Even back in '09 I noticed he was acting erratic. At first he'd randomly delete mildly critical comments on *Accelerating Future*, then posts, then the blog itself would go up and down, until he just took down the blog in general. Which thinking about what happened with *More Right* and with neoreactionaries there's obviously a pattern there.
Her comment about Russia sure hasn’t aged well, and was actually
pretty poorly informed to begin with. As I understand it, her claim
against Zunger is that he was trying to use rationality to explain a
highly irrational world. If everyone had that attitude, human
civilization would still be in the stone age.
The Zunger posts that she links to are actually examining the various
forms of bigotry that drove support for Trump, in an attempt to
understand and counteract them. Rather than ally herself with Zunger and
others who seek to protect the marginalized, she decided to rail against
neoliberalism. How’s that working out?
