This must be the dumbest motherfucker to have ever existed, I can't believe people consider them to be a genius in anything other than gaslighting and projection. Almost every single line could be ranked among the most absurd takes I have ever read. I did not know that it was possible to experience such intense feelings of cringe outside of Twitter. The industrial revolution and its consequences indeed.

what absolutely useless drivel- like he typed this stuff out and thought he was breaking new ground with this half-assed psychoanalysis of people he doesn't know? And for some reason it appears the greatest (secret) and worst desire of the "leftish philosophers" is their quest for power, something that Ted would never relate to in his campaign to terrorize society to uhh give up technology? good fuckin luck with that.

idk if the funniest and most contradictory part where he's like oh there's (some) truth that society doesn't live up to its ideals- but still, leftists wrongly claimed those values and even more wrongly complain when society behaves poorly. Which just doesn't make sense.
