Humor/enlighten a literal-minded old-timer: this Vack guy set up a whole fascist humiliation ritual. Why’d you let him do this stupid “we’re not so different, you and I, routine?” If I understand the commitments one takes on when one publicly calls themselves a communist and another a fascist, wouldn’t the appropriate response be to hit him? Or if you don’t want assault charges — he seems like the snitch type — to at least tell him and his bullshit sister to fuck off? He’s not Celine. He’s not contributing anything to the arts. Why give him that much?

wow this “crumps music” sounds quite promising. i wonder if anyone is planning a boat party at which music along these lines will be prominently featured, perhaps someone mentioned in the article

Despite—or perhaps because of—the fact that I’m here in New York, I’m still not thoroughly convinced that any of these people actually exist.

I’m not sure if this is a credit or a demerit to Mr. Crumplar’s writing.

The Crumps character is so fascinating. We're supposed to believe that you're ideological enemies of the people who's parties you go to, who you are on a cordial first name basis with, on whom your livelihood and relevance depend? Just seems an extraordinary feat of self deception to be in such proximity to figures like moldbug, and cultural detritus like the angelicism thing, and tell yourself that you are not essentially of a kind with them. Same goes for Charlie lol, "taking down dimes square with spontaneous acts of situationist terrorism" seems like it translates pretty directly to "cryptoironically participating in the scene while putting myself on a moral pedestal". All of you people need real jobs
