damn this guy had promise for a little while like four years ago

Yeah he used to be good up until around 2023 (especially about Ukraine War) but now he's into hypertriumphalist fall of capital, quoting Haz more than Marx and Lenin combined and projecting internet only presence into reality. I mean i wouldn't fucking expected a dude with so much media literacy to join the terminally online ACP grift but alas.

EDIT: Aaaand he finally went and lost it completely. RIP Rainer

It was clear he was on this path a couple years back, it just took him longer than expected to get there. He was writing some obviously bad faith shit for a long while.
