Are You Trying to Seduce Elites?

I think conservatives are over reading their own rationality. What they're really reacting to is an aesthetic distaste for the people who hold the correct view that they have and an aesthetic taste for those who hold the incorrect view, right? I'm very acutely aware of that. And this is an area again where I think Curtis Yarvin has done a lot of work in talking about, you know, you need to bring over elites and be wonderfully appealing to elites because ultimately seducing elites is kind of how you move things. But at the same time, it's kind of weird to have a movement that is like so premised on kind of seeing reality as it is.
