He's too fond of arcane stuff and stability. He's a boring shitlord who doesn't believe in equality and multiculturalism. Fuck Mencius Moldbug, he's a nerd.

The key to power in the Fourth Republic is that no one who has power wants anyone to think of them as having power. For example, in the traditional iron triangle, legislators do not have power. They are just expressing the will of the people. Civil servants do not have power. They are just making public policy. Lobbyists do not have power. They are just communicating their concerns.

This is a profoundly Orwellian situation. The root of the problem is that the modern English language has no word which means "power," but carries only positive associations.

Perhaps the most important fact about power is that the powerful are almost always sincere. They honestly believe they are doing good. Every Sauron considers himself a Boromir. And - as Acton observed - every Boromir has an inner Sauron. Since this is widely recognized, and since "power" is generally associated with "evil," the people in the US who have actual power do not and cannot think of themselves as having power.

It's basically "who controls the memeplex, controls the world."
Another excerpt;

The press (aka "MSM") is a major vertex because, as we've seen, it has power. And it is doubly protected. First, no one elects the press. And second, if journalists were elected, they'd simply elect themselves, since they pick the "credible" candidates. These would all be journalists - by definition. See how nice this system is?

The White House (customarily referred to as the "President") is only a minor vertex. Its legal power is considerable, but its protection is lousy. It was national news a few years ago when an open mike caught the President insulting a New York Times reporter. How often do you think that one goes the other way? The White House can challenge the Polygon's program on a few issues, which necessarily thus become high-profile. But the Fourth Republic, at any one time, is doing thousands and thousands of things. Almost all of them are done the Polygon's way, and when they are not it is deeply shocked and offended. So in general are the voters, for obvious reasons, so there is a strong reason to minimize these deviations.

The Polygon might be defined as the "extended civil service." It consists not of those who hold actual formal GS rank, but those whose position demands a sense of civic responsibility - real or fake. The major vertices of the Polygon, by my count, are the press, the universities, the judiciary, the Fed and the banks, the "Hill" (congressional staff), the civil service proper, the NGOs and transnationals, the military, the Beltway bandits (defense and other contractors), and corporate holders of official monopolies (such as "intellectual property").

that sure is an opinion...

>>73505804
It sure is. It also makes a lot of sense.

>>73506351
does it though? It doesn't actually say anything other than a mistrust of instutions because... why exactly?

Pretty basic-bitch material wrapped up with typical NRx jargon.
