Coping with the Modern World
6th March 2008
Mencius Moldbug, in the course of announcing a hiatus, generates an afflatus.
Unfortunately for nonprogressives, progressives run the world, so there has to be some way to get a message to them. Unfortunately for progressives, they are quite unaware that they run the world. They believe it is run by their enemies, who oppress them or are at least trying to, and must be resisted with all their energy. If we could convince them that this was a misperception, we could convince them to stop being progressives. The matter is not without delicacy.
And that’s the truest thing you’ll read today.
