      Honduras does have bad institutions, institutions which in toto lead to effects its denizens wish to escape from. Why those institutions are bad, well, lol.

      No, the second to last sentence is clearly wrong. By any meaningful operationalization of "intelligence," Americans are, on average, more intelligent than Honduras.

      Yes, but reads "isn't because Americans are smarter", or X, or Y., which can be technically true: there are places with higher median IQs than the US where they are not fleeing to, for many reasons. The way to weasel out of this is by saying "yes, no one factor alone".

      You might be right about that being his intent but why bother reading Scott at that point. You can get "technically true but intentionally deceptive" from any number of mainstream sources like vox or NYT or WaPo.

      Scott will lie about this one thing, Vox et al will lie about 75% of the things they write

      Scott will lie about anything he has to to make sure that progressivism wins. On top of that he'll lie about whatever he's required to to stay in the good graces of his insanely far left Bay Area social circle.

      The failure mode of the social circle is more interesting and specific than "insanely far left". Compared to non-"rationalist" Berkeley, the circle is very good at free speech norms! You can argue for non-prog ideas! You just can't win or settle arguments in public. 1/4

      The culture is a weighted compromise between '90s/'aughts-strain liberalism, trying to be right about everything (per the "rationalist" branding), crimestop (over & above the '90s strain) to stay compliant, and—a consensus-management tech I don't have a name for? Not wokism. 2/4

      Scott looks more constained than others, and than he used to be, because he got too popular and his voice carries too much weight; he can't commit heresy as an individual anymore because the speech act would deal splash damage to "the community" ... 3/4

      which is a binding constraint because if influencing mainstream AI research in the coming decades is the most important thing in the universe, staying within the Overton window is strategically vital; savvy consequentialists unconditionally side with Power, nothing personal. 4/4

      Interesting parallel to the climate change people who support international Bolshevism to avoid the consequences of something that they don't understand that scared them. The "rationalists" have the same formula with "social acceptability" as the scary incomprehensible thing.

          Really though when you're casting about for excuses to support Bolshevism it's because you're a Bolshevik or a useful idiot.
