    Lmao what the fuck is “the cathedral” ???

    It's what Curtis "Mencius Moldbug" Yarvin and his "Dark Enlightenment" cryptofascists call pretty much anyone that is too "woke" for them, especially feeemales with colored hair.

      Right so it's a scareword for "anyone that isn't fascist" but with a particular subject matter being common as a result of their site being the spawn of gamergate.

      One where every single person can insert whatever meaning they want that appeals to themselves.

        It's covered in the sticky leftovers of Reddit New Atheism, too. "The Cathedral" was chosen as a name because of the euphoric implication that their hatred and cravings for power are logical and rational and that other ideologies are irrational to the point of being religious.
