Moldbug writes at insane length, and yet always very readably.
In that the individual sentences are well-formed. But these days, that’s not enough.
(I note that the Urbit manual shows him actually writing with conciseness and precision—so he can in fact do better, he just doesn’t want to—though the Urbit security document goes a bit Moldbug two-thirds of the way down.)
It could be a matter of taste. Neoreactionary writing may best be considered a species of poetry, art for its own sake.
