I do rather like the obscurist firehose using appeal to authority fallacy label. I had thought of it as an anti-realist hedonist with a neo-stoicism mask.
The overlap with the Yarvin & Dugin tentacles on Substack was rather eye-opening for me if you ever desire that displeasure.
The role Vance plays is interesting for two reasons: he is not at all part of the tech bro aristocracy (he is at best a bought and paid for whore for their views), and his “assertion of power” presumes Ukraine is losing - which is flat-out wrong. P.S.: if there’s any President to thank, it’s Biden.
I don't know how to look into this but are there any Bircher influences on Mr. Yarvin? Or do all these neo-feudal philosophies just all end up sounding the same?

they are waging total war on the idea that meaning has meaning
