In the decade I have been reading pg, my opinion of him is that he is like Nietzsche, or Ayn Rand or Hayek or Scott Alexander: catnip for "free thinkers", a ready-made meal for people who crave thinking different; but ultimately fairly vacuous competed to the hype. Making grandiose claims out of the flimsiest of observations that fail at the slightest contact with reality, and only good at motivated reasoning.

Modern-day sophistry.
