dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

He was a self help guy for the dumbest nerds of silicon valley. His idea was that if you used logic and reason you could make better decisions in your life. Somehow he then told everyone conservative libertarian theory was the most rational and to also give him money to do workshops about it. Would you belive that he created a sex cult for programmers and after that went as you would expect he was an intellectual dark web kinda guy.

And this was the guy that made that silly Harry Potter fanfic? Incredible. Weirded timeline.

Bonus, his self insert hero character invents falgsc and uses the contradictions of liberalism to do it. Which he denied when I point out the implications of his work. So like the exact mathematically dumbest smart person. A fascinating case
