Stefan Molyneaux and I consider the question.
Just as Mike Cernovich is killing it on Twitter, Stefan is the king of the YouTube/podcast interview. He mentioned that our last conversation had 250,000 downloads. The Alt-Right may be the mainstream story du jour, but the real story is the way the Alt-Media is beginning to flex its muscle. I turned down five media requests in the last three days, but I’m always happy to make time for Stefan.
Stefan Molyneux and I discuss the dyscivilizational cultural programming increasingly prevalent in advertising and the entertainment media.
An interview with the Writers with Courage podcast, nominally entitled “Vox Drops Outdated Names From the 1980s“. It may help put in perspective my relaxed attitude towards the gatekeepers’ determination to deny me a platform.
It’s also available on iTunes.
Just in case you’ve got nearly two hours to kill. We go into art, literature, culture, politics, you name it. Castalia fans will be interested to hear me name-drop one of our new authors we have not yet announced.
Cynic-in-Chief, the author of the SJW List, and I were guests on Red Ice Radio.
A livestream featuring an interview with the chief architect of The Complete List of SJW.
In which Chuck Tingle, author of the Hugo-nominated “Space Raptor Butt Invasion”, is interviewed about his work being honored.
How did you find out you were nominated for a Hugo?
Got an email from some hot shot big timer said “hey Chuck we’ve got an award for you you want it?” I said “yes.” They said “Well okay Chuck here you go.” So thats how it happened it was a good day. Son even took me out for a big spaghetti dinner and I didn’t even spill, got two plates and a big glass of chocolate milk that’s the way the cookie crumbles.
Were you surprised?
Well not really, because I know that love is real and when you write that love is real the world makes proof. This is the way that science works and is the true billings reality. So I always knew this layer of Tingleverse would prove love is real. I just didn’t know how and then when it happened, I remembered that that is why. Can’t wait to win big time award and put it in the window so Ted Cobbler sees it and feels like a big dumb idiot. He’s gonna look so dumb.
Do you know about the Sad Puppies, a group of people who try to disrupt voting for the Hugo Awards every year?
Don’t know about any puppies but it’s BAD NEWS BEARS if you want to disrupt awards. That is a scoundrel tactic and probably part of Ted Cobbler’s devilman plan. Ted Cobbler is notorious devil and has been seen using dark magic to control puppies around the neighborhood. I do not support the devilman agenda but i think that Space Raptor Butt Invasion proves that LOVE IS REAL and no scoundrels can stop that. Especially not some dumb dogs.
Do you have any comments about the speculation that you might be involved this year?
Well speculation is a good word. I can comment on that because it means knowing something is going to happen like with a spell to see the future. So thats an important spell if you want to battle devilmen like Ted cobbler or Truckman. If I had specilation spell when I battled Truckman I probably wouldn’t have had to go to the hospital with a tummy ache.
Love is real. The man is a philosopher. I think this settles the question of whether diversity is good for science fiction or not once and for all.
UPDATE: You will NOT want to miss Dr. Tingle’s Reddit AMA, which features questions from Phil Sandifer and Mary Pupinette.
Louise Mensch of Heat Street interviewed me about the Hugos, Donald Trump, the SJW List, and other matters:
Interview: The Rabid Puppies And Vox Day Bite the Hugo Awards
Tell me about the Hugo Awards. Are the Sad Puppies still sad?
The Sad Puppies are, to all intents and purposes, irrelevant. They have been replaced by the Rabid Puppies, mostly thanks to the egregiously obnoxious behavior of the SJWs in science fiction at the 2015 Hugo Awards ceremony. That converted most of the Sad Puppies to Rabid Puppies, which is why the Rabid Puppies accounted for
6264 shortlist nominations of the 80 we recommended this year. The SF-SJWs said they were sending a message last year, and the message we heard was “bring more Puppies”. So we did.You were nominated for Best Editor and SJWs Always Lie was nominated for Best Related Work. Congratulations!
Thank you so much. But the two nominations I’m most pleased about are Jerry Pournelle’s long-overdue Best Editor nomination for his There Will Be War series, and, of course, Chuck Tingle’s “Space Raptor Butt Invasion”. We’re taking diversity in science fiction to a whole new level there.

I was impressed with how well these guys know their economics. It was also interesting to see how they clearly understood the difference between the various European nationalisms and white nationalism.
Or, as it happens, to the Supreme Dark Lord. This is the controversial interview that The Huffington Post found too hot to handle.
I have written on Political Correctness and the need for civil discourse.
For my next look at the culture wars, I talked to controversial alt-right figure Vox Day: game designer, science fiction author, and Amazon-bestselling political philosopher, who some claim to be an inspiration for Donald Trump’s No Apologies strategy.
He’s written about taking the vote away from women, blamed the lack of woman science fiction writers on poor science education in universities, been involved in #Gamergate and disrupted the venerable Hugo science fiction awards, among other things.
He’s been a regular target of feminists, social justice warriors and left-wing activists. For all that, it is hard to know how seriously he takes some of his positions and how much he is angling for a reaction. I asked Vox that we don’t get into personal attacks. Let’s pretend we’re at a Sunday picnic with nice people.
Vox, thanks for joining me. Can you tell us how you came to be a well-known opponent of the social justice left?
It was initially the result of ideological opposition within the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America to my nationally syndicated column, specifically one I wrote concerning an attack by Susan Estrich on Michael Kinsley.You were called a misogynist, racist, anti-Semite. It got very heated.
It did. Before long, multiple writers at The Guardian were writing articles about what a terrible, awful, very bad person I am. Media outlets from NPR to the New Zealand Herald were joining in the fun. All that did was introduce me to new readers and turn my little blog into a juggernaut.
You say a lot of things that seem outrageous. To what extent are you winding people up?
Not at all. Everything I advocate has a solid basis in science, reason, and history. I find that it is mostly my tone of open contempt for my intellectual inferiors that tends to upset them.
As Mike Cernovich and Milo Yiannopoulos have repeatedly shown, the big SJW-converged sites can try to no-platform the Alt-Right, but all that accomplishes is to cause people to abandon those platforms and go in search of more compelling content and more interesting characters.
And sometimes, they even seek the truth.
