Do you have a dumb question that you're kind of embarrassed to ask in the main thread? Is there something you're just not sure about?
This is your opportunity to ask questions. No question too simple or too silly.

Notes -
The one that’s always passed over who was just as influential as Yarvin in the beginning is Nick Land, and specifically his blog Xenosystems (which is now available in book form on passage press.)
That’s the thing that really convinced me; before I read that I was more of a reluctant paleo-libertarian. It’s very arcane but ironically if you’re a high systemizing blue tribe type it might be more legible than even Yarvin.
He’s a former Marxist so he’s much more haute academic that some of the punters you get on X; no offense to them, I’m just as much a schlub compared to Nick Land as the most low rent dissident rightist.
Interestingly enough I found Scott Alexander sort of backwards from Nick Land; Land brought me to Moldbug who was critiqued by Scott. So I’m in this forum mostly because of Nick Land.
