Well it's a Motteposter, and there's a bunch of them on r/Drama. On here, ArachnoLibrarian seems like the most obvious one, but others might be lurking too, or I just didn't notice them.

Actually I'm wrong, u/TracingWoodgrains is the writer and a TheMotte mod, and I don't believe he was ever a dramaposter.

TracingWoodgrains is a good person but the opposite of a dramaposter, he made r/TheSchism because he couldn't tolerate certain kinds of wrongthink on r/themotte.

I feel very out of the loop.

What is a Motteposter? I feel like this is ubiquitous among dramatards and I've somehow missed it. I looked on the sub AnarchoLibrarian linked and it's just words words words and seriousposting.

The Motte is a name of a sub. It's populated by "rationalists". It's a strange sphere mostly popularized by Scott Alexander who runs Slate Star Codex. Their whole shtick is trying to do rational analysis, with data when possible, try to drop emotions and partisanship. They're not homogenous when it comes to ideology but most of them could vaguely fit into some kind of libertarian/free market liberal umbrella, though I believe you'll find some progressive centrists and even white nationalists in there.

I appreciate their way of thinking and analyzing, but they're too influenced by technocratic west coast libertarianism in my opinion.
