but people *recognize* this stuff today too anon, don't you think? Buzzfeed just had to lay off a shit-ton of reporters, and everybody who covered the Smollett hoax uncritically now looks like a massive toolbox.

there's no question the Cathedral is for real, read Moldbug. it unquestionably is, and it gets exposed by dozens of YouTube and other commentators on an almost daily basis now. Donald Trump is unironically the POTUS and he waxed Hilary in the 2016 election. Robin DiAngelo is batty and everybody who tries to interview Dorsey (Rogan, Harris, soon Eric Weinstein) comes away with the same feeling, that he just keeps pivoting. Ezra Klein is a jerk. Zuckerberg is an alien. Kushner is even more complicated, because he now belongs to House Trump. you're not wrong. the good news is that it's way easier to see the machinations of it all than it used to be. when i read YouTube comments on things like the Munk debates i'm honestly comforted by the overwhelming consensus on a guy like MDE being a complete fucking fraud, things like this. it's gonna be okay.

>Ironically it's the gays and fems that flock to blood elves
kek, is that really the case? wow

it's just a wickedly fucked-up time and going to be more so. reading the philosophers has given me only a greater sense of why that is, ultimately. and that attempts to cram the Djinn back in the bottle are fucking doomed. we have to make peace with this rolling wave of fantasies, i think, kind of go with the flow without losing our minds completely. and not becoming seduced by dreams that are ultimately all of vengeance and romance.

maybe it's a good thing that we don't really know who the people playing WoW are. i'm just going to keep this in mind, the next time i encounter the world's greatest Blood Elf impersonator (or Horde devotee, or whatever). in general cultivating a slack-jawed bewilderment and total fucking stupidity about all of it is really what looks good on me. you know nothing, girardfag, and may it ever be so
