The OP asked for a link to "the most objectionable content by Curtis Yarvin". The article I linked was the only specific Moldbug post I saw those on Twitter objecting to.
OP didn't ask for third party articles complaining about Curtis Yarvin, so your comment appears disingenuous.
It was relevant to the statement I was replying to: "I see more and more echoes of the worldview and tactics that ultimately killed just shy of a hundred million people or so last century, and yes, it scares me." You've labeled yourself a communist in the past, if that's not strictly accurate I stand corrected.
My personal background is well known. I'm here logged in with my real name, I'm not hiding it. I don't know how Gawker's opinion of me is exactly relevant to whether or not you're a communist but that's fine.
If there's nothing wrong with being a communist why are you acting like I've slandered you by bring your background into this? It doesn't add up.
I'm not talking about the mainstream. I'm talking about hiring and funding within our industry. If you haven't noticed a chilling effect over the last few years, maybe you don't have any nonconforming opinions.
This guy sounds like he would be happy to see anti-Zionism as a litmus test for conference speakers.
Is that the kind of tech industry you want? Should speakers at technical conferences have all their political opinions pre-vetted for approval by a panel of progressives?
It'll be his decision next time too. And now that the Red Guards know he'll succumb to even the slightest bit of pressure, there will certainly be a next time.
The repeated kills of previous threads on this topic illustrate the problem goes much deeper than Strangeloop. HN itself has long been policed by left wing stormtroopers eliminating anything they disagree with.
I used to believe it could be saved but now I generally believe that the era of technology having a place for iconoclastic freethinkers is long over.
That's comforting.
