View submission: Curtis Yarvin Says Democracy Is Done. Powerful Conservatives Are Listening.

It’s scary that the NY Times gave Curtis Yarvin a platform like this to talk about ending democracy, and never questioning this argument at all. They never once pointed out that throughout all of history, people suffer the most under the political system that Yarvin is advocating.

Literally anyone with a political science degree would massacre this numb skull. He acts like he's the first person to discover the concept of feudalism, which is essentially what he's advocating for. It's destructive, regressive, and only serves to benefit wealth holders.

I've even seen him in an interview even admit that the public would have to "get lucky" with their first monarch/dictator to prevent having oppression becoming the norm for the society. This is ridiculous.
