it's a matter of who is in control of determining *for* the public what the truth is

Any space where people are allowed to speak outside the truth apparatus—like social media—are immediately taken over by the regime

I get why Floridians and "return to normalcy" people like DeSantis. But show me anything he believes that will get him Deep Stated if elected

If Trump wasn't enough, I don't want "normalcy." I want Double Trump. I don't want the Ronald Reagan of the 2020s

Trump isn't weird, he's extremely normal. The media/Deep State etc went into freakout mode when he connected with normal people, that's *why* they went insane

If DeSantis can't freak out our ruling class, then he will simply extend our ruling class

This is what Houellebecq constantly describes through literature, the extension of thought embodied by Huxley ('30s) into Lennon ('60s), which H's own mother believed in, and left him raised by his grandparents, and when his characters live the same lifestyle, find deadening Within H.'s "lived experience," the utopia of "Imagine nothing to kill or die for" means, in practice, being abandoned by your hedonist parents who hate you while watching your nation commit a paralyzed self-euthanasia because it hates itself

Leaving nothing ImageImage

In celebration of the 25th anniversary of the first English translation of Houellebecq's first novel, WHATEVER, here is what he had to say about the impacts of therapy on those who most promote it

Compare to the average (former) blue check journalist and see if you disagree 🤔 Whenever someone promotes "therapy" or any of these other post-war idiocies, rather than a "fact-check" or whatever, they should just come attached with the absolute nastiest thing Houellebecq ever said on the subject

See which is more convincing, some journo, or H.

Modern leftism is so dumb its biologists don't accept there is ethnic variation between strength, speed, intelligence, or height

Imagine thinking that is pseudoscience when we have Bajau spleens or the huge divergence between Tibetan and Andean evo-response to high altitude life

Modern leftism is so dumb it thinks intelligence is advantageous in all environments when we, right now, are living in an era that is actively selecting for lower intelligence

But maybe this explains their existence

Lmao. You are literally the guy who caused the ultra-leftist Brazilian Supreme Court to undo all of Pres. Luna's charges, just so you could get rid of Bolsonaro, the "threat to democracy" who might have actually reformed your hyper-authoritarian court

You get what you deserve I'm sorry that your liberalism is dead, but it's certainly not the right that killed it, that's been made perfectly clear by the ruling powers' response to Trump, and Bolsonaro, etc. They're just reformers

But it's been made perfectly clear the regime will allow no reform.

It's still insane to me that Hoeullebecq was making arguments like this a generation ago and I'm still only hearing them stated—at least this plainly—when I go back and read him

I believe this exhaustion is the fundamental condition of liberalism. Its Rosetta Stone Image He hit this point even harder a few years later in The Elementary Particles, where he dramatized this condition as a paralysis that *leads* to the exhaustion

Infinite choice, total freedom, leads paradoxically to the inability to judge, and thus to act, subverting the will
