I would urge anybody who wants to soothe their fears to avoid reading up on Curtis Yarvin.

Nice trick. I couldn’t stop myself from looking:

  • The weirdest thing about those pieces (which I have not read) are the glamour shots. Why cover a political subject like that as if they are a beloved children's author or a lifestyle piece? It's a very unusual and strange thing to do for politics, and says a lot about the editors at these media outlets.

Giving federal employees 6+ month severance packages is a far cry from what Yarvin wrote ought to happen them.

Trump really can't get anything right.
