How would you know if this belief were false? (I have come to believe it is)

The rationality community definitely isn't perfect, but it's really, really good. Rationalists are one of the few groups that are both really smart and actively practice looking past their own ego to find truth. I can't express how much beaming appreciation I have for this.

Rationalist techniques are distinct from the community/tribe though.
