just reposting the 2014 leaked email about how Scott Alexander (Scott Siskind) had specifically intended Slate Star Codex to promote neoreaction and race science
not a single person denied the email, they were just outraged at the leaker for breaking confidence
Yudkowsky even declared that they should be shunned, lol
this email is surprisingly little spoken of, I keep finding SSC/ACX readers who've never heard of it. for once the rationalists had the good sense not to fuss about it
i keep pointing centrists at this email and they can't reconcile the SSC article they liked with the writer of SSC explicitly saying he's trying to make them more racist
if you're wondering why techbros are all neoreactionaries these days, it's because they received scott's message fidelitously. SSC is a major vector of techfash radicalisation.
reasons to keep the fuckin receipts

hopefully this is alright with @[email protected], and I apologize for the clumsy format since we can’t pull posts directly until we’re federated (and even then lemmy doesn’t interact the best with masto posts), but absolutely everyone who hasn’t seen Scott’s emails yet (or like me somehow forgot how fucking bad they were) needs to, including yud playing interference so the rats don’t realize what Scott is
Simultanously complaining about the elite, but then saying it’s only because it’s been watered down by the plebs.
Vile understanding of “poetry” as status marker.
Not going back further in time than 19th century, and extremely suspiciously marking the “height” of peotry between 1920a to mid-1960s, not at all coinciding with the civil rights act.
Thank you for reminding me how vile Moldbug is ? ^^
