Yeah he must have been disseminating ideas among powerful people which at least had the effect of normalising them. Another big question is the extent to which he was supplying info to Russia/Israel/whoever. Because his whole thing looks like a massive kompromat production line.

What it lacks is an answer to the question it half-poses: was he actually influencing the world order and if so, how much? I suppose that’s the sort of thing that could take a long time to really get a handle on.

Oh yeah clearly JBP’s tweet was real but it wasn’t quoting a post about Elmo

In 2024 he called Elmo “a horrible whiny puppet”, everything else has been fake

Firstly, that’s not true. I googled it earlier.
Second, no he hasn’t. Any you have seen are fake.

They weren’t eliminated from the gene pool, that’s not exactly what I meant when I said a society persisting into the present

Also you need to have continuity of the dispossessed people/society right? Nobody cares that the Celts displaced a Neolithic people because the Neolithic people aren’t here.

Google it!

It’s fake

If I say “I cannot be certain that I’m not the only real person in a world of robots” and you take that to mean I am calling you specifically a robot, that’s not a reasonable reaction
