Thanks for the thought-provoking responses. I think part of the problem was that I was I wasn’t demarcating lower degrees of exit with flat-out race-strong secessionism.

I’m fascinated by an’ Exit-based society of peer-to-peer law’, and I’ll keep an eye on developments at your blog, along with Szabo’s original writings. Thanks for the links too. I’ll have a look at the Agent-based modelling article, along with your blog!

Nick, surely you’re going to need to revise your former opinion in light of MW’s searing prose?

“It’s hard to tell a neutral person about The Catherdral without them giggling that it sounds like a conspiracy. For instance, This is what Moldbug has to say about crime:”

It would be wrong to think of the Cathedral as a conspiracy. They just work towards the same goals because they have the same religion.

Is there a world wide Sunni Muslim conspiracy to implement Sharia law? No, people with the same belief system don’t have to conspire, they naturally work towards the same goals, although they may quibble over details or interpretations from time to time.

Is there a world wide Progressive conspiracy to implement Progressivism? No, people with the same belief system don’t have to conspire, they naturally work towards the same goals, although they may quibble over details or interpretations from time to time.

Immigrants aren’t necessarily believing Progressives, but Progressives and immigrants have common interests. Low IQ third world immigrants can get a better life by collecting welfare (or affirmative action jobs) in the West. Progressives can get more people to vote for them by bringing in low IQ immigrants from the third world to collect welfare. Maybe they also value the decrease in homogeneity, the uprooting and alienation that mass immigration brings, maybe they’re not thinking that far ahead. Either way, free votes, more problems for government to solve, what’s not to like?
