Moldbug (Yarvin) saw the doorway but he couldn’t walk through it to comprehend what to do about it. Just as he saw the cathedral problem and didn’t know what to do about it. Just as he saw the political problem, or the money problem, and not what to do about them – and for the reasons I’ve ‘uncomfortably’ explained. The only other living person that I know understands the problem anywhere near as I do is Josha Bach, and he only sees a part of it. “What went wrong” began in 1830 with babbage’s failure. Everything compounded on his failure to explain his discovery. It’s as if darwin and his competitor came to the wrong conclusion.
