s/o to one of the comments basically saying that Scott is the Simone de Beauvoir of rationalism
It's probably been discussed a shit-ton already, but boy does this guy not get why he's a chud. Consider these two quotes, heavily edited for brevity:

Of course, one shouldn't expect s11n.blog to understand the fascist, let alone right-wing, nature of liberalism or Zionism. That is simply how fascists are.
Doing some reading about the SAG-AFTRA video game voice acting strike. Anyone have details about "Ethovox", the AI company that SAG has apparently partnered with?

Oh, that's a good angle too. Prompt the LLM with "what insights does this book have about B2B sales" or something.
