Love him or hate him, it's hard to be politically literate nowadays without having read Moldbug's 'Unqualified Reservations'.

I think that is actually his weakest point. Like education researchers trying to find ONE WEIRD TRICK to improve outcomes, missing the fact that good schools are purely a function of smart kids. My tweet from earlier in the thread: https://twitter.com/nicestnisus/status/1031843758919299072?s=19 …

The myth of “good schools” is one of my favorite examples, too. But could schooling be better for below-average kids? Could Congo be better-run than it is today? Moldbug’s goal is to do the best we can with the hominid as he is, which means fixing engineering flaws in government.
