Oh, honey…
Congratulations! In an effort to be interesting and unique, you have rendered yourself as boring and predictable as possible — how do you plead? Hey stop photoshopping vaporwave succ memes for a second and listen to me
No.
The year is 2033…
Under the direction of the Australian Environmental Working Group, an army of thousands of killer snakebots, created by the Omega Corporation, has been unleashed to eliminate cane toads from the continent. No one thought it could go wrong.
Now the killer snakebots have been hijacked by a vicious terrorist group, and only one man can stop them… the man that created them.
As long as you use an expansive definition of the term ‘man’.

Just wrote a script that printed out "Scott is a Neoreactionary" 10000 times. Now we shall finally find out what the platonic ideal form of rightwing-ness is.
You didn’t know?
Scott is already the most powerful Neoreactionary that has ever lived.
Even from within the tenth circle of the seventh star of the dark sun, chained in magical bindings by the Eight Scholars of Justice Eternal, pursued relentlessly by the Harbingers of Anti-Fate, his power leaks through into our world, disguised as “steelmanned” defenses of Liberalism.
Every word uttered in his true form converts ten children to the principles of sidereal nationalism. It is through only his whispers that the one known as Moldbug came to Awakeness. His mere gaze shatters all known forms of modernity.
He cannot stop, and he cannot be stopped.
It was the breaking of the fifth seal, causing parts of our world to come unmoored from Time, which allowed me to enter the past and spread my message of darkness.
Because “diversity” doesn’t mean what it’s usually made to mean.
This is not the diversity post I have been putting off writing, but it is adjacent to it.
no one actually cares about diversity of ideas when they say diversity, which just means “stable tribal representation”
Argumate, I demand we instantiate the maximum possible number of ethnic groups in order to maximize diversity. If we work hard at it, we can approach a distribution of N groups, each with their own language, practices, and styles of dress, where N is the size of the population, then get passed over for admission to Harvard.

Bisexuality, the naive centrism of sexuality.
Anon, honey kun, this is a really bad take and you should feel bad.
Modern political theorists haven’t modeled orientation-party-metaphor as a single axis since at least the publication of the Ganymede Papers in 1917. Most now model it as either a 17 or 5-dimensional manifold, depending on whether their simulations need full granularity.
Even using the outdated dual-axis Barker-McWillis partition of the orientation space shows that bisexualism isn’t centrism.
I really don’t know how I and every other gender-ideostruct theorist can be clearer about this.

Maybe I'm just biased by having a singular ginger family member, but gingers are really more like being gay than being a race. Maybe we need to raise a distinction between de novo gingers and ethnic gingers (who are more commonly known as the Irish, as I understand it).
The early Twenty-First Century was a time of many unusual ginger-themed political movements, including the Ginger Nationalist Movement, the Principality of Sea-Ginger, and the “One Red Hair” Club.
let monster women look monstrous u fucking cowards
You think that sht pays for itself? You think fucking superconducting magnets for building these enormous full prosthetic bodies are free or something?
Alright, when my company makes some licensed, snake-themed anime bullsht, we can reliably sell 400,000 units. Yeah, that’s not a typo. Not forty units. Not four hundred units. Four hundred thousand units.
That’s what people want. That’s what they buy. That’s what they’re willing to pay for. We are in the business of making what people are willing to pay for. Microtanium alloy does not come cheap.
You think we haven’t tried more ‘exotic’ body designs? We’ve done that. Small batches. Little unique touches for all of them. Totally novel arm and shoulder designs.
You know who buys that? Collectors. Every time we try it it’s a struggle to sell the whole batch for more than it cost us to make it.
That “dumb” pretty design you’re railing against, that is so popular, is compatible with every door handle, every stove, most typical tops, most typical hats, and so on. You can go out tomorrow and buy everything you need for it. All the catalogs already exist, and where they don’t, “human equipment will do.”
Not to mention that, even leaving aside that most of our customers still have to interface with business environments, most humans aren’t gossisexual, they aren’t going to adapt to something too far outside the human bodyplan, and most of our customers don’t want to look hideous, even in the N- and L-band neurotypes. Even shifting most of the muscle control on e.g. the spider special mode to software is straining the neuroplasticity limits of the human brain, and neuroplasticity amplifiers are not free of side-effects.
This is just so woefully naive and idealistic. Really, I’ve had it up to here with outsiders trying to force their aesthetic preferences on my industry.
If you want such a monstrous body, go buy it yourself. There are hundreds, maybe thousands of custom shops that will put one together for you. But don’t go btching about how “your monsterwoman synth bodies don’t look monstrous enough”.
