How would you describe your politics or ideology?

i’d say i am a reactionary but a fairly socially liberal personally but with emphasis on environmental design and technological advancement

Who are your biggest influences?

Mencius Moldbug, Here Be Dragons - book on Biogeography, Veer Savarkar - Indian Freedom Fighter, Kautilya’s Arthashastra - Book written about statesmanship by Chanakya during the Mauryan Empire’s rise, Patron Theory of Politics - Journal of Neoabsolutism and also to a large extent the New Atheist movement embarrassingly

When did you first learn about or start visiting online political communities?

Back in early 2017.

What was your ideology before entering these spaces?
Or how have your views evolved since you started participating?

I started off as a simple Bernie supporter and then felt my attitude towards islam change which brought me to new atheism and anarcho capitalism. For a long time i was a libertarian and then as of early 2018 i became staunchly against it and turned more reactionary. I am much more moderate now even though i hold reactionary views i lean more towards pragmatic realpolitik. New atheists don’t understand the idea of how populations work

What changes do you think we are likely to see in the next 10 years?

most surgical and medical jobs automated except for nursing. Repair jobs higher in demand and higher paid

What changes do you think we are likely to see in the next 40 years?

plenty of keystone species going extinct, affecting ecological development

What changes do you want to see in the next 10 years?

more clean energy being used and energy efficiency improving mechanically

What changes do you want to see in the next 40 years?

probably ageing cured or made slower and genetic engineering being used to eradicate cancer. I’m interested in transhumanism. Post scarcity is ideal

about 7 hours

What do they do during this leisure time?

probably go to the park or workout or do drugs

Share
