The billionaire who wants to live forever just admitted he has long covid. Specifically, covid wrecked his lungs. If you haven’t come across him, Bryan Johnson is a 46-year-old tech bro who cashed out a few years ago and now spends all his time trying not to die.
The Cathedral was such a good memetic thing, super attractive to talk about for anybody with NRx/far right brainworms, incomprehensible why you would use that term to normal people, and made you instantly recognizable as a person to be careful around for anti-fascists, or person of interest for any gov orgs looking into people radicalizing. A bit like the globohomo dogwhistle, it fails because it just looks weird to normal people. At least the alt-right picked a cartoon as their icon.
But it’s weird because NRx/far right people are often very into the sort of people associated with Cathedrals. Royalty; conservative cardinals who wear the full antiquated costume and gewgaws; etc.
The killer app is to filter out the fascists and gather them in one convenient place.
See also Yarvin’s idea about people opting out of “the Cathedral” and suddenly taking power.
