Moldbug gets a little more unhinged with every post

“Scott's friend asked him to shill their company in a blog post with a direct solicitation for investors and, surprisingly enough, he went with it?”

Oh, if only the ACX community paid the same amount of disdainful scrutiny they have for the field of nutrition to HBD and 'intelligence' 'research'

Pseudophilosophy encourages confused, self-indulgent thinking and wastes our resources. The cure for pseudophilosophy is a philosophical education. More specifically, it is a matter of developing the kind of basic critical thinking skills that are taught to philosophy undergraduates.

Citi report on bitcoin that was clearly written by a bitcoin. There's nothing like reading big money reports from big money companies for big money clients and realising "yep, it's bozos all the way down". Ctrl-F for "tether" for comedy gold excuses.

You ever walk into a store only to find the owner making very loud farts into small vials, a row of which being aligned on the counter, pausing occasionally to take a whiff off one of them like poppers and laughing manically before trying to sell you one? Anyway here's Moldbug on, uh, HBD I guess?

Scott Siskind has opinions about class in America

Motter says our own /u/dgerard has "gone far into hate groups"

BBC News - Bitcoin energy use 'bigger than most countries
