Yeah, I began losing interest in Greer as it became clear that he was perfectly happy squatting in the middle of the red-brown alliance during the Trump era. His critiques of industrialism and unquestioning belief in technological progress broadly align with what we discuss here, but he will always coddle MAHA types and tale a shrugging “well, what can ya do?” attitude towards people like Trump, as it fits his preference for cyclical theories of civilization. I noticed a couple months ago that he actually managed to dig Nick Land out of whatever tweaker den that guy’s been hiding in for a podcast, which says a lot about what he’s willing to indulge these days.

    I like to keep my analysis separate from my word-magic (making things happen by saying them). Greer is trying to remake the world and not just work up his courage which is a harmless and consensual form of word-magic.

    That Greer/Land crossover podcast is one of the funnier things I’ve listened to in a while, thanks for the ref, I guess I had missed it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-pcSez32-s if others are interested. Land opens with a Greer/Land yin-yang and we’re off the to races. Greer definitely brings up Spengler. Then Land starts talking about “Father Chad the Colorado Exorcist” and Greer is just yes-and-ing about the Solomonic tradition of binding demons. … Half way through, that’s enough for one sitting. Relatedly, C2C had a guy on talking about the singularity plus the bible. …iheart.com/…/2026-07-22-1100-the-best-of-coast-t… Seems like America is definitely getting ready for this stuff to cross over to the Left Behind crowd, I predict more Tucker segments. I’ll post some of the other guys I’ve found, digging into the “AI is actually the demonic spiritual energy of surviving nephilim” theory rn.
