VeganPizza69 ⓋⒶ<p>🧵2/3</p><p> It's also important to note that fascists don't really have an ideology, so it's not useful to focus just on ideology. </p><p>In the rat race of the "law of the jungle", these proto and paleo fascists also focus on what's now called "biohacking". Well, the rich get real biohacking like that plant-based rich guy who wants to live forever, Bryan Johnson, and the rest get more and more pseudoscientific products; scams. </p><p>The thing with diets is that the if you're not getting acute toxicity or poisons, you don't really grasp how harmful it can be, especially if it's not found in long-term population studies.</p><p>It's such a pain in the moral ass. These meat clowns are harming themselves with their ignorance and LARP diets, and that forces me to figure out if I should warn them or if I should just let them earn Darwin awards. Either way, they are feeding a not-so-modern grifting economy, which spreads this contagion of foolishness to others. </p><p><a href="https://veganism.social/tags/meat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>meat</span></a> <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/ratRace" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ratRace</span></a> <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fascism</span></a> <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/JungleLaw" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JungleLaw</span></a> <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/biohacking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>biohacking</span></a> <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/pseudoscience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pseudoscience</span></a> <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/skeptic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>skeptic</span></a> <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/scam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>scam</span></a> <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/carnivore" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>carnivore</span></a> <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/keto" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>keto</span></a> <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/LionDiet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LionDiet</span></a> <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/meatclown" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>meatclown</span></a> <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fascism</span></a> <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/reactionary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>reactionary</span></a> <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/reactionaryDiet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>reactionaryDiet</span></a></p>

Weltschmerz à Gogo<p>Even at this late stage, the combination of such an extreme lack of self-awareness and so much self-pity all wrapped up in a single person is just astonishing.</p><p>====</p><p>Yarvin seems shocked that Musk (with zero government experience except for a reliance on government contracts) is doing such a poor job. He also seems chagrined at Trump's specific actions, like tariffs, which are throwing markets into chaos. In political terms, the whole thing is a total disaster. By early 2025, millions of Americans are marching in streets and even Republican voters are showing up at town halls to express seething anger.</p><p>Yarvin seems to have come to a stark realization: If Musk/Trump fail to destroy the democratic system, extreme anti-government pseudo-intellectuals may face a bleak future. He urgently warns them against half-assing the revolution – and reveals his own fear of what might happen when the pendulum swings in the other direction:</p><p> But in the end, it is the road toward winding up in the foam yourself—probably with me, for all my troubles.
