since Google became a thing (as in it took over from AltaVista)

it was becoming better for my purposes, and as manipulators advanced their counteradvances worked up to 2014 or so

but it’s gotten less useful to me lately not for their fault but because the content is just shittier

if I look up some obscure corner of history the first page are listicles and the second page are stupid angry propaganda nationalist bloggers and the third page is stupid angry authentic nationalist bloggers and it’s only in the fourth page I get the intelligent authentic angry nationalist bloggers I know how to compensate for

The quick version is pointing out his graceful slides into and out of movements and moments, the way he poses humility while he actively tries to become a kingmaker - in everyone currently important’s comments all the time making intelligent points, making posts whose real point I can tell is to link to some upstart and baptize them as within the “/ourguy/ but acceptable” circle

The way he namedrops more and more as the years go on, the time I was at a libertarian establishment event in the 2000s and at the afterparty we related these sophisticated insights and outrages to each other and I wondered who was going to first mention we OBVIOUSLY all got this from him but no one

The way the skeleton key to him is his sports posts, about golf course design and high school football and about his postwar utopia San Fernando Valley childhood where all the Protestant and Catholic and Jewish kids were casually American together and that’s what made everyone think the blacks would work too

And that didn’t work so that’s the fall of man and so much of his stuff, from the genetics/haplotypes stuff he used to push harder to the culture war he genteelly draws from now is aimed at building a justification to cut off the blacks as ballast so it can be his postwar utopia childhood again
