Rage Against the Cathedral - Curtis Yarvin, Dark Enlightenment - DSci 181

Curtis Yarvin is a blogger from the Dark Enlightenment movement,
who advocates for the position that democracy is a failed
experiment that should be replaced with an accountable monarchy
that mirrors the structure at the top of corporations. One of the
main points of evidence for how democracy has failed is the
emergence of science as a phenomenon of trust and power, where
consensus is used as a cudgel to nudge and motivate the behavior
of populations, downstream of a complex mixture of financial and
personal incentives. We talk about the nature of this
degradation, the burden of proof in a world that's one step short
of a simulation, and the path our from the crisis we're in.
