      I had been peripherally aware of LW through a few fanfic pieces, and was directed to SSC via the LessWrong comments section it was the most intimidating community of people I had ever encountered -- I didn't think I could keep up

      but eventually, I realized that not only was this the first group of people who made me feel like I had come *home,* but that it was also one of the most welcoming places I'd ever been (IRL or virtual)

      I joined a slack, "rationalist" tumblr, made a few comments on LW and SSC within a few months, I had *friends* some of whom I would eventually count among those I love the most

      this is a community that takes ideas seriously (even when it would be better for their sanity to disengage) this is a community that thinks everyone who can engage with them in sincere good faith might have something useful to say

      this is a community that saw someone writing long, in-depth critiques on the material produced on or adjacent to LW/SSC...and decided that meant he was a friend. I have no prestigious credentials to speak of. I had no connections, was a college dropout, no high-paying job

      I had no particular expertise, a lower-class background than many of the people I met, a Red-Tribe-Evangelical upbringing and all I had to do, to make these new friends, was show up and join the conversation

      I’m genuinely happy for you and I’m glad that you found it an inclusive community as a woman. That said, I’m also 100% sure you are white. Really wonder what your experience with SSC would have been like if you weren’t. I’d encourage you to examine the racism in SSC more closely

      some assholes are there, yes, but have you read the content of themotte? very little of it is bigoted. it's mainly a containment zone for topics that incite controversy most of those topics are not about race. suggest sorting by top: this month, to see the actual posts

      Also the second highest comment on the BLM mega thread in /r/themotte is someone uncritically quoting an article by far right “journalist” Andy Ngo. I can’t tell if you’re blind to this because it doesn’t impinge on you or whether you think this is okay. Seriously wtfpic.twitter.com/EfocK6fcpU

      pseudoanonymity: having a conversation online with someone who's avi is goat's butt, ceo of Conversation Industrial Complex called @RiotAtArbys, a "paid shill for sneerclub", who's presenting a comment on a linked subreddit as a reason to think someone is bad. I refuse!

          blocked this guy for now. i do not think we're going to have productive discussion in the heat of this. the volume as increasing and the arguments were getting more ridiculous and accusatory. big asymmetries. the conversation needed a new structure, one, imo, without this.
