Geez, but these tech bros are DUMB.

Andreeson is a fucking moron

As is Drouthat. If there’s a twisted “As-a-catholic” take on any situation he’ll find it.

The Tick has a podcast?

Lightly edited, you see. Like, making Andreessen not sound like a paranoid fucking 4chan loon is light editing.

The NYT is a big fan of sane-washing our overlords. They do it constantly for Trump and Musk.

She had the power from beyond the election to radicalise another presidents government yet someone couldn’t make Comey shut the f up for like one critical week.

Okay, yeah, that tracks. (Probably cooked up the plot along w/the NYT Opinion section's other worst writer, Bret Stephens.)
