Curtis Yarvin is a blogger from the Dark Enlightenment movement, who advocates for the position that democracy is a failed experiment that should be replaced with an accountable monarchy that mirrors the structure at the top of corporations. One of the main points of evidence for how democracy has failed is the emergence of science as a phenomenon of trust and power, where consensus is used as a cudgel to nudge and motivate the behavior of populations, downstream of a complex mixture of financial and personal incentives. We talk about the nature of this degradation, the burden of proof in a world that's one step short of a simulation, and the path our from the crisis we're in.
