@St_Rev You are certainly strangely popular with people who profess the opposite of what you believe
@soapjackal @david_kenneth_d ...that there are tons of other ways noise infects communication. Hierarchy is one route to the death spiral.

@St_Rev@david_kenneth_d I really haven't seen the actual arguement for that assumption so I don't know -
@soapjackal@david_kenneth_d Which assumption? Hierarchy -> death spiral? I'd claim it's a (more accurate) version of Cthulhu Swims Left. -
“
@St_Rev: Which assumption? Hierarchy -> death spiral? I'd claim it's a (more accurate) version of Cthulhu Swims Left.” this is another -
@soapjackal If you're saying power differentials don't necessarily distort signals, that's empirical issue. w/o data we'll have to disagree. -
@St_Rev I'm saying that in human hierachary it's not necessarily non-trivial distortion. And that hops are more important than differential -
@soapjackal That would seem to be the intuition behind the idea of whistleblowing: one single hop across large power diff less distorting.
