Curtis Yarvin: The Dark Enlightenment and Humane Genocide

Curtis Yarvin: The Dark Enlightenment and Humane Genocide

Author: Jamie Peck and Sam Beard January 20, 2025 Duration: 1:50:29

Half of this episode was behind the paywall but in honor of Curtis Yarvin, Mencius Moldbug himself, calling for the end of Democracy in The New York Times (at least he didn't bring up his "human alternative to genocide") we're making this ep free for everybody. Also it was before we were recording video so please enjoy this visual of a waveform.

This episode was recorded on 07/30/24.

00:00:00 - Kate Willet's on the show to tell us about technofascism

01:18:42 - This is where the stuff that was paywalled before starts

Comedian and podcaster Kate Willett joins Jamie Peck and Sam Beard for a wide-ranging discussion of the San Francisco tech milieu that anointed JD Vance as Donald Trump's VP pick. Unlike the old school robber barons, the tech capitalists of today want more than money; they want to be gods. Via labor arbitrage, political meddling, and even seemingly innocuous ideas like "smart cities," figures like Peter Thiel, Curtis Yarvin, David Sacks, and Bilaji Srinivasan seek to immiserate the average person, dismantle the government and bring about an anarcho-capitalist dystopia ruled by neo-feudal warlords. But hey, at least they're never going to beat the couch fucking charges.

Hosted by Jamie Peck and Sam Beard, Party Girls is a conversation that blends sharp political analysis with the intimate, connective tissue of gossip. Jamie, known for her work on The Majority Report and other leftist commentary, teams up with Sam, a Chicago-based organizer, to create a space where theory meets the messy reality of daily life. The discussions here aren't dry lectures; they're lively, often funny, and deeply human, weaving together perspectives from news, music, and culture through a specific lens. You'll hear them dissect current events and political structures with the same earnest curiosity they apply to sharing stories and personal reflections. This podcast operates on the idea that the personal is political and the political can be surprisingly personal, finding the threads of collective struggle and joy in unexpected places. It’s a mix of thoughtful critique and casual, comedic rapport that makes complex ideas feel accessible and urgent. Tune in for a unique fusion of perspectives that challenges how we think about community, power, and the stories we tell each other.
