> Ah, yes, I remember Yarvin. His goal was to become a cult leader for billionaires whose brains had turned to mush from surrounding themselves with only yes-men for decades.

Many such cases: Ray Kurzweil, Eliezer Yudkowsky, etc.

It's really bizarre that these bozos seem to be in control now. Don't see how it ends well.

Yudkowsky isn't a billionaire nor someone who cons them. Did you mean someone else?

Yudkowsky’s MIRI was funded by Thiel in its early days. And I think that was a good thing btw. They have a noble mission.

I doubt Kurzweil is a billionaire as well.

It’s pretty clear to me they mean Yudkowsky is another con ?

I'm not aware of anything he sales, where to do I buy his merch? Jones had horse pills.
