That just shows he got two easy questions right. When he spells out his general philosophy, which I had criticized before, you see just how anti-rational his epistemology is. You're just seeing a broken clock at noon.
By the way, anyone know if "Mencius Moldbug" is his real name? It sounds so fake.
He states that it's a pseudonym. (It's actually quite a clever one - unique, and conveys a lot about him.)
MM's name combines the pseudonyms he previously used as a commenter in two separate blogging realms (HBD and finance).
It's a pseudonym; he's said that himself, but I don't remember where.
I am about 80% confident that his real name is [redacted]
Publically revealing people trying to stay anonymous (though admittedly in his case, not very hard) is not very nice :P
