Do you guys think I could pull off this look? Be honest

Incredibly naive take. The complexity built into linguistic syntax is an off-loading of required human thought. For just one facet, consider the premise of vector embedding in LLMs. This is possible because word associations reduce load of independent thought in considering the next word you speak aloud. Imagine yourself turning concept prompts into language, an inference machine. Languages are different fine-tunings. With great enough linguistic difference entirely different difficulties are placed on conceptual loads. Most "people" are unthinking automata generating probable responses to one another. The rest of us are dragged down by exposure to the illiterate on mass platforms as we get our own weights retrained downward toward the zalpha-postliterate post-aave Tiktois (think: any comment section on any platform). The High English of the Victorian aristocracy was the high water mark for English. Power-users deployed the model to explore a wide-range of psychogeographies. This required training and an environment of preservation for this level of linguistic scaffolding. Latin provided this throughout the Middle Ages for the narrow literate class of Europe and preserved the wisdom of the ancients. We must soon land upon new opt-in languages for an intellectual elite. English is dying downward. It is the international peasant trade tongue. From a pedagogical standpoint, you're better off introducing youth to high concepts through a foreign tongue such that they embrace its novelty fully. This builds in the scaffolding for a higher baseline. Anyway, regarding the "redundancy" of foreign languages: absolutely not. They each contain a truth of the human as the single greatest gestalt of a people. The sum of all languages is the encoding of our story. It is history dimensionally reduced into syntax. Forgetting a language is closing off that realm of insight forever.

the most high quality far right people combine very high openness with extremely low agreeability and low neuroticism. it estranges you from normies but you can still find your people

Martian Dubai is the coming manifestation of Hell. Do not emigrate. Do not accept the work visa. Get as far north as you can before its too late.

One good metric for a writer is to ask "Who do they imagine they're writing for?" If they say "cattle", they are pulp authors of little merit collecting a check or advancing careers (that's fine). At this point, the story is broken. It has been broken for years. And yet all this shlock in 12 months. Pure opportunism. You have to add something new, some insight to the story to justify the piece. But if its mostly the """scandal""" of Nick's existence and how """weird""" it is everyone in tech likes him, please do not publish. That was a 1 and done and it is done. Journos of the commentariat: your bar is set higher. Stop underperforming. This is exactly the summaryslop Grok can already tell you about the Nick Land Party. You are already automated (thank your editor for their ignorance (and their tasteless for believing this is any better than AI-timeline summaries)). Readers: you get the slop you consume. Stop reading. Stop clicking. Use removepaywall,com if you must. If you must "discourse", don't give them the gift of a name. Punish authors by denying authorship. Where are the critics? If they were here they would engage Nick's ideas not his context. Again, they did the same to Yarvin and not a single journalist has added to the debate. At their best their "synthesis" amounts to "symptomatic" readings--"Oh Yarvin is an outgrowth of VC-industrial complex." Tell us something we don't know, please. And if you think "not everyone is as online as you guys. I have to meet a wider audience where they're at", I refer you to my opening sentence.

THIS IS NOT FUCKING REAL HELLO?? 😭😭
