Every review and article has multiple typos and inaccuracies, and many are written by solipsistic 20something women. Why does this shitrag have any kind of reputation?

No I’m definitely an egoist but I don’t think I’m better than someone who is invested in presidential politics or whatever, I just don’t sympathize with them. The president has been only a figurehead since the Nixon days.

He at least flirts with nihilism all the time but yes tragically hip. I actually like the guy, but I still remember LOL’ing when he talked about how he wanted to bang girls out rough but all the bitches wanted tender lovey dovey stuff (not that sex or even love could possibly distract for long from the pointlessness of all things)

Ty man, I’m only human ya know.

Of course pessimism and nihilism are closely related, but the latter conjures up images of ruthless businessmen or nietzschean ubermensch. That’s not my bag. A lot of the discourse on xo about networths and “life in X city on Y salary” is more nihilistic than anything I’ve ever typed. But if we take “nihilism” to mean anti-life then yeah that suits me fine, but it doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy things or I want to take advantage of people or anything like that.

Modern journalism is a travesty afaik. You have Women going to college, majoring in "communications," and getting funneled into stuff like this. Because their brains are smaller they will toe whatever the ideological line is without blinking. They have no concept of integrity. They are not even shallow imho.

IMO it's basically been befallen by the same fate as other professions, namely teaching. The erstwhile schoolmarms and 120 IQ liberal artists of yesteryear have been replaced by Hot Girls, Loser Women, and like one Jock per school. By the same token, instead of Mike Wallace covering News and asking Tough Questions and such, you have URMs + Blonde Women on Fox News + Other Women + Chris Wallace (nepotism) + Tucker (token Prep). People (or at least the owners of the media) care more about Clique/phenotype/ideology than substance by far. By FAR.

Meanwhile some Loser submits Good Writing and a C.V. and they probably laugh in his face because there are Clique considerations at hand that supersede writing/journalism.... so that guy just gives up and self-teaches Engineering or works at J Crew. If some vestigial Gen-X Loser editor from the 90s starts talking about typos he probably gets summarily fired.

CXII was loser clique and he was Tucker’s main writer.

In other words, writers are loser clique. That’s where their talents get used by those in “presentable” cliques.

CharlesXII is like the greatest mind of his generation. And note he was working for Tucker and some niche website before that. Tucker is popular but he BECAME popular. He wasn't working for WSJ or NYT or what have you.

Yet but prep clique by “lineage” or image or whatever has access to jobs like that whereas losers like CXII even if more talented or deserving, will never have that role in society.

There used to be guys grinding it out at News Bureaus, chain smoking, doing Stories and nobody bothered them because in those times, liberal arts were taken somewhat seriously. Fascism and/or communism were real menaces and we didn't just give into things like we do now. We needed adult men to Curate current events through the lens of liberal arts. Men with gravitas and/or intellectual heft who could ask Tough Questions.

[upset jew esque line break]

Now we just whip entire generation(s) into submission, demand that all adult men run up some kind of tuition bill, self-teach Engineering, and/or become NEETs and take opiates. Liberal arts have become a joke because anyone worthwhile has been turned away; it's created a feedback loop of suckiness.

They tried to make a transition to long form journalism, but it feels like they just added words to short articles to make them longer. I read their articles and they just drag on and on without ever getting to the point, and providing no entertainment on the way there.
