You don't need to love them or agree with their views.

Let's check out some this Yarvin guy's views:

  • liberal democracy is a Matrix-like totalitarian system, it must be replaced with a "authoritarian technocratic monarchy" (that is, a monarchy headed by a dictatorial CEO)
  • He believes that this CEO-dictator should consolidate power and "fire all the bureaucrats", calling this movement "RAGE" (remove all government employees, yikes!)
  • he thinks that white people are inherently smarter than black people and supports eugenics
  • "Hitler only acted in self-defense!"
  • In response to the 2011 terrorist attacks by neo-Nazis in Norway, he critiqued them not because lots of people were killed, including children, but because "it would not be effective to overthrow Norway's communist government"
  • he's a supported of modern day slavery, and he believes that "some races are more suited to be slaves"
