History will be written by the victors no longer. History will in fact not be written — it will be compiled, automatically. We are now firmly within meta-history. What does this mean?
It means that when you are having an internet fight over politics — questions of value and morality, or even of economics, whenever you are saying anything at all — “history” is not “written” by “whoever won the argument”. “History”, from now on, is which words you will write into a search engine to find the story later.
Example. James Damore. A limpwristed autistic nerd cumbrain who wrote a long autismo text deconstructing the formal claims of the intentionally irrational and ad-hoc mainstream beliefs google now requires you to claim allegiance to, in a naive, idiotic attempt to make sense of it all. He was literally, formally, objectively correct and spoke plainly and clearly. I’ve read his fucking stupid memo. It’s like, baby logic. Extremely simple, extremely stupid. But technically correct and logically sound. Giving him a grade in formal logic, he passes. it’s coherent and logically consistent.
But just now, when I couldn’t remember what his name was, because I wanted to write it into this article, the way I looked it up was by typing “google sexist memo controversy” into a search engine.
Do you understand? Do you see?
