Warrior or priest - every society is rule by one of those two. The hallmark of priestly epistemology is "whatever priestly authority states is the truth is the truth" - contrast with "take no one's word for it". Peer review is poison.https://twitter.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1191590770517540864 …

Wikipedia’s former strength is about to become a weakness: letting “reliable sources” proxy for truth.
Not having central authority tasked with responsibility for saying when activists at Nature, Cell, Science, CNN, NYT, Fox, NPR etc can be ignored is going to be a big problem.
