      Eric Weinstein Retweeted MacArthur Foundation

      Welcome to the GIN (Gated Institutional Narrative): @macfound cites @NPR. @NPR cites @datasociety. @datasociety promotes @beccalew. And who is @beccalew? A judgmental activist who favors no-platforming people she disagrees with by using simple guilt by association. Game on.https://twitter.com/macfound/status/1044398832640053248 …

      The Gated Institutional Narrative is not something you can join as an individual. You have to sit in an institutional chair. This is how its magic works. The funny part about the narrative is that it would instantly collapse if it were not protected from challenge by individuals.

      So I issue a challenge: Dear @zephoria, @datasociety & @beccalew. I want to long-form platform you to boost your signal. Join me in explaining your methodology to the very folks you think are trapped in a reactionary echo chamber. That is if you’re serious of course. -ERW PhD

          @RubinReport @joerogan and @benshapiro @jordanbpeterson @SamHarrisOrg please consider issuing an invitation. As a Bernie voter, I’ll personally guarantee it will be civil, intellectual, and electrifying audio having nothing to do with right wing sentiments.

          "Reactionary," like "extreme" and now "alt" (which is suddenly a bad thing) is a word whose value is dependent on you not having any idea what it means. It may as well be an arrow with an angry face on it so you can point it at people who pissed you off today.

          Replying to @gunsofchekhovia @EricRWeinstein and

          Reactionary has a specific technical meaning. Think of the exact opposite of Sam Harris and Steven Pinker.

          Replying to @SeanPietz @EricRWeinstein and

          Of course it has a meaning. I'm saying that using it to scare and silence people, which is Lewis's goal, requires using it in such a way that it includes everyone she disagrees with.

          Eric, these people are from the social "sciences" trying to play data scientists. It's important to call them out on their sham credentials. We need to stop enabling these quacks.

          One has to be careful about guilt by association, but strictly speaking, community detection can be done without regard to the content shared by the community.

          Reactionary echo chambers are equivalent to meeting friends for a meal with many fine offerings but there is an unspoken yet cognizant recognition that there are 'appropriate' and 'inappropriate' items on the menu. My advice: Check the Chef's Specials...be u
