I wouldn't say "right-winger" - he was apparently a "rationalist" aka gray tribe, a loose philosophy that places rational thinking above ideologies.

They are very right wing lol

Don't think so. "For the greater good" - heavily associated with left wing - is a rationalist take.

they are peter-thiel-style libertarians and "race realists", among the most extreme of the far right you can get. that very term "grey tribe" comes from an essay by scott alexander who consistently goes to bat for racist and fascist causes. there's nothing remotely left about them.

Greys are into eugenics, they’re weird.

The idea of being a 'rationalist' or 'realist' is literally almost always just one finding excuses to not call themselves nihilists

[–] technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Nihilist here. Nope.

[–] OmegaLemmy@discuss.online 1 points 2 years ago

Okay?

I was referring to those who acted nihilistic whilst calling themselves realists
