Your definition of "Nazi" is "has the same beliefs about race and IQ as Scott but doesn't feel sufficiently guilty about it"
The guilt is functional! We're trying to rescue (https://arbital.greaterwrong.com/p/rescue_utility?l=3y6 …) our egalitarian axiology without lying in a universe where that value function has historically been supported by lies. It's a hard problem, okay?! http://unremediatedgender.space/2020/Apr/book-review-human-diversity/#schelling-point-for-preventing-group-conflicts …
>We're trying to rescue our egalitarian axiology Why?
Egalitarianism was good because it allowed a lot of people to cooperate. It worked for a while in the USA and to some extent in Europe too. Cooperation is fantastic.
Cooperation is the best thing but it works far better without egalitarianism and in fact the more consistently you apply egalitarianism the more cooperation breaks down. As Curtis Yarvin put it in one of his recent interviews (paraphrase) "every product is produced by a king"
"Egalitarian doctrines are generally characterized by the idea that all humans are equal in fundamental worth or moral status"https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egalitarianism …
In 18th Century France this was a useful idea as the ruling class had become essentially lazy parasites. Napoleonic France was more efficient; officers in the army were promoted on merit rather than bloodlines etc.
18th century France had a revolt *by* the ruling class, not against it; the problem there was that the King empowered the bureaucrats at the expense of the nobles whom he considered rivals - the bureaucrats didn't need the King, the nobles did.
Napoleon takes the powerful forces that were unleashed and wrecking the country and expends them by turning them outward.
